What song or music video has really got you thinking?

[GAMEchief]

I love the concept album What to Do When You Are Dead by Armor for Sleep. It's all about why you shouldn't kill yourself. Beautiful work of art, imo.

Songs by the Gazette, all pertaining to a profound expression of constant human suffering.


----
the Gazette - Burial Applicant

Spoiler:

The shadow of the subject
Hate and terror scream together,
Seeing the peeling love
Why must this body rot as well?

Die...

In the darkness that laughs in red,
The foolish words that were spilled.
Every time a breath was released
Is very alike to that "hate"

Under the creaks that rain upon me
The trembling won't stop
I will break my ties with the pain that
I can only understand with my mind

the Gazette - Without a Trace

Spoiler:

"Burying your breath in the still season,
You, who waited for help, dissovled into nothingness.
The withered song you cannot hear anymore...
It's crying without exception.


...

Burying your breath in the still season,
You, who waited for help, dissovled into nothingness.
I can't make my raised voice retreat so you can't hear it anymore...
I've come to realize that it is my sin.

...

My tears that fell for my loss
Will also flow when I endure this agony.
Just like everyone else who deserted you,
I close my eyelids.

My body that's entwined within the spiral
Is slowly, slowly twisting.
In my throat, there are thousands of questions that are like thorns;
I'm asking, "What can I save?"
My future is dying right before my eyes..."

the Gazette - Distress and Coma

Spoiler:

What I want to forget, is the pain that is too white.
I tell myself that I believe.
The scar won't disappear.

In the dream that has become thin, the unawakening reality is reflected.
If you will answer that sadness is only the truth,
It's okay if I get hurt...

Don't forget
The pulse that is attracted to you who knows pain.
Right here

"Good night"

Dance, dance, until I fall asleep I dance
The tears that do not stop.
Every time I close my heart, telling myself that there is nothing there, it is about to wither.
To the dream that has become thin, I sing once more.
If you will answer that sadness is only oneself,
It's okay if I get hurt.

"Good bye" is blooming on the dream that is supposed to end.

There's this semi-occult group the goes by DKMU that put out some tracks.

Spoken word, quite profound and chaotic.
