L-TRAIN | The L-Train - The Rescue (CxDr cover) @L-TRAIN | Uploaded March 2015 | Updated October 2024, 2 days ago.
A couple of weeks ago I played a live set at PonyCon AU, which was a lot of fun and I got to meet many new (and some old) friends, one of whom was the inimitable Cherax Destructor. So here's my rock-esque interpretation of his wonderful tune "The Rescue", based on the fanfic "University Days".

Lyrics:
lying facedown drunk on the sidewalk thinking of her
is it love or all of this booze that's got me confused? i'm not sure
it's late and it's cold
and you just called to say hello
i should be there for you
i could be your rescue
you need each other
go to her, go to her
no time to wonder
go to her, go to her
how long you've yearned for this
an end to all your loneliness
now you've earned this sweet success
after all these years spent alone, i'm finally found
feel my heart in straight-time pound to the beat of this strange new sound
so drunk on you
the way you move, your sunset tunes
nothing's how we'd planned it
(one more step towards me)
we have to take this gambit
(with your shaking body)
you need each other
go to her, go to her
don't stop to wonder
go to her, go to her
every moment's led to this
flustered glance and fumbled kiss
now you deserve this happiness
(take you through the cold and snow
to that place we've never known)
i just need to let you know...
