live through this (songs for the revolution)

If this was the soundtrack to a story, it would be a story about the end of the world, totalitarian governments, resistance, revolutionaries in love, fighting and fucking, choices (or lack thereof), guns and explosions and the taste of metal and blood, desperation, isolation, believing in nothing, believing in everything.

01 hole - asking for it
If you live through this with me, I swear that I will die for you.

02 electric president - some crap about the future
You reach inside and tear out all your cables. Snakes of smoke are dripping from your fingers.
You have no body-- just a cage to hold your parts.

03 arcade fire - rebellion (lies)
People say that you'll die faster than without water. But we know it's just a lie-- scare your son, scare your daughter.

04 fall out boy - disloyal order of the water buffaloes
I'm a loose bolt of a complete machine. What a match-- I'm half-doomed and you're semi-sweet.

05 ted leo & the pharmacists - the lost brigade
Who won't let tomorrow die, and who keeps the vision moving on? In this land of grand decay, we resist here,

06 los campesinos! - we are beautiful, we are doomed
We kid ourselves. There's future in the fucking, but there is no fucking future.

07 mother mother - wrecking ball
You gotta see the artistry in tearing the place apart with me, baby.

08 snow patrol - open your eyes
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine, and we'll walk from this dark room for the last time.

09 gavin rossdale - love remains the same
Half the time the world is ending, truth is I am done pretending.

10 snow patrol (featuring martha wainwright) - set fire to the third bar
I pray that something picks me up and sets me down in your warm arms.

11 sean lennon - parachute
If I have to die tonight, I'd rather be with you and cut the parachute before the dive.

12 the notwist - one step inside doesn't mean you understand
One step inside doesn't mean you understand. One step inside doesn't mean I'm yours.

13 aqualung - brighter than sunshine
Love burns brighter than sunshine.
