Did anyone ask for 3 hours' worth of fanmix accompaniment to a fic I wrote? No. And yet I am here to deliver it.











the fic in question? panting like a dog at the edge of your bed, of course.

PANTING LIKE A DOG... (side A)

I Have Walked This Body · Susanna & Jenny Hval

A basilica of stone
Waiting for skin
I stood on the rims
And carved the tree rings in

Black Snow · Oneohtrix Point Never

What's at the bottom of a black hole?

Crawling on Bruised Knees · Pharmakon

Dig my heels into the earth
Sear my feet on the burning ground
Shun my bestial body
I am bound to a vision I have not yet created

MAN IS LIKE A SPRING FLOWER · Lingua Ignota

The heart of man is an orchid
The heart of man is the open gulch itself
The heart of man is the Seventh Gate of Hell
The heart of man is the crushed horse's tail

Anvil · Lorn

Urchin · Labyrinth Ear

The acorn on a string was for you
It was for you and only you
Relinquished from my hand and I left it
And it waited for you

I Came to Your Party Dressed As A Shadow · Piano Magic

This is symptomatic of you and me:
I have jars full of your breath
I have shelves of your words
But you have nothing of me
But a space where I would be

High Tower · DM Stith

I led you out by the hand again
It's easier now than it ever was
You had me pinned by your innocence
I'm еasier now than I ever was

Chain · Anna Calvi

I’ll be the boy you be the girl I’ll be the girl you be the boy I’ll be the girl
And in the golden light the sun began to set
On her red lips and her words
Chain me, chain me

Rock 'n' Roll Star · Sorry

I stayed up all night with a rock 'n' roll star
He said "You've got to dress for the part you want, not who you are"

Lick Your Wounds · Aisha Devi

I'll lick my wounds and heal at night

Spun · Chelsea Wolfe

You leave me restless, you leave me numb
You leave me coiled, you leave me spun

Blood Flight · Jenny Hval

Such is the speech of the body
The ribs painted their fingernails
Black, of course
And on the edges of the cunt
Grew little teeth

Shiver · Fever Ray

Some girls will make you blush
Some girls will make you shiver

American Daughter · Beach House

And to know her
Is to love her

Easy to Be Around · Diane Cluck

The door remains the same width
You're so easy to be around
Both forgetting what our name is
In a dance as the sun goes down

What's Not Mine · Cate Le Bon

I'm not crying for myself
But I'm riding close

Violence's Detour · Drew McDowall & Hiro Kone

---

...AT THE EDGE OF YOUR BED (side B)

Cavity · Hundred Waters

Nothing to fill in, nothing to free
Nothing here love but a cavity

Edge · Lucrecia Dalt

And my breath would fill your lungs until it felt like your breath
And when you spoke you’d have a voice that was not quite you
And not quite me but something rubbed through both of us

Give Me That Sound · Jenny Hval

From the new mouth, a new face appears
And then a new, even smaller mouth
Opens inside another again

Let Me In · Marika Hackman

When the embers die
Then I'll take your hand and lead you there
To a cruel, hard heartland

Promise Ring · Midwife

Love will break your heart forever

Undertow · Warpaint

Why you wanna blame me for your troubles?
You better learn your lesson yourself

Black Balloon · The Kills

I've stood in a thousand street scenes
Just around the corner from you
On the edge of a dream that you have
Has anybody ever told you, it's not coming true?

White Glass · Loma

You unfold like a scorpion shining
In a night so dark
And curled to strike

Ice Age · How To Destroy Angels

Sometimes I open up the walls and disappear
Sometimes the crashing of the waves is all I hear

Stuck · Martha Skye Murphy

I got it wrong all too much

Jane Cum · Japanese Breakfast

Soulless animal, keep feeding on my meat
All my tiny bones between your teeth
Jane Cum, you swallow me whole

Reason · Midwife

Wasted in the backseat
All I want is you alone […]
I know your name
A season that don’t go away

Inky Sea · Laura Groves

Dropped into the wakeless water
Endless journey to the bottom
All those things that you've forgotten

Sick · Chelsea Wolfe

Your pure heart, your white light
And I should be put to death for ever being cruel to you [...]
Come closer now and step right into
The wide mouth, the sharp teeth of the one you love

Lightning Comes Up From the Ground · Julie Byrne

That look is the most vivid image I have of you
The voices in my blood alive with longing
I tell you now what for so long I did not say:
That if I have no right to want you
I want you anyway

Swimmer · Helena Deland

If I could make this last
Take more of this moment
Trade in some of my past
You swim
You in it all, and letting it all in

Back To the Water · The Body & Dis Fig

I'll never forget you
Please don't die

In the Beginning · Weyes Blood

For years, like an ox, I pushed
And for years, like a ship, I sank [...]
I don't want you to leave
It's so bittersweet
That this is the time you met me

Moonless · Julie Byrne

That night at the old hotel
I'd been learning you by heart [...]
What does it matter, the story?
If your absence remains
