This is my first fanmix, and I'm excitednervousembarassednauseous about finally ~giving back~ even though this is for a film that like four people have seen.
Long story short, this is a mix for Willy/Sayra/their relationship throughout the movie. It's more or less chronological, and I'm not going to bore you with which "Ellos" songs are from whom/to whom, mostly since the lyrics are kind of obvious. Also, though Sayra obviously had ~feelings~ for Willy (which I feel where just as much displaced father-figure feelings as anything else, but I digress), the songs from Willy's point of view are overall more romantic than I consider his feelings for Sayra were...
SO, here it is. I'm probably going to do a couple more for Willy/Marta Marlena, the general movie (or, Songs That Make Me Think off The Trials/Tribulations of Illegal Immigrants as Seen in This Movie/Heard of from the Real Deal), Willy & Smiley and maybe a Ghost!Willy/Grown-up!Sayra/Grown-up!Smiley head-canon thing that also likes to rear its ugly head.
Also, this mix has absolutely no consistency of sound. Full disclosure guys.

Fractured-Zecromancer
Can't you see my hands are clean
I'm as holy as can be
I will never do you harm
I am fractured
It can't ever be the same
Can't you see my hands
Are clean
Can't you see
I'm as holy as can be
What kind of life is this?
What kind of life is this?
Hellhound on my Trail- Robert Johnson
I got to keep moving, I got to keep moving
Blues falling down like hail, blues falling down like hail
Mmm, blues falling down like hail, blues falling down like hail
And the day keeps remindin' me, there's a hellhound on my trail
Hellhound on my trail, hellhound on my trail
[Ellos]
I Will Follow You into the Dark- Chase Coy
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Walk Away- The Script
She's standin' in the heart of darkness
Saying "I know you got a soul even though you're heartless"
How could any woman in their right mind be so blind
To find something this safe
Instead of walking with me she should have walked away
[Ella]
I Won't Back Down- Dawn Landes
I won't back down, baby
There ain't no easy way out
I will stand my ground
And I won't back down
'Cause I know what's right
I've got just one life
In a world that keeps on dragging me down
Gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down
My Baby Needs A Shepherd- Emmylou Harris
My baby needs a pilot
She has no magic wand
To help her part the troubled waters
Of the Rubicon
But in my soul I know she'll
Have to go this one alone
After all that is the only way she's ever known
But there is no lamp in all this dark
That could chase away her shadow
From the corners of my heart
I pray she rides a dolphin
But she's swimming with the shark
Out where no one can save her
Not even Noah and his ark
[Ellos]
You'll Always Be My Best Friend- Relient K
I wish I knew you
Way back when
Before you were part of my plans
I think that we would have been friends
There's only time to live our lives
And you'll be the one who's by my side
And I can promise you then
You'll always be my best friend
'Til the end when we part
I will give you my heart
And I'll promise to love you with all that it is
And I'll promise to be there whenever you need me
Because you'll always be my best friend
Jesus- Brand New
Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face
The kind you'd find on someone I could save
If they don't put me away
Well, it'll be a miracle
Maps- Julie Fader
Perplexed by you
My gratitude
Is obvious
Nevertheless
When You Walk in the Room- Fyfe Dangerfield
I was tired
Working myself into an early grave
I was lonely
Trying to teach myself how to behave
But these things have their own patterns
These things are fathomlessly out of our hands
And when you walk in the room
I know my life's never going to be planned
Somebody like You- Keith Urban
Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
But you're teachin' me to be a better man
I don't wann take this life for granted like I used to do, no, no

Dew in the Grass- Sea Wolf
Way up where the lighthouse runs
Heard the crack of the hunters' guns
She held onto my hand
Drew our names in the river sand
And the dew in the grass had an electric glow
Yeah, the dew in the grass had an electric glow
It's All Over Now, Baby Blue- Bob Dylan
You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast
Yonder stands your orphan with is gun
Crying like a fire in the sun
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue
Wolves in the Garden- Deadly Syndrome
We walked and I said nothing
I didn't want to hurt the mood
I know we can't outrun them
But the flowers smell so good
Those wolves in the garden
Wolves in the garden...
Wolves in the garden...
Ahhhh
It's a sunny morning
They gave no warning
Those wolves, those wolves
In the garden
Can't Be Long- The Enablers
Well I think I'll go
Down to the river
And let that water
Wash over me
Yes I think I'll go
Down to the river
And let that water
Wash over me
'Cause it can't be long
You know it can't be long
Until my Lord remembers me
