inthewildwood | Sevenwaters Fanmix: "she's just like the weather"

01. Bright As Yellow - The Innocence Mission

And I do not want to be a rose.
I do not wish to be pale pink,
but flower scarlet, flower gold.
And have no thorns to distance me,

But be bright,
Bright,
Bright as yellow,
Warm as yellow.

02. What If - Emilie Autumn

I'm the end of your telescope
I don't change just to suit your vision
'Cause I am bound by a fraying rope
Around my hands, tied around my hands

And you close your eyes when I say I'm breaking free
And put your hands over both your ears
Because you cannot stand to believe I'm not
The perfect girl you thought
Well what have I got to lose?

03. Down By The Water - The Decemberists

The season rubs me wrong
The summer swells anon
So knock me down, tear me up
But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup
Down by the water and down by the old main drag

04. Crucify - Tori Amos

Every finger in the room
is pointing at me
I wanna spit in their faces
Then I get afraid of what that could bring
I got a bowling ball in my stomach
I got a desert in my mouth
Figures that my courage would choose to sell out now

I've been looking for a savior in these dirty streets
I've been looking for a savior beneath these dirty sheets

05. Cruel - St. Vincent

Bodies, can't you see what everybody wants from you?
If you could want that, too, then you'll be happy

You were the one waving flares in the air so they could see you
And they were a zephyr, blowing past you,
Blowing fastly so they can see you
Cruel, cruel, oh
Cruel, cruel, oh

06. You Cut Her Hair - Tom McRae

Time
Has coloured in
The black and white
Of your sin
So burn
Burn the flag
Rip it up
Bury the rags

But I will find you still
Move in for the kill
You cut her hair

07. My Skin - Natalie Merchant

I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable

I'm a slow dying flower
Frost killing hour
The sweet turning sour
And untouchable

08. Landscape - Florence + the Machine

She can't see the landscape anymore
It's all painted in her grief
All of her history etched out at her feet

Now all of the landscape, it's just an empty place
Acres of longing, mountains of tenderness

Cause she's just like the weather, can't hold her together
Born from dark water, daughter of the rain and snow
Cause it's burning through the bloodline
It's cutting down the family tree
Growing in the landscape, darling, in between you and me

09. Dancer - Xandria

She walks on the moonlit snow
She's winterhearted, so you say
But you don´t see

She's a dancer on the glass
That's broken like her past
She would never flee

10. Set Fire To The Third Bar - Snow Patrol

After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in
