The Sound of Sherlolly
We all get inspired by what surrounds us in our day to day life. About 89% of the time, I get inspired by music. So today I would like to share some songs that have inspired some of my edits and writings. But before I start sharing them, I’d like to explain how I will be doing this.
Just so everyone can understand a little bit better, I have sorted my playlist into four different categories; Sherlock’s perspective, Molly’s perspective, a perspective that could be seen by either or both of them and from others point of view. And when I mentioned “others” I meant as other characters. I’ll give an example below. They are also color coded but I guess that’s just my virgo side peeking through.
I will mention the name of the song, the singer(s), and my favourite verse(s), that way you can get a peek of the work.
Additionally, I'd just like to point out that not all songs will be 100% Sherlolly related, some may be, but others may not. So I recommend for everyone to give it a listen and experience it for yourselves.
Lastly, I would like to mention that this post will have more parts to come. Keep a look out if you are interested for more of “The Sound of Sherlolly.”
“Always the One" by Sleeperstar
Impossible
I could never replace you
I could never replace you
Permeate my soul
If you go I do not know
How I could live without you, live without you
Live without the only one who knows me
You were always the
One who was a fighter
Tear it down to build it higher
Greatest freedom, my desire
Unafraid to face the fire, to be loved
You were always the one
I can't sleep, I can't breathe
Without you here I'm just a shadow of a man
And I don't know what I'd do without you, yeah!
“Love in the Dark” by Adele
We're not the only ones
I don't regret a thing
Every word I've said
You know I'll always mean
It is the world to me
That you are in my life
But I want to live
And not just survive
“I love you” by Billie Eilish
The smile that you gave me
Even when you felt like dying
We fall apart as it gets dark
I'm in your arms in Central Park
There's nothing you could do or say
I can't escape the way I love you
I don't want to
But I love you, ooh
“Broken Home” by 5 Seconds of Summer
*To everyone, Tom and Molly were the perfect happy couple, everyone except their son. Her son and his bandmates were performing at a restaurant that always played live music. Her son invited all of Molly’s friends/family who were also part of his life. Sherlock, John, Greg, Meena, Mary, Rosie, Mrs. H, Stamford, among others were present. Molly had no clue of this songs existence, how he felt or that he even knew about her marriage problems with Tom. Molly was speechless and had tears streaming down her face while she watched her son give all on this performance. Tom was fuming with anger and the others were just speechless. No one had a clue. Molly masked everything out so well. She fooled everyone, even Sherlock Holmes.*
They would yell, they would scream, they were fighting it out
She would hope, she would pray, she was waiting it out
Holding on to a dream
While she watches these walls fall down
Sharp words like knives, they were cutting her down
Shattered glass like the past, it's a memory now
Holding on to a dream
While she watches these walls fall down
Thank you for reading thus far!
