LOCK IT WHEN YOU LEAVE

(reader)

• all eyes on me - bo burnham

"you say the ocean's rising like i give a shit,

you say the whole world's ending, honey, it already did,

you're not gonna slow it, heaven knows you tried."

• love in the dark - adele

"please, stay where you are,

don't come any closer,

don't try to change my mind,

i'm being cruel to be kind."

• empty space - james arthur

"and i won't hear it,

whenever anybody says your name,

and i won't feel it,

even when i'm bursting into flames."

• soon you'll get better - taylor swift

"you'll get better soon,

'cause you have to."

• set fire to the rain - adele

"'cause there's a side to you,

that i never knew, never knew,

all the things you'd say,

they were never true, never true."

• war of hearts - ruelle

"i can't help but love you,

even though i try not to."

• king - lauren aquilina

"you're alone,

you're on your own,

so what? have you gone blind?

have you forgotten what you have and what is yours?"

"you don't get what all this is about,

you're too wrapped up in your self-doubt,

you've got that young blood, set it free."

(joel)

• home - cavetown

"get a load of this monster,

he doesn't know how to communicate,

his mind is in a different place,

will everybody please give him a little bit of space?"

• slipping through my fingers - abba

and without really entering her world."

i don't know what i'm supposed to do,

haunted by the ghost of you."

• i'll be good - jaymes young

"i never meant to start a fire,

i never meant to make you bleed."

"for all of the light that i shut out,

for all of the innocent things that i doubt,

for all of the bruises i've caused and the tears,

for all of the things that i've done."

(eliie and reader confrontation)

• my goodbye - jorge rivera-herrans

"i just like you, why should i be surprised,

selfish and prideful and vain,

unlike you, everytime someone dies,

i'm left to deal with the strain."

"one day, you'll hear what i'm saying,

one day, you might understand,

one day, but not today."

(tess)

• wings - birdy

"we watch the day go by,

illuminates our skin,

it made me think of you."

• i miss you, i'm sorry - gracie abrams

"nothing happened in the way i wanted,

every corner of this house is haunted,

and i know you said that we're not talking,

but i miss you, i'm sorry."

HOWL YOU ARE KILLING ME HERE.

it’s not fair bc i’m the one emant to cause pain ehre NOT BE THE SUFFERER OF PAIN!!! also the way i was shocked, flabbergasted, bamboozled by the inclusion of tess??? MY HEART.

also idc i’m gonna say it ehre and link it to the part 3 anyway. THE READER AND ELLIE CONFRONTATION ONE IS SO SO GOOD. i’ve seen some people not happy with ellie for her reaction and i just want to say SHE IS VALID!!! READER IS VALID!!!

lets think of everything ellie went through on that journey after leaving jackson. she has been through SO much. and she gets back to jackson, to this actual town, to find the reader there. and the reader is angry? angry for being left in this slice of heaven? for missing out on events that ellie WISHES she could forget? she’s angry and she’s hurting and so is the reader and they’re not understanding each other. they’re not seeing the other’s side of the story.

the first lot of lyrics fit r’s perspective SO WELL in my view too, because to her, ellie hasn’t felt the pain of all those deaths before jackson like she has. especially with tess. it’s not the same. BUT THEN, they also fit so well for ellie, especially in the second half of their journey. I CANT CONTAIN MYSELF WITH THAT SPECIFIC CHOICE. ITS SO INCREDIBLY PERFECT.

#heartpascal says #howl <3 #SOBBING #all eyes on me for reader’s perspective too???? ITS TOO PERFECT. #ITS TOO GOOD #all of the ones for reader are SO SO APT #as always but i just feel especially passionate about the choices for this part #WAR OF HEARTS AND SOON YOULL GET BETTER??? #THE LYRICS FIT TOO WELL AND JUST !!!!!!!!! #also you cannot add cavetown in here and expect me NOT to sob and cry #I AM A CAVETOWN LOVER!!! #HOWL YOU REALLY HAVE OUTDONE YOURSELF WITH THIS ONE #I CANT EVEN PUT INTO WORDS.
