Songs for Apocalypse

My goal of 'chapter' five, Apocalypse, is one word: epic. For these reasons.

1. Cil's evil; Shadow doesn't care.
2. We meet the rest of Char's family- sister Raven and brothers Shinji and Senri.
3. Thane and Rin (and possibly Twilight; undecided) head to Earth school.
4. Char comes to Earth.
5. Shinji turns good, after the events in book 3-and-a-half, Flight.
6. Finally some Zeph and Ari relationship goodness.

Quote that describes the events of Apocalypse perfectly:
"Let's see... Shade is going to kill Shad if Ash doesn't first, Zeph and Mi are kicking the crap out of the guy Ari has a crush on, and Izzy is being... well, Izzy." -Ocie.

'Nuff said.

Most themes will describe different things, some lingering on Shadow and Cilver's nonexistant relationship and Shadow's seperation between the rest of the gang.

"Say This Sooner" by The Almost (Shadow's Theme)

No one will ever see things the way I do
No one will try
All my friends think that I'm gone
But I swear, I swear I'm not...

"The City is at War" by Cobra Starship (theme of Apocalypse)

The city is at a war
Playtime for the young and rich
Ignore me if you see me 'cause I just don't give a s***
The city is at war
Bless the young and rich
With designer drugs and designer friends

"Snitches and Talkers Get Stitches and Walkers" by Fall Out Boy (for Shadow)

Show me, show me, show me a starry-eyed kid
I, I, I will break his jaw
I won't, I won't, I won't let him get his hopes up
No-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
And I will save him from himself
Here's a picture with a no-note
"Don't turn out like me"
It's only for your own good
No-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

"Hemorrhage" by Fuel (for Shadow)

Don't fall away and leave me to myself
Don't fall away and leave love bleeding in my hands, in my hands again
And leave love bleeding in my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding

"Beautiful Disaster" by Jon McLaughlin (for Ari)

She would change everything for happy ever after
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster
She just needs someone to take her home

"One Step Closer" by Linkin Park (for Ash)

Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break

"Time is Running Out" by Muse (for Shadow)

you will be the death of me
you will be the death of me
bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

"Teenagers" by My Chemical Romance (for the Riisus)

They said all teenagers scare the living s*** out of me
They could care less as long as someone'll bleed
So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me

"I'm Not Okay" by My Chemical Romance (for Shadow)

What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems
I've told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means
To be a joke and look, another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time take a good hard look

"Atrophy" by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus (for Cilver)

They've sold you
everything you need to fix you up
and you feel good now but you can't wake up
they found a way to reassure you that everything would be okay
reach out today now I emplore you to
remember who you are

"The End" by Simple Plan

Don't, don't let me go
It's not the end, whoa
Girl you know it's not so bad
It's not the end, whoa
No it's not the end

"Heart of Glass" by Skye Sweetnam (for Shadow and Ari)

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

"Animal I Have Become" by Three Days Grace (for Shinji)

I can't escape myself
So many times i've lied
But there's still rage inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can't control myself

"Everything You Want" by Vertical Horizon (for Ari on the ZephAriElias triangle)

He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why
