half of my life in the customer service line.
Hockey RBB post the second: Sidney Crosby mix edition. "Your Robot Heart is Bleeding" was written for it by taliahale (AO3 link). Again, only a zip for the whole mix, no individual track links. Posted to Tumblr as well and I'll add a proper link later (I'm thecointossed, in any case).

01. "Winning" - Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton
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?
open your chest and take the heart from it
when you talk, can i tape you?
how'd you get what we don't know?
we don't know how to help, only know how to hound
nose to the grindstone: grindstone to the ground
02. "Remains" - Maurissa Tancharoen & Jed Whedon
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
03. "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
but i don't, i don't know what that will be
i'll get back to you someday soon you will see
05. "Dying" - The Whigs
it used to be right in front of you but now it's gone
it used to be right in front of you but now it's gone
somebody better come speed up your heart 'cause it's dying
somebody better come speed up your heart 'cause it's dying
04. "Stars With Them, Ends With Us" - Dan Mangan
don't speak until you've caught your breath
don't sleep unless you're safe in bed
just pray in the night they take someone instead
the hills are alive with the sounds in your head
please dear, be sure of us and ours
don't fear the worst in case it comes
06. "The Deep End" - Hannah Georgas
no one needs to know, no one needs to know right now
take a deep breath and don't let 'em break you down
who has the say on how the way things should be?
who will take you home when the lights go on and your glass is empty?
who will hold your breath when you're diving off the deep end?
07. "Your Game" - Tegan & Sara (live)
she says you've got to buy the right clothes
and you've got to shop at the right stores
and the singer takes a walk on the front porch
broken hands, no words, it could have been worse
takes her place at the back of the line
says, "baby, you're much better than fine"
you go and i will stay
and if you love him, i will hate him
and everything about this game--
nothing is gonna keep me away
08. "Radioactive In The Dark" - Fall Out Boy & Imagine Dragons (mash-up)
writers keep writing what they write
somewhere another pretty vein just dies
i've got the scars from tomorrow and i wish you could see
that you're the antidote to everything except for me
a constellation of tears on your lashes
burn everything you love, then burn the ashes
in the end everything collides--my childhood
spat back out the monster that you see
09. "Mr. Hurricane" - Beast
out of the harness
stumble in the darkness
head into the madness
trying to be righteous
i stopped being the victim
but you weren't there to see
i never felt bitter
until you prayed for me
10. "Sixties Remake" - Tokyo Police Club
classics in the modern age: sixties remake
everything you've got in spades
your collarbone, shoulder blades
bat your lips, shut your eyes
swing those chains and start a fight
'cause you've got nerve but we've got tact
going back to the city hearts
11. "Hot To the Touch, Cold On the Inside" - Fall Out Boy
if it's never been broken, can't believe in it
love is just a problem for someone else to fix
fuck your stubborn mouth, fuck your throat
i am your sacred cow, i am your secret too
they've got us surrounded, we're in their sights
but they're not taking us alive
hot to the touch, cold on the inside
but they're not taking us alive
BONUS: "Robots" - Dan Mangan
and i spent half of my life in the customer service line
flaws in the design: a sign of the times
and that little voice in the back of your mind
just wants you to know, just hopes that you know
robots need love too
