BIRDY - WHITE WINTER HYMNAL
i was following the pack all swallowed in their coats
with scarves of red tied 'round their throats
to keep their little heads from falling in the snow
and i turned 'round and there you go
and michael, you would fall and turn the white snow
red as strawberries in the summertime
LOVERS - THE SIRENS SING
my teachers told me: try and organize your thoughts, said: the way your mind wanders, girl, you're sure to get lost
lately i'm counting things i can count on to come back to me, so i'm just hanging around, trying to pass the time
'cause i hear it heals all wounds and eventually decides for me, i'll just sit here and watch my choices tick away
and maybe find someone to distract me while i wait, so i guess i'm okay
but when i hear the sirens sing i wish they were singing for me, i've made mistakes, but help is coming
i called out late and someone was listening but with your hand on my pulse you claim i'm ill-advised
you say look at me now, don't shut those dyslexic eyes, so your heart's a slow learner and those drugs are its disguise
well it's a clear costume, you might as well not try to hide, at least your heart is trying
and the strange thing about this life is that no one fits in quite right, does your heartbeat seem like a lie?
the way it just don't feel right inside? well so does mine
EMILY JANE WHITE - WILD TIGERS I HAVE KNOWN
silence is a power and a tool for you
wild tigers i have known, they send me down, messin' around
you keep your heart from your chest, it'll be gone just like the rest
'cause it's a man's world, say all the right words and hold your heart from your chest
the silence and the color and their beauty stands right and still for you
holdin' flames, holdin' hands in hearts and their bindings held tightly
lyin' in the shady grass, their teeth grinding, inside is foreign
'cause it's the magic hand that holds you gently and turns one into many
and there inside it's bloody to reach boldly for truth spoken from mouth in his name
IRON & WINE - FADED FROM THE WINTER
daddy's ghost behind you, sleeping dog beside you
you're a poem of mystery, you're the prayer inside me
spoken words like moonlight, you're the voice that i like
needlework and seedlings in the way you're walking
to me from the timbers, faded from the winter
THE SHINS - A COMET APPEARS
close your eyes to corral a virtue, is this fooling anyone else?
never worked so long and hard to cement a failure
we can blow on our thumbs and posture but the lonely is such delicate things
the wind from a wasp could blow them into the sea with stones on their feet
lost to the light and the loving we need
with burnt sage and a forest of bygones i click my heels
get the devils in line, list of things i could lay the blame on might give me a way out
but with each turn it's this front and center like a dart stuck square in your eye
every post you can hitch your faith on is a pie in the sky chock full of lies
a tool we devise to make sinking stones fly
and still to come the worst part and you know it
there is a numbness in your heart and it's growing
EMMY THE GREAT - NORTH
and do you go where the needle leads to? and when you get there will you change?
out where the nights are soft and now you go because you think that paradise should be tamed
and how you live is by a map of humanity and now you grip it 'cause you think that it saves
but i've seen what you see, it looks different to me, i see lights to the shore
all these hearts beating other rhythms, now they die to be born and all their mysteries are dying with them
and there's a place called north and you're gathering there to sing
and i knock three times and beg you but you will not let me in
but though i love so hard now i'm the carrier to this gate
and i lay what i can somewhere north of us, and would you turn me away again?
and would these winds would lift and they carry me to your door
and i knock three times and tell you i can't help where i was born
but don't i love enough, isn't holiness where it forms?
if i take what i have to the north, is there room on your piece of heaven?
EMILIE AUTUMN - MAD GIRL
mad girl, can you believe what they've done to you?
wouldn't they stop when you asked them to leave you alone?
in all your fairy tales how did the prince say he loved you?
how did your father die? was he a good man? maybe someday you'll know
the beginning and the end, much closer than they seem
death is but a dream, i know, dolls are meant to throw away
all broken and bent from petty play, still i fly, still i fall
like the water in the well, my melancholy state, folly, fear and hate, i know
even time will never tell, she teetered, she tripped and then she fell
my faith in this world is a bottle of nothing, still i fly, still i fall
MY BRIGHTEST DIAMOND - BE BRAVE
i am the bird in water, the whale on sand, i am the flood, the fire, the oil spill
i'm feeling scared and i am overwhelmed and so i don my mask and finger bells
be brave dear one, be changed or be undone
i am the slave, i'm under house arrest, i am the beater
i am beaten for less than being punk and feeling anger swell
and so i don my beaded dress and finger bells
oh, pride what would you do with me? oh, pride what's my responsibility?
KATIE GRAY - SET FREE
there's a cold fire, there's a crossfire
and there's something inside, inside
and we'll never, never make it, and we'll never, never break it
there's a long game, that's a wrong chain and it's something we all hide it inside
and we'll never, never make it, and we'll never, never break it
until we learn to see until we set free
and you've got style, and you've got grace, and you've got the means to leave that place
but you'll never, never make it, and you'll never, never break it
until you learn to see, until you set free
TORI AMOS - YES, ANASTASIA
show me the ways i forgot to be speaking, show me the ways to get back to the garden
show me the ways to get around the get around, show me the ways to button up buttons
that have forgotten they're buttons, well we can't have that
girls, what have we done to ourselves? driving on the vine over clothes lines
but officer i saw the sign, thought i'd been through this in 1919
counting the tears of ten thousand men and gathered them all but my feet are slipping
there's something we left on the windowsill, there's something we left, yes
we'll see how brave you are, we'll see how fast you'll be running
we'll see how brave you are, yes, anastasia, and all your dollies have friends
THE HUSH SOUND - MAGNOLIA
eyes like sea glass, so weathered and worn
from all they've seen of adolescence torn
run where you'll be safe, through the garden gates
to the shelter of magnolias, there's not much time
the blush in the sky begins to fade
you were weathered and worn, your petals soft and torn
the fading color, you have bent your shoulders
to hold the weight of the world, you will surely shatter
MAURISSA TANCHAROEN - REMAINS
burn down my home, my memories hardened and are bright as chrome
good times escape while every mistake seems to be caught on tape
i will go rolling fast, arms out in the rain
feel momentum building ’til i lift off ground like an airplane
love ties you down to the pain, a billion eyes are watching, fossilized, they see what remains
gave up this town, what waste are we left with when it’s boiled down
shine light on me, your image reflected is all you’ll ever see
EMILY HAINES & THE SOFT SKELETON - WINNING
some part of you, too small to lose, some part of you, too small to lose
all of us, all of you, counting to the last breath we take
what we make doesn't make sense, what's a wolf without a pack?
don't even visit that place, they'll sharpen their teeth on your smile
i'm glad you didn't, all our songs will be lullabies in no time
LOVERS - AN ARMY OF LOVERS CANNOT FAIL
if they send the wolves, i'll join the wolves
and i'll return some day with my teeth sharper and my blood hotter
i'll be the dog by your grave with a hanging tongue and a ribcage and a chewed-up tail
howling with my last exhale, an army of lovers cannot fail
VILLAGERS - BECOMING A JACKAL
when the morning came you would catch me at the window again
in an eyes wide open sleeping state, staring into space with no look upon my face
i was a dreamer, staring at windows out onto the main street
'cause that's where the dream goes and when i got older, when i grew bolder
out onto the streets i flew, released from your shackles, i danced with the jackals
and learned a new way to move, so before you take this song as truth
you should wonder what i'm taking from you, how i benefit from you being here
lending me your ears while i'm selling you my fears
REGINA SPEKTOR - APRES MOI
i must go on standing, you can't break that which isn't yours
i must go on standing, i'm not my own, it's not my choice
be afraid of the lame, they'll inherit your legs
be afraid of the old, they'll inherit your souls
be afraid of the cold, they'll inherit your blood
apres moi le deluge, after me comes the flood
SEA WOLF - WINTER'S HEIR
stepped out through the melting ice, took care in the coming light
cathedral bells ringing down, branches blooming all through town
and in my ears a steady ring kept me moving toward the spring
it was a long, long cold year but i think it's all becoming clear
and i've thought it through, i think i want it too
'cause i saw you there upon your chair, in the light of winter's heir
and your emerald eyes and auburn hair, in the light of winter's heir
THE DECEMBERISTS - DON'T CARRY IT ALL
so raise a glass to turnings of the season
and watch it as it arcs towards the sun
and you must bear your neighbor's burden within reason
and your labors will be borne when all is done
and nobody knows, let the yoke fall from our shoulders
don't carry it all, we are all our hands in holders beneath this bold and brilliant sun

edit: back to say that I've listened to the fanmix and I love it! It suits Sansa so perfectly and all the songs you chose are so beautiful. "Mad Girl" especially struck a chord with me, for it's lyrics really highlighted all the trauma that Sansa has gone through.
