10. Lorde, Pure Heroine
- We're so happy, even when we're smilin' out of fear- Tennis Courts

My single star amongst the gray/Always shining down- Golden7. Mandisa, Overcomer- They remind me of Your faithfulness//And all You brought me through/They teach me that my brokenness/Is something You can use/They show me where I’ve been and/That I’m not there any more- What Scars Are For
