Music I love ... Minecraft & AFI

When I decided to write my own drivel, I worked very hard at first. From fall 2011 to summer 2013 I worked tirelessly each week, researching, writing, discussing with my sistertard. During that time I remember two things: My dog Suzy was always next to me as I wrote, regardless of where I was and my background music was Minecraft. The kids played it day and night for at least two years. If you aren't familiar with it, take a listen.


I think "Haggstrom" and "Minecraft" are my favorites. When the kids moved on to different games, I purchased the soundtrack from iTunes. It turned out to be very good thinking music. Although when I'm writing about Maiki and her issues with men, I prefer AFI. Like "I Hope You Suffer." So twisted and emotionally sick. It's wonderful.

I wonder what other authors listen to when writing. I think I need to find out.

"I Hope You Suffer" - AFI

I got two letters from you
Last words of the runaway
Your love was written so true
And now I can't speak your name
I faced destruction and you just killed me and walked away
I gave my heart to the cruel
Now it will not beat again

I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
Just like I suffered

No one will ever know you
Deny the last one who cares
Intoxicate with the new
Pretend I'm no longer here
I opened my heart to you
You lied just to reach inside

Now with the faith you removed our hope for forgiveness dies

I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
Just like I suffered

I've seen my darkest days
You gave each one to me
I've seen my darkest days
You gave each one to me
You have been lost for days
May you find my darkness

I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
I hope you suffer
I hope you do
Just like I, I fucking suffered

Just like you
You made me suffer
I hope you, I hope you do
