So I realised that there are some songs that I associate with Clint Barton, and hey, I'm writing a story from his POV, so having songs that put me in his head might be a plan, right? And then I gave it a title, and guys, you know how it goes when you name things, you end up falling in love with them and keeping them forever and ever. But this, this is a thing that I can share! So here it is, 16 songs, 1.4 hours. Um. It got long. (Blame all my Clint Feels.)
Runaway || The National
Throw your arms in the air tonight
We don't bleed when we don't fight
But I won't be no runaway
'Cause I wont run
New York State Of Mind || Billy Joel
I'm talking a Greyhound
On the Hudson River Line
I'm in a New York state of mind
Leave No Man Behind || Black Hawk Down soundtrack
Instrumental
Lemonworld || The National
Living and dying in New York it means nothing to me
I gave my heart to the Army
The only sentimental thing I could think of
Minstrel Boy || Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros
The minstrel boy to the war has gone
In the ranks of death you will find him
His father's sword he has girded on
And his wild harp slung behind him
Vale of Plenty || Hans Zimmer
Instrumental
Welcome To The Black Parade || My Chemical Romance
Son when you grow up
Would you be the savior of the broken
The beaten and the damned?
He said will you
Defeat them
Your demons
And all the nonbelievers
The plans that they have made?
Dogs & Thunder || John Gorka
You can't go home again
Can't outrun the past
The future is water in your hands
Not a polished piece of glass
Your Hand In Mine || Explosions In The Sky
Instrumental
Looking For Astronauts || The National
It's a little too late, too late, too late for this
Isn't it a little too late for this?
Comptine d'Un Autre Ere || Yann Tiersen
Instrumental
Soldier After All || John Gorka
Maybe I won't make much of a difference
And all I do won't make a hill of beans
I can't bestow riches on my children
Unless I can show what love and kindness mean
If you believe what's right is right
Then you will always have to fight
I guess I am a soldier after all
First Breath After Coma || Explosions In The Sky
Instrumental
Love Loss Hope Repeat || Carbon Leaf
Take a walk down town, and dream with me
We'll walk the parks and the empty streets
You know the seasons ought to be
Love, loss, hope, repeat
Stars || Christopher Mitchell
Instrumental
My Body Is A Cage || Peter Gabriel
I'm standing on a stage
Of fear and self-doubt
It's a hollow play
But they'll clap anyway
