Carry Me Home - The Killers // From Up On Poppy Hill
made in 2013
Let me out Don’t tell me everything Started out like any other day Must have gave the wrong impression Don’t you understand where I belong? I’m not the one Stand again They say nothing comes for free And that’s the truth, I’ve been living in a fantasy Slip and slide A head trip heaven Self-denial such a wonderful and powerful thing Well I’m not the one
The morning dove sings with two broken wings Carry me home I’m not afraid The stars in my eyes were shimmering lights Carry me home Don’t let me fade away
Stop the press The kid’s light is growing dim It took a month long slide Then the world came caving in When you self-destruct You wind up looking for a glimmer of hope But the writing’s on the wall I’m not the one
Just how thick is your skin? Just how sharp are your teeth? Oh, you’ve got a lot to learn Is there somewhere else I can win? Is there something else to start over again? From the summit's edge, to the cutting room floor I will be afraid no more (no more)

Dustland Fairytale - The Killers // Howl's Moving Castle
made in 2013
A Dustland fairytale beginning with just another white trash county kiss In '61, long brown hair and foolish eyes He looked just like you'd want him to, some kind of slick chrome American prince A blue jean serenade Moon River what'd you do to me? I don't believe you
Saw Cinderella in a party dress but She was lookin' for a night gown I saw the devil wrappin' up his hands He's gettin' ready for the showdown I saw the minute that I turned away I got my money on a pawn tonight
A change came in disguise of revelation, set his soul on fire She said she always knew he'd come around And the decades disappear like sinkin' ships, but we persevere God gives us hope, but we still fear what we don't know, the mind is poison
Castles in the sky sit stranded vandalized We're drawbridges closin'
Saw Cinderella in a party dress But she was lookin' for a nightgown I saw the devil wrappin' up his hands He's gettin' ready for the showdown I saw the ending when they turned the page I threw my money and I ran away Straight to the valley of the great divide Out where the dreams all hide
Out where the wind don't blow Out here the good girls die And the sky won't snow Out here the bird don't sing Out here the field don't grow Out here the bell don't ring Out here the bell don't ring Out here the good girls die
Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep It's such a bitter form of refuge Oh, don't you know the kingdom's under siege And everybody needs you Is there still magic in the midnight sun Or did you leave it back in sixty-one In the cadence of a young man's eyes Out where the dreams all hide

Be Still - The Killers // Spirited Away
made in 2013
Be still Go on to bed Nobody knows what lies ahead Life is short to say the least We're in the belly of the beast Be still, wild and young Long may your innocence reign Like shells on a shore May your limits be unknown May your efforts be your own If you ever feel you can't take it anymore
Don't break character You've got a lot of heart Is this real or just a dream Rise up like the sun Labor till the work is done
Be still One day you'll lead Fearlessness on your sleeve When you come back, tell me what did you see Was there something out there for me Be still Close your eyes Soon enough, you'll be on your own, steady and straight And if they drag you through the mud It doesn't change what's in your blood Over rock, over chain, over trap, over plane When they knock you down
Don't break character You've got a lot of heart Is this real or just a dream Be still, be still Be still, be still
Over rock and chain Over sunset plane Over trap and snare When you're in too deep In your wildest dreams In your made up schemes When they knock you down When they knock you down

Loveliest Creature - Savoir Adore // Ponyo
made in 2013
Down by the river, he found me I was a little girl, he found me The trees were all in blue around us Soft leaves were hugging all of me, when they found us
Started slow, cared to love So that I'd be the only one to know What he meant when he said…
You are the loveliest creature that I ever did see Well you are the loveliest creature that I ever did see I'll keep you with me Oh I'll keep you with me Keep you with me Keep you with me
The sun was sitting down, beside us There was no one around, to find us The water held my feet, beneath me He put his hand up to my face and he held me
Touch your skin, to begin How we learnt to let each other in In his way, he would say…
You are the loveliest creature that I ever did see Well you are the loveliest creature that I ever did see I'll keep you with me Oh I'll keep you with me
We came together Oh we came together Under the blue Under the blue

My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark - Fall Out Boy // Hakuouki
made in 2013
B-B-Be careful making wishes in the dark, dark Can't be sure when they've hit their mark And besides in the mean-meantime, I'm just Dreaming of tearing you apart I'm in the deep details with the devil You know, the world can never get me on my level I just gotta get you out the cage, I'm a young lover's rage Gonna need a spark to ignite
But my songs know what you did in the dark
So light 'em up, up, up Light 'em up, up, up Light 'em up, up, up I'm on fire
Well all the writers keep writing what they write Somewhere another pretty vein just died (Died) I've got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see That you're the antidote to everything except for me Through a constellation of tears on your lashes Burn everything you love then burn the ashes In the end everything collides, my childhood Spat back out the monster that you see

Somewhere Up There - Passion Pit // Neon Genesis Evangelion
made in 2019
tw// flashing images and violent content
Baby, I get so lost I saw you falling apart and I thought it was all my fault But now you sing Oh, how you sing! With your voice like an angel attached to a broad pair of wings
But that’s the point Because once we joined The crowd started screaming and we couldn’t hear over the noise
You spoke and said— (But in my head, I kept passing the blame for excuses to help me tread)
Oh, caught in the middle of deceptions Just to get a part of the others, our authority figures That would look like the others The truths and the liars that were holding us both to the flames
So, now I cry -- I’m only trying to turn our hell to reality And it’s so divine Because the pain And the time it takes to end all of the talking And finally meet on a plane
And up there somewhere And up there somewhere
[Spoken] "You know when children are very little, the child-mother, or nurturer, let's call her mother. The mother bond is developed- from day one, starts real early and continues...
There are three fundamental attachments that you can be: Secure, ambivalent Or distant ...in your attachment -- in other words, insecure in your attachment. So, um..."

Somewhere Only We Know - Keane // Studio Ghibli
made in 2016
I walked across an empty land I knew the pathway like the back of my hand I felt the earth beneath my feet Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone? I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree I felt the branches of it looking at me Is this the place we used to love? Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
And if you have a minute, why don't we go Talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything So why don't we go somewhere only we know?

Where We Belong - Passion Pit // Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo
made in 2014
It's gotten cold in here But a solemn warmth draws near And with a gentle touch of these burdens And such fears are wiped clear (Oh-oh-oh-oh) Who says you ought to stay? How's this the easier way? It's far from giving up Cowards never say enough is enough (Is enough)
And then I'm lifted up Out of the crimson tub The bath begins to drain And from the floor he prays away all my pain Who says that God exists? We kiss the icons of myths, but Well, I believe in you Do you believe in me, too? Gabriel?
All the things you can't control Should never destroy the love one holds I found a place I found a place I found a place where we belong
Never did I think I'd be lifted to whitest clouds Never did I ever think I'd find out all the things I found It's hard to keep on living when your heart weighs 'bout a million pounds All I ever wanted was to be happy and make you proud

Exitlude - The Killers // Studio Ghibli
made in 2013
Aggressively, we all defend the role we play Regrettably, time's come to send you on your way We've seen it all, bonfires of trust, flash floods of pain
It doesn't really matter, don't you worry, it'll all work out No, it doesn't even matter, don't you worry, that ain't what it's all about
We hope you enjoyed your stay It's good to have you with us Even if it's just for the day
We hope you enjoyed your stay Outside, the sun is shinin' Seems like heaven ain't far away
