Hold Onto --- A Mixtape
A mixtape inspired by Cobra Starship's "The World Has Its Shine (But I Would Drop It On A Dime)" for the mixtape challenge comm ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif){kind=small}

.notes.
one. The original prompt was the lyric, "Before I met you, I used to dream you up in my mind."
two. I failed at making an entire mix from that, so I cheated by drawing inspiration from the whole song. /o\
three. The sound of the mixtape isn't a flow-y as I wanted it to be, y'know? There's an over-arching feel, I guess, but it's not so consistent. Oh well.
four. Do not hesitate to laugh your ass off at choice #12. You know I did. But, guys, guys, that prompt asked for it...!
five. I'm so sorry for not being able to convert the Coldplay track to .mp3, guys. So sorry. D:
six. Photo credit for the photo I tweaked for the cover art goes to: Zeyad Alghannam.
seven. Feel free to take, and, if you wish, comment if you liked it/hated it/fell asleep listening to it.
eight. ENJOY! <3

I’m not one for love songs.
The way I’m living makes you feel like giving up
But you don’t,
And I want everything for you.
But you don’t,
And I want everything for you.
THIS IS FOR REAL - Motion City Soundtrack
You are the night light,
Ripping through my wicked world
How you make it sparkle and glow,
Before I lose control, there's just one thing you should know
This is for real, this time I mean it
I'm coming clean, please don't let go
ALL THAT I AM - Rob Thomas
I am the one winged bird for flying
Sinking quickly to the ground
See your faith in me subsiding
See you prime for giving in
I give you all that I am
You are the night light,
Ripping through my wicked world
How you make it sparkle and glow,
Before I lose control, there's just one thing you should know
This is for real, this time I mean it
I'm coming clean, please don't let go
ALL THAT I AM - Rob Thomas
I am the one winged bird for flying
Sinking quickly to the ground
See your faith in me subsiding
See you prime for giving in
I give you all that I am
My disappointment
‘Cause you’ve been left behind
And the world has its shine,
I would drop it on a dime for you.
GREEN EYES - Coldplay (.m4a)
I think you should know that, green eyes, you’re the one that I wanted to find
And anyone who tried to deny you must be out of their mind
CHASING CARS (ACOUSTIC) - Natasha Bedingfield
If I lay here, if I just lay here,
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I think you should know that, green eyes, you’re the one that I wanted to find
And anyone who tried to deny you must be out of their mind
CHASING CARS (ACOUSTIC) - Natasha Bedingfield
If I lay here, if I just lay here,
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
And whatever it takes.
I’m gonna make my way home.
We can turn our backs on the past
And start over…
LET ME TAKE YOU THERE - Plain White T's
I know a place that we can run to
And do those things we want to
They won't know who we are
SWEET AND LOW (ACOUSTIC) - Augustana
Hold me down, sweet and low, little girl
Hold me down, and I'll carry you home
STELLAR (ACOUSTIC) - Incubus
Meet me in outerspace
We could spend the night, watch the earth come up
I've grown tired of that place, wont you come with me
We could start again
Not long ago, I gave up hope,
But you came along
You gave me something I could hold on to.
And I want you more than you could ever know.
SOMEONE ELSE'S LIFE - Joshua Radin
Then there's you.
Then came you.
When I'm lost,
I look at my picture of you.
I SHALL BELIEVE - Sheryl Crow
Open the door
And show me your face tonight
I know it's true
No one heals me like you
And you hold the key
SO CONTAGIOUS - Acceptance
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on so contagiously
Then there's you.
Then came you.
When I'm lost,
I look at my picture of you.
I SHALL BELIEVE - Sheryl Crow
Open the door
And show me your face tonight
I know it's true
No one heals me like you
And you hold the key
SO CONTAGIOUS - Acceptance
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on so contagiously
Before I met you, I used to dream you up and make you up in my mind
And all I ever wanted was to be understood.
You’ve been the only one who could.
I could never turn my back on you.
SLOW SHOW - The National
You know I dreamed about you
for twenty-nine years before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for twenty-nine years
♠BONUS TRACKS♠
I KNEW I LOVED YOU - Savage Garden
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
THE WORLD HAS ITS SHINE (BUT I WOULD DROP IT ON A DIME) - Cobra Starship
