The playlist book tag (part II)

Click here to get to part I.

Human by Gabrielle Aplin | Before I fall by Lauren Oliver


And you don't need to pretend that perfection is your friend
'Cause we're all broken

We all end up alone
Show me that you're human, you won't break
Oh, love your flaws and live for your mistakes


Coins in a fountain by Passenger | Uprooted by Naomi Novik



hate is a poison
love is a remedy
singin' out like the sweetest of melodies
hope is a ghost
in the deepest of memories
stronger than tenemy
fear is the enemy


Today by Willamette Stone | If I stay by Gayle Forman


Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long

I'll tear my heart out
Before I get out






Winter sound by Of monsters and men | A dance with dragons by George R.R. Martin



You and I will not be shaken!
By the winter sound
But my voice is suffocating
In the winter sound


Come home by Jon Foreman | Looking for Alaska by John Green



The hope that you have
The dream that we were
Home feels so far away
You were made for more than just pain

Looking for reasons to try
A reason to live or to die


Only teardrops by Emmelie de Forest | The night circus by Erin Morgenstern



How many times can we win and lose?
How many times can we break the rules?
Between us
Only teardrops


Wasting my young years by London grammar | Love letters to the dead by Ava Dellaira


I'm wasting my young years
It doesn't matter
I'm chasing old ideas
It doesn't matter
 


Your soul by Rhodes | A thousand pieces of you by Claudia Gray



Oh you know when you're alone
I am holding on and on and on and on
Oh you know when you're alone
I am holding on and on and on and on
To your soul, your soul, your soul, your soul


This song will save your life by Leila Sales | Begin again by Kill the alarm



How do I face another day when I can't take it?
How do I turn another page when I'm faking?
How do I package up the pain when I can't shake it?
It's over now
How do I begin again?


I'm sorry for posting yet another book tag but I just need some time to get into writing reviews again, so I hope you don't mind too much. Have an amazing day!

The playlist book tag (part I)

For this tag you're supposed to listen to your playlist on shuffle and choose a book for every song, but since I want the songs to actually fit to the books, I picked the songs manually. All of the songs however are in one of my playlists and I do listen to them regularly and like them a lot, so you can also see this as some kind of a music recommendation. All in all, these are just some songs that remind me of books. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this tag!

Deep end by Birdy | All the bright places by Jennifer Niven

I don't want this to break you
but I've got no one else to talk to
I don't know if you mean everything to me
And I wonder, can I give you what you need?



 Home by Gabrielle Aplin | The geographie of you and me by Jennifer E. Smith 

As long as we're together
Does it matter where we go? 




Isaac by Bear's den | The goldfinch by Donna Tartt

Isaac I have never seen you look so afraid
with your head pressed so hard against the stone

You look so alone
 



Daniel in the den by Bastille | A storm of swords by George R.R. Martin

And you thought the lions were bad, well they tried to kill my brothers.
And for every king that died, oh, they would crown another.
And it's harder than you think, telling dreams from one another.




Let her go by Passenger | Just one year by Gayle Forman

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go




Young and beautiful by Lana del Rey | The great gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

The way you'd play for me at your show
And all the ways I got to know

Your pretty face and electric soul
Will you still love me when
I'm no longer young and beautiful?





Eavesdrop by The civil wars | A court of mist and fury by Sarah J. Maas

Let's let the stars watch
Let them stare
Let the wind eavesdrop
I don't care
For all that we've got, don't let go
Just hold me



White blood by Oh wonder | Sapphire blue by Kerstin Gier

I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go
Can't do it alone, can't do it alone
I'm ready to run through the heat of the sun
Can't do it alone, can't do it alone
I'm ready to hope, swing me out of the low

Wide awake in the glow, can't do it alone 


 Brother by Mighty oaks | A knight of the seven kingdoms by George R.R. Martin


And we had laugh through the night
Call the star's
By the fire shining on
Through the night
We will run
To the rising life and on
Through the night
Burn the flames
The world will know our names



I'm really sorry I haven't posted anything in such a long time, but over the past month I've been in Iceland for two weeks and the rest of that time I've been binge watching Arrow and The flash (both of these tv shows are amazing btw) and just didn't really feel like writing anything. However, I'm trying my best to get motivated again and hopefully I'll manage to post more or less regularly again.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this slightly different book tag. Have a nice day!
