Kerroin aiemmin, että idea tuli unesta jonka näin. Sen kyseisen unennäön jälkeen minä harhailin aamulla pitkin taloa ennen kouluunlähtöä ja kuuntelin samalla mp3:sta Placebon versiota Kate Bushin kappaleesta Running up that hill (kyllä, minulla on tapana vaeltaa paikasta toiseen kun kuuntelen musiikkia ja ideoin). Sen laulun tunnelmasta sain alkusysäyksen, ajatuksen tyyliin hei tästähän voisi saada jotain aikaan.
Lopullinen päätös kirjoittamisesta syntyi kun kuulin ehkä kuukausi pari myöhemmin Evanescensen kappaleen Like you, jonka Amy Lee on kirjoittanut nuorena kuolleelle siskolleen (laulun loppupuolellakin käy ilmi, kelle se on osoitettu: ”I long to be like you, sis.”) Like you:n lyriikoista ja teemasta sain täydellisen inspiraation päähenkilön tuntemalle syyllisyydelle ja rakkaudelle siskoaan kohtaan. Sellaista siis.
Vielä soundtrackin yleisilmettä selittääkseni, Merimielen tärkeimpiä perusajatuksia ovat tosiaan päähenkilön halu suojella vampyyriksi muuttunutta siskoaan pahalta maailmalta, vaikka tämä itse tahtoo luovuttaa vähän kerrallaan eikä edes pidä itseään enää inhimillisenä. Niin ja vielä, Lahja on tosiaan tavissisko ja Umi se vampyyri, kun tuossa noita näkökulmia luettelen.
Placebo – Running Up That Hill (Umi & Lahja)
It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
Placebo – Sleeping With Ghosts (Umi & Lahja)
'Cause soulmates never die
Evanescence – Hello (enimmäkseen Lahja)
Playground schoolbell rings, again
Rainclouds come to play, again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me
I'm not broken
Hello, I'm the lie, living for you so you can hide...
Evanescence Like You - (Lahja)
Stay low
Soft, dark, and dreamless
Far beneath my nightmares and loneliness
I hate me
For breathing without you
I don't want to feel anymore for you
You're not alone
No matter what they told you you're not alone
I'll be right beside you forevermore
Evanescence –Where Will You Go (Lahjan ajatuksia Umista)
But where will you goWith no one left to save you from yourself
You can't escape
Evanescence Breathe No More - (Umi)
I've been looking in the mirror for so long.
That I've come to believe my soul's on the other side.
All the little pieces falling, shatter.
Shards of me,
Too sharp to put back together.
Too small to matter
Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirits well.
Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child.
Lie to me,
Convince me that I've been sick forever.
And all of this,
Will make sense when I get better.
But I know the difference,
Between myself and my reflection.
Red –Nothing and everything (Umi)
Enemy, familiar friend
My beginning and my end
Broken truth, whispering lies
And it hurts again
What I fear and what I try,
The words I say and what I hide
All the pain, I want it to end
But I want it again
And it finds me
The fight inside is coursing through my veins
Red –Shadows (Umi)
There's a hate inside of me
Like some kind of master
I try to save you but I can't find the answer
I'm holding on to you
I'll never let go
I need you with me as I enter the shadows
Plumb – Maniac (Lahja)
She wakes up
And lays down
She can hardly speak
And so she screams
I'm standing in the pour in rain
You say it wont happen again
Your manic, manic
Flyleaf –Break your knees (Umi)
Breaks your knees and leaves you so
The sun can burn you up and wear you out
It's an angry summer
There's no room to smile
When the face you make
Just before you cry
Looks so young like a child
Flyleaf – Arise (Umi & Lahja)
We'll sleep dreamlessly this time
When we awake we'll know that everything's alright
And sing to me about the end of the world
End of these hammers and needles for you
Arise and be,
all the you dreamed, all that you dreamed
Flyleaf –Set Apart This Dream (Umi & Lahja)
Close your eyes little girl
You're a princess now
You own this world
Twirling in your twirly dress
You're the loveliest far above the rest
Set apart this dream
For me
Flyleaf –Have we lost (Umi & Lahja)
Please don't tell me anymore
There's a weight in your eyes
And it's weigh on my heart
Where have the children gone?
We were innocent once
But that was so long ago
