I think Taylor Swift pretty much hit a homerun with her OST song for Hunger Games. A collaboration with The Civil Wars, the song is entitled "Safe and Sound", and the lyrics and musical interpretation convey the multi-dimensional aspect of the movie - the dismal status quo, bittersweet sadness, the immense sacrifice Katniss took, the complicated situation between Katniss and Peeta, etc.

Without further ado, listen to Taylor Swift's Hunger Games OST song and soak it in as we all patiently wait for the showing of Hunger Games!



What do you think of the song?

The full lyrics are below:
I remember tears streaming down your face,
When I said I'll never let you go.
When all those shadows almost killed your light,
I remember you said don't leave me here alone,
But all that's dead and gone and past tonight.
Just close your eyes,
The sun is going down.
You'll be all right,
No one can hurt you now.
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound.
Don't you dare look out your window,
Darlin' everything's on fire.
The war outside our door keeps raging on,
Hold on to this lullaby.
Even when the music's gone, gone...
Just close your eyes,
The sun is going down.
You'll be all right,
No one can hurt you now.
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...
Just close your eyes,
You'll be all right.
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...

Some other bands you can look forward to in the OST include indie bands The Decemberists and Arcade Fire. And surprisingly, the lead actress herself (Jennifer Lawrence) has a song as well!
