Inga Liljestrom - Coming Back
I’m clutching at straws
I’m climbing up the walls
But every time I fall
Back into my hole
I’m feeling like a wretch
I’m looking for a catch
But you’re an itch that I can’t scratch
I know you’re coming back
You’ve been gone so long you’re fading
And it takes all the time I can find just retaining
Thoughts of things we did while you were here
But I know you will return my dear
Locked Up ~ Ingrid Michaelson
I have taken a wrong turn?
When will I learn?
When will I learn?
Shall I show them all my scars?
Cherry-Red bleeding burn
Like an angry apple tree
I throw my apples if you get to close to me
But if I look to my right
Will I see the one I fight for
If I look to my right
Or if I turn to my left
Will I see that I’ve kept my heart locked up
Locked up so tight

‘til Kingdom Come ~ Coldplay
In your tears and in your blood,
In your fire and in your flood,
I hear you laugh, I heard you sing,
“I wouldn’t change a single thing.”
The wheels just keep on turning,
The drummers begin to drum,
I don’t know which way I’m going,
I don’t know what I’ve become.
For you, I’d wait ‘til kingdom come,
Until my days, my days are done.
Say you’ll come and set me free,
Just say you’ll wait, you’ll wait for me.
Just say you’ll wait, you’ll wait for me.
Mumford & Sons - The Cave
It’s empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you’ve left behind
The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat
But I will hold on hope
And I won’t let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I’ll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I’ll know my name as it’s called again
Cause I have other things to fill my time
You take what is yours and I’ll take mine
Now let me at the truth
Which will refresh my broken mind
So tie me to a post and block my ears
I can see widows and orphans through my tears
I know my call despite my faults
And despite my growing fears
………..
So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker’s land
So make your siren’s call
And sing all you want
I will not hear what you have to say
Cause I need freedom now
And I need to know how
To live my life as it’s meant to be
And I will hold on hope
And I won’t let you choke
On the noose around your neck
And I’ll find strength in pain
And I will change my ways
I’ll know my name as it’s called again
Thousand Years ~ Christina Perri
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What’s standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
Mindy Gledhill - All About Your Heart
I don’t mind your odd behavior
It’s the very thing I love
If you were an ice cream flavor
You would be my favorite one
….
Oh, I’ve loved you from the start
In every single way
And more each passing day
You are brighter than the stars
Believe me when I say
It’s not about your scars
It’s all about your heart
There Is Love In Your Heart | A Mystrade Mini-Fanmix (download here)
Hardest of Hearts; Florence and the Machine
Darling heart, I’ve loved you from the start.
But that’s no excuse for the state I’m in,
The hardest of hearts.
The Resolution; Jack’s Mannequin
There’s a lot that I don’t know, there’s a lot that I’m still learning
When I think I’m letting go, find my body’s still burning
Say You’re Sorry; Sara Bareilles
I want to walk away too, but I want you to say you’re sorry
I’m not the one who went and made a mistake.
The Weekend; The Wanted
I just want you for the weekend,
I need you like the beat inside my head.Okay so I feel the need to explain this. I think Mycroft and Lestrange have a very volatile relationship since they’re both very stubborn. They care about each other so much that they get under each other’s skin and tend to get a reaction during fights, which is especially rare for Mycroft. Mycroft is the “Hardest of Hearts” and Lestrade breaks through his barriers. They’re both new to love and what it entails through hence “The Resolution”. Stubbornness leads to fights and pride leads to them being drawn out, so “Say You’re Sorry”. And “The Weekend” is a bit of make-up fun, because they’re both so tense obviously they need to have sex to get it out. Right? Right.
The Pogues - Love You ‘Till the End
I just want to see you
When you’re all alone
I just want to catch you if I can
I just want to be there
When the morning light explodes
On your face it radiates
I can’t escape
I love you ‘till the end
I just want to tell you nothing
You don’t want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Why don’t you just take me
Where I’ve never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you ‘till the end
I just want to be there
When we’re caught in the rain
I just want to see you laugh not cry
I just want to feel you
When the night puts on its cloak
I’m lost for words don’t tell me
All I can say
I love you ‘till the end
This is a great Johnlock song!
Lyrics:
Weep for yourself, my man,
You’ll never be what is in your heart
Weep Little Lion Man,
You’re not as brave as you were at the start
Rate yourself and rake yourself,
Take all the courage you have left
Wasted on fixing all the problems
That you made in your own head
But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn’t I my dear? Didn’t I my…
Tremble for yourself, my man
You know that you have seen this all before
Tremble Little Lion Man,
You’ll never settle any of your scores
Your grace is wasted in your face
Your boldness stands alone among the wreck
Now learn from you mother or else spend your days
Biting your own neck
But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn’t I my dear? Didn’t I my…

Whatever It Takes - Lifehouse
A strangled smile fell from your face
It kills me that I hurt you this way
The worst part is that I didn’t even know
Now there’s a million reasons for you to go
But if you can find a reason to stay
I’ll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know what’s at stake
I know that I’ve let you down
And if you give me a chance
Believe that I can change
I’ll keep us together whatever it takes
Howie Day ~ Collide
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You’re barely waking
And I’m tangled up in you, yeah
I’m open, you’re closed
Where I follow, you’ll go
I worry I won’t see your face
Light up again
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find you and I collide
Almost Lover ~ A Fine Frenzy
Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I’m trying not to think about you
Can’t you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should’ve known you’d bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
Dying is Fine: A Sherlock/Moriarty Fanmix
Actor Out of Work - St. Vincent [x]
You’re a boxer in the ring
With brass knuckles underneath
You’re the curses through my teeth
You’re the laughter, you’re the obscene
Surgery - The Chap [x]
Hello, hello, blood, blood, blood
We will perform surgery
Your body has things that throb
Hello, hello, surgery
Paris is Burning - St. Vincent [x]
I’m on your side when nobody is
‘Cause nobody is
Come sit right here
And sleep while I slip
Poison in your ear
I Want More - Can [x]
I don’t have to say no more
You know what I’m aiming for
Don’t care if I break a law
I want more and more
And more and more and
Disease - The Ark [x]
And if there is disease in you
I want to have that disease, too
‘Cause I want everything that is
Inside you
Land Mines - St. Vincent [x]
I’m crawling through land mines
I know ‘cause I planted them
Under cover of night
Dying is Fine - Ra Ra Riot [x]
No more of this living dying
Just scientific analyzing
Forgive us, oh life,
The sin of death
Oh that was quick
First Day Of My Life - Bright Eyes
Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go
And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you’d just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”
