Expressing your feelings, one lyric at a time.
Sometimes lyrics are just so damn relatable that you can't help but post an emo Facebook status containing one or two of them. We're all guilty of it. These days, it's nothing but Twenty One Pilots but let's hear it for the old classics that shaped our emo hearts and perfectly illustrated our moods back in the day.
1) "If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget the world."

If you never had the lyrics to 'Chasing Cars' in your profile as a teen, did you ever even exist in the first place?
2) "Times Square can't shine as bright as you, I swear it's true."

3) "If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks, then I'll follow you into the dark."

The PERFECT insult to that boy who has been engaging in a flirtationship with you but ignoring your texts at the same time.

The lyrics to 'I Bet That You Look Good On The Dancefloor' were your actual jam back in the day. And they left just enough mystery to ensure all your friends would be dying to know who you were talking about the next day at school.
10) "I'M NOT O-FUCKING-KAY!"

Is 'Sugar We're Going Down' the most Facebook status ready song of all time or what? So many iconic lyrics.

We would literally bet every single penny we own that you had at least ONE lyric from Mr Brightside on your profile at some point in your teenage life. Are we right? Of course we are.
