I won't share the songs, but I think the modern hardcore scene has a few of the greatest lyricists. Sister made me husband she was older so I did her bidding I remember once their dad came in said, 'You think this is bad? You don’t know the half.' And he laughed. It’s funny what things come back The first things you see How he sort of smiled like it’s only a joke but he was lying There was something else inside of his eyes All those secrets people tell to little children Are warnings that they give them Like, 'Look, I’m unhappy. Please don’t make the same mistake as me.'" -For Mayor in Splitsville by La Dispute -The Man with the Broken Nose by Locktender I woke to Dragon's breath and summer tugging at my sheets to pull me out of bed Drunk in the night I swear I saw a raven grow black as your hair Out of your thoughts, into the sky and through the outer holds One year ago I watched dance across a wedding floor In a bridesmaids dress that fell to pieces at your feet Could you not see? So many thoughts came unsummoned to me then Unuttered on the car ride home Before you left for the new world in shades of blue I woke yesterday to no one lying by my side Just empty pictures frames and broken dresser drawers Where did you go?" -I'm Still a Loner, Dottie by Troubled Coast Leave a wake in the hearts that hurt you Pick your poison as dead beats do Blood pulsing through your wounds A thousand warnings are ringing true Burning their homes, writing in stone The name of demons inside of you You left your mark on this world You left your scar on this world You left your scar You left your mark Wound them" -Dead Beat by Converge Death ran away then life flooded in world This I am: Imbalanced, beautifully so Hands connected, perhaps... Then dead reflections saw You I did, didn't I? I didn't, did I? You saw reflections dead then Perhaps, connected hands... So beautifully Imbalanced: Am I this world? In flooded life then away ran Death Receding tides" -REDIVIDER by Silent Planet that's been here awhile so I plan to keep watch as long as the wolves are out they're always around and more violet than hell I have eyes of every color now and they're vigilant it doesn't matter who knocks you don't let them in there are terrible men I'm one so I should know heaven smiles on me now and then but the devil always had hooks in" -Moor by Every Time I Die Mountains of plastic: melting away As long as these struggles are aimless, We will all be standing still When worded correctly, truth is never a cliche; This is because so many are attached to their deaf ears Collect the leaves Count them Name them Study each and every single one of them" -Danger: Wildman by The Devil Wears Prada just to name a few."We played house with the neighbors in their basement
"In a moment of clarity, bathed in these broken shards, we found our muse through deconstructive means and laid it out for the world to see."
"Drunk in the morning
"Pick your poison as dead beats do
"Tides receding
