Topic: Sweet Melodies
This will be for songs that people feel represent Rufus and Alicia in some way or other. Provide the lyrics and explain what it is about the song that you feel makes it fit them so well. It's not required, but I'm also going to encourage everyone to listen to the songs people post. I'll start with Within Temptation's song "Forsaken." I think the song fits them well because, as their fates are at the mercy of the gods, they really are forsaken by all others. Plus, gods are mentioned in the song. Also, they both hide what they're afraid of inside themselves.

Now the day has come

We are forsaken this time

We lived our lives in our paradise,

As gods we shaped the world around

No borderlines we'd stay behind,

Though balance is something fragile

While we thought we were gaining,

We would turn back the tide, it still slips away

Our time has run out, our future has died,

There's no more escape

Now the day has come,

We are forsaken,

There's no time anymore

Life will pass us by,

We are forsaken,

We're the last of our kind

The sacrifice was much too high,

Our greed just made us all go blind

We tried to hide what we fared inside

Today is the end of tomorrow

As the sea started rising,

The land that we'd conquered just washed away

Although we all have tried to turn back the tide,

It was all in vain

Now the day has come,

We are forsaken,

There's no time anymore

Life will pass us by, we are forsaken,

Only ruins stay behind

Now the day has come

We are forsaken this time

Now the day has come,

We are forsaken,

There's no time anymore

Now the day has come

The day has come

The day has come

This is a cheesey pop song, but I think that the lyrics could be about Alicia, Silmeria, and Rufus.

All You Wanted - Michelle Branch

I wanted to be like you

I wanted everything

So I tried to be like you

And I got swept away

I didn't know that it was so cold

And you needed someone

to show you the way

So I took your hand and we figured out

That when the tide comes

I'd take you away

If you want to

I can save you

I can take you away from here

So lonely inside

So busy out there

And all you wanted

was somebody who cares

I'm sinking slowly

So hurry hold me

Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on

Please can you tell me

So I can finally see

Where you go when you're gone

If you want to

I can save you

I can take you away from here

So lonely inside

So busy out there

And all you wanted

was somebody who cares

All you wanted was somebody who cares

If you need me you know I'll be there

Oh, yeah

If you want to

I can save you

I can take you away from here

So lonely inside

So busy out there

And all you wanted

was somebody who cares

Please can you tell me

So I can finally see

Where you go when you're gone

This is "Rainy Monday" by Shiny Toy Guns. It might be silly, but I could see Rufus singing it since the vocals are similar to his voice, lol.

I don't mind

You’re someone who ain't mine

But someone that I'll get

And you don't know how

Hard I've tried

To convince myself that I

Can easily forget

But you left this feeling

Here inside me

One that never fails to find me...

On a rainy Monday

...a feeling inside me

Like the days of summer

On a rainy Monday

..I feel it inside me

In the hopes of one day

I won't lie

I still can't say that I

Admit we went too far

And you won't see me change my mind

But I really wish that I

Could forget the way you are

But you left this feeling here inside me

The battle in my mind still fights me

On a rainy Monday

...a feeling inside me

Like the days of summer

On a rainy Monday

..I feel it inside me

In the hopes of one day

I can see that you're not beside me

But I still feel you shine inside of me

On a rainy Monday

...a feeling inside me

Like the days of summer

On a rainy Monday

..I feel it inside me

In the hopes of one day

This song makes me thing of Rufus and Alicia, and Valkyrie Profile in general, because it talks about rebirth of the soul, remaining trapped by the gods, etc.

Soul Society by Kamelot

If my soul could revive

From my carnal remains

What does it matter to me

If it all fades to black

If I'm born once again

Then no one really is free

How could I be condemned

For the things I have done

If my intentions were good

I guess I'll never know

Some things under the sun

Can never be understood

How can we believe in heaven

Human reason counters all

My tears are soul society

My life is just a fragment

Of the universe and more

There must be more than I can see

In the dark we're the same

In the concept of time

We're like a grain in the sand

And we sprout from the flame

As if death was a rain

'Cause we can not understand

How I wish there was a heaven

All for one and one for all

A flawless soul society

Our lives are just a fragment

Of the universe and more

There may be more than we can see

How I could I be condemned

For the things that I've done

If my intentions were good

I guess I'll never know

Some things under the sun

Can never be understood

How can we believe in heaven

All for one and one for all

My tears are soul society

Our lives are just a fragment

Of the universe and more

And maybe more than we can see

English translation of "Destiny" by Nami Tamaki. It was used on one of the MAD VP2 combo videos.

That sky I watched one day

Was connected to your heart

All I can hear whenever I close my eyes

Is a voice calling my name

What is reflected in the depths of your faraway eyes?

When I took a deep breath even the colour of the wind changed

You’re not the only one whose heart

Is at the point of collapsing under the anxiety and confusion

Even though you believe in yourself

I wish there was an answer that wouldn’t change

We’re swept away by time in a way that’s sad

That’s why we want to search for eternity

That sky I watched one day

Was connected to your heart

All I can hear whenever I close my eyes

Is a voice calling my name

There are times when we can tell each other

What we feel without saying anything

We have the kind of bond

Where we can feel even the smallest things

We’re so clumsy

We’re always going around in circles a little

But that doesn’t mean we want everything

I carried around a feeling of wanting to be satisfied

Just thinking I could bury it inside me

There’s a me that can be healed if I can find it

That sky I watched one day

Was connected to your heart

All I can hear whenever I close my eyes

Is a voice calling my name

You get stronger the more you love someone

When you find yourself you’ll be satisfied

All you’ll hear whenever you close your eyes

Is a voice calling your name

I wish there was an answer that wouldn’t change

We’re swept away by time in a way that’s sad

That’s why we want to search for eternity

That sky I watched one day

Was connected to your heart

All I can hear whenever I close my eyes

Is a voice calling my name

When I read this, I thought it really worked... I almost want to make a video to it, but getting all the clips to work is a lot of trouble for such a long song.

a little pain

by: OLIVIA inspi' REIRA (TRAPNEST)

作詞: OLIVIA・Masumi Kawamura

作曲: Hiroo Yamaguchi

Romaji & English translation by: cori

From the single a little pain

Travel to the moon

kimi wa nemuri yume wo toku

dare mo inai hoshi no hikari ayatsurinagara

。・☆。・☆・。。・☆。・☆・。

Travel to the moon

You're sleeping, solving a dream

while the light of the deserted star pulls the [puppet strings]

tsuyoku naru tame wasureta egao

kitto futari nara torimodosu

。・☆。・☆・。。・☆。・☆・。

I forgot to smile in order to be strong

I'm sure that if we're together, I can get it back

* kidzuite

I'm here waiting for you

ima to wa chigau mirai ga attemo

I'm here waiting for you

sakebitsudzukete

kitto kokoro wa tsunagu ito wo tagutteru

ano koro no watashi me wo samasu you ni

no need to cry

。・☆。・☆・。。・☆。・☆・。

Realize that

I'm here waiting for you

Even if the future is different from now

I'm here waiting for you

continuing to shout

Surely my heart is reeling in the string that connects us

No need to cry

in order to wake me up that time

Travel in silence

te wo nobaseba fureru noni

kimi wa tooi

sore wa omoide no naka no koto

。・☆。・☆・。。・☆。・☆・。

Travel in silence

When I stretch my hand out, I feel you, but

You're far away

It's within my memories

koe ga kikoeru me wo tojireba

chiisana itami sae itoshikute

。・☆。・☆・。。・☆。・☆・。

When I close my eyes, I can hear your voice

Even the small ache is dear to me

mitsumete

I'm here waiting for you

kaze ni fukare hitori mayottemo

I'm here waiting for you

sora wo miagete

zutto kokoro wa te wo hirogete mamotteru

ano koro no kimi ga furikaeru made

no need to cry

。・☆。・☆・。。・☆。・☆・。

Look at me

I'm here waiting for you

Even if I'm lost all alone with the wind blowing on me

I'm here waiting for you

My heart is protecting you all the time, my hands spread out

no need to cry

until you former self turns back

(Feel something Feel nothing

Listen closely Listen closely)

Wide open ears

Disarm the dream tickler

In the constant moment

(You will find me Where it's quiet

Listen closely Listen closely)

Let the blood flow

Through all the spaces

Of the universe

Haha. XD Looking back, my song choices are pretty corny.

I like this one though:

I know it's hard to tell how mixed up you feel Hoping what you need is behind every door Each time you get hurt, I don't want you to change Because everyone has hopes, you're human after all The feeling sometimes, wishing you were someone else Feeling as though you never belong This feeling is not sadness, this feeling is not joy I truly understand, Please, don't cry now Please don't go, I want you to stay I'm begging you please, please don't leave here I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel The world is just illusion trying to change you Please don't go, I want you to stay I'm begging you please, please don't leave here I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel The world is just illusion trying to change you Being like you are Well this is something else, who would comprehend? But some that do, lay claim that Divine purpose blesses them That's not what I believe, it doesn't matter anyway A part of your soul ties you to the next world Or maybe to the last, I'm still not sure What I do know is, to us the world is different As we are to the world but, I guess you would know that.
