What song(s) describes society the best in your opinion?

[Silent_cries]

I'm curious to hear your suggestions. Mine is mad world by Jules Grey I think, but there is probably better out there tbh.

 

[Life_and_Death]

wash it all away by ffdp

I've given up
On society
Up on my family
Up on your social disease

I've given up
On the industry
Up on democracy
Done with all your hypocrisy

All of the chaos
And all of the lies
I hate it

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

Jim Henson rants with himself about how it feels when a woman breaks a man's heart.

I agree. In my opinion, this describes society and the world perfectly.

 

[Napoleon]

'nuff said.

Yeah, I guess it does. I relate so much to the "The dreams where I'm dying are the best I've ever had" line too. I wish every day that I could just have a cardiac arrest or something and just die instantly not having to worry about SI ever again and also making it easier on everybody around me who loves me. If only it was that easy :/

Same, I wish that I could just drop dead as well. I'm just so done with life.

"All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere"

This describes my peers who are advancing in their careers. Little do they know they're just becoming slaves to capitalism…

True, so true! I'm going to be honest, I don't rly know what capitalism is and neither do I care coz not even politics can save us at this point. We're definitely all slaves to society though, and most of us can never meet the sky high standards of society either. It's all just an endless cycle of the powerful shoving the weak down into the dirt over and over. Call me crazy if you want, but if I could, I'd make the entirety of humanity go extinct, including myself ofc. Although maybe I'd allow myself to live for a little bit after extinction just so I could explore the world for a little lol.

people just ain't no good---nick cave from the album 'boatmans call'

'people they ain't no good
I think that's well understood
you see it everywhere you look
people just ain't no good'

------it is worth wading through that album for the often beautiful lyrics..

 

[DarkRange55]

Merrilyn Manson's discography - There's a few things that helped me get through my teenage years. Marilyn Manson. Which I still like Manson. I mean if you look at his songs there's a lot of word play, there's a lot allusions to historical events and philosophy and stuff like that. But if you're like a teenager and you hear that shit and you're like even the least bit above average intelligence and filled with aggression then wow that is just like he becomes your messiah I mean that shit is incredible and he becomes your father figure because no one else around you can possibly be. So that was one thing that got me through.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

A song that describes the duality of the average male mindset.
