hh_clubs | Music Club: Character Fanmix (Term XXIII Activity #01) VOTING

Activity: Character Fanmix
Points: 1st/2nd/3rd/Participation Only: 50/40/30/10 points.
Deadline: Vvoting ends on Sunday, May 20th @ 21:59 UTC. (timezone converter).
Details: Create a fanmix starring your favourite HP character (or OTP); meaning, design a cover (max. 500x500px) and provide a minimum of five Youtube links to songs that you feel represent your character perfectly, as well as a tiny blurb/description of what you wanted to portray. Mind that the focus lies on the music, not the art. This doesn't mean that you can't put effort in it, though!

-.- I should really start to remember my own deadlines. Anyway, thank you all so much for your amazing participation!

You'll receive two points for voting as always; don't vote for yourself and don't ask others to vote for you! Also, remember that focus of the mix lies on the music (which includes the lyrics, of course) and not the graphic :)

#01. Cover:

Blurb: This fanmix is all about how Ginny is independent and gets stuff done for herself. She doesn't need Harry to make her a strong female.
Songs: Independent Women by Destiny's Child Independent Women by Destiny's Child
All the women who are independent
Throw your hands up at me
All the honeys who makin' money
Throw your hands up at me
All the mommas who profit dollas
Throw your hands up at me
All the ladies who truly feel me
Throw your hands up at me

Miss Independent by Kelly Clarkson
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance
Miss unafraid
Miss out of my way
Miss don't let a man interfere, no
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne

Fighter by Christina Aguilera
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter

Run the World (Girls) by Beyonce
It's hot up in here
DJ don't be scared to run this, run this back
I'm reppin' for the girls who taking over the world
Help me raise a glass for the (hogwarts?) college grads

Firework by Katy Perry
You don't have to feel like a wasted space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time, you'll know

#02. Cover:

Blurb: My OTP has, and always will be, James and Lily. This fanmix is dedicated to their evolved relationship, from one of hate (at least on Lily's side) to one of lovey dovey feelings that make me cry tears of happiness (and eventual sadness).
Songs: I've Just Seen a Face-The Beatles
I've just seen a face,
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met, she's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see we've met

You've Really Got a Hold On Me-Smokey Robinson and the Miracles
I don't like you, but I love you
Seems that I'm always thinkin' of you
You treat me badly, I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me

This is My Idea-The Swan Princess
I see him smiling and my knees start buckling
I see inside him and my doubts are gone

Here (In Your Arms)-Hellogoodbye
Well you are the one, the one that lies close to me
Whispers "Hello, I've missed you quite terribly"
I fell in love, in love with you suddenly
Now there's no place else I could be but here in your arms

I Will Follow You Into the Dark-Death Cab for Cutie
Love of mine
Someday you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

#03. Cover:

Back:

Blurb: I want to say this fanmix centers on Tonks, but the truth is, when you consider what her world revolves around you can't help adding tracks which focus on how she feels about other people, too, like Remus and Teddy. So this is more a fanmix about her relationships with people, how she sees herself and people see her. As well as how she grows through the series, all the way until her death. There's some head!canon going into this but hopefully it still makes sense. :)
Songs: 01. Jon McLaughlin - Beautiful Disaster
{ Tonks, pre-series }
She loves her momma's lemonade
Hates the sounds that goodbyes make
She prays one day she'll find someone to need her

02. Florence + The Machine - Shake It Out
{ Tonks, Order of the Phoenix }
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my rope
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope

03. Marie Digby - Spell
{ Tonks and Remus, sometime before Half-Blood Prince }
An empty stage
With nothing but this girl
Who's singing this simple melody
And wearing her heart on her sleeve

04. A Fine Frenzy - Happier
{ Tonks and Remus, near the end of Half-Blood Prince }
Shoot me with your rubber bullets
Your finger's on the trigger, pull it
I know you want this suffering to end
So it is forgivable my friend

05. Ingrid Michaelson - You and I
{ Tonks and Remus, Deathly Hallows }
Well, you might be a bit confused
And you might be a little bit bruised
But baby how we spoon like no one else

06. KT Tunstall - Someday Soon
{ Tonks, end of Deathly Hallows }
Gonna wear my feathered headdress
Like an Indian chief.
Gonna stretch out both my arms
I'm gonna test the temperature

07. The Pogues - Love You 'Till The End
{ Tonks, Remus, and Teddy, post-series }
I just want to be there
When the morning light explodes
On your face it radiates
I can't escape
I love you 'till the end

#04. Cover:

Blurb:
A mix of songs that I feel fits my head-canon for the ship Harry/Cedric during Goblet Of Fire.

Songs:
Defy You - The Offspring
You cannot stop us, You cannot bring us down
Never give up, We go on and on
You'll never break us, Never bring us down
We are alive!

The Promise - Anberlin
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)
But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise, I promise you I will.

You're All I Have - Snow Patrol
Strain this chaos, turn it into light
I've got to see you one last night
Before the lions take their share
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere

Hysteria - Muse
'Cause I want it now, I want it now
Give me your heart and your soul
And I'm breaking out, I'm breaking out
Last chance to lose control

The Only Hope For Me Is You - My Chemical Romance
If there's a place that I could be
Then I'd be another memory
Can I be the only hope for you?
Because you're the only hope for me
And if we can't find where we belong
We'll have to make it on our own
Face all the pain and take it on
Because the only hope for me is you alone

How To Save A Life - The Fray
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

#05. Cover:

Blurb: This is a song mix for Severus Snape and Hermione Granger with emphasis on Severus and the beginning of a relationship and being hopeful/thankful.
Songs:

Stevie Nicks with Don Henley - Leather And Lace
You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me
And you were right
When I walked into your house
I knew I'd never want to leave
Sometimes I'm a strong man
Sometimes cold and scared
And sometimes I cry
But that time I saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I'd get by

Dave Matthews - So Damn Lucky
Oh my God, wait and see
What will soon become of me?
This frozen heart
Screaming wheels
But does that screaming come from me?
I'm dizzy from all this spinning
Now I'm thinking that you did all you could
When you said my love
Take it slowly
Ok, is what I said
Oh my God, wait and see
What will soon become of me?

3 Doors Down – Kryptonite
You called me strong, you called me weak,
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times
I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head,
If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back
On solid ground

Lifehouse - Everything
Find me here,
And speak to me.
I want to feel you,
I need to hear you.
You are the light,
That's leading me,
To the place,
Where I find peace again.

You are the strength,
That keeps me walking.
You are the hope,
That keeps me trusting.
You are the light,
To my soul.
You are my purpose,
You're everything.

Sarah Mclachlan - Angel
Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins
Let me be empty
Oh and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear

Back:

#06. Cover:

Blurb:
"You were in the playground with your sister. But I only had my eyes for you.
You played with the swings, flying so high, and your red hair glistened in the sunlight."

"We're best friends, aren't we? But I think I love you, Lily."

Songs:

Best Friend In The World - David Corey
"I wanted to reach out to you and just make everything all right
I wish that I could show you just how much I truly care
All my life I promise to be there"

Julia - The Beatles
"Half of what I say is meaningless
But I say it just to reach you, Julia
When I cannot sing my heart
I can only speak my mind, Julia"

The Shadow Of Your Smile - Tony Bennet
"The shadow of your smile, when you are gone
will color all my dreams and light the dawn
Look into my eyes my love and see
all the lovely things you are to me"

Cosmic Love - Florence + The Machine
"No dawn, no day, I'm always in this twilight
in the shadow of your heart
I took the stars from my eyes
and then I made a map
I knew that somehow I could find my way back"

I Will
"Who knows how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely lifetime?
If you want me to I will"

#07. Cover:

Blurb: After the war, Andromeda, the rebel heart, reflects on her past. Each song represents a certain memory.

Songs:

Lady: Regina Spektor
Corner street societies
But they believe her
They never leave her
While she sings she make them feel things
She says, i can sing this song so blue
That you will cry in spite of you

Missing: Evanescence
Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
Maybe someday you'll look up,
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"

Rose Red: Emilie Autumn
A thousand years gone by
Too late to wonder why
I'm here alone
If in my darkest hour
She rose that fell a flower
I should have known

Fallen: Sarah McLachlan
We all began with good intent
Love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
The past can be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden
Time always reveals
And the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I have held so dear.

Following: The Bangles
You think I'm crazy or something
Always following you around
You say I'm a hopeless case
Run an obsession into the ground.

Just A Dream: Carrie Underwood
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
I can't even breathe
It's like I'm looking from a distance
Standing in the background
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now
This can't be happening to me
This is just a dream

One Day I'll Fly Away: Nicole Kidman (Moulin Rouge OST)
One day I'll fly away
Leave all this to yesterday.
What more could your love do for me?
When will love be through with me?
Why live life from dream to dream?
And dread the day when dreaming ends...

Rebel Heart: The Corrs
INSTRUMENTAL

#08. Cover:

Blurb: This is my superawesome fanmix dedicated to the one and only Cedric Diggory, a young champion looking to find his place in the world who was taken from us much too soon. Love you Cedric!
Songs: Sexy and I Know It -- LMFAO
When I walk in the spot (yeah), this is what I see (ok)
Everybody stops and they staring at me
I got a passion in my pants and I ain't afraid to show it, show it, show it, show it
I'm sexy and I know it [x2]

I Can Go the Distance -- Disney's Hercules
I will find my way
I can go the distance
I'll be there someday
If I can be strong
I know ev'ry mild
Will be worth my while
I would go most anywhere
to feel like I belong

We Are the Champions -- Queen
We are the champions my friends
And we'll keep on fightin' till the end
We are the champions, We are the champions
No time for losers 'cause we are the champions

If I Die Young - The Band Perry
If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Pursuit of Happiness - Kid Cudi
Imma do just what I want lookin’ ahead no turnin’ back
if I fall if I die know I lived it till the fullest
if I fall if I die know I lived and missed some bullets
I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold
I'll be fine once I get it, I'll be good..

#09. Cover:

Blurb: A fanmix about the relationship of Minerva McGonagall and the Muggle farmer, Dougal McGregor, from when they fall in love and get engaged to when Minerva leaves and the relationship ends.
Songs:
Angel Taylor - Lightning Strikes
Lightning shines when
You're close to me and
Sometimes I really cannot control it

Kina Grannis - Stars Falling Down
I think that the clouds like the laughter around us
wanting to fell the warmth, they're softly sinking down
till they cover the streets just like a dreamland
and right above us, they part so that i see through
stars falling down, and i fell for you

Mumford & Sons - Hold On To What You Believe
But were young
Open flowers in the windy fields of this war-torn world
And love
This city breathes the plague of loving things more than their creators

I ran away
I could not take the burden of both me and you
It was too fast
Casting love on me as if it were a spell I could not break
When it was a promise I could not make

John Mayer - War of My Life
I'm in the war of my life,
At the door of my life,
Out of time
and there's nowhere to run

William Fitzsimmons - Even Now
How long should I wait before I let you go
How long should I decide

Oh, but I love you even still, even now, even though we fell apart
Even still, even now
But I hope we'll meet again

Back cover:

Back cover:

Blurb: Remus Lupin's life following the loss (in one way or another) of his best friends, ending with his relationship with Tonks.
Songs: Waiting for the End by Linkin Park Link here
What was left when that fire was gone
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it's like moving on
And I don't even know what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
So I'm picking up the pieces, now where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again

Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green DayLink here
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'til then I walk alone

When I'm Gone by 3 Doors DownLink here
There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There's secrets in this life
That I can't hide
Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away...
Or maybe I'm just blind...

Memories by Within TemptationLink here
All of my memories keep you near
In silent moments, imagine you'd be here
All of my memories keep you near
Your silent whispers, silent tears

Full Moon by Sonata ArcticaLink here
Sitting in a corner all alone,
Staring from the bottom of his soul,
Watching the night come in from the window, window

It'll all collapse tonight, the full moon is here again
In sickness and in health, understanding, so demanding
It has no name, there's one for every season
Makes him insane to know

Float by Flogging MollyLink here
Singled out for who you are
It takes all types to judge a man
Feel, that's all you can

Filthy suits with bigot ears
Hide behind their own worst fears
Live, that's all you can

I'll Follow You Into the Dark by Death Cab for CutieLink here
Love of mine, some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark

1. Christina Aguilera - Birds of Prey

They watch and they feed
They take what they need
They bite as you bleed
The birds of prey

2. Pink - Respect

I get really sick and tired of boys up in my face...

Cuz this body is a priceless piece of lovin' unconditionally
So, Mr. Big-stuff, who do you think you are?
You was thinkin' you's gonna get it for free
Now, now, now...

This song ~~if you ignore the rest of the lyrics and just focus on the excerpt above~~ goes out to all those dastardly people such as Draco Malfoy...If Beaky's gon' let you ride on his back, then you's better earn his R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

3. Glee Cast - Fly/ I Believe I Can Fly

Me, me, me against them
Me against enemies, me against friends
They start coming and I start rising
Must be surprising, I'm just surmising

I came to win, to fight, to conquer, to thrive
I came to win, to survive, to prosper, to rise

I believe I can fly
I believe I can touch the sky

Buckbeak remains a BAMF when he gets sentenced to execution.

4. Natasha Bedingfield - Wild Horses

All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear but not feel scared

Wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind
I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love, like I'm longing to
Run with the wild horses, run with the wild horses

~~It was the best horse-related song I could find.~~

5. Seal - Fly Like An Eagle

Said I wanna fly like an eagle...to the sea
Fly like an eagle let my spirit carry me
I wanna fly
Fly right into the future

Relevant to Prisoner of Azkaban because of the time travel thing.

#13. Cover:

Blurb: I wanted to portray the evolution of Neville, from the young boy who was timid and reserved to the grown man who stepped up to fight for his friends and risk everything. I think there was always a hero in Neville; it's just that Neville didn't always realize it.
Songs: The Perfect Space, The Avett Brothers
I wanna have friends that I can trust,
that love me for the man I’ve become not the man I was.
I wanna have friends that will let me be
all alone when being alone is all that I need.

I wanna fit in to the perfect space,
feel natural and safe in a volatile place.
And I wanna grow old without the pain,
give my body back to the earth and not complain.

The Rose, Bette Midler
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose

Standing Outside the Fire, Garth Brooks
We call them strong
Those who can face this world alone
Who seem to get by on their own
Those who will never take the fall

We call them weak
Who are unable to resist
The slightest chance love might exist
And for that forsake it all

They're so hell bent on giving, walking a wire
Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire

Standing outside the fire
Standing outside the fire
Life is not tried it is merely survived
If you're standing outside the fire

The Cowboy in Me, Tim McGraw
I don't know why I act the way I do
Like I ain't got a single thing to lose
Sometimes I'm my own worst enemy
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

I got a life that most would love to have
But sometimes I still wake up fightin' mad
At where this road I'm heading down might lead
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

The urge to run, the restlessness
The heart of stone I sometimes get
The things I've done for foolish pride
The me that's never satisfied
The face that's in the mirror when I don't like what I see
I guess that's just the cowboy in me

Hero, Mariah Carey
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive

So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

#14. Cover:

Blurb: The basic premise of this fanmix is that Lucius Malfoy is an OG. He has a lot of money that he uses to do whatever the hell he wants, whether it's legal or not. He gets women and makes money. He likes nice things and doesn't want to work a mundane job. A WARNING: SOME OF THESE LYRICS ARE EXPLICIT. I mean come on, it's Lucius Malfoy. He condones the torture of children. He's a little explicit.

Lyrics excerpt hereCouple killas on my right, couple killas on my left

#16. Cover

Blurb: Draco's childhood has been one event after another of not being able to choose his own destiny, and then he grows up and gets a few moments to change things.

Songs:

Disarm by Smashing Pumpkins
I used to be such a little boy.
So old in my shoes.
And what I chose is my choice.
What’s a boy supposed to do?

I'm in Here by Sia
I’m in here, can anybody see me?
Can anybody help?
I’m in here, a prisoner of history,
Can anybody help?

Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap
Oily marks appear on walls
Where pleasure moments hung before the takeover,
The sweeping insensitivity of this still life

Young by Hollywood Undead
All together walk alone,
Against all we've ever known
All I've ever really wanted was a place to call our home
But you take all we are,
The innocence of our hearts
Made to kneel before the alter as you tear us apart

Sing for the Moment by Eminem
That's why we seize the moment,
And try to freeze it and own it
Squeeze it and hold it,
Cause we consider these minutes golden

#17. Cover:

Blurb: Marauder's Era Sirius Black !
Songs: Written in the Stars
Everyones a kid that no-one cares about
You just gotta keep screaming until they hear you out
Oh written in the stars
A million miles away
A message to the main
Oh
Seasons come and go
But I will never change
And I'm on my way

Teenagers
They're gonna clean up your looks
With all the lies in the books
To make a citizen out of you
Because they sleep with a gun
And keep an eye on you, son
So they can watch all the things you do

You're Gonna Go Far, Kid
And now you’ll lead the way
Show the light of day
Nice work you did
You’re gonna go far, kid

Highway to Hell
Livin' easy
Lovin' free
Season ticket on a one way ride
Askin' nothin'
Leave me be
Takin' everythin' in my stride
Don't need reason
Don't need rhyme
Ain't nothin' that I'd rather do
Goin' down
Party time
My friends are gonna be there too

Fighting
Now I gotta go it alone
But I will never give up, no I'll never give up

Bonus Track: Break Your Heart
Now listen to me baby
Before I love and leave you
They call me heart breaker
I don't wanna deceive you

#18. Cover:

Blurb: Shades of Lavender.
Songs: A Beautiful Mess by Jason Mraz
You are strong but you're needy,
Humble but you're greedy
And based on your body language,
And shoddy cursive I've been reading
Your style is quite selective,
though your mind is rather reckless

Toxic by Britney Spears
With a taste of poison paradise
I'm addicted to you
Don't you know that you're toxic?

3 Small Words by Josie & the Pussycats
And those three small words
Were way too late
'Cause you can't see that I'm the one

Peachy by Missy Higgins
But I hate us both, don't you?
No of course you don't of course you don't
You say life is peachy without me

Numb by Marina & the Diamonds
And I light up the sky
Stars that burn the brightest
Fall so fast and pass you by
Spark like empty lighters

Blurb: This mix expresses Narcissa's feelings towards her husband, her son and own convictions as things start falling down around her.
Songs:

John Mayer - Slow Dancing In A Burning Room
We're going down,
And you can see it too.
We're going down,
And you know that we're doomed.
My dear
We're slow dancing in a burning room.

Mumford and Sons - Little Lion Man
Weep little lion man,
You're not as brave as you were at the start
...
But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time

REM - Losing My Religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much
I haven't said enough

Moxy Früvous - The Gulf War Song
What makes a person so poisonous righteous
That they'd think less of anyone who just disagrees?

Matchbox 20 - If You're Gone
I think I've already lost you
I think you're already gone
I think I'm finally scared now
You think I'm weak - but I think you're wrong

Blurb: The songs represent a view of Bellatrix as someone who's violent and can easily inflict damage... but, at the same time, is sexy enough to have an intense crush on. Not necessarily the most canonical perspective, but doesn't that just make it more interesting? ;-)
Songs: I'm Too Sexy-Right Said Fred
Lyrics excerpt here
I'm too sexy for my shirt too sexy for my shirt
So sexy it hurts

Uptown Girl-Billy Joel
Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world

Dominated Love Slave-Green Day
I want to be your dominated love slave
I want to be the one that takes the pain
You can spank me when I do not behave
Mack me in the forehead with a chain

He Hit Me-The Crystals
He hit me and it felt like a kiss

Dance With Me - 112
If you're sexy and you know it... clap your hands

Back Cover:

Blurb: Severus Snape's journey from realizing his (unrequited) love for his best friend, to learning of her death.

Songs:
1. "Trip" by Hedley shows the moment when Severus first realizes he loves Lily, and the immediate panic over how to deal with it.
What are you doing to me? I'm so into you
And the hardest part is knowing that I'll never follow through.
You're slowly killing me, and I wish it wasn't true...
Cause I'm so into you.

2. "B Team" by Marianas Trench, this song basically sums up his anxiety over thinking Lily could never like someone like him.
You choose your words, careful voice
In the end I'm not the first choice
You say you want someone just like me
So then, why am I your plan B?

3. "I Need To Know" by Kris Allen, embodying Severus' despair over calling Lily a 'mudblood', and her ensuing refusal to even speak to him.
Feel like I'm trying to breathe underwater
Trying to climb, but I keep falling farther
Will you take my hand?
I need to know.

4. "Somebody That I Used To Know" by Gotye, symbolizing the end of their friendship.
I don't want to live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go (Lily's POV)

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing (back to Severus' POV)

5. "Tear The World Down" by We Are The Fallen describes the turmoil Severus goes through when he finds out Lily has died.
All my love is lost
All my hope is gone

#22. Cover:

Blurb: I mostly wanted to create a mix that would represent Sirius Black's life and feelings. At least that was my intention.

Songs: Troubled Child - Journey
Sunrise, creepin' in your eyes
Cold empty side walks
Miles away from trustin' someone
Far from giving up
Young blood, cry tough
Mean street run
There's a hunger inside you
Desperate rebel runaway
Far from giving up

Family Tree - Matthew West
You didn't ask for this
Nobody ever would
Caught in the middle of this dysfunction
It's your sad reality
It's your messed up family tree
And all your left with all these questions

Are you gonna be like your father was and his father was?
Do you have to carry what they've handed down?

No, this is not your legacy
This is not your destiny
Yesterday does not define you
No, this is not your legacy
This is not your meant to be
I can break the chains that bind you

It's My Life - Bon Jovi
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just wanna live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

You better stand tall
When they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break
Baby, don't back down

Take Hold Of Me - Alex Band
Never been more alone
I'm sinking like a stone
Seems everything I knew
No longer gets me through this madness
I can't take it now

Everything I planned
Has crumbled into sand and
Slipped into the sea
Won't someone please save me from this pain
Cause I'm going insane

Dream On - Aerosmith
Every time when I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got the dues in life to pay

I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody sin
You got to lose to know how to win

Bring 'Em Down - Lostprophets
Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run,
Who's on your side, you're still having fun
You ain't the first to come and die,
Digging these graves for miles and miles,
Through everything we still achieve,
In bringing all our enemies
Down

This is War - 30 Seconds to Mars
A warning to the prophet,
The liar, the honest,
This is war.

To the leader, the pariah,
The victor, the messiah,
This is war.

It's the moment of truth, and the moment to lie,
The moment to live and the moment to die,
The moment to fight

Sound the Bugle - Bryan Adams
Sound the bugle now
play it just for me
As the seasons change
remember how I used to be
Now I can't go on
I can't even start
I've got nothing left
just an empty heart

Blurb: I wanted to portray the relationshop between Severus and Lily, focusing on the emotional journey that Severus had to go through during the time he knew her. We start with the loss of his innocence, which happened early on in his life due to the difficult nature of his upbringing. Then we move on to the wonderful euphoria of him finding Lily and befriending her, which also is the pinnacle of his happiness. Then as we move along the tracks, we can experience the frustration, anger and despair that he has to face when he realises that his feelings are not reciprocated. And yet, underneath it all, remains his neverending love for her - even in death.
Songs: Nero - Innocence
You'll never be mine
Innocence

Lamb - Gorecki
Could we stay right here
Until the end of time, until the earth stops turning
Wanna love you until the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for

Tori Amos - Precious Things
These precious things
Let them bleed
Let them wash away
These precious things let them break
Their hold over me

Muse - Map of the Problematique
I can't get it right
Get it right
Since I met you

Loneliness be over
When will this loneliness be over

Evanescence - Even In Death
Give me a reason to believe that you're gone
I see your shadow so I know they're all wrong
Moonlight on the soft brown earth
It leads me to where you lay
They took you away from me but now I'm taking you home
