Grown Up Orphan: A Clementine Fanmix

Jan 28, 2011 22:08

I made this for lost_land 's Big Bang. This is my first installment-there will be many more :)

This is a fanmix for grown up Clementine, the daughter of Sawyer and Cassidy.

Points: 15
Total points: 15







1. Let the Rain-Sara Bareilles
I want to be enough
I want the water in my eyes
I want to cry until the end of time

I want to let the rain come down
Make a brand new ground

Clementine wants to be strong enough to be a brand new person, to shake off her past.

2. More Than This-Matt Nathanson
She said "I know you, you're a salesman's son
And you're pimping pretty junk"
And I said, "What am I supposed to do?
They've built the scenes around you
And I need more than this"
And she said, "What am I supposed to do?
Look at what's been come of you
And I need more than this
I'm through now
And I need more than this"

How Clementine views her parents' relationship...Sawyer as the con man, and her mother as the woman who needed more.

3. Winter Song by Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson
This is my winter song to you.
The storm is coming soon,
It rolls in from the sea.
My voice, a beacon in the night.
My words will be your light,
To carry you to me.
Is love alive?

When Clementine was younger, she would think if she just wished hard enough, her father would be alive again, and he would come back to her.

4. Witness by Sarah McLachlan

soul searching
as we carried the weight
and died for the cause
is misery
made beautiful
right before our eyes
will mercy be revealed
or blind us where we stand

Clementine used to blame herself for her father being gone, miserable because he wasn't there with her and her mother.

5. Name by Goo Goo Dolls
And now we're grown up orphans
And never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame
But you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name

Then Clementine meets Aaron, who understands exactly where she's coming from. When they're together, neither has to bear the burden of being the child of an Oceanic 815 passenger.

6. 3 AM by Matchbox Twenty

She says baby
It's 3 am I must be lonely
When she says baby
Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes
Says the rain's gonna wash away I believe it

Even with Aaron in her life, Clementine cannot shake her fear of abandonment and being alone.

7. Enough for Now by The Fray
And that's enough for now
He never wanted to leave you broken
He would have held you
Things your father never could do
That's enough for now
I would have never left you broken
I would have held you
Things your father never could do
Words your father never told you

Aaron hopes someday Clementine can forgive her father, and that she will trust Aaron when he promises he'll never leave her.
