ooooooo my mick milk playlist is coming along nicely
so i created two. bear in mind these are both works in progress!
the first playlist is songs i feel would fit in cooperative gameplay, both aesthetic & songs i can see mickey having on one of his personal playlists
the second playlist is split into three sections:
songs relating to mickey (track 1 - ‘feel something’)
songs mickey could drum to (’given up’ - ‘listening’)
songs in the POV of mickey to ian (’fell for you’ - end)
i think, tomorrow, i'll do some lyric breakdowns for why i chose the songs, just because, lol.
@gallavichy
lyric breakdowns under the cut!
mickey
still breathing
“are you scared to death to live? / i’ve been running all my life / just to find a home that’s for the restless”
21 guns
"did you try to live on your own / when you burned down the house and home / did you stand too close to the fire"
swim
“you’ve gotta swim / don’t let yourself sink / just find the horizon / i promise it’s not as far as you think”
coming clean
“seventeen and coming clean for the first time / i finally figured out myself for the first time / i found out what it takes to be a man / mom and dad will never understand”
kiss the boy
“most of my life i've been terrified / spending my days always questioning / am i wrong to love a man / i realise i realise ain't gotta hide this heart of mine”
worry rock
“fucked without a kiss again and dragged it through the mud” / “a knocked out dragged down fight / fat lips and open wounds”
hey look ma, i made it
“if it’s a dream, don’t wake me, don’t wake me, don’t wake me / i said, hey look ma, i made it”
therapy
“in a city of fools / i was careful and cool / but they tore me apart like a hurricane” / “arrogant boy / love yourself so no one has to”
mostly to yourself
“you say fuck it man, you’re better off / it’s better this way / you’re mostly in the shadows and that’s fine / or you say fuck it man, you’re not fine / but you’re doing it your way”
i’m still standing
“don’t you know i’m still standing better than i ever did / looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid / i’m still standing after all this time / picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind”
dying in la
“the moment you arrived / they built you up / the sun was in your eyes / you couldn’t believe it”
way less sad
“i wake up and i’m not so mad at Twitter now / living sucks but it’s sucking just a little now / and i don’t wanna cry no more / so i set my bar real low”
feel something
“i’ve grown with the pain and bathed in the lonely / all i want in this moment is someone to hold me”
ian/mickey
fell for you
“i had a dream that i kissed your lips and it felt so true / then i woke up as a nervous wreck and i fell for you” / “break a leg and you crush my heart / i’m a mess and you’re a work of art”
wondering
“cause everybody needs someone that they can trust in / and you’re somebody that i found just in time”
missing you
“waking up, feeling naked / in my clothes inside a room that’s vacant” / “i’m missing you / you’re not around and i’m a fucking disaster”
i wanna be the one
“for everything you lost and all you overcome / i wanna be the one to put it in a song”
boys
“trying to read between the lines / come on babe, give me a sign that you feel like i do / i’m hanging off every word that you say / just waiting on you”
give me life
“you opened up my eyes / now fear and fate collide under neon skies / it’s magic by your side / freedom from the fight / a new paradise”
read my mind
“push you away and expect you to stay / i’m holding your heart but i still haven’t figured out mine / it would be so easy if you just / read my mind”
the only thing
“should i tear my heart out now / everything i feel returns to you somehow”
falling
“what am i now? / what if you’re someone i just want around? / i’m falling again”
the (shipped) gold standard
“i wanna scream i love you from the top of my lungs / but i’m afraid someone else will hear me / you can only blame your problems on the world for so long”
honesty
“you took some photographs / and everything overlapped” / “i know everything changes / but oh my god / you’re speaking my language”
strange & beautiful
“i’ve been watching your world from afar / i’ve been trying to be where you are / and i’ve been secretly falling apart”
blue heaven midnight crush
“my love tell me what you’re thinking / cause one way or the other i can take it / cause i’m so tired of dreaming / you hold my hand i forget to fake it”
homesick at space camp
"landing on a runway in chicago / and i'm grounding all my dreams of ever really seeing california" / "tonight the headphones will deliver you the words that i can't say"
the last of a dying breed
"i know this whole damn city thinks it needs you / but not as much as i do" / "'cause you're the last of a dying breed / write our names in the wet concrete / i wonder if your therapist knows everything about me"
just like a movie
"is there a world where we can be alone"? / i don't wanna wait, not anymore / well you see right through me"
white teeth teens
"we wouldn't be seen dead here in the day yeah / i guess you're lucky that it's dark now / and if i like it then we'll stay"
hold me tight or don't
literally the entire song - see gray's post here
wilson (expensive mistakes)
"i was gonna say something that would solve all our problems / then i got drunk and i forgot what i was talking about" / "don't know know there's nothing more cruel than to be loved by everybody but you”
rain
ian @ mickey, the entire song
share your address
ian @ mickey, the entire song again
follow you
again. the entire song. but both of them @ each other
palm reader
“i’m so bored, i’m burning inside / open up the door, let you into my mind” / “you can read between the lines ‘cause you’re my palm reader” (mickey @ ian)
