EMO KIDS

Dear Diary,
Mood - Apathetic.
My life is spiraling deathward.
I couldn't get enough money to go to the Bloodbook Romance Suffocate and Die concert.
That sucks, cause they play some of my favorite songs,
Like "Stab My Heart 'Cause I Love You" and "Rip Apart My Soul" and "Chorus: Stab me, rip, stab, stab."
And it doesn't help that I couldn't get my hair to do that flippy thing either...
Like that one guy from that band can do.
Some days.
I'm an Emo Kid
Nonconforming as can be
You'd be nonconforming too
If you looked just like me.
I have paint on my nails
And makeup on my face.
I'm almost emo enough
To start shaving my legs
Cause I feel real deep
When I'm dressing in drag
I call it "freedom, love, expression"
Most just call me a fag
Cause our dudes look like chicks,
And our chicks look like dykes,
Cause emo
Is one step
Below Transvestite!
Stop my breathing
And slit my throat...
I must be emo.
I don't jump around when I go to shows...
I must be emo.
I'm dark
And sensitive
With low self-esteem
The way I dress makes everyday
Feel like Halloween.
I have no real problems
But I like to make-believe.
I stole my sister's masquera
Now I'm grounded for a week!
Sulking
And writing poetry
Are my hobbies
I can't get through a Hawthorne Heights album
Without sobbing.
Girls keep breaking up with me
It's never any fun
They say they already have a pussy
They don't need another one.
Stop my breathing
And slit my throat...
I must be emo.
I don't jump around when I go to shows...
I must be emo.
Dye my hair
And polish on my toes...
I must be emo.
I play guitar and write suicide notes...
I must be emo.
My life is just a black abyss.
You know
It's just so dark
It's just suffocating me.
Grabbing me and holding me
And tightly squeezing...
Tighter than a pair of my little sister's jeans.
(Which look great on me, by the way)
When I'm depressed
I slit my wrists in every direction
Hearing someone get dumped
Gives me an erection
I write in a Live-journal
And wear thick-rimmed glasses
I tell my friends I hate black
And I cry during classes
I'm just a cheap imitation of goth
I'll read Catcher in the Rye
You can watch me jack off
I wear skin-tight clothes
While riding my bike
If I said I liked girls
I'd only be half-right.
I look like I'm dead
And just like a homo...
I must be emo.
Screw Xbox,
I play old school Nintendo...
I must be emo.
I like to whine and hit my parentals...
I must be emo.
Me and my friends all look like clones...
I must be emo.
My parents don't get me, you know? They think I'm gay just cause they saw me kissing a guy... well, a couple guys... but I mean, it's the two-thousands. Can two...or four dudes make out with each other without being gay? I mean, chicks dig that kind of thing anyways. I don't know, diary... I'm begining to think you're the only one that gets me. You're my only friend, diary.
