"I don't think you trust in my self righteous suicide. I cry when angels deserve to die."
System Of A Down - Chop Suey!

"The devil and his had me down, in love with the dark side I've found, dabbling all the way down, up to my neck soon to drown."
Tool - Jambi

"I bleed as my way of compensating everything to you. How heavy is blood? Happiness and Sadness lies too close."
Dir En Grey - Glass Skin

"And too much blood has flown from the wrists of the children shamed for those they chose to kiss. Who will rise to stop the blood?"
Rise Against - Make this stop (September's Children)

"We are ghosts of the concrete world, genetic codes of a dying breed"
In Flames - Sounds of a Playground Fading

"Did you catch your own reflection in the knife my mother held, or the hell in my father's eyes?"
Bring Me The Horizon - And the Snakes Start to Sing

"We don't doubt, we don't take direction, Lucretia, my reflection, dance the ghost with me."
Sisters of Mercy - Lucretia

"In a crucifixation ecstasy, Lying cross chequed in agony, Stigmata bleed continuously, Holes in head, hands, feet, and weep for me."
Bauhaus - Stigma Martyr

"The shadows of the night, are unleashed again. Where their greed begins the end is near. A morbid hunger for blood, lies in their cold black eyes They've come to take our lives away."
Within Temptation - Gatekeeper

I think bands like Within Temptation & Evanescence are just goth to the bone. Colors of red and black swirl in their midst. Images of jagged steel and twisted metal forge their being. Cemeteries and death are their backdrops.
