▶ TRACK 01. RUTHLESS — THE MARIAS
but darling the truth is... / in darkness i’m ruthless / i wanna scream your name / again &. again
▶ TRACK 02. VOODOO — FRANK OCEAN
she’s got the whole wide world in her juicy fruit / he’s got the whole wide world in his pants / he wrapped the whole wide world in a wedding band / then put the whole wide world in her hands / she’s got the whole wide world in her hands
▶ TRACK 03. DRIP — TRIATHALON &. THE MARIAS
and if you want some peace of mind / you’ll find it in a matter of time to go / but if you like the way she lies / tell me does it matter what’s on her mind?
▶ TRACK 04. CARIÑO — THE MARIAS
quiero tanto devorarte / esta vez besarte / si es que soy capaz / cariño, eres un amor / cariño, pintas en color / something about you, babe
( i want to devour you so much / this time i’ll kiss you / if i am able / darling, you are love / darling, you paint in color )
▶ TRACK 05. ALL IS FULL OF LOVE — BJORK
you’ll be given love / you’ll be taken care of / you’ll be given love / you have to trust it
▶ TRACK O6. HEADLOCK — IMOGEN HEAP
we're a different pair, just something out of step / throw a stranger an unexpected smile / with big intention, still posted at your station / always on about the day it should have flown
you say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock / i don't believe any of it / you say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock / you know you’re better than this
▶TRACK 07. LET GO — FROU FROU
excuse me, too busy / you're writing your tragedy / these mishaps you bubble wrap / when you've no idea what you're like
so let go, so let go, jump in / oh, well, whatcha waiting for? / it's alright / 'cause there's beauty in the breakdown
▶ TRACK 08. SLEEPING LESSONS — THE SHINS
and glow, glow / melt &. flow / eviscerate your fragile frame / &. spill it out in the ragged floor / a thousand different versions of yourself
▶ TRACK 09. HOLD IT TOGETHER — THE MARIAS
hold it together / god, i wish i knew better / than to be alone like this / maybe I'm over it / i'm a little like you / don't pick up, i slide through / &. never be alone like this / i'm so over it
i got a feeling / that I wanna slow down with you / nobody else will ever do / i got a feeling / that i wanna be there with you / nobody else will ever do
▶ TRACK 10. PAGAN POETRY — BJORK
on the surface simplicity / but the darkest pit in me / is pagan poetry
i love him, i love him / i love him, i love him / this time, i’m gonna keep it to myself / this time, i’m gonna keep me all to myself / but he makes me want to hand myself over
