PLAYLIST

Dance Me to the End of Love by Leonard Cohen
Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin / Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in / Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove / Dance me to the end of love

Come Undone by Isobel Campbell, Mark Lanegan
I'm not scared of the dark though you tangle and tease me / But worse than your bark you said you'd never leave me / The devil make everybody, don't please believe me / Oh love of my life, won't you let me down easy? / Undone, I come undone

Wild is the Wind by David Bowie
With your kiss my life begins / You're spring to me / All things to me / Don't you know you're life itself / For we're like creatures in the wind / And wild is the wind / Wild is the wind

The Beginning is The End is The Beginning by The Smashing Pumpkins
The pale princess of a palace cracked / And now the kingdom comes / Crashing down undone / And I am a master of a nothing place / Of recoil and grace

Where the Wild Roses Grow by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow / And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief / And I kissed her goodbye, said, "All beauty must die" / And I lent down and planted a rose 'tween her teeth

Street Spirit by Radiohead
All these things into position / All these things we'll one day swallow whole / And fade out again and fade out / Immerse your soul in love

Without You I'm Nothing by Placebo, David Bowie
I'm unclean, a libertine / And every time you vent your spleen / I seem to lose the power of speech / You're slipping slowly from my reach / You grow me like an evergreen / You've never seen the lonely me at all

Nothing Really Ends by dEUS
Do you still love me? / Do you feel the same? / Do I have a chance of doing that old dance / With someone I've been pushing away? / And touch, we touched the soul / The very soul, the soul of what we were then / With the old schemes of shattered dreams lying on the floor

Orpheus by David Sylvian
I harbour all the same worries as most / The temptations to leave or to give up the ghost / I wrestle with an outlook on life / That shifts between darkness and shadowy light

I Let Love In by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Despair and deception, love's ugly little twins / Came a-knocking on my door, I let them in / Darling, you're the punishment for all of my former sins / I let love in, I let love in

My Thieving Heart by Sivert Hoyem, Marie Munroe
I may be undone but nothing seems to undo you / You're the lucky one it seems to pass right on through you / I think I know just what you're longing for / You're so much colder than you were before / Oh, my thieving heart

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Well it's my time coming, I'm not afraid, afraid to die / My fading voice sings of love / But she cries to the clicking of time, oh, time / Wait in the fire, wait in the fire

Blue Valentines by Tom Waits
She sends me blue valentines / To mark the anniversary of someone that I used to be / And I didn't think you'd ever find me here / I can never wash the guilt or get these bloodstains off my hands / And it takes a lot of whiskey to make these nightmares go away

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
There's a lover in the story but the story's still the same / There's a lullaby for suffering and a paradox to blame / But it's written in the scriptures and it's not some idol claim / You want it darker / We kill the flame

Let's Pretend by Tindersticks
I know it is, I know we could / I guess we surely would / Let's pretend it's not / It doesn't mean a thing

The Widow by The Mars Volta
He's got fasting black lungs / Made of clove-splintered shards / They're the kind that will talk / Through a wheezing of coughs / And I hear him every night
