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 ♪ ♫ ♪
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 ♪ ♫ ♪
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... ♪ ♫ ♪
You're just a sad song with nothing to say
About a life-long wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong
This never meant nothing to you ♪ ♫ ♪
Hectic day at work. I need an escape. Here is another really good song from Papa Roach. Y'all have a good weekend and hope you enjoy this one!
And now I finally know what it feels like
To risk everything and still survive
When you're standing on the battlefield
And all the pain is real
That's when you realize
That you must've done something right
'Cause you've never felt so alive ♪ ♫ ♪
