Lyrics:
You said I take too much space, half an inch from my face, and you meant it
You grabbed my hands and you smiled as you kicked me right out my own sentence
I'm glad you got the chance to be honest, I’m happy for you, there goes years of my progress
You said I take too much space, now I know what you meant when you said it
One thing I like about me is that I’m nothing like you and I never will be
Someone who loves how it sounds when they speak, you’re not telling the truth
No you’re just being mean, you’re just being meeeaaaannnnnnn you’re just being meeeaaaaannnn
I went outside just to cry, had this look in your eye like you won
Oh but I can’t be surprised, you care less the more damage you’ve done
I'm glad you’re working through all your issues, projecting on me will never be the way to fix you
You said I take too much space and right now I can’t shake how it stung
[Chorus]

Guys!!!!!!! It means the absolute world to me to hear your stories and know that you feel any amount of comfort from my song. I’ve only ever wanted to make people feel less alone with my music. Thank you for sharing your feelings with me, I will always hold them so closely. I LOVE YOU!
❤️ ILYT ❤️
you are relatable and have such great lyrics
We love you too😌
I just discovered your music and i absolutely am in love with it ❤️😍
This song amazing 👏
I can’t describe just how comforting the chorus sounds. Just feels like a hug to the listener
Exactly
🫡
I (nearly) cried
As someone who struggles with anxiety and high functioning autism, it's so hard to be accepted. This song really speaks to me and makes me feel happy knowing that I'm not alone.
u can do this
yea I know, we can do this!
Hey, we don't use functioning labels anymore. They do more harm than good. Kids can get labeled 'high functioning and then get zero help when they actually need a lot of support to succeed. /nm
Appreciate who you are, and take pride in what you have to offer. You are unique. You are loved. Your are needed.
@@dancingcarapace yes! functioning labels box neurodivergent people and it’s based on what society deems to be less impactful on others and more exploitable, so “high functioning” neurodivergent people learn to mask their traits to fit in to please neurotypicals and are left with a load of trauma and mental illness; “low functioning” are treated as less then by society and are infantilised and are refused certain privileges others have just because they are visibly neurodivergent. it’s so harmful to compartmentalise nd people because it’s a spectrum and literally every nd person is very different and can be seemingly “high functioning” in one area and “low functioning” in another
After years of manipulation, verbal abuse, gaslighting and lies, my mother and I finally cut ties a few weeks back. I can't explain how much this song resonates with me. I may not be perfect, but I'm nothing like her and that's enough for me.
i am proud of you :)
Well done lovely🖤
Your mother probably yelled at you once and know you go around claiming to suffer from a traumatic childhood.. Damn, my generation is fucking hilarious
Well I hope you tell her and try to understand her and maybe one day forgive her because forgiveness is divine and it does come around from time to time
i was looking for a comment like yours, bc i can relate this so much
I'm an introverted person with horrible social anxiety, this song makes me feel safe and warm. Although I don't have friends this song tells me I don't need friends to be happy! And that's true. Edit: Omg! I've never had so many likes before ty!
I'll be your friend! So less of the no friends stuff buddy 😊
Being an introvert in this world is an amazing positive!! I would encourage you to check out a book called "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking". It will affirm for you the gifts you bring to the world, and your value in a world that has gone astray. Appreciate who you are, and take pride in what you have to offer. You are unique. You are loved. Your are needed. Feel free to contact me if you would like to.
I can be your friend also c: I use to have no friends and I also have social anxiety and it prevents me from making friends. I have one friend now. So it’s nice finding someone u relate a bit to 😌
I feel you sis!
Dont worry your not the only one❤️
I came here from tiktok; I heard the chorus line only and I needed to hear the rest.
I just left an abusive relationship and the lyrics fit so well to it. Thank you for this. It’s so healing❤️🩹
was it the one about the nurse because that's why i'm here too
me too girl. the thing that really can comfort us, is we will never be anything like them.
I did as well, stay strong Queen
I'm so glad you left! You deserve so much better. I barely escaped an abusive relationship 4 months ago with me and my daughters life. My daughter was born a month after I escaped. I really related to this song as well.
me too bby. we got this, we got this ❤️
You're looking for 0:41. There's just something about how she says "And I never will be". The tone, the subtle harmonies, the sonic balance. Beautiful 👌🏾
Ik!
SHE'S LIKE AN ANGEL. THAT VOICE IS BEYOND BEAUTIFUL!
I was looking for that part but ended up falling in love with the entire song!😭❤ its so beautiful!
mash it up bro
right :(
thank you for celebrating individuality ❤
W youtube
2nd reply to TH-cam? Nice 👍
3rd reply to youtube ayo!
4th reply btw
5th yesss
The “One thing I like about me is that I’m nothing like you and I never will be” part hits so close to home. I’ve never listened to a song consecutively like I have with this one. I still have a slightly rocky road coming to terms with my trauma but this song captures a chunk of it. Thank you Madeline for sharing your talent with the world 💖
Oh my god oh my god. As someone neurodivergent it’s hard being easily accepted in this world. I hold this song so close to my heart. Goosebumps.
1000% this. ☝️
Came here to say this.
Yes yes yes
Same baby 😭
Same with me and it can be hard to feel like you can never fit in. I love songs like this that are so relatable
this is by far the best song that has ever been written. I have struggled with a lot of family issues in the past- projecting, verbal abuse, and not feeling heard in my own house. i felt like this song brought those issues to light and how it makes the victim feel. i cant believe this song isnt on #1 rn. thanks madeline, thank you for making me feel heard.
Try Janis Ian's "At Seventeen". An amazing song too.
I swear, this song is truly the Wikipedia definition of my life. I was raised in an abusive and toxic household and because of it I was always worried I'd eventually turn into my parents and hurt the people around me. This song truly captures how I survived.
Thank you for being so brave and telling you story, that will definitely bring hope to some people in the comments❤❤❤
i feel u T-T
u r not alone!
I am a 67 year old grandma of 6 teenage grandchildren, so in love with this song and the video! I have seen bullying & meanness they have experienced through their lives as they are all in High School. Enjoy your music you are very talented! I will be able to say I knew her when she started out.
God bless u ❤️
❤
you seem like an awesome grandma
I hope i still listen to cool music when I'm in my 60s😭🤞
Awwww
Lyrics! :)
You said I take too much space half an inch from my face and you meant it

(One thing I like about me is that I’m nothing like you and I never will be)
You’re just being mean

You’re just being mean
(Someone who loves how it sounds when they speak
You’re not telling the truth, no you’re just being mean)
Thx
Thank you random citizen
Thank you so much
“One thing I like about me is I’m nothing like you and I never will be” is my new favorite lyric of all time
Yes :'D
Funnily I was diagnosed with ADHD at age 18 2 weeks after this song came out and this has been on play non stop. Years of being misunderstood and labelled as different by my peers - especially because of my hyperactivity - does sting. This song definitely fits so many neurodivergents perfectly, including me. Thank you for bringing some validation for us.
I KNOW EXACTLY how you feel. Try being diagnosed with ADHD when you were just 9-10 years old. It was a heck of a struggle. So much that I started to develop Maladaptive daydreaming. It sucks, but the Good will always outweigh the bad. Never seek validation from anyone who didn’t pay you mind the first time. As my dad told me. Be your own person, but never try to impress someone who you know doesn’t care for you. People put themselves 6ft under due to rejection.
i cannot explain how PROUD i am of this girl. 🥲 madeline, your talent is like no other. i’ve never listened to a song relentlessly and every time feel something different. the way you captivate your emotions and use them in your insane lyricism is absolutely unreal.
every song you write tells a totally different story. that’s so rare to find in todays music world. get ready y’all, this song is gonna blow up!!
love you madeline
Beautiful just beautiful 👏🏽
This *person* 😏 get it
@@brii8077 yes
*The ETERNAL GOD would do anything for you!! Even out of love for you he went to the cross as a human!!* Philippians 2:5-8
“Kicked me right out my own sentence”
I freaking love that, you have a way with words. TIME TO ADD TO MY SPOTIFY
I wish it was on Apple Music. 😢
@@devionewilkins8903it is..
It just blows me away how perfectly she captured words I’ve never been able to say. I genuinely feel heard for the first time in my life.
She sounds like a angel an her song has meaning not degrading not disrespectful just pure grace and truth thank you Madeline for being a real person.
Got out of such a sick friend group who were so awful and mean. There was a night I ran out of their apartment, drunk and crying because I couldn’t understand why they were being so mean to a girl we knew. I truly am so glad that I’m nothing like them and I refuse to be. I can’t hold hate like that in my heart
I relate sm to this as well having escaped a mean friend group environment
I feel you and me too
Such a healing voice with meaningful lyrics. I love her so much.
As comforting and validating as this song may be, just be aware that it's dangerously easy to be just as mean as them without realizing it. I made this mistake recently and just wanted to PSA
i feel like this song was calling me out for being mean too
It’s refreshing to see self awareness in a comment section. Remember, just because you weren’t who you want to be in the past doesn’t mean you can’t change that for the future. We are not defined by our past selves, but by what our current selves do.
Please give an example so we can understand. It sounds like you gained some insight and realised you were being hurtful, but dont give any clues as to the situation, what happened to show you the err of your ways, or what we all can do to be self aware
As an introvert with social anxiety and hard childhood I can relate so much to this song and it makes me feel happy! I’m so glad I found it and now I can listen to it
I feel the exact same way , its also really hard for me to make friends and this song just makes me feel better and acknowledge in a weird way
I'm here to come back after 5-10 years when she's a superstar and to remind everyone I was here from the beginning.
But all jokes aside, the song hits home and makes me want to appreciate the person I am and stop trying to mold myself by society standards.
Madeline is a wonderful person and hopefully gets all the recognition she deserves. 💜
it’s so good

I was bullied for 4 years constantly after moving from the states to the U.K. and I ended up believing a lot of the things they said. It become part of my self image. I was 10. Im turning 20 next month and I’m still affected by their words. But I’m getting trauma therapy now. This song is exactly what I wish I could say to them.
Edit: thank you to all the people who are sending me love and words of encouragement. It makes me feel less alone. ❤️❤️
Don't worry you are not alone 😊😊😊💖💖💖💖
This.. Bullies don’t see how much it hurts. I just smile and tell my friend their words don’t bother me. But here I am, their words have become me.. I can see myself as anything more than their stupid words..
❤️
I’m so sorry
Also an American that moved to the UK, at 5 years old. I share a lot of your experience, and had to go through therapy for social anxiety. It's a big step to seek help, so I'm proud of you for that!💪🏼 you're not alone. It takes time but it will get better, I promise xx
I know you, Madeline, will never see this but thank you for such a comforting song.
I literally cried my eyes out.
As someone who lived in a abusive home, was bullied for 14 years, went to school with bruises and the teachers didn’t said anything, eating disorders, suicidal thoughts, PTSD & anxiety, 4 hip surgeries, lag of confidence, stress disorder, fear of meeting new people… Thank you.
I can scream this now to them.
this song is everything i ever wanted to tell my mother and never found the courage to. this has helped me heal so much
I haven't related to a song to such an extreme level. My abusive bestie said so many hurtful things to me but i lost my cool when she burned my forehead with a curling iron which she held against my head and told me it was my fault. I left her some time after that, but the damage was already done. I would spend whole night awake and sometimes crying cuz her words kept rewinding in my head, it was non stop.
I am doing better now. But it took me months to heal.
Each and every part of this video describes my emotions when i was with her. Madeline has created such a beautiful masterpiece for all of us. And her singing is so mesmerizing, she has a beautiful voice ❤
Saved this in my favourite playlist.
I relate to this,my hommie was very narcissistic he would even break laws in my name and invalidate my feelings when I told him things about my life. I know it’s not to the same but I thought it would be some comfort
You don’t understand how much this song means to me. This song fits so much into my life. It makes me feel seen and I thank you for creating this great representation. Your words and your voice flow amazingly and you are incredibly talented. Thank you so much.
The "one thing I like about me is that I'm not like you and I never will be" reminds me of myself towards my father and my mother. so thank you for making this song!!!
To those who resonate/relate to this song on a deep level because of any toxic factors in your life my heart goes out to you ❤
I recently got diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder & as it turns out all the bullying i suffered in grade 7 upto grade 10 play a big role in it. This song brings me so much comfort, i can't put down the immense comfort it brings me. Wish I could send this song to my bullies. And to all those who are going through the same as i did, i promise it gets better ,asking for help isn't weak, you're powerful beyond words. I love you 🧸🌷💌💖
I'm sorry about what happened to you. Sending you love and prayers. ❤❤❤
@@chayagrunwald940 aww thankyou it means a lot 🥰
As a BPD warrior myself, I applaud you for your strength of getting through those hard times. Life has so much in store for you. Don't let anyone take that from you. 🖤
You're beautiful
I mean wow, keep going. You're amazing and inspiring. Keep going! Thanks for your words of wisdom. ❤
my whole life i’ve been disliked, pushed away, and unaccepted by people i’ve been nothing but nice to. sometimes i hadn’t even talked to them at all yet they hated me for some reason. this song, the lyrics, the video, it all hits so close to home. it’s the kind of song that takes the words out of your mouth; the kind that’s so relatable it seems like you could’ve written it
I like listening to this song when I feel upset about how unfair the world is. I don’t know what it is but there are some incredibly beautiful notes in your song and they help me feel happy again. Thank you Madeline.
I grew up with parents that didn’t want me around and a family that brushed me off and friends that only tolerated me and boyfriends that only wanted sex and others that took advantage of me thank you for somewhat giving me the power.
This song has captured my heart 😭😭 It makes me feel like crying, singing, swaying...It has so much emotion in it, and I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels that, and it's so calming.
Thank you Madeline for this absolute gem.
You're an inspiration ❤️❤️❤️
You’re not the only one
I'm crying too 😭😭😭
@@tephusx and the video is so perfect 😭😭🥺
This song basically sums up most of my relationships, with parents, my sister, past relationships, my childhood. It fits me so much :)
I love this song so much. I've heard it everywhere and finally found the original. This hit me hard as I've always struggled to "fit in", dealt with bullies, and even became the bully in an attempt to be accepted. I had felt awful for the longest time and hated myself for becoming the very thing that plagued my existence for someone else. This song touches that part of me that remembers my young heart learning that being alone is better than becoming a horrible person--and even then I'll never be alone if I'm true to myself. The reassurance in that belief, that I'll be better and kinder from now on, gets me emotional everytime 🥺💖
Love this song, absolutely beautiful and love your message. Hits close to home.
My mom always told me “you hold the pencil that writes your story” meaning that you can change it and rewrite it however you want to. I added this part “But I don’t like pencils. It can be erased. You need to use a sharpie to make that change permanently or you’ll always have that room to go back on your word. “
On another note,
I’ve always wanted to sing onstage, singing is a passion of mine! I love it more than life itself.
IS THIS GONNA BE ON APPLE MUSIC TOO PLS I HOPE SO THIS SONG IS SO AMAZING 😭
absolutely! all streaming platforms.
Disappointed it’s only 2 minutes. Hate how artists are doing this now.
@@julleerainmay1578 Some songs are just meant to be short and making them longer would just be hard or dampen the meaning
@@yuxutin absolutely
This is so good it made me cry. As someone with ADHD I relate to this way too much.
Girl same
IM WITH YOU GUYS. I ALSO HAVE ADHD, I SWEAR THE KIDS AT SCHOOL ACT LIKE IM A ALIEN I CANT HELP I WAS BORN THIS WAY.
rejection sensitivity disorder (RSD) sucks so much
I feel so bad
I have Adhd too
Never had a song that made me breakdown in tears so hard like this one did. Geuss it just hit home for me. My whole life I've been told I'd be just like my avusive father and this song brought some comfort and strength in my tears
I'm in love with this person. The voice. The melody. The lyrics. The visuals. Everything.
I'll be proud to say one day when she becomes famous..I witnessed everything from the beginning 😊
"one thing I like about me is that I'm nothing like you and I never will be" this part I truly feel with...
I found this song in a youtube ad🤣🤣🤣. All seriousness this really was a phenomenal song very unique, original and fresh. Keep it up girl🙏🏾❤️.
I found this song on an Instagram reel of a Tiktok (that's very meta, no pun intended). It reminds me of a lot of people in my life, but especially my parents. I wasn't verbally abused, but my mom was and my siblings and I were neglected and manipulated by both parents. We weren't allowed to have a thought about either parent without the other one taking us out of the situation and making it about them and their issues. My older sister and I have grown a lot and people tell me and remind me everyday that I am the most empathetic and emotional person they've ever met, and how I am their rock. I will never be like the monsters that raised me, and I'm happy about that. I know who I am and I don't need the bullies, the voices, my parents, my brother, my family, my exes, I don't need anyone to decide that for me. Even now as I write this I'm sobbing, and I doubt it'll reach you, but this reminds me that I broke a long line of tradition and my children's inheritance won't just be pain and neglect.
I love this song it’s so calming and relatable ♥
This song has been on loop for 3 days. It is my saving grace leaving an abusive relationship. Thank you for creating.
I just realized the chorus is supposed to be “name one thing you like about yourself” when you feel bad about yourself and it makes it mean so much more 😭
What a breath-taking video. So so pretty and well done. "One thing I like about me is that I'm nothing like you" powerful lyric!
Song's not even out yet but I have a feeling it'll be catchy 💕 Keep up the great work!
Premiere is over, and it's great. This and August are great jams.
I really really hope an album is in the works because I'm in love with your sound and I need more!!! ❤️❤️❤️
There will be an album with more like this!?
@@tokyorose8693 I said "I hope" bc I'm not sure but she get signed so that typically means an album is coming. I'm living for it!!
The line " you care the less the more damage you've done" hits so deep.
It hits my right in the soul.
I just cut off my 7 years of friendship and I’ve never been happier and this song really expressed how I felt for all those years
Love this song so much!
This song is seriously amazing! I remember seeing Madeline in concert for the first time and just being blown away. I already have all the lyrics to this song memorized.
I absolutely adore "kicked me out my own sentence" it's such a perfect way to explain how it feels to always be the friend that people talk over and ignore
This is so beautiful and written so good 😩, the part in the video where you’re stood next to those two girls talking and they don’t acknowledge you hit hard. That feeling has never left me
"One thing I like about me is that I'm nothing like you and i never will be"😢😢😢 never change who you are just to fit in. There will be people that will accept you for who you are and in the end it will all be worth it❤❤❤
I have been waiting for this song since the first teaser/clip on instagram and it did not disappoint at all. i am in love with the cinematography and music and ugh you’re perfect i love you
This song frames growing up for me in ways only someone else who lived through the same would understand. I'm so thankful to see artists like you popping up, I feel a lot less alone.
I discovered this song on Tik Tok and had to trace it to the source... what a great well written and sung piece of musical art... this is a song for people to feel and heal too... nicely done
This song sets me free. It makes me feel like I can overcome anything
I cried the first time I heard this song. This is everything I feel about my older brother. He's so controlling and he gaslights me and picks on me and instigates me and threatens to hurt me all the time. He gets in my face and clenches his fists and he screams at me in front of our parents and they can't do anything about it bc he's 18. I'm falling apart. He's tearing me apart. I hate myself for letting him affect me. I'm just so tired. So. Very. Tired. Thank you so much for this song. It really helps💙
I had this song on repeat 10 times, and I can't tell how much this song makes me happy to feel that i am not alone. I have very high anxiety, I am struggling to find any friends that likes me for ME! where I can be weird, dress my style and NOT GETTING judged by how I look or what I say... I WILL NOT PRETENT TO BE SOMEONE I AM NOT!!!
I love this so freaken much!
Here goes 10 repeats more
I have major social and regular anxiety with high functioning autism and i finally have over come it after being homeschooled for two years and never leaving my bedroom due to a massive autistic burnout that made me super depressed and crocheting the same thing over and over again in my bed everyday as a 12 year old girl. Im now almost 14 and went to the hospital because of physical problems and my anxiety was horrible until i went inside and i was ok, i now went to the mall today with only major anxiety while just about to go in but after that i was totally fine! Im so proud of myself and i believe that there is not a god or jesus but there is something up there beyond what the eye can see because the day i prayed that 2024 would be a new and improved year in 2023 during the darkest of my life after being targeted, sexually harassed and tortured by adults and kids at school for 7 years i am finally away and have found myself and i like to think my trauma is what makes my life and my future better because it does, it has made me as mentally mature as a 22 year old as my therapist said and i have the mental capacity of a person that has gone through hell and back.
And to sum that all up, this song is extraordinarily relatable and your trauma is what makes your future the best it could be❤
When I heard this song on tiktok I definitely had to come here. This song really hits hard if you're unaccepted by the society or your own family
This song just hits deep on so many levels, can’t wait to figure out the chords to play it on uke :)
Saw an ad for this a while back and just found it again because I just found out a group of girls I thought I was friends with decided to start talking bad about me behind my back after kicking me from their gc. This is really comforting to listen to right now🥺
Not sure if anyone will read this but just for context: I started realizing they were vile and stopped talking to them…it’s been months and just now they removed me and chose to start talking about me. The one true friend I had from that chat let me know and we both blocked them on everything. Mentally recovering from the few things I did specifically see that they said is hard to do, but it’s good to know there’s a song out there that relates to it and that makes me feel understood. Like I’m not alone and that people can just be terrible to make themselves feel better, and it’s not a reflection of who you are♥️ the ending of the mv makes me happy too. It reminds me of the few friends I do know I can trust that are like me and know who I really am
This song makes me feel like I’m not alone. Madeline, your voice is so beautiful. It’s so soothing and comforting. It gets rid of all my anxiety and makes me feel safe.
I keep telling myself "one more time" as I replay this masterpiece.
you don't understand how important and healing/nurturing my inner child this is to me.
this is by far one of my favorite songs its so relatable and sounds so good
*Madeline The Person has somewhat similar visual and vocal styles to Melanie Martinez! This song is great.*
Being on this video was an HONOR. what a legend ❤️❤️❤️
I just wanna say thank you , as someone who suffers from epilepsy, and anxiety , this calms me and soothes me more than you will ever know , thank you just thank you
My older sister has had epilepsy since 11 and she's now 23 you are strong ❤❤ keep going 😊
I LOVE THE WAY U SLOWLY GET DEEPER
Being someone with eczema or skin disease, it is hard to make friends and bullies come from every direction. This song really helps me forget about the bullies and focus on myself 😊
I can be your friend if you don't mind. Need a besty🥺🥺
your lyrics and voice are so hauntingly beautiful, chills every time
i’m actually obsessed the wait was worth it
This song makes me feel so heard! I've always been bullied because of how different and weird I am! And the lyric "one thing I like about me is that I'm nothing like you and I never will be" makes me think of my cruddy "family". But I've decided I like being different and I'm going to keep being different!!! Thank you for making this song, it reminds me that I'm good just the way I am!💗
I’ve just had 5 hour cry session with this song on repeat! Feeling enlightened!
You are gonna make it dear Madeline, your songs are healing ❤
I really loved this, istg, this is something that has been on my mind recently, even more after years of people telling me that I'm not what they expect or I'm not like them, and yeah, thank God for that I'm not like them
Alr adding this to my playlist and it hasn’t even been a minute 🥲
"You grabbed my hands and you smiled as you kicked me right out my own sentence"
That is a turn of phrase I needed to express myself. Thank you
I'm 19, autistic, and trans; I'm leaving for my second year of college tomorrow. I've been trying to forgive my family and recognize that I've hurt them too... but it's hard to do when we're so close to each other.
That bit about lost progress really hits home
Relateable and that's really great but that DEEP VOICE GOODNESS IN THE CHORUS THO
Edit: Also love how there is a story being told and not just the generic singing staring into the camera from 10 different angles
As a person who has Anxiety and always the one that people assume. I lost my two friends because they assumed me for nothing.i don't feel alone thank you!
I ran here from TikTok after hearing the one line and it has stayed with me since now I heard the full song and I am beyond obsessed!!! What a work of art!!😍😍😍🤩🤩
This song really made me feel better. I have a couple of mental illnesses, and this made me feel more accepted and I don't have to put on an act. So whoever sees this, I'm right here with you, right here
This song makes me feel better after growing up with a bad father❤idk how to say it but this song hugs the little girl in me that is sobbing after having her dad express his disappointment in her. Thank you so much Madeline for this beautiful and healing creation❤❤❤
I will never be like my dad. He’s rude, and cares only about himself.
you have no idea how strongly this song relates to my life. it reminds me of the 5 years I was bullied and changed myself for those people, i was 9-12. now i am 16 with new problems to deal with, this makes me feel known.
same:(( but yk what that’s just the past now we have to look forward to our beautiful future! It’s never good to be looking through the past every time
this song is important to me because last semester i left my old school to escape from the people who were mean to me. I have many stories, but the one that stands out to me was my orchestra teacher. i have been playing violin for 9 of my 14 years yet she would rank me as a low placement in the class for no reason at all. after my parents sent an email to her asking for her to elaborate, she said that i was the most disrespectful and ungrateful student she had ever had in her 17 years of teaching. Later in the semester, i auditioned for the all-region orchestra and i got rank 34 out of nearly 1,000.
I heard this song on a friends tiktok and I had to find the song and the singer. That subtle voice those harmonies it just flows together so beautifully. Madeline The Person your talent is magnificent! Your voice is beautiful and if you ever come out to do a show in Nashville I will so be there! I gotta hear this beautiful voice in person.
I've played this song 21 times on repeat. It speaks to me on levels I can't even explain. I have never heard a song made so perfectly for me and expresses my feelings so clearly. Thank you for this
Why is the clown candle so freaking cute at the end !!!
I’m so glad this song blew up I remember when I first heard this song it only had a little bit of views, this song deserves a lot of love because it expresses a lot of emotion and reveals the type of character people really are, the feeling of unacceptable because of something, I’ve been through something like this before but I know people have been through worse. Thanks for making this song it’s truly beautiful ❤️❤️
