Damien Rice - 9 Crimes
// (cersei strays)
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse


Abigail Washburn - Bring Me My Queen // (jaime's fierce gilded queen)
Take all my money
Take all my dreams
I'll swim across your ravaging seas
Just don't play me the fool
Don't make it all new
It's time, time, time, time, time
Bring me my queen

She takes all my love
Takes all my notions
Tears them all down to the ground
ooh, bring me my queen


Anais Mitchell (ft. Justin Vernon) - If It's True // (jaime loses his cersei)
If it’s true what they say
If my love is gone for good
They can take this heart away
They can take this flesh and blood
Take my mouth that kissed her mouth
Take my tongue that sung her praise
Take my arms that used to reach out
In the dark to where she lay
If it’s true what they say


Florence + the Machine - Hardest of Hearts // (in jaime's head, in cersei's head)
There is love in your body but you can't get it out
It gets stuck in your head, won't come out of your mouth
Sticks to your tongue and shows on your face
That the sweetest of words have the bitterest taste

Darling heart, I loved you from the start
But you'll never know what a fool I've been
Darling heart, I loved you from the start
But that's no excuse for the state I'm in


Beirut - Postcards from Italy // (jaime longs for his sister, his lover, his wife, his queen)
The times we had
Oh, when the wind would blow with rain and snow
We're not all bad
We put our feet just where they had, had to go

And I will love to see that day
That day is mine
When she will marry me outside with the willow trees
And play the songs we made
They made me so
And I would love to see that day
Her day was mine


Florence + the Machine - Blinding // (jaime sees the real cersei)
Seems that I have been held, in some dreaming state
A tourist in the waking world, never quite awake
No kiss, no gentle word could wake me from this slumber
Until I realise that it was you who held me under

And I could hear the thunder and see the lightning crack
All around the world was waking, I never could go back
Because all the walls of dreaming, they were torn right open
And finally it seemed that the spell was broken


Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton - Nothing and Nowhere
// (jaime and cersei are broken without each other)
Some say we're lost in space,
Some say we're falling off the page.
Some say our life is insane.
But it isn't insane on paper.

Playgrounds are graveyards and all of our scars are permanent, permanent.
There's no replacement for places,
I'll always love you, you're mine.
Numb is the new high, old memories die out 'till
Nothing and nowhere is golden.


Olenka and the Autumn Lovers - Berlin // (jaime reminisces)
What a time in '89
We drank our fill of Russian wine
Your laughter rang through alleyways
And set my heart ablaze
I worshipped you in worn-out jeans
In frigid flats with old latrines
The city lights, they seemed to gleam
More brightly in those days

Now twenty years have come and gone
But still your laughter lingers on

What a time in '89
The world was ours, and you were mine
We sang until the wall came tumbling down
What an awful sound


Katzenjammer - Wading in Deeper // (cersei goes mad)
Two hands that are white,
Can't put up the fight
Bereft of all strength and
The flames in her eyes

The fall is a'coming, closer each morning
It snarls at her heals and
Breathes down her neck
A raven is calling, Promethean warning
The ties to her arms and
Her legs pull her down

Lalalala, wading in deeper
Lalalala, over her head


Regina Spektor - The Call // (cersei calls and jaime answers)
It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word
And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry
I'll come back when you call me
No need to say goodbye

And the award for Taking Songs Literally goes to...

Anyway, I wanted to have some sort of tribute for my beautiful golden twins who absolutely cannot exist without each other but do not realize it. The songs are about them, their relationship, their lives. The whole fanmix can be downloaded HERE.

This is a beautiful mix! I especially love "Postcards from Italy" for Jaime. So heartbreaking.

I agree with [livejournal.com profile] inseaweedswim, "Postcards from Italy" made me go D:. In a good way (I love Beirut).
