The Levy
Have you ever thought "Man my life should be a tv show"? Well
inevitable012did and enlisted me to help. We thought what if her life really was a tv show. Who would the characters be? What would they look like? And most importantly, what would the soundtrack be like? I want to create something that could give you just a taste of the characters she has in her world.
This Fall (or perhaps one in the future) tune in to watch The Levy.
Theme Song: Röyksopp
|The Girl And The Robot (Ocelot Remix)
So you want to understand me
You just see what you want to see
There's no way I can help you out
You don't know what it's all about
Fell asleep again in front of MTV
God, I'm down at the bottom
No one's singing songs for me
I can't wait for tomorrow
Mountain Goats
|This Year
i am going to make it through this year
if it kills me
Courtney
She's a robot. Emotionless, no feelings, all that jazz. At least, that's the way she tries to project herself. Sometimes it's just easier to just pretend to have no feelings at all.
The Beach Boys
|I just wasn’t made for these times
I keep looking for a place to fit
Where I can speak my mind
I've been trying hard to find the people
That I won't leave behind
They say I got brains
But they ain't doing me no good
I wish they could
Each time things start to happen again
I think I got something good goin' for myself
But what goes wrong
Sometimes I feel very sad
Sometimes I feel very sad
(Can't find nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)
…
Every time I get the inspiration
To go change things around
No one wants to help me look for places
Where new things might be found
Where can I turn when my fair weather friends cop out
What's it all about
Viviana
She deserves so much better than what she's getting. Courtney used and abused her, and Viviana still stuck by her side, and when Courtney broke down, there she was to pick up the pieces. The distance between them is an obstacle, but somehow they make it work. She gets Courtney in ways no one else ever could, and is always there in a pinch, even if all Courtney needs is something that makes her laugh. Viviana's the truest of friends Courtney's ever known, and that's something Courtney will never forget.
The Cribs
|I’m a Realist
I'm a realist
I'm a romantic
I'm an indecisive piece of shit
…
I know that it's only a matter of time Before you know it I'll be leaving town See it in my eyes No one will do No one will ever do
Courtney // Viviana
Thao Nguyen with the Get Down Stay down
|Know Better Learn Faster
I can't do the real thing
I hurt all my feelings
You gotta keep it kind
You make it a mean while
What a shameful way to be the same
But I need you to be
Better than me
And you need me to do
Better than you
I disarm you in the morning
I disarm you in the morning
I disarm you in the morning
But I was up in arms all night
Haley
Spunky and ferocious, being Haley's friend comes with it's fair share of ups and downs. She's passionate, often hilarious and a little clingy. She's got some issues, sure, but who doesn't? She loves intensely and has a lot to offer; she just needs to find someone that can take her as she is, flaws and all.
Evan Greer
|I want something
she's sittin in a bathroom stall
with a marker in her hand
scribbling down the words
to her favorite song by her favorite band
and she hopes someone will read them
and maybe they'll understand
how it feels
to care so much it hurts
to fight so hard you shake
to love so intensely that it scares you
to build so much that something breaks
she knows that she's not the only one
but sometimes it sure feels that way
Chanel
One would see her as the leader, as the person who made all the group's decisions. She's outgoing and loud and always ready for a wholesome good time. Despite her seemingly gregarious personality, Chanel has less of a genuine love of being around people and more of a need to feel included. She's a good person and a great friend, just make sure you have the same views as her or you might be in for a rough ride.
The Runaways
|Queens of Noise
Cause we're the queens of noise
Come and get it boys
Queens of noise
Not just one of your toys
Rory
He's a little off his rocker, but everyone loves Rory, even when they really probably shouldn't. He enjoys a good alcohol fueled party now andthen to try and block out the real world and all its failings, but catch him at one of his mellow times and he'll open your eyes to some interesting things.
Big Boi Ft. Gucci Mane
|Shine Blockas
Trying to block to my shine ain’t gonna happen
so don’t try
…
I’m on my grind shawty
Don’t block my shine shawty
Brittany
Everyone has a friend like Brittany. We really try to see the best in them, to take note of the times where they say say something valid and important, but really, it's all so surface. She likes her boys and her clothes and bitching at her parents for no particular reason. That's just who she is, and either you love her for that and enjoy her company, or you GTFO. 'Nuff said
Semi Precious Weapons
|Magnetic Baby
It's not my fault I look better in her party dress
It's not my fault that she left her slutty girlfriend
It's not my fault, this's how my momma made me
I been magnetic since I was a baby
It's not my fault I look cuter in his boxing gloves
It's not my fault that she left you for my shiny tongue
It's not my fault, this's how my daddy made me
I been magnetic since I was a baby
Jake
Jake. Words alone do him no justice. He's a true observer; he's able to see what most people can't -- or choose not to. While his quips and philosophical ponderings can wear on the nerves of some (*cough*Haley*cough*), he's always able to make people really think. His musings have opened Courtney up to things she never thought about, and she hopes he continues to challenge her mind in the future.
School of Seven Bells
|iamundernodisguise
I am neither breather nor speaker
I am neither walker nor sleeper
I am neither sister brother son nor daughter
Solely in my chest is my heart a drum of water
I am under no disguise
Carly
She's blonde. She's popular. She's attractive. She's the little sister. That title often times makes her the antagonist for no real reason. She and Courtney don't see eye to eye all too often, with Carly being everything Courtney never was and never could be, but there are times when the two of them sit down and talk and it feels like maybe, one day, everything could work out okay between the two of them.
Peaches
|Boys wanna be her
You've got them all, by the balls
…
To you they crawl, body sprawl
Smokin' Pall Malls
Close call, stand tall
Doll, you make them feel so small
Alyssa // Courtney
Where to begin with this one? Alyssa switches from good friend to love interest to antagonist so quickly and so many times that it's hard to place her. Courtney wants to point the blame at her, and does so often, but Alyssa is only at fault for so much. She's crazy, a compulsive liar and a bit of a slut, but Courtney took advantage of her while she was weak and that's how this whole tumultuous affair began. The question is no longer if something explosive will happen between these two, but when.
Genesis Vs. Justin Timberlake
|That’s all
but why does it always seem to be
me looking at you, you looking at me
it's always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
Turning me on, turning me off,
making me feel like I want too much
living with you's just putting me through it all of the time
running around, staying out all night
taking it all instead of taking one bite
living with you's just putting me through it all of the time
…
But just as I thought it was going alright
I find out I'm wrong when I thought I was right
it's always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
Well I could say day, and you'd say night
tell me it's black when I know that it's white
it's always the same, it's just a shame, that's all
The Bird and the Bee
| Again and Again
Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again
Again and again
It's a shame, it's a shame
It's a perfect shame
Creep under my door and we do it again, oh
It's easy and easy and easy and easy
And creepy and creepy and creepy, oh
Again, again, again, again
…
It's stupid how we always seem to do it again, oh
...
I hate you, I want you
Bon Iver
|Skinny Love
now all your love is wasted?
then who the hell was I?
now i’m breaking at the britches
and at the end of all your lines
who will love you?
who will fight?
who will fall far behind?
Courtney // Julie
Though not a part of the posse, Courtney is drawn to her in a way she's never been drawn to anyone before. There's an air of mystery about her, and something in her eyes that screams she has more depth than what she allows to come through. She's the kind of girl that makes someone want to fall in love...
Angus and Julia Stone
|Just a Boy
I bit my tongue in the awkward conversation.
I don't know why.
I don't know why.
I met you once and I'd fallen for your notions.
I don't know why.
I don't know why.
Do you believe that there's treasures in the ocean?
…
That big old smile is all you wore
Girl you make me want to feel
Things I never felt before
Girl you make me want to feel
As Tall as Lions
|Maybe I’m Just Tired
I want you to know,
right from hello,
your love just kept me wondering.
Well maybe I'm just tired,
tired of never knowing.
I know i'm not good enough for you.
If I can be saved,
show me the way.
Help me help myself baby.
Don't be confused,
our love is true.
Just tell by the way I'm looking at you.
Bloc Party
|Halo
It was your hair that did it
It was your hair that lit the fuse
A golden-brown halo
Like sunlight peeling through trees
I ask you for the time
But I am asking for so much more
A moth to your light bulb
You made my heart beat faster
…
Behind your eyes were stars
Infinite and serene
How I could suffer for you
You fascinate and magnetize me
Paralyze me with your kiss
Wipe those dirty hands on me
Maybe we're looking for the same thing
Maybe you're the one who'll complete me
The National
|Slow Show
I want to start over, I want to be winning
way out of sync from the beginning
I wanna hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I’m very, very frightening
I’ll overdo it
The Gang
A band of misfits if you've ever seen one is the only way to describe the kids of The Levy. At first glance no one would even be able to give you an inkling of an idea as to why they were friends. Somehow, though, despite all of their insecurities and insanity and drama, they were friends with an unbreakable bond. It was a rule of thumb that if you messed with one of them then you'd better watch out, because these kids have each others' backs. Always
Florence + The Machine
|The Dog Days are Over
The dog days are gone
Can you hear the horses because here they come
