To save your life.

Warpaint. Set your arms down (Madoka) walk through the fire walk 'till it gets light there is no hiding to save your life lyrics | Please don't fight, she'd said. They'd raised swords and spears, rifles and threats at her and each other. They refused to listen, but maybe they would if she repeated herself, if she raised her voice, if she tried harder and screamed her throat raw. |
Holly Brook. Again and again (Madoka) fallen angel, your terminal high feeding the hunger of your sky take all the poison that I give just to live for the feeling use me again lyrics | "If you ever feel like dying for the sake of the universe..." It wasn't the first time she did, and she got the feeling it wouldn't be her last either. But that was fine. She'd be fine with doing it as many times as it took until she found a way to break the cycle and get it right. |
Paloma Faith. Blood, sweat, and tears (Homura) oh if you lost your way and it drove you crazy you would still have me we work together you see blood sweat and tears blood sweat and tears lyrics | She was still coming off of a battle-high when she ran to hug Homura in an adrenaline rush. Her hair smelled like gunsmoke and one of her braids had come undone and blood ran down the side of her face, but she was beaming through her bruises anyway. "You did an amazing job, Homura-chan!" "R-really?... Thanks." |
Suzanne Vega. In the eye (Homura) if you were to kill me now right here I would still look you in the eye and I would burn myself into your memory as long as you were still alive lyrics | There was so much she wanted to say, so much that she wanted to tell her. Please don't cry, or I'm sorry for being so selfish, or even just thank you. But it hurt too much to breathe through the pain, lift her soul in a shaking hand, smile up at Homura's pistol and look her in the eye. |
Lady Gaga. So happy I could die (Mami) be your best friend yeah I'll love you forever up in the clouds we'll be higher than ever so happy I could die lyrics | Maybe she didn't know exactly how long Mami had been alone. How many years of fighting alone, eating alone, returning alone to an empty apartment, full of memories... But that just meant they had many years of partnership to catch up on. |
Warpaint. Lissie’s heart murmur (Sayaka) on the edge of the water where the ships pass by and the sound of your laughter in the endless sky tips my head back, full of swimming thoughts beneath deep breathing that sinks so far down that sings so far down lyrics | Why wouldn't she just let her help? She would sell her soul for Sayaka if she could bring her smile back, could bring back those sunny carefree days they'd spent together. She wouldn't even hesitate. There was no price too high, no barrier too dangerous for her to enter. Not if it meant she could rescue her friend from herself again. |
Garbage. Metal heart (Kyoko) but now that we know for sure they’re telling lies when they say no one gets hurt and therefore nobody dies you know it’s hard to believe anything that you hear they say the world is round lyrics | "Do you believe in god?" she'd asked hesitantly one day, but Kyoko hadn't been looking at her. She'd just snapped a pretzel stick in her teeth, brittle as bone, staring off at where Kyubey's white shadow perched on a steeple. "No. But I believe in the devil." |
Conjure One (feat. Poe). Make a wish (Kyubey) tomorrow I will have no shame and I will start again make a wish you can close your eyes it's over now baby I have never been afraid like this lyrics | "You could be anything you wanted," he told her. "A savior, a hero, a god. All you have to do is say the word." But there a girl, so familiar and distant, who had told her to just be herself. "What if I want to do that?" she'd asked, but he didn't answer. |
Delerium (feat. Sarah Mclachlan). Silence (Kriemhild Gretchen) heaven holds a sense of wonder and I wanted to believe that I'd get caught up when the rage in me subsides lyrics | It was all so clear to her now. If nobody would accept her help, she would just have to give it to them anyway. Nobody would suffer in her heaven. War won't exist. It was a perfect world at last, and she would keep it that way forever. |
Marina and the Diamonds. Fear and loathing (Walpurgisnacht) don't wanna live in fear and loathing I wanna feel like I am floating instead of constantly exploding in fear and loathing lyrics | She reached her arms out and thought she saw the shadows of so many hands grasping for hers, heard so many voices calling for help. From this close, the laughter of Walpurgisnacht sounded like crying. |
Ellie Goulding. Wish I stayed (Madoka) we found that skipping rope, the trampoline the crafty smoke that made us choke but we didn't give up hope it's just the simple ways of getting paid the carelessness of running away I wish I stayed lyrics | The world was full of suffering and joy and cruelty and beauty and despair and hope. It wasn't perfect, but that's why it was. Saving and protecting it was a full-time job. She only occasionally missed living in it. |
Anna Calvi. Suzanne and I (Homura) Suzanne and I never will we be apart Suzanne and I never will we be apart lyrics | They'd find each other again. She'd make sure of it, whether it was at the edges of dreams or at the very end of the universe. Miracles and magic are real, after all. |
