So. I need a song rec. Help please?

As I write the big Clubsoka epic, each scene starts with a quote from a song. It's a whole theme sorta thing. Anyway, I desperately want a quote for the scene I just finished, and if I spend any more time scrolling through lyric sites, my eyes will explode.

Here's the quote I had originally, to give you an idea of what I'm looking for:

"I'm a martyr of a new and magic kind.
It's gettin' easy not to suffer all the time.
Don't touch me,
'Cause I've had too much to feel tonight."
-'My Ritual', Folk Implosion

But, given the way the scene turned out, I need something darker, edgier, angrier. The scene contains a fight, Yatonokami being a right bastard, threats to leave each other forever, and a kinda-making-up. Please do try to avoid pop or rap or anything excessively popular- I'm looking for groups like Massive Attack, Hole, Radiohead, Garbage, A Perfect Circle, Everclear, etc. Bonus points if the lyrics contain a mention of a curse or 'don't touch me', but anything about pain, suffering, I hate you, I love you, should work. Super-double bonus points if it's a club-y type song.

Anybody got any ideas?

Hole's "Violet" may work....
And the sky was all violet
I want give the violent more violence
Hey, I'm the one with no soul
One above and one below

Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever
Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever

When they get what they want, they never want it again
When they get what they want, they never want it again

Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything, I dare you to

I told you from the start just how this would end
When I get what I want then I never want it again

Avril's "Unwanted" kinda works...
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
You don't want me there
You just shut me out
You don't know me
Don't ignore me
If you had your way
You'd just shut me up
Make me go away

No, I just don't understand why
you won't talk to me
It hurts that I'm so unwanted for nothing
Don't talk words against me
I wanted to know you
I wanted to show you

Joydrop's "Spiders"
When love was fresh like a web we'd mesh
Nothing felt better than your flesh against my flesh
One fatal slip One rip a tear
Touch me now and every single hair
On my body stands on end

So don't touch me anymore
'Cause it feels like spiders
Like spiders all over me
Like spiders
Like spiders all over me

In the darkest corners of my mind they creep
Underneath my pillow at night when I sleep
Those hands I once longed to feel
I want to squash them under my heel

Evanescence's "Going Under"
don't want your hand this time i'll save myself
maybe i'll wake up for once
not tormented daily defeated by you
just when i thought i'd reached the bottom
i'm dying again

i'm going under
drowning in you
i'm falling forever
i've got to break through
i'm going under

blurring and stirring the truth and the lies
so i don't know what's real and what's not
always confusing the thoughts in my head
so i can't trust myself anymore
i'm dying again

i'm going under
drowning in you
i'm falling forever
i've got to break through

so go on and scream
scream at me i'm so far away
i won't be broken again
i've got to breathe i can't keep going under


Hope those help, somehow...I know there's more I know of by I can't remember them at the moment....
