it burns because it must // an ancyn playlist

[obliviousally]

evermore
Taylor Swift, feat. Bon Iver
I rewind the tape but all it does is pause
On the very moment all was lost
Sending signals
To be double crossed
🎶

Cat’s Eyes and Rosebuds
So Much Light
Hey, woke up in the grave again
On my last reincarnation
Closer to the ever burning light
Woke up in the grave again
On my last reincarnation
Closer to the ever burning li-i-ight
🎶

Metaphor
The Crane Wives
I keep my closet free of skeletons
'Cause I'm much better at digging graves
But I always dig up bones in your sympathy
I can't trust a single thing you say

Don't look too hard 'cause you won't like the scars he left in me
🎶

October
The Crane Wives
Come my dear and drink while the water's still cold
I am naught but a scar upon your breastbone
So kiss me quick, steal every secret I keep
You can have anything that you want from me
🎶

Animal Skin
Bryan Dunn
I know where you're vulnerable
Wild things can't get comfortable
Quiver and shake, quiver and shake
🎶

Shake off Your Flesh
The Huntress and Holder of Hands
Beneath my breasts
There burns a fire
Of blood and flesh
Of sound and wire
It won't be quenched
'Till I retire
From wretchedness
That dark desire
🎶

Green Jewels
Kriill
I came across what seems to be you
In a shell
The feeling was not exactly different
Nor really the same
You're standing there, a face on your shame
With green jewels
If we make believe and I believe you

Who would be the fool?
🎶

Thick As Thieves
Dashboard Confessional
You've got my counsel, thick as thieves
If there's a crime we'll keep it secret
For there's only trace amounts left in your blood
You may be a sinner
But you may be justified

Just keep your mouth shut
Keep your guard up
I swear I'll make it right
🎶

De Selby (Part 2)
Hozier
I wanna run against the world that's turnin'
I'd movе so fast that I'd outpace the dawn
I wanna be gonе
I wanna run so far, I'd beat the mornin'
Before the dawn has come, I'd block the sun
If you want it done
🎶

Come Along
Cosmo Sheldrake
We'll be here when the world slows down
And the sunbeams fade away
Keeping time by a pendulum
As the fabric starts to fray

There's no such thing as time to kill
Nor time to throw away
So once for the bright sky
Twice for the pig sty
Thrice for another day
🎶

Blacksnake
Charming Disaster
Heat haze on the highway there's a shimmer in the air
Out on the horizon there's a figure standing there
Strange hallucinations as the sky is growing thin
From the corners of my vision see the shadows closing in
Is it just sleep deprivation or the ergot on the rye
Yeah, ever since you found me I'm afraid that I might die
🎶

Soothsayer
Haunted Like Human
In the chaos and calm
Cut a slash cross your palm
Promise blood, it poisons your heart
🎶

Femme Fatale
Coyote Kid
We placed a gamble with our hands on our hearts
Made a blood-pact deal 'til death do us part
I knew his heart was mine
But his soul was sour inside
🎶

Infinite Skin
Blaqk Audio
Love on the corner
Blood on a dead-end street
You had to find her
To tell, to tell of me
You stopped at nothing
Threw down your favorite knife
I stopped a little short
A little short of something right
🎶

Nobody
The Crane Wives
Kill the moon beneath my window, pull the covers tighter
And hear her voice go swinging like a hatchet through the trees


There's a shadow at the back door
Something's moving in the shade
She lights cigarettes like lanterns
For the darkness in my head
🎶
