Jack and Ianto Songs

Today's Jack and Ianto song is for thraceadams  especially. :)

"Better Than I Know Myself" by Adam Lambert


Song Title: Better Than I Know Myself
Artist: Adam Lambert
Album: Trespassing
Written by: Lukasz Gottwald, Joshua Coleman, Claude Kelly & Henry Walter
POV: Jack
Thoughts: This song really speaks to the times Jack and Ianto are fighting in my fic – both in Vizzini's Rule and The Sea After a Storm. Jack responds to any disagreement between them by shutting down and shutting Ianto out, but he is always sorry and knows deep down that Ianto is the most important thing to him.



Lyrics Excerpt:
Cold as ice
And more bitter than a December winter night
That's how I treated you
And I know that I
I sometimes tend to lose my temper
And I cross the line
Yeah that's the truth

All along
I tried to pretend it didn't matter
If I was alone
But deep down I know
If you were gone
For even a day I wouldn't know which way to turn
Cause I'm lost without you

I get kind of dark
Let it go too far
I can be obnoxious at times
But try and see my heart
Cause I need you now
So don't let me down
You're the only thing in this world
I would die without

I know it gets hard sometimes
But I could never
Leave your side
No matter what I say
Cause if I wanted to go I would have gone by now,
But I really need you near me to
Keep my mind off the edge
If I wanted to leave I would have left by now
But you're the only one that knows me
Better than I know myself
