Now Listening to... 🎧

Beautiful song from Thousand Foot Krutch. Love the lyrics on this one. I only heard this song today. What a great find!

They say You're always there, You never leave Even when we don't believe And that sounds like love to me I know I couldn't do the same

And they said that You can see my heart Then You already know I'm falling apart That's why I hide here in the dark So no one has to see my pain

I've never prayed so can we just talk? Don't wanna put You on the spot, But can You bring the keys to my heart And help me find a way.

They make me feel so empty Their words they cut like knives You tell me to forgive them But I'm not sure I'll survive

I'm not sure this is a good time Or even if You're home It's a long long way from Your throne

But can You meet me in my room A place where I feel safe Don't have to run away And I can just be me Can You meet me in my room A place where I feel strong A place where I belong And I can call my own

Won't You meet me, meet me in my room Where there's no one else allowed but You I've been waiting for so long to meet You I'll be waiting... ♪ ♫ ♪

Back to the 70s with this wonderful #ThrowbackThursday song from Bread. Gotta say, those lyrics are pretty good too. Maybe this is what emo was in the 70s haha.

Lost and all alone I always thought that I could make it on my own Since you left, I hardly make it through the day My tears get in the way And I need you back to stay

I wander through the night And search the world to find the words to make it right All I want is just the way it used to be With you here close to me I've got to make you see

That I'm lost without your love Life without you isn't worth the trouble of I'm as helpless as a ship without a wheel A touch without a feel I can't believe it's real

And someday soon, I'll wake And find my heart won't have to break ♪ ♫ ♪

Beautiful song from Colton Dixon. Listen to this as if your Dad/Mom or God was singing this to you and it will blow your mind.

Lights off, a shot in the dark We get lost when we’re playing a part We lay blame like we know what’s best It’s a shame…

We break when we fall too hard Lose faith when we’re torn apart Don’t say you’re too far gone It’s a shame It’s a shame

I’m still standing here No I didn’t disappear Now the lights are on See I was never gone I let go of your hand To help you understand With you all along Oh, I was never gone ♪ ♫ ♪

I've said in a previous post, the best thing about emo music are the lyrics. Next comes the tone and feel of the song. I'm just a sucker for songs like this one. This one might not be as popular as other songs from the 2000s, but this is a classic emo track for me. There is a rawness here that is missing from a lot of pop music.

So what's the point in all of this? When you will never change The days have pass, the weather's changed Should I be sorry? Could I be sorry?

I did it all, all for you Hoping you would see Your eyes are dull, your hands are clenched Are we ready? Are we ready?

But you You think about yourself Only but yourself But what about

Un-lonely nights Romantic moments The love, the love What about them? Throw it all away ♪ ♫ ♪

A beautiful sad song from Chester See.

I know it sounds crazy But I need you to trust me If it's how it must be Then I'll fade away

When it finally feels true Then do what you have to 'Cause I'll never blame you For not choosing me But I'm not over you

But If there is somebody that makes you feel happy Tends to your heart in the ways I'd been lacking Then who am I who am I to stand in your way That I feel is no longer your burden If there is someone that can make you feel perfect Then who am I who am I to stand in your way... To stand in your way... To stand in your way... I won't stand in your way... ♪ ♫ ♪

Heal my heart and make it clean Open up my eyes to the things unseen Show me how to love Like You have loved me Break my heart for what breaks Yours Everything I am For Your kingdom’s cause As I walk from earth into eternity

Back to the 90s with today's #ThrowbackThursday track from Rockstar. What I love the most about this song are the chord changes. This is not a song you can easily figure out the chords to, just by ear. They don't make songs like this anymore.

I don't wanna lose you Girl, I need you back to me I don't wanna lose you Baby, can't you see? Oh, I need you You've been a part of me I wish someday, you'll be back home 'Cause I really miss you, darling Please come home ♪ ♫ ♪

One of the things I really like about emo music are their beautiful lyrics. This is a classic from Mayday Parade!

It all goes back to the first kiss It was the one I thought I'd never miss Maybe we were one of the lucky ones Maybe I'm just not quite strong enough

This was supposed to be the easy part But breaking down is what I found hard Now I'm wearing this smile that I don't believe in Inside I feel like screaming

She gave me every reason to believe I'd found the one But my doubts somehow they sold me out

I'm bruised and scarred Save me from this broken heart All my love will slowly fade and fall apart Someone please, sing this lovesick melody Call my name if you're afraid, I'm just a kiss away ♪ ♫ ♪

#MaydayParade

Her eyes are diamonds at night Her hair shines like the moon She don't know, she don't know I think she's better than gold

She's worth more than he sees Deserve someone who loves her Its time I let her know I think she's better than gold ♪ ♫ ♪

Been busy... but here's another pretty good track from Cold.

I must hold on This happens all the time I still find my faith in you I can't hold on This happens all the time I still find my way to you... ♪ ♫ ♪
