She, she is the love that you make
And break
And he, he is the drug that you hate
To crave
And I, I am the liar you made
To praise
And you, you are the one that we want
And made

Who will convince us
The wicked will
Who will condemn us
The wicked will
Who will defend us
The wicked will
Always

We are the wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
Who adore you
The wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
Will destroy you
We are the loss of your innocence
We are the wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
Coming for you

We, we are the scar on the skin again
Massive lines of wondering eyes
Waiting, waiting to be
Bastardized, monopolized
Selling clones of every kind

Who will convince us
The wicked will
Who will condemn us
The wicked will
Who will defend us
The wicked will
Always

We are the wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
Who adore you
The wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
Will destroy you
We are the loss of your innocence
We are the wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
(The wicked ones)

Kill yourself
To save yourself
From yourself

Kill yourself
To save yourself
From yourself

Kill yourself
To save yourself
From yourself

Before you become
One of us
Before you become
One of us

We are the wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
Who adore you
The wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones
Will destroy you
We are the loss of your innocence
We are the wicked, the wicked, the wicked ones

You will become
One of us

    I'd have to agree with just about everyone on this. Everyone is tempted by demons, and one day, we all give in. We are human, and no matter how we attempt to resist, we always find ourselves lost in what is wrong or wicked

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
