Title: Daddy's Little Defect
Warnings: Little bit of angst and self loathing. And perhaps some female empowerment? Hrm.
Other Notes: So I've been working on this mix for a few days now. I wanted to make a mix for Quinn that embodied her self image/popularity issues during the pregnancy scandal, but also displayed her transition for HBIC to regular human being with feelings. I'm kind of confident that I captured that, but your opinions are always valued :) Also this was a bit difficult for me because I'm a hardcore Faberry shipper and I had to remember that it is totally non canon xD So there are a few Finn/Quinn and Puck/Quinn songs. Artists include: Garbage, Ani Difranco, and As Tall As Lions.
1. breaking up the girl - garbage
One mistake's all it takes
And your life has come undone
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
It's a drag
I know it's hard
But you're tearing her apart
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
I am afraid that there's much to be afraid of
Here today and gone tomorrow
Don't end up in the gutter
Just like the one before
You're just the same
Such a loser
2. anything I'm not - lenka
I will never be, I will never be tall, no
And I will never be, never ever be sure of it all
Oh, why's the world so cruel to me?
When all, all I ever wanna be is anything I'm not
Gimme a break, a little escape
I am so tired of being me
I wanna be free, I wanna be new and different
Anything I'm not, I'm not
3. daddy's little defect - sugarcult
(Puck/Quinn)
So don't don't don't make a sound your father's around to play with your head
The gift-wrapped guilt-trip kisses left you naked in your bed
And all I see don't don't don't believe
And what you see is what you get with me
Wasting all your time
Wasting all your time
Going all the way, looking so helpless
Everyday
Daddy's little defect
All the same
Keep your secrets away
4. little bombs - dashboard confessional
You out to know better,
Than to bait your jailor
You ought to know
You ought to know better
How do you deal with the consequence?
Now that we bear the weight of your arrogance
I know you and your cons
Your petty little bombs
But who will you blame your troubles on now?
5. breaking - anberlin
(Finn/Quinn)
Do you memorize theatrical lines
That seem to lead them in
Play the role with a good girl heart
Hide the tangled webs within
Who was it that led you on,
and makes you want to hurt me so?
Who do you want to forget,
That forgot you long ago?
6. chin up - copeland
Back to where we started,
Losing who we were,
Maybe we should only
Tip a bottle back to keep us filled up.
Back to where we started,
Losing who we were,
Everybody knows that,
You’d break your neck to keep your chin up.
7. I'm kicking myself - as tall as lions
(Finn/Quinn)
and hey babe, I feel as though I've lost you
and I feel as though, you dont want me
and I keep kickin' myself
and lately, when i sleep alone
i feel that, i oughta learn
you dont need me
just stop kidding myself
8. save me - aimee mann
C'mon and save me
Why don't you save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks who could never love anyone
9. losing sleep - charlotte sometimes
Be the winner you always were,
Don’t you, don’t you dare lose.
Be the humble girl you are
Don’t cry in strangers cars.
La La Goodnight.
I’m awake and I’ve been losing sleep.
I’ve been fighting all my demons,
I’ve been getting weak cause I’ve been
Trying, trying, trying to be
Anything other than me.
10. not a pretty girl - ani difranco
I am not an angry girl
but it seems like I've got everyone fooled
every time I say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger
and never to their own fear
and imagine you're a girl
just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well they'd prefer you
were dirty and smiling
and I am sorry
I am not a maiden fair
and I am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere
11. when the curious girl realizes she is under glass - bright eyes
Saying, ...time take us forward. Relief from this longing,
they can land that plane on my heart I don't care
just give me November, the warmth of a whisper
in the freezing darkness of my room.
But no matter what I would do in attempt to replace.
All these pills that I take trying to balance my brain.
I've seen the curious girl with that look on her face.
So surprised she stares out from her display case.
