    Soundtrack to Monstrous: Soul Eater by Lily Mayne

    All Over You by Live for a book a monster and a human who fell in love and the evil powers that deemed their union an abomination

    our love is no other
    than me alone for me all day
    our love is like water/angels pinned down and abused

    all over you, all over me
    the sun, the fields, the sky
    I’ve often tried to hold
    the sea the sun, the fields, the tide

    Soundtrack to Monstrous: Edin by Lily Mayne

    Be There by Seafret for a book about a soldier who lost everything and the monster who gave him everything he could ever want

    I lost everything
    I threw myself in and you took me
    Where no one was there

    Well you can take what you need
    Take the air that I breathe
    And I’ll give away all that I own
    Whatever I lose
    Is put back by you in a way
    That you’ll never know

    SOUNDTRACK: Bound by Indiana

    May 13, 2023 / 1 Comment

    Soundtrack to Zero Hour: Zero Divergence by Aimee Nicole Walker

    Bound by Indiana for a book about a serial killer and the women bound to him literally and metaphorically.

    My hands are tied, admitting defeat
    You have corrupted, the innocent me
    I didn’t fight, it was always beneath
    This isn’t love, it’s dangerous
    This isn’t love, it’s dangerous
    This isn’t love, it’s dangerous

    I’m tangled up, beautifully crushed
    I’m torn to pieces, scattered like dust
    I am addicted, to the limits you push
    This isn’t love, it’s dangerous
    Dangerous
    Dangerous

    Soundtrack to Buried Passions by Andrew Grey

    Noticed by Mutemath for a book about a Broadway star who saw the invisible man who looks at him like he hung the moon.

    You and your ways capture what I’ve misplaced
    In the perfect fashion; just watch my heart’s reaction
    This point of view is nothing that I’m used to
    But I won’t close my eyes, ’cause they’re onto you
    And all this time it was staring me blind
    I can’t believe I never noticed my heart before

    The only time I ever noticed my heart
    Is when I noticed you, yeah

    A land of infinite wonders
    A billion lightyears from here now

    Jaws by Sleep Token for a book about an injured hero fighting for his home and the villain who came to save it.

    And I’m not here to be the saviour you long for
    Only the one you don’t
    Are you watching me with eyes of a predator
    As you move towards the door?

    Show me those pretty white jaws
    Show me where the delicate stops
    Show me what you’ve lost
    And why you’re always taking it slow
    Show me what wounds you’ve got
    Show me love
