Can't post links here yet, but the song that really creeped me out the most will be Robert Wyatt - Sea Song.
Something strange and scary is felt all along the songs. A true dark masterpiece.

Amazing song, but it's a love song which kinda eclipses all creepiness.

I also wrote in your thread how to post YT vids.

I don't know what this song is about, but i assume it's about a man who is raped as a boy who grows up to do the same.

Bright Eyes - Amy In The White Coat

Deals with a father sexually abusing his daughter. He mentions that he used to do the same thing to her older sisters too, but she's (Amy) "his favorite one".



Immortal Technique - Dance With The Devil

Talks about a young man aspiring to join a gang and willing to do whatever it took to become initiated. In the end he had to rape and kill a woman whose head was covered by her own shirt only to find out after-the-fact that it was his own mother that he raped. He then commits suicide while the gang proceeded to kill his mother.

A mother sings a lullaby to a child
Sometime in the future the boy goes wild
And all his nerves are feeling some kind of energy

A walk in the woods and I will try
Something under the trees that made you cry
It's so erotic when your make up runs

I got wiring loose inside my head
I got books that I never ever read
I got secrets in my garden shed
I got a scar where all my urges bled
I got people underneath my bed
I got a place where all my dreams are dead
Swim with me into your blackest eyes

A few minutes with me inside my van
Should be so beautiful if we can
I'm feeling something taking over me

Actually, this is from Songfacts. Jonathan Davis quote.

"People think 'Daddy' was written because my dad f--ked me up the ass, but that's not what the song is about. It wasn't about my dad or mom. When I was a kid I was being abused by someone else and I went to my parents and told them about it. They thought I was lying and joking around, so they never did any s--t about it. They don't believe it was happening to their son. I don't like to talk about it."
