SOUNDTRACK Trust by Half-Alive
Soundtrack to West Coast Mobsters: His Sinful Need by Leighton Greene
Trust by Half Alive for a book about trust, loyalty and Family ties, either lost, broken, hard-won, or unbreakable.
Trust is a tree that towers 50 feet above us
Grown over time through many seasons
Believing in something more than just the surface
I trust that this is worth it
But my toes are hanging off the ledgeLord, help me, there’s a thorn in my side
I feel the tension in the fear and truth
I carry life in between the divide
But all the wrestling has left me bruisedHow sweet, the taste of certainty
The gift you gave is safe with me.….
I see the walls that are torn and bent
The tug of war in the now, not yet
Holding back what they can’t contain
Can you tell me why I feel this way? -

It’s time to leave, the clouds are hanging low
The truth begins to showLover, hunter, friend and enemy
You will always be every one of these
Lover, hunter, friend and enemy
You will always be every one of these
Nothing’s fair in love and warIn life, in love, this time I can’t afford to lose
For one, for all, I’ll do what I have to do
You can’t understand, it’s all part of the plan -
SOUNDTRACK: Peacemaker by Animal Collective
Soundtrack to Sharps and Springfield: Peacemaker by Morgan Brice
Peacemaker by Animal Collective for a book about good men racing to stop the power hungry rich from spreading darkness across the land.
Got sold steam it’s landed right right
Right rose stop comes up to choke us
Knee jerk to the real jerk
Shades in shadows of a too great land
It’s hereIn the chaos of some billionaires
Some stink among the weeds
It’s good to slather on the mantis
It’s good to rest upon the clean
With a timber built from ages
Something stirs within the leaves and it can rest upon the paper
Not to keep the seat the same so get up in -
SOUNDTRACK: Scar by Joe Henry
Soundtrack to West Coast Mobsters: His Brutal Heart by Leighton Greene
Scar by Joe Henry for a book about a lonely king on a precarious throne and the fearless boy who embraced the king’s darkness, power, fears, and joy.
What does this look like to you?
A mark so fine, you barely see
You have one just like it, too—
A twisting vine
A mark so fine;
Cause I love you with all I am
And you love me because you are
As fearless as a twisting vine
A mark so fine
But still a scar…
And your window is like a star
That I sit beneath like a vagabond
Who wears his fear
Just like a scar…
The blade of our outrageous fortune
Like a parade, it cuts a path
Light shows on our foolish way
And darkness on
Our aftermath;
If I love you to save myself
And you love me because we are
So fool to think that our parade
Could leave a path
But not a scar -

I feel the breeze, feel feathers of an arrow
Out in my yard, feathers of an arrow
I take my aim, do you feel me coming close?
I take my aim so you feel me coming closeWould you take a
Calm and tender, terminal kind of care?
Would you touch me
Cling and wage an intimate fight for me?
If you’re thinking anything
If you’re thinking endlessly
If you’re thinking anything
If you’re thinking -

Soundtrack to Fire and Valor: The Prince’s Dragon by W.M. Fawkes & Sam Burns
The Naked Hero by Vaundy for a book about a hunger for power, a search for healing, a will to protect, and a wish to reunite.
Shake off the malice that resides deep within power
Sure you might not hear
But what the hero needs right now isn’t just power
Let yourself be
Watch these tiny hands now All those things that I’ve fallen in love with
And the curse that fell down upon me that day too
All those feelings of falling in love
Give me enough light to protect what I adore ….
It’s a pair of two, bonded with tears
Of sorrow accompanied by strength
Love seems to be breaking something
It’s a pair of two, bonded with tears
Skepticism just keeps overflowing
The hand that carried all of this -

Your skin is so on fire
Maybe we’re not so lonely, right?

And I will run with you

Let me see
What you have found -
SOUNDTRACK: Gold by Loi
Soundtrack to Fool’s Gold by Ki Brightly & M.D. Gregory
Gold by Loi for a book about a bad boy, a good boy and the complicated world that tried to tear them apart.
The sun leaves, and I’m waving goodbye, but these
Street lights, they still shining bright, lately
I was getting kinda used to the dark
But it never got too close to my heart (eh-ayy)But then I saw you walk through the room, and your
Sweet eyes, they were shining through every
Little corner ’til our eyes would meet
And suddenly it’s all I can see-e-eAll these complications
Lonely isolations
I can see them fade awayI can feel the sunshine in my life
I’m just a little happier by your side
Hold my hand when I need you the most
It’s your love that is weighted in gold
