There’s quite a few for me, but the two that have really hit me lately are king park by la dispute, specifically near the end where the singer repeats “can I still get into heaven if I kill myself”, which as someone with a modicum of faith that has been struggling with suicidal thoughts, hits me hard. The second is How to survive a funeral by Make them Suffer. The song is beautiful as a whole, but it speaks about a young man who succumb to drug or alcohol addiction and it ultimately killed him. “Through a combination of alcohol and the chemicals you consumed, laid a broken path before a stoic man” is the intro, laying out the concept. The middle chorus is also beautiful, laying out how the people at the funeral never realised how much they cared for him until he was gone. The ending verse says “The funeral was in full bloom, you always knew how to fill a room” x2, then goes on to say “the funeral was in full bloom, to send you home. While the crowd remained composed they put a crown upon your throne, I guess you finally found a place to rest those bones”. My uncle died when I was about 19, and he was only in his mid 30’s. The cause of death was much the same, and because of all his work in the community (he did home repairs for cheap or free) his funeral was packed. It was a chilling experience to hear the song for the first time.
