Can we get a poll to determine whether the world is a vampire (Smashing Pumpkins reference) or a subway (Our Lady Peace reference)? You know I'm a crazy huge OLP fan but I find it funny that both bands have a song that mentions the world being something sort of odd and they got compared to each other especially in their earlier days
Bullet With Butterfly Wings by The Smashing Pumpkins // Superman's Dead by Our Lady Peace
(alternatively: which of these would surprise you more to find on the doorstep? a vampire, or a subway?)

But I can be your, be your, I'm here
I can't see that thief that lives inside of your head
But I can be some courage at the side of your bed
I don't know what's happening and I can't pretend
But I can be your, be your, I'm here
-- Thief, Our Lady Peace

Stop Making Stupid People Famous - Our Lady Peace (feat. Pussy Riot)
Lyrics
I've got the feeling we were dreaming when the panic attacked
And we keep making stupid people famous now we're paying for that
We look for meaning on the ceiling
When we lie in our beds
We blame our parents and our therapist for clouding our heads
(Oh yeah)
I know you got it
We're working hard on a dream
I know you want it
We're working hard on a dream
I know you got it
Unceremoniously
But we're working hard on a dream
And hey (alright)
Tell me how you're living
And hey (alright)
Tell me are you with me
I've got the feeling I was dreaming when I woke up in jail
And we keep making stupid people famous now we're living in hell
I know you got it
We're working hard on a dream
I know you want it
We're working hard on a dream
I know you got it
Unceremoniously
But we're working hard on a dream
And hey (alright)
Tell me how you're living
And hey (alright)
Tell me are you with me
Stop, we gotta stop
Stop, we gotta stop
And hey (alright)
Tell me how you're living
(Stop making stupid people famous)
And hey (alright)
Tell me are you with me
(Stop making stupid people famous)
And hey (alright)
Tell me how you're living
(Stop making stupid people famous)
And hey (alright)
Tell me are you with me
(Stop making stupid people famous)

I think my ask got eaten by the Tumblr void. Or maybe it didn't, but I think it did.
Curious as to why Our Lady Peace hasn't been mentioned during the tournament. Maybe it's the fact not many people know who they are. I've only discovered them recently and I have to say they might morph into one of my new favorite bands. They are seriously amazing.
Also Raine Maida gives me immense gender envy like his voice is everything I wish mine was and he's so pretty
Oooh good shout, great band! I'm equally surprised they haven't been mentioned here at all.
Also yes, I think Tumblr swallowed your original ask :( The case of the vanishing submissions is getting worse recently, it seems.

Hope you remember me
When you're homesick and need a change
I miss your purple hair
I miss the way you taste
I know you'll come back someday
On a bed of nails I'll wait
I'm praying that you don't burn out
Or fade away
And all we are
Is all so far

And if I don’t make it know that I’ve loved you all along
Just like sunny days that we ignore because we’re all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out what’s wrong

Prayer or something like it...
God, Jesus, or whatever God will relent I could use some attention right now. I have been carrying a lot of weight on my shoulders for more than two years and my heart is heavy. My body is fragile. My spirit is broken and my faith is questionable. I’m so lost right now there are so many things I need to figure out but I’m also trying not to break. I bend over backwards and I know my resiliency, but I don’t know how much more I can take.
I’m tired of waking up every morning wondering if my life is worth it or if it has meaning. I’m tired of contemplating the easy way out and I’m tired of fighting the constant urges for fighting for my life while I know other lives depend on me. 
Give me the strength and courage to find in myself that my life has meaning and that I am worth more than what I accept from other people.
Bless it be ❤️🩹
