What "I love to hate" is that anything that expresses emotion or is inspirational is "pretentious", uncool. What is hip is: negative,sarcastic,cynical,snide,snarky, pessimistic,bitter, and "throwing shade". :(
Still waiting....... :D

As a kid, i always thought it was Nights on White Saturn (70s, shitty AM radio etc etc). Had it pinned as some weird scifi elegy or something...

I was NOT making a joke I was stating a fact. Anyway all this is side stepping my request for your lyrics or at least ones that are acceptable to you. I've wasted enough of my time I'm on my way to get some excercise so your response will fall on deaf ears. BOYEEE!!

How did you arrive at that conclusion? There isn't a difference between good inspirational emotional lyrics and bad ones in your world? Okayyyyyyyy..... :scared:

I really thought you were joking, as whyterabbit certainly was in the post you responded to. Seems we don't share a sense of humour. No offence intended BOYO :roll:

btw It wasn't me complaining about anyone's lyrics.
