    SOUNDTRACK: Seed by The Academy Is, Seeds by Yoke Lore & Seeds of Gold by Closure in Moscow

    Soundtrack to Resurrectionist: The Shooting Season by Isobel Starling

    Seed by The Academy Is for a book about old lovers, new betrayals, and different perspectives.

    Subjects are thrown around the room
    Looking for the ones that got away
    A feeling of soft anticipation
    Another confrontation I won’t make
    But how do we do it?
    We turned into something else entirely, we fake it
    But I wanted it so desperately to be real

    Run, run, holding on to some pieces that you left behind
    Hope now, as I walk away, you’re the one that finds me out
    Run from the only thing left that I hold close

    Soundtrack to Resurrectionist: The Gentleman’s Thief by Isobel Starling

    Seeds by Yoke Lore for a book about a lonely gentleman, a mysterious lover, secrets to unravel and a mission to conquer.

    I remember the first words that you ever said
    Burried soft like seeds deep in my chest
    I wanna know who you are
    I wanna know who you are

    Your hands like winter, eyes like wings
    And the first kiss cut like ice in the spring
    I wanna know who you are
    I sleep deep in the dark

    ….
    Stumble into love like a challenge above
    But I ache with the fear that my fate is to yell and to yearn

    Soundtrack to Resurrectionist: Infernal Vices by Isobel Starling

    Seeds of Gold by Closure in Moscow for a book about beautiful liars, willing victims, and the tricky problem of getting them out.

    A liar of the sharpest tongue
    We can’t be something we’re not
    I’ve met with the winged things baying
    And they feed off the winter lurking in your mind
    I can see it in your eyes
    I just want you to get out
    I just want you to get out

    But once you were
    Beautiful enough to bear seeds of gold
    I didn’t sow much
    You would hold me and I would stare
    A pillar of salt whisked away by the air
    Beautiful right from the start
    I loved your soul enough to leave in the cold

    Subjects are thrown around the room
    Looking for the ones that got away
    A feeling of soft anticipation
    Another confrontation I won’t make
    But how do we do it?
    We turned into something else entirely, we fake it
    But I wanted it so desperately to be real

    Run, run, holding on to some pieces that you left behind
    Hope now, as I walk away, you’re the one that finds me out
    Run from the only thing left that I hold close

    While he’s letting you in
    You’ve got the feeling you’ve been followed under your skin
    It will be weighing on your shoulder, believe it

    If I could express it in a different dialect or in a delicate way
    I’d capture the phrases inside the cage beneath my chest
    And keep it locked for days
    I wanted you so desperately to believe me

    Run, run, why are you running from another conversation?
    Someone that I’ve been planning on, you’re the one that finds me out
    There’s nowhere, now I found you, that I won’t go

    While he’s letting you in
    You’ve got the feeling you’ve been followed under your skin
    It will be weighing on your shoulder
    You’ve got that seed in you
    You’ve got that seed in you

    Run, run, what are you running from?
    Let all your small steps expose your secrets
    You don’t have to speak for me to believe it
    But what do you mean? Yeah…

    Shaken and faint, you’ve got the feeling
    You’ve been followed under your skin
    It will be weighing on your shoulder
    You’ve got that seed in you
    You’ve got that seed in…
    While letting you in
    You’ve got the feeling you’ve been followed
    Are you listening to anything I’ve said, said
    To anything I’ve said, said
    You’ve got that seed in you

    Shaken and faint, it was the hardest thing to swallow
    Pretending you don’t miss me
    You’ve got that seed in you
    You’ve got that seed in…
    While letting you in, I’ll be thinking about tomorrow
    And every time we cross those lines
    You’ve got that seed in you
    You’ve got that seed in…

    I hope now, as I walk away, you’re the one that finds me out

    I remember the first words that you ever said
    Burried soft like seeds deep in my chest
    I wanna know who you are
    I wanna know who you are

    Your hands like winter, eyes like wings
    And the first kiss cut like ice in the spring
    I wanna know who you are
    I sleep deep in the dark

    So come and take it all, leave a note for the world
    I’ll be back from the sky
    When the red earth cries for the girls
    Stumble into love like a challenge above
    But I ache with the fear that my fate is to yell and to yearn

    White roses at the front door
    Our legs intertwined when it rains on the porch
    I wanna know who you are
    I hunt for blood like a shark

    So I’m running back to the lock of your arms
    Baby, you know I never hit the mark
    I wanna know who you are
    ‘Cause you’re the reason I’ve got so far

    So come and take it all, leave a note for the world
    I’ll be back from the sky
    When the red earth cries for the girls
    Stumble into love like a challenge above
    But I ache with the fear that my fate is to yell and to yearn

    I leave it up to all the will that lives inside me
    But I’d kill to keep you here right next to me
    There’s something in the way I’m lifted
    When I hear your name there’s nothing
    That can touch what you have made

    So come and take it all, leave a note for the world
    I’ll be back from the sky
    When the red earth cries for the girls
    Stumble into love like a challenge above
    But I ache with the fear that my fate is to yell and to yearn

    A liar of the sharpest tongue
    We can’t be something we’re not
    I’ve met with the winged things baying
    And they feed off the winter lurking in your mind
    I can see it in your eyes
    I just want you to get out
    I just want you to get out

    But once you were
    Beautiful enough to bear seeds of gold
    I didn’t sow much
    You would hold me and I would stare
    A pillar of salt whisked away by the air
    Beautiful right from the start
    I loved your soul enough to leave in the cold

    Just when I think that I’ll be safer out here
    By picking up the pace, covering ground
    Something is looming wicked in these clouds
    And calling me back
    Where will I run when all these winged things circle over my head?
    When you’re young in the wild
    Living in denial
    You’ll never survive

    But once you were
    Beautiful enough to bear seeds of gold
    I didn’t sow much
    You would hold me and I would stare
    A pillar of salt whisked away by the air
    Beautiful right from the start
    I loved your soul enough to leave in the cold

    I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
    If it’s your voice that dissolves on the brittle light
    You supplicate from the place I dare not tread
    And ask me to lay myself bare
    But you are dressed in night and snow

    Beautiful enough to bear seeds of gold
    I didn’t sow much
    You would hold me and I would stare
    A pillar of salt whisked away by the air
    Beautiful right from the start
    I loved your soul enough to leave in the cold

    (Into the cold and I’ll go)
    Into the shroud
    (Into the cold and I’ll go)
    Into the shroud
    (Now that I know we’re one in the same)
    Into the shroud

    ‘Cause you’re young in the wild
    Living in denial
    You’ll never survive
    (Now that I know we’re one in the same)

    (Into the shroud)
    So young in the wild
    Living in denial
