your father's son
alucard - castlevania
i call this home - saint saviour
I call this home / But there's nothing for me here / But there's still love and it's intense / I walk alone / 'Cause I don't feel free / But I still love - it don't make sense / I'm moving out, 'cause I don't care for the scenery / The sun don't shine any more for me at home / I'll write about the times I had that were dear to me / In a town where all of the spring birds have flown
axe to grind - bastille
Breaking the silence like I'm bursting at the seams / So many stifled thoughts and long-forgotten dreams / Scream hallelujah, I can almost taste reprieve / Your iron rule has often had me on my knees / You better sharpen up, you better sharpen up / 'Cause all you have is your axe to grind / Keep on talking to yourself, 'cause no one needs to hear the words you reel off / Keep on talking to yourself, 'cause you're gonna have to swing that axe 'round here
anathema - 21 pilots
You will never know what's behind my skull / So won't you say goodnight so I can say goodbye? / And you will never understand what I believe / So won't you say goodnight so I can say goodbye? / Haven't you taken enough from me? / Won't you torture someone else's sleep? / I'm caught underwater and I'm falling farther / My heart's getting harder, I'm calling my father / Am I screaming to an empty sky? / One half of my heart is free / The other half of my heart's asleep
black eyes - radical face
And I said, "this life ain’t no love song," while I marched on blindly / And my knuckles dragged across the walls / And the birds up there mock me and the scenery’s turned wicked / And your name is trapped beneath my tongue / All of the roads are one now, each choice is the same / All the roads, they are one now, each choice is the same / I won’t show my hands now, I know this ain’t a game / All the roads, they are one now, each choice is… / Take a step, take another step, take another step, not a care for where they fall / You’ve burned me now one too many times / My thoughts are the cold kind, I’ve got storm clouds that are brewing behind my eyes / And my heart will be blacker than your eyes when I’m through with you
heel turn 2 - the mountain goats
Get stomped like a snake, lie down in the dirt / Cling to my convictions even when I get hurt / Drift down into the new dark light /
Without any reservations / You found my breaking point, congratulations / Spent too much of my life now trying to play fair / Throw my better self overboard, shoot at him when he comes up for air / Come unhinged, get revenge / I don’t want to die in here / I don’t want to die in here / Let all the trash rain down from way up in the rafters / I’m walking out of here in one piece, don’t care what comes after / Drive the wedge, torch the bridge / I don’t want to die in here / I don’t want to die in here
the wolf - phildel
And you once said, “I wish you dead, you sinner” / I’ll never be more than a wolf at your door for dinner / And if I see you ‘round like a ghost in my town, you liar / I’ll leave with your head / Oh, I’ll leave you for dead, sire / You were sharp as a knife to get me / You were a wolf in the night to fetch me back / The wishes I’ve made are too vicious to tell / Everyone knows that I'm going to hell… / And if it’s true, I’ll go there with you
satin in a coffin - modest mouse
You were laying on the carpet / Like you're satin in a coffin / You said, "Do you believe what you're sayin'?" / Yeah, right now, but not that often / Are you dead or are you sleepin'? / Are you dead or are you sleepin'? / Are you dead or are you sleepin'? / God, I sure hope you are dead
outer scorpion squadron - the mountain goats
If you really want to conjure up a ghost / Cultivate a space for the things that hurt you most / Stake out your position, let your armor fall / Stay put 'till they find you, it won't take long at all / Rake the sands until they surface / Up they come, gone translucent / They're coming up no matter what / Ghosts of my childhood, stay with me, if you will / Find a place where there's water, hold you under 'till you're still / Rake the sands until they surface / Don't let anybody call them ugly...
oh my god - teen suicide
You follow me / Everywhere that i go / You’re in my dreams / Oh my god / You’re haunting me / You’re in the air / You’re in my head / I can’t be still / Even in my bed / Oh my god / You’re in my head
please just stay dead - nicolle dollinger
Wrap you in yarn and grass / Embalm you with milk / Lay you to rest / In cardboard lined with silk / Wildfires have been eating you / Inside my head / Trying to smoke you out / Or burn you alive in it / This time please just stay dead
posthumous release - coma cinema
I've never known someone who wasn't lonely / No one has ever known me / No one / Your old man says he's living in hell / Well, you checked yourself in / You can check yourself out
