i don't agree with the >>>>>>>>>>>> but i just like them more as a band

so much raw emotion, orchid come across as more cold to me

orchid's coldness is the accuracy of their aim

they're pure depression, read jay's lyrics, listen to his tone mixed with the cold, almost black metal riffs. the grind parts portray the bi-polar-esque rage of depression. idk if you've ever been in a long term relationship where the girl cheats on you and then leaves you for another guy. but like, i've been there and orchid is what got me through it. their music portrays that so well. it's that pure deep depression but it's uplifting via the empathic nature.

oh I get what they're doing, I'm just saying I prefer the raw brutal emotive feeling jeromes dream evokes in me :p

i relate to orchid much better, so like, i understand

jeromes dream just gives me this feeling of apocalyptic hopelessness

and just like that the year is gone is a good example of what i mean.

[quote]i look in the mirror and i can't recognize the reflection. this can't be me. i hate this person, but the mirror doesn't lie. i've lost sight of who i am and who you are. who we are is not the same. two sad, blank eyes staring back at me, begging for some understanding. the only thing that i can see is that i still love who i thought you were.[/quote]

word.

lolwut

it was to mappy's quoted post.

no i know what it was to

how does orchid relate to whiny types lmao

i dunno all that screaming its just waahhh

wut

idk their lyrics aren't that good too

lol

well post some that are well written and relevant to what mappy said

it's repetitious. i can't figure out how to let go. it's repetitious. i tried to find a way to say goodbye, but you weren't there. off on cloud nine. off on cloud nine. i cut off my arm, but it still didn't compare to the shock of losing you. then i woke up.

ok and ill post something that blows that out of the fucking water

The once beautiful flower has withered and gone
it is memory`s charnel vast, that I wepeth on
lifeless, this lonely heart swoons neath my breast
for my tears bring you back, not from silent rest

Lamentation and woe, peace never shall I know
Blood less bitter be than these tears brackish with sorrow
every promise ever born, now lay broken
false words are better left asleep, on thy lips, than spoken

see that's really prosey but it doesn't say anything to me

this is kind of a dumb argument since every single thing we're discussing is horribly subjective but w/e

idk you may like these but you've probably already heard it

cut this picture into you and me
burn it backwards kill this history
make it over make it stay away
or hate'll say the ending that love started to stay
there's a kid a floor below me saying brother can you spare
sunshine for a brother old man winter's in the air
walked me up a story asking how you are
told me not to worry you were just a shooting star
sweet adeline
sweet adeline
my clementine
sweet adeline
it's a picture perfect evening and i'm staring down the sun
fully loaded deaf and dumb and done
waiting for sedation to disconnect my head
or any situation where i'm better off then dead

but seriously these are some of my favorite lyrics i've found. i say we keep posting this is fun

Fuck your fashion show. Fuck what they all think. I saw your dreams for a second. Just one. I was scared, but seeing meant more than safety. And to follow me? That wasn't part of the dream.

when you make that face it's perfect
hold me so tight that my ribs break
so I can die in your arms
I've felt this way before
and I've said all of these words
hold me to your chest
because I need your heartbeat
since I can't look into your eyes
I don't deserve to anyway
and I know honesty is your weakness
and you know affection is mine
neither of us have healed
from past hurts
I can see it on your face
and you can hear it in my voice
all I have is this broken heart to offer you
so take it its yours
it's been broken beyond more breaking
so I could really use someone to rebuild

your chaos ain't me
it's just a hat that you put on
and i wore it for too long
and i hate to break your little heart
and chaos most definitely ain't you
no matter what your shirt says
buy a book
read up
i'm on every page

I got a 1000 Travels of Jawaharlal CD for free ages ago, but never listened to it until now. it's amazingly good. really cool Ebullition/Gravity emo with mid-'80s harDCore influences, like Swizz and Rites of Spring. so fucking tight.

1000 Travels of Jawaharlal <33333333333333 their album is perfect

oh and if you guys are talking about lyrics:

These knives are softer than broken dreams
Blood and tears are on the floor
I can't remember a time when I was good at something
I wear this tigersuit 'cause I'm a fuckin' lamb
Blood and tears are on the floor
I start to lick 'em
They're my daily bread.

fuck yes

I told the new me:
"Meet me at the bus station and hold a sign that reads:
'Today is the first day of the rest of your life'"
But the old me met me with a sign that read:
"Welcome back"
Who you are is not a function of where you are

plot twist

people who need people are the wretchedest in the world

she said I wish I was a man, and I said so do I

this hand on this gun to my head is my own

[I]and these are my demands[/I]

Mais qu'est-ce qu'on gagne à tenter de sauver sa peau?
À remplir ces pages, à retrousser les manches, à hurler plus fort et bien plus encore...?

gay as fuck what is that shit

That whisper, your curling razor, mistakenly wound around my tongue to squeeze some fucking truth from that wicked obsession, your obsession, where I can pass by. They do that when you're dead. Alive I could count the stars, and you counted the screams. So if you would please just hand me my ticket, I will go and join the ground. It was where I was in the first place.

yah austin i dont know what sort lyrics/poetry you like, but it feels like you think literature ended 200 years ago

when i die 1000 birds will

fly out of

my mouth

there is NO HAPPY HERE

only sadness

[QUOTE=Iluvatar;18150933]there is NO HAPPY HERE[/QUOTE]

fuk ya good one

I wanna be in a motorcycle gang-
grene and mean, and fucked up all the time.
Picture me on the back of a Harley
leather-clad and bad, and driving 55

I'm going nowhere, I'd rather go somewhere instead.

I wanna see things I'll never get to see
foreign bronze, Klingons, naked girls with purple eyes.
Yeah look at me, sad and low and lonely
dead-end job, a slob, and fucked up all the time.

I'm going nowhere, I'd rather go somewhere instead
I'm gonna blow a hole, through the back of my head.

Don't cry
Don't cry
When I
When I
Say goodbye
Don't cry
Don't, don't cry.

fukn rules

that shit is me
