tracklist, youtube links, and selected lyrics under the cut
All Tomorrow's Parties - The Velvet Underground
For Thursday's child is Sunday's clown for whom none will go mourning
A blackened shroud, a hand-me-down gown of rags and silks, a costume
Fit for one who sits and cries for all tomorrow's parties
I Found a Whistle - MGMT
I found a whistle that hangs like a charm,
And when my noose is tied I could blow it
And fall down into your arms
15 centuries of dissolution and grief,
To return a yellow trickster and a thief
Beatrix - Cocteau Twins
Leave It Open - Kate Bush
Harm in us, but power to arm
Harm is in us
Harm in you and in me!
What you letting in?
Tell me what you're letting in
Say what we're gonna let in!
"We let the weirdness in."
Let the Poison Spill From Your Throat - The Faint
There's no climbing up that list
You just move down it one by one
You hate this and this and love that it shows
The Tower - Pure Bathing Culture
so many faces i can't see,
they're echoing things i can't believe
i hear the tower's tone,
don't tell me that i'm alone
Accelerate - Susanne Sundfør
Many people will get hurt
Take your time, I'll finish your dessert
Don't look evil right in your eye
If you can, you can
Wars erupting like volcanoes
Blood streaming down the walls
It's out of our hands, so baby let go
Final Girl - Chvrches
Telling all the tales took time that I just do not have
Sifting further through the wreckage, I think you just have to laugh
Try to take it back as it turns to black
Don't want to find your daughter in a body bag
So I need to get out now while most of me is still intact
The Cave - Moonface
But hatred's wrapped like a tentacle round your leg
It drags you deeper and deeper down the cave
You try and try and you try to get away
Gloria - Patti Smith
Melting in a pot of thieves
Wild card up my sleeve
Thick heart of stone
My sins my own
They belong to me, me!
Deeper Than Love - Colleen Green
And that possibility worries me the most
Not harm or abuse or becoming a ghost
It's the closeness, the intimacy
I'm afraid it might kill me
Marrow - St. Vincent
Muscle connects to the bone and bone to the ire and the marrow
So I pretend there aren't ten strings tied to all ten of my fingers
Don't Fall - Chameleons
Don't fall
I know your back's against the wall
But this roaring silence won't devour us all
Smile! No One Cares How You Feel - The Gothic Archies
Smile: no one cares how you feel
Be vicious, vain, and vile
Everything's yours to steal if you just smile
Have you no dignity? Have you no sense of style?
You'll never be pretty until you smile
Smile: no one cares how you feel
There's a world to be got
You can make this world kneel if you'll just smile
Always the best disguise, a license to defile
Everyone you despise will die: so smile
At Least I'm Not As Sad (As I Used to Be) - fun.
So I left, that is it. That's my life, nothing is sacred-
I don't keep friends, I keep acquainted.
I'm not a prophet, but I'm here to profit!
That's all, I'm gone! That's my life, nothing is sacred.
I don't fall in love, I just fake it.
I don't fall in love. I don't fall in love.
Final Act - Deaf School
did you see their eyes
hear their sighs
pleading for more at the last curtain call
i could weep, i’m ready for sleep
