SOUNDTRACK: Run by Hozier
Soundtrack to The Venetian and The Rum Runner by L.A. Witt
I chose this Hozier ballad for a book about an Irish gang working for an Italian mobster because the singer explained that this is a song based on a James Joyce quote about Ireland. I also relate the lines “Rare is this love, keep it covered / I need you to run to me, run to me, lover / Run until you feel your lungs bleeding” to Danny being magnetically drawn to the Italian mobster despite all that he stood for and Carmine offering protection to the hostile Irishman who made his heart beat faster.

Rare is this love
Keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleedingOh but the farrow know
Her hungry eyes, her ancient soul
It’s carried by the sneering menagerieKnow what it is to grow
Beneath her sky, her punishing cold
To slowly learn of her ancient miseryTo be twisted by something
A shame without a sin
Like how she twisted the bog man
After she married himRare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleedingBut in all the world
There is one lover worthy of her
With as many souls claimed as sheBut for all he’s worth
He still shatters always on her earth
The cause of every tear she’d ever weepRushing to shore to meet her
Foaming with loneliness
White hands to fondle and beat her
Give her his onlinessRare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleeding
Rare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleedingRare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleeding
Rare is this love, keep it covered
I need you to run to me, run to me, lover
Run until you feel your lungs bleeding -

Don’t take this the wrong way
You knew who I was with every step that I ran to you
Only blue or black days
Electing strange perfections in any stranger I chooseWould things be easier if there was a right way?
Honey there is no right wayAnd so I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone newThere’s an art to life’s distractions
To somehow escapes the burning weight, the art of scraping through
Some like to imagine
The dark caress of someone else, I guess any thrill will doWould things be easier if there was a right way?
Honey there is no right wayAnd so I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone newI wake at the first crink of morning
And my heart’s already sinned
How pure, how sweet a love, Aretha, that you would pray for him?‘Cause God knows I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit
Every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every dayLove with every stranger the stranger the better
Love with every stranger the stranger the better
Love with every stranger the stranger the better
Love with every stranger the stranger the betterI fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new
I fall in love just a little ol’ little bit every day with someone new -
SOUNDTRACK: Blood by Hozier
Soundtrack to The Vampire’s Club 4 by X. Aratare
-
Tryin’ hard to recognise
Some pure motive inside of me
A creature that would horrify
Any child that I used to be
Oh, give no faith to show
Started to smile so I showed my teeth
No more than flesh and bone
Doin’ so much just to watch someone bleedBut I love the very blood of you
It keeps its heat in spite of you
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me alwaysTryin’ hard, I nearly find
Innocence in spite of me
Oh, creature that would terrify
Any child left inside of me
Oh, that’s a cold insight
Nothin’ above us and nothin’ below
Ahh, but you might be right
If there is no heaven and there is no soulI just love the very blood of you
It keeps its heat in spite of you
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me always
Always, always, always
Oh, I love the very blood of you
It keeps its heat in spite of you
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me always
Oh, I love the very blood of you
Leaks and squeeks you black and blue
Oh, the heart that beats
To keep you here with me always -
