Glory for the Broken

[nike_ravus]

Medium: Fanfic
Fandom: X-Men/Criminal Minds
Subject: An Emma/Emily Fanmix: ie. All the depressing music I've been listening to while writing this.
Title: Glory for the Broken
Warnings: If you haven't read the fic, it won't spoil anything.  But if you haven't read it, why would you bother at all?
Notes: This is mostly music raided from other mixes (often Supernatural, because you really can't have too many apocalypse tunes), a parody one may follow, if i can ever figure out this uploading thing.

 

Women of Diamond

 

Four Winds (cover of Bright Eyes)

The Killers

 

A squatter's made a mural of a Mexican girl

With fifteen cans of spray paint in a chemical swirl

She's standing in the ashes at the end of the world

Four winds blowing through her hair

 

Oedipus for Girls

 

After the Bombs

The Decemberists

 

After the bombs subside

And this long, low campaign

Calls it good for the night

We meet in the streets

Will we meet in a bar’s cold light?

We grip at our hands

We hold just a little tight

 

Instant Pleasure

Rufus Wainwright

 

I don't want somebody to love me

just give me sex whenever I want it

'cause all I ask for is instant pleasure

instant pleasure, instant pleasure

 

Commodum Ex Iniuria

 

Slow Suicide

Jamison Parker

 

We live like vampires

And we, we, we love like killers

We all die like infants

And we trust like mirrors

 

Dilaudid

The Mountain Goats

 

Hike up your fishnets, I know you

If we live to see the other side of this

I will remember your kiss

So do it with your mouth open

And take your foot off of the brake

For Christ's sake!

 

This Time Imperfect

AFI

 

I cannot leave here, I cannot stay

Forever haunted, more than afraid

Asphyxiate on words I would say

I'm drawn to a blackened sky

As I turn blue

 

9 Crimes

 

9 Crimes

Damien Rice

 

leave me out with the waste this is not what i do

it's the wrong kind of place to be cheating on you

it's the wrong time she's pulling me through

it's a small crime and i got no excuse

 

I Believe You But My Tommy Gun Don’t

Brand New

 

Wouldn't stop if I could

Oh it hurts to be this good

You're holding on to your grudge

Oh it hurts to always have to be honest with the one that you love

Oh so let it go

 

We're concentrating on falling apart

We were contenders, now throwing the fight

I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe in us

 

Hungry

Ben Lee

 

if hearts

could speak

some things I can’t repeat

'cause you

were sent

to steal my innocence

it’s all

so much

your love, your words, your touch

your glare

your scent

makes me believe again

 

and we get so hungry

we eat each other alive

we get so hungry

only the strong survive

we get so hungry

cannot get you off my mind

we get so hungry, hungry, yeah

 

Pillar of Salt

The Thermals

 

I carry my baby

Her eyes can barely see

Her mouth can barely breathe

 

I can see she's afraid

That's why we're escaping

So we won't have to die

We won't have to deny

Our dirty god

Our dirty bodies

 

Every Thug Needs a Lady

Alkaline Trio

 

I know it's dark here, you know that I'm scared too

For some reason right now, of everything but you

Right now you're all that I recognize

You know I came here when I needed your soft voice

I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer

 

Fake Empire

 

Fake Empire

The National

 

Turn the light out say goodnight

No thinking for a little while

Let's not try to figure out everything at once

It's hard to keep track of you falling through the sky

We're half awake in a fake empire

We're half awake in a fake empire

 

Love Me Like the World Is Ending

Ben Lee

 

This is the last day of existence

And all I want is you

And there's a certain sadness

But I know, I know, I know

The sky is what makes the ocean blue

I know, I know, I know

The sky is what makes the ocean blue

 

I can see so clearly when your smoke gets in my eyes

Please me with your promises and hurt me with your lies

Baby can you hear the message I am sending?

Love me like the world is ending

 

Emily

 

Such A Common Bird

Ane Brun

 

I am a lone wolf

a beauty and a beast

both hunter and hunted

soft tongue and sharp teeth

 

I’m toned from my travels

yet raw from this road

as I drink from storm puddles

and the stories I’m told

 

Emma

 

Champagne

Sugarcult

 

All I can taste is champagne

Dancing away down my veins

Spinning around and round

I can’t get up without your help

I’m on the ground

 

General

 

Nicest Thing

Kate Nash

 

I wish that without me your heart would break

Yeah I wish that without me you’d be

Spending the rest of your nights awake

I wish that without me you couldn’t eat

I wish I was the last thing on your mind before you went to…sleep

Look, all I know is that you’re the nicest thing I’ve ever seen

And I wish we could see if we could be something
