emo

A subculture mainly consisting of younger people who listen to rock, metal, punk, etc. They get lot's of hate and are called fake a lot, but I can assure you, they aren't depressed because they are emo, they are emo because they are depressed. Actually, you don't have to be depressed to be emo. They mostly turn to their music to cope with their issues, for the lyrics are deeply meaningful. If people would stop making fun of these bands because they have a different sound than others and listen to the lyrics and pay attention to them, you'd find the meaning. Emos usually have a darker style of band shirts, skinny jeans, and Vans with hints of neon, and the style is less for attention and more for finding more emos like themselves. The most common emo stereotype is that they all are suicidal and cut themselves, which is extremely untrue.

1.
Person 1: Ew look an emo!
Person 2: Hey emo! Go cut yourself
"Emo": I'll cut your throat
Person 3: I'll slit your throat and fuck the wound!
*emo and person 3 fall in love because Slipknot*

2.
"Emo": (bad day) I'm gonna listen to Pierce the Veil, Black Veil Brides, and Of Mice & Men even though society calls them all emo and horrible
PTV: Darling, you'll be okay
BVB: I believe that we all fall down sometimes
OM&M: You're not alone, you're with me
PTV: I wanna hold your hand so tight, I'm gonna break my wrist
BVB: Saviour will be there when you are feeling alone
OM&M: Don’t give up, baby I know that it's shaky
