"I belong here. I have earned the right to stand with these women". - Gladys Witham

Not A Pretty Girl → Ani DiFranco
i am not an angry girl
but it seems i've got everyone fooled
everytime i say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger and never to their own fear

i am not a pretty girl
that is not what i do

Helplessness Blues → Fleet Foxes
i was raised up believing i was somehow unique
like a snowflake distinct among snowflakes, unique in each way you can see
and now after some thinking, i'd say i'd rather be
a functioning cog in some great machinery serving something beyond me

Nothing to Remember → Neko Case
i've spent my life becoming invisible
its hard to maintain and its hard to get by
i don't recall fight or flight setting in
i have no introduction
i just breathe it in like the air
and there's nothing to remember
there is nothing to remember

Promise → Throwback
i take a dose of everyday
but how am i supposed to stay
in a world built on empty ways
and the lessons are all the rage

She's Long Gone → The Black Keys
she was made to blow you away
she don't care what any man say

Oh My God → Ida Maria
find a cure, find a cure for my life
paint a smile, paint a smile on my face
put a prize, put a prize on my soul

oh my god, oh you think i'm in control
oh my god, oh you think it's all for fun

Keep Your Head Up → Ben Howard
i cut my mind on second best; oh the scars that come with the greenness
and i gave my eyes to the boredom, still the seabed wouldn't let me in
and I tried my best to embrace the darkness in which i swim

oh my my darling keep your head up, keep your heart strong
oh no no no keep your mind set in your ways, keep your heart strong

Crystal Ball → P!nk
drinking wine and thinking bliss is on the other side of this
i just need a compass and a willing accomplice
all my doubts that fill my head cascading up and down again

love just needs a witness and a little forgiveness
and a halo of patience and a less sporadic pace
and i'm learning to be brave in my beautiful mistakes

oh i've felt that fire and i've been burned
but i wouldn't trade the pain for what I've learned

Life Boat → Ani DiFranco
everytime i open my mouth i take off my clothes
and I'm raw and frostbitten from being exposed
- - -
and I've got this running monologue entertaining in its outrage
and i've got the air of an animal that's been living in a cage

One More Time → Jesse Langseth
and i will not be afraid to fall
expose it all
to get this peace of mind
and I will not be afraid to fall
to lose it all
and leave this old life behind

Mehendi Rachi → Mumford & Sons, Dharohar Project & Laura Marling
perhaps i'll be a bird one day
if I'm good enough
and i'll spread out and fly away
and give up all this stuff

and i am from a country land
where beauty only grows
and though i'd love to leave someday
i dare not ever go

Your mix is actually flawfree. I watched the pilot of this show, but then the rest got kinda lost in the shuffle, but I fully intend to catch up. Your mix is definitely a good incentive for that! Your artwork is stunning and the song choices are, ugh, actually perfect. Everything is right with this mix, negl :3
