This is a fanmix for
thisissirius 's
apocabigbang fic! It's a lovely story, and I hope that this does it justice.
And The World Is All At Our Feet
1. Nothing But A Fire - Jon Black
(Used to be a hopeful dreamer/ Just another hopeful dreamer/ Now I’m waking up)
2. Sunday Morning - Beck (Velvet Underground Cover)
(Watch out the world’s behind you/ There’s always someone around you who will call/ It’s nothing at all)
3. Hold On To What You Believe - Mumford and Sons
(I can’t promise you that I will be the only one around/ when your hope falls down… But hold on to what you believe in the light/ When the darkness has robbed you of all your sight)
4. Who Will - Will Stratton
(Who will burn our clothes and tend to our wounds/ And look back for me and you?/ Who will close our eyes?/ There’s so much left to see/ So many of my dreams)
5. Hold You In My Arms - Jon Foreman
(This is where we’ll shake the nightmare free/ I dream to hold you in my arms/ To hold you in my arms/ Wide awake in my arms)
6. Displaced - Azure Ray
(I think I’m turned around/ I’m looking up/ Not looking down/ And when I’m standing still/ Watching you run/ Watching you fall/ Fall into me)
7. Neon Sky - Starsailor
(Three thousand miles from home/ My fragile heart was on the run/ And in the cold dark night/ I realized what I had done)
8. The Scenic World - Beirut
(When I feel alive/ I try to imagine a careless life/ A scenic world where the sunsets are/ Breathtaking)
9. The Breeze - Dr. Dog
(Are there dark parts in your mind?/ Hidden secrets left behind?/ Where no on ever goes/ When everybody knows it’s alright)
10. O’ What a Nightmare! - Margot & the Nuclear So and So’s
(I can’t believe we got warm by a fire/ Fed by my manuscript, what a nightmare/ But your hands looked so cold, I was feeling ashamed/ So I set them aflame)
11. Perfect Time - We Shot The Moon
(The longest mile I’ll walk with you/ If your sky falls I’ll pull you through/ And I love you, for who you are/ And I love you, stay who you are)
(You are, you are the only one for me/ I tried for years to get this right/ And I’m not about to lose this fight)
12. Gone - Andy Shauf
Will you write something new/ Will you find another tale to travel to/ Will you miss me when I’m gone, gone, gone/ Everything’s leaving)
13. To Save Me - M. Ward
(Yeah, he could strike a match and your world goes up in flames/ He spins a big, blue bal and the night turns to day/ To save me, to save me, just to save me/ Save me from sailing over the edge)
14. We’ll Be Fine - Matt Pryor
(All in a long life, that I’ve learned these days will pass/ It happens too slow, so we drown/ Drown ‘em all.)
15. Love - Snowglobe
(Once I had a nightmare/ That hung over my crown/ And everywhere I traveled/ It followed like a cloud/ My head was like a graveyard of broken memories/ Burried I’d forgotten/ Not dead, but sound asleep)
*I only realized after I put this together that it was made up of almost all male vocalists! In spite of it being a mix for a story about the apocalypse there are a few upbeat songs thrown in there. Hope you enjoy, and let me know what you think!
