Lyrics
Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I'm tired and I
I want to go to bed
Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
And then leave me alone
Don't try to wake me in the morning
'Cause I will be gone
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go
Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore
Sing to me
Sing to me
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go
There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well...
Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye...

We accept the love we think we deserve
listen to this song faceless humming by the impures
it reminds me of this
Perks of being a wallflower
came to this song bacause of the book, reading it now
It's probably my favorite quote of all time
don't do this to me please, i am halfway trough the book and i am already shattered
*and* *in* *that* *moment,* *I* *swear* *we* *were* *infinite.*
I love you stranger ❤

Dear Charlie,
Thanks for letting me read your letters.
Love always,

Who is Charlie ?
@@caiosouza2561 it’s from The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
@@maggiegeurink9900 thankss !! :)
I'm from there ❤️
im from there too
When he say "There's another world, There's a better world"
I felt it
fr btw check out this song - faceless humming by the impures
its underrated
There has to be.
When he says "I don't want to wake up on my own anymore" for me
My favorite comic of all time, Doom Patrol, ends on this line. First read it like two decades and changed my life. I only found out there was a song today...
There is a better world but not this one.
this song is like a suicide lullaby. something that is so melodic, so deep and so touching it almost hurts. it feels like an eternal lullaby, seeing someone for the last time and although they think this won’t be the last time you’ll see them you deep down know. if anyone needs any help, i’m here.
just came across your comment. it is so relatable. i just hope you're doing great, and I hope you receive the help and the love you're willing to give. i hope your day are as beautiful as your words. take great care of yourself, beautiful soul.

I used to sing my newborn son to sleep with this every single night. He always fell asleep right away. He is now six, laying asleep next to me on a car ride after listening to half of this song. I am in tears knowing that he was what I lived for. He is why I didn't take me life over these years. He is why I fought addiction. and now I'm 15 months clean, watching him sleep just like he did when he was a tiny baby. And I'm so grateful to be alive. I'm so grateful for this song.
And im so greatful for god cuz he created a person like you, we need more people like you

Dear Charlie,
I'm so sorry for what you went through, this song truly is a good one, I understand why you liked it so much. I just hope things would be better for you. You'd be an adult now. Around my moms age. Thank you, your story has made me cry.
Love Always,

This is the comment i came here for. Thank you
My daughter sang this at my son’s funeral 10 years ago. Hadn’t heard it since. I made it through 40 seconds.
my goodness.
how beautiful, but how difficult. your daughter must be an incredibly strong soul. there is a better world: and your son waits for you both there 🌻
Im so sorry. Thanks for sharing, all the best to you
You are here to spread love only love

@@bilalel9024 idk
@@bilalel9024 My guess: English assignment for Perks of Being a Wallflower.
I keep it gangsta and slip in a couple N-words when singing.
My mom can’t even listen to this song without crying because she sang this to my dad while he was dying on his deathbed. She sang this to calm him down so that he wouldn’t feel afraid to die alone. RIP Dad 😢😭
your mom is strong, just as you are. pls never forget that.
@@fionahurmer I appreciate that so much. Much love to you!
Sorry for your lost 😔
We all will follow dad one day.
this instantly made me sad. i work with someone who recently lost his father on christmas. one time he had his car not start up and he needed a ride from his father, he told me that now he has no one to ask for advice about cars or anyone to pick him up now... can't imagine what it is like bro..
I have depression, and like most people, when I am alone it’s at its peak. I use to listen to this song almost every night while crying myself to sleep. Sometimes I’d wake up with it still playing because I had it on repeat. I remember first listening to it and crying my eyes out, it is so beautiful. This song will always hold a special place in my heart..
I hope you are ok. Try cbt.it helps.
I hope you are ok now. I was through it. We deserve another chance, always.
Same. I hate especially when it happens in public and people just ASSUME I’m being fake. And it feels like I’m isolated all alone even with everyone around. This song is a beautiful song and I hope it helped you
I once taped this for a friend and warned her about how bad it was and she laughed. The next day she returned the tape, slammed it on the table and said "I never want to hear that again" Made Of Stone by Daughter is a masterpiece too.
i love you b, remember there is another person who does similar things while they swim in their pain. you will never be alone in the world
Oh man, i'm so tired of life.
The music is the only thing i have
Same
You have me man, i LOVE you
How are you Right Now. Don’t Know you but thinkin of you Right Now
Same
"Sometimes I feel so small that I can't breathe, it suffocates me and paralyzes me" a friend told me that and I feel exactly the same, I feel worthless and this song makes me think about my life but then I think about the pain that my dog, parents, sister, friends and grandparents might feel if I do something against my life and I let go that painful feeling but then again every night it haunts me
"Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go"- my current condition
Nooo :c
same
same
I hope you're ok... Be strong, everything we go though is for a reason... For us to learn... And to grow... Hang in there, it will all be worth it some day...
I'm tired of staying around just because I don't want to hurt others.
I just wish I had a "suitable option".
A couple of days ago while crying I wrote on my notes:
«If I could just donate my life to someone who's fighting for his/her life, I would do it. I would give my life to other person, I would give my life to someone who's going to give it the value it has, I would.»
me too
you can do better than that, instead of making just one person happy, you can make thousands of people happy by creating thousands of jobs, so that they have something to work on and live their way of life.
me too but since its not possible, i just live it through donating my blood and money
i always thought that🤧
@@mkaroshi a job is not life, I've made many jobs in my life, and I'm glad for it, but we need so much more than a job

@@felixsiqueirosluisfrancisc6319 not forget said goodnight to your family and friends.
i listened to this song for the first time on a public bus, and started crying because i got this sudden and intense feeling about everyone around me, and how beautiful and fragile everything is, and how beautiful and fragile i was. it was one of the most interesting experiences i've ever had.
You have a beautiful, rare mind. Take care of it. :)
💛
is true I was the bus
why do i feel so connected to everyone here? isn’t it interesting how a couple of words and a melody can attract strangers to each other? not to be like “popular modern music sucks” but could 90% of the top 40 draw people together like this?
ps listened to this song on repeat for the last hour can’t stop smh
Yes.
maybe if you like the smiths you're from the same soul family
add me on insta @angel.muru pls ps spsldcosjfibhfewnr pls dm me pls
I get it cause everybody going through shit that's why we all together we are alone together all us
this is how we can beat depression. we are not alone people we are not...

Dear Charlie,
You've changed my life. Seriously. It's hard to write this in English for me, but I sincerely can't say how much you helped me. I became more sociable, I started to listen to me and my feelings and announce them. I am now me in most of daily situations and you are the one who helped me becoming who I am today. Thank you so much
I love you ❤️
Thank you so much for letting me know!
Well this just sounds awesome, well done Adina and well done Charlie :)
Saddest song by The Smiths in my opinion.
& Unloveable. 💙
This and I know it’s over
saddest song ever
And unlovable..2 great (and maybe unhappy birthday) songs.....I seen The Smith's once in Boston Massachusetts and it was the best concert I have ever seen by far....people were going crazy..I have seen Morrissey 28 times..not counting the other 4 times he started the concert and after 3songs he stopped and ended the concert and left..complaining it was to hot..but the other 28 times he finished the whole concert and was incredible..now he just had another interview (11/20/18)and BASHED Jonny Marr...I was the last hold out thinking the Smith's just mite do a tour ..but I have to say....
They will NEVER GET BACK TOGETHER ..NEVERRRRR...AND THAT SUCKS Morrissey is just a very hard person to get along with..I got his autograph once and he was cool..but very annoyed..but The Smith's are the best band ever..but the Smith's arnt the Smith's unless all 4 of them are on stage..God Save The Smith's
This is my funeral song
It is so freaking difficult to live in a world where everything seems so dark and hopeless.
Crying alone doesn't work anymore, sometimes death looks like the best option.
hey, hang in there, it will get better, i believe in you x
it really does, doesn’t it? I am with you so im no place to say it gets better. However I still stay long enough so I can say without a doubt it gets better
I know what you mean ,but for me suicide is a way To escape all the shit in this FUCKIN world
@@isabellelarose3855 please stay with us, it will get better.
@@isabellelarose3855 But it might be a lot worse on the other side? Hang in there.
The last six weeks I’ve been numb almost, preoccupied with the busy details of my little brothers death. I finally took some time off of work this week and truly am letting myself grieve. This song popped up on my playlist is it ripped me to shreds. My father committed suicide in 2020 and as traumatic as it was for me, it tortured my younger brother. It haunted him. He had been sober for many years, and I guess he couldn’t take the pain anymore. He overdosed on fentanyl on September 12, 2023 at the age of 31. The part of the song that sings “Don’t feel bad for me, I want you to know. Deep in the cellar of my heart. I will feel so glad to go” it put chills through my body like I was meant to hear it. I love you Billy and I always will. Rest now little brother.
Much love to you, and may your brother and father rest in peace🧡 I hope you will make it through these extremely though times, and cherish the time you got to spend with them
stay strong soldier🌻
So sorry for your losses brother, keep moving forward it’s all we can do
Don't even know what to write to console you, but I just want to let you know that your story really moved me to tears.
Sorry for your loss I lost 5 family members in 6 months it sucks you learn to live with them then you have to learn to live without them prayers to you stay strong lift your head high ❤
I’ve been struggling with suicidal thoughts for a long time now. The only thing stopping me from doing it is my family because I don’t want to hurt them. This song makes dying sound so peaceful, like it wouldn’t be as scary as I think it would be. Who knows. RIP to all the people who decided to go through with it, I hope with all my heart that you’re in a better place now.
You guys hang in tabere
i can t promise it will get better, but there are many things that are worth living for like this song
take care
Don't think like that friends I wish you the best of luck you never know what's round the corner 💚💚
I can relate to you a lot, what's stopping me is my sister already talk to me, but still I don't want to rely on her since she has her own problems and so am I, i don't want to add more negativity. It somehow gives me hope that people that I'm close with listens and cares for me but I don't want to be a burden. Bad thoughts still comes back. I hope you get through your own problems :)
I know life can be really dark and it sucks. I really do. I hope everything works out for you the way it's supposed to. You can try reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Hope that helps
I remember the last time I heard this song. It was around 3 years ago when things were bad for me. Here I am again, hoping to get past it.
sometimes i pretend like my blankets are someone else’s arms. i listen to this song and hope that maybe someday, someone will sing me to sleep
My wife died just over 2 years ago she was only 52 we had been together since teenagers and I so much miss us talking all sorts of rubbish to each other as we went off to sleep.
Sometimes the waking up alone is so crushing I sort of feel if I go to sleep and never wake up it will not be a bad thing, but I carry on if only as a beacon to the shining light that was Carolyn 💔
@@MrOvershoot You are really brave. It must be extremely hard. Can never imagine your pain.
@@cookingshookingwithmandm5800 I'm not brave, I just want to tell everyone about the brave girl I met who didn't let her MS get her down. its even on her headstone as the last line "I'm fine I'm ok"
And..did it happen?
They will don’t worry ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I survived quite a few suicidal attempts, I want to say to whom reads this message that living is worth it. Although you feel sad, tired, depressed, it will get better. Please stay safe.
i am glad you're still here, you make the world a better place just by being in it. take care :)
@@TonyEnglandUK I 100% support this
No it never gets better I just wish I had the courage to kill myself but I don't know what cones next
Glad youre still here man 🥹
Dear Charlie,
I will never understand what it felt like for you to be hurt the way you have. But this song brings me a hit closer to understanding you. I know you aren't real. But if you were, meeting you would be unforgettable.
Love always,
D.M.
I remember waking up at 6pm after a nap, home alone, it was completely dark and cold, and I felt sad. This song came to mind, so I headed over to play it. Suddenly I didn’t feel so lonely anymore, peace overtook me. It’s hard to describe but it was beautiful.
My grades have been falling apart. I treat everyone like shit. I look at my own skin and feel disgusted. I know it’s going to last for long,I feel it. I am a slave, there is no way to escape I am trapped. Yesterday I took myself in 2015 . I looked at my window again. But don’t be afraid I am not that bold. I never will be. If anything happens I love you
We're all fighting our own private wars, good luck on yours x
We love you too.
sending you all my love, hang in there,no feeling is final and it will get better. i know those words are just overused phrases but if you live long enough youll find them to be true
Sending you alot of love and support! Stay strong like you always have been! I love you❤
I know where you are, I am lost in there too, just know that I love you
“There is another world
There is a better world”
RIP Andy Rourke
I did not know Andy died. OMG! I’m in shock.
He endured a bad financial deal along with Joyce just to be in the Smiths.
to whoever's reading this: wrapping my arms around you and giving you a hug

When he's saying "bye," I feel like he's slowly drifting into unconsciousness. His last "bye" is barely audible, and is the last sound he can make before he fades away. The music box chimes are reminiscent of the absolute peace of a young child sleeping.
I can't believe the number of times people comment about Morrissey singing "bye" at the end. Even lyrics sites wrongly quoting those words.
That isn't what Morrissey sings at the end of the song. Ask Morrissey himself and listen a little closer.
@@TonyEnglandUK tell us what he says clever lad
@@kaimcnally1657 No.
@@TonyEnglandUK lmao
@@kaimcnally1657 he's right. In an interview with MM magazine, Morrissey explained he is actually calling for his "Mother" as he drifts away. That's what you hear, not "bye".

Don't worry, remember this is your year :)
This is our year lets live it with flow
Music is really powerful. I remember when I was 19 in college and it was so stressful I wanted to die. I found this song by chance in my recommended tab. I played this song constantly to get rid of the stress of failing in every possible way. Ultimately i almost committed suicide but something in me said, "Why don't I just stop going to college?" If college was the barrier to me living, I'd rather be alive than get good grades. So I just stopped going and started drawing instead. Anything that has to do with creative expression, may it be music, art, anything, is very worthwhile. Often times we forget to escape the mold that school puts us in. I'm not one of those people that think theyre woke, because they do something creative, but, our society has a tendency to stifle creative ideas. ASL interpreting was not something I was meant to do. Do things you want to do, not your mom or dad or anyone.
Bravo for your courage !
you are a living legend man , fuck everyone and be the person you want to be
You are insane, dont give up!
thank you for these words...
Thanks you for this. I really needed to hear this today
My close friend played this song while he is hanging with the rope, we are all sad and regret the fact that we did not see that he is in pain. We miss him so much. A very cheerful person, bubbly and lovable. Hope you find your peace wherever you are Emman ❤❤❤
Dear Charlie,
I really do feel infinite when I hear this song. Thanks for the chance.
Love always,
Friend
i have all of the smiths music on my phone but i come here to read comments and if anyone is reading this we both know why we’re here listening to this song and i just want to say maybe life does get better but when you struggle internally there’s not much you can do but sit and wallow in your sadness/emptiness and listen to music that doesn’t really help it but all that aside we should all at least try to live life to the fullest even if you’re not really all there because that’s what i try to do ik deep down life is precious but i can’t help but wanting to die and i hope everyone who reads this if you’re trapped in your mind like me i hope things get better although it feels like i’ll be stuck like this forever until the day i die anyway have a good day and enjoy this beautiful song from a wonderful band
You won't be stuck there forever. I trust that happiness will come to you again.
You'll get out. I used to think the same thought, word after word. But it does get better, you get better. And then you come here to listen to this because it's just beautiful and warm and bit nostalgic and sad, but you're happy and fulfilled. Trust me. No matter how bad things seem at the times you will get better.
Hey how are you today?
Hang in there buddy.
thank you so much
This song holds such pain for me. It was the last song posted on Facebook my my former flatmate and good friend. That evening, he took his own life. The shock of that, getting that phonecall, it still hurts me more than I ever truly realise. I cannot ever disassociate this song from him and that moment.
Earlier this year, the Netflix show Sex Education featured the song and as soon as I heard it I felt such deep emotions and I couldn't hold it back. I literally cannot listen to it anymore. I came here hoping to try and make it better but I had to pause it straight away, and I felt I had to type this to almost get a sense of closure. I never got over it.
It was 8 years ago yesterday. I miss you, and I am sorry I could not do more for you.
I'm so sorry for your lost. My flatmate tried to do it so, however, he regrets and I am glad for that. This song reminds me how weak the human could be and at the same time so strong. Again, I really felt your lost but keep in mind that he had a friend that is thinging about him. And that he has a song that will live forever.
I’m sorry for you’re loss. There will be a day when you can listen to this again. It may not be for a long time but it will come. Time heals all wounds. I hope you’re doing okay.
Please don't b hard on yrself. The mind can b very fragile.
It's getting bad again.
yet I had worked so hard.
Just hold on my friend. Just be there. Love from this part of the world. You will feel good again
@@sadiaraisa7676 thank you so much. This is what we all need. Some understanding thats coming from love without any judging.
There is another world, there is a better world
It will be okay. We will get through this together.
I remember getting the perks of being a wallflower soundtrack on vinyl when I was 14 years old and reading the book to it. It was then that I fell in love with this song. My parents were teens in the 80’s-so they grew up with this kind of stuff-but this song had an immediate connection to me. It captures the feelings a lot of introverts have.
Which book?

Perks of Being a Wallflower is my depression movie
picked the book up during Banned books week, its what brought me to this song.
Reading all the comments on here makes me realise I’m not the only one .
❤️
You’re never the only one. You an always reach out for help
Its kinde calming isnt it
This song means a lot to me . It really explains how suicidal and deppresed people feel. It truly captures the pain .
Charlie introduced me to a music I can never forget
Shivani Singh do you omegle?
Shivani Singh Be careful I used to be popular before Charlie introduced me to some actual good music. He’ll ruin your life.
I feel infinite
@@seanbassfilm haha. Thats some advice right there!

Dear Charlie,
Thank you for showing me the world in a way I've never seen it before, so innocent but devastating at the same time. I hope you grew up learning to say no and putting yourself first.
Love always, Friend.
"And in that moment, I swear we were infinite"
I love this song, but it is dangerous for suicidal people. It’s such a trigger. A suicide lullaby.
Very true. It really makes me want to do it. But some nights it actually makes me fall asleep and allows me to make it to the next day
@@zaxterdeep6757 please hold on life will be your best friend someday trust me
Or it can give somebody hope because you realize that you're not alone feeling that way and yet there's still a lot of beauty in the world
@@jesseb6171 that's probably painless, but as a fireman, I'd appreciate not having to come to the scene to pronounce you, or anybody, dead. It's tough on everyone, especially your family.
My friend committed suicide on last October and this was the last song he listened to. I can't help but cry whenever I listen to this now
i just want to go home....and im literally at home right now, if you know what i mean
edit: its pretty hard saying beautiful and motivating words to somebody when you cant think of anything to comfort yourself when you feel down... but I hope we all can feel better soon and find some meaning at least
Oh yes, same
I know what you mean.
Nice profile pic i can understand you
Holy shit I’ve been having that feeling for a long time “I want to go home but I’m already at home”. Didn’t know others felt this way too.
Same.
When I was in a state of depression I thought having hope was a lie because it denied the ‘fact’ that I live this pointless life only to die.
But the day the sun kissed my desolate heart and I felt flowers grow on my chest, I was glad I didn’t go to sleep and never woke up again.
i am very glad that you didn’t go to sleep, too. learning how to be glad for myself as well and i hope that one day the sun will kiss my heart as it kissed yours.
@@grey1419 Oh it will, someday, you just gotta hang in there, strong fella : ))
Beautiful 💖
This hits home! Been living with depression for a few years now. No suicidal thoughts but I sometimes wish I could just go to sleep peacefully. Double edged sword. This song saddens but comforts me at the same time. Anyone who is struggling with life, please hang in there. Don’t let the black dog win. x
I did not ask you little Baka
@@charlietheshit Grow up.
@@charlietheshit tf 💀
Me to when I lost my best friend but can't get him back just remember the good thing 😂
Dear Charlie ,
There’s so many people around yet I feel so alone.
Love always
your friend.
One of my favorite songs of the Smiths. I listen to it every day, especially at night time. It feels like he's singing to me the lullaby of goodbye. It's just reassuring to know that this could be the last song I'm listening if I finally sleep forever. Thank you the Smiths.
A sense of warmth
My grandpa just died. :(
I'm mourning.
Thank you for this song.
I can cry my heart out.
Rest in peace grandpa!
I'm sorry for your loss
This song reminds me of my passed grandfather who I lost two months ago I completely feel you! We will get through this.
God bless x
I also lost my grandpa a few months ago. I recently listened to this song, and it made me think of him. I understand how you feel man.
I’m so so sorry for your loss
Even with people around me, I still feel alone. I can never count how many times I have contemplated to end this pain. Being in pain is unimaginable for anyone but being in pain and alone is something I can never go through.
It'll pass.
One day you'll remember this song and come back here to meet your old friends with a new, healed, perhaps even happy heart.
Edit: for some of us it won't pass on its own. Talk to people around you, seek professional help, get disciplined, turn your life around. You're what you do, what you think, what you date, what you eat.
And then you'll hear this song and it will cut open all your wounds again
thank u :')
god, i hope so.
Adoro I hope so too.
I hope so
Dear Charlie & The Smiths,
All I want to say, is that I love this song since I started reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I was a 17 year-old with lots of insecurities and doubts, and this song is what kept me feeling like if someone understood what I was going through because I felt I couldn't tell anyone about my feelings. I isolated myself in school and ended up alone like the person who caused that in me wanted me to be, and this song was what made me fall asleep, waiting for another terrible day to begin...
I am 21 now, and I can say things get so much better when you learn from your mistakes, you got to fall in order to grow wiser and stronger, now I know what kind of people I can keep in my life and what kind of people I should stay away from, it was hard for my 17 year-oldself to understand that, and she felt everything was crumbbling around her, but things get better... And I can say I am very proud of the person I am now and the way I changed. I regard this song with so much happiness because it reminds me of how much I've grown in these 5 years :3
Thank your The Smiths and thank you Charlie, for being there for me when I didn't let anyone else to be by my side, love you always,
A friend :)
Thanks for your story
1:08 that piano part always kills me
I already know how to play the song on the piano, should I make a tutorial of that? ):
Idk because i am afraid of what the people is gonna say about me )):
@@diegocv5811 hey just do it!
Diego Cervantes I'm sure it will be great
Iv had dreams and depression dissociation episodes where everything feels far away, my eyes feel lifeless like cameras, the world is gray and dim, faded, and i am without my thoughts, without my internal monologue, and all i can see hear and feel is a soft, yearning piano, weaping, softly screaming its weight, fright, sadness, and defeat as it has seen the sadness of reality, choosing to no see another day rather than live a life of lies and denial, that piano is what depression sounds like, i hear it all the time
I Don't know why but it reminds me of interstellar soundtrack
My mother died friday 11/11/22 at 8:10.. i hope she is in a better world.. i love you so much mama..
Ma mère est décédée dimanche 02/10/2022. Qu'elle repose en paix.
My parents divorced when I was a 3 months old baby. I am 17 now. Last year my father was diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer. He didn't tell us. I was listening to music on spotify and this song was playing. I have known this song for a long time but I didn't feel like listening to it but some reason I didnt close spotify. My father was in the hospital because he fell down the stairs and hit his head. The doctors couldn't save him.(that time my mom knew what happened but didn't tell me) When I was listening to this song it was about 11pm. My father died right after that night at 3am. I think it was a message from him.:(
god bless ❤
I’m so so sorry for your loss
I am so sorry that happened to you and your family. I am so very sorry for your loss. I dearly hope that this song will stay a song of comfort for you.
:(
I'm so sorry.
Life's gift, use it everyday.
i'm scared. i'm tired. i can't see a goal. i feel stuck. this song is giving me comfort... i feel like i want to stop now. life screwed me over so much, i'm not a bad person but sht keeps happening. i'm at my wits ends. so if this ends up as my final presence in the internet. i hope u won't give up. don't give up.
Ken, time itself will fix you, mate. This isn't the real you. Make yourself stronger every day, and time will take you back to the real you.
to anyone who is going through it here’s a little message to y’all. your are the most sweetest, kind hearted, lovable & divine human being in someone’s eyes
A work of pure genius by Morrissey and Marr. Not too shabby for a B-side.
Asleep is my favourite song of all time.
Dear Charlie,
I'm sorry for everything you had to go through, no one deserves that. I loved receiving your letters and being a friend and hearing your stories. I hope you're doing well and that life has worked out for you, and that you still feel infinite. (p.s. I now understand why you loved this song so much)
Love always, friend.
This doesn’t remind me of suicide this makes me feel like home because once upon a time I was using the perks of being a wallflower as my will to live. This song saved me. The book saved me. The movie saved me. I’m still facing fear, but hey I’m alive. Thank you The Smiths. Thank you for keeping me alive. Thank you for letting me find my self in the twinkle of the last minute of your song. These moments kept me from death, and for that I will always be thankful and think of this song, that book, and that movie as home. Where I can go to feel safe and loved by myself and others.
I've loved and depended upon this song for 30 years. I don't see it as a trigger, it is a comfort blanket that I wrap around myself when the world clouds over. It tells me that when I feel unbearable sadness, it's not just me. The sound of the song is the way my soul feels when I am drowning in sorrow, and if someone else can encapsulate that in song, then maybe what I am feeling is just part of life, and being a human being.
You put it perfectly. When I first heard this song, I thought _"What? He's singing words that I've kept inside all my life"_
3:34 that destroys me everytime, The sound of childhood and carefree happy and easy life as a child 💔
This will absolutely be played at my funeral, just a beautiful piece of music and so poignant.
Me too, Jo. This and _"SIlent Sorrow in Empty Boats"_
Dear Charlie,
I’m about to enter high school next year, and this your story just hit me, it was so meaningful and real. I loved it. I hope my high school life is like yours.
Love always,
Friend
When I tried to die, it was not calm. I just want to break the illusion. Dying is not peaceful. I personnaly regretted it instantly and my blood was boiling. I got so yelled at afterwards and it caused me so much trouble. Today, I feel better. I've been through my life even if it was worse than before my attempt. And I am proud of it. You can do it. Once you find depression, you feel addicted. But once I felt a bit of joy, after my depression, I felt addicted to. And now I have joy almost constantly. Please don't think death is peaceful ❤️
I died once - in a car accident. The paramedics brought me back. It was painless for me because it was so quick. But I tell you, its nothing like people think. It's not peaceful, its not restful, it's not seeing your loved ones again. It was literally like being turned off and back on again a little while later.
It is the end of everything - absolutely everything for the person that dies. Pain, pleasure, the passage of time. everything. I still suffer depression but I can say that I would prefer to live for another year in depression than going back to that nothingness. Real, pure nothingness. It's something I really can't express in words about how nothing it is.
@@Shannon-Smith I am so sorry, it must be such a tough situation ❤️ I can only encourage to keep going, tell you that it will get better eventually and that yeah death isn't peaceful at all even if we could feel like it is
Much love to you, you deserve it ❤️ ❤️
thankful that stephen chbosky gave me a new smiths song to obsess over.
"There is another world, there is a better world....well there must be"
That's deep.
Dear Charlie,
because of you i can listen to 14 of these songs and write an essay about it!
Love always
you are loved please don't give up
i always think about the boy i showed the smiths too. this was his favorite smith's song. it will forever be a memory about him. i miss him
I recently lost the most important person in my life, my grandma was my everything. During my last days at the hospital, she started to ask me to sing to her... She never really liked to listen to music, so I wasn't expecting to hear that from her. I had to leave her in her last days because I lived in another state, and had to finish my MA. She kept calling my name after I left, for days... Until she stopped eating and her heart slowly stopped beating. Now after all the suffering, she is finally asleep. And I listen to this song and it feels like she is singing it to me. I feel like I am now completely alone in our fucked up world. I really hope there is another world, a better world...
Goddamn this was agonizing to read, I'm so sorry u had to go through that. RIP ur grandma. I hope u feel better now tho :)) I lost my grandmother too and it was awful so I understand
@@charliefrown6206 thanks for your comment. It still hurts a lot. But now I'm about to start a work where I can impact people and make their lives better. I think my grandma would be so proud of me, that's what keeps me going.
Dear Charlie,
Thank you for bringing me comfort and not making me feel alone in my thoughts.
Love always,
Your dear friend
dear friend,
i miss you and this song makes me think of you.
love always,
your old friend
shit, i feel this
pain
Reminds me of a friend I used to have too. It's been six months and I still think about her every day. I can feel myself starting to cry because the wound is still so raw. Why are the good people never allowed happiness
My mom made a lullaby for me and my sibling based off this song when she would “sing us to sleep” :) this song uses a kinda different tune but i am getting teary listening to it thinking about her singing me to sleep. This song is one of those gifts that go on for centuries
there is a better world and the way moz's voice faded/drowned/transformed to some emotional wreck when he says the first "well there must be" always crushed me - utterly defeated, so vulnerable yet so crushing and moving and im using so many words to describe this but it was always that about the smiths for me - no matter how devastatingly sad at times, its always soothing and comforting before anything else. human and rare, some discographies really are bigger than others
Bingo,that's so right...it fades away......
You know a song will mean everything to you when it makes you tear up the first time you hear it.
I'm leaving this comment here so after a month or year when someone likes it, i get reminded to this song..
This song gives me full body chills every time I hear it. Something so simplistic but beautiful about it. It's been in my head all day.
For me, personally, it's the most important song ever written.
I already knew this song before watching The Perks of Being a Wallflower, but it brought me back here
As someone who has recently crawled out of my depression and quit self-harming, I can't tell if this song makes me feel better or worse. It makes me feel like I'm not alone with my thoughts, but it also adds extra weight to them, in a way.
To the people that still are hurting, still are in a dark place, and still are struggling, just hold on. Try to focus on the light, because even when it's incredibly faint, there is always a bit of light in the world. It's okay to make mistakes and screw up, and you shouldn't get mad at yourself for it. Just learn from them and swear to not make the same mistake again.
Also, yes, I'm here from the Perks of Being a Wallflower.
Thomas Black-Slytherin I’m so proud of you for quitting self harming
@@khadija1034 Thank you. I'm proud of myself, as well. XD. Also, apologies if this is a rude assumption, but based off of your username I would guess that you're Muslim, in which case Ramadan Mubarak and and early Did Mubarak. If not, then apologies for being random and assumptive.
Thomas Black-Slytherin yes I’m a Muslim. Thank you! I’m happy you’re proud of your self!
