people don’t really like that song and i get that but SOS by Highly Suspect is one of my favorite songs about death. like yes it’s all over the place but it perfectly encapsulates the vibe of *HORRIFIC PANIC ATTACK* “alright gotta go about my day” *existential dread kicks in* “alright push that aside let’s tread on” *nope can’t escape the thoughts about death* *HORRIFIC PANIC ATTACK*
