Night Drive
1. Alert The Audience! - The Lawrence Arms
Passive, Aggressive, Confessing, Repressive
Structurally uncertain, transparent, transgressive

Mistakes are the brakes that i'm cutting on me
Fast down the hill, impossibly free
Faster and faster, i'm burning the gears
My tears are streaming back into my ears

My enemies I knew too well, they bickered amongst themselves
I have a rule, that I love to break
It ends in tears, cursing, and shakes

Fuck the spectators, fuck the "he was so young"
Fuck forced sympathy through lifeless glass eyes

I can't stand the humor, and I can't stand the lies

Sort of an intro song for both of them. Alternating POV.

2. Running Up That Hill - Placebo
It doesn't hurt me
You wanna feel how it feels?
You wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me
You wanna hear about the deal I'm making?

And if I only could
Make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building

You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder
There is thunder in our hearts, baby
So much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?

Riku POV.

3. When Your Heart Stops Beating - +44
Turn it up I never wanna go home
I only wanna be part of your breakdown
She got caught by the four on the floor
I picked her up
And she'll never get let down

And now I can't stop
Thinking about it

I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your last breath's taken away
In the dark when there's no one listening
In the times when we both get carried away

Riku POV again.

4. Sweet Surrender (Live) - Sarah McLachlan
The life I've left behind me
Is a cold room
I've crossed the last line
From where I can't return
Where every step I took in faith
Betrayed me
And led me from my home
And sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give

You take me in
No questions asked
You strip away the ugliness
That surrounds me
Are you an angel
Am I already that gone
I only hope
That I won't disappoint you
When I'm down here
On my knees

Riku POV [are we sensing a trend?].

5. Dance, Dance - Fall Out Boy
Riku: She says she's no good with words but I'm worse
Barely stuttered out
"A joke of a romantic" or stuck to my tongue
Weighed down with words too over-dramatic
Tonight it's "it can't get much worse"
Vs. "no one should ever feel like..."

Roxas: I'm two quarters and a heart down
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds
These words are all I have so I'll write them
So you need them just to get by

You always fold just before you're found out

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine
You've been saving for his mattress, love

Riku: I only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me

Alternating POV.

6. Night Drive - Jimmy Eat World
Lay back baby and we’ll do this right
There’s blankets in back we can use

Now’s the right time for a good song
Got something to say what I can’t
Do you feel bad, like I feel bad?

Kiss me with your cherry lipstick
Never wash you off my face
Hit me I can take your cheap shots
leave you with the love we made

It’d be easy if you get mad
But three fingers point back to you
We could stay here
Stay out all night
No one will know
Us and the moonlight

You pierce my heart like a willing arm
Your ticking makes my blood move
There’s no way out
This fade out
Be Happy to get what you do
Make him notice
With both fists
Cause' quiting alone will never get you dry

Riku POV again.

7. Again & Again - The Bird & The Bee
Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again
Again and again

It's a shame, it's a shame
It's a perfect shame
Creep under my door and we do it again, oh

Say my name, say my name, say my stupid name
It's stupid how we always seem to do it again, oh

You're so stupid and perfect
And stupid and perfect
I hate you, I want you
I hate you, I hate you, oh

Roxas POV.

8. Black Balloon - Goo Goo Dolls
Baby's black balloon makes her fly
I almost fell into that hole in your life
And you're not thinking about tomorrow
'Cause you were the same as me
But on your knees

A thousand other boys could never reach you
How could I have been the one
I saw the world spin beneath you

You know the lies they always told you
And the love you never knew
What's the things they never showed you
That swallowed the light from the sun
Inside your room

Comin' down the world turned over
And angels fall without you there
And I'll go on, I will lead you home

Riku POV.

9. Sunday Morning - No Doubt
Sappy pathetic little me
That was the girl I used to be
You had me on my knees

I'd trade you places any day
I'd never thought you could be that way
But you looked like me on Sunday

You came in with the breeze
On Sunday morning
You sure have changed since yesterday
Without any warning
And you want me badly
'Cause you cannot have me
I thought I knew you
But I've got a new view
I thought I knew you well . . . oh well

Riku POV, afterwards.
