seven days of sansa stark: day two
a sansa stark fanmix: i have weathered the storm
______
the album leaf ~ WISHFUL THINKING (1)
(they were wrong, she thinks
my life turned out to be a song after all.)
lisa germano ~ FROM A SHELL (2)
and the earth spins round
while the people fall down
and the world stands still
not a sound, not a sound.
fleet foxes ~ HELPLESSNESS BLUES (3)
i was raised up believing
i was somehow unique
like a snowflake, distinct among snowflakes,
unique in each way you can see.
what's my name; what's my station?
oh, please tell me what i should do.
i don't need to be kind to the armies of man
that would do such injustice
to you.
or sit down and be grateful and say,
"sure, take all that you see,"
to the men who walk only in dimly lit halls and determine my future for me.
oh, i don't, i don't know who to believe.
metric ~ HELP, I'M ALIVE (4)
i tremble
they're going to eat me alive
if i stumble
they're going to eat me alive
can you hear my heart beating like a hammer?
beating like a hammer?
tori amos ~ CRUCIFY (5)
every finger in the room
is pointing at me
i wanna spit in their faces
then i get afraid of what that could bring.
the frames ~ SAD SONGS (6)
it's a war that can't be won
with fists or talk or money
and there's no escape
but i'd better stop complaining now
i guess because:
too many sad words make a sad, sad song
too many sad words make a sad, sad song.
shivaree ~ LITTLE BLACK MESS (7)
looking for signs
i can't see here in the dark
i'll play my part
and say never ever again
then cross my heart
cry until you say when
it's true i'm sure to die out here unless
you come get me out of
this little black mess.
(8) THE STORM ~ boy and bear
'cause i can see it in your hands
that you're not a fighter, but you've had your dance before.
so you'll keep the world at bay, keep your secrets and your scars.
but you've been weathering the storm
and it's been blowing hard.
(9) TIME OF THE ASSASSINS ~ charlotte gainsbourg
i open the wound
that keeps me in line
the shoulder that turns
the flame that goes out
the chapter i close
and can something change
but still feel the same?
(10) BIRDS ~ emiliana torrini
let's stay awake and listen to the dark,
before the birds, before they all wake up.
it's the ending of a play and soon begins another.
hear the leaves applaud the wind.
see the sun come rising and white-wings start to fly
like strings of pearls in the firey sky
i don't want to close my eyes, don't want to leave the stage now,
as the leaves applaud our stay.
lend me yours wings and teach me how to fly
show me when it rains, the place you go to hide
and the curtains draw again and bow - another day ends
the leaves applaud the wind.
(11) THE WOLVES (ACT I & II) ~ bon iver
someday my pain, someday my pain
will mark you
harness your blame, harness your blame
and walk through
with the wild wolves around you
in the morning, i'll call you
send it farther on.
(12) HERO ~ regina spektor
i'm the hero of the story
don't need to be saved.
(13) QUEENS WILL PLAY ~ black mountain
we've all seen tomorrow
and there's truth to what they say
demons may be hiding in our shadows
let your time shine
queens will play.
(14) FLOATING HOME ~ mick karn
(coming back to winterfell, sansa stark
the queen in the north.)
