A Place For My Head by Linkin Park. Not all the time, but when it's bad it's bad.
Great song, honestly I like the Tommy profitt version of “in the end” as well
Bo Burnham - That Funny Feeling
Gambino - Lithonia
Sum 41 Pieces
I like the question.
I had to think of two songs immediately:
Coldplay - Magic. I really feel the lyrics but the "of course I do" at the end always leaves me in tears.
Daft Punk - Touch. I always interpret the song as a robot struggling to become sentient, but it also reminds me of my process of leaving behind my angry and frustrated teen and early twenties self because I realized that it made me unhappy.
I second Touch! Though just with my own experience I project some level of transness onto the robot. Sort of this feeling, or moment, of finally becoming “living” and knowing what human contact and connection feels like, but struggling to find it.
"The tears I might have shed for your dark fate grow cold and turn to tears of hate."
From The Phantom of the Opera, after being cheated on and physically abused by my ex. He's a widower and used it as an excuse for his behavior.
Gojira: L'enfant Sauvage
The drum in that is wild
probably lemon tree by fools garden
I wonder how and I wonder why.
Y'all ready for this by 2 Unlimited
For those of you who don’t want to click the link their song of choice is:
(Bob Geldof - The Great Song Of Indifference)
I have no clue. I don't listen to lyrics because ADHD. The voice is just another instrument to me.
""" And I know you're going crazy
And I know you're going broke
And you're sitting here and laughing like that's some kind of joke, but I'm not laughing
And I want you to be careful
And I want you to be smart
I don't want you to romanticize falling the fuck apart
And I want you to remember that you're better
And I love you and I'll see you tomorrow """
One of the more powerful supportive songs I know.
Mah’s Joint - Jon Bellion
“When my mother was a mother to my mom”
Always brings me to tears
Product of my Own Design - Artio
“Get on your knees and pray to me
The problem child becomes the only God you'll ever see
You made me believe that I was never mine
I made my goddamn self, a product of my own design”
This song is fairly explicitly about being trans and struggling being seen as who you really are by family. It’s not really trying to be sad about it though, more empowering in spite of that struggle. Great song.
Seatbelts - Gotta Knock a Little Harder
Friend of Mine and Headlights by Charlie Cunningham
Falling In Reverse & Jellyroll - All My Life,
Fox Stevenson - Don’t Care Crown,
Quinn XCII - Tough
Rush - Losing It.
Also Marathon
It's All White Noise by Charli Morgan.
I just wanna be something good. I just wanna leave something decent. I just wanna make something I don't hate.
Jeff Rosenstock: "The Fuzz"
The Skin i Live In by Rav
Archenemy: There's a reason to believe
The pruld: We are the souls
Emmit Fenn: painting greys
Why does a song have to have lyrics in order to evoke strong emotion?
