Emilie Autumn | Castle Down
(Stephen & Papa Bear: where it begins.)

If I had another place to go
Would you break me, is it that you know
I have no choice but to rebuild again
I'm tied so hard I can't remember when
I last walked free upon these feet of mine
But I'll draw the line
There will come a time
When I am stronger
Your words won't hurt any longer

But would you tear my castle down
Stone by stone
And let the wind run through my windows
‘Til there is nothing left but a battered rose

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Beyonce | Halo
(Jon saving Stephen.)

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light

I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling...
Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
The risk that I'm takin'
I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

Bellfire | Nobody Loves Me Like You Do
(Jon & Stephen: sweet soulbondy romance.)

In the morning, in the evening, anytime at all
I'll be ready, baby when you call

In the darkness, I'll be waiting with nothing but a smile
You got me crazy, I just want what's mine

I don't need another love song
You're the only thing that turns me on

Nobody loves me like you do
Nobody understands, everything I am
Nobody else could ever take your place
You're all that I want
I'm in heaven now

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Styx | Castle Walls
(Enter Olivia, to turn everyone's lives upside-down.)

There in the fog
His song kept calling me
Leading me on
With its haunting melody
Deep in my heart
A voice kept echoing
I knew I'd soon be wandering

Far beyond these castle walls
Where the distant harbor meets the sky
There the battle raged like hell
And every dove had lost its will to fly

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Steve Perry | Friends of Mine
(Olivia & Stephen, after a rocky start, bonding.)

I thought that I could hide away
But the lonely walls kept closing in
I only came back to say
Life ain't nothin' without a friend

We're standing face to face
A different time, a different place
From the move, been together so long
It's for you I sing this song
Friends of mine

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Sixpence None The Richer | Kiss Me (Japanese version)
(Olivia to Kristen: sweet common-language romance.)

Kiss me mugiho no hotori
Nightly kusa no namima
futari hane hiroge
omekashi o shite odorou

Oh, kiss me awai yamiyo ni
Lead me tsuki mo matteru yo
hora goran
kaze ga utatte hoshi ga odori hajimeta
So, kiss me

Kiss me, among the heads of barley
Nightly, between the waves of grass
Together, we will spread our wings
Let's dress up and dance

Oh, kiss me, in the pale evening
Lead me, the moon is waiting too
Look at this
The wind is singing and the fireflies have started to dance
So, kiss me

Kansas | Distant Vision
(Kristen to Olivia: her power malfunction, and their quest.)

Now a tempest rages in my heart,
As this fever furies on
Soon these islands promise rest and hope,
My answers wait beyond their shore
Dream on...

Hungry eyes are standing on the sand,
They beckon us to bring the tide
Sovereign hand must hold me now,
I plead with you
Be my solace and my guide...by my side

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Barcelona | Come Back When You Can
(Jon to Stephen: trying to be supportive as he grows.)

Please take your time
But you've got to know that
I am taking sight
Oh, you look good
with your patient face and wandering eye
Don't hold this war inside...

You left your home
You're so far from
Everything you know
Your big dream is
Crashing down and out your door
Wake up and dream once more

Come back when you can.
Let go, you'll understand.
You've done nothing at all to make me love you less.
So come back when you can

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Culture Club | I'll Tumble 4 Ya
(Tad & Amy & Stephen's confused feelings.)

Did he say maybe, or I'm not sure
He'll be a boy for you, but you need more...

I get a crazy feeling
That chases in my head
It's nothing that you do to me
It's nothing that you said
It's love in stereo
And when I can't let go I say...

I'll tumble 4 ya, I'll tumble 4 ya
I'll tumble 4 ya, I'll tumble 4 you

Human League (Glee cover) | Don't You Want Me
(Jon minus Stephen.)

(Jon)
You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
When I met you
I picked you out, I shook you up, and turned you around
Turned you into someone new
Now five years later on you've got the world at your feet
Success has been so easy for you
But don't forget it's me who put you where you are now
And I can put you back down too

Don't don't you want me?
You know that I can't believe it when I hear that you won't see me
Don't don't you want me?
You know I don't believe you when you say that you don't need me...

(Stephen)
I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar
That much is true
But even then I knew I'd find a much better place
Either with or without you
The five years we have had have been such good times
I still love you
But now I think it's time I lived my life on my own
I guess it's just what I must do

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

The Philosopher Kings | Castles In The Sand
(Stephen & Olivia, both in pieces.)

The tides roll in and waves get closer
And knock us over and we get stronger every time

We build our castles in the sand
Built a perfect house in a perfect town
Dreamt a perfect dream and it all fell down

Oh, just tell me we're happy
Just building castles in the sand

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

The Mountain Goats | No Children
(Jon & Kristen's mutual self-destructive explosion.)

I hope that our few remaining friends
Give up on trying to save us
I hope we come out with a fail-safe plot
To piss off the dumb few that forgave us

I hope the fences we mended
Fall down beneath their own weight
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
I hope it's already too late...

I am drowning
There is no sign of land
You are coming down with me
Hand in unlovable hand

And I hope you die
I hope we both die

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Backstreet Boys | Lose It All
(Olivia, minus Kristen, to the baby.)

I made a promise to myself last night
I'm gonna keep it if it's wrong or right

And if I lose it all
There'd be nothing left to lose
And I would take the fall
Cause knowing you are out there
Breathing is so wonderful
It's a chance, I'd take even if I break...

Would it matter anyway
Don't change a thing
You're perfect as you are
Time has a way
Time is all I've got

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

John Barrowman | I Know Him So Well
(Jon's realization.)

No one in your life is with you constantly
No one is completely on your side
And though I move my world to be with him
Still the gap between us is too wide...

Wasn't it good, wasn't he fine
Isn't it madness he can't be mine
Didn't I know how it would go
If I knew from the start
Why, why am I falling apart?...

But in the end, he needs a little bit more than before
More security, he needs his fantasy and freedom
I know him so well
It took time to understand him
I know him so well

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Alexz Johnson | I Will Be The Flame
(Olivia to Kristen: reconciling, with conditions.)

Said you'd love me better
Swept me off my feat
It's time that you deliver
'Cause there's line-up down the street

You're all talk no action
Maybe that’s not right
I need a rock around my finger
Just wanna rock with you all night

I won't say I'm sorry
'Cause I wanted something more...
You supply the gasoline
And I will be the flame

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

David Cook | Come Back To Me
(Jon to Stephen: letting go.)

You say you got to go and find yourself
You say that you're becoming someone else
Don't recognize the face in the mirror lookin' back at you
You say you're leaving as you look away
I know there's really nothin' left to say
Just know I'm here whenever you need me, I will wait for you...

I can’t fix you, I can’t save you
It’s something you'll have to do

So I’ll let you go, I’ll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you, come back to me

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

The Carpenters | We've Only Just Begun
(Stephen, sailing off with Tad & Amy.)

Before the rising sun we fly
So many roads to choose
We start out walking and learn to run...
Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watching the signs along the way...

And when the evening comes we smile
So much of life ahead
We'll find a place where there's room to grow

♢ ♘ ♢ ☯ ♢ ♘ ♢

Anastasia | At The Beginning
(Jon & Stephen & Olivia & Kristen...& the baby.)

Life is a road and I want to keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is a road now and forever
Wonderful journey

I'll be there when the world stops turning
I'll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you

We were strangers on a crazy adventure
Never dreaming how our dreams would come true
Now here we stand unafraid of the future
At the beginning with you
