Close to the Edge; Fanmix #2
Nov. 25th, 2007 02:39 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
part_bNew fanmix, because I've been bored, stressed, and listening to Imogen Heap.
Interesting combination. XD
Anyway, again, Tsubasa-themed, more specifically Kurogane/Fai. The explanations aren't great, and generally I'm not feeling as good about this fanmix as I was the last one, but there are a few songs on here that I really like, especially for this pairing.
Without further ado...
.01 Clear the Area - Imogen Heap - lyrics
No light…mercury morning…
No need to stay as it’s always nothing.
But your eyes tell a whole other story…and I feel the weight of the world.
Won’t talk…Won’t try…just move…
It’s too still in your sadness.
Cry…give up…it’s okay…
You’ve just got to trust me.
You find your way back down.
And I’ll keep the area clear…please clear the area.
When you find your way back down…in one piece.
Then I’ll just be waiting here…right here.
Slowly…darling…nobody means anymore to me than you
If you’re in…baby then I’m in (into this)…with you, always.
Careful…close to the edge…(You’re scaring me)
Fall in to my arms….(where did it all fall?)
Fall…into love…love…
You find your way back down.
And I’ll keep the area clear…please clear the area.
When you find your way back down…in one piece.
Then I’ll just be waiting here…right here.
I heard this song yesterday, and it just said KUROFAI so much to me that it actually compelled me to make this whole fanmix. The title is right there in the song, see? Anyway, this is just so them, Kurogane will always be there to catch Fai, he's just got to pick up the pieces first.
.02 We Are Broken - Paramore - lyrics
I am outside,
And I've been waiting for the sun.
With my wide eyes,
I've seen worlds that don't belong.
My mouth is dry,
With words I cannot verbalize.
Tell me why,
We live like this.
Keep me safe inside,
Your arms like towers.
Tower over me, yeah.
'Cause we are broken.
What must we do to restore,
Our innocence,
And all the promise we adored?
Give us life again,
Cause we just wanna be whole.
In this, I especially for some reason love the line "I've seen worlds that don't belong." It puts me in the mind of Tokyo, and Infinity, and Celes, and just, Fai's seen things that no one should have to see, and together they're going to get through this.
.03 OK GO - Maybe, This Time - lyrics
You must have mastered this
The fragile art of a good excuse
And the little things that get you to believe
So listen I'm not trying to prove anything at all here
But don't you think that maybe this time you were wrong?
You've spent your entire life
Quick-tongued and always right
Hasn't being just right let you down? (right just let you down)
Fai has spent so much time trying to perfect his charade, he can't see that he's breaking.
.04 Caleb Kane - Longer - lyrics
Everyone comes down on my head
Everyone will go away 'til the jokes to bed
Every lie I know, every line I speak
I can't convince you
I'm moving too fast and you're non-committal
I don't need a lot but I need a little
Maybe it's better you stay
We hurt each other
(Chorus)
And I don't know why I came here tonight
Listening to you tell me what I didn't do right
And I don't think that I can listen to this shit much longer
I don't know what I came up here to say
Say you'll never love me then I'll maybe go away
And I don't wanna leave but I can't stay much longer
Time-traveling back to the highly angsty period with this some here. "Every lie I know, every line I speak/I can't convince you"
.05 Imogen Heap - Headlock - lyrics
We’re a different pair, just something out of step.
Throw a stranger an unexpected smile...with big intention.
Still posted at your station.
Always on about the day it should have flown.
You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.
Afraid to start, got your heart in a headlock,
I don't believe any of it.
You say too late to start, with your heart in a headlock,
You know you're better than this.
Been walking, you've been hiding,
And you look half dead half the time.
Monitoring you, like machines do,
You've still got it, I'm just keeping an eye
More Imogen Heap. They're a 'different pair' but they stay together, and watch out for each other. Fai doesn't think that it could be more than that.
.06 KT Tunstall - Funnyman - lyrics
Funnyman, gotta try to be something wonderful
Funnyman, listening to the world turning on its sail
Turn it into a brand new universe
Funnyman could never be anything else.
Do you remember that night
When I had to play your angel
Saving your soul?
Even though you were holding on tight
A part of you was taken by the demons below
When no one to lose
Said you feel like a bruise
On a beautiful body.
And all the damage you do
Is so honest and true
I don't want to feel sorry for you
Pretty self-explanatory, I believe.
.07 The Killers - When You Were Young - lyrics
You sit there in your heartache
Waitin' on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it, now here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined
When you were young
Can we climb this mountain?
I don't know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
That's takin' easy
Easy now, watch it go
We burnin' down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane
That started turnin'
When you were young
Aah, I've been wanting to use this one for awhile. At first it doesn't seem to fit, but it does! Fai has been waiting for the one to take him away.
.08 Shiny Toy Guns - I Promise You Walls - lyrics
Loneliness
Is more than we'll ever feel
Blind as you are
Watching everything
When we die
Faith is lost...
Once again
Taking hold of all we are
Chorus
Who says we die?
Before we live
I promise you walls of grace
...to carry on
When we're lost
..We’ll find a way
I... I'm not sure why this song fits. It just does. Call this a cop-out on the explanation for this song if you will, but it does.
.09 Fiona Apple - Red Red Red - lyrics
I don't understand about complementary colors
And what they say
Side by side they both get bright
Together they both get gray
But he's been pretty much yellow
And I've been kinda blue
But all I can see is
Red, red, red, red, red now
What am I gonna do
I don't understand about
Diamonds and why men buy them
What's so impressive about a diamond
Except the mining
And it's dangerous work
Trying to get to you too
And I think if I didn't have to
Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill myself doing it
Maybe I wouldn't think so much of you
Again, pretty self-explanatory.
.10 The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - lyrics
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
It's ok, It's ok, It's ok
Seasons are changing and waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

Yes, it's 3:09 am. Which is probably why I might go and look over this again in the morning, to see if anything awful is going on with it, but right now, I sleep.
