Another fanmix, yay!
(I swear this isn't all I do anymore...)
Medium: Comic books
Fandom: Marvel & DC
Subject: Various Characters
Title: Across The Multiverse
Warnings: Spoiler-y in general, but nothing that isn't at least a year old.
Notes: This is the paired down version of a comic book themed mix I made for Comic Expo last year... hope you enjoy!
Black Lab - Learn to Crawl
(Spiderman; Peter and Mary Jane)
I could feel it like the spider's sting
Like a memory in my mouth
[...]
Can you teach me how to fly?
See I'm scared to die
We've only just begun to learn to crawl
Can you teach me how to fight?
Will you keep me up all night?
Will you be there on the ground if I should fall
Fall for you
- - -
The Killers - Move Away
(Spiderman; trying to balance a superhero identity and civilian life)
While I move away
Hard times don't come until tomorrow
These eyes don't see
Take your skin off when you listen to me
Move away
Hard times don't come until tomorrow
These eyes in me
Take your skin off when you're talkin' to me
- - -
Jimmy Eat World - Futures
(Iron Man; Tony Stark, the Futurist)
I always believed in futures
I hope for better in November
Try the same losing lucky numbers
It could be a cold night, for a lifetime
- - -
Black Sabbath - Iron Man
(Iron Man)
I am Iron Man
[...]
Heavy boots of lead
Fills his victims full of dread
Running as fast as they can
Iron Man lives again!
- - -
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll
(Deadpool; general insanity)
Off with your head
Dance til you're dead
Heads will roll, heads will roll
Heads will roll on the floor
- - -
Newton Faulkner - Ageing Superhero
(Cable; war-weary)
Feel younger than I did when I was younger on a backwards track
I thought by now I could have figured it all out instead I'm further back
[...]
Time is running out and I just want to say I'm sorry now,
Before I'm all alone again, and I'm broken and cold
The ageing superhero in me is tired
Because he's lived too fast for too long
and he still longs to be inspired
- - -
Incubus - Megalomaniac
(Cable; the creation of Providence)
Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean on yourself, baby and
Step down
Step down
- - -
Three Days Grace - Animal I Have Become
(The Hulk; dealing with the transformations)
I can't escape this hell
So many times I've tried
But I'm still caged inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can't control myself
So what if you can see the darker side of me
No one will ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe it's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal
- - -
Our Lady Peace - Superman's Dead
(Superman)
Why is Superman dead
Is it in my head
We'll just laugh instead
You worry about the weather and
Whether or not you should hate
- - -
Crash Test Dummies - Superman Song
(Superman)
Superman never made any money
Saving the world from Solomon Grundy
And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man like him
- - -
Jim's Big Ego - The Ballad of Barry Allen
(The Flash)
And I'll be there before you know it
I'll be gone before you see me
And do you think you can imagine
Anything so lonely
And I know you'd really like me
But I never stick around
Because time keeps dragging on
- - -
Coldplay - The Scientist
(Booster & Ted; friendship and genius, Booster mourns)
Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me
Come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start
[...]
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
- - -
Ludo - The Horror of Our Love
(Booster & Ted; a Black Lantern Ted's song to Booster)
I've murdered half the town
Left you love notes on their headstones
I'll fill the graveyards
Until I have you
[...]
And I hold your beating chambers
Until they beat no more
You die like angels sing
- - -
The Used - Sound Effects & Overdramatics
(Booster & Ted; another Black Lantern era song)
When you mentioned blue
Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while
- - -
Stabbing Westward - The Thing I Hate
(Batman; Bruce vs. Jason, walking the line between justice and madness)
You've treated my like I'm a worthless piece of shit
You think you're in control, but you make me sick
I want to watch you suffer the way that you've made me suffer
I want to fuck up everything you've ever loved
[...]
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become you.
- - -
The Smyrk - The End of Jason Todd
(Batman; Jason's death as told by the Joker)
You must've seen this comin
Limited number of times a Clown Prince
Could laugh it off and keep runnin
So don't be surprised when you hear I'm declarin war
Cause wouldn't your soldiers be prepared for it?
[...]
Today you're the punchline, tomorrow the joke
