[ I am teaching myself how to be free. ]
a playlist about 2cro, from the rise to the break to the fall to the unstoppable desperate wish that no world will make the mistake of allowing him to be reborn
(song titles link to the song, artist titles link to the lyrics)
01. BE YOUR SHADOW || THE WOMBATS
Kiss me with your fist, it's all right Wrap your hands around my throat, I won't mind I'm permanent, now I won't go I just wanna be your shadow
02. MADHOUSE || KIMBRA
Devils don't lie They just fuel the heart’s fire for more, more Devils don't pry They just wait until you want a bit more, more
03. CONTROL || HALSEY
And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me." I can't help this awful energy Goddamn right, you should be scared of me Who is in control?
04. HOLD ME DOWN || HALSEY
My demons are begging me to open up my mouth I need them, mechanically make the words come out They fight me, vigorous and angry, watch them pounce Ignite me, licking at the flames they bring about
05. ULTRAVIOLET || MIAMI HORROR
The sun goes down, your eyes look up With your disguise, conceal it The sun comes up, the lies come out You’ve idealized this feeling
06. ZETSUBOUSEI: HERO CHIRYOUYAKU || SUZUMU & SORARU
In a despair dance, the boy inside the box Laughed at the reality that caught up with him Pretending to be the good guy For a string of selfish things doesn’t help at all
07. PSEUDOLOGIA FANTASTICA || FOSTER THE PEOPLE
Fill the air with what you like Another weekend massacre of opinion Don’t be afraid of the knife Sometimes you have to cut the limb to survive
08. QUEEN OF PEACE || FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE
Oh, the queen of peace Always does her best to please It isn't any use Somebody's gotta lose
09. BLINDING || FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE
No more dreaming of the dead as if death itself was undone No more calling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so in love No more dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world
10. REPTILIA || THE STROKES
The wait is over I'm now taking over You're no longer laughing I'm not drowning fast enough
11. WIRES || THE NEIGHBORHOOD
He tells me to be raw, admits to every little flaw That never let him sit upon the top Won't tell me to stop, thinks that I should be a little cautious Well I can tell the wires pulled
12. EVEN THOUGH || MORCHEEBA
Even though we know it's forever changing Even though we know we don't have long Even though we know there's a hidden danger I hope we don't go wrong
13. SLEEP ALONE || TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB
And I don't know If in the morning I will be here And if so, let it be known That I was worthy, I was worthy, I was worthy I was-
14. GOATS IN TREES || FOSTER THE PEOPLE
Well, pleased to meet you, excuse my hands I've been bitten by an enemy that's pretended to be my friend No, I never wanted to be like them I thought I was just too clever To be brought down to their level Of misfortuned chagrin
15. AGEHACHOU || PORNO GRAFFITTI
I asked the traveler how far he’d go and when he’d be done The traveler answered that though he could end it, there’d be no end It’s been a long time since I said “OK, take care” and sent him on his way He still hasn’t come back, and it’s only now that I’ve realized That that person was me
16. VARIOUS STORMS AND SAINTS || FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE
And people just untie themselves Uncurling like flags If you could just forgive yourself
maybe someday i’ll make like an actual playlist on youtube or 8tracks or something but for now this is what you get
alt title: a bunch of songs a like a lot feat. mostly my friend florence welch
