Here's a throwback
...to the olden days of grade six.
Crawling in my skin. These wounds they will not heal.
Fear is how I fall, confusing what is real.
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing.
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending.
Controlling, I can't seem...
To find myself again. My walls are closing in.
(without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before, so insecure.
Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me.
Distracting, reacting.
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection.
It's haunting how I can't seem...
- Linkin Park, Crawling
Now, I know what you people might say. "Linkin Park?! Tsk tsk. How 1990's." Well, I just realized, upon hearing this one song out of my 640+ songs on my playlist, that these guys are kinda emo. They're emo, and screamo. Maybe not uber populat, but it worked for their target audience of self-proclaimed angry 11-13 year-old teenage boys back then. *shrug* I like how Siu Tahm Guong Dong Wah makes a direct reference to Linkin Park when they talk about putting some "Leenkeen Pahk" as background music for a basketball fight caught on tape... Anyway, late starts are kinda fun.

Thoughts:
Apparently, livejournal and linkin park are the emo mascots of the Internet. At one of the forums I visit, whenever someone says something emo-y, one of the members goes "CRAAAAAAAAAWLING IIIN MY SKIIIIIIIIIINNNN."
LP may be 1990s, but its the most quoted band ive seen by far.
