I used to occasionally post videos/lyrics on Facebook as catharsis to convey my feelings of the day, or week, or what have you. I don't use Facebook anymore, so I've made this thread.

Use it when you need it. I need it now.

The Cure - End

I think I've reached that point
Where giving up and going on
Are both the same dead end to me
Are both the same old song





The Cure - Sinking

I am slowing down
As the years go by
I am sinking
So I trick myself
Like everybody else

The secrets I hide
Twist me inside
They make me weaker

So I trick myself
Like everybody else
I crouch in fear and wait
I'll never feel again

If only I could remember
Anything at all

[allegro]

My job is killing me.

[Ryan]

"So how did I end up
So deeply involved in
The very existence
I planned on avoiding?"

And I can't answer

[LaneSax]

Suddenly I found that I'd lost my way in this city
The streets and the thousands of colours all bleed into one
I fall down, heaven wont help me
I call out, no one would hear
All of a sudden I'd lost my way out of this city

Stand tall
Stand proud
Every beginning is breaking it's promise
I'm having trouble just finding some soul in this town

[ZeroSum]

I feel the top of the roof come off
Kill everybody there
And I'm watching all the stars burn out, trying to pretend that I care.

But I didn't, no-one ever does, and I would, no-one ever will

Can't you see it's all flown out of my hands and our clothes are all too often ripped and our teeth are all too often gnashed and it lasts as long as it possibly can but I just don't accept this.

I just don't accept this at all.

Faces sweaty, arms and legs, what a glorious set of stairs we make.

We kill everyone with arrowheads, arrowheads, arrowheads. Thank god that's over.

[Ryan]

Danzig - Thirteen





Bad luck wind been blowin' on my back
I was born to bring trouble wherever I'm at
With the number '13' tattooed on my neck
That ink starts to itch
Black gon' turn to red

I was born in the soul of misery
And I never had me a name
They just give me a number when I was young

Got a long line of heartache
I carry it well
The list of lives I've broken
Reach from here to Hell
And a bad luck wind been blowin' on my back

Pray you don't look at me
And I pray I don't look back

I was born in the soul of misery
And I never had me a name
They just give me a number when I was young

Found me with a preacherman confessin' all I done
Catch me with the devil playing 21
And a bad luck wind been blowin' on my back
I was born to bring trouble wherever I'm at

I was born in the soul of misery
And I never had me a name
They just give me a number when I was young
When I was young
When I was young
When I was young

[UnjollyIrishman]

I'm very close to leaving my cesspit of a school and going to college, so...

Faith No More - Get Out
What if there's no more fun to have,
And all I've got is what I had,
What if I have forgotten how,
Cut my losses and get out now

Deftones - Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)
Now drive me far - away, away, away,
FAR away,
I don't care where just FAR,

Pharrell Williams - Happy
Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof,
Because I'm happy,
Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth,
Because I'm happy,

Ren and Stimpy - Happy Happy Joy Joy
Happy Happy Joy Joy,
Happy Happy Joy Joy,

Frank Sinatra - New York, New York
Start spreading the news,
I'm leaving today,

Pointer Sisters - I'm So Excited
I'm so excited,
and I just can't hide it,

[Ryan]

I've been feeling exactly like this song, word-for-word, for the past few days.






Every breath I take, I take in vain
Work my ass off for nothing, nothing to gain
In this fractured life I'm submersed in pain

I've tried day in day out again
Just to find a means to an end
As my mind crumbles and descends again

It doesn't make sense living today
Doesn't matter even if you pray
I just wanna lay here and let myself die

But I think there's much more to the truth
Sadistic ways to love and abuse
An end that's always long and overdue

Malfunction in the society
And I totally lost my sobriety

As I take this pill I wave goodbye

It doesn't make sense living today
Doesn't matter even if you pray
I just wanna lay here and let myself die

I was born from a bloody womb
Into a world that's just so fucking cruel
And I need to get away, I need to get away from you

Emotions that are way too fragile
Inner conflicts collide in my mind

It doesn't make sense living today
Doesn't matter even if you pray

I just wanna lay here and let myself die

[Ryan]

"Life Fades Away"

Lyrics written by Glenn Danzig





My time has come, the clouds are calling
December wind has come my way
And now I feel the will falling
All at once, it's too late
Life fades away

The night is my wake
All thoughts slip away
And even though I must leave you
Remember I love you

I'll always be in your memory
And I will always be with you when I'm gone

Fade, life fades away
Oh yea, yea, yea, yea
Life fades away

I'm tired of tomorrow
Lost for today
I long to be
At peace forever
My eternity
And even though I will miss you
I must leave you

Fade, life fades away
Oh yea, yea, yea, yea
Life fades away

So please forgive me
And try not to cry
I long to be at peace forever more
Forever more
Oh yea, yea, yea, yea
Yeah, yea, yea, yea, yea
Yeah, yea, yea, yea, yea
Life fades away
Life fades away
Life fades away
Away

[somethingelse]

Never speak a word again
I will crawl away for good

I will move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear

No thought was put into this
Always knew it would come to this

Things have never been so swell
I have never failed to fail

[implanted_microchip]

"Here comes Saturday night and you're only making plans to stay inside"

[Millionaire]

"Hey, yeah, I'm the one that you wanted
Hey, yeah, I'm your superbeast"

[Henrie_Schnee]

For a golden girl knows when he's kissed her
It's the kiss of death from Mister Goldfinger
Pretty girl, beware of his heart of gold
This heart is cold

[Jinsai]

"Newspapers shoot their letters at me
I'm alone at last, with every other me"

The Cure - Play





Day after day
I let you down
Promise you to change
Then change my mind
And every time I promise you
It will all be fine
It won't be like this next time

The days you wait
Turn into years
Always wait
Helpless tears
Hopeless nights
And all the fears
It will always be like this

You give me everything you have
Hoping it will someday be enough
To melt my heart
To make me fall in love

Day after day
I let you down
Promise you to change it all
Then change my mind
And every time I promise you
Soon be fine
It won't be like this next time

But tonight we play I think
The final act
I push too hard
And you crack
Walk away
Don't look back
This time you've really gone

You give me everything you have
Knowing it can never be enough
My heart's too old
Too hard
Too cold
For your love

[Kid Charlemagne]

"Fed up with all that LSD.
Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamines.
Late nights with warm, warm whiskey.
I guess the good times they were all just killing me."

Morrissey - I Knew I Was Next





So what do you think I am?
And how precisely could you tell?
A decent skin is all I am
People think badly of me
But one day maybe they'll praise?

Oh, but meanwhile
I knew I was next and I didn't mind
Here I offer you my life for any debts you're due
And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you

The shadows of trees
They reach to me
They know a decent skin is all I am
People think badly of me
But when I'm in my grave maybe they'll praise?

But meanwhile
I knew I was next and I didn't mind
Here I offer you my life for any debts you're due
And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you

Oh, but meanwhile
I knew I was next and I didn't mind
When you've been slapped around
Then one more slap can't hurt you

And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can do to hurt you

I knew I was next and I didn't mind
When you've been slapped around
Then one more slap can't hurt you
And when you've been down for the very last time
There is nothing anyone can say to hurt you

[Ryan]

Depeche Mode - Waiting For The Night



There is a sound in the calm
Someone is coming to harm
I press my hands to my ears
It's easier here just to forget fear
And when I squinted
The world seemed rose-tinted
And angels appeared to descend
To my surprise
With half-closed eyes
Things looked even better
Than when they were open

[thefragile_jake]

"One more week in this apartment.
One more week of being haunted by the ghost of what should've been."



Owen - "The Ghost of What Should've Been"

[Shadaloo]

We forgive as we forget
As the day is long
As the day is long
Rain from heaven

[Frozen Beach]

They say
“Oh, lord, the devil went down
To a deep, dark lake, where my body lay drowning
Held me under the sea
And I point to the river like the ocean was my body.”

[Kid Charlemagne]

I'm sorry, Mama, but I've been drinking again.
Me and the old man got us a head start on the weekend,
And rest assured, tonight I'm going to be in Kevin's basement with all my friends,
provided we can get, get our lazy asses down to Bottle King by ten.

And the walk home is going to be a real shit show.
I'll be picking up half-smoked cigarette butts all up and down Rock Road,
And then to throw up in the warm glow of the traffic light.
But I'm gonna put the devil inside to sleep if it takes all night.

So let's get fucked up, and let's pretend we're all okay.
And if you've got something that you can't live with,
Save it for another day, all right?
Save it for another day.

I'm sorry, Mama, but expect a call from the neighbors tonight.
All of my asshole buddies are coming over and they're feeling a little too all right.
I'm sick and tired of everyone in this town being so goddamn uptight.
But don't you worry, I'll do all the talking when they turn on the flashing lights.

When I'm an old man, I can be the quiet type,
and I can go without a moment of fun for the rest of my life.
I can read a good book, and I can be in bed by ten,
and I can get up early, go to work and come home, and start it all over again.

But while we're young, boys, everybody raise your glasses high,
Singing, 'Here's to the good times, here's to the home team.
Kiss the good times goodbye, oh yeah,
Kiss the good times goodbye.'


I need a timeout, I need an escape from reality,
Or else I need eternal darkness and death, I need an exit strategy.
down in North Carolina, I could have been a productive member of society,
But these New Jersey cigarettes and all they require have made a fucking junkie out of me.

So give me a Guinness, give me a Keystone Light,
Give me a kegger on a Friday night.
Give me anything but another year in exile.

I need a whiskey, I need a whiskey right now.
God knows how many times I've said this before,
But I really don't feel like doing this anymore.

So hey, Andy, let's turn into dirty old men,
Close down the bar every night at the Glen Rock Inn.
Talk about our grandkids as we stroke our grey bears.
Funny we're still doing carbombs after all of these years.

And I know there are bicycles waiting to ride,
But I could swear I heard voices from the other side, saying,
'Wait until you see the whites of their eyes.'

And now that I'm older, I look back and say,
'What the fuck was it for anyway?'
For those dreams are lying in the still of the grave -
What the fuck were they for anyway?
So let it be on a stretcher if I get carried away -
What the fuck was it for anyway?

- "Theme from Cheers" by Titus Andronicus

[Ryan]

My life has fallen apart so many times I lost count.

[Ryan]

Stare long into the mouth of abandonement
the trip down's a long one

it seems
the harder you try to hold something in your arms, the quicker it dies

[somethingelse]

Left with a trace of all that was
And all that could have been

A Pale Horse Named Death - Cold Dark Mourning





As we stand around your grave
Tears are falling as we pray
With red roses in our hands
We lay them down and say goodbye my friend

Anyone you ever lost
Goes up to the stars above
Everyone has gone away
They have passed away

From the womb we go to our tomb
A temporary place we all leave soon
I remember when we all laughed
All I have left are memories of past

Anyone you ever lost
Goes up to the stars above
Everyone has gone away
They have passed away

Cold dark mourning, freezes me
Empty table, empty seats
I am the last of my friends
As I wait to meet them, meet them again

Anyone you ever lost
Goes up to the stars above
Everyone has gone away
They have passed away

Hail Mary, full of grace, forgive me

Cold dark mourning has taken me
Cold dark mourning is freezing me

[october_midnight]

It's the remix to Ignition.
Hot and fresh out tha kitchen.
Mama rollin' that body.
Got every man in here wishin'.

[Kid Charlemagne]

Girl we off in this jeep
Foggin windows up
Blastin the radio
In the back of my truck
Bouncin up and down
Stroke it round and round
To the remix
We just thuggin it out
