sabotabbyYou know the game. Winner gets to be an Insufferable Music Snob. The theme is "autumnal and slightly spooky," but it was mostly just my iTunes on random, skipping the non-English and instrumental songs. Oh, and this is possibly one of the more obscure ones I've done. Heh.
*drumroll*

7. “Once there were stars behind his eyes. But now they have dimmed and crystallized.”
8. “One guy wears an eyepatch while the other wears a tie; one will play the liberator, the other, run and hide. I hear the cannons crack a mile down freedom street.” "Isis Veiled," Tear Garden. Guessed bysoberloki.

19. “Whilst the crumbs of night that leap into shadows as windows close and curtains open, hissed as smoke might if God could give it tongues.”
20. “I am a forger or a fake who dabs and bursts each blood-filled egg."
