"Deep in the Meadow"
"Deep in the Meadow" (also known equally "Rue's Lullaby") is a song sung by Katniss to Rue equally the latter was nearing death (Curiosity had speared her in the tum). Because of her love of music, Rue's last request was to hear Katniss sing. At offset, Katniss did non know what to sing, just then remembered a lullaby she would sing to her sister Prim when she was ill. The words are easy, soothing, and calming.
Katniss also found herself musing on the words of this song many years later on as she watched her ain children play in the Meadow in District 12.
Lucy Gray Baird sings this song to Maude Ivory, having sung it to her in the by when she had croup. Coriolanus Snow likewise listens to the vocal and finds it soothing, until mockingjays pick upward the melody, as he finds them disturbing.[1]
Lyrics
Deep in the meadow, under the willow
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow
Lay downwardly your head, and close your sleepy optics
And when again they open, the sun will rise.
Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies baby-sit you from every damage
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them truthful
Here is the place where I honey you.
Deep in the meadow, hidden far abroad
A cloak of leaves, A moonbeam ray,
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away.
Here information technology'due south safe, here information technology's warm
Hither the daisies guard y'all from every harm
Here your dreams are sweetness and tomorrow brings them truthful
Here is the place where I love y'all.

"The Hanging Tree"
"The Hanging Tree" was a song taught to Katniss past her father when she was young. Mrs. Everdeen heard Katniss singing the vocal i solar day and saw her and Prim making necklaces of rope, similar those mentioned in the song'southward lyrics. Although the sisters did non understand the true meaning of the song, Mrs. Everdeen became fearful and yelled at Mr. Everdeen, which caused Katniss to run into the Meadow and cry under a tree. After finding her, Mr. Everdeen told Katniss to forget the vocal, but Katniss ended up remembering every discussion of information technology. After Mr. Everdeen's expiry, the song played itself over and over in Katniss' caput.
Katniss eventually understood that the person singing the song was a expressionless homo calling for his lover to come up join him in death. The thought at start seemed disturbing to her, but when she concluded upward spontaneously performing the song for a District thirteen propaganda film, she remembered how later on her rescue from the Arena of the 75th Hunger Games, she was about to kill Peeta with a syringe to proceed him safe from the Capitol; a life of torture is a far worse fate than decease.
Katniss besides sang this song to Pollux after she plays with the mockingjays, which brought him to tears. This song is mentioned many times throughout Mockingjay. An official version has been recorded for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.
In The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Office 1, Plutarch Heavensbee claims he changed the words "necklace of rope" to "necklace of hope" in the recording for the Capitol.
"The Hanging Tree" has a brief backstory in The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes at the execution of Arlo Chance. The song also one of many, composed by Lucy Grayness Baird. Arlo Gamble is said by the Peacekeepers to have been responsible for an explosion in the mines that killed three people, hence the reference in the vocal to "a man they say murdered three." Lucy Greyness, however, likewise afterward uses the vocal to refer to Coriolanus Snowfall, who indirectly reveals to her that he himself killed 3 people - Bobbin, Mayfair Lipp, and Sejanus Plinth, the last being not direct just through his treachery. The vocal was banned by Commander Hoff of the Peacekeepers, who considered information technology rebellious.[2] However, presently after, Hoff was replaced past a new commander, who banned all musical performances at the Hob entirely, because music caused problem.[three]
Lyrics
Are you, are yous, coming to the tree?
Where they strung upwardly a homo, they say murdered three.
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it exist,
If we met, upward at midnight, in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you, coming to the tree?
Where the dead homo called out, for his love to flee.
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be,
If nosotros met, upward at midnight, in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you, coming to the tree?
Where I told yous to run, then we'd both be free.
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would information technology exist,
If we met, up at midnight, in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you, coming to the tree?
Wear a necklace of rope, side by side with me.
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would information technology exist,
If we met, upward at midnight, in the hanging tree.

"Zip Yous Can Have From Me"
This song was performed by Lucy Gray Baird at her reaping. Information technology was the starting time vocal that Coriolanus Snow ever heard her perform. As it was broadcast nationally throughout Panem and to the Capitol, information technology fabricated her an instant sensation, catching the attending of those who would be sponsors even before the sponsorship program was conceived of.

Lyrics
Yous can't have my past.
You can't take my history.
You could accept my pa,
But his name's a mystery.
Nothing you can take from me was ever worth keeping.
You can't take my charm.
Yous tin't take my humour.
You can't have my wealth,
'Cause information technology's just a rumor.
Nada you tin take from me was always worth keeping.
Thinking you're so fine.
Thinking you tin can have mine.
Thinking you're in control.
Thinking you'll alter me, perchance rearrange me.
Think over again, if that'due south your goal,
'Cause...
You lot can't take my sass.
Yous can't take my talking.
Y'all tin kiss my ass
So go along on walking.
Nothing you can accept from me was ever worth keeping.
No, sir,
Nil y'all can take me from me is worth clay.
Accept it, 'cause I'd give it gratuitous. It won't hurt.
Zero you can take from me was ever worth keeping!
"The Ballad of Lucy Gray Baird"

The title of the vocal is provided in these acknowledgements.[6]
Lyrics
When I was a babe I fell down in the holler.
When I was a daughter I fell into your arms.
We fell on hard times and we lost our bright colour.
You went to the dogs and I lived by my charms.
I danced for my dinner, spread kisses similar beloved.
You stole and you gambled and I said you should.
We sang for our suppers, we drank upward our coin.
Then one day yous left, saying I was no good.
Well, all right, I'grand bad, but then, you're no prize either.
All right, I'thousand bad, but then, that'southward nil new.
You say you won't love me, I won't love y'all neither.
But let me remind yous who I am to you.
'Cause I am the ane who looks out when yous're leaping.
I am the 1 who knows how yous were brave.
And I am the i who heard what you said sleeping.
I'll accept that and more when I go to my grave.
It'southward sooner than after that I'm vi feet under.
It'south sooner than later that you'll be lone.
So who volition you turn to tomorrow, I wonder?
For when the bell rings, lover, you lot're on your own.
And I am the one who you lot let run into you weeping.
I know the soul that you struggle to save.
Too bad I'1000 the bet that you lost in the reaping.
Now what will you lot do when I go to my grave?
"The Erstwhile Therebefore"
This was another song performed past Lucy Grayness Baird. She sang it subsequently Dr. Volumnia Gaul loosed snake muttations into the Capitol Arena. The snakes were completely mesmerized by it and later completing information technology, Lucy Grey began a soft humming to continue them docile.[7]
Lyrics
(La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la. . .)
You're headed for sky,
The sweet erstwhile hereafter,
And I've got one foot in the door.
Simply before I tin fly upwards,
I've loose ends to tie up,
Right here in The quondam therebefore.
I'll exist forth
When I've finished my song,
When I've shut downwards the band,
When I've played out my mitt,
When I've paid all my debts,
When I have no regrets,
Right here in
The old therebefore,
When null
Is left anymore.
I'll grab you lot upward
When I've emptied my loving cup,
When I've worn out my friends,
When I've burned out both ends,
When I've cried all my tears,
When I've conquered my fears,
Right here in
The old therebefore,
When nothing
Is left anymore.
I'll bring the news
When I've danced off my shoes,
When my body'southward closed down,
When my boat'due south run aground,
When I've tallied the score,
And I'k flat on the floor,
Correct here in
The old therebefore,
When zilch
Is left anymore
When I'm pure like a pigeon,
When I've learned how to love,
Right hither in
The quondam therebefore,
When nothing
Is left anymore.
"That Thing I Love With"
This song is performed by Lucy Gray Baird and the Covey at the Hob. It is the first vocal that she performs upon her return to District 12 afterward winning the 10th Hunger Games and the first song that Coriolanus Snow hears her perform in District 12. It has a bright and upbeat musical accompaniment.
Lyrics
My heart's stupid and that's not maybe.
Can't blame Cupid, he's but a baby.
Shoot it, kick it, execute it,
However comes a-crawling to you-hoo.
Middle's gone funny, it won't hear reason.
Y'all're similar honey, you bring the bees in.
Sting information technology, wing it, give it a fling, it
Notwithstanding comes a-itch to yous.
I wish it mattered that
You chose to smash it up.
How come y'all shattered that
Matter I love with?
Did you lot feel flattered that
You lot could just trash information technology upwards?
That's why you dilapidated that
Thing I love with.
Trapped my ticker but haven't freed it.
People snicker at how you treat it.
Snare it, tear it, strip information technology bare, it
However comes a-crawling to you-hoo.
Heart's been jumping but like a rabbit.
Blood keeps pumping but that's but habit.
Drain it, pain information technology, I'k insane, information technology
Withal comes a-crawling to you.
Burn it, spurn it, don't return information technology,
Break it, bake it, overtake it,
Wreck it, deck it, what the heck, it
Nevertheless comes a-itch to you.
"Lucy Gray"
This was the song from which Lucy Gray Baird got her name. Maude Ivory performed it for Snowfall during a day trip to the lake in the wilderness, a couple of hours from Commune 12. The song was nearly a girl who was sent out into a snowstorm and apparently ended upwardly becoming a ghost daughter. Snow disliked the song, as he both did non understand it entirely and thought it ridiculous.[8]
"Lucy Gray" is really originally a poem written past William Wordsworth in 1799. The poem, due to its age, is in the public domain. The lyrics featured in The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes are slightly tweaked by author Suzanne Collins to fit the Covey.[half-dozen]
Lyrics
Oft I had heard of Lucy Grayness:
And, when I crossed the wild,
I chanced to see at break of day
The solitary child.
No mate, no comrade Lucy knew;
She dwelt where none bide
mdash;The sweetest thing that ever grew
Upon the mountainside!
Y'all yet may spy the fawn at play
The hare among the greenish;
But the sweet face up of Lucy Gray
Volition never more exist seen.
"To-night volition exist a stormy night—
Y'all to the town must become;
And take a lantern, Child, to light
Your mother through the snow."
"That, Begetter! Volition I gladly practise:
'Tis scarcely afternoon —
The village clock has only struck 2,
And yonder is the moon!"
At this the Father turned his hook,
To kindling for the twenty-four hours'
He plied his piece of work; — and Lucy took
The lantern on her way.
As carefree as a mountain doe:
A fresh, new path she broke
Her feet dispersed the powdery snowfall,
That rose upwards but like fume.
The storm came on earlier its time"
She wandered up and down;
And many a loma did Lucy climb:
But never reached the town.
The wretched parents all that dark
Went shouting far and wide;
Simply at that place was neither audio nor sight
To serve them equally a guide.
At daybreak on a hill they stood
That disregarded the scene;
And thence they saw the bridge of forest,
That spanned a deep ravine.
They wept &mdash and, turning homeward, cried,
"In Sky we all shall meet!";
— When in the snow the mother spied
The print of Lucy's feet.
And then downwards from the steep hill'due south edge
They tracked the footmarks small;
And through the broken hawthorn hedge,
And by the long stone-wall;
And so an open field they crossed:
The marks were even so the same;
They tracked them on, not ever lost;
And to the bridge they came.
They followed from the snowy bank
Those footmarks, one past one,
Into the centre of the plank;
And further in that location were none!
— Yet some maintain that to this day
She is a living child;
That yous may see sweet Lucy Gray
Upon the lonesome wild.
O'er rough and smooth she trips along,
And never looks backside;
And sings a solitary song
That whistles in the air current.
"I'll Sell You For a Song"
Lucy Grey Baird and the Covey perform this song, the vocal itself sung by Lucy Grey Baird. It is described every bit a downbeat number with a "mournful" musical accompaniment. Coriolanus Snowfall disliked information technology, equally he idea that information technology might exist inspired by Lucy'south spurned lover, Billy Taupe.
Lyrics
You come abode late,
Fall on your cot.
You smell like something that money bought.
We don't accept cash, or so you say.
And then where did y'all get it and how'd you pay?
The sun don't ascent and set for you lot.
You recollect so, but you're wrong.
You tell me lies, I tin't stay true—
I'll sell y'all for a song.
You go upwards late,
Won't say a word.
You been with her, that'due south what I've heard.
I don't ain you, so I've been told..
But what do I do when the nights get common cold?
The moon don't wax and wane for yous.
Y'all think so, but you're wrong.
You cause me hurting, you make me blue—
I'll sell y'all for a song.
You're hither, yous're not.
It's more me,
It's more than you, it's more like we.
They're young and soft, they worry so.
You coming or going, they demand to know.
The stars don't smooth and shoot for you.
You think and then, but yous're wrong..
You mess with mine, I'll hurt you, also—
I'll sell y'all for a song.
"Pure as the Driven Snow"
This was another vocal by Lucy Gray Baird. Coriolanus Snowfall believed she had written it for him.
Lyrics
Everyone'south born as clean as a whistle—
As fresh as a daisy
And not a bit crazy.
Staying that mode'south a difficult row for hoeing—
As rough as a briar,
Like walking through fire.
This globe, it'southward dark,
And this world, it'southward scary.
I've taken some hits, then
No wonder I'chiliad wary.
Information technology's why I
Demand you lot—
Yous're pure as the driven snow.
Everyone wants to be a hero—
The cake with the foam, or
The doer non dreamer.
Doing's hard work, It takes some to change things—
Like goat's milk to butter,
Like water ice blocks to water.
This globe goes blind
When children are dying.
I turn to dust, but
Y'all never stop trying.
Information technology's why I
Love you—
You're pure as the driven snowfall.
Cold and clean,
Swirling over my pare,
You cloak me.
You soak correct in,
Down to my center.
Everyone thinks they know all virtually me.
They slap me with labels.
They spit out their fables.
Yous came along, yous knew it was lying.
You saw the ideal me,
And yes, that's the existent me.
This world, it'due south barbarous,
With troubles aplenty.
Yous asked for a reason—
I've got three and twenty
For why I
Trust you—
Y'all're pure equally the driven snow.
That'southward why I
Trust yous—
You're pure as the driven snow.
"The Valley Song"
Mentioned by Peeta while he and Katniss are taking refuge in the cavern. He says how he remembers Katniss singing this vocal at school when they were children. The Valley Song may be the aforementioned song that Lucy Gray Baird sang in the monkey cage at the Capitol and later to Snowfall in District 12. If and then, and so the song is a slightly modified version of "Down in the Valley," a traditional American folk song.
Information technology was described that Lucy sounded so sad and lost as she sang it. (Pg 69 & 70)
Lyrics
Down in the valley, valley then depression,
Belatedly in the evening, hear the train accident.
The Train, honey, hear the train blow.
Late in the evening, hear the train blow.
Go build me a mansion, build information technology so high,
So I tin can run into my true beloved go by.
Meet him go past, dear, run across him go by.
And then I can run across my true dear go past.
Go write a letter of the alphabet, ship it by mail.
Bake information technology and stamp it to the Captiol jail.
Capital letter jail, love, to the Capitol jail.
Broil it and postage information technology to the Captiol jail.
Roses are reddish, dear; violets are bluish.
BIrds in the heavens know I beloved yous.
Know I love you, oh, know I honey you,
Birds in the heavens know I beloved you.
