climbing ladders to polar stars | a carter x melinda fanmix ; (for the verbal arabesques and mental gymnastics, for the nights where they claim sovereignty of the rooftops and pretend to be king and queen.) ![]() [ LISTEN HERE ] TRACKLIST 1. Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) - Arcade Fire 2. I'm With You - Avril Lavigne 3. Academia - Sia 4. Brand New Colony - Postal Service 5. Past the Point of No Return - The Phantom of the Opera Soundtrack 6. Resistance - Muse 7. Spectrum - Florence + the Machine 8. Invent it All Again - Faded Paper Figures LYRICS 1. They heard me singing and they told me to stop, Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock, These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose, But late at night the feelings swim to the surface. Cause on the surface the city lights shine, They're calling at me, "come and find your kind." Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small, That we can never get away from the sprawl, Living in the sprawl, Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains, And there's no end in sight, I need the darkness; someone please cut the lights. 2. It's a damn cold night Trying to figure out this life Won't you take me by the hand? Take me somewhere new I don't know who you are But I... I'm with you. 3. You can be my alphabet and I will be your calculator And together we'll work out on the escalator I will time you as you run up the down And you'll measure my footsteps as I pleasure this town The mean of our heights is divided by the nights Which is times'd by the daggers and the root of all our fights, The pass of your poem is to swathe me in your knowing And the beauty of the word is that you don't have to show it. 4. I want to take you far from the cynics in this town And kiss you on the mouth We'll cut our bodies free from the tethers of this scene, Start a brand new colony Where everything will change, We'll give ourselves new names (identities erased) The sun will heat the grounds Under our bare feet in this brand new colony. 5. Past the point of no return, no backward glances The games we played 'til now are at an end Past all thought of 'If' or 'When', no use resisting Abandon thought and let the dream descend What raging fire shall flood the soul? What rich desire unlocks its door? What sweet seduction lies before us? Past the point of no return, the final threshold What warm unspoken secrets will we learn? Beyond the point of no return. 6. Love is our resistance They'll keep us apart and they won't stop breaking us down Hold me Our lips must always be sealed If we live a life in fear I'll wait a thousand years Just to see you smile again Kill your prayers for love and peace You'll wake the thought police We can't hide the truth inside. 7. And when we first came here, We were cold and we were clear, With no colours on our skin, 'Till you let the spectrum in. Say my name, And every colour illuminates, We are shining, And we'll never be afraid again. 8. Climbing ladders to polar stars Things I did for you back then All these fires are only casting iron I'd invent them all again Folding chairs and building blocks Magic mirrors to pretend. Seismographic data in our hearts Let's invent them all again. Carter Blane Gaven © Riddle, Melinda Daae © Day. Cover art © Yuuichi Bobobo of Zerochan. |
