🎵 Monthly Song Challenge 🎵

[morelikeasong]

No song prompt today and no song limit. Sometimes a song is all we’ve got, but we’ve still got that. Hugging all of you tight today.

…unless I’m not. In which case, get the fuck out of my thread today. Please and thank you

Couldn’t find a good version of “fuck it, man” but the New Bomb Turks seem like a good fit for today.

To everyone hurting with me today

All right then. I'm pulling out the Christmas tunes...

see through you like cellophane
you watch the world complain
but you do it anyway
who am I to say

if there's one thing that makes me sick
it's when someone tries to hide behind politics
i wish that time could go by fast
somehow they manage to make it last

 

[Whiskeyjack]

I have no music in me today.
Maybe that will change later.
Maybe not.

Emilyn Brodsky - Ebony (Bread Helps)

“Bread helps when you drink too much
Bread helps with anxiety
Bread helps with meat and cheese
Bread helps when men leave
Bread helps like women's words
Bread helps though it sounds absurd”

 

[vagrantx]

I have no music in me today.
Maybe that will change later.
Maybe not.

I hope you find that voice inside you later on. It's cathartic. To scream and shout and wail. It's the foundation of the punk movement. The foundation of the people. The foundation which was stolen and on which monuments to little men have been built. They sit up there and shriek orders in their tiny voices and try to direct us. But they pull up the ladder behind them. Nobody else is allowed. It's them vs us. It's fucked. It's fucked. It's fucked.

build me up
tear me down
like a skryscraper
build me up
and tear down these joining walls
so they can't climb at all

I wish I could remember for sure who introduced me to this song here in the thread. It's been in my back pocket ever since, a reminder that collectively we still hold more power than the few.

The Coup - The Guillotine
