what makes lyrics "emo" i wanna know
if you read paul beaers lyrics, they are pretty "emo"
so is alot of real hardcore
and by real i dont mean dudes yelling about being straight edge or stabbed in the back | Personally, I think
the whininess factor is what makes lyrics emo. It's one thing to write a song about how you hate the world for fucking you over day after day or about
getting your heart broken and stomped on, it's completely different to cry about what a victim you are or to try to win girls to your side by writing
songs about how they're helpless things that need to be protected from us cavemen. |
