    SOUNDTRACK: Pieces by Andrew Belle

    October 27, 2023 / 1 Comment

    Soundtrack to Vitale Brothers: Take Me Apart by Brea Alepou & Skyler Snow

    Pieces by Andrew Belle for a book about forbidden love, betrayal, falling apart, and falling back together.

    You and me got ourselves a problem
    I can see this better than I solve ’em
    I believed I found a way around it
    I will leave this better than I found it

    There’s too much smoke to see it
    There’s too much broke to feel this
    I love you, I love you
    And all of your pieces
    …

    History’s a letter made of scarlet
    Victories look better when you’ve called it
    Misery’s the moment when I lost you
    It’s pleasure in a costume
    It’s more than what it cost you

    You’re showing me the way I should go
    Life is better when I simply trust in You
    Fly together

    Ooh, ooh, ooh
    It has never looked better
    You’re the great treasure

    Soundtrack to Confetti Hitched: Confetti Hearts by Lily Morton

    Confetti by Grand Lotus for a book about weddings, divorce, broken hearts, and marriage made whole.

    Promise that I told you from the start
    Never wanted things to break apart
    Left me here surrounded by the dark
    All I really needed was a spark

    Give it all a rest
    I’ll only fight it if you
    Made me
    Wear it on my chest
    I get excited when you
    Are near me

    …

    Know we’ve been here a million times before
    Sorry that it seems like I’m appalled
    Never needed change to go this far
    Keep me in your mind and in your heart

    Soundtrack to Pretty Policeman by Fifer Rose

    Sugar by Tonic for a book about pretty cops on a mission, dashing mafiosos to the rescue, and true love as predicted by a beloved nona.

    Come on baby get your shoes on
    You’re looking like you need a rescue
    Underneath the southern moonlight
    Where only I can find you
    We can do it with our eyes closed
    We can sit and talk for hours
    Underneath the golden flowers
    Where my sunshine grows

    …

    I waited so long for a love so true
    So I’m giving it all right back to you
    I’m giving you my best of silver
    I’m giving you my best of gold

    Soundtrack to Tennebrose: Malum Discordiae by Ashlyn Drewek

    Tethered to the Dark by Anya Marina for a book about a blood witch and a stormbringer brought together by death, history, magic, and love.

    I see an omen in the sky
    A blood red moon shines on you and I
    And the raven calls, “Hey do you believe?”
    I do believe, I do believe, I do believe

    We’ll take an oath on bended knee
    Side by side, one and all, we’re thick as thieves
    Cause nothing’s gonna break this bond of blood
    We will be one, we will be one, we will become

    I will creep into your heart (ah ah ah)
    You won’t even feel it start (ah ah ah)
    We’ll be tethered to the dark (ah ah, ah ah, ah ah)

    Danger by Etro Anime for a book about a hard-won union between two dangerous men out to kill each other, a secret that threatened to tear them apart, and a single-minded determination that brought them together again and again.

    Things have gone wrong
    They do more often than they don’t
    I was a child before
    A soldier in defense
    I’ll take the leap

    I’ve gone so far for lesser gold
    I wanna know this life
    By your side
    I don’t wanna try to fight this love
    How dangerous can it be
    I know the odds are so unfavorable
    And honesty’s forsakable
    So many run for safety

    Hear me now, I’m an alien lover

    I’m lovesick baby for your saturnine behavior
    Heard your flavor makes you come off even stranger

    Bring it on, my heart is strong

    The smoke will be my proof

    You thought you stole

    I don’t care about what he said she said

    I don’t care what you did last weekend
    I don’t care what they pretend to do

    Let’s go back…
    Together, but a little off track
