WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

and now im depressed.

Posted over 2 years ago
very few bands have an effect on me emotionally but as i was driving back from athens georgia a couple days ago i put in a CD of assorted songs by the Mountain Goats that my friend and fellow mogger jen gave me. i was driving (extremely slowly due to traffic) through some form of hellish weather when the song no children came on. ive been horribly depressed ever since. i kept listening to the track over and over and then i started really listening to the lyrics of other songs on the CD. just to think that a song could really put you in a horrible state of depression, that is insane. the really messed up part is that i cant stop listening to it so i start to feel even worse. god, i feel really miserable. here are the lyrics, sorry i dont have an MP3 of it on hand.no childrenI hope that our few remaining friendsgive up on trying to save us.I hope we come out with a fail-safe plotto piss off the dumb few that forgave us.I hope the fences we mendedfall down beneath their own weight.And I hope we hang on past the last exit,I hope it's already too late.And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from heresomeday burns down.And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away,and I never come back to this town again.In my life, I hope I lie,and tell everyone you were a good wife.And I hope you die,I hope we both die.I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow;I hope it bleeds all day long.Our friends say it's darkest before the sun rises;we're pretty sure they're all wrong.I hope it stays dark forever,I hope the worst isn't over.And I hope you blink before I do, and I hope I never get sober.And I hope when you think of me years down the line,you can't find one good thing to say.And I'd hope that if I found the strength to walk out,you'd stay the hell out of my way.I am drowning.There is no sign of land.You are coming down with me,hand in unlovable hand.And I hope you die,I hope we both die.

  2. etcvisitor says didnt someone do that to you already in mog wars? actually i think that "i hope someone stabs me in the eye, with a dull knife or a spoon" was one of the lyrics that almost made it into this one... or atleast it should have been considered.

  3. kristiana says I'm pretty sure mogger lambcurry... (who hasn't been around in forever) posted this song before, or maybe on a post about love songs or something? Yep, I always remembered this one.

  4. etcvisitor says maybe lambcurry listened to this song too many times and got too depressed to mog.

  8. Anna says And you felt like unleashing those lyrics upon us because...? I always knew you were a selfish guy, Henry, you never cared about other people's feelings. I can't believe I wasted the best years of my life with you.
