and... this is what happens when ponyflipped and I sit down in a study next to each other and she starts reading The Seafarer in our Brit Lit textbook.
ponyflipped: (through note passing, of course!) The Seafarer = ORIGINAL EMO SONG
me: EMO VIKINGS!
and she replied with the first verse of this little nugget of genius! Enjoy!
(note: bold means written by me , not-bold is written by ponyflipped. It's MY journal, so i get the bold. bua ha ha ha.)
Brit and Hannah's Emo Viking Song
(aka please, pretty pretty please, someone save me from HEL!!!! or at least pass the mustard)
Tears of Blood roll down my face/
I am going to die/
And I won't go to Valhalla/
because I'm a skinny androgynous wimp/
oh my bloody heart!
the creaking of my boat/
is the screaming of my soul/
under the beard and helm/
I'm crying, OH, crying inside
Drinking and wenching/
has lost its fun/
the other vikings don't understand/
all my deep, sensitive emotions
the cold, gloomy north winds/
echo my painful sighs/
why did you leave me?/
Why did you leave me?/
WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME?/
Broomhilda, I'm in HEEEEEEEEELLLL!!!/
*mournful guitar riff*
Odin doesn't see me/
no one hears me CRY/
my throat's torn open with my angsty scream/
SOMEONE PLEASE INVENT A LOZENGE!!!!!!
WOOOOAAAH!/
tears of blood!
(oh I want to die)/
Screaming of my soul!
(oh I need to die)/
Crying inside!
(oh I'm going to die)/
No one understands!
(Gooooood bye - I'm dead.)
Broomhilda - I'm in Hel/
Broomhilda - I'm in Hel/
hear me roar!
(oh, the viking cry)/
see me angst!
(oh, the viking sigh)/
No more fun!
(for this viking guy)/
Anglo-Saxon raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaage!
broomhilda- I'm in Hel/
Broomhilda- SAVE ME FROM HEL!!!
Too late *Sad guitar* I'm deeeaaad.
Don't deserve a funeral pyre. I'm just dead.
yes, I know it's brilliant. Feel free to send us large quantities of money and endorsment offers. We plan to take this baby overseas and become Finnish pop stars. Nordic fame, HERE WE COME!
