2000s Emo Songs You Need For The Rest Of The Summer

On the other side of the 4th of July, school seems so much closer. The summer has reached its halfway mark and it creates a mixture of sadness and relief. If you live in Texas, it’s one month closer to reaching the end of the hottest months of the year. It means that we, those who live for school supplies, are about to reach our peak moments when Target starts having its Back To School Sales.

On the other hand, school is officially one month closer to us. It’s almost time to start mentally preparing yourself for the excuses and rationalization of your impending procrastination.

The only way that these feelings can be expressed is through emo music, and the pinnacle of emo music is easily classified in the 2000’s.

Thus, here are seven emo songs that say everything you wish you could as this summer winds to an end.

"Ocean Avenue" by Yellowcard

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "If I could find you know, things would get better, we could leave this town and run forever"

"Face Down" by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "I see the way you go and say you’re right again (say you’re right again)"

"Sugar We’re Goin Down" by Fall Out Boy

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "I’ve been dying to tell you anything you want to hear, cause that’s just who I am this week"

"It’s Not My Time" by 3 Doors Down

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "This could be the end of me, and everything I know, but it’s not my time, I’m not going"

"Teenagers" by My Chemical Romance

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "They gonna rip up your heads, your aspirations to shreds, another cog in the murder machine"

"That’s What You Get" by Paramore

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "If I ever start to think straight, this heart will start a riot in me, let's start, start, hey!"


Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "But she doesn’t know who I am, and she doesn’t give a damn about me"

Now go out and embrace the nostalgic emo feelings and make it part of your summer!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
