Whedonverse Valentine
Feb. 14th, 2007 11:42 amHappy Valentine's Day. On a whim, here is...
A (Slightly Twisted) Whedonverse Valentine's Day Fanmix (for tortured Whedonverse romances)
Buffy: The Tower
Lyric: She turns on the light anticipating nightfall, tenderly around her, watching the dusk but words won't come. She carries the ax. So convincingly, in fact, that sometimes she believes it -- that she can be happy with the way things are and with the things she's done. She says I need not to need [...] or someone reaches out to my weakness and won't let go. I've always been the tower, but now I feel like a flower trying to bloom in snow...
Spike (Spuffy): Crashed
Lyric: Where I've been, well it's all a blur. What I was looking for, I'm not sure. Too late. Didn't see it coming. I crashed into you. And I went up in flames.[...] You will consume me, but I can't walk away.
Buffy (Spuffy): I Like
Lyric: I ask you to open the door and see how things could have gone. The reason that it took so long before you could figure out that I was about to break. There were no arms to keep me from harming me. And now I'm searching back to see how I never tried to ask for some sympathy. 'Cause nobody wants to ride with me too far. 'Cause I might trip away, but in your arms I'd rather stay. You might just turn into something I like. You might just turn into something I like.
Spike (Spuffy): Vampire Heart
Lyric: Darling, I'm lost . Adrift in the dark. I'm clutching your words to my vampire heart. So let in the light. Turn me to dust. If it don't end in bloodshed, dear, it's probably not love [...] Here we are in the darkest place. To keep from forgetting, I picture your face. And I wonder, while we count the cost, which is sweeter --love or its loss?
Buffy (Spuffy): Scratch
Lyric: It's a big girl world now. Full of big girl things. And everyday I wish I was small. I've been counting on nothing. But he keeps giving me his word. And I am tired of hearing myself speak. Do you ever get weary? Do you ever get weak? How do you dream when you can't fall asleep? I've been wondering what you're thinking [...] Would you still say you love me under this ordinary moonlight? I'm so afraid of what you'll say. I'd like to know if you'd be open to starting over from scratch. I'd like to know if you'd be open to giving me a second chance. I used to think I was special, and only I have proved me wrong...
Angel/Darla: She's Your Cocaine
Lyric: She says control it. Then she says don't control it. Then she says you're controlling. The way she makes you crawl. She's your cocaine, your Exodus laughing. And she knows what you are [...]Boy, I could lie to you. You don't need one of these to let me inside of you. And is it true that devils end up like you...
Angel: Pain
Lyric: Anger and agony are better than misery. Trust me I've got a plan[...]I know that you're wounded. You know that I'm here to save you. [...] I know that you'll thank me later. [...] 'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all...
Spike (Spike/Dru): Mellotron Scratch
Lyric: I whispered something in her ear. I bare my soul but she don't hear. The scratching of a mellotron, it always seemed to make her cry. Well, maybe she remembers us collecting space up in the sky. Nothing rises from my feet of clay, but it's okay. Red mist spreads across my fingertips, ardour slips. I lay her gently on my clothes. She will leave me. Yes, I know. And I'm looking at a blank page now. Should I fill it up with words somehow?
Dru (Spike/Dru): Black Roses Red
Lyric: As twisted as it seems, I only fear love when it's in my dreams. So let the morning light come in and let the darkness fade away. Can you turn my black roses red? [...] Drowning in my loneliness. How long must I hold my breath? So much emptiness inside. I could fill the deepest sea. I reach to the sky as the moon looks on. One last year has come and gone. Can you turn my black roses red?
Angel (Angel/Cordy): Meaningless Love
Lyric: I like you better in any weather when you're not trying. It's so inviting. I don't deserve you. I can't afford you. Unless you're timeless. I wanted to say that I had nothing to do with the meaning of love, so you can't say that I wanted to hide.[...] I found that letter we wrote together when time was fearless. I tried to tell you. I can't afford you-- unless you're timeless...
Spike (Spangel): Nothing in My Way
Lyric: Why d'you laugh when I know that you hurt inside? Why d'you say it's just another day, nothing in my way? I don't wanna go. I don't wanna stay, so there's nothing left to say. Why d'you lie when you wanna die, when you hurt inside? Don't know what you lie for anyway. Now, there's nothing left to say[...]Well, for a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time...
Angel (Spangel): Cells
They annoy me, those who employ me. They could destroy me. They should enjoy me. We eat Chinese off our knees. And look for each other in the TV screen.
The sun goes up, and the sun goes down. I drag myself into the town. All I do I want to do with you. Everyday I'm at my desk. At my desk I'm like the rest, but all I do, I want to do with you.
