MIX: i'll be up in the stars
title: i'll be up in the stars
pairing: chris/dustin
rating: pg
note: this isn't exactly intended as a soundtrack, but i had daisysusan's in other words-'verse in my head while i was making it. there's some pining, some sweetness, some themes of distance & separation, and a definite touch of happily-ever-after, because i like to believe that's where this is headed. also, track #14 is the closest i could get to the trampoline. in conclusion, this exists because (a.) chris/dustin are my entire heart and (b.) i adore daisysusan and everything she chooses to be.
1. into the dark. ben lee.
when i kiss you
that’s the real me
i’ve got to find my way to your heart.
2. sound of pulling heaven down. blue october.
i’ll wear my suit and tie when i am
toasting to the way you put that smile upon my face
i may be some sort of crazy
we may be some sort of crazy
but i swear on everything i have and more
i’m reaching farther than i ever have before.
3. home. duncan sheik.
i dream of a future, a possible place
where we lie together face to face
and i’m looking forward, i will not deny
i dream of a future made for you and i.
4. honey, let me sing you a song. matt hires.
maybe i’m blind, maybe i’m blind
oh, i couldn’t see you shine
and shimmer right in front of my eyes
listen to my words as they come out wrong.
5. happy. secrets in stereo.
i try to let you know
but my words get tangled up
and every time i find that i’m
outside looking in
i don’t want to live a day without you
i just want to be the one that makes you happy.
6. season of love. shiny toy guns.
maybe it’s all around to see
if we try
maybe it’s been inside of me
all this time.
7. where you belong. the summer obsession.
don’t say another word
put my finger to your lips and press
god is not watching us
we can do whatever we want
so let’s
it’s been so long.
8. the first five times. stars.
you stopped yourself and kissed me
and i grabbed your lips and told you
i know, i know, i know
i feel the same as you.
9. you have my attention. copeland.
you have my attention
like you’ve had all the while
since that first day
when you made my heart smile.
10. under the same stars. fink.
that’s as close as we get tonight
it only took the once
to know how special we could be.
11. tired of you. the exies.
i’m tired of running, tired of searching
tired of trying
but i’m not tired of you
losing everything
is something i can’t face.
12. on my way. stephen speaks.
if time gone has wronged you
then i’m going to make it right
i’m going to hear how much you missed me
and i’m going to say the same
don’t get used to this coming-home thing
because next time i’m leaving
you’re the one i’m going to bring.
13. up in the stars. swimming with dolphins.
look in these eyes
we know each other like our own skin and bones
we know the scars
how they got where they are
in places no one else knows.
14. treehouse. i’m from barcelona.
nobody can see us
it’s a you-and-me house.
15. the idea of growing old. the features.
we can lie around
and count the number of times
i’ve acted foolish
and you’ve rolled your eyes.
16. don’t want you to wake up. teitur.
no one can make us
change what we are
dreamers in the dark
following our hearts.
17. i’m yours. the script.
i listen close for i’m not smart
you wrap your thoughts in works of art
and they’re hanging on the walls of my heart
though my edges may be rough
i never feel i’m quite enough
it may not seem like very much
but i’m yours.
18. forever. ben harper.
give me your forever
please, your forever
not a day less will do
from you.
