Hello tumblr user charliesvarietyhour, please have 5 songs from my as-of-yet unreleased RJ playlist. I hoped to release it with next chapter, but I know in my music gremlin heart that it's not complete yet.

No matter what shape RJ's playlist takes, the first song will always be Liquid Swords. The first words in my fic are copied from the monologue at the beginning, which was sampled from Shogun Assassin; a film compiled from the Lone Wolf and Cub jidaigeki movies for Western audiences.

NOTHING'S FOREVER, DUDE!!! NOTHING'S FOREVER, DUUUDE!!! I'VE LOST SO MUCH I'M RUNNING OUT OF THINGS TO LOOOOOSE! OH, I GET SO EMBARRASSED WHEN I HEAR MY VOICE AND IT'S NOT LIKE IN MY HEAD! IF I GOT A NEW VOCAL COACH, THEN I COULD HIT THE NOTES, YOU'D FALL IN LOVE AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But did you know I held my breath through every tunnel? And I wish I could get over this feeling of slipping under, I never get that far-

I ain't got a dime in these ol' worn out jeans, so I'll stop eating steak and I'll go back to beans. I'll pick up a ten spot in Prescott, I know, Ridin' the broncs in the big rodeo-

SOMETIIIIIIMES, I WANNA TAKE THE CAR OUT ON THE ROAD, FLIP IT INTO PARK AND SMASH MYSELF INTO A MILLION LITTLE PIECES! I'M TIRED OF KNOWING WHAT ABOUT MYSELF IS WRONG, BUT NEVER MUSTERING UP THE RESOLVE TO REALLY TRY TO CHANGE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!

BONUS: two songs from my hometown that aren't on spotify because I miss the scrappy little music scene I had back home
