Saturday Sing-Along #002: The Folk of the Air Playlist Part 2

Saturday Sing-Along is a meme that I created after realizing that I have way too many playlists on Spotify dedicated to my favorite book series. I am constantly making playlists to go along with my favorite books so I thought that I would share those songs with others. Hopefully, others would love to join in and we can share and discuss the songs that fit perfectly with our fandoms and the moods that the music creates for them. 

RULES

1. Pick 3 - 5 songs that remind you of a book or series. (Or pick an entire playlist if your heart desires!)

2. The songs do not have to be about the same book or series. Mix things up if you wish.

3. Post the title and artist of the song and then the book or series that it reminds you of. As a bonus, you can tell us what character or couple the song reminds you of and why.

4. Post a few lines of lyrics from the song (or all of them if you want, go wild!) that best represent the book or series (or character or couple, etc.). Unless it's instrumental, obviously. =)

5. As a bonus, you can post or link to a YouTube video of your songs so that it is easy for others to listen to them and experience your playlist.

If you are participating, these rules are not set in stone. Make this your own thing and change things up if you like. This is supposed to be fun, after all. =)

Last week I started posting songs from my The Cruel Prince/The Wicked King playlist. I am continuing with this series for today's post as well. Now on to part 2!

THE FOLK OF THE AIR
PLAYLIST PART 2

1. Throne by Bring Me The Horizon
This song brings me so much emotion when thinking about the end of The Wicked King! No spoilers, but those of you that have read it will probably understand perfectly.

Remember the moment you left me alone and Broke every promise you ever made I was an ocean, lost in the open Nothing could take the pain away The sticks and the stones that You used to throw have, Built me an empire So don’t even try, To cry me a river 'Cause I forgive you You are the reason I still fight So you can throw me to the wolves Tomorrow I will come back Leader of the whole pack Beat me black and blue Every wound will shape me Every scar will build my throne I’ll leave you choking On every word you left unspoken Rebuild all that you’ve broken And now you know Every wound will shape me Every scar will build my throne
2. Heaven or Hell by Digital Daggers This is a song that reminds me of Jude and Cardan and their feelings for each other.


I’ve got the same deep wounds as you My love can double as a weapon too Say that you trust it and I’ll set it free Turn it back on me We trade our secrets when it’s safe Our ammunition when the fever breaks Show me the side no one else sees Turn it back on me I am exposed, I am undone You tear the walls down one by one In you I found my only faith I lost my halo to your renegade This love could bring me to my knees Turn it back on me We tried to run, we tried to hide in fear of losing ourselves We tried to keep it all inside so we don’t hurt someone else When all the demons come alive I’ll still be under your spell This could be heaven or hell This could be heaven or hell
3. Fragile Bones by Palisades This is a song that reminds me of Cardan, from his point of view. About how Jude is pulling his strings.


Under your scope so you can see close Analyze the way that my colors take fold You pin my wings down so you can find out How long it'll take 'til I fall to the open ground 'Cause I wanna know, and do you reap what you sow? And do you dull whatever seems to have a pulse? You try and fix me, to fix your machine But what's alive can never live without a soul I drag around all the weight of your words Shutting me down so your voice can be heard Make me your clone, make me your own You think you're curing a disease You got the answers, the vaccines You're making me hate me, making me hate me Pull at the strings to play your scene But I cut the ties from underneath You'll never save me, you'll never save me Try to be the one that you want and it just wasn't enough You took all my pride and turned it to dust You take my fragile bones and you'll make them your own You wanted everything 'til nothing's left of me
4. Deep End by Ruelle This song reminds me of Jude. In The Cruel Prince trying to deal with Cardan and his cruel friends and managing Dain and everything else. In The Wicked King, handling Cardan and all the pressures on her shoulders.


Where can I go? When the shadows are calling, Shadows are calling me What can I do? When it's pulling me under, Pulling me underneath Like light in my veins Darkness is sinking Darkness is sinking me Commanding my soul I am under the surface Where the blackness burns beneath It's getting close, I lose control It's taking over I'm slipping into the deep end I'm in over my head I can't catch my breath I'm slipping into the deep end Feel the current within I can't help but give in I'm lost in the deep end  I'm lost…
5. FEEL NOTHING by The Plot In You This song reminds me of Jude's feelings towards Madoc and Taryn at the end of The Wicked King.


Before I say another word, Just know that my intentions were pure But you can't stand to be in silence All you can hear is your own voice, fueling delusion in you And I'm just, So sick of backing down that I might just spill it all And if I do you won't be coming back without a deep scar in your soul Are you not sick of playing games, Sick of giving blame Sick of fucking living like the world has never given you a life defining day? My mind is torn, I hate it but I long to feel what I felt before But you just keep moving towards me, What do I do what do I say? Can you kindly just refrain, What's here for me Broke away but you're starving for closure Seem together but you know that I know ya Know this is real, this is real And I can't relate And I feel nothing for you I feel nothing for you And I feel It's too late, too late I've buried this and it's evident You won't change, won't change I feel nothing for you Why hide the truth That I feel nothing for you

So there is the second part of my Folk of the Air Playlist. Do any of these songs speak true to any of you for this series? What other songs do you think would fit into the mood for this series? I'd love to add more song to my playlist so feel free to share! If you would like to participate in my meme then please link me to your post!
