21. “22”

Scenario: The world is ending and that sucks, but you get this weird urge to
dance and start a party. Blast this song, and people will come.
22. “Let It Land (Acoustic)”
Tonight Alive
Tonight Alive
This song is all about questioning life. Questioning everything that you’ve ever
been told, and staring at yourself in the mirror waiting for your life to start, and deciding
that its finally time to start taking action and living life. So, if you’re a “non-believer” of
the rumors, like me, please just don’t sit at home waiting for the world to end. Get up
and do something, anything–anything you want!
23. “View From Heaven”
Yellowcard

If all goes to plan tomorrow as the Mayan’s predicted, it doesn’t have to be a
travesty. For those so us who believe in heaven, the apocalypse could mean reuniting
with loved ones lost. This is the perfect bittersweet song for exactly that sentiment.
24. “Cough Syrup”
Young The Giant
Young The Giant
Yes, this song is a little depressing, and yes, Glee did play this song during
a montage of a suicide attempt, but it’s also sort of beautiful and that is precisely why the original makes our list!
25. “Heroes”
All Time Low
All Time Low
If the world does end tonight, there’s no point trying to please anyone anymore. The world is over– the moment is yours. Blast this song and dedicate it to all those “haters” out there, and do what you want with your precious last moments.
