I have attempted to shorten the lyrics (to only the lines I love the most) but. Have failed. (The "short" part, anyway.) Anyway, this fails to serve as companion to the sad excuse for a "story" by now (and the first mix rarely adhered, either). It's just nice music at this point, that all seem to liken to a common significance .. or something like that. (Basically, I like titles, and I like tying things together. Tying titles together?)
I am in love with so much Postal Service these days (and yes, it's a renewal of a very already long-winded love) so I'm spreading it across mixes.

* let’s drive to the beach when the hand moves midnight
the last track sounds so out of place, but so kill me for liking themes (as fish break the waters, breathing in the ocean.) but it's actually a nice finale, don't you think? i love bobby baby's voice, she reminds me of a german horan (clazziquai).
1. Weird Fishes/Arpeggi. Radiohead In the deepest ocean The bottom of the sea Your eyes They turn me Why should I stay here? Why should I stay? I'd be crazy not to follow Follow where you lead Your eyes They turn me Turn me on to phantoms I follow to the edge of the earth And fall off Everybody leaves If they get the chance And this is my chance I get eaten by the worms Weird fishes Get picked over by the worms Weird fishes, weird fishes, weird fishes I'll hit the bottom Hit the bottom and escape Escape 2. Breathing Water. FAKE? I'm so lonely I could die Stab in antennas in my mind Life it cuts me like a knife Strange I never know just why I'm so lonely I could fly I can't decide if I'm over or out Put the days that I see myself inside me In my open hand Well nevermind, it's all behind me It's always there, somewhere behind me Keep breathing over and over and over again... 3. Ocean Breathes Salty. Modest Mouse Your body may be gone, I'm gonna carry you in. In my head, in my heart, in my soul. And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both live again. Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Don't think so. The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in? In your head, in your mouth, in your soul. And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both grow old. Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I hope so. Well that is that and this is this. You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get. You get away from me. You get away from me. Collected my belongings and I left the jail. Well thanks for the time, I needed to think a spell. I had to think awhile. I had to think awhile. Well that is that and this is this. Will you tell me what you saw and I'll tell you what you missed, when the ocean met the sky. You missed when time and life shook hands and said goodbye. When the earth folded on itself. And said "Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath." You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste death? You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste death? The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in? In your head, in your mouth, in your soul. The more we move ahead the more we're stuck in rewind. Well I don't mind. I don't mind. How the hell could I mind? Well that is that and this is this. Will you tell me what you saw and I'll tell you what you missed, when the ocean met the sky. You wasted life, why wouldn't you waste the afterlife? 4. Breakwater. Bobby & Blumm --- > > bonus: Where is My Mind?. Pixies Where is my mind Way out in the water See it swimmin'? I was swimmin' in the Caribbean Animals were hiding behind the rocks Except the little fish But they told me, he swears Tryin' to talk to me, coy koi. Where is my mind Way out in the water See it swimmin'?... * somehow the stars all melt into sky bruises black and blue 1. GLASS TO THE ARSONanberlin tonight my heart is cold lost in your lies, shallow replies and gravity prevails this time it's over and you think you're the one and innocence derailed savage the poison unhurried compass east calm me with your lies your simple tragedy it's all I wish to hear tonight and you're all I wish to be and this is how we all fall tonight my heart is cold lost in your lies, shallow replies tonight I'll just let go lost in your eyes, transparent cries and we are, we are, we are the arsons who start all of your fires and we are the arsons who start all of your fires, burning burning your city down tonight my heart is cold lost in your lies, shallow replies tonight I'll just let go lost in your eyes, transparent cries tonight my heart is cold lost in your lies, shallow replies tonight I'll just let go lost in your eyes, transparent cries 2. ROSESmeg & dia turn around there's those eyes again turn around fake indifference and I watch their cold, dark silhouettes disappear. a hundred bodies fill this room. and all their faces overdone. pain is foreign, foreign to us. I don't even know you. You won't even know I'm gone. Was it something I did wrong? Roses, roses cold. Roses, roses sold out. turn around reds and whites again. I'd sell my kicks for one more low tar. fevers hand in hand with shoelace bracelets. why are some girls so naive? he didn't unbutton your blouse to see. a better view of your heart. oh yeah, can't blame you for trying sing it soft make it slow apples parachute the boys back down fill it up overflow a new, improved modern way to feel I don't even know you. You won't even know I'm gone. Was it something I did wrong? 3. KREMLIN DUSKutada hikaru All along I was searching for my Lenore In the words of Mr. Edgar Allan Poe Now I'm sober and "Nevermore" Will the Raven come to bother me at home Calling you, calling you home You... calling you, calling you home By the door you said you had to go Couldn't help me anymore This I saw coming, long before So I kept on staring out the window Calling you, calling you home You... calling you, calling you home I am a natural entertainer, aren't we all Holding pieces of dying ember I'm just trying to remember who I can call Who can I call Home... calling you, calling you I run a secret propaganda Aren't we all hiding pieces of broken anger I'm just trying to remember who I can call Can I call Born in a war of opposite attraction It isn't, or is it a natural conception Torn by the arms in opposite direction It isn't or is it a Modernist reaction Do you like this Is it always the same Will come back again Do you like this Do you like this Is it like this Is it always the same If you change your phone number, will you tell me Is it like this Is it always the same When a heartache begins, is it like this If you like this Will you remember my name Will you play it again, if you like this * and it just doesn't seem real that you're still standing there smiling at me 1. clark gable by the postal service I was waiting for a cross-town train in the London underground when it struck me That I've been waiting since birth to find a love that would look and sound like a movie so I changed my plans and rented a camera and a van and then I called you "I need you to pretend that we are in love again" and you agreed to I greased the lens and framed the shot using a friend as my stand-in the script it called for rain but it was clear that day so we faked it the marker snapped and I yelled "quiet on the set" and then called "action!" and I kissed you in a style that Clark Gable would have admired (I thought it classic) I want so badly to believe that "there is truth, that love is real" And I want life in every word to the extent that it's absurd I know you're wise beyond your years, but do you ever get the fear that your perfect verse is just a lie you tell yourself to help you get by? 2. monday by fair in the sweet glow of the light, you revive my folly when you shout like nothing dies, I can see you’re sorry when your sad mouth figures out like a child in mourning and you laugh like water drowns 'cause I hear it coming with a hold on paradise and a knack to follow you control your compromise with your white washed sorrow when your hope crawls underneath what you’re dreaming for me you're as blind as I can see when you hear it coming when you laugh you give it away sinking slow as quick sand you touch my hand you say you’re never afraid push me off the deep end and when you lie your lips curl like a wave of separation and when you laugh you know you give it away you know you give it away you know you give it away 3. her velvet voice by the juliana theory in the cracking cold your velvet voice ventures from your lips stiffly walking words, they seem to hang here you place each phrase like puzzle pieces: planned, precise, and perfect you play me like a piano or a pastime. I'm hanging like a spider in suspended time and space your thoughts are all I need to keep me breathing dig your feet in deeper plant your heels into the ground if you could grow roots down you'd be a tree now. frozen fingers fold inside the pocket of my jeans but tighter is the grip you have upon me clasping, clenching, clinging on: I'm tailor made to act upon this urge to keep you for myself forever. the man you fell for fell apart. he let his demons out of the dark. the dark. I could be your voice of reason. You can be impossible. but sunshine you shone. Sunshine you've grown. I'm just a shadow when you're not here to shine. sunshine you shone. Sunshine you've grown. I'm just a shadow when you're not here to shine. here to shine. let me hear your voice, my one and only. let me see your face. Our love: like breathing. carry me away. I'm yours completely. hide me in your arms. I don't deserve it. (let me hear your voice. let me see your face. carry me away. I'm yours completely. carry me away, carry me away... let me hear your voice...) * yet I blink and you cry and I’m still weary from wondering why 1. take me somewhere nice - Mogwai Ghosts in the photograph never lied to me. I'd be all of that I'd be all of that A false memory would be everything. A denial my eliminent. What would you do if you saw spaceships over Glasgow? Would you fear them? Every aircraft, every camera, is a wish that wasn't granted. What was that for? What was that for? Try to be bad. Try to be bad 2. the district sleeps alone tonight - The Postal Service Smeared black ink... your palms are sweaty And I'm barely listening to last demands I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's buried underneath Where I am Where I am I'll wear my badge... a vinyl sticker with big block letters adherent to my chest That tells your new friends I am a visitor here... I am not permanent And the only thing keeping me dry is Where I am Where I am Where I am D.C. sleeps alone tonight You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex A stranger with your door key explaining that I am just visiting And I am finally seing Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening And I am finally seeing Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving Why I was the one worth leaving 3. asleep - The Smiths Sing me to sleep, sing me to sleep I'm tired and I I want to go to bed Sing me to sleep Sing me to sleep And then leave me alone Don't try to wake me in the morning 'Cause I will be gone Don't feel bad for me I want you to know Deep in the cell of my heart I will feel so glad to go Sing me to sleep Sing me to sleep I don't want to wake up On my own anymore Don't feel bad for me I want you to know Deep in the cell of my heart I really want to go There is another world There is a better world Well, there must be Well, there must be Well, there must be Well, there must be Well ... Bye bye Bye bye Bye ... 4. destroy the map - 36 Crazyfists You couldn't hold your mouth to stop the sound, with all these riches on the tip of your tongue, and I was trying to dampen it all out. You were talking louder than I should hear, producing nothing but all these mirrors, and I was trying to play it all down. Sad song, so wrong, your body shakes for so long, towing me down. Let's just stay late, a safe bet for a second place. This time, my time, we have, we'll last. With eyes of blood, these kisses won't rust. Where the baptized drowned, we used to breathe. That evil, a brutal sickness brings, at times you can't let go it chases you from everything. To settle for almost anything, it's times like these when you should only choose just not to speak. Underneath the red come running back to me, come running! And the clouds don't break when the sun is on empty 5. a decade under the influence - Taking Back Sunday Well, sad, small, sweet, so delicate It used to be this dying breed... You kept still until the long drive home And slept safe and close to the window Well, I've got a bad feeling about this I've got a bad feeling about... Well sad, small, sure and porcelain You're skin and bones, I'm a nervous wreck Well I've got a bad feeling about this (when it comes to this) I've got a bad feeling about this Who's to say you have to go? (I could go all night) Well say you have to go (I could go all...) To hell with you and all your friends To hell with you and all your friends, it's on Well, I got a bad feeling about this (what is this for?) I got a bad feeling about... Anyone (anyone) will do tonight Anyone (anyone) will do tonight Close your eyes, just settle, settle (it's on...) Close your eyes, just settle, settle (it's on...) Well I got a bad feeling about this, I got a bad feeling about this (in you...). I'm coming over but it never was enough I thought it through and my worst brings out the best in you I got a bad feeling about this, I got a bad feeling about this (I am you) I got a bad feeling about this (I am...) I got it bad (you) I got it bad, I got it bad, I got it bad, I got it bad I got it bad * we'll walk until the horizon disappears into vertical vertigo the only songs that fit. ♥ 999. Autobahn, anberlin And we're driving just as fast as we can And we're racing to outrun the wind It's just me and you and you and me So wild and so young, bright-eyed and free And we're trying to get out of here As a small town romance draws ever near And I swear we're in the movie's The highlight comes when you kiss me And the stereo sings our song And we don't hesitate to sing along Drive to dream to live we could see the world tonight hear the hope tomorrow we could see the world And we're miles from the middle of nowhere And neither of us seems to care And that's why I love you so-o-o Shut your mouth girl no one has to know And times seems to drip like Dali And neither of us has a place to be So once and forever tell me all, tell me all of your dreams And we're driving just as fast as we can And we're racing to outrun the wind And the stereo sings our song We don't hesitate to sing along Drive to dream to live we could see the world tonight hear the hope tomorrow we could see the world 101.
