Favorite Lines from an Emo Song? (quote)

emo... what a load of £*($&£$*&. seriously, it's self indulgent ***** that doesn't help anyone and only makes its' listeners self obsessed and depressed. there is a whole world out there of people starving, homeless, ACTUALLY depressed by real life incidents and not ones written by grown adults who should know better. seriously, you're probably all at a influential age but i beg you now, leave emo well alone because it will dictate your personallity and turn you into a real life loser. and no i'm not a f*ckin' jock, far from it.

GET REAL.

peace, b0b x

can it. loser. apparently you have no idea what real emo is...and you associate it with the fashion trend.. shut up.

uglehb0b · 01-02-2006, 10:50 PM

so enlighten me. i am going on the lyrics posted, the lyrics i've forever heared and the people associated with emo who consider themselves to be true emo fans. you can't just call me a loser then not structure an argument as to why you did, that's moronic.

All games they play
Undead and awake and returning within
You are a devil, they say and it's candy
How long I've known this seed burst and grown
You're the one that I love
You are the one that I trust
And it's candy

When they speak of the open door and the way you've flown it's fine
When they show me the evidence and they're talking down your memory
Nevermind the words they waste
They can't see you're mine
Waiting here until words run out
Dreaming of the day when you open your arms in the light of our love...

Emo lyrics Sunny Day Real Estate "Rain Song"
I can post more alot of emo lyrics really aren't depressing thats just a stereotype.
and half the lyrics in here are lame scene bands.

PerFeCTioNThrUSileNCe · 01-02-2006, 11:03 PM

you based your opinion on the fashion trend, and the new bands like hawthorne heights and silverstein that call themselves emo.

Saetia

Thursday maybe not the best example....but way better than the crap youre basing your opinions on.

Rites of Spring

there ya go....

(2100th post wooo!)

uglehb0b · 01-02-2006, 11:17 PM

right. to quote saetia...

I bleed onto a page for you where diction has lost all its meaning,
and secrets fall from lips like dying petals in a forgotten garden.
Believing language we speak in tongues deceiving ourselves,
my heart whispers in forms that twenty years of reason and cognition have rendered useless.

... this is an example of exactlly what i was talking about. it makes sense, but it's written in completely pointless code and all that does is magnify how incredibly self obsessed it is. i'm sorry man but that's just the way it is. i'm more than happy to give things time, to let them have their say but you give me this to work with and it doesn't change a thing. don't hate me man, i'm just working with what you give me.

a translation of the poetry:

we can't communicate anymore.

i believe music should be about the world around us. it's beautiful and there's so much out there. to be forever surrounded by broken mirrors would drive even the strongest man to insanity and that, in my opinion, is what emo does.

i'm sorry.

bob.

i see what youre saying. i think it may just be the opinions you form based on the some of the lyrics. a lot of emo is very poetic though. and is somewhat different. not self obsessed like you seem to think it is.

to each his own, i suppose. but your original post made it hard to believe that you were forming opinions on anything but the poppy crap that is played in the mainstream media today. emo has nothing to do with making people depressed. its simply a different way of expressing an outlook. in this case more...emotionally or confessionally.

you came on quite strong with your first post ever on this board. and made it seem especially like you based your opinion on nothing but the crap thats forced down our throats these days. i understand your opinion and completely see where youre coming from, but try not to be so abrasive with it.

i agree with what you've said woo!

uglehb0b · 01-02-2006, 11:41 PM

on reflection it was rather abrasive and for that i apologise!

and as for the mainstream media... may they forever taint and curse the whole of the music industry - bastards!!

good day sir!
