Another great song from Citizen Soldier. If you've been following this blog, you probably know I'm a fan of “bitter” songs. We need more songs of this type haha.
So you better believe I'm still bitter
Oh how dare you just leave me this way
No I cannot erase what you left here
No I, cannot run, will not hide, one more day
You better believe I'm still jaded
So to hell with you and your stupid games
I'm so sick and tired of taking the high road,
Oh my, what a shame, guess I'll be, bitter right to the grave ♪ ♫ ♪
Not sure if this one is a cover. I think it might be an original. Either way, another good one from Taylor Acorn.
Lyrics are hilarious and scary at the same time. Makes perfect sense why the song is titled “Psycho”. 😄
Never been one of the crazy ones
Never been the girl to leave you like 30 missed calls
I'm not a villain but you made me one
So, now I'm throwing knives at pictures of your face on the wall
It seems like boys like you all love to say that chicks like me are just insane
But boys like you give men a shitty name
So, let's play a game
Where I throw a little brick through your pretty little face
You're easy on the eyes but you're easier to hate
An angel's gonna fall if you come around
If my name's still on your tongue, then I'll rip it out
Since I'm already the bad guy in your head, I'll hit you with my car and I'll leave you for dead
And I'll always like the view from the high road but baby for you, I'll be your psycho
I'll be your psycho
Love this track. The tone, the lyrics, the feels, this is what makes emo music great. This one though came out in 2018. This is what grown up emo music sounds like. That's to say, it's still pretty good.
Now my blood turns red to blue
And I can't breathe without you
Now my blood turns red to blue
My blood turns red to blue
And I can't breathe without you
No, I can't breathe, no, I can't breathe
If I pinch myself so that I wake
That means it never really happened
'Cause I can feel my tears finding their way
I fear it's worse than I imagined
But I'll hold this memory
And I swear I won't forget your face
'Cause pictures always seem to fade away ♪ ♫ ♪
If you're a fan of bass guitars, chances are you'll love this track. So much fun to listen to the bass on this one. The song itself is really good as well. The gist of the song is something like, “For every day, night and minute that passes by, I keep looking everywhere for you.”
A pretty good find and beautiful song from Colton Dixon.
I will build a boat in the sand where they say it never rains
I will stand up in faith, I'll do anything it takes
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I'll build a boat in the desert place
And when the flood and the water starts to rise, yeah
I'll ride the storm 'cause I got You by my side
With Your wind in my sails, Your love never fails or fades
I'll build a boat, so let it rain ♪ ♫ ♪
An amazing find! I've heard of ONE OK ROCK before, but never paid them any attention. I thought they were just a Japanese rock band and left it at that. Man, I was so wrong. These guys have some awesome songs. This one in particular, came out in 2019 it seems, but it sounds like a power ballad anthem from previous decades.
Must be something in the water
Feel like I can take the world
Throw the weight up on my shoulders
Cause I won't even feel the burn
Don't be afraid to dive
Be afraid that you didn't try
These moments remind us why
We're here, we're so alive
Let's live like we're immortal
Live just for tonight
We'll think about tomorrow, yeah
When the sun comes up
Cause by this time tomorrow
We'll be talking about tonight
Keep doing what we want, we want, we want
No more wasted nights ♪ ♫ ♪
A beautiful new song from The Rose. I initially thought it was cringe inducing when I first heard the lyrics to this song, but that last line in the chorus won me over, “My heart is so sour without you...”
Sour candy in your mouth
Thought I was sweet
But then you spit me out
I was so down
To call you my crown
Then you fell out and now
I'll never know how sweet you taste
I let you go and slip away
I know it hurts but it's the truth
My heart's so sour without you... ♪ ♫ ♪
Damn, this is a deep song. I mean, just read through the lyrics...
It's about someone asking a loved one to hate them, because it's not doing that other person any good. You could say it's a twisted manifestation of love to ask someone else to hate you, because you're not doing them any good. Again... this song is deep.
I'm sober now for three whole months
It's one accomplishment that you helped me with
The one thing that always tore us apart
Is the one thing I won't touch again
In my sick way I wanna thank you
For holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging wars on myself
You were trying to stop the fight
You never doubted my warped opinions
On things like suicidal hate
You made me compliment myself
When it was way too hard to take
So I'll drive so fucking far away
That I never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes in your heart
To leave me behind
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things
I didn't do for you
Hate me in ways
Yeah, ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally
See what's good for you
