All pop-punk kids are in love with the lyrics. The lyrics are a support system, an inspiration, and a reminder that being a human will work out in the end. There are so many bands with amazing lyrics out there to choose from, and while this is just a fun list of lyrics and tried-too-hard puns and references to make the week a little more exciting, if a week has its own soundtrack, how bad could it be?
Mondays are nobody’s favorite, so Neck Deep gives us some reassuring advice and a good reason to get out of bed into the cold, cruel world of a Monday morning.
“Sometimes things will bend you, but trust me, you'll be fine. I've been moving mountains that I once had to climb. And life's not out to get you." - Neck Deep, “Gold Steps”
Tuesday
Tuesday is almost as bad as Monday. The week is a slippery slope into a dark void of work you procrastinated on coming back to get you. “I’m the book you always opened but you never read/Beside the box you call your bed.” The results of this ‘Bad Luck’ are as follows:
“This quicksand it pulls me under… And I'm learning how to live with my unintended consequences” - The Story So Far, “Quicksand”
Wednesday
The midweek slump. Halfway through hell week and you are deliriously accepting the lack of sleep and are looking forward to the weekend. As It Is reminds you not to take the cheap shots and setbacks the week is throwing at you.
“We’re the kids who are dead inside, but we’re the one’s who feel alive. We dream ‘cause we don’t sleep, we’ll never get rest but we got this” - As It Is, “Cheap Shots and Setbacks"
Thursday
The weekend is in sight and you cannot do one more second of this having to human thing. So take a break with Candy Hearts and let it all out, find the best ways to disappear from all the ways the week let you down.
“Take off your glasses, raise your fists, and tell the world you’re sick of it. You know exactly what they are, and you don’t have to feel like this anymore” - Candy Hearts, “Sick of It”
Friday
TGIF and now you can relax and turn loose in the night.
“There is desire to fight, but I have nothing to prove. With the crowd and some lights, I start to feel things move... I am a child inside, back up and give me some room.” - Blink 182, “Natives”
Saturday
Make it worth your time-have a pizza party or tour the town you are sick of living in. Take the advice from Hayley Williams and the guys in Paramore…
“Everybody live like it’s the last day you will ever see” - Paramore, “Born for This”
Sunday
Sunday is a quiet day, to reflect on all the homework you ignored or the embarrassing things you did over the weekend that you would rather pretend did not happen. The lovable Hustlers in All Time Low remind us that just because you are buried in projects or awkwardness does not mean that every day will be like that.
Maybe it’s not my weekend, but it’s gonna be my year - All Time Low, “Weightless”
