Soundtrack & Vibes
A SOFTER WORLD:
we carry our own loneliness with us. (It isn't some creepy haunted doll, just showing up. You PACKED it.) [x])
No I'm not afraid of losing the real me. Fake happiness beats genuine misery. [x]
All I want for Christmas is you to still be alive. [x]
I know exactly what you need. And I hope you go out and get it. xoxoxo. (I want to make you happy! I guess this is how.) [x]
You and me, baby! We are the future, and the future is bleak. [x]
It turns out that sometimes the future actually belongs to someone else. [x]
I don't believe each person has just one true love, but sometimes we don't have enough time to find another. [x]
Some days are magic, and I can do anything. The other days, I just have to wait, and hope it comes back. [x]
I wonder how many hauntings go unreported because wailing and the clank of chains are still better than an empty house. [x]
We talk in the dark as we fall asleep, and we are objects in the night sky outside of time. (it is the exact opposite of alone.) [x]
I used to say I missed you after just a weekend. like a child learning to talk, who calls every cat a tiger. (And now what words do I have?) [x]
sometimes i want to ruin my whole life so i can start over without feeling guilty. (because i need an excuse to choose me) [x]
You are never so low that you deserve to be lower. (when you look down at people, don't you want to help them up?) [x]
I don't want to die alone, which I guess means I don't want to die. (I don't want to live, alone.) [x]

MUSIC:
CROSS YOUR FINGERS - LAURA MARLING
and the house that you were born in is crumbling at the corner
saggy skin and feet of crows, feet of crows
I'll jump into your grave and die
and on my word, you'll give up your whole life for me
and you'll be reborn, bigger and stronger and less alive, and I, I...
NIGHT TERROR - LAURA MARLING
if I look back and he is screaming
I'd left him dreaming, the dangers fade
and I'll run back and shake him tightly
and scream, "if they want him,
oh, they're gonna have to fight me"
ALAS, I CANNOT SWIM - LAURA MARLING
there's a house across the river but alas, I cannot swim
and a garden of such beauty that the flower seem to grin
there's a house across the river but alas, I cannot swim
I live my life regretting that I never jumped in
PACIFIC BLUES - SLEEPING AT LAST
if I could rearrange my words, I'd say what I mean
if I could learn to count the cards, I'd risk everything.
imagine how brave I'd be if I knew I'd be safe.
if I could only know the end, I'd be a prodigy of faith
SIX - SLEEPING AT LAST
fear won’t go away but I can keep it at bay
and these invisible walls just might keep us safe
with a vigilant heart, I’ll push into the dark
but I’ll learn to breathe deep and make peace with the stars
is that courage or faith to show up everyday?
to trust that there will be light always waiting behind
even the darkest of nights
SORROW - SLEEPING AT LAST
it feels like falling, it feels like rain.
like losing my balance again and again
it once was so easy; breathe in, breathe out
but at the foot of this mountain, I only see clouds
SOMEWHERE IN THE BETWEEN - STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO
maybe the times we had, they weren't that bad
and everything else was part of our path
we sang: "I don't know where we go from here"
this is the anthem, the slogan, the summary of events
and we all just idealize the past
so you were born, and that was a good day
someday you'll die, and that is a shame
TWO MINUTES - THE AMAZING DEVIL
if I'm good will you come back
if I'm good will you come back to us
give me two damn minutes and I'll be fine
give me two damn minutes and I'll be fine
these hands are growing old
they're running out of things to hold
THE ROCKROSE AND THE THISTLE - THE AMAZING DEVIL
cause I'll darn you back together when you think that you're bereft
and you'll wail, you'll scream, but I'll never stop, cause it's all that I have left
I wake and hear you calling and up those cliffs I climb
and I find you with a thimble weeping; may I, I ask, may I?
and you gently gift it to me cause you've no clue how to sew
and I know the kindest thing; I pray to god it's the kindest thing
I know the kindest thing is to never leave you alone
ANTICLIMAX - KAT FLINT
can we sit side by side and talk about nothing?
well, any excuse is all that I want right now
and I'm charmed and entertained by all of the strangest things
hey, you are one, so do your worst
but kiss me first, then do your worst to me
cause all I need is time
to grow up, to grow bored, and to grow wise
HALF DEAD - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS
and whole boxes of memories wrapped up at the curb
I sang songs to myself, didn't have any words
can't get you out of my head
lost without you, half dead
