for muse_fanmix: evolution of a killer

[heroslayer]

01 | warning - incubus
she woke in the morning
she knew that her life had passed her by
and she called out a warning
don't ever let life pass you by

GABRIEL GRAY: When I was a kid ... I used to wish some stranger would come and tell me my family wasn't really my family. They weren't bad people, they were just ... insignificant. And I wanted to be different. Special. I wanted to change. A new name, a new life. The watchmaker's son ... became a watchmaker. It is so futile.

02 | the easy way - marbleheroes
i will take the easy way
'cause it's better than to wait
and not knowing if it's real
when it's all that i can feel

GABRIEL GRAY: You're broken ... I can fix it.

03 | war in me - kenna
it's bittersweet for me to know
the fever's taking over
the status of my fear soars
i'm waging a war--a war in me
the war in me is wailing
and i--i still believe

ELLE BISHOP: It's okay. Everything's going to be okay.
GABRIEL GRAY: No, it isn't. I did something unforgivable.
ELLE BISHOP: Everybody does bad things. You think I haven't felt exactly how you're feeling right now? Maybe if you talk about it? Sometimes if you talk about it--
GABRIEL GRAY: I can't! ... a man had something that I wanted, but I took it at a terrible price.

04 | me, i'm not - nine inch nails
well it's happening--never planned on this
you've got something i need--kind of dangerous
and i'm losing control--i'm not used to this
what you want from me--i'm not used to this

SYLAR: The hunger, it's--I can't control it. I don't want to. You made me this way.

05 | dizzy - orgy
now you've made a mess of yourself
you've made a mess of everything
you're a mess--a fucking mess

SYLAR: You knew what I was, and you let it continue. In a way, you helped me. And after I've consumed your power, you'll help me even more.

06 | killer - the hoosiers
don't turn out the lights
kiss yourself goodnight 'cause there's a killer
and he's coming after you
kiss yourself goodnight, tonight
'cause there's a killer and he's coming after you

SYLAR: I wasn't begging for my life--I was offering you yours.

07 | battle of one - 30 seconds to mars
try and stop me
try and save me
i want to fall

SYLAR: You don't understand. I think I'm gonna kill a lot more people--a lot more. I understood it before, the killing. I had a reason. To take what others didn't deserve. It was natural selection.
MOHINDER SURESH: What are you talking about?
SYLAR: An apocalypse, a massacre. Half the city gone in an instant. They mean nothing. They're innocent. There's no gain, so why would I do it? What possible reason could I have for killing so many?

08 | handlebars - the flobots
i can guide a missile by satellite
by satellite--by satellite
and i can hit a target through a telescope
through a telescope--through a telescope
and i can end the planet in a holocaust

SYLAR: Boom.

09 | bitmap - sinch
no--please stay
if all this goes as planned i know
i'll stay complete

SYLAR: It's not working. I don't have it. Your power. What's wrong with me?

10 | do the evolution - pearl jam
admire me, admire my home
admire my song, admire my clothes
'cause we know, appetite for a nightly feast
those ignorant indians got nothing on me

SYLAR: I know you don't understand me, but I want to tell you why I am helping you. It's that delicious power. You see, when I get my ability back, I'm going to kill you. And your sister. And I'm going take it all. And if I don't get my ability back, it's not a total loss--Maya's learning quickly. She's a shiny new toy, and she's all mine.

11 | pet - a perfect circle
don't fret precious, i'm here
step away from the window
go back to sleep
lay your head down, child
i won't let the bogeyman come

SYLAR: Hello, Mohinder.
MOHINDER SURESH: Sylar?
SYLAR: I convinced the babysitter to take the night off.

12 | don't stop - innerpartysystem
the road i walk is paved in gold
to glorify my platinum soul
i am the closest thing to god
so worship me and never stop

SYLAR: I'm back.

13 | indestructible - disturbed
a terror to behold
annihilation will be unavoidable
every broken enemy will know
that their opponent had to be invincible

SYLAR: I got that from your Claire.
NOAH BENNET: You sonovabitch!

14 | map of the problematique - muse
life will flash before my eyes
so scattered and lost
i want to touch the other side
and no one thinks they are to blame
why can't we see
when we bleed, we bleed the same

CLAIRE BENNET: Tell me you're not working with him after what he did to me.
SYLAR: Claire, you hate me--I understand. When I touched your hand, I could feel the pain that I caused you, and I never meant to--
NOAH BENNET: Shut your mouth! You don't get to talk to her. Ever.

15 | rocket science - the pimps
i must admit it'd take some years
for me to walk without this crutch
so on and such--i'd still be fucked
if i am forced to walk alone
and should i crumble at your feet
i'll hold us both accountable

SYLAR: A chance to reinvent ourselves. Free of powers or parents.
ELLE BISHOP: Scary.
SYLAR: Yeah. And unexpected.
ELLE BISHOP: What? Our powers going away or us?

16 | without you i'm nothing - placebo
you're slipping slowly from my reach
you grow me like an evergreen
you've never see the lonely me at all
without you, i'm nothing

SYLAR: Goodbye, Elle.

17 | persona - blue man group
in the evening, i take it off
but there's another one underneath
and i can't seem to find the bottom of the stack
i might just lose my mind and never get it back

SYLAR: You know, one of my eyes stayed blue for over an hour, yesterday.
EMILE DANKO: The past five years, I've lived eight different lives. I had wives and girlfriends. I spoke six different languages. But at the end of the day, I still know who I am.
SYLAR: What's your point?
EMILE DANKO: Whatever you're going through--this identity crisis--you can survive.

18 | across five years - boy sets fire
so many years of hidden dreams
pushed down too far to ever win
locked doors and hidden ghosts
denied myself with every joke
this is not me--this could never be me

ANGELA PETRELLI: Nathan? Have you heard a word I've said?
SYLAR: It's just this clock. It's running a minute and a half fast.

I have most of those songs already (we gotta stop doing that) but I download just for the ones I don't have. ;D

[youngerpetrelli]

Ooooh! I have a few of those already, but I'm snagging the whole thing 'cause it's hot.

Hee! I have 'Me, I'm not' as one for Peter struggling with the hunger (or alternately as a 5yg Sylar/Peter thing because they're going to end up fighting each other (well, mostly fighting) through eternity...)
