    Everybody is talking about which lyrics call out to them the most, but I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this one: "Please give me instructions, I promise I'll follow." The line is just a small detail in comparison with all of the bigger ideas in this song, but that's what makes it so powerful to me. In the midst of the hopelessness and confusion, he's asking for instructions. And I don't know about everybody else, but when I'm at my worst, I find myself wishing somebody could just tell me how to be okay. I just want somebody to tell me that there's an easy answer, a switch I can flip to not have these thoughts anymore. _Please give me instructions, I promise I'll follow._

      The entire song stands out to me, but that line was definitely one of the big ones. I can relate to that line so much. I'm someone who likes to be in control of my life, so when it all feels out of control, I just wish someone would tell me how to get better.

    4:02 is my favorite line. The singer had been working but is still stressed and lonely and even though the therapist is saying their better, they don't feel like they are.
    Just that feeling of "if good deeds don't matter than I'll do the opposite" and that I can relate with, when I was in the darkest point in my life.

Yesterday she told me that even though our friendship has barely started, she enjoys hanging out with me and that I'm the kindest person she's met in a while. When she left I started crying and now I'm fighting back tears again. She's had a rough life, knowing I've helped her a little bit makes me feel immeasurably happy.
    In short, I'm moved. Thank you for this song.

    So, for me personally, this song represents one's frustration really well. You follow instructions, you're nice to those around you, you do all of this stuff, and yet:
    -The girl you like blows you off
    -The job you wanted doesnt hire you
    -The friends you have wouldnt understand how you feel
    -You can't explain why today of all days you're down in the dumps
    -The Bread you bought a week ago is already moldy
    -There's nothing good on TV anymore
    -And now the car wont start
    I know it gets a tad bit silly towards the end, but I think a lot of peoples view on depression is "Always Sad, all the Time." And while Sadness is a major factor, for some there is frustration. "Today hasnt been that bad! So why the hell do I still feel this way?"

      I think it comes with the belief in something like karmar and it's the only thing I can't relate to in this song.
      The only thing I hope for when I help someone is a smile or a thank you because this makes me extremely happy.
      But all the other things in life aren't often connected to the rest of your life.
      You shouldn't do good stuff and hope that you'll get rewarded, you should do them because they are good, decent and they light up the world for a person even if they don't realise it. They make life more durable and even enjoyable! I don't know what can be more worth than knowing you made some happy or feel welcome.
      From one of my most favorite fictional characters:"The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.”
      Your good deeds still matter for some out there. I hope that a great person like you will also meet nice and great people and that you get something "back" from what you spend.
      You can call it karmar but I call it an amazing person. We forage our own happiness but together and I kinda love that thought.
      I enjoyed your Ted Talk =) (hope you like mine)
      Keep it up buddy if you need someone to talk you can find someone, we'll be here.

    Why do bad things happen to good people?

    • @attalan8732
      @attalan8732 5 ปีที่แล้ว +257

      Because the reward of goodness is not happiness, it is growth.
      When you look back on your life, you find that the most valuable lessons were learned when bad things happened and you developed a stronger character.
      It is no coincidence that the most good people whom ever lived, whether real or mythological, suffered the most. At the end of the day they achieved happiness, but only after continuous and painful growth. ie. The sharpest sword is forged in the hottest fire. The journey towards strength (not necessarily physical, more like strength of character) will result in you growing into a person worthy and capable of happiness, just as a sharp sword serves you well in battle.
      It is a mistake to assume good intentions will be rewarded with instantaneous 'good karma', just as it is a mistake to expect a pat on the back for climbing the first 100 metres of a mountain. The entire 8 kilometre journey is one of pain and suffering, struggle and unrewarded sacrifice - but it is worth it when you reach the summit.
      The bad people who are rewarded for their actions are those who stop a bars and resorts along the way to the summit. Sure, they are 'happy' but they are going nowhere and one day the martinis and saunas will become meaningless. The dejected and the cynical are those that decide to turn back, having received blow after blow on the way up the mountain.
      Good people are the people who keep on climbing that damn mountain of suffering, despite the lack of apparent reward, and the constant onslaught of hostility from the environment. But they stand above everyone else when they reach the top.
      It is a long and painful process, and it would be nice if we were to pat each other on the back every so often, but regardless, we must keep trudging on. For the summit.

    to all the lost souls reading this:
    did your best friends just start ignoring you? did you just fail your exams despite all the all nighters and sleepless days? was your dog just put down? did you argue with your family again? job interview didn't go well? wallet empty again? that one person you'd die for not talking to you as much as you'd like? embarrass yourself in front of everyone with a sudden panic attack?
    i know you feel like crap. i know you want to crawl into bed and stay there forever. you might wanna lock yourself up and cry forever. well, i've been reading some of the other comments, and a lot of em' caught my eye. " i feel this, " " this is so relatable it hurts so bad, " they really just spoke to me, but the ones that hit hardest were along the lines of " why do good things happen to bad people? "
    well...i know you can't smile. i know it stings like hell and i've been there, i've been there too, so many times. kicked to the dust by ourselves, wondering why life treats us, of all people, badly as we curl up in a ball, crying for the thousandth time.
    i'm no therapist. i'm no professional. i won't try and reassure you, i wish i could. but here's a reminder.
    when i was in kindergarten, i had almost no friends. everyone despised me for being such a crybaby and i was alone most of the time. the friends i did have went to different primary schools when we all turned seven.
    moving three years into the future, in primary three, i remember one scene so vividly, sitting in class, drowning in my own salty tears as the teacher continued teaching, as the bully behind me continued to taunt me, the " are you okay?? "s and " she's so weak... "s coming from all around me. time skip two more years.
    i lost my dog.
    last year my depression almost destroyed me from the inside, my grades and school stress from the outside. i came home sad every day, lonely and anxious, watching as friend after friend backstabbed and left me. i felt like such a failure every time my family scolded me, and receiving my end of the year grades was a cherry to top the massive sundae of self hatred. i was going to a school i wouldn't have any friends in, i was going to be by myself.
    secondary school. i've finally made friends and i'm finally happy with myself. but then they start arguing over boys. their jealousy tainted the air with its poison, i stood by as they ignored me one by one. i fight on, buying them stuff and trying to support them and lending them things when they so desperately need it. now we don't talk anymore. i had a break down in january, who was i even? why didn't they want me? i found a letter one girl was writing, " she's so annoying... i don't wanna be friends with her... " and so she left. the other did too. and to make matters worse, i fail two subjects and barely pass several.
    but look. i'm sitting at my desk now, a week before my best friend's birthday. the friend i love so dearly. two months have passed. i run to her class every day after school just to talk, each and every recess is filled with laughter as the whole friend group tells stupid jokes and laughs about the most pointless things. i couldn't love any other people more. my grades are improving, not rapidly but they are.
    things are going to be okay, alright? when this whole coronavirus thing is over, go make some new friends. get a study buddy or ask a friend / sibling to tutor you. your dog is watching you from puppy heaven, and they love you still. your family cares, work something out. try at another job. maybe do some freelance work for a couple bucks, or ask trusted ones for help. unrequited love is temporary, it will hurt but you are so, so strong and beautiful and brave and you will get past this. confide with loved ones about your anxiety, i'm sure it will help.
    everything will be fine. trust me.

    I don’t mean to blabber on but this song spoke to me on a certain level
    I’ve always been the shoulder to cry on for all my friends and even some family members. I’ve helped people with self worth issues, I’ve talked someone out of suicide, I’ve talked a friend through several breakdowns and been an ear as they word vomit about their problems and I’ve either just listened or helped them through it. But even with all the thanks I get I still sometimes feel like I’m just going through the motions, like my words of love and encouragement mean nothing and I shouldn’t have even tried, I sometimes feel like a useless hollow piece of junk
    But then I them smile and hold me tight with happiness in their eyes and I realize
    So what if I’m not showered with gifts and awards, I’m not doing this for reward, I’m doing this because I want to see others smile and go through life with joy. Thanks to them I am still the same optimistic man I am today

It's something I can't put into words except, "I don't know why I'm sad". But ik I have people around me who care it's just like the song/AJR says, when you get sad thoughts and don't know if you can fend them off. I just hope I can get to the end happily ya know? I'm glad I'm helping everyone out but it just feels like after I'm done listening to everyone else's problems and helping them out, nobody is there for me, and I fade into the background and become, for lack of better words, "the own side character of my own life". Sorry if that sounds selfish dude, but I just want the mental and emotional pain I cause myself to stop

    How I sing the last part
    **breathe**
    To give me some diagnosis of why I'm so hollow
    Please give me instructions, I promise I'll follow
    I tripped on my ankle and **breathe** fractured my elbow
    But doesn't that mean that the tour's gonna sell though?
    **breathe**
    I try to explain the good faith that's been wasted
    But after an hour it sounds like complaining
    Wait don't go away, can I lie here forever?
    **breathe**
    You say that I'm better, why don't I feel better?
    The universe works in mysterious ways
    But I'm starting to think it ain't working for me
    Doctor, should **breathe** I be good?
    Should I be good this year?

    This song is just a whole mood. I'm 32 and my childhood overall just sucked. It consisted of bullying at school and family problems. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at 4 and I think I reminded my dad of my mom too much (she has it as well). He cheated on her with my now stepmom and my relationship with both my dad and stepmom was dicey up to a few years ago. I believe my parents would have eventually gotten a divorce and I know it wasn't all me but I do think that I did have a portion in why it ended up happening. My whole school life I was targeted as that weird kid and was shunned and bullied. I only had one friend. She got targeted because she was my friend and had to move schools to escape. I never blamed her and just wanted what was best for her, but it was hard being alone. Now I am a successful member of society. I hold a full time job, pay my bills, and get along cordially with my dad and stepmom. I have a good friend. All the medication I took from my childhood for the bipolar had the side effect of me having both long term and short term memory loss so I don't remember the specifics of my childhood but I remember the emotions. Tiny pinpricks of light in overall a large, dark rain cloud that filled the sky. So, although life just freaking sucks sometimes, it does get better. There's going to be times in which you don't want to get out of bed or you feel worthless and as if life is not worth living. It is. Remember that there is always at least one person that cares for you and wants what's best for you (even if you haven't met that person yet). Although life may be horrible right now there is so much that you will discover and bring you joy if you fight and perservere. To anyone that reads this I hope life is treating you well and I wish you lots of love. God bless! ❤

    Best AJR song ever. Love them. They played an un-publicized show here in my town of Valparaiso, IN this summer for the University staff and students, and my ex works at the University, so she invited me to go. Totally amazing show! Free food, rides for kids, they went all out (the college, that is). Their trumpeter, JJ, sat with us during the opening acts, which put my son on cloud 9, as he plays the trumpet, and follows all of JJ's music, and has learned the beginning of "Burn the house down" The whole experience was surreal. (but they didn't sing "Karma") Love AJR

      Ari's World Source? The lyrics on the video make no sense. Can’t even hear the “d” in “and” pronounced at all. Sounds a lot more like “Can I lie here forever?”
      Also, sometimes the creators themselves write the lyrics wrong. Set it Off wrote the wrong lyrics to one of their songs in their own special edition, so they’re not infallible.
      Edit: apparently their latest song “bang” had a reference to this song, where it specifically says “I’m way too young to lie here forever.” It pretty much confirms that Karma’s lyrics are “Can I lie here forever?”

  • @theawkwardfan1671

    This song makes me remember when I was 12 years of age. I would always keep things in because I cared too much for others. I would always listen to their problems when they didn’t want to hear mine. That lead to me breaking down on my own a lot. I told my family about it once but all that came from them was judgment but I go on smiling.
    I hated myself for breathing and wouldn’t be who I am today without my sister to help me get through things even though she didn’t really care, she cared more than the average person. I had friends but most of them were fake and only used me because I acted like I was nice . My parents ignored every sign and wouldn’t let me see a doctor or therapist. I had gotten used to smiling through the pain and getting anxious around people for fear of them judging me.
    My family was complicated and my mom and dad didn’t have the best relationship. I was the middle child. I always got good grades in order not to disappoint them but they didn’t care and ignored my hard work. When I got bad grades they’d at least pay attention but they would scold me a lot
    I hate the use of the word perfect because my classmates would use it too much on me back in school. I was someone they knew almost nothing about but just because I smiled a little and got good grades, they would assume I was perfect. I felt like not disappointing them either which lead to me having to hold more in. Thanks to holding everything in I cried less than my older sister who is known for having tough skin even now but I cried at the very least, yearly.
    I once broke down in front of my mom and when she asked why I was crying I tried to explain but halfway in, she walked away. Whenever I try to let my feelings out, I have no way of doing so. My phone is something that brings me entertainment so I find myself on it for longer than I need to be because I can’t rely on people.
    I also told one of my best friends who I consider family how I felt. I told her I felt depressed. She responded by saying “ how do you know you’re depressed if you haven’t been told by a doctor.” She started going on and on about how I wasn’t depressed. The only though that went on in my head was do I need a doctor to tell me I want to die? I didn’t tell her though and went on smiling. I didn’t know who I was and wanted to be so I would always get attached to people who weren’t like me in most ways like my sister and cousin who ignored me most of the time.

    With everything going on right now, this song hits too close to home. I’m a college student, and I was in a very good place. I was surrounded by people who showed me love and made me feel good. I was working towards the goals I want to achieve. Now it feels like all of that was stripped away. Regardless of Facetime and online classes, it still feels like this. It feels like right when I was doing good it was taken away. I know that’s a really negative mindset and I try not to stay in it for too long, but this whole situation is giving me this sense of dread in my stomach. I know it will be over eventually. It’s just the not knowing when that’s getting to me. Thanks for reading if you did, I just needed to let it out :)

Yet they are the closest thing I have got to friends. Then I go home and I have to deal with my family, and I can barely take how they look at me already, so I can’t get help until I am able to leave the house because no one but me would care.

    But what if sad thoughts come and I can't stop it
    Bye, I don't wanna say bye
    If only I could keep you in my pocket
    To give me some diagnosis of why I'm so hollow
    Please give me instructions, I promise I'll follow
    I tripped on my ankle and fractured my elbow
    But doesn't that mean that the tour's gonna sell though?
    I try to explain the good faith that's been wasted
    But after an hour it sounds like complaining
    Wait don't go away, can I lie here forever?
    You say that I'm better, why don't I feel better?
    The universe works in mysterious ways
    But I'm starting to think it ain't working for me
    Doctor, should I be good?
    Should I be good this year?

    This song means so much to me, I always try to be a good person, I say thank you and your welcome, I say yes ma'am, no ma'am, and yes sir and no sir, I hold the door open for people, offer the few friends I have advice, try to be there for them when they're going through shit, yet still, I was born fucked up, I had problems with my ears when I was young, followed by problems with my teeth resulting in me having silver crowns on all of my teeth as a child, which made it hard to make friends, as they scared people. Then when I was in third grade, I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease, and felt like it was my fault, at that point in my life, I was a pretty shitty person, so to be fair, all of that, I deserved. I spiralled into a pit of self loathing and depression, and reflected, realized I was a shitty person, and tried to reform myself, that was around eighth grade, I tried to kill myself, failed, and things started to look up briefly, I started high school, made some new friends, but then they moved away, or stopped talking to me after ninth grade, I stopped talking to people, and before I knew it, I was right back where I was two years ago, in a pit of spiralling self loathing and depression. I learned that when I was four, my sister molested me. I always remembered that in the back of my mind, I never mentioned it to anyone because I thought it was just an awful dream, and I'd get in trouble, but I told my (other) sister, and she told my mom, who confirmed that that did indeed happen, and that was one reason she didn't live with us anymore. I continued to live, thinking about all of these things that I'd been through in my short 15 year life, and wondered if living was even worth it, I mean, if all of this happened in the short span of 15 years, shouldn't much more shit have happened to me by the time I'm 30? 45? I couldn't tell if life was worth living if this was it. In the following two years, I've been diagnosed with osteonecrosis, lost the rest of my friends, missed nearly a half a year of school due to health problems out of my control, nearly failed that grade, and missed even more school the following year, again, due to health complications out of my control, and that's been my life, despite my best efforts at being a good, decent human being, I'm still leading this sort of a life. I'm somewhat sick of it.

    This song. This song has helped me through a lot, and I don’t mean in boredom/art block etc. i mean it has *helped* me.
    About a year ago (June) my mum had a heart attack. She was hospitalised up to my birthday and didn’t get to do anything she normally does. My family did it and it was the best birthday every, to be home and with my mum but.. when she had her heart attack. I wasn’t with her. My sister did. My older sister. And when she ran in telling me to come help this is what she yelled… “she’s not breathing”
    Those words will stick to me forever. She’s fine now. Everything’s fine. I sometimes wake in the night of when I saw her. On the floor. A grown ass man giving her chest CPR. it haunts me. I haven’t told anybody this, only strangers on the internet. And all through this, when she had her heart attack I went my aunts and I listened to this song at night, and cried, I listened to it every night since. Every night of every June-September.

    This song is so relatible to me. Even though I have been good and fair to those around me, they still end up back stabbing me. I recently was brocken up with and my best friend stopped being my friend. Some might say I'm overreacting, but it doesn't feel that way. Now they are both going behind my back and driving those I love away from me. I don't know how to feel anymore. The part of the song "Fine. Oh no. Everythings fine." Really stand out to me, I just started realizing how much I actually say these things to people. And at the end, "Doctor, should I be good? Should I be good this year?" Is also relatible, I'm starting to feel like being nice isn't working anymore. I don't like to be that "depressing person" in the comment section, but I honestly sometimes feel like the world or the "universe...Isn't working for me" I feel like everything's against me now.
    I'm so sorry for this paragraph, but I don't have anyone else to vent to....
    I hope everyone is having a nice life and isn't affected by the corona virus!
    Stay Strong!

      Hey, don't feel the need to apologise just for being honest about your feeling. How you feel is and should be validated. And you're not overreacting, people just have different priorities and breaking points, what seems like overreacting to one person can seem like the end of the world the other, and that's fine.
      I'm not a psychiatrist, hell, I'm not even legally an adult yet, but if I know something is that you are allowed to feel the way you do, and you don't always need rational reasons for it. Or any reason, for that matter.
      For example, my best friend completly would've ignored me for two weeks if I didn't keep in touch with him and kept cancelling last-minute for scheduled talks. This caused me to reflect on my past relationships a few days ago, and I felt like I gave more to anyone then they give back to me, and I, too, considered to stop being nice and understanding if I'll just feel like shit as a result, but shutting off from everyone wasn't an option, at least for me. There's more to it, obviously, but I don't wanna ramble too long.
      Most people listen to these kind of songs because the world and the people around them fucked them over, but being a jerk is not a healthy defense mechanism.
      Don't forget that you are allowed to feel uncertain, or bad, or angry, because your feelings are valid, and they should be.
      I am fortunate enough to have someone to vent to, but if you don't, that's fine. Everyone has different ways of coping with this stuff, and if you want to vent in TH-cam comment sections, go right ahead. Or you could always try talking to a psychiatrist, that may help if you feel like you have no-one else to turn to.
      And you don't have to apologise for feeling a certain way, you're human after all, you're allowed to have emotions. And you certainly shouldn't feel like you're problems are a burden to others. Hopefully people will try and support you, like I'm trying to with this message that's getting a bit long. I can tell you're a good person, don't change that; we need more people like you, especially nowadays.
      I hope everything works out for you, you deserve it.
      Stay safe, and all the best to you.

    This song perfectly captures the frustration in trying to deal with mental illness, you can be doing everything right, the medication, the excersize, the therapy and the healing still takes sooo loonngg. It can be really discouraging
    I was in a rly bad place a few years ago and it took 6 whole months of doing "everything right" before i saw ANY improvement. And 2 full years to actually feel NORMAL and then another year before i was actually thriving again.
    This song really captures the "why am i still hurting when im doing everything right" feeling. Healing takes time, lots of time, but youll get there.

    These past three years had been a little horrible for me...
    I had people by my side who called friends who treated me horrible, but I didn't walk away from them so I wasn't alone...
    A boy I liked just treated me horrible, but I didn't realize it until my current best friend made me realize that I didn't have to be with those people who hurt me just to not feel lonely.
    I was always worried about what they will say, I am very shy to make friends, but I realized that there were really people who loved me without hurting me, that's how I stayed next to my best friend Bernard and I started talking to another friend named Daniel.
    Everything seemed to be improving, until in May I realized that I liked a girl who had started talking to me very recently. Since then I began to question myself and my self-esteem low enough... My friend Bernard supported me no matter what and that made me not start to hate me.
    Everything went smoothly until September came, I was talking to the girl I like and she told me that she liked girls. I took advantage of my opportunity and told her what I was feeling for her, she left a little confused, I thought still had a chance so I gave her a letter asking her to be my girlfriend... She just rejected me.
    Obviously it hurt, because she was the only friend that I had (Girl)
    I was quite sad to lose his friendship, that I decided to tell him that everything had been a confusion on my part, I think it was the worst mistake I could make... She believed me, she just told me that she was going to distance herself a little from me.
    *That's where it all started...*
    I felt sad all the time, I pretended to want to be alone when I really didn't want to, my friend Bernard knew what I was going through and he stayed by my side, supporting me.
    After a few months, I had improved, I had made a good friendship with Rina (the girl I like) and everything seemed to improve again.
    Rina had told me a lot about herself, and I realized that she had been through a lot of bad things, so my promise at the time was to see her happy even though she wasn't with me.
    Rina is a very closed person, but I managed to make her a little more open with me and that helped her to improve emotionally. We went through many things together and I help her a lot to overcome things that hurt her, deep down I still liked her but I no longer wanted to tell her about my feelings.
    September came again, it seemed that everything was going well until Rina asked me for a distance ... I was just wondering what I had done to deserve that, she told me that she was going to distance herself from many people, but I was the only one who had stopped talking.
    Everything started to get worse in the following months, I felt sad all the time, I thought about changing schools and forgetting everything, but as always, Bernard was by my side supporting me.
    In December, everything seemed to be better with Rina, she told me more things that hurt her from her past and I continued to support her, despite what she had done to me...
    Many bad things happened to me while she did not speak to me, and I felt that I had not yet completely overcome what she had done to me. That and other things tortured me every day, there were times where I cried at school and she did not realize because she was talking to the person she liked.
    In those moments, I was wondering where was the karma I deserved, I think I have always been a good person and many bad things began to happen to me despite being a good person.
    I know this is probably not as serious as other things will be, but I consider all this as the worst stage of my life... (There are many things that I did not write here because otherwise the comment would be much longer)
    I think karma is finally giving me a reward, two months ago Rina told me that she like me and asked for forgiveness for everything she did, now we are girlfriends and we are helping each other overcome everything we've been through.
    If you read all this, thank you very much, I think I had to write all this to feel better about myself.
    And if you are having a bad time, remember that there is always darkness before dawn, there will always be someone who loves you and cares about you, you can go on

I've had problems with stress, anxiety, friends, family, and more. Everything in my life was just starting to get better I had the best friends in the world that understood me and loved me for me, my grades were almost perfect, i had moved to a new dance studio where i wasnt bullied like i had been for 5 years before. Everything was good and now everything's gone. This song really speeks to me and I think it does to you too. I just want to say were ever you are,whatever your going through, you will make it.

    Words cannot express how much of a mood this song is

    Anyone else like how the notes were expressed in "where the hell is the karma?"

    I love this song. Not only does it sound good lyrically but it also expresses so much pain and emotion that a lot of people hide. I hate talking and expressing my emotions to people. However, this song did it all for me.
    Thank you.
