Room 13 Lyrics
KEEP ME ALIVE
ONLY YOU CAN DO IT
IF NOT YOU'LL DIE TOO
AND I'LL SEE TO IT
IT'S HARD TO SURVIVE
DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO IT
KEEP ME ALIVE
I CAN'T ACCEPT MY FATE
I NEED HELP
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
IT'S HARD TO SURVIVE, DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO IT
I NEED TO BELONG, I NEED TO HANG ON
I NEED, NEED
KEEP ME ALIVE FEELINGS I MUST OBEY
CAN'T TURN MY EYES FROM THE PAST
THIS CRISIS IS THE LAST
KEEP ME ALIVE
I RELY ON YOUR JUDGEMENT
I'VE GOT NONE LEFT OF MY OWN
DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING
IT'S HARD TO SURVIVE, DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO IT
I NEED TO BELONG, I NEED TO HANG ON
I NEED, NEED
KEEP ME ALIVE
ONLY YOU CAN DO IT
KEEP ME ALIVE
ONLY YOU CAN DO IT
IT'S HARD TO SURVIVE, DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO IT
KEEP ME ALIVE
KEEP ME ALIVE
KEEP ME ALIVE
KEEP ME ALIVE
IT'S HARD TO SURVIVE, DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO IT
I NEED TO BELONG, I NEED TO HANG ON
I NEED, NEED
ONLY YOU CAN DO IT
IF NOT YOU'LL DIE TOO
AND I'LL SEE TO IT
DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO IT
I CAN'T ACCEPT MY FATE
I NEED HELP
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
I NEED TO BELONG, I NEED TO HANG ON
I NEED, NEED
CAN'T TURN MY EYES FROM THE PAST
THIS CRISIS IS THE LAST
I RELY ON YOUR JUDGEMENT
I'VE GOT NONE LEFT OF MY OWN
DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING
I NEED TO BELONG, I NEED TO HANG ON
I NEED, NEED
ONLY YOU CAN DO IT
KEEP ME ALIVE
ONLY YOU CAN DO IT
KEEP ME ALIVE
KEEP ME ALIVE
KEEP ME ALIVE
I NEED TO BELONG, I NEED TO HANG ON
I NEED, NEED

Best part about this song, is that while he's begging for this person to comfort him, begging for an emotional connection, he's also so fucked up at this point that he's threatening their life if they don't comply. Now what kind of love is that? The love of a very screwed up, battered soul, which is what Black Flag communicated better than anyone in the history of music---and usually not even by lyrics (one note from Greg Ginn's guitar communicates more despair than a thousand verses ever could).
I agree with zacharyy - No one tops Black Flag in the anger department. The guy is nuts, wants someone to love him but also wouldn't hesitate hurting them. Ginn's guitar playing is more feeling than musical. Just listen to his playing, his picking attack is more that of a trumpet player and a drummer than a guitarist. That's what I love about it. It's pure aggression. He did something new with the guitar, which is rad.
