Is there a difference between emo and goth?

I see people in school that call themselves one or the other but they seriously all dress the same do their makeup the same and kinda act the same. So is there a different or are emo and goth the same thing?

Thank you!

emo was originally a branch-off from punk. the music styles are different in structure and approach, but have some similar topics. for example: emo song structure is one long bitch-fest, no standard chorus or verses, just one non-stop spree of complaints...whereas goth shit is usually "dark" shit, like luring girls into the woods with the promise of drugs, killing her and having sex with her corpse, following the standard verse, chorus, verse, practiced by nearly every other type of music.

however comma culturally, they're not far apart. both appeal to "outcast" suburbanite kids with symptoms of mild depression. writing bad poetry is a trademark of both groups, with goth kids gearing theirs more towards violence, while emo kids do theirs on a more "personal suffering" level. clothing styles are different on subtle levels, emo kids wear "bitch-pants"(women's pants) with a tendency towards tight fitting attire, while their goth cousins wear baggy clothes.
Both are groups of bored kids, and are in it on some base level to either A: get attention, or B: get some kind of thrill from shocking people by being "nonconformist"(which is funny considering they all shop at the same store, which happens to be owned by the same corporations that run the "preppy kid" stores.

Keep in mind, a lot of these kids are posers, but there still is a percentage of them who are the real item, the real outcast kids, the real fucked up kids. they tend to hate these other "scene kids", and tend to be violent little fucks.

the real nonconformist doesn't exist anymore... so now its just a fashion like every other godless thing in high school.
