if so, what are you going to listen to while you read tGS? Anything specific?

I like to pick out a new album to listen to whenever I read a new book.


So, it's gonna be Silversun Pickups - Swoon

It was just because I liked the sound, but yesterday I realized that one of the songs actually kind of fits Rand's persona, and here be the lyrics:


We are ready for the siege
We are armed up to the teeth
Be careful how you live and breathe
Release what's broken underneath

How many times do you wanna die?
How many ways do you wanna die?

Do you feel safe again? Look over your shoulder
Very carefully look over your shoulder

We can laugh about it now
We hope everything works out
Be careful how you lick your wounds
Believe that change is coming soon

How many times do you wanna die?
How many ways do you wanna die?

Do you feel safe again? Look over your shoulder
Very carefully look over your shoulder

You used to do a little, but a little won't fly
Right before you hit your prime
That's when we fell in love, but not the first time

Can I please you still?
Remain in your father's will
Or does it make you ill?

Let us bruise their knees
We went in straight for a defeat
You will be relieved

So relieved, so relieved to the flow, and desire
Bitter sparks to the friendly fire
Misery inspires

Your throwin' me cuts several times before
Never noticed the size of the flow
Make it be ignored

Do you feel safe again? Look over your shoulder
Carefully look over your shoulder

You said you believe, but believing won't fly
Right before you hit your prime
That's when we fell in love, but not the first time

And when it's all over and you open your eyes
You see the room turned on its side
And you'll be lying down and over on the floor; signed,

The Royal We (x
Love The Royal We
