this is a song I wrote about self hate (wow) anxiety and depression (omg) black people (that's offensive) fat people (ew gross) narcissistic spoiled people (fuck those guys) and how i'm worse than all of them combined (crowd awws)

lyrics

do you remember the last time you said you loved yourself? probably not cause you forgot ever saying it to anyone else. where's the sense of propriety being a slave to anxiety? you can't keep your dignity with your own mind kicking you in the teeth. red feather falling on your head, you keep it safe underneath your bed, hoping one day a phoenix will arise and set your bed on fire (a future too admired) and take you with it. i think it's fine that i'm losing hope, cause i'll send my middle finger in an envelope to your mom; i hope she likes the stamps because i don't. Jackie Robinson was a quitter! skin soap needed for a little spring clean, the curves of the self-effacing "prom queen" needs to scrub underneath the folds… i wish she had hands, but i like love handles to hold. stop being sad. start being grateful. all the things you have, you didn't have to work for. there's no telling what you'll think in a week, if you'll lie to your friends about the things that you see so don't make assumptions, they're all based on nothing good. so eat your veggies, "be" an ""artist,"" ring in the new year, focus on being selfless, keeping friends and keeping promises.

White Eagle
by Heccra

Heccra is one of the most interesting artists in emo today, and his fresh take on the genre, blending elements of post-hardcore, prog/metal into it, as well as cool and weird production makes me smile aches

just married
by glocca morra

These guys are a huge influence on me, stylistically. Great angry vocals (shared throughout the band) enough twinkles to light the night sky, & some of the catchiest hooks ever. WATCH MY BODY DIEEEEEE aches
