    I wake at four in the morning
    Where all the darkness is swarming
    And it covers me in fear"
    That lyric, to me, is incredibly relatable and I think one of Bono's best.
  2. I figured “Exit” is the correct answer, but “Acrobat” also comes to mind.

    “Numb” is a different kind of scary if we’re into that.

    The Wanderer - the last verse (“I went out walking with a Bible and a gun. The Word of God lay heavy on my heart. I was sure I was the one. Now Jesus, don’t you wait up. Jesus, I’ll be home soon. Yeah, I went out for the papers, told her I’d be back by noon.”) and the alarm at the end.

    The cool thing about The Wanderer is that the synths make it kinda sound post-apocalyptic.
  5. The cool thing about The Wanderer is the whole of it.

    totally agree, this song give me a mix of feelings because at the same time that it's creepy, it's a beautiful song
