Over You: A SasuSaku FST

[elementalhero]

And with that, a new FST! I was going to push to finish a different one first, but changed my priorities after chapter 453. D8

I hesitate to call this a SasuSaku FST in the classical sense of the ship. (originally, I had been planning to call it an "anti" SasuSaku, but changed my mind because that sounded too negative and wanky) Rather, this is intended as a reflection of how I think their relationship needs to be portrayed: bittersweet (more bitter than sweet), betrayed, angry, strong, regretful, wistful, with a touch of hope at the end. Thus, I arranged the songs I chose in an order that I hope captures that sort of emotion.

Also, I wanted to show off how good I've gotten at GIMP. *preens*

With all that self-important blather out of the way...

Battle Without Honor or Humanity

[instrumental]


Disconnected (Out of Touch)

You never listen to me
You cannot look me in the eyes
And I have struggled to see
Why it's so easy to push me aside

I no longer believe
That you were ever on my side
How could you know what I need
When I'm the last thing on your mind?


The Ponytail Parades

But your head is elsewhere
And I'm talking enough for both of us
When will you see
It's not so easy for me?

[...]

I never thought that
You could say these words
Is this really happening?


If Your Kisses Can't Hold the Man You Love

Don't cry for him or chase him
Just screw it and replace him
With some good-looking Tom, Dick, or Jack
Cause if your kisses won't hold the man you love
Then your tears won't bring him back

(thanks to redbrunja for this one. :D)


How Does It Feel?

And now you've crossed that line
You can't come back
Tell me, how does it feel, now?
It's too late, too much to forget about
Can't stop now
How does it feel, now?


Gives You Hell

Truth be told, I miss you
And truth be told, I'm lying.

When you see my face, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell


That Lonesome Road

If I had stopped to listen once or twice
If I had closed my mouth and opened my eyes
If I had cooled my head and warmed my heart
I'd not be on this road tonight


Paralyzed

And I'm paralyzed by the same old antics
Back and forth like some walking spastic
How could a fistfight be romantic?
Thinking back now, did you ever feel the same?


Dance With the Devil

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

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


Tell Them That She's Not Scared

Let the sawbones tell them that she's not scared
She's got an army of saints armed with her prayers
Wake the angels, tell them that she's not scared
She won't be taking the next flight out of here


You Could Be Happy

You could be happy
I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go

[...]

You could be happy
I hope you are
You've made me happier than I've been by far


Whatshername

I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face, but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how whatshername has been
