FANMIX | Dom / Mal | A mountain of ashes

manics — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 00:41:25 GMT

HEY GUYS. I've been obsessed with Inception since I saw it like a while ago (just like the rest of the world). The obsession isn't wearing off yet and I can't sleep, so I decided to make a fanmix. Yes, I know. A fanmix. I actually like fanmixes - they're just not what usually spend my time on, but today was an exception and I threw together a fanmix.

At first I wanted to make a fanmix for Fischer (Cilliaaaaan <3) but it would get pretty boring after a while, I think, so I decided to make a mix on Dom and Mal's relationship, from the start to the end. It all makes sense in my head and I hope it does in yours too.

P.S. Don't mind the bad graphic, it's been ages since I last made something.

I present you....

A MOUNTAIN OF ASHES

A Dom / Mal fanmix.

01) Joshua Radin - Somebody Else's Life

Then there's you, then came you, when I’m lost, I look at my picture of you

If you let me, I’ll show the world to you. Yes, if you let me, I’ll know just what to do

02) Ingrid Michaelson - Keep Breathing
The storm is coming, but I don’t mind. People are dying, I close my blinds.

All that I know is I’m breathing now.
I want to change the world, instead I sleep. I want to believe in more than you and me.

03) Beach House - Real Love

There’s something wrong with our hearts, when they beat pure, they stand apart.

In the black room, the light, watch the seabird fall.

Real love, it finds you somewhere with your back to it.

04) Grizzly Bear - I Live With You

Don’t put me on, don’t make me beg. They’ll try, they’ll try, they’ll try to keep us apart.

You’ll try, you’ll try, you’ll try to keep us apart (with what we can).

You brought us this far, we’ll do what we can.

05) The Antlers - Epilogue

In a nightmare, I am falling from the ceiling into bed beside you.

You're asleep, I'm screaming, shoving you to try to wake you up.

And like before, you've got no interest in the life you live when you're awake.

Your dreams still follow storylines, like fictions you would make.

So I lie down against your back, until we're both back in the hospital.

But now it's not a cancer ward, we're sleeping in the morgue.

Men and women in blue and white, they are singing all around you.

With heavy shovels holding earth, you're being buried to you neck.

In that hospital bed, being buried quite alive now.

I'm trying to dig you out but all you want is to be buried there together.

06) Eisley - Ambulance

I built a monument for the love we used to know.

But that is far removed and you say that I’m gonna be okay-

And yeah, I’m gonna be okay, but it doesn’t seem that way.

No love, not today.

07) Jenny Owen Youngs - What Beats Within

I’m sliding for some time. Ripping in two. A mountain of ashes, I’m just like you.

You come to find me, a mess at your door, arms under elbows as I hit the floor.

I mean to tell you just what I’ve done. How could you choose me when I’ve just begun?
Don’t know what I’ll be when morning comes.

08) The Smiths - This Night Has Opened My Eyes
She took away your troubles, oh, but then again she left pain.

So please save your life, because you've only got one.

The dream is gone, but the baby is real. Oh, you did a good thing, she could have been a poet,

or, she could have been a fool. Oh, you did a bad thing, and I'm not happy and I'm not sad.

09) The Radio Debt. - I Don't Like It Like This
Words fail me all the time, I don’t even feel like talking.
Still I go on and on, I’m dying here and you keep walking.

10) Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton - Our Hell

What I thought it was it isn't now, what I thought it was it isn't.

Punishment to stall what is done.
What I thought was in is missing out, what I thought it was it isn't now.
There's a pattern in the system, there's a bullet in the gun.

That's why I tried to save you, but it can't be done.

11) Manic Street Preachers - Nobody Loved You

Let me turn down all these lights and sit with me, then you can hold me tight.

Give me some more of your carrier bags and let me dream of a new autumn light.

Tell me your story, baby. What’s your poison and what is your honey?

You’ve stopped me hurting, but so much disorder. Winter flowers, did you ever forgive her?

Did you ever forgive her?

12) Dúné - Let Go Of Your Love

Now you see the things we had. You lost them and you want them back.

I can’t see our lives entwined, so I’m just grateful about the things we had, us two.

You lost them, now it’s not me and you. Hope it’s worth what I give up...

Make me grateful.

i have a lot friends on here. some are very active, some are not.
i really like everyone on my flist (or you wouldn't be my friend in the first place!), but it's gotten so big and i don't really like having such a big number of people being able to read about my thought/life.

i've gone through my friends list, and if i didn't recognize either your username or your icon/we never talked/some other reason, you're out.
