    Wait is that possible?

    an emo song thats anti-emo?
    yes.

    ok, there's this sing you might or might not know. its stuck in my head.

    its really really emo, but the lyrics aren't.
    its called "The Way She Feels"
    its by Between the Trees, you might of heard of them, idk.

    here's the lyrics:

    "She's upset
    Bad day
    Heads for the dresser drawer to
    drive her pain away
    Nothing good can come of this.
    She opens it theres nothing there
    is only left over tears
    "Mom and dad had no right" she screams
    as the anger runs down both of her cheeks.

    Then she closed her eyes
    and found relief in a knife
    the blood flows as she cries

    All alone the way she feels
    Left alone to deal with all the pain-drenched sorrow relief
    Bite the lip just forget the bleeding

    Curled up she's on the floor
    relief left her, she had hoped for something more
    from it
    He leans down to comfort her
    She is weeping and he
    wraps his arms around
    and around and around and...
    The deeper you cut
    the deeper I hurt
    The deeper you cut
    it only gets worse

    Now she's slowly opening...
    new eyes...

    Then she opened her eyes
    and found relief in His life
    and put down her knives

    Then she opened her life
    and found relief through His eyes
    and put down
    she put down her life "

    its about a girl who cutts and how she finds God and "He" changes her life.

    your thoughts?

    So your question is, can an emo song be anti-emo?
    Well if it is, I think it is possible. I don't want to write a long post but it's just a song that's about an emo person who changes.
    Well that's my opinion.

    Its a christian band...

    Oh it is? My bad, didn't know that.

    Actually, I think it's a rather inspiring poem. The song suggests that life can be better with God.

    That song.. I've heard it many times.
    Is very cliche.. and the melody annoys me.
    But, it has nothing to do with "Emo." An emo genre of music differs from a christian genre of music. You cannot have Anti Emo if you cannot have Anti Rap, Anti Country. It all falls into it either being a Rap or Country song. The lyrics do not make the genre.

    And emo is not a person. As cliche as that sounds. It has been a genre for a few years now. Before it got all out of hand.

    I know, it sounds emo.
    not the lyrics, the song itself.
    but the lyrics are anti-emo. or non-emo, or w/e.

    I think this thread oughtta be locked for it translates to, even if not intended to be, advertising a poem.

    Dood, its a song by a band that doesn't even have a P&Q account.

    it shouldn't even matter.
