Robert Small

Spoiler: relevant lyrics

Afraid to lose control
And caught up in this world
I've wasted time, I've wasted breath
I think I've thought myself to death

I was born without this fear
Now only this seems clear
I need to move, I need to fight
I need to lose myself tonight

Walk, come with me now
I'm gonna take you down
Walk, come with me now
I'm gonna show you how

I think with my heart and I move with my head
I open my mouth and it's something I've read
I stood at this door before, I'm told
But a part of me knows that I'm growing too old

Confused what I thought with something I felt
Confuse what I feel with something that's real
I tried to sell my soul last night
Funny, he wouldn't even take a bite

 

Saetan SaDiablo (also potentially like... everyone who had to live in Terrielle, but especially Saetan and his history of horrible relationships)

Spoiler: lyrics

[Mike Shinoda:]
I watch how the moon sits in the sky in the dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
And the sun doesn't give light to the moon assuming
The moon's gonna owe it one
It makes me think of how you act for me
You do favors and then rapidly
You just turn around and start asking me
About things that you want back from me

I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

[Chester Bennington (Mike Shinoda):]
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

[Mike Shinoda:]
Maybe someday I'll be just like you
And step on people like you do and
Run away of the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm, used to be strong
Used to be generous but you should've known
That you'd wear out your welcome
And now you see how quiet it is, all alone

[Mike Shinoda and Chester Bennington 2x:]
I'm so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest

[Chester Bennington (Mike Shinoda):]
I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

[Chester Bennington 8x:]
You try to take the best of me
Go away

[Chester Bennington (Mike Shinoda):]
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head

[Chester Bennington:]
Shut! Up! What!

[Mike Shinoda (Chester Bennington):]
I'm so sick of the tension (shut)
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed (up)
While I find a place to rest

I'm so sick of the tension (what)
Sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed (stay away from me)
While I find a place to rest

 

Jordi Chin tbh

Spoiler: relevant chorus

I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe
That I'm in too deep
And jealousy, jealousy, jealousy, jealousy
Get the best in me
Look, I don't mean to frustrate, but I
Always make the same mistakes, yeah I
Always make the same mistakes 'cause

I'm bad at love (ooh-ooh)
But you can't blame me for tryin'
You know I'd be lyin' sayin'
You were the one (ooh-ooh)
That could finally fix me
Lookin' at my history
I'm bad at love (ooh-ooh)
Oh, you know, you know, you know (ooh-ooh)
I'm bad at love (ooh-ooh)
I'm bad at love (ooh-ooh)

I know that you're afraid
I'm gonna walk away
Each time the feeling fades
Each time the feeling fades
I know that you're afraid
I'm gonna walk away
Each time the feeling fades

You know I'm bad at love (ooh-ooh)
But you can't blame me for tryin'

 

Aranea Serket

No one escapes the things they've done
A fate that fits the crime
You've got a plan for everyone
Where do you find the time?

Because it's you
Dancing the planets on a string
And it's you who's got to handle everything
There'll be hell to pay
Unless we all behave the way you want us to
The world belongs to you

 

this one I'm going nuts trying to attach to a specific Kingdom Hearts character. fucking... Roxas maybe??? Vanitas? Zexion? Saix? I don't know it almost fits so many people

Spoiler: lyrics

They gave me a test to make me the best that I could be
They knew all along that there was something wrong with me
We picked out a spot and made a hole
Wire and glass and stainless steel
Now I can imagine how I'd feel

I got a new heart, I got a new heart
I got a new heart, I got a new artificial heart
It's not a real heart, it's not a real heart
It's not a real heart, it is a real artificial heart

There's blood on the bed, but here in my head I'm feeling fine
It's easy to sleep when I'm not buzzing all the time
So funny the way I was before
Once I was blind but now I see
Once I was him but now he's me

I got a new heart, I got a new heart
I got a new heart, I got a new artificial heart
It's not a real heart, it's not a real heart
It's not a real heart, it is a real artificial heart

You're at me again, I nod and pretend to think it through
I don't need to think at all if I don't care for you
It's not an emergency for me
I look at the walls and they go clear
I cover my eyes and disappear

I got a new heart, I got a new heart
I got a new heart, I got a new artificial heart
It's not a real heart, it's not a real heart
It's not a real heart, it is a real artificial heart

 

...How did I never see this before?? It fits perfectly!

(Also, Nemeses is still the ultimate blackrom song.)

 

Dib from IZ, or any similar character really

Don't hang up yet, I'm not done
I'm an expert, I'm the one
The one who was right all along
Better to be laughed at than wrong
I'm an expert in my field
UFOlogy, yes, it's all real
Ancient aliens, it's all true
I'm an expert just like you
And like you, I'm a genius before my time
Disbelieving, that's the real crime
Pretty soon they'll discover me in the Super-Sargasso Sea


Strexcorp! :D

There's no longer language
Only recognition
There's no longer country
Only corporate colors
Color makes us hungry
Hunger makes us human
Everyone can see it
Everythings connected


Whirl

Self control
That's not the only thing I
Lack a plan
Just my own gun against my
Back down now and let this hostage
Go away
I'm trying to think of something
Makes me feel
Like I'd do anything it
Takes to be a fucking winner now

 

Whirl again

Suddenly, theres a ring on my cell phone. I pick it up
It's the Angel of Death, and he says "Wazzup?"
I say, "What is it this time?"
And he's like "Well, hello, goodbye, I'll see you in Hell."

He can be like that sometimes, he's such a nut
So I snicker and say, "I'd love to, but
gravity's calling, I've got some falling to do."


The Adventure Zone, specifically the Stolen Century arc. this one is slightly cheating because it's not for a particular character and also I heard it on a playlist rather than associating it myself but it's so god damn perfect

And now I swear I will stop posting in this thread for like a couple hours at least

 

Peridot, immediately following Raising The Barn.

 

The post-Scratch trolls, and also the beta kids.

This bit especially:

We were once so close to heaven
Peter came out and gave us medals
Declaring us the nicest of the damned.

 

I lied about not posting in this thread


thanks to littlekuriboh I will always associate this song with Yami Yuugi

I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
But I'm a little glowing friend
But really I'm not actually your friend
But I am

 

I refuse to believe Guillermo Del Toro didn't listen to this song at least one time before writing The Shape of Water


This is specifically The Asset, but there's bits of the other characters in there too

 

This is a very Jesse McCree song imo

Spoiler

especially
When I was a young one
They told me I left my rights at the door
As I grow older, this becomes true more and more
Now I'm just staring out that open door
I should be screaming
But I ain't got no tears no more

And

Guess I lost a few things that were dear to me
Like my arms and my legs and my body and my soul and my will to speak
