Rebuild All Your Ruins
Another fanmix for the Steampunk Nation RP. This one is for Marlowe Mordecai, a Republican turned Russian turned, well, country-less.
"Old Machine" -- Dustin Martin
I see it breaking with every new day,
gears slipping, wood splitting away;
it can't keep up with this new scene.
The world's forgetting the old machine.
For so long it's run our world,
fired our lives and left us cold.
Hate and fear are losing steam,
such vital parts of the old machine.
"Carnival of the Animals: VII. Aquarium" -- Barry Wordsworth and the London Symphony Orchestra
[Instrumental]
"House of Wolves" -- My Chemical Romance
Well, I know a thing about contrition,
because I got enough to spare.
And I'll be granting your permission,
'cause you haven't got a prayer.
Well I said hey, hey hallelujah,
I'm gonna come on sing the praise.
And let the spirit come on through ya;
we got innocence for days!
Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave;
tell me I'm a bad man, kick me like a stray.
"Supermassive Black Hole" -- Muse
Oh baby, don't you know I suffer?
Oh baby, can you hear me moan?
You caught me under false pretenses;
how long before you let me go?
Glaciers melting in the dead of night
and the superstars sucked into the supermassive.
I thought I was a fool for no-one;
oh baby, I'm a fool for you.
You're the queen of the superficial-
and how long before you tell the truth?
"String Quartet No. 3 in F Major" -- Emerson String Quartet
[Instrumental]
"Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off" -- Panic! At The Disco
Is it still me that makes you sweat?
Am I who you think about in bed?
When the lights are dim and your hands are shaking as you're sliding off your dress?
Then think of what you did and how I hope to god he was worth it
when the lights are dim and your heart is racing as your fingers touch his skin.
I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck
than any boy you'll ever meet, sweetie you had me.
Girl I was it, look past the sweat, a better love deserving of
exchanging body heat in the passenger seat?
No, no, no, you know it will always just be me.
"Immigrant Song" -- Led Zeppelin
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft; your fields so green can whisper tales of gore,
of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.
On we sweep with threshing oar, our only goal will be the western shore.
So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins...
"Something" -- Jim Sturgess
Something in the way she moves
attracts me like no other lover;
something in the way she woos me.
I don't want to leave her now,
you know I believe, and how.
"Vertigo" -- U2
Hello, hello...
I'm at a place called Vertigo:
it’s everything I wish I didn’t know,
except you give me something
I can feel.
