Songs for the Characters

Hello, and you're on a roll here Roka4csi and nice poem onenightstand!

I've got another country song up my sleeve (or however it be spelled). It's "Niagra" from Sara Evan's CD 'Restless'
It's an all-ship one, kinda.

Standing at the edge of this cliff
Gravity being what it is
I'm afraid that I might stumble
'Cause I've never been this high
I'm so carried away by this place
And the simple beauty of your face
When the walls start to crumble
And I'm helpless to fight

'Cause you can't ask the sun not to shine
And no one's ever found a way to stop time
Oh baby it's unstoppable
I can't resist at all
I would never try to slow down the wind
Baby it just has to be what it is
And asking me not to love you
Is like asking Niagara not to fall

I can't worry my heart with what if
Maybe I should just give in
And wrap myself around you
And let you take me down
Take me down

'Cause you can't ask the sun not to shine
And no one's ever found a way to stop time
Oh baby it's unstoppable
I can't resist at all
I would never try to slow down the wind
Baby it just has to be what it is
And asking me not to love you
Is like asking Niagara not to fall

Cause you can't ask the sun not to shine,
And no one's ever found a way to stop time,
Oh baby it's unstoppable,
Can't resist at all,
I would never, try to slow down the wind,
Baby it just has to be what it is,
Asking, me not to love you,
Is like askin Niagra, not to fall, ohhh yea
Not to fall
Rain rain rain down on me,
Wash wash wash over me,
Fall fall fall into me,
Ha ha ha
Ha ha ha

->And an added one for Catherine: "Bible Songs" also performed Sara Evans on her "Real Fine Place" album.

No stranger in this town
Nobody moves without making a sound
You live and die within the borders and lines
No one dies without paying their fines

No lovers in this town
The moon's full but it sure ain't round
And just because you lie in his bed
Don't mean he meant the things he said

[1st Chorus]
They marry young in these parts
They work the factories
So I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
So no one would sing some bible song over me

My cousin died in his sleep
Forty pilss, two kids to keep
And how will she explain to those kids
About the sorry thing daddy did

They marry young in these parts
They raise their kids and set them free
So I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
So no one would sing some bible song over me

They buried him out in the cold
He was only twenty-four years old
How his mother came undone
When the choir sang hallelujah

[Chorus]
I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
I ran as fast as I could
Through the tall grass and the midnight woods
Hallelujah Hallelujah - ahh
Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah
Hallelujah hallelujah
Hallelujah
 
I thought that this song could really apply to all the characters because they all have their specific demons to face with. Its really good, its "Name" by the Goo Goo Dolls.

"Name" Goo Goo Dolls

And even though the moment's passed me by
I still cant turn away
'Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Get tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Get lost and thrown away

And now we've grown up orphans I never knew their names
We dont belong to no one thats a shame
You could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name..
And I won't tell em your name

The scars are souvenirs you'll never lose
The past is never far
And did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are?

You grew up way too fast
Now there's nothing to believe
And re-runs all become our history
A tired song keeps playin on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name...
And I won't tell em your name
I won't tell em your name...I won't tell em your name

I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same...
It's lonely where you are, come back down
And I won't tell em your name
 
Thank you 9dots4lines yet another fan i have...and yes, Roka4csi is always on a roll...she know i love her ;)

now heres a song that could be for any ship where a guy wants to tell her to fuc* off. it's called "face to face" by Sevendust...



You can't stop f**king with my head
Stop f**cking with my head!

Don't tell me now with a smile on your face
That you're lost...down and out
When there was nothing left in me

You can't stop f**kin' with my head
Stop f**kin' with my head
My silence you break
The smile that you fake (you fake)

[Chorus:]
There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say "I'm leavin"
And if you're not...then please tell me why
Please tell me why you can't

Save face
Say it to my face

Can I take all the filth in your head
All the words that you said (that you said)
And throw it away (throw it out)

You can't stop f**kin' with my head
Stop f**kin' with my head
My silence you break
The smile that you take away

[Chorus:]
There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say "I'm leavin"
And if you're not...then please tell me why
Please tell me why you can't

That sh*t you're talkin' don't mean nothing to me anymore
Limp dick...you f**k stick...let's settle the score
Run and hide you know I'll find you anywhere
Motherf**ker...two faced prick with hell to pay
What's real is real...it's time to step up to the plate again
Swing batter-batter, swing batter-batter, swing...
What's real is real...it's time to step up to the plate again
Swing batter-batter...f**ked me for the last time!

Just take a swing...
C'mon...you should've taken that swing...
Just take your swing...

[Chorus:]
There's not one thing that you can say to make it right
Unless you say "I'm leavin"
And if you're not...then please tell me why
Please tell me why you can't

Swing...just take your swing...f**k you!

Just take your swing...
You can't stop f**kin' with my head
Stop f**kin' with my head


Haahahhaa....enjoyy!
 
I like "The Closest Thing To Crazy" for angsty GSR.



How can I think I'm standing strong,
Yet feel the air beneath my feet?
How can happiness feel so wrong?
How can misery feel so sweet?
How can you let me watch you sleep,
Then break my dreams the way you do?
How can I have got in so deep?
Why did I fall in love with you?

CHORUS:
This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
I was never crazy on my own…
And now I know that there's a link between the two,
Being close to craziness and being close to you.

How can you make me fall apart
Then break my fall with loving lies?
It's so easy to break a heart;
It's so easy to close your eyes.
How can you treat me like a child
Yet like a child I yearn for you?
How can anyone feel so wild?
How can anyone feel so blue?

CHORUS

...and being close to you, and being close to you.
 
Lost Cause: Beck

Your sorry eyes cut through the bone
They make it hard to leave you alone
Leave you here wearing your wounds
Waving your guns at somebody new

Baby you're lost
Baby you're lost
Baby you're a lost cause

There's too many people you used to know
They see you coming they see you go
They know your secrets and you know theirs
This town is crazy; nobody cares

Baby you're lost
Baby you're lost
Baby you're a lost cause

I'm tired of fighting
I'm tired of fighting
Fighting for a lost cause

There's a place where you are going
You ain't never been before
No one left to watch your back now
No one standing at your door
That's what you thought love was for

Baby you're lost
Baby you're lost
Baby you're a lost cause

I'm tired of fighting
I'm tired of fighting
Fighting for a lost cause

I thought that would be a good song for Sara.
 
I saw this one and i thought of it for either talleigh or snickers....

I won't talk
I won't breathe
I won't move till you finally see
That you belong with me

You might think
I don't look
But deep inside in the corner of my mind
I'm attached to you

I'm weak
It's true
Cause I'm afraid to know the answer
Do you want me too?
Cause my heart keeps falling faster

I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
It's time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited

This is true

You don't know
What you do
Every time you walk into the room
I'm afraid to move

I'm weak
It's true
I'm just scared to know the ending
Do you see me too?
Do you even know you met me?

I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
It's time to try, anything to be with you
All my life I've waited

This is true

I know when I go
I'll be on my way to you
The way that's true

I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
It's time to try, anything to be with you
All my life I've waited

This is true

Its called True by Ryan Cabera
 
this one is for Nick and his childhood

Sic Transit Gloria.... Glory Fades - Brand New
Keep the noise low,
She doesn't wanna blow it,
Shaking head to toe
while your left hand does the "show me around"
Quickens your heartbeat,
It beats me straight into the ground.

You don't recover from a night like this.
A victim, still lying in bed, completely motionless.
A hand moves in the dark to a zipper.
Hear a boy bracing tight against sheets
barely whisper, "This is so messed up."

Upon arrival the guests had all stared.
Dripping wet and clearly depressed,
he'd headed straight for the stairs.
No longer cool, but a boy in a stitch,
unprepared for a life full of lies and failing relationships.

(Up the stairs: the station where
the act becomes the art of growing up.)

He keeps his hands low.
He doesn't wanna blow it.
He's wet from head to toe and
his eyes give her the up and the down.
His stomach turns and he thinks of throwing up.
But the body on the bed beckons forward
and he starts growing up.

The fever, the focus.
The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to sell.
Die young and save yourself.
The tickle, the taste of...
It used to be the reason i breathed, but now its choking me up.
Die young and save yourself.

She hits the lights.
This doesn't seem quite fair.
Despite everything he learned from his friends,
he doesn't feel so prepared.
She's breathing quiet and smooth.
He's gasping for air.
"This is the first and last time," he says.
She fakes a smile and presses her hips into his.
He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides.
He's holding back from telling her
exactly what it really feels like.

He is the lamb, she is the slaughter.
She's moving way too fast and all he wanted was to hold her.
Nothing that he tells her's really having an effect.
He whispers that he loves her,
but she's probably only looking for...

(Up the stairs: the station where
the act becomes the art of growing up.)

So much more than he could ever give.
A life free of lies and a meaningful relationship.
He keeps his hands pinned down at his sides.
He waits for it to end
and for the aching in his guts to subside.

The fever, the focus.
The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to sell.
Die young and save yourself.
The tickle, the taste of...
It used to be the reason i breathed, but now its choking me up.
Die young and save yourself.

Up the stairs: the station where
the act becomes the art of growing up.

The fever, the focus.
The reasons that I had to believe you weren't too hard to sell.
Die young and save yourself.
The tickle, the taste of...
It used to be the reason i breathed, but now its choking me up.
Die young and save yourself.
 
I think that this song would be good for any character. But mostly I put this for Grissom. You guys should download it, its an awesome song! Its "Anthem of Our Dying Day" by Story of the Year

"Anthem Of Our Dying Day"

The stars will cry
The blackest tears tonight
And this is the moment that I live for
I can smell the ocean air
And here I am
Pouring my heart onto these rooftops
Just a ghost to the world
That's exactly
Exactly what I need

From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day

For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
As you gasp for air tonight
I'd scream this song right in your face
If you were here
I swear I won't miss a beat
Cause I never
Never have before

From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day

Of our dying day
Of our dying day
Of our dying!!!

For a second I wish the tide
Would swallow every inch of this city
And you gasp for air tonight!!

From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day
From up here the city lights burn
Like a thousand miles of fire
And I'm here to sing this anthem
Of our dying day

Our dying day
Of our dying!!!

Nick Songs


Wake Up Dead Man bY U2 song with a Christian undertone by reminded me of Nick's angst

Jesus, Jesus Help Me
I'm alone in this world
And a fucxed up world it is too
Tell me the story
The one about eternity
The way it's all gonna be

Wake Up Dead Man! - REPEAT

Jesus, I'm waiting here boss
I know you're looking out for us
But maybe your hands aren't free
Your father who made the world in seven
He's in charge of Heaven
Could you put in a good word for me.

Jesus, you're just around the corner
Did you think to try and warn her
Were you working on something new

If there's an order
In all of this disorder
Is it like a tape recorder
Could you rewind it just one more
 
This makes me think of Nick when he left Dallas and what he finds out when he gets to Vegas.

Gone By U2

You get to feel SO guilty
You got so much for so little
Then you thought the feeling would just go away
You were holding onto everything so tightly
Till there's nothing for you anyways

Good bye
You can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down

You wanted to get somewhere so badly
You had to lose yourself along the way
You changed your name but that's okay
It was necessary
What you leave behind you don't miss anyways.

Goodbye
You can keep this suit of lights
I'll be up with the sun
I'm not coming down 3x

Cause I'm already gone
Felt that heat all along
Closer to you everyday day
Didn't want it all that much anyways
You're taking steps that make you feel dizzy
Then you you learn to like the way you feel
You hurt yourself, you hurt your lover
Then you discover
What you thought was freedom is just greed.

Goodbye, and its' an emotional goodnight
I'll be up with the sun
But your still holding on
I'm not coming down.
 
this little bit is for Cath---she just get someone :(

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

 
well, it was in Shrek 2 :lol: that's how I got it, and it's from Jennifer Saunders..but the original is Bonnie Tyler....hope that helps you out :)
 
I thought this song would really suit Catherine...

Red Blooded Woman: Kylie Minogue

(Uh, uh, uhh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, oh, uh yeah, yeah, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh)

You've been bruised, you've been broken

Then there's my mind saying think before you go,

You got me spinning round, round, round, round (Like a record),
I can't focus it's too hot (Inside),
You'll never get to Heaven if you're scared of getting high

Boy, boy,

When this girl wants to ride with you.
