Naruto; i won't let you go (you can't stop me)
A Naruto AU mix; in which Naruto is the missing nin after the Retreival Arc, instead of Sasuke.
NO LEAF CLOVER metallica
And it feels right this time
On this crash course with the big time
Pay no mind to the distant thunder
New day fills his head with wonder, boy
[...]
Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
He should've known it
was be too good to be true;
too many things were going right,
going perfectly.
He's always been the poster child for Murphy's Law.
WASTE staind
How could you paint this picture?
Was life as bad as it should seem
That there were no more options for you?
I can't explain how I feel
I've been there many times before
I've tasted the cold steel of my life crashing down before me
But these words
They can't replace
The life you
The life you waste
How did this happen?
How could he do this to her?
To him?
PUSHING ME AWAY linkin park
(Everything falls apart, even the people who never frown eventually break down)
The sacrifice of hiding in a lie
(Everything has to end, you'll soon find we're out of time left to watch it all unwind)
The sacrifice is never knowing
Why I never walked away
Why I played myself this way
Now I see your testing me pushes me away
All he's ever wanted
was to be his friend,
and make him smile again.
Maybe he tried too hard.
... Maybe he didn't try enough.
HELL disturbed
And I can't condone the way you left me out in the open
To leave me to die!
So how can I forget the way you led me through the path into Heaven
To leave me behind!
[...]
Free me tonight, lest the animal, caged, be a terror upon you,
Caught in the moment, engaging in my
Bloodlust tonight, now I can't control my venom's flow.
Get back from me demon, or be exorcised!
'My games with the Leaf are over.'
Sasuke...
'I intend to kill you... My most precious friend.'
Wake up...
'You are nothing!'
Sasuke...?
bloodpainhotburnhurthurthurtHURTHURT!!!!!
SAVIOR skillet
I'm everything you've wanted
I am the one who's haunting you
I am the eyes inside of you
Stare back at you
There's nothing left to lose
There's nothing left to prove
Surrender your love
It's all you can do, yeah
What you got
What you want
What you need
Gonna be your savior
Everything's gonna crash and break
Kyuubi's chakra screams betrayal,
burnt black, blood red and pain.
The hole in his chest sizzles,
flesh and bone and blood and-
perfect again.
But Naruto's gone,
and the demon is there to catch him as he falls.
STAND MY GROUND within temptation
Though this might just be the ending
Of the life I held so dear
But I won't run
There's no turning back from here
Stand my ground
I won't give in
No more denying
I gotta face it
Won't close my eyes
And hide the truth inside
If I don't make it, someone else will
When he comes to,
he's miles away.
There's blood under his nails,
the scent of it thick on his tongue.
He's alive,
and his eyes bleed crimson as he looks to the east.
Never again.
SAVIN' ME nickelback
Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me
It's all his fault.
They don't even have to say it,
because he says it to himself
every day, every hour that Naruto is gone.
His eyes are open now,
but it's too late.
Always too late.
FALLS APART hurt
And I don't feel the need to go on
I was happier singing along the way
I had things I needed to say
But now it's like a swallowed tape
That holds up my face from inside
as everything just falls apart
'Cause everything just fell apart for me
I cracked my head and broke my
I cracked my head and broke my
I cracked my head and broke my heart
Obito. Rin. Minato-sensei.
Naruto.
His failures haunt him worse than any ghost.
They're like his team all over again,
brooding genius, cheerful fangirl and
the smiling fool that nobody wanted.
Somehow losing him like this
hurts more than if he was dead.
RUSTED FROM THE RAIN billy talent
Dissect me till my blood runs
Down into the drain
My bitter heart is pumping
Oil into my veins
I'm nothing but a tin man
Don't feel any pain
I don't feel any pain
I don't feel any pain
I'm rusted from the rain
Go on, crush me like a flower
Rusted from the rain
Come on, strip me of my power
Beat me with your chains
And if I'm the king of cowards
You're the queen of pain
I'm rusted from the rain
I'm rusted from the rain
She doesn't notice it at first;
after all, he was just a dead last,
and it wasn't her fault he ran off.
Just Naruto, and she's got Sasuke-kun to worry about.
But in the weeks and months afterwards,
when he doesn't come home,
she starts to realize,
dark and horrible and inescapable.
He's gone.
He's not coming back.
She doesn't know why that makes her feel so guilty.
SYMBOLISTIC WHITE WALLS matthew goodband
I'm tired of blood and over priced bubble gum, mom
nobody wake up there's nothing you could have done wrong
I'm wearing the same grin, I take it all on the chin
I still believe everythin' that I read
and sometimes it's hard, sometimes it's harder
sometimes it's on sale, sometimes it never fails
Well, I have a psychic and she says I'm lonely
she says my destiny is turning out all wrong
so now I just sit here
and think of meaningful things to say
[...]
It's all right now
take the world and make it yours again
“I'm going to be Hokage!”
Stupid brat.
She came back for him.
Not for the piece of shit village,
not for Jiraiya;
not even for Nawaki and Dan.
She doesn't know why she bothers,
but she won't leave;
not until he comes home.
MOMMA SED puscifer
Momma said like the rain
(this too shall pass)
like a kidney stone
(this too shall pass)
It's just a broken heart, son.
This pain will pass away.
He gave up on Orochimaru,
but he'll be damned
if he gives up on Minato's kid.
He'll chase him to the ends of the earth if he has to,
because the brat's too damn naive
and somebody has to keep him alive
until he's ready to go home.
LISTEN, DO YOU SMELL SOMETHING? four year strong
Let's hit the road, and hit it hard.
'Cause the season is changing.
We're falling apart.
But how far can we make it
before it's time for us to wake up?
You say it's not over.
You think that you know how far we have to go
before we're right back where we started.
[...]
It's a great day to be alive.
You know, it's just like I can breathe for the first time.
I finally had enough and things are looking up.
We might actually survive.
Ero-sennin hates seeing him like this,
but he can't really talk since he's running too.
Out here on the road,
he can forget about Konoha,
and Kakashi and Sakura and--
He can forget, and that's all that matters.
DEATH OF ME red
How can you end my affliction,
If you're the sickness and I'm the cure?
Too long I've faked this addiction
Another sacrifice to make us pure
You tear me down and then you pick me up
You take it all and still it's not enough
You try to tell me you can heal me
But I'm still bleeding, and you'll be
The death of me
It's been three years,
but the sight of him still burns
like salt in a wound.
He'll apologize for leaving Ero-sennin behind later.
SCARS IN THE MAKING fuel
Every memory that I hold
Were all just scars in the making
And all the things we can't let go
Were all just scars in the making
He doesn't know what he expected,
but this wasn't it.
He wasn't supposed to run away again,
eyes full of pain and betrayal,
as if the fight at the Valley had been yesterday
instead of three years ago.
It wasn't supposed to be this way!
BOULDERS new found glory
what of the bonds we've made
that have started to fade
we can't control the time
but right now I'll take what I can get out of my life
[...]
I never said that I didn't need you
put down your arms
and wrap them both right around me
(both) right around me
You'd think they'd get the point by now.
He left because they didn't want him,
and there's no way he's going back to a place that hates him.
He figured he'd made that clear enough
the first time he sent them running,
nursing broken bones and licking their wounds.
So why-?
Why won't they go away?
STILL WORTH FIGHTING FOR my darkest days
Now that we know just who we are
Now that we’ve finally come this far
I’m ready for one more battle scar
‘Cause this is still worth fighting for
So take a look into my eyes one last time
So we never forget the way we were before
When we came alive at the moment we met
This is still worth fighting for
A love that wants to live
I’ll give you all I’ve got to give
So let’s try one last time
So we never forget
This is still worth fighting for
They're on their way back to Konoha,
tails between their legs and the mission failed,
but he's got a new purpose now.
“I'll never give up! That's my nindo!”
He'll bring him back someday.

March's singustosleep challenge entry. It was pretty fun to put together; I got to use a bunch of tracks I've been itching to, some of them in ways I hadn't thought of before.
And yeah, I know, a lot of these artsists are on my other mixes. I can't help how good they are! (Or the fact that being Canadian means heightened exposure to Canadian bands.)
*** WATCH?
*** AFFILIATE?
