Songs on the themes of loneliness and wandering - not that I'm lonely, I just like the theme of it =P

1990s - Mansun was a big drug fueled band, I'd be suspicious of any songs they did that were not about drugs. It's kind of interesting how there's a vampire theme here, because it's kind of a metaphor for all the things of morning and the return to normalcy that kind of kills the true personality and replaces it with one of routine.

2000s - she hates the loneliness, but I love this song. Although, I'm pretty sure the "left outside alone" thing isn't a literal thing, more of a metaphor. While Mansun and The Weeknd (below this song) can easily have a more literal interpretation.

The Weeknd reminds me more of myself back in my teen years, wandering the streets looking for drugs and alcohol and having weird adventures and not worrying about danger. He's alone, and loves it, fears the sunlight because it means the night's over and the judgment will be back on. I think this song hits the "vampire" theme I spoke about earlier. The Weeknd becomes anxious about the rising of the sun and the end of the night. I remember that feeling... Walking home, drunk/high with the sunlight in my eyes. Especially this time of year when it comes up so damn early but those short nights are so damn great from dusk til dawn. I love the early summer... in a way, the shortness of the nights is a little better, because by the end of the summer and the far longer nights we're knocking ourselves out...



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
