1. coldplay - "42"  
those who are dead are not dead, they’re just living in my head. and since i fell for that spell, i am living there as well.

2. sarah mclachlan - "angel"  
from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear. you are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie. you're in the arms of the angel, may you find some comfort there.

3. r.e.m. - "try not to breathe"  
i will try not to burden you; i can hold these inside. i will hold my breath until all these shivers subside, just look in my eyes.

4. death cab for cutie - "what sarah said"  
it stung like a violent wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our minds, but i knew that you were a truth i would rather lose than to have never lain beside at all.

5. bob dylan - "knockin' on heaven's door"  
mama, take this badge off of me, i can't use it anymore. it's gettin' dark, too dark for me to see.

6. fleetwood mac - "goodbye baby"  
and i who went to sleep in tears, woke up in tears for all of the years. and i who never, never said goodbye as i slipped away.

7. the beatles - "hey jude"  
and anytime you feel the pain, hey jude, refrain, dont carry the world upon your shoulders. for well you know that its a fool who plays it cool by making his world a little colder.

8. modest mouse - "ocean breathes salty"  
your body may be gone, i’m going to carry you in my head, in my heart, in my soul.

Thank you. I also was in need of a mourning mix as I've been going through some crap lately... And not every dead thing is a person...

But lo and behold there it is. Downloading with a whole lot of thanks and the hope you keep making mixes as you are awesome at it. I think this is like the third or so mix I've downloaded from you and they're all awesome.


Also, making mixes is how I cope too. So yaaay to find others who cope the same way.

It definitely helps. *Have had it on repeat. If you want, when I get the one I'm working on finished I'll poke you and give you a copy because you are amazing.

Here you go. It's on sendspace. Click to download. Some files are WMA and one is an IT. Plus you've got two bonuses. Enjoy. This mirrors my feelings of the last couple months (http://www.sendspace.com/file/6tluun)

And yes that's all one big hyperlink for a reason LOL
