me getting ready to drive my best friend and i to starbucks in my 2002 toyota 4runner that smells like sol de janeiro’s cheirosa 62 while i queue up a playlist that contains the entirety of pinkpantheress' current discography: there's a hundred thousand streets in this city. you don't need to know the route. you give me a time and a place, i give you a five minute window. anything happens in that five minutes and i'm yours. no matter what. anything happens a minute either side of that and you're on your own. do you understand?
grace, court, henry, k (many julian mentions in his section too), and bonus rocky, colt, holland, and lars
a/n : lots and lots of searows.. and radiohead— fun fact my main acct @/rottenfloorboards is based off of house song by searows :)
(and sorry in advance but k did take over my brain during this and ended up getting 5 songs instead of 3.. I blame @/gottabegreyhound…)
grace
end of the world by searows
“I ran away to the golden state/just to see if I can get back home”
“I’m hardly brave, I know/what do you say to a brand new ghost?”
honestly just adding this cause it mentions california but it is also very strattland coded
take it with you by cameron winter
“If you’re aching to come home, remember/it’s not here anymore/your traveling companions will be memories/you can lie awake with thoughts of simpler times/you can love me from afar if that’s what puts you at ease/but you won’t be on my mind”
grace by jeff buckley
haha get it cause the name of the song is the name of the guy haha
court
bullet proof… I wish I was by radiohead
“Wax me, mould me/heat the pins and stab them in/you have turned me into this/just wish that it was bulletproof”
drinking age by cameron winter
“Today/I met who I’m gonna be/from now on/and he’s a piece of shit”
“This is who I’m gonna be/this way/a piece of meat”
all I need by radiohead
“I’m an animal trapped in your hot car/I am all the days that you choose to ignore”
henry
high to death by car seat headrest
“Keep smoking, I love you/but I don’t wanna die, I don’t wanna die”
“And I sat there on the steps/considering death/there was only seconds left of the night”
“I can’t turn this thing off, it keeps following me/used to be so human now it’s just a machine”
this is soo herny- even the voice message at the end being an art student ugh
drifter by mook
“He had been there once before/twice now in similar clothes”
“The boy pushed at the door/wood marked by past reminiscion/that pointed under the floorboards/for a cure to his condition”
“He entered the house/without looking back to see/if the beast had followed him/into his memories”
starting over by lsd and the search for god
“Come back again, I’ll do it over (I couldn’t find you)”
“Honey, you know I’d do it over (let me remind you, real life)”
“Youre A monster given life form (hurry up, I’m leaving)/with one foot in the grave”
very similar dreamy vibe that the movie has.. (this one’s also kind of k coded..)
k
roadkill by searows
“Pick me up like I’m fragile/carry me to the nearest tree/or burry me under gravel/just deep enough so nobody finds me”
“A guard dog with a death wish/in the center of the ring, I lose”
this is very k to me- like I know I was not kind and I wasn’t even human but please god let my death mean something to anyone
(honorable mentions to julian and driver for this song also (hesitant on the driver add though cause I haven’t seen the movie eek))
coming clean by searows
“But is this coming clean/or am I digging up the bodies you burried?/and what’s this supposed to mean?/am I brave if the noise doesn’t scare me?/if I make myself easy to carry?”
“but I don’t wanna be your angel/wanna see you cut off a limb/nobody wins if you killed me/I would have to forgive you still.”
the angel mention makes me think of k but the cut off a limb/forgiveness theme makes me think of julian idk
indian rubber by radiohead
“Did it all for you to say/you never wanted me that way”
“I supplicate myself/into your hands”
another k and julian coded song I guess??
nude by radiohead
“Don’t get any big ideas/they’re not gonna happen”
“You’ll go to hell/for what your dirty mind/is thinking”
feeling guilty for wanting connection
I know by fiona apple
“So be it I’m your crowbar/if that’s what I am so far/until you get out of this mess”
“It’s okay/don’t need to say it”
ik this song is about romantic unrequited love but it still feels very k to me..
and bonus!
rocky
belly of the whale by searows
this feels very him pre grace/phm after his crew died
colt
nine lives by odie leigh
”Cats have nine lives/I have two/I live one for me/and one for you”
“Screw the timeline, I lost track/was it really me who had my bags all packed up first?”
“I don’t think I fell too hard, got this injured in the climb”
very coltland gentry from colt’s pov if I do say so myself
holland
a burning hill by mitski
“And I’ve been a forest fire/I am a forest fire/and I am the fire and I am the forest/and I am a witness watching it/I stand in a valley watching it/and you are not there at all”
it’s always “I understand why you have an autism diagnosis now” and not “thank you for explaining the entirety of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster to me, I really enjoyed hearing about the Chernobyl nuclear disaster”
