random lyrics that make me emo-prompt. a collection of writing prompts based on the lyrics of various artists. there's nothing common between them other than the fact these songs just make me moody. i claim no ownership other than compiling these from my playlists. some of the sentences may have been tweaked to apply. feel free to edit as you see fit to match pronouns, names, etc. meant exclusively for roleplay purposes. tw: some of these sentences can be triggering.
