crown. 

    "dizzy headaches and something on my head. wanna run away, wanna disappear far away."

     re: noah’s keen ability (read: bad habit) to always find the bad in every situation and wants to avoid any and all conflict.

let it loose   ft. yifei.

    "who's that woman on your arm? all dressed up to do you harm, and i'm hip to what she'll do give her just about a month or two."

     re: he knows that he and yifei don’t make sense in the grand scheme of things, and they can both do a lot of damage to the other . . . but damn, no one ever told him bad decisions would be this much fun.

trauma.

    “the wounds come back to life, i try to avoid them but get hurt every time. my heart gets hurt, yeah i know, it can’t just be me."

     re: the past he tries to escape, but never can. between false memories of his father flooding his mind, to the distinct possibility that he’s wasting away his life, he can’t escape.

tomorrow, today.

    "again today, there are questions i don’t know. i’m trying to answer but i’m not confident. is it this way or that way? i’m afraid of my decision."

     re: his continual journey to find the answers to all of life’s questions. it’s why he’s so passionate about journalism, because he knows that someone else has to be asking the same questions he is.

moon river   ft. bora. 

    "two drifters off to see the world, there's such a crazy world to see. we're all chasin' after all the same, chasing after our rainbow's end."

     re: he knows that bora is basically the best thing to ever happen to him. he’s so lucky to be able to call her his best friend and, despite the fact that they are the unlikeliest of friends, noah knows that’s how it was always meant to be.

georgia.   

    "i never should have told you. i never should have let you see inside. don't want it troubling in your mind; won't you let it be?"

     re: he really needs to kick that habit of speaking before he thinks, because he cannot keep secrets for too long and it’s going to kill him someday.

burnin' up.   

    "walk in the room, all i can see is you staring me down. i know you feel it too."

     re: it’s the karaoke song of the karaoke songs. it slaps and noah knows big rob’s rap by heart.

little star.   

    "twinkle, twinkle little star, how i wonder where you are. wish i may, wish i might, make this wish come true tonight."

     re: it might be silly to keep holding onto his dreams, but someone has to, right? he wants to do right by those he loves and he wants the entire town to know that both the mystery inc. kids and the hex girls are filled with good people.

i wish it would rain.   

    "and no one will ever know that i'm crying. crying when i go outside. to the world outside my tears, i refuse to explain."

     re: he’s just got a lot of emotions and he likes to put this song on when he’s in his feelings about anything and everything.

take it to the limit.  

    "it's so hard to change. can't seem to settle down, but the dreams i've seen lately keep on turning out and burning out and turning out the same."

     re: he’s a creature of habit ( although i feel like i’ve said something to that effect about 10 times now ) 

it's not living ( if it's not with you. )   

    "all i do is sit and drink without you. if i choose, then i lose. distract my brain from the terrible news, it's not living if it's not with you."

i. hex girl moon sisters

i’m a hex girl, and i’m gonna put a spell on you! ft. hex girls : their debut song; the one they wrote in between lessons and after school, the one that jump started them into music, before the rumours and notoriety and fame.

ii. sit next to me foster the people

just come over here and sit next to me / and i'll take you high, high ft. fei : probably what was playing while they were high and figuring things out, one thing leading to another, and anytime she calls, she knows he’ll come over.

iii. guy.exe superfruit

wish I could synthesize / a picture perfect guy ft. noah : one of her favourite karaoke songs with noah, singing it out at the top of their lungs on road trips and while doing house chores! best friend, perfect guy, that’s the same thing! ( right? )

iv. carried away h.e.r

i never saw it coming / you wanna take me away / so please / don't let it be for nothing before we get carried away, yeah ft. fei : she started this and now she’s getting carried away, doesn’t know why or how this is spiraling out of control but neither of them have a handle on what’s going on or what the other person is feeling, and she’s starting to have trouble seeing what’s real and what’s pretend.

v. no more suckers marina

no more suckers in my life / all the drama gets them high / i'm just trying to draw the line ft. yifei : the both of them, trying to deal with fame and the tabloids and the rumours, but who needs all that when they’ve got each other?

vi. goodbye my friends fixh

i. porcelain skott

give it a thought, it takes a lot / to trust that someone else will catch my fall she feels like she’s constantly searching and reaching out for someone and finding no one, letting herself fall and trying to trust that she won’t break like porcelain.

ii. number one tove styrke

everybody loves a number one! it’s what she wants, to be the final one, number one, and she’s chased her dreams this far, so surely... she’ll be number one soon?

iii. liability lorde

you're a little much for me / you're a liability / you're a little much for me the one line she’s heard a little too much, because she’s always a little too much, too insecure and trying too hard and sometimes too much is not enough.

iv. i’ll still have me cyn

i broke my back 'cause / i thought you would too / i'd run in circles / i thought you would too every relationship she’s been in, every friendship, she’s overexerted herself into exhaustion, trying to hold everything together all by herself because the other person might not try and she doesn’t have the strength to let that happen. but now she’s learning, to have herself and be content with that.

v. to noise making (sing) hozier

you put your emptiness to melody / your awful heart to song / you don’t have to sing it nice, but honey sing it strong / at best, you find a little remedy, at worst the world will sing along the reason she started making music: she loved it, and it felt freeing. this is her singing in the shower, around the house, on long drives, to herself, the small reprieves she takes to remind herself of the little blessings she has.

vi. daydreamer aurora
