We Play The Game They Fix
- a Merlin/Arthur fanmix



How stern are the woes of the desolate mourner
As he bends in still grief o'er the hallowed bier
- Percy Bysshe Shelley

Flat Of The Blade - Massive Attack ft. Guy Garvey
How does it feel, the weight of the steel?
The weight of the steel, the flat of the blade.
How does it feel to kneel at defeat,
At the choices you make?


Kettering - the Antlers
I didn't believe them when they told me,
That there was no saving you.


The Storm - Doves
Don't give up, be strong.
Don't be sad I'm gone.


Black Fur - Fredrik
Noble blood will nobly die.

If It's True - Anaïs Mitchell ft. Justin Vernon
If it's true what they say,
If my love is gone for good,
You can take this heart away,
And can take this flesh and blood.


42 - Coldplay
Those who are dead are not dead,
They're just living in my head.
And since I fell for that spell,
I am living there as well.


This Empty Northern Hemisphere - Gregory Alan Isakov
While you were sleeping, you bet that I might,
Walk this empty northern hemisphere wide.
And the kingdom it came, well it all fell down,
And it all fell to dust.


Bixby Canyon Bridge - Death Cab For Cutie
I descended a dusty gravel ridge beneath the Bixby Canyon Bridge,
Until I eventually arrived at the place where your soul had died.
Barefoot in the shallow creek, I grabbed some stones from underneath,
And waited for you to speak to me.

In the silence it became so very clear,
That you had long ago disappeared.
I cursed myself for being surprised,
That this didn't play like it did in my mind.


I Still Do - I Am Kloot
When I was a boy I looked out at the sea,
Thought I saw you and me,
In the waves on the breeze.

I still do.


Been So Long - Vetiver
I can't believe that you're knocking,
Knocking on my door,
Oh, it's been so long, been so long,
Fate has a way of showing I'm where you belong.

Kylieeeee, why do you make me listen to Death Cab For Cutie, I can't stand Death Cab For Cutie. ;o;
The worst thing is that I actually liked it.


I think I might have swallowed a few tears at 'I Still Do', and really, this shouldn't be so good, it's a bit criminal.

I also fell in love with Doves. A lot. ♥

tl;dr: I LOVE YOU, YOU ARE AWESOME, THIS IS AWESOME.

Dude, I know, alright, I KNOW. Despite my aversion to them, I somehow have all their albums and I will defend to the death my belief Ben Gibbard is a brilliant lyricist. Aaaand, to be honest, I think I could actually get off to the drums during the last two minutes of Bixby, I swear, they are dead sexy. But that's probably just me. IT IS VOODOO, I SWEAR.

I knooow! I was having such trouble finding songs for this mix and I swear I must have listened to over 6000 on my iPod and then one night this song came on and I'm like, SOBSOB THIS IS PERFECT.

Doves are really ace, they're one of those bands where I don't think I'd ever put one of their albums on to vibe to, but they have someone ridiculously amazing individual tracks. My favourite song possibly ever is by them actually. Umm, here, Pounding (http://www.mediafire.com/?bnsztdmtm4y), if you're interested.

THANK YOU. For taking, for commenting, for being an absolute dear ♥

I didn't pay that much attention to the drums the first time around, so you now made me listen to it again. D: Shame on you.
(But you're kinda right.)

Oh. Oh. I'm sure I know that song for from somewhere, but I just can't pin it down at the moment.
It's a bit annoying.
But I kind of love the line
In and out of love
and institutions

I don't know why, it's just great.

It's not the most stellar song ever or anything, but there's something about the downer lyrics and uplifting music that just hits home for me. At the very least, it was my favourite song of the last decade <3

Yeah, I like it a lot. <3
(Just bought the album it's on actually. )
Now if I could figure out where I heard it before... x.x

Oooh, yay, nice choice, check out N.Y., Friday's Dust and Last Broadcast especially. N.Y. has more incredible drumming.

I think they were indie darlings early on in the new millenium, it's possible you heard them on the radio?

Now you're making me curious for it. ;o;
It'll need a good week to arrive, because I had to order from .co.uk instead of .de

Na, don't think so.
German radio doesn't play these kind of things.
We have a strictly!pop radio, unfortunately.

But! I just remembered that it's on one of the mixtapes my best friend made me that I can't listen to anymore, because my recorder is broken. ;o;

I hope you like it, out of the five albums I have of theirs, that one is probably my favourite.

Oooh, there you go! Well, your friend has awesome taste, clearly XD
