Its Fridayevening and we are going nowhere.
Post music for robots.
This song is so true it hurts.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVB7UMwvlAo
i have dreamt about what it's like to die
and i saw myself becoming shadows again
just like i did when i was a kid
i saw my bones crack open and all the things i've been hiding from you spill out
all the secrets that i never thought i'd tell anyone about
i am warm and i am bored and i am drifting through this place
it's no better or worse than anything else that's ever happened to me
but i wish that i'd never met a lot of the people that i've met
not because i don't like them but because i only let them down
and when you disappoint everyone all the time it's hard not to want to die
constantly i feel this weird and shameful feeling
like im being watched by a thousand glowing, vengeful eyes
behind one way mirrors in public bathrooms and in metro cars
and everywhere i go i know i'm not welcome

Also this one.

don't know what i wanted
i have a memory
back at that party
i was all over her
we didn't make out
or do anything
i just remember
i was lonely
i guess i am always
it's not a problem
it's just something
i got used to it
every stranger
makes me feel safer
and every person
seems more beautiful

P- please respond.
I need more songs like this.

During my college years, I spent my summers working at a camp for the disabled. The counselors were beholden to three rules when it came to codes of conduct: 1) No Sex On Camp Grounds 2) No Drugs on Camp Grounds 3) No Alcohol on Camp Grounds. Nearly everyone broke the first rule, of course. It makes sense, to be sure. Spend your entire day dealing with Nature's mistakes, being spit, pissed and puked on, of seeing madness and misery, and one wants to experience something like human warmth in order to restore something like sanity.
Now, I think I was the only one of my coworkers not to break this particular rule over my four years of employment. Each night the couples would rush off to some dark place they knew they wouldn't be discovered, and I was left with nothing but the light of a campfire guttering out and bad memories. So I would go to my car and retrieve the bottle of liquor I kept secreted in the trunk, wander off to the cabin reserved for the "music and drama" classes we taught, and begin to drink myself to sleep on a couch stained by the piss of the campers who had sat on it. And I would listen to the music of Tom Waits.
One summer, I listened to the album "Alice" almost exclusively.
However, regardless of how drunk I was, I would wake with a start whenever this song began to play and immediately skipped it:

I could endure the Waits' songs about circus freaks and derelicts. But a sad, simple little song about impossible love was just far too much. It was far easier to live life down in the cold and dark of the ocean if I could pretend that there was no sky and stars above. It was more bearable to sleep alone if I could drink myself to the point where I forgot I was the only one each summer doing so. It hurt far too much to be reminded that affection exists, no less than it would pain the things that dwell in the sea's abyss if they knew that, although there was light, they would never see it.

Thanks, that was nice to read.
I can relate. Summer camps can be a lonely hell.

Generally don't like this kind of music but this is one of the songs I relate to the most and I think the lyrics perfectly describe what its like to be a robot.

If you're into some 90's midwest emo, I'd rec "Posthumous" by Vitreous Humor. One of my all time favorites and severely overlooked.
It's angsty and self-reflexive but not in an annoying way. It's also a super catchy with some killer melodies.
