I Just Run My Hands Through Her Dark Hair

I own neither the characters nor the songs used. No profit is being made from this.
So... Yeah. This is sort of an ultra-mix for me. Normally I don't put nearly so much work into it. Heh. I have a story line planned out, but it's going to take a while to write, so for now I'm just going to add in the story bits as I write them.

Lyrics
She never lets me in,
only tell me where's she's been
when she's had too much to drink.
I say that I don't care, I just run my hands
through her dark hair and I pray to God
you gotta help me fly away.
And just let her cry, if the tears fall down like rain.
Let her sing, if it eases all her pain.
Let her go, let her walk right out on me.
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be, let her be.
This morning I woke up alone,
found a note standing by the phone
saying baby, maybe I'll be back some day
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didn't know just what I shoulddo
so I sat back down had a beer and felt sorry for myself.
~~~
Last night I tried to leave
Cried so much I could not believe
She was the same girl I fell in love with long ago
She went in the back to get high
I sat down on my couch and cried
Yelling oh mama please help me
Won't you hold my hand
***
She gives him one last, stern look - and Jayne doesn't know what she means, he never knows what she means. He just watches her go as she climbs up out of the hatch, wondering why she ever came down in the first place. And he lets himself feel, for just a moment, and he wishes so hard it hurts that she was just for one moment all right again. When she closes him in, he takes out a half-full bottle of the most expensive whiskey he owns and he drinks. He drinks until he makes as much sense as she does.
"She Had the World" - Panic at the Disco
Lyrics
She held the world upon a string
But she didn't ever hold me
Spun the stars on her fingernails
But it never made her happy
'Cause she couldn't ever have me
She said she'd won the world at a carnival
But she couldn't ever win me
'Cause she couldn't ever catch me
I... I know why
Because when I look in her eyes, I just see the sky
When I look in her eyes, well, I just see the sky
I don't love you I'm just passing the time
You could love me if I knew how to lie
But who could love me I am out of my mind
Throwing a line out to sea
To see if I could catch a dream
~~~
She said she'd won the world at a carnival
But I'm sure I didn't ruin her, just made her more interesting
I'm sure I didn't ruin her, just made her more interesting
***
"You tryin' to get me in trouble? What, now you'r go'n twist my words an' tell the doc an' Mal that I been tryin' to sweet talk you into my bunk? That ain't funny and ain't nothin' of no kind o' sexual nature's ever happenin' 'tween us; the only way I'm even comin' close to sex with you is if the words 'ain't havin' are between them words in a sentence."
"Better Man" - Pearl Jam
Lyrics
Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o'clock, it's got to stop
Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech
As he opens the door, she rolls over
Pretends to sleep as he looks her over
She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man
She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Can't find a better man
Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know
She tells herself, oh
Memories back when she was bold and strong
And waiting for the world to come along
Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone
***
"It is fine," she says, still turned away from him, staring at the lumpy blanket that covered all his guns - the guns, the girls, she thought bitterly, that he loved so much more than her. "I forgive you."
"Beg" - Evans Blue
Lyrics
Won’t you beg me and then tell me how to love you
Like anybody else would
I know you're risking failure (risking failure)
Go run for cover (for how long)
You better start to love her so much you’re moving on and on
Now there's a whole wide world...that wants to know
Have cheap hotels lost their turn-on? she's bathing in the neon
And she's polluting all the airways while I'm passed out in the hallway
And you left me so in love here, you left with so much hate dear
Was I creating only chaos-this world lives just fine without us…won’t you?
"Keep Yourself Warm" - Frightened Rabbit
Lyrics
Can you see in the dark?
Can you see the look on your face?
The flashing white light's been turned off
You don't know who's in your bed
It takes more than fucking someone
You don't know to keep warm.
Did you really think that a fuck at half speed
You'll find your love in a hole?
I'm drunk, I'm drunk
And you're probably on pills
If we've both got the same diseases
It's irrelevant, girl
"Round Here" - Counting Crows
Lyrics
Step out the front door like a ghost
Into the fog where no one notices
The contrast of white on white
And in between the moon and you
The angels get a better view
Of the crumbling difference
Between wrong and right
~~~
And she parks her car outside of my house
And takes her clothes off
Says she's close to understanding Jesus
And she knows she's more than just a little misunderstood
She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous
~~~
Then she looks up at the building
Says she's thinking of jumping
She says she's tired of life
She must be tired of something
Round here
"When You're Around" - Motion City Soundtrack
Lyrics
Can we fake it?
Can we make believe?
I'm so full of love
It deeply sickens me.
But all I could do was close my eyes
And cross my arms and hope to die
Cause you don't fucking listen
When I'm around.
The least you could do is take it back
All the vicious remarks and verbal attacks
Cause I can't fucking stand it.
When you're around
Midwest aftermath, the rumors start to rise
Did I truly do the things that you've described?
They must hate me, every single one
It just sickens them, what I consider fun.
"Sometime Around Midnight" - the Airborne Toxic Event
Lyrics
And it starts, sometime around midnight.
Or at least that’s when you lose yourself
for a minute or two.
As you stand, under the bar lights.
And the band plays some song
about forgetting yourself for a while.
And the piano’s this melancholy soundtrack to her smile.
And that white dress she’s wearing
you haven’t seen her for a while.
But you know, that she’s watching.
She’s laughing, she’s turning.
She’s holding her tonic like a cross.
The room’s suddenly spinning.
She walks up and asks how you are.
So you can smell her perfume.
You can see her lying naked in your arms.
~~~
Then she leaves, with someone you don’t know.
But she makes sure you saw her.
She looks right at you and bolts.
"Heartbreaker - the Cardigans
Lyrics
No, not again
oh, what a man
just who I thought that I wanted to have
Oh, don't do that
don't use that bat
that's all it takes to make me falling flat
No, not again
a loser I am
I love you tonight
you are my knight
cure and assure and make me feel alright
tomorrow you'll find
I'm not around
but don't be uptight
'cause I loved you last night
Vacant and free
yeah, that is me
Just tell me how and I'll please you for free
tell me I'm good
I know I'm bad
Lies make me feel fine although it is sad
Oh, not again
not one more man
"Flesh for Bones (acoustic)" - Terra Naomi
Lyrics
And I’m burning all my bridges
with these matches I light
To illuminate my path to what is right
And even if it’s true what they say
that you can’t go back home
once you’ve cast it away
I would still have left tonight
You know baby I would be with you if I could
To trade my flesh for your bones
I would, I would, I would, I would, I would…
I carry with me on my way
All the ghosts of all the love
that I let slip away
The heavy weight of promises made
That if I could exonerate
I might just lift off today
"Bring Me to Life" - Evanescence
Lyrics
How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
where I’ve become so numb
Without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can’t wake up)Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can’t wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I’ve become
Now that I know what I’m without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
"Life on Mars?" - David Bowie
Lyrics
It's a God-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling no
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now she walks through the sunken dream
To the seat with the clearest view
As they ask her to focus on
