Adagio for Strings (ft. Maiday) // Bastille
The Captain and Hourglass | Laura Marling
The wind and I, we speak the same, but he don’t hear so well.
You’re gonna have to curse him well you’re gonna have to yell.
The sky and I, we’ve had our fights and I’m coming round to rain,
If the rain come round and it don’t go out, then I’ll never have to speak again,
I can tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.
Can tick tick tick tick tick tick tick away.
Another second lost with every fallen grain.

singing ‘nobody will ever remember me’”
“A composer, but never composed
singing the symphonies of the overdosed”

Sugar, We’re Goin’ Down // Fall Out Boy
We’re going down, down in an earlier round
And Sugar, we’re going down swinging
I’ll be your number one with a bullet
A loaded gun complex, cock it and pull it

But they keep saying we laugh just a little too loud.
We stand just a little too close.
We stare just a little long.
