3. Taking Back Sunday - Tell All Your Friends

I could sit here and defend myself for loving this album, maybe tell you about their deep lyrics, or just worm my way out of this one with the excuse that it's my daughter's album. Truth is, I like it. I have emo in my soul, what can I tell you. It’s from all those years of listening to Depeche Mode and wearing black. That shit never leaves you. There’s always a “woe is me” tear waiting to be shed. Always a poem in your past that never leaves, like words scrawled in the margin of a math notebook "my heart has been turned black as a night without the moon. you have torn my soul from body and i shall never feel anything again. i cry tears that are black as tar. woe. woe is me. woe, i say. i hate you and i want you to die." Wait, is that I want you to die or me? I get so confused. Maybe I was goth, not emo.



Favorite song: You're So Last Summer (simply because it's an ode to passive aggressiveness)
