Alas, I have not forgotten you all. Nor have I abandoned my promise to send out handmade postcards. Thus far I have painted 21 and only need a few more before the collection is complete. I used watercolors without thinking that they might be exposed to moisture on their journey and thus the colors may run. I can take that risk or I can stick them in little white envelopes. That is, of course, if you don't mind. Please let me know your preference I will send yours off accordingly.

With that said I fully intend to have them finished and in the post within the next week!

Its yours to keep

Chapter 1
Quicksand - Incubus
Okay
Now the monster is awake
It won't...rest until there’s nothing left

Chapter 2
Sleep Don't Weep - Damien Rice
There's times that I was broke
And you stood strong
I hope I find a place where I feel I belong
Sleep don't weep
My sweet love
My face it's all wet
'cause my day was rough

Chapter 3
Dear Time Traveller - The Scene Aesthetic
I'll approach you and wait
It's been several weeks coming
And I'd give it up, give it away
To be able to tell you how I really feel
And how I'd give it up to hear you say
Cause were counting the seconds and minutes weve spent here
Can't seem to just throw you away
When it's all said and done dear and were packing our things
Will the memories keep me thinking?

So where do we go when its all over
And will you be coming back, coming to me?

Chapter 4
Anthem of Our Dying Day - Story of the Year
The stars will cry the blackest tears tonight
And this is the moment that I live for
I can smell the ocean air.
Here I am pouring my heart on to these roof tops
Just a ghost to the world
That's exactly, exactly what I need

Chapter 5
The Moon is Down - Explosions in the Sky
(instrumental)

Chapter 6
We Belong Together - Gavin Degraw
What good is a life
With no one to share
The light of the moon
The honor of a swear
A kingdom of men
Is hollow within
Without depth
Without a care

Dead Man's Will - Iron and Wine
May my love reach you all
I locked in myself and buried too long
Now that I come to fall
Please say it's not too late
Now that I'm dead and gone

Chapter 8
La Vie en Rose - Edith Piaf
C'est toi pour moi. Moi pour toi
Dans la vie,

Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat

It's alright

Into Dust - Mazzy Star
I could possibly be fading
Or have something more to gain
I could feel myself growing colder
I could feel myself under your fate
Under your fate

Chapter 11
Two Points for Honesty - Guster
If that's all you will be
You'll be a waste of time
You've dreamed a thousand dreams
None seem to stick in your mind
Two points for honesty
It must make you sad to know that
Nobody cares at all

Chapter 12
The Night Starts Here - Stars
No one is spared
No one is clean
It travels places
You've never been
Or seen before

The night starts here
The night starts here
Forget your name
Forget your fear

I Know You Are But What Am I - Mogwai
(instrumental)

There are moments when I know it
And the world revolves around us
And we're keeping it
Keeping it all going
This delicate balance
Vulnerable
All knowing

World Spins Madly On - The Weepies
Woke up and wished that I was dead
With an aching in my head
I lay motionless in bed
The night is here and the day is gone
And the world spins madly on

(instrumental)

Feeling
Breathe in
Breathe in
I'm coming back again
I'm not the one who's
So far away
When I feel the snakebite
Enter my veins

Chapter 18
True - The Frames
I built a wall
I cut you off
Now there's no lie
That's gonna fix this up
I played the saint
And a saint I ain't
Now all the hurt
Is here again, here again

Chapter 19
Silent Woods - The Husky Rescue
Under the spruce trees
In the silent woods
Secret caves
Winter bedrooms

Hiding from the hunter
The evil man's eyes
Fields of snow
Cold ice paradise

Silent dreams
Deep sleeps, sweet friend
Let's hug
Tthen when it's spring again

I Promise You Walls - Shiny Toy Guns
Who says we die?
Before we live
I promise you walls of grace
To carry on
When we're lost
We’ll find a way

Chapter 20
A Canon - Regina Spektor
a cannon was fired by the light of the moon
I’m waiting, the boat should be here very soon
and I mind less and less all the silly
pictures that hang round my room for now
I write you a letter, I hope you feel better
I hope you forgive the transgression, I’ve given
you love and I’ve given you anger as well
and I meant them both
I always knew it was coming this way…

Chapter 21
The Red Violin - Joshua Bell

Everything about you pains my envying
Your soul can't hate anything
Everything about you is so easy to love
They're watching you from above

I said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Swirling shades of blue
Slow dancing in your eyes
Sun kisses the earth
And I hush my urge to cry

Wind in the Wires - Patrick Wolf
But see her waters break
Rain falling to the sea
Into a granite wave
A unit
A family
It’s just a sigh
Just a sigh

Your existence
They'll pull you down
Until there's no choice left but to resist them

The Ghost of You - My Chemical Romance
and all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
for all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me
if i fall, if i fall down

at the end of the world
or the last thing i see
you are never coming home, never coming home
never coming home, never coming home

Chapter 29
Same Blood - The Academy Is...
With all the people we need to love and hate
Everybody makes the same mistakes
Divided by these walls
Together we are lost

We are the same blood
All of us, we are, we are
While half of us are lost
The other half forgot

Chapter 30
Letters to God - Boxcar Racer
Caught off guard, all worked up
The air is as dark and cold as night
Let me go, I'm not done
I swear I'll take just one lifetime
And I, I won't lie, I won't sin
Maybe I don't wanna go
Can't you wait
Maybe I don't wanna go

What would you think of me now?
So lucky
So strong
So proud
Never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance

The Weight of the World - Editors
Keep a light on those you love
They will be there when you die
Baby there’s no need to fear
Baby there’s no need to cry

Every little piece in your life
Will add up to one
Every little piece in your life
Will it mean something to someone?

Chapter 33
Run - Snow Patrol
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
