1. Avalanche - Leonard Cohen
You don't love me quite so fiercely now
When you know that you are not sure

2. Serpents - Sharon van Etten
You enjoy sucking on dreams,
So I will fall asleep with someone other
than you.

3. Roses - The Indelicates
You should raise up what you can't put down...
When you search in the dark you should fear what you seek

4. Wicked Games - Coeur de Pirate
Bring your love, baby, I could bring my shame.

5. Percussion Gun - White Rabbits
Now even rats will jump this ship
Just give me some piece of mind

6. Don't - Ed Sheeran
This is not the way you realized what you wanted

7. I'll Be The Moon - Dierks Bentley (feat. Maren Morris)
I don't wanna be a liar, I don't wanna be a fool
I don't wanna be a secret, but I will if you want me to

8. Shameless - The Weeknd
I don't wanna hurt you, but you live for the pain
I'm not tryna say it, but it's what you became

9. Which Witch - Florence + the Machine
Who's a heretic, child?
Can you make it stick now?

10. Garden - Dua Lipa
Don't know what it's worth 'til you pay the price
When you bite your tongue, does it draw blood?

11. Lovers or Liars - Lauren Aquilina
Now even rats will jump this ship
Just give me some piece of mind

12. The Well and the Lighthouse - Arcade Fire
I weighed the cost and chose my crime...
The lions and the lambs ain't sleeping yet

13. Silver Moonlight - Within Temptation
Open your eyes, it's all right.



And now something completely different. I made a playlist of 13 of my favourite "dark" tracks ages ago and never did anything with it. What is dark? Well, Todd in the Shadows said that "music is not here to satisfy your most positive emotions or your most noble impulses" so here it ranges from merely spooky-sounding to kind of troubling.
