Question by : What emo song would you consider to have the best lyrics and why?
I am not talking about sound nor sound quality. I am talking solely about lyrics. It can be any form of emo. But I am wanting to find good emo songs with quality lyrics. What makes those lyrics quality. If it is because of a certain reason, explain that reason.
BQ: Any bands you wanna reccomend?

My Chemical Romance is a really good band and put alot of meaning into their songs.
Personally i love the song “Famous Last Words” by them, the whole point being ‘dont be afraid to live life because you never know whats going to happen or when ur gonna die.’ While it sounds kind of morbid, to me it is so true. The chorus is my favorite though “I am not afraid to walk this world alone” to me that just says so much. Don’t be afraid to be alone, you have to be strong.
I also love the lyrics for the song “Riptide” by Sick Puppies.
Basicly its about living your own life the way you want to, don’t let someone else tell u how to live it, especially someone who seems like they cant even take care of themselves.
Another song, “Life is Beautiful” by Sixx: A.M.
This song really means alot to me, to me it is saying you have to experience the bad in order to truly understand the good. You have to open your eyes and accept that while things go wrong, you choke, people lie, and there is death, You can still breathe, there is still truth and there is always life. So even when ur at a funeral, don’t cry, because it just shows how life is beautiful.
Sounds kind of cheesy but oh well.
the song “Not Enough” by Our Lady Peace.
Its a really mellow song, and while the lyrics make me sad, its a good kind of sad. The guy is trying his hardest to support a girl who is just getting out of deppression, telling her that even when those voices try to say “your not strong” dont listen because u really are. But in the end, even though he would do anything, it seems like its not enough. Sad but inspiring at the same time
Well there are four songs….Hope you like them

I agree with Kasey, My Chemical Romance is awesome, it’s just what your looking for the lyrics have good meaning and I don’t know one person who doesn’t like one song by them, well not counting my dad lmao.
And er, they’re not really ‘emo’ in style or sound, but Mayday Parade is freaking awesome.
All their songs have meaning, fast or slow beats.
I suggest ‘When You Get Home You’re So Dead’ by them, or ‘The Silence’ but you’ll find that ALL of their songs are awesome. SO YES ‘MAYDAY PARADE’ I promise they’re just what you want in lyric quality.
I like Skillet- Would it Matter.
I don’t have to explain why if you’ve heard it.. it explains itself.
Well i think it does anyway
I would have to say Funeralopolis by Electric Wizard. The lyrics are very heart warming, and have a lot of meaning in them.
