My basic opinion of punk music is thus: useless, loud noise. It reminds me of going down to the airport and moshing to the sound of planes taking off. The lyrics are uninspired and about some evil in the world or about some girl, that is redundant to say it sucks. "Oh yeah, ignorance sucks." Well, what are you going to do about it? The problem, as I see it, about punk music is that it all sounds the same. Same punk singing, same drum beats, same 3 chords and same lyrics. No "real" singing seems to trickle through the guitar, and whatever quotes are heard are always about the same problems in the world. Some may accuse me of picking only on punk while many other genre’s of music have this problem, I chose to talk about this one. The only thing that punk ever had going for it, in terms of sound, was the "old school" punk, from the 1970’s. Back then it was still the same mindless drivel, but at least it was new and original. Now it’s all the same, simply noise and nothing else.

'cause you broke up with me
I know its my fault for losing you

I'm sorry for not trusting you at all
