 Song 131

Welcome back to the blog! I've got another one for you! I won't be able to write one next week, because I'll be on vacation. Until I get back, I hope you enjoy this one! The song today is You're So Ugly When You Cry by The Funeral Portrait ft. Bert McCracken from The Used! I honestly think this was a great collab, their voices work so well together. The intro for this, has the chorus in it. So you know the drill, we'll begin with the first verse: "Everybody wants to be a martyr, and everybody wants to know their father. Loves their precious son. (4, 3, 2, 1) Everybody wants a happy ending, anything to keep pretending. You hurt yourself for fun, cherubim and therapists. They build your chains the same." Not much to comment on here, so I'll let you do that. The chorus: "How can I change my life, when I only wanna die. You couldn't love me if you tried, you're so ugly when you cry. So bury, me deep. Cause all the world around me is so ugly." I really like how relatable this song is, especially for these times. The world is a pretty dark place right now, but that shouldn't discourage us from trying to make it better. Second verse: "Does anybody really wanna live forever? Ask me when the party's over, aren't you having fun? (Aren't you having fun) And everybody wants a happy ending, no more tears the world is ending. And all the kids do drugs, maybe we were always meant to. Hurt the ones we love." Ooh that verse is a real thinker, that last line cuts deep. I personally don't want to hurt the ones I love, it doesn't feel good. There isn't really a bridge in this song, I guess the "bridge" would be when it slows down, on the third repeat of the chorus. But there's no new lyrics. I love the vibe of the instruments on this one, they're awesomely edgy. Which is very fitting for the context of this song. There's this really cool scratchy sound right before the slow down, I love that. I also think there's some shredding on this track, which I absolutely love! The high pitch shred/strum of an electric is just pure perfection! There isn't really an outro on this track, which is fine. Not every song is going to have one, just how not every song has a bridge. 

That is it for this review, I hope you consider checking it out. I will see you, when I get back from my trip :)
