ONE // THE END OF THE BEGINNING
01| PROBABLY - Lisa Loeb
I probably want to hold your hand
I probably want to kiss you
You'll probably misunderstand
I'll probably miss you
02| BALANCE BEAM - Blue October
I haven't been quite the same
So sure the story of my life would never change
But in a bright-eyed way
She rinsed out the soap in my eyes
And wrote a song that I'm about to sing
03| SALLY'S SONG - Fiona Apple
And does he notice my feelings for him?
And will he see how much he means to me?
I think it's not to be
04| ROUGH LANDING, HOLLY - Yellowcard
We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go
Let her go
-
"But you know the truth...about me." "I trust you."
05| SLIPPING AWAY - Cirque du Soleil
The night falls heavy on my body
Whenever I watch you lying next to me
Feels like you've gone somewhere without me
Lost in a world of dreams where
I can never be
06| LAST OF DAYS - A Fine Frenzy
The world carries on without you
But nothing remains the same
I'll be lost without you
Until the last of days
TWO // WE CAN LIVE TOGETHER
07| THE BOX - Abney Park
And they said,
Can you see inside the box?
Can you be just like one of us?
For those who can see inside the box will live forever
And all the rest are dying soon
08| IN HER EYES - Josh Groban
She's my inspiration
She's my northern star
I don't count my possessions
All I call mine
I will give her completely
To the end of all time
09| THE TOWER - Vienna Teng
She carries the act so convincingly
The fact is sometimes she believes it
She can be happy with the way things are
Be happy with the things she's done
10| SET THE FIRE TO THE THIRD BAR - Snow Patrol
I'm miles from where you are
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
-
"If you keep moping, Stella's going to laugh at you." "I'm not moping."
11| UNDERTOW - Suzanne Vega
I am friend to the undertow
I take you in, I don't let go
And now I have you
-
"I am the Merines."
12| LET ME BE YOUR ARMOR - Assemblage 23
Let me keep you safe
From the world outside
Let me wipe away the tears
That fill your eyes
-
"You have me. I'll stay with you."
13| WRITING ON THE WALL - Blackmore's Night
Had my heart on a silver chain
With the words engraved
"I loved you"
Like a swan that was lost at sea
I lost all of me
To you
-
"It must have been hard on you, Senel, keeping quiet all this time."
14| NO MORE SAD SONGS - Kyler England
From your rooftop the night sky looks the same
And we thought it would never change
But like you and me, our love, and everything around us
Even the stars drift away
-
"Senel, we'll always be together, right?" "No..."
15| ENJOY THE SILENCE - Depeche Mode
All I ever wanted, all I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are unnecessary
They can only do harm
-
"I am no longer the person who pretended to be your sister."
16| HIGHER GROUND - Kyler England
It’s not because I’d like to forget you
Or bury your memory deep inside
I used to die a little everyday
But in the end it’s just the will to survive
-
"Stella, I'm going. I'm going to Shirley."
17| EDEN - Sarah Brightman
Did I ever think of you
As my enemy
Did you ever think of me
I'm complaining
-
"Quiet! Stay back! If you come any closer, I'll kill you!"
18| I KNOW THE FEELING - The Classic Crime
I know it cuts you inside every time that you try
To take a pathway in life that leaves you so unobliged
Every promise is lies, every smile makes you cry
Leaves you so unalive, so unalive
I wish I could take the fall
-
"You have a place here with us. You're not alone."
19| LOST AT SEA - Eisley
And I'm not so afraid
Lost at sea, as I should be
And I'm not so afraid
Lost at sea, you and I, you and me
-
"So what should I do? What do I want to do?"
20| EVERY TIME IT RAINS - Charlotte Martin
So take it as it comes
And take me as I am
I never was a good imposter
But I know how to dream
And don't know where I stand
-
"I want to start over."
21| QUICKDIVE - Charlotte Martin
Watch me hang onto the spark
Take a breath and close my eyes
Though I'm in the dark
I chase your heart
-
"There are no Ferines. No Orerines. It's just us. We have to do this ourselves."
22| SOMEWHERE ACROSS FOREVER - Stellastar*
When I finally find the words
I'll be coming back to you
If I decide to rule the world
I'm still coming back for you
For you
-
"Let's go join the others." "Yeah, that sounds good."
23| AQUARIUS - Regina Spektor
I'm not a skillful water carrier
But I've learned to carry love
Learned to carry love
-
"Everything will be fine. I trust you."
THREE // EPILOGUE
FRESH FEELING - The Eels
Try to forget what's in the past
Tomorrow is here
Love, orange sky above lighting your way
There's nothing to fear
SHINE - Vienna Teng
Shine with all the untold
Hold the light given unto you
Find the love to unfold
In this broken world we choose
