Indie kids hate emo kids, right?

"Seventy Times 7"

Back in school they never taught us
what we needed to know
Like how to deal with despair
of someone breakin your heart
For twelve years I've held it all together
but a night like this is beggin to pull me apart
I played it quiet left you deep in conversation
I felt uncool and hung out around the kitchen
I remember I kept thinking
that I know you never would
And now I know I want to kill you
like only a best friend could

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to...

As if it happening wasn't enough
I got to go and write a song
just to remind myself how bad it sucked
Ignore the sun, covers over my head
Wrote a message on my pillow that says
"Jesse, stay asleep in bed"
Don't apologize (I hope you choke and die!)
Search your shelf for something which to hang yourself
They say you need to pray
if you want to go to heaven
But they don't tell you what to say
when your whole life has gone to Hell!

Everyone's caught on to everything you do
Everyone's caught on to...
(and I can't let you let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to everything you do
(and I can't let you let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to...

So is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids
Have another drink and drive yourself home
I hope there's ice on all the roads
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt
and again when your head goes through the windshield

Is that what you call tact?
You're as subtle as a brick in the small of my back
So let's end this call and end this conversation
And is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with
Cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
when you say "best friends" means friends forever

Is that what you call a getaway?!!
Tell me what you got away with!!
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish!!
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids!!
Have another drink and drive yourself home!!
I hope there's ice on all the roads!!
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt
then when your head goes through the windshield!!

(I can't let you let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to everything you do
(and I can't let you let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to...
(I can't let you let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to everything you do
(and I can't let you let me down again)
Everyone's caught on to...

this is a song from a emo band (maybe a snatch of the song not sure)but review it and you decide i think it is stuupid.

Those are great lyrics in themselves. Here are some other ones:

Your as subtle as a brick in the small of my back? Who makes that analogy? Most people dont know what that is then to compare it to someone.

Cause you left the frays from the ties you severed
when you say "best friends" means friends forever

Left the frays from the ties you severed. It just shows his songwriting intelligence. You have to admit that lyrically this song was well put together if you like emo or not. If you don't think this song is well put together then you just dont like it because of your prejudice to emo and you need to rethink how you veiw emos.

Go

You say stand up for your rights

But you fall for all their lies

You Claim to know the truth

While wearing a cheap disguise

Who are you to judge us, don't tell

Us how to live our lives

The real world's outside your door,

It's gonna open your eyes

Go..

Real life is coming gonna wipe

The smile from your face

You'll be left chocking, gagging

On reality's bitter taste

Won't talk down to others when

You're living on your knees

Slowly the hate sets in it

Consumes you like a disease

.

Oh your failure (failure) is my revenge.

Life's gonna catch up with you in the end

.

this world you've built is fragile,

It's all gonna come crashing down

And when your world collapses,

I only pray that I'm around

To see the look on your face,

The hurt, hollow, and blank stare

Of a person who just realized

That no one ever cared

Hey dillon here are some lyrics and i didnt steal your "tactic" you just say that because i shot down your gay emo crap!

dillon and i are arguing about if emo is a part of American culture.
it is not it is shunned and it probably came from europe. please, not many great bands came from europe except the sex pistols.

From now on if you have anything to say about how crapy emo is email me because dillon will like attack you with emo gayness!

it is not it is shunned and it probably came from europe.

nice. whatever happened to research?

And what about U2 man?

dillon says he knew the lostprophets before they went big. that is crap

my girls on the pill, so I can drill, and I don't have to kill, an unborn child, cuz that's buck wild.

Dude, U2 are totally emo. They are proto-emo. I'd say Live is the first real emo band. You try listening to "Lightening Crashes" without getting a lump in your throat (or somewhere [like, maybe your crotch!]).

P.S. the unseen rule!

As it is I managed to never enter the store once in my adolescence though I am aware of why some (indie kids?) are so derisive of it.
