Dear diary, mood, apathetic. my life is spiralling downward, I couldnt get enough money to go to the blood red romance and suffocate me dry concert, it sucks cause they play some of my favourite songs like stab my heart because I love you and rip apart my soul and of course stab me rippie stab stab. And it doesn't help that I couldn't get my hair into that flippy thingy either, like that guy from that band can do somedays.


I'm an emo kid noncomforming as can be you'd be noncomforming too if you looked just like me. I have paint on my nails and make up on my face I'm almost emo enough to start shaving my legs. cause I feel real deep when I'm dressing in drag I call it freedom of expression most just call me a fag cause our dudes look like chicks and our chicks look like dikes, cause emo is one step, below tranvestite

stop my breathing and slit my throat, I must be emo. I dont jump around when I go to shows, I must be emo. I'm dark, and sensitive with low self esteem, the way I dress makes everyday feel like Halloween. I have no real problems but I like to make believe. I stole my sisters mascara now I'm grounded for a week, sulking and writing poetry are my hobbies, I can get through a Hawthorn Heights album without sobbing. girls keep breaking up with me it's never any fun, they say they already have a pussy, they dont need another one.

stop my breatihng and slit my throat, I must be emo. I dont jump around when I go to shows, I must be emo. dye my hair and put polish on my toes, I must be emo. I play guitar and write suicide notes, I must be emo.

My life is just a black abyss, you know. its so dark. and it's suffocating me grabbing hold of me and tightning its grip, tighter than a pair of my little sisters jeans, which look great on me by the way

When I get depressed I cut my wrists in every direction. Hearing songs about getting dumped give me an erection. I write in a live journal and wear thick rimmed glasses, I tell my friends I bleed black and I cry during classes. I'm just bad cheap immitation of goth, you could even be catcher in the rye and watch me jack off. I wear skin tight clothes while hating my life, if I said I liked girls, I'd only be half right. I look like im dead and dress like a homo, I must be emo. screw xbox i play old school nintendo, i must be emo. i like to whine and hit my pa-rent-als, i must be emo. me and my friends all look like clones, i must be eeemo.

My parents just dont get me you know, they think I'm gay just because they saw me kiss a guy, well... a couple of guys. but I mean it's the 2000's...can't two, or four dudes make out with each other without being gay? I mean chicks dig that kind of thing anyways, I dont know diary, sometimes I think you're the only one that gets me... you're my best friend... I feel like tacos...

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
