-Major WIP-

Song: Guardian Angel
Artist: Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVi-wIOZqGs&playnext=1&videos=IGrPWHJldZU
Character(s): Russia and China
Additional Notes?: This song really does sum up the type of relationship that Russia and China have.
Excerpt:"When I see your smile
Tears run down my face
I can't replace
And now that I'm stronger I've figured out

How this world turns cold
And breaks through my soul
And I know, I'll find deep inside me
I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to Heaven

It's okay, it's okay, it's okay

Seasons are changing and waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you, I'll be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to Heaven

'Cause you're my, you're my, my
My true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away

'Cause I'm here for you
Please don't walk away
And please tell me, you'll stay, stay

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know, I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to Heaven"

Song: You Opened My Eyes
Artist: Bosson
Link: (Link to the song here..youtube, playlist.com, etc.)
Character(s): Russia to China
Additional Notes?:
Excerpt:"You opened my eyes
you make me believe
that there is a chance for a guy like me.
You opened my eyes
to a whole new world for me.

Baby don’t you know
that all I wanted was to be by your side
to find a way to the light through the dark.
You saw the man that I was deep inside... ah huh...
There’s a voice,
that was screamin' inside of my head
but I was quiet and peaceful instead.
Yes I have learnt from the things that you said... ah huh...

[Chorus]
You opened my eyes
you make me believe
that there is a chance for a guy like me.
you opened my eyes,
you showed me someone that no one else can see.
You opened my eyes
you bring me the sun.
you make me believe I am someone.
you opened my eyes
to a whole new world for me.

I was lost,
I was scared I was losing my mind.
Running away from myself all the time,
coz there was something I was waiting to find... ah huh...
There you were, coz God has sent me an angel from above.
You gave me strength, and you showed me how to love,
for that, I'm thankful for the rest of my life... ah huh...

You opened my eyes
you make me believe
that there is a chance for a guy like me.
you opened my eyes,
you showed me someone that no one else can see.
you opened my eyes
you bring me the sun,
you make me believe I am someone.
you opened my eyes,
to a whole new world for me.

Now you’re gone
and though it hurts to know you’re with someone new,
you know I always wanted the best for you.
You deserve to get the best in life too,
I'm grateful for the time with you...
oooh..."

Song: Heartbeat
Artist: Scouting for Girls
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=f15_K74r58U&feature=related
Character(s): Russia to China
Additional Notes?: Ivan's POV about his feelings toward China.
Excerpt:"Am I alone in your heart?
Have I hope with your heart?
She's such a teaser, she's such a star.
Give me a reason or gimme a chance.
Am I alone in your heart, or am I alone...?
It tears me apart.
Am I alone?

Doing all I can do, just to be close to you.
Every time that we meet, I skip a heartbeat.
Always up for a laugh, she's a pain in the arse.
Every time that we meet, I skip a heartbeat.

Give me an evening, or give me a night.
I'll show you the time, of your life.
I'll walk you home safe, from the dark.
I'll give you my jacket, I'll give you my heart.
But she won't come dancing tonight,
She's having the time of her life.

Am I alone?
Doing all I can do, just to be close to you.
Every time that we meet, I skip a heartbeat.
Always up for a laugh, she's a pain in the arse.
Every time that we meet, I skip a heartbeat."

Song: My Soul Ghost
Artist: Dana Kerstein
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eb74leGLQA&feature=related
Character(s): China about Russia
Additional Notes?: I believe this is after the Sino-Soviet Split..
Excerpt:"I hear silent whisper
And I know you are a ghost
I watch your shadow linger
And I feel your ghost
How long, how far do I need to go?
Before your splinter heart
Opens up and takes my soul
My soul

Inside the darkest corners of a haunted mind
I see scattered pictures of a lonely child
How long, how far do I need to go?
Before your splinter heart
Opens up and takes my soul
My soul

And all I feel inside me
Is an empty space
I know you want to haunt me
But you leave no trace
How long, how far do I need to go?
Before your splinter heart
Opens up and takes my soul
My soul
My soul
My soul"

Song: Come Wander
Artist: Agua de Annique
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKQ-HMNEFCA&feature=related
Character(s): China about Russia
Additional Notes?:
Excerpt:"He said
Come wander with me, Love
Come wander with me
Away from this sad world
Come wander with me

He came from the sunset
He came from the sea
He came from my sorrow
And can love only me

Oh where is the wanderer
Who wandered this way
He's passed on his wandering
And will never go away

He sang of a sweet love
Of dreams that would be
But I was sworn to another
And could never be free"

Song: Dance With the Devil
Artist: Breaking Benjamin
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=75PPZp4yDeE&feature=related
Character(s): Russia and China
Additional Notes?:
Excerpt:"Here I stand, helpless and left for dead.

Close your eyes, so many days go by.
Easy to find what's wrong, harder to find what's right.

I believe in you, I can show you that I can see right through all your empty lies.

I won't stay long, in this world so wrong.

[Chorus:]
Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight.
Don't you dare look at him in the eye, as we dance with the devil tonight?

Trembling, crawling across my skin.
Feeling your cold dead eyes, stealing the life of mine.

I believe in you, I can show you that I can see right through all your empty lies.

I won't last long, in this world so wrong.

[Chorus]

Hold on. Hold on.

[Chorus]

Hold on. Hold on.

Goodbye."

Song: Magnet
Artist: Mikuo and Luki
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OG6c0ghL3EY&playnext=1&videos=CpeixjiQWD0
Character(s): Russia and China
Additional Notes?: Even kinda sounds like them, doesn't it? While this song fits all the couples of the board, thought this version of it needed to be here.
Excerpt:"In the deepest part of me, a tiny flame was lighted
And before I knew it, my whole heart became ignited
Wand’ring as a butterfly, I aimlessly took flight, and
Found myself falling apart alighted in your palm

Let go of my hands entwined around your own
And instead I’ll press my lips against yours
Even if they say that what we have is wrong
When you’re with me, I burn up all the more

I want you to hold me tight
And reassure me every night
Make me believe that no matter what they say, we’re in love, baby
Kiss me in the dark
Like we could never come apart
Intoxicated by you, I am consumed, wanna drown in this fantasy

Need you to restrain me, I need you to need me more and more
If you love me, show me, and know me further than you’ve gone before
Call it “weird”, but this love is something that I simply can’t ignore
Let’s just run until we find somewhere to run to

If it seems I’ve let my heart lead me astray
It’s because I’ve melted my life with hers
So much pressure weighs upon our shoulders that
we can’t be soft-touchers or whisperers

This isn’t just another dream
For sure, this is the real thing
This is reality, you and I, together and face-to-face
With the knowledge that
From this point on we can’t go back
But that’s okay, because I’d give up the world just to be with you, precious one

Dawn breaks colder than I’ve ever seen before
I’m driven to tears by anxiety
Then you whispered to me “It’ll be okay”
But I could hear your voice was wavering

I want you to hold me tight
And reassure me every night
Make me believe that no matter what they say, we’re in love, baby
Kiss me in the dark
Like we could never come apart
Intoxicated by you, I am consumed, wanna drown in you

Looking in your eyes
I’m absolutely magnetized
If they took me away, God, I swear that I’d be pulled back to you
This I know is true
And on my life I promise you
I’ll be okay, because I’d give up the world just to see you, my precious one "

Song: This Used to be My Playground
Artist: Madonna
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNyCjHXUyYI
Character(s): Russia and China
Additional Notes?:
Excerpt:"This used to be my playground [used to be]
This used to be my childhood dream
This used to be the place I ran to
Whenever I was in need
Of a friend
Why did it have to end
And why do they always say

Don't look back
Keep your head held high
Don't ask them why
Because life is short
And before you know
You're feeling old
And your heart is breaking
Don't hold on to the past
Well that's too much to ask

(chorus)
Live and learn
Well the years they flew
And we never knew
We were foolish then
We would never tire
And that little fire
Is still alive in me
It will never go away
Can't say goodbye to yesterday [can't say goodbye]

No regrets
But I wish that you
Were here with me
Well then there's hope yet
I can see your face
In our secret place
You're not just a memory
Say goodbye to yesterday [the dream]
Those are words I'll never say [I'll never say]

This used to be my playground [used to be]
This used to be our pride and joy
This used to be the place we ran to
That no one in the world could dare destroy

(Short and movie versions only:)

This used to be our playground [used to be]
This used to be our childhood dream
This used to be the place we ran to
I wish you were standing here with me"

Song: She Will Be Loved
Artist: Maroon 5
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWaTLHM3Hf4&feature=related
Character(s): China to Russia
Additional Notes?:
Excerpt:"I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I’ve had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don’t mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get insecure
It doesn’t matter anymore

It’s not always rainbows and butterflies
It’s compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door’s always open
You can come anytime you want

I don’t mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls"

Song: Russian Roulette
Artist: Rhianna
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4T4EB3dl9j8
Character(s): Russia and China
Additional Notes?: Sino-Soviet Split.
Excerpt:"Take a breath, take it deep
Calm yourself, he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take a gun, and count to three
I’m sweating now, moving slow
No time to think, my turn to go

[Chorus ]
And you can see my heart beating
You can see it through my chest
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
Know that I must must pass this test
So just pull the trigger

Say a prayer to yourself
He says close your eyes
Sometimes it helps
And then I get a scary thought
That he’s here means he’s never lost

(Chorus)

As my life flashes before my eyes
I’m wondering will I ever see another sunrise?
So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye
But it’s too late too pick up the value of my life"

Song: Boy With the Thorn in His Side
Artist: The Smiths
Link: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHaej_x6RoU&feature=related
Character(s): China about Russia
Additional Notes?:
Excerpt:"The boy with the thorn in his side
behind the hatred there lies
a murderous desire for love
how can they look into my eyes
and still they dont believe me
how can they hear me say those words
and still they dont believe me
and if they don't believe me now
will they ever believe me?
and if they don't believe me now
will they ever believe me?

The boy with the thorn in his side
behind the hatred there lies
a plundering desire for love
how can they see the Love in our eyes
and still they don't believe us
and after all this time
they don't want to believe us
and if they dont believe us now
will they ever believe us ?
andd when you want to Live
how do you start ?
where do you go ?
who do you know"

Character(s): Russia/China
Additional Notes?: Totally them, even now.
Excerpt:

If the sun shuts down and decided not to shine no more
I would still have you, baby
If we see the last day and they say we gotta go to war
I'll be fighting with you, baby
Cuz I know if I'm falling, you won't let me hit the ground
If the boat is sinking, I know you won't let me drown

No matter what anyone could say
This is the only place for me
And no one could ever take that away
Nothing could come between us

If the sun shuts down and decided not to shine no more (No more)
I would still have you, you, you ,you, you, you, you
If we see the last day and they say we gotta go to war (To War)
I'll be fighting with you, you, you ,you, you
Because it's us against the world
The world, the world
You know it's us against the world
The world, the world, ohh

Now if I'm lost at sea 7 days I'm not alone
If I'm holding you, you, you, you, you
And if it all end's; everybody in the world is gone
I'll be standing with you, baby
And if it's the last breath I take
I'll leave my kiss my with you
If there's a wall between us, baby
I know I'll break through

No matter what anyone could say
This is the only place for me
And no one could ever take that away
Nothing could come between us

If the sun shuts down and decided not to shine no more (No more)
I would still have you, you, you ,you, you, you, you
If we see the last day and they say we gotta go to war (To War)
I'll be fighting with you, you, you ,you, you
Because it's us against the world

Nothing's stronger now than you and I
Cuz your love is all I got
And this ain't never gon' stop
No, whoa
There's no distance here when we're apart
Come on in from the cold
Lay your head on my shoulder
Ride like a soldier
I'ma stay right here

If the sun shuts down and decided not to shine no more (No more)
I would still have you, you, you ,you, you, you, you
If we see the last day and they say we gotta go to war (To War)
I'll be fighting with you, you, you ,you, you
Because it's us against the world
The world, the world
You know it's us against the world
The world, the world, ohh (Repeat)[/i]

Song: Ame ga Furu (The Rain Falls)
Artist: Maaya Sakamoto
Link: Here.
Character(s): Russia/China
Additional Notes?: Russia's POV.
Excerpt:

When the rain stops, where do I return to?
If I want to see you again, how do I call out for you?

For whom and for what,
Do I want to be strong?
Will you help me resolve this contradiction of fighting to protect?

The rain falls; the rainbow awaits; bring me to your sky.
The rain falls; bring me out of this neverending dream.
This is the scenery I've been searching for, my one and only miracle.
Hey, just like this, you are changing me.

Though we will meet again soon, your goodbye...
It's softer than usual, almost sounds a little like eternity.

You laughed and said that you like to doubt more than to believe.
I know you are used to neither kindness nor malice, so here's a little piece of love for you.

Please don't say it, hold it till the end. I want your embrace, not words.
It hurts, it hurts, but keep embracing me until I break.
With just one single kiss, I can be freer.
Don't let this irreplaceable moment run away.

The dew drops break up and disappear behind my steps.
They look like miniature falling stars.

The rain falls; the rainbow awaits; bring me to your sky.
The rain falls; bring me out of this neverending dream.
With just one single kiss, I can be freer.
Don't let this irreplaceable moment run away.
I will overcome reality and imagination to fly with you.
I will surpass limitations and boundaries to fly with you.
This is the scenery I've been searching for, my one and only miracle.
Hey, just like this, you are changing me.[/i]

Artist: Spitz

Character(s): Russia/China
Additional Notes?: This song describes them, and it's hilarious. (The English lyrics doesn't capture it... But listen to it, and it's absolutely hilarious. xD)
Excerpt:

A soft heart goes numb
Comfortable stimulus of the needs
It shines without reason
That's the only sign of love
Some day, I will open my mind to you
In order to become a little stronger
I row a broken boat alone
I can tell even in my dreams about the dazzling mysterious night
It's just a memory
Even it the wind whispers
The treasure cry for joy
Only one in the country that seems to have it all
A soft heart goes numb
Comfortable stimulus of the needs
It shines without reason
That's the only sign of love
That's sufficient as a sign of love[/i]

Excerpt:

Every breath you take and every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take, I'll be watching you
Every single day and every word you say
Every game you play

Oh can't you see you belong to me?
How my poor heart aches with every step you take
Every move you make and every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake, I'll be watching you
Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace

I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby please

Song: I'd Come For You
Artist: Nickelback
Link:
Character(s): Russia/China
Additional Notes?: Because you know they'd come for each other.
Excerpt:

Just One more moment, that's all that's needed.
Like wounded soldiers in need of healing.
Time to be honest, this time I'm bleeding
Please don't dwell on it, cause I didn't mean it

I cant believe I said I'd lay our love on the ground
But it doesn't matter cause I've made it up forgive me now
Everyday I spend away my souls inside out
Gotta be someway that I can make it up to you now, somehow.

By now you'd know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you

I was blindfolded, but now I'm seeing
My mind was closing, now I'm believing
I finally know just what it means to let someone in
To see the side of me that no one does or ever will
So if your ever lost and find yourself all alone
I'd search forever just to bring you home,
Here and now this I vow

By now you'd know that I'd come for you
No one but you, yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to
And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you
You know I'd always come for you

Yes I'd come for you, no one but you,
Yes I'd come for you
But only if you told me to

And I'd fight for you
I'd lie, it's true
Give my life for you
You know I'd always come for you

No matter what gets in my way
As long as there's still life in me
No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you
I'd crawl across this world for you
Do anything you want me to
No matter what, remember you know I'll always come for you
You know I'll always come for you

Additional Notes?: Oh, stfu. xDDDDD (Russia's POV)
Excerpt:

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.

But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
The light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
...kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh,
The more I get of you,
Ooh...................
Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey.

There is so much a man can tell you,
..there....................woa...
So much he can say.
there's so much inside.
You remain,

My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.. yeah.
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?

Song: Never Let You Go
Artist: Dima Bilan
Link:
Character(s): Russia/China
Additional Notes?: TOTALLY RoChu.
Excerpt:

Heavy clouds, no rain
And every move causes pain
Ready kiss, but no love
I feel i'm torn in half
Burning look, but no heat
It's not you really need
Baby now it's happened with us
We are dancing on broken glass
Can't stand no more

Never, never let you go
You are the one i'm searching for
Flesh of my flesh,
bone of my bone
Love's carving it in the stone
Never, never let you go
Return the days we had before
Soul of my soul, blood of my blood
Love's carving it in my heart

Gentle words, no aim
It seems we're playing a game
Easy smile, but no fun
Sweet music for no one
Close embrace, but no more
Cold champagne we forgot to pour
Baby now it's happened with us
We're dancing on broken glass
Can't stand no more

Song: Whatever it Takes
Artist: Lifehouse
Link: Here.
Character(s): Russia/China
Additional Notes?: China's POV, especially about their recent relationship. He longs to bring back the relationship they had before the Sino-Soviet split, and thus he tries his damndest to make Russia trust him again.
Excerpt:"

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

She said "If we're gonna make this work
You gotta let me inside even though it hurts
Don't hide the broken parts that I need to see"
She said "Like it or not it's the way it's gotta be
You gotta love yourself if you can ever love me"

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
And give me a break
I'll keep us together, I know you deserve much better

But remember the time I told you the way that I felt
That I'd be lost without you and never find myself
Let's hold onto each other above everything else
Start over, start over

I'll do whatever it takes
To turn this around
I know what's at stake
I know I've let you down
And if you give me a chance
and believe that I can change
I'll keep us together whatever it takes[/i][/blockquote]
