1. "I Won't Back Down" | Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Well I know what's right. I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around.
But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down.

2. "Take Me to Church" | Hozier

No masters or kings
When the ritual begins.
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin.
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene:
Only then I am human,
Only then I am clean
Amen. Amen. Amen.

3. "Elastic Heart" | Sia

And I want it, I want my life so bad.
I'm doing everything I can.
Then another one bites the dust.
It's hard to lose a chosen one.
