"Modern Guilt" by Beck

This song embodies what it means to feel guilt because of the simple, but strong lyrics. "Modern guilt is all in our hands" and "feels like everything's starting to hit me" are lines which relate to Macbeth's character because controlling his guilt is his own decision and when he sees the apparitions, he really starts to feel his conscience hitting him.
