This band provides examples of:

• Driven to Suicide and Goodbye, Cruel World: "Torn" is told from the point of view of someone who has just slit their wrists, secretly hoping to be saved at the last second by the person he loves/is obsessed with. Sadly, as Frank Spinath makes clear on the band's website:

SHE will not burst through the door. SHE will not call. SHE is not thinking of you right now. SHE won't even move. SHE NEVER DID.

• Poisonous Friend: The song of the same name, which the trope was actually named after, is about the narrator's conflicted relationship with a woman and/or deadly snake, who kills people. The narrator sometimes watches her murders, and contemplates "how it feels to annihilate a friend", though it's not clear whether he means to off his friend or join her in her killings.
