The Hunger Games fanmix: My Kingdom For A Lullaby
Title: My Kingdom For A Lullaby
Subject: Rue + Katniss
Length: 9 tracks
Summary: "It means thanks, it means admiration. It means goodbye."
Notes: Made for waywardmixes Round Three Theme: Quotes. This mix made possible by neuxue and her unending patience with all my bitching and moaning. I'd say canonization is imminent, except it totally isn't :P
"It means thanks, it means admiration. It means goodbye."
One. Winning - Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton
don’t even visit that place
they’ll sharpen their teeth on your smile
I’m glad you didn’t
all our songs will be lullabies in no time
what’s bad? what’s wrong? we’ll make it alright
alright, it’s gone, so long
we’ve got time, all the time
we’ve got all the time
Two. My Baby Needs A Shepherd - Emmylou Harris
my baby needs an angel, she never learned to fly
she’ll not reach sanctuary just by looking to the sky
I guess I could have carried her but I didn’t even try
my baby needs an angel, she never learned to fly
toora loora loora lo, to the cradle come the crow
toora loora loora li, my kingdom for a lullaby
Three. Asleep - Emily Browning
sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep
I don’t want to wake up on my own anymore
sing to me, sing to me
I don’t want to wake up on my own anymore
oh, there is another world
oh, there is a better world
there must be
oh, sing me to sleep
Four. Lullaby For A Stormy Night - Vienna Teng
you know, once even I was a little child and I was afraid
but a gentle someone always came to dry all my tears
trade sweet sleep for fears and to give a kiss goodnight
well now I am grown and these days have shown rain’s a part of how life goes
but it’s dark and it’s late so I’ll hold you and wait ‘til your frightened eyes do close
everything fine in the morning, the rain will be gone in the morning
but I’ll still be here in the morning
Five. Safe & Sound - Taylor Swift feat.The Civil Wars
I remember you said, "don't leave me here alone"
but all that's dead and gone and passed tonight
don't you dare look out your window darling everything's on fire
the war outside our door keeps raging on
hold on to this lullaby even when the music's gone
just close your eyes, the sun is going down
you'll be alright, no one can hurt you now
come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound
you and I’ll be safe and sound
Six. Sweet Chariot - Charlotte Martin
the sky's bleeding gray
now I pull my bag o' prayers out, I hope to find one to save the day
sweet chariot, come, come take me away from my fear
sweet chariot, come, I have to get out of here
Seven. Rue’s Farewell - James Newton Howard
[instrumental]
Eight. Swing Low, Sweet Chariot - Les Paul and Mary Ford
and I looked over yonder and what did I see
coming for to carry me home?
saw a band, a band of angels, it was a-comin’ for me
coming for to carry me home
swing low, swing low, sweet chariot
coming for to carry me home
swing low, swing low, sweet chariot
coming for to carry me home
coming for to carry me home
Nine. Blackbird - Sarah McLachlan
blackbird singing in the dead of night
take these broken wings and learn to fly
all your life you were only waiting for this moment to arise
blackbird fly, blackbird fly
into the light of a dark black night
you were only waiting for this moment to arise
you were only waiting for this moment to arise
