band of brothers - speirs/lipton - personal responsibility

personal responsibility 
| a speirs/lipton mini-mix. |

oo1: ordinary world | duran duran.

what is happening to me? crazy, some say. passion or coincidence once prompted me to say
"pride will tear us both apart." well now pride's gone out the windows, cross the rooftops, runaway.
left me in the vacuum of my heart. as i try to make my way to to the ordinary world, i will learn to survive.

oo2: cherry tree | the national.

take us down and all apart, cherry tree, lay us out on the table. you're sharp alright. but no one is asking,
so leave it alone, leave it alone, no one is asking. don't look at me, i'm only breathing. don't look at me,
i'm indiscreet. loose lips sink ships. can we show a little discipline?

oo3: bullets | archive.

come touch me like i'm an ordinary man, have a look in my eyes. underneath my skin there is a violence,
got a gun in its hand. black holes living in the side of your face, razor wire spinning around your blistering sky.
bullets are the beauty and i don't know why. confine me, let me be the lesser of a beautiful man,
without the blood on his hands. come and make me a martyr, come and break my feeling.

oo4: challengers | the new pornographers.

leave it there for safe-keeping, you wanted the village in flames. that was the custom, come dawn.
on the walls of the day, in the shade of the sun, we wrote down another vision of us. we are the challengers
of the unknown. "be safe," you say, whatever mess you're in, you're mine, okay?

oo5: temper temper | envy on the coast.

temper, temper, i never wanted to be mr., mr. i can't hold it in. clever, clever, give me a reason to be clever,
clever. give me a reason to be placing all my trust in your hands. when the words are aged, the war is waged,
and you'll watch me blow. i can be your powder keg if you can be my fuse.

oo6: wonderwall | ryan adams.

and all the roads we have to walk are winding, and all the lights that lead us there are blinding.
there are many things that i would like to say to you, but i don't know how. because maybe,
you're going to be the one that saves me. and after all, you're my wonderwall.

[masterlist of mixes]

a/n: somehow this mix ended up being rather ...dark and moody, but i actually adore the sound of it. it has that edge of darkness and desperation that comes with a war, and focuses a bit on how speirs handles the battlefield. but just like them, there's a little bit of softness and love within it all.

enjoy! comments are beautiful and appreciated, as always (:
