Rating: PG
Warnings: None
Summary: A film noir themed mix for Victor Henriksen, the fed, and Bela Talbot, the femme fatale.
Disclaimer: Don't own anything. So there.
Notes: One of two gifts for
familiardevil! I know this probably isn't anything like what you expected to get, and I'm really nervous that you won't like it (which is why you're getting something else more...conventional), but I wanted to give you some Bela/Henriksen and this wouldn't leave me alone. There's no firm storyline to it, but if you pay attention to the lyrics, Lilith is hovering somewhere in the background in an ever so ominous way.

Closer // Kings of Leon
stranded in the spooky town
stop lights are swaying and the phone lines are down
the floor is crackling cold
she took my heart, I think, she took my soul
with the moon I run
far from the carnage of the fiery sun
[...]
your shimmy shook my bones
leaving me stranded all in love on my own
do you think of me?
where am I now, baby, where do I sleep?
it feels so good but I am old
two hundred years of chasing taking its toll
and it's coming closer

Love For Sale // Ella Fitzgerald
when the only sound in the empty street
is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
that belongs to a lonesome cop
I open shop
when the moon so long has been gazing down
on the wayward ways of this wayward town
that her smile becomes a smirk
I go to work
love for sale, appetizing young love for sale
love that's fresh and still unspoiled
love that's only slightly spoiled
love for sale
who will buy
who would like to sample my supply
who's prepared to pay the price
for a trip to paradise
love for sale
let the poets pipe of love
in their childish way
I know every type of love
better far than they
if you want the trill of love
I've been through the mill of love,
old love, new love
every love but true love
love for sale

Eyes On Fire // Blue Foundation
I'm taking it slow
feeding my flame
shuffling the cards of your game
and just in time
in the right place
suddenly I will play my ace
I won't soothe your pain
I won't ease your strain
you've been waiting in vain
I've got nothing for you to gain
eyes on fire
your spine is ablaze
felling any foe with my gaze
and just in time
in the right place
steadily emerging with grace
[4]
Mouth // Bush
you gave me this
made me give
your silver grin
still sticking it in
you have some machine
soul machine
the longest kiss
peeling furniture day
drift madly to you
pollute my heart
drain

This Masquerade // George Benson
are we really happy here
with this lonely game we play
looking for words to say?
searching
but not finding understanding anyway
we're lost in a masquerade
both afraid to say
we're just too far away
from being close together from the start
we tried to talk it over
but the words got in the way
we're lost inside this lonely game we play
thoughts of leaving disappear
every time I see your eyes
no matter how hard I try
to understand the reasons
that we carry on this way
we're lost in this masquerade
both afraid to say
we're just too far away
from being close together from the start
we tried to talk it over
but the words got in the way
we're lost inside this lonely game we play
thoughts of leaving disappear
every time I see your eyes
no matter how hard I try
to understand the reasons
that we carry on this way
we're lost in this masquerade

Smoke Gets In Your Eyes // Dinah Washington
they said someday you'll find
all who love are blind
oh, when your heart's on fire
you must realize
smoke gets in your eyes
[7]
Devil Song // Beth Orton
when the devil comes blowing through your door
you'll know there's trouble, and he's coming back for more
you better keep what is precious hidden under the floor
or you better treat it so good it will never want for more
but looking back in retrospect
did you ever really get what you'd expect?
trying to rectify
got lost a little further
you've been trying to justify
find out how and where it came
devil was your angel, but it's not no more
the devil was your angel, when you weren't sure
do I tempt trouble to break through all these doors
just to put a face to the voice which always home
to fight for what is precious, to know what's under the floor
if I could treat it so good, I swear I'd never want for more
but when I found my peace
there was still mistakes
however painfully aware every step I take
trying to rectify
got lost a little further
well, I've been trying to justify
find out how and where it came
the devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure.
to travel as my angel there's always my whore
gonna take you back down
I won't feel no shame
til my dreams
are my own again
gonna take you right down, and I'll take the blame
til my dreams are my own again
here I am again
devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure
to travel as my angel there's always my whore
maybe you're an angel, tried to remember you're an angel
remember you're an angel, if you're not sure

Get Out of Town // Ella Fitzgerald
get out of town
before its too late my love
get out of town
be good to me please
why wish me harm
why not retire to a farm
and be contented to charm
the birds off the trees
just disappear
I care for you much too much
and when you're near, close to me dear
we touch too much
the thrill when we meet is so bittersweet
that darling, its getting me down
so on your mark get set
get out of town
[9]
I'm A Fool To Want You // Frank Sinatra
I'm a fool to want you
I'm a fool to want you
to want a love that can't be true
a love that's there for others too
I'm a fool to hold you
such a fool to hold you
to seek a kiss not mine alone
to share a kiss that Devil has known
time and time again I said I'd leave you
time and time again I went away
but then would come the time when I would need you
and once again these words I had to say
take me back, I love you
...I need you
I know it's wrong, it must be wrong
but right or wrong I can't get along
without you
