She's imperfect, but she tries She is good, but she lies She is hard on herself She is broken and won't ask for help She is messy, but she's kind She is lonely most of the time why is this me
This song hit me in so many ways my mom and I were both servers for years then she got Dementia and I quit working to take care of her , my best friend whom I thank god is still here but the fire 🔥 is diminishing in both our lives not what we planned in life but something we may share.... but for now. Thank you Sara for speaking what a patient and family caretaker feel when both lose time in life... one who is slowly fading away and one who chooses to walk along side her on her journey till the gate of heaven open and finally she can rest🙏 and I learned what a gift and privilege I’ve been taught about how precious being of sound mind really is to be aware of and appreciated!!!🙏🙏 something many will never understand! FootPrints in the Sand!!
I didn’t realize that there were others out there approaching fifty who are feeling a spark of that old zest for life that we had when we started out as adults. Hindsight is 20/20 they say. It sure would be nice to rewrite an ending or two.
My Mom introduced me to this song, she said it reminded her of me, I suffer from Lupus, PTSD, but I always try to hide the bad times, I joke and make others laugh so they won't wonder if I'm okay. No one really understands me or my issues, just myself
This is my anthem for survival of narcissistic abusers. I miss me. I am so grateful for Sarah’s words. To all of us who have lost ourselves…. We are still beautiful and we are stronger than the girl we lost.
Over a year ago I escaped a toxic friendship with a narcissist. Looking back at who I was under their influence. I play an online game where I used to play healer. I can almost see that avatar on the chorus. Giving everything she could to protect those around her. Never wanting anyone to feel as bad as she felt. Sometimes risking her life to try and save everyone. Beating herself up if she failed. Due to the friendship breakdown I switched to play tank. Most in need role and learnt to take harder and harder hits that don't break me. I had to toughen up to survive as they tried to bring the world down around me. Now looking at the two avatars. The Healer who sacrificed so much. The Tank, who stands strong against all odds. My past and my present. Wishing I could of changed the outcome. Wishing I could of gotten them out sooner. But we move forwards together, ready to face what tomorrow brings.
When I was going through the hardest time of my life, thinking every day to commit suicide, I would sing to this song and long for the happy girl I once was. Years passed, I find myself happy again, and now I sing this song thinking about the girl who once was depressed and needed help. I sing for that part of me and grateful that I never took my life.
Believe it. You aren't the only person glad you're still alive... I don't know you, and vise versa but I do know that I utterly hate suicide and I just know that the world is a better place because someone fought the desperate urges to give in. People like you.
It's oddly comforting to scroll through these comments and see people who are or were suffering as I am. It truly makes a difference just knowing that others understand what I'm going through, even if our circumstances are all vastly different. It makes me feel less broken, like I can still pick up the pieces of myself and be whole again someday.
So who's up for a good old fashioned sit around and cry together? 💕 *two years later* Do y'all wanna start a group chat, because we all seem to be under the agreement that we need friends-
This is from Waitress, a movie that is based around a lady that works at a cafe. She bakes the pies, and also has a life of her own. Her husband, instead of loving her, he uses and beats her. She then falls in love with another man. But when she realizes she's pregnant, she has no clue what to do. She never wanted the baby, and she spent the money she was going to use for a baking competition, for the needs of the baby. There is a song called 'Dear Baby' in that movie, that is supposed to be the girl telling and explaining to her Baby the sad life it was born around.
I found this song the other week and immediately burst into tears, this could have been written about me, I too am a shadow of who I used to be, I don't recognise myself at all anymore. I can't thank you enough, Sarah, but sharing such a deep and meaningful song with us, it's made me feel truly understood for the 1st time. Just beautiful 💗
Seeing the comment section just proves that we can all relate to the song and change is constant.. For the person scrolling through the comment section, just keep going. You are loved 💓😉
"And you're not what I asked for. If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back. For a chance to start over. And rewrite and ending or two. For the girl that I knew." *...Never heard anything more relatable and that is an understatement.*
Its already 2021 but here I am still listening to this song ...who’s the same here??🙋 Edit: Yepp now its 2022 y'all. Hope everyone is safe and healthy Edit: have been late but its 2023. It's been a stressful year for me lately but still fighting. Hope everyone's still fighting for their lives too. Remember that our life is precious. Let's make our lives worthy
this song hits just too close to home. The first time i heard it i was sad and i ended up crying harder because thats exactly how i felt.. it is a beautiful song
Don't try to kill urself maybe ull get relaxed But wb ur parents the one that loves they will get heartbroken sis and if u need anyone then I will be with u 😊
It's actually a reference to the way she wouldn't deal with her problems and instead bake them into pies and serve them to other people so they become their problems instead of her own. She explains it earlier, in the opening up song.
I never knew about the musical or the movie, until coincidentally enough I heard this song when I became pregnant with my daughter. I was married to an abusive husband, fell pregnant with another man's child and oh my goodness to say that I feel this song in my soul, is an understatement. I ended my abusive marriage, gathered courage to leave and start a new life with my little one. Sadly my children's father is not around either, but I'm thankful for the children he gave me, and I'll never be alone now and my heart is full. I was married for 15 years, had 3 miscarriages during that marriage, and prayed so much to have children someday. God answers our prayers in mysterious ways sometimes. I may not have a beautiful house anymore or a husband, but I've made a home for my children and I, and I'm so beyond thankful for their presence in my life. They inspire me and motivate me every day, and literally they are the only reason I'm still here and my heart beats.
I'm singing the chorus in my bedrooms while crying, my mom suddenly get in and hug me, she says“ everything will be alright dear, let go of saddest thing that you feel to me, I will be right here for you" and I wake up and just realized it's all just a dream😢😢
Sometimes world to cruel for us , sometimes I think that I had enough of it and always want to put an end of all this, but I know I just can hold on for my life, somethimes I see dark that always around me, but I feel comfortable with it for years right now... But thanks for you word it's really lit my day up
@@yunakim4792 How are you now? It's been 2 months since you posted this message. When I replied to your comment even I was going through a lot, everything I saw was filled with complete darkness and I felt stuck but now I am able to find my way out of that darkness What about you? How have you been? ( sorry for late reply tho. I forgot to check my notifications)
I'm not pregnant but I really relate to the lines, "of the life that's inside her, growing stronger each day, 'till it finally reminds her to fight, just a little, to bring back the fire in her eyes, that's been gone, but it used to be mine". To me, these lyrics are talking about getting older and transitioning into adulthood. Lately my future has been seeming pretty dim, but the fact that I even have to opportunity of a future reminds me of my old self, the ambitious one who'd stop at nothing to reach her goals. The one who'd take her dreams to the world with no regrets, unafraid to step out there, into the unknown. I want to be that girl, or fight for her, at least.
This song hits home, for the last 3 years I’ve been very sick, right now i’m in remission. I have to say many times I was so sick and wanted to just stop, the hardest part was living alone and no one to be with me. Somehow I got through it just to have and within 2 months had another major problem I was still very sick everyday and had every test done by my Oncologist but no one caught it not even me, I was having a lot of chest pressure which we thought was from throwing up everyday so bad until one day I couldn’t do anything without sitting down so called Oncologist and he kept calling me back asking symptoms the last call he said get to ER NOW or he would come to my house and bring me, he scared me and I went turns out I was going into heart attack, my left side was 99.9% blocked and right side 70% blocked. I had to have 2 stents put in. He literally saved my life 2x’s . I am very great full to be alive but I also feel like I kinda lost me the real me, I don’t know where I belong anymore it seems one thing gets fixed just for another to turn up and I feel like i’m losing myself every time I feel like Finally starting to find me just to fight something else 🥲💖 This song hit home for me 💕
I really feel for this song. I wasn't aware that I have changed to a person I despise but in reality I cannot deny. I hate it when I realized I have changed. The girl I used to be, before this shenanigans happened, is the one I wished I can stay to be.
Sometimes it’s hard being a parent. Especially when raising a kid on your own. You don’t realize just how much of yourself you lost. How tired you are from doing everything on your own. And you can’t say that because you are shamed. Kids are a gift. I love my kid. He came into my life when I didn’t know I needed him to be. He gave me my strength back. Became my reason to keep fighting. I will always be grateful but I should also be able to say that even though I wouldn’t change this for the world. I’m tired. I miss the person that I use to be. But I know she is gone and I know she would be proud of who I am today.
What a beautiful story!!!♥️ She IS VERY PROUD of you! Not sure how old your child is BUT, trust me when I say, "in the blink of an eye"! You'll have years and years, to rediscover yourself. I had four babies, thought I'd never have time for myself, never know what my MY talents were. I'm 68 now, extremely HAPPY with who I am. I found out also that, I'm an artist😂 You are beautiful and doing the most important job life ask of us. Shaping another human! 👍
She is lonely most of the time I feel this, especially at school. Despite being filled with a thousand and some students, it’s hard to think that you almost feel invisible.
Trust me, they wont matter in the grand scheme of things. Focus on you, your talent, curiosity, interests and the right people will gravitate towards you. I wish I spent more time on those things when I was in school
I feel the same way and people say it won’t matter in the long run but it matters right now and right now is all I got...so does right now not even matter???
"She's imperfect but she tries" "She is good but she lies" "She is hard on herself" "She is broken and wont ask for help" "She is messy but..." "She is lonely most of the time" Wow good interpretation of me
For some people who suffer depression- Jungkook(BTS) - "Effort makes you. You will regret someday if you don't do your best now. Don't think it's too late but keep working on it. It takes time,but there's nothing that gets worst due to practicing. So practice. You may get depressed, but it's evidence that your doing good."
Sarah Bareilles is hands down one of the best when it comes musician's/artist's. I feel everything she says and her voice and piano skills on top of that !!! She seems so real and DTE
This song hits so deep. Describes exactly what I'm feeling, going through. How I used to be, my old life, taken away so fast by a small decision that I made. When you are young you don't tend to think of the consequences. Well, now I'm almost going to give birth, I left behind my family, my job, my friends, my studies, all because I had to move across the continent. I miss it all, most of all the person I used to be, reckless, adventurous, independent, bold, etc. I feel like I lost it all and that I'm trapped. I've been trying to hold up however I can, and control my emotions, but it's hard.
i am a man who just decided to leave everything behind, a good life, good job, i wasnt satisfied at all with everything i have done so far. i hate it all old routines, theres something inside myself to be out of himself, go further as I can, run for the joy and run for life. I could feel the song have a personal relation to me, he is used to be mine... another me that i get used to live with... he is old person who never have a seat in my presence now... but thanks.. that was me...shaped everything on me right now.
Adhitya Wisadha nice to know there is balinese here love this song..sometime life is just not like i expected too but be grateful it will change everythings
I don't know why I'm thinking about how i can't tell my friends when I'm sad? I'm always the happy one and when I'm not as happy as usual they don't even ask what's wrong they just say I'm being annoying.... 😢 anybody feel me?
I feel you so much. I'm not the happiest, but I'm the calmest, the one that people come to for advice and when they need someone to listen to them. But no one listen to me, they don't even try.
I know how you feel. So with time I developed a different way of letting my sadness out, and even though it's definitely not the best I can't change it anymore. Now I'm just this heartless person with my friends, and everyone really. I am angry when I'm sad the most...and they complain and I'm just like eh, you didn't care before, so now you get my anger. Lol keep your head up, and a person who will truly care will come along :)
I cried.😢😭 I cannot say that she used to be mine.Coz I still find that little girl,the messy and broken girl staring back at me,but she's trying to be stronger everyday.😇
What's beautiful about certain lyrics is HOW we, the listener, are able to relate. My life changed 19 years ago with a chronic illness. NOT life threatening, but I tend to think of it as life altering. I used to sing & as of the past couple of years sing in my HALLWAY & Post them. I knew as soon as I heard this that I WOULD " cover " it. I particularly like the part about how " sometimes life just slips in Through a back door ". I truly feel this is ONE of the most moving & poignant songs I've ever heard. Huge props to the lovely Talents of SARA BAREILLES ❣
I guess we all change for the better or the worst but despite how it turns out we will all reminisce those times we were in the past because our past is still a part of us. it still made the person we now see in the mirror
I discovered this song in my choir class when my teacher sung it and ever since that day I absolutely fell in love with this song. I love how it can show so much emotion and still tell a story. ♡♡♡
this song have a strong power over me, makes me cry every time I heard it. thanks Sara for this beautiful song that speak about the mess I have inside my heart
Finally a beautiful song that is true and meaningful!!! Its like she dedicated this song to each and every person on this planet (thankfully not me yet!) Its sad , true enough , but hopefully it will help everyone remember who they used to be............... Thanks for posting this!!! And go Sara!!!!
I am crying over the lyrics. 😭 All womens out there, if theres no one loves & appreciate what you are doing, I am here to wipe all the tears. Stay strong besties! Love from 🇲🇾
I'm crying while listening to this song. 😢 She's imperfect, but she tries She is good, but she lies She is hard on herself She is broken and won't ask for help She is messy, but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone, but she used to be mine. #imisstheoldme 🤦♀️
I used to be broken and used to be the girl on this song. A lonely sad soul. But hardships toughen me. I get up and fight and now somehow I can see the light that shines ahead. This song is amazing. There are women out there who experienced the same.
Me and my mom can relate... I have always been broken, mistreated, and misunderstood. Only if people can see what my heart really is like. And my mom after my parents divorce married an abusive man and me and her listen to this song cause each word always makes us think of each other 🙂😥🖤
Currently sat on a bench at the crematorium remembering my dad. He left us 35 years ago today (aged 42). Still feels like yesterday. My heart is still shattered 💔
dear Sara... i am a Man but your Art is so deep and sincere... merci !!! i feel Music is a ship in Unity with the Power of love through two paths who combine in gravity... to the Sovereingty in which i used to be mine....thanks little sister you are Great and i love You in the crown of the Voice ... merci 1001 fois Didier
Dear Bestie, I remember that night as if it were yesterday when you opened up to me. I really appreciate that because I can imagine how hard it was to sing it loud. You’ve put your whole heart into singing that song and got all the emotions out of you. I might not know everything about you but remember that I am always there for you. Your version is beyond compare! I have very high hopes for you and I wish you sang your version to a bigger audience. I believe in you! You deserve all the best. Love, Your friend
I'm currently 23 but this song brings me back to when I was a high-schooler. I grew up with a narcissistic mother and overall broken family with no father figure. I worked my ass off and still tried to get straight A's to get my mother's approval. Nothing worked and I was just invisible to her. I fell for someone online after high-school ended, I was going to go to college but my mother never supported me so I was lost when it came to paperwork. This person online was 3 states away and I just went for it, I moved away and my mother basically made everyone hate me in my family. Now I have no one and all I think about with this song is how close it is to how I was then and how I am now. I'm 7 months pregnant, engaged to the same person I fell for but still trying to light that flame of strength the girl I was had. She was so broken, IM broken, but she could handle it all more. I barely recognize myself..but I have to be strong for my daughter, she needs me. I won't let her ever feel how I did when I was a child.
I don't have powerful enough words for how in love I am with how beautiful my heart feels. I hear Sara's exquisite vocals, and I am taken to a peaceful, lovely place.❤
Describes me too. I just left my abusive ex and I have actual fear of what my life will be now. I miss the strong woman I used to be. I see glimpses of her but it scares me still. I hope you are doing just fine too ♥️
@@NewNameNaomi I feel that I am close to end too. Time is up. This song is beautiful, but listening to it has just made me feel worse. Shit! I really hope that you can get back to the strong woman you once were. Best wishes from London UK X
not so fine but i am fine !!! as what Jungkook from BTS said, “I can't just say, cheer up no matter what but in the midst of that difficulty, try to find that small happiness.”
As a mother, I feel this song so sad.. When responsibility of being a mom hits, you will tend to forget who you are.. Forget yourself all together because you have to be tough, to be strong to keep the family going.. The song is sad but I believe, I still have that girl in me, an optimistic dreamer.. I may not be perfect but will always try my best..
In 2019 I was performing my bird show at the Humboldt County fair in Eureka, CA. At the time, I was in a sort of feeling unaccomplished, feeling like a loser. After one of my shows, a lady named Bonnie came up and wanted a photo with my birds. It was Sara Bareilles' mother. This song sings to me and I am so honored to meet the matriarch. Beautiful!
I'm sitting here aged 60 remembering the girl I used to be before illnesses and time has ravaged this body and mind. The ghosts of my past still dance around me, but all I can see, is the girl that I lost in the mirror and its fading from my memory, I just want to hold her one more time.
As someone who lost his grandmother to Alzheimer’s when he was a young boy, this comment really resonated with me. I sincerely hope you’re doing alright.
i've just lost my internet friend she has to delete instagram for personal reasons and she texted me on snapchat and i asked too many questions and she had to delete me on snapchat too and i didn't get to say goodbye and tell her i loved her and i might never speak to her again she was my world she got me through so much this song reminds me of her even before this happened it made me think of her and i don't know if she's ok or anything she was my first thought sometimes im waffling but it's hard update: she came back last sunday, i love her so much :)
I had never heard this song before tonight. I’m actually watching the last season of American idol on demand and Sara came on to sing this song with another contestant. I wasn’t really paying much attention to the lyrics, just playing on my phone with the song in the background. The notes and vocal phrasing that she’s singing were enough to put a lump in my throat. I had to pull this video up to listen again and read through the lyrics. I’m a 49-year-old male And found myself sobbing. I’m at a point in my life where I’ve never been happier. I went through a lot of hard times over many years though. I think everybody in someway I can relate to the message of this song. One of the most beautiful songs i’ve heard very very long time. I am a musician who writes mostly progressive rock, but I think I might give a try at a heart wrenching ballad.
I generally feel that this is the best description of me. Every time I listen... “It’s not what I asked for. Sometimes life just slips in through a backdoor and carved out a person and makes you believe it’s all true. And now I’ve got you”
I came across this song while watching The Voice and a young man sang it so amazingly beautifully. It really resonated with me and I looked it up on utube and discovered Sara Barailles the most amazing singer. It has made me listen to other music she has made and I absolutely love her pure clear singing voice. I am entranced by her ❤❤❤xxx
She’s imperfect but she tries She is good but she lies She is hard on herself she is broken and wont ask for help She is messy but she’s kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone but she used to be mine Why do these lyrics remind me of black widow.
"When she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love" this lyric here hits very close to home for me. When I was a baby my father walked out on me and my entire life I have thought it was my fault, that I was not good enough. Because of that I am extremely closed off and never open up to people for I know I am nothing more than a burden. When my father was young something happened to him that made him incapable of loving, but he won't tell anyone what happened. He abused my mother and was so mentally abusive to me for not being there. I am barely even considered a teenager and so everyone tells me "you are a child you can't know trauma or pain" then why do I know it more then I know my own self?
This is my nth time singing along with Sara... and as always... I cried. 😢 What's with this song that keeps me coming back, like it was written all for me... all for me. 😢
The recognition of yourself in the lyrics is freeing. The song is hope put to a melody for all those who have been broken and put back together with times healing.
I used to listen to this when I was going through a really dark and rough time and now I'm singing this in the best place I've ever been looking back on how far I've come.
This reminds me of my best friend and I want her to know how loved she is every single time because she always tries so hard and never asks for help yet she’s always there for us.
I just heard this song today. And this definitely speaks what is inside my heart for so long. I lost the girl who loves life,who never gives up and who fights for her dreams even if it's risky to take. I don't know when I lost her but I want her back. I want you back,myself.... my true self
There are NOT enough superlative adjectives to properly bless this absolutely riveting 'Song about Life'...................Incredible Kudos to you, Sara!
This is one of the best lyric videos I've ever seen. It is all spelled correctly, easy to read and see, not distracting, perfect, on time transitions. Well done! I've never considered subbing to a lyrics video channel but now I'm considering it. Plus, this song has my ❤️
I used to be 26. So eager and hopeful. Dated a lot and was too forgiving and hopeful. I was beautiful. I was always so hard on myself and had self esteem issues. But I was always told I had a kind heart. I dated guys who were users. They weren’t anything special but I’d put them on a pedestal. They broke my sprint. I remember the girl who’d smile and the old gentleman at the parking garage would say how I had a beautiful smile and wanted to shake my hand and how they’d wish their sons would be introduced to me. I remember the the 9 year old girl who I was a big sister to who’d say how pretty I was. I never saw that. Men walked all over me. And now I’m 36. Single. Used. Broken. And tired.
i feel what you feel. But in beautiful life we have to through with patient and hope for tomorrow. Remember treat yourself better first before you treat another people .
reminds me who i was.. reminds me all those stories.. time flies so fast, and we didnt realise that we change so much already. i miss her.. can we go back to the old good times?
I discovered this by accident and now I’m sobbing. Not only does it exactly hit how I feel about myself, it reminds me almost exactly of a character of mine who had an accidental pregnancy that was high risk and ultimately ended in a miscarriage. I can just see her singing the beginning to herself, realizing shit is going wrong, then the rest of the song depicting her through her grief-ending with her singing the final verse as she clutches herself and cries.
This song makes me cry every time i hear it. It feels like it was written for me. I know you all feel the same that's why you're here. Virtual hugs for everyone. STAY STRONG 💞
The song is great, in a way many people can relate to the the words at some point in time in their lives. It can remind you of your past or describe your present struggles . I cried the first time I heard it.
This song breaks me every time. One of these days, I hope I can sing it all the way through without choking up. It's stunningly beautiful, but always heartbreaking.
This is relatable to anyone male or female who have been through things that have been broken to the core and have a hard time finding who they are now after everything. Sometimes so much happens that you forget who you were and believe what people tell you that you have become.
She's imperfect, but she tries
She is good, but she lies
She is hard on herself
She is broken and won't ask for help
She is messy, but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
why is this me
Relateable
You are great.
same my ex is with my friend lol I miss him=(
Same
@@Stormiskewl2 lol thanks this comment made me happier
Sara is literally one of the most underrated artists and totally deserves more... straight facts
Agreed
Factss!
This song hit me in so many ways my mom and I were both servers for years then she got Dementia and I quit working to take care of her , my best friend whom I thank god is still here but the fire 🔥 is diminishing in both our lives not what we planned in life but something we may share.... but for now. Thank you Sara for speaking what a patient and family caretaker feel when both lose time in life... one who is slowly fading away and one who chooses to walk along side her on her journey till the gate of heaven open and finally she can rest🙏 and I learned what a gift and privilege I’ve been taught about how precious being of sound mind really is to be aware of and appreciated!!!🙏🙏 something many will never understand! FootPrints in the Sand!!
I agree
That is so true. How can the music industry never appreciate her voice?? She is not just a singer, she is an artist.
This song literally makes you remember the old version of yourself that you lost. May we all find ourselves again, in the perfect time ❤️
I didn’t realize that there were others out there approaching fifty who are feeling a spark of that old zest for life that we had when we started out as adults. Hindsight is 20/20 they say. It sure would be nice to rewrite an ending or two.
Wow. Too true x
So true..this is so me😥
my thoughts exactly
I saw it like that too and maybe one day revisit the girl I once knew.
My Mom introduced me to this song, she said it reminded her of me, I suffer from Lupus, PTSD, but I always try to hide the bad times, I joke and make others laugh so they won't wonder if I'm okay. No one really understands me or my issues, just myself
Amanda Dyson Sounds like your mom does too, be blessed.
You are the best
I do❤
May God shine upon you in times of darkness.
God Bless you❤
Were all not depressed or suicidal. We just wanna be able to close our eyes and feel alright :)
I’m sorry but that’s making me a bit confused of life.
Yep, that is how i feel, not depressed, not suicidal, but at the same time not happy but lonely, sad and just wanting to feel alright and understanded
I-
Is all of the above an option?
Yes. I agree, some of us are just better at hiding it.
This is my anthem for survival of narcissistic abusers. I miss me. I am so grateful for Sarah’s words. To all of us who have lost ourselves…. We are still beautiful and we are stronger than the girl we lost.
That's exactly why I'm here. My narc husband just left me.... chewed me up and spit me back out. He destroyed me and now acts as if he never knew me.
This is me. 8 months and still healing. Stay strong.
Yup. I'm a victim of narcissistic abuse and this song really resonates with me because I lost myself
Here for the same reason. We will get even better than before ❤️
Over a year ago I escaped a toxic friendship with a narcissist. Looking back at who I was under their influence. I play an online game where I used to play healer. I can almost see that avatar on the chorus. Giving everything she could to protect those around her. Never wanting anyone to feel as bad as she felt. Sometimes risking her life to try and save everyone. Beating herself up if she failed. Due to the friendship breakdown I switched to play tank. Most in need role and learnt to take harder and harder hits that don't break me. I had to toughen up to survive as they tried to bring the world down around me.
Now looking at the two avatars. The Healer who sacrificed so much. The Tank, who stands strong against all odds. My past and my present. Wishing I could of changed the outcome. Wishing I could of gotten them out sooner. But we move forwards together, ready to face what tomorrow brings.
When I was going through the hardest time of my life, thinking every day to commit suicide, I would sing to this song and long for the happy girl I once was. Years passed, I find myself happy again, and now I sing this song thinking about the girl who once was depressed and needed help. I sing for that part of me and grateful that I never took my life.
I hope I can do the same one day
Needs more attention😊👍
Believe it. You aren't the only person glad you're still alive... I don't know you, and vise versa but I do know that I utterly hate suicide and I just know that the world is a better place because someone fought the desperate urges to give in. People like you.
This message gives me hope... thankyou..
@@secretglitches9641 that's it exactly... those desperate urges... they are so intense..
"She is broken and won't ask for help..."
whos broken?

It's oddly comforting to scroll through these comments and see people who are or were suffering as I am. It truly makes a difference just knowing that others understand what I'm going through, even if our circumstances are all vastly different. It makes me feel less broken, like I can still pick up the pieces of myself and be whole again someday.
She's still there. She's still yours and deserves the honor of your tears. Every single one of them. And they all help her heal and not be lost.
Woooooooooooooow! Truly comforting
@@gurmehar9546 Am so glad.
Your comment gave me the comfort I needed when i was crying. Thank you 💞
Fuck 😭 that was what I needed
This comment should be the sequel to the song lol XD👀😂🤭🥺💜💜💕💕
So who's up for a good old fashioned sit around and cry together? 💕

This is from Waitress, a movie that is based around a lady that works at a cafe. She bakes the pies, and also has a life of her own. Her husband, instead of loving her, he uses and beats her. She then falls in love with another man. But when she realizes she's pregnant, she has no clue what to do. She never wanted the baby, and she spent the money she was going to use for a baking competition, for the needs of the baby. There is a song called 'Dear Baby' in that movie, that is supposed to be the girl telling and explaining to her Baby the sad life it was born around.
Emma Loanzon Pretty sure this song was written for the musical version, not the movie
Janice Lam it was, I saw it last night. So good
is there any record for the musical drama? on youtube or another?
Emma Loanzon thank u told us the story
Emma Loanzon oh really? i dont think so theres nothing in here you are saying 😂 hehe mwah
She is lonely most of the time...... :( hits me hard
Same
Booooooooooooooooooooooo9oooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Changed all the she's and its me 100%
i am gutted
shes imperfect hit me hard asf
I found this song the other week and immediately burst into tears, this could have been written about me, I too am a shadow of who I used to be, I don't recognise myself at all anymore. I can't thank you enough, Sarah, but sharing such a deep and meaningful song with us, it's made me feel truly understood for the 1st time. Just beautiful 💗
I used to be this happy girl that believed in fairytales and happily ever after.
Wow have the times changed
Ybba_Playz, Me too!!
All part of growing up...sucks
This reminded me of they don’t make glass slippers from soho cinders
That’s so sad, Abby from Wii sports...
I am farting all the time
Seeing the comment section just proves that we can all relate to the song and change is constant.. For the person scrolling through the comment section, just keep going. You are loved 💓😉
"And you're not what I asked for.
If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back.
For a chance to start over.
And rewrite and ending or two.
For the girl that I knew." *...Never heard anything more relatable and that is an understatement.*
Its already 2021 but here I am still listening to this song ...who’s the same here??🙋
Edit: Yepp now its 2022 y'all. Hope everyone is safe and healthy
Edit: have been late but its 2023. It's been a stressful year for me lately but still fighting. Hope everyone's still fighting for their lives too. Remember that our life is precious. Let's make our lives worthy
Im stuck listening to this everyday.. for about 8 years now.. wish i could take it all back
I am listening to this in may of 2021;-; it juss hit different tho
same
Meeeeee
Well I only just discovered this song from a MLB animatic didn't realize it was 5 years old oof
this song hits just too close to home. The first time i heard it i was sad and i ended up crying harder because thats exactly how i felt.. it is a beautiful song
Shastiry Figueroa
Same here
Yes it is!
I am farting all the time
As a person who has server depression,high anxiety and strong ADHD, tried 3 times suicide,I can relate to the lyrics very well.
Don't try to kill urself maybe ull get relaxed
But wb ur parents the one that loves they will get heartbroken sis and if u need anyone then I will be with u 😊
Stay strong sis.
@@raon2139 yes stay strong
hey ! please don't kill yourself cuz u gonna regret it afterwards .......... every thing is going to be okay believe me or not
I hope ur still okay. U seem like an amazing person. Hey and I just saw ur channel and I'm Indian too!
and bakes in a beautiful pie, never heard anyone describe themselves in this way, what awesome lyrics...
It's also because it's from a movie/musical called waitress.
It is from "waitress" she baked pies for competitions.
Cannibal check
It's actually a reference to the way she wouldn't deal with her problems and instead bake them into pies and serve them to other people so they become their problems instead of her own. She explains it earlier, in the opening up song.
I never knew about the musical or the movie, until coincidentally enough I heard this song when I became pregnant with my daughter. I was married to an abusive husband, fell pregnant with another man's child and oh my goodness to say that I feel this song in my soul, is an understatement. I ended my abusive marriage, gathered courage to leave and start a new life with my little one. Sadly my children's father is not around either, but I'm thankful for the children he gave me, and I'll never be alone now and my heart is full. I was married for 15 years, had 3 miscarriages during that marriage, and prayed so much to have children someday. God answers our prayers in mysterious ways sometimes. I may not have a beautiful house anymore or a husband, but I've made a home for my children and I, and I'm so beyond thankful for their presence in my life. They inspire me and motivate me every day, and literally they are the only reason I'm still here and my heart beats.
I'm singing the chorus in my bedrooms while crying, my mom suddenly get in and hug me, she says“ everything will be alright dear, let go of saddest thing that you feel to me, I will be right here for you" and I wake up and just realized it's all just a dream😢😢
🥺
Don't worry I'm there for you
Just remember - somewhere far away from your place, a person wants you to be happy and prays for you everyday❤️
Thanks, I really appreciate it
Sometimes world to cruel for us , sometimes I think that I had enough of it and always want to put an end of all this, but I know I just can hold on for my life, somethimes I see dark that always around me, but I feel comfortable with it for years right now... But thanks for you word it's really lit my day up
Gotta feel the pain😔 once i dreamed my dad told me he was proud of meh.
It'll be fine, i swear, even if we dont see the end, it'll be fine
@@yunakim4792 How are you now? It's been 2 months since you posted this message. When I replied to your comment even I was going through a lot, everything I saw was filled with complete darkness and I felt stuck but now I am able to find my way out of that darkness What about you? How have you been? ( sorry for late reply tho. I forgot to check my notifications)
I'm not pregnant but I really relate to the lines, "of the life that's inside her, growing stronger each day, 'till it finally reminds her to fight, just a little, to bring back the fire in her eyes, that's been gone, but it used to be mine". To me, these lyrics are talking about getting older and transitioning into adulthood. Lately my future has been seeming pretty dim, but the fact that I even have to opportunity of a future reminds me of my old self, the ambitious one who'd stop at nothing to reach her goals. The one who'd take her dreams to the world with no regrets, unafraid to step out there, into the unknown. I want to be that girl, or fight for her, at least.
That is so me. You worded it so beautifully
Damn your words are so amazing! Thank you for this.!!
So me all of it and my son's are mine nuff said lol
Thank you for articulating my thoughts as well.
This song hits home, for the last 3 years I’ve been very sick, right now i’m in remission. I have to say many times I was so sick and wanted to just stop, the hardest part was living alone and no one to be with me. Somehow I got through it just to have and within 2 months had another major problem I was still very sick everyday and had every test done by my Oncologist but no one caught it not even me, I was having a lot of chest pressure which we thought was from throwing up everyday so bad until one day I couldn’t do anything without sitting down so called Oncologist and he kept calling me back asking symptoms the last call he said get to ER NOW or he would come to my house and bring me, he scared me and I went turns out I was going into heart attack, my left side was 99.9% blocked and right side 70% blocked. I had to have 2 stents put in. He literally saved my life 2x’s . I am very great full to be alive but I also feel like I kinda lost me the real me, I don’t know where I belong anymore it seems one thing gets fixed just for another to turn up and I feel like i’m losing myself every time I feel like Finally starting to find me just to fight something else 🥲💖 This song hit home for me 💕
I really feel for this song. I wasn't aware that I have changed to a person I despise but in reality I cannot deny. I hate it when I realized I have changed. The girl I used to be, before this shenanigans happened, is the one I wished I can stay to be.
I never said anything on here. So bty I use my maiden name.
Michelle Chrzanowski that's rude
llJenn Raltell. Miss I didn't write shit. someone else did. btw I use my maiden name.
Michelle Chrzanowski okay I see..

Sometimes it’s hard being a parent. Especially when raising a kid on your own. You don’t realize just how much of yourself you lost. How tired you are from doing everything on your own. And you can’t say that because you are shamed. Kids are a gift. I love my kid. He came into my life when I didn’t know I needed him to be. He gave me my strength back. Became my reason to keep fighting. I will always be grateful but I should also be able to say that even though I wouldn’t change this for the world. I’m tired. I miss the person that I use to be. But I know she is gone and I know she would be proud of who I am today.
What a beautiful story!!!♥️ She IS VERY PROUD of you! Not sure how old your child is BUT, trust me when I say, "in the blink of an eye"! You'll have years and years, to rediscover yourself. I had four babies, thought I'd never have time for myself, never know what my MY talents were. I'm 68 now, extremely HAPPY with who I am. I found out also that, I'm an artist😂
You are beautiful and doing the most important job life ask of us. Shaping another human! 👍
She is lonely most of the time
I feel this, especially at school. Despite being filled with a thousand and some students, it’s hard to think that you almost feel invisible.
Trust me, they wont matter in the grand scheme of things. Focus on you, your talent, curiosity, interests and the right people will gravitate towards you. I wish I spent more time on those things when I was in school
I feel the same way and people say it won’t matter in the long run but it matters right now and right now is all I got...so does right now not even matter???
Poppy I feel ya Im a little person in a big world and I feel lonely all the time but ull find ppl u love❤
I found my best friend by talking to him about a breakup and he was so there for me idk wut I'd do without him😊
Been there dear. Sometimes, it is better to be invisible. Don't get picked on as much.
"She's imperfect but she tries"
"She is good but she lies"
"She is hard on herself"
"She is broken and wont ask for help"
"She is messy but..."
"She is lonely most of the time"
Wow good interpretation of me
same :
same here....😖😢😔🤧🤧🤧
Ya, me too
For some people who suffer depression-
Jungkook(BTS) - "Effort makes you. You will regret someday if you don't do your best now. Don't think it's too late but keep working on it. It takes time,but there's nothing that gets worst due to practicing. So practice. You may get depressed, but it's evidence that your doing good."
Thanks a lot!!
Army vibes was what I needed ☺️
Words cannot explain my feelings 😔
But this song does
When your just casually singing then enters the chorus and just started sobbing because you realized the lyrics describes yourself.
Yea thats me hehe
I feel u... It's me, too. 😔

Sarah Bareilles is hands down one of the best when it comes musician's/artist's. I feel everything she says and her voice and piano skills on top of that !!! She seems so real and DTE
This song hits so deep. Describes exactly what I'm feeling, going through. How I used to be, my old life, taken away so fast by a small decision that I made. When you are young you don't tend to think of the consequences. Well, now I'm almost going to give birth, I left behind my family, my job, my friends, my studies, all because I had to move across the continent. I miss it all, most of all the person I used to be, reckless, adventurous, independent, bold, etc. I feel like I lost it all and that I'm trapped. I've been trying to hold up however I can, and control my emotions, but it's hard.
i am a man who just decided to leave everything behind, a good life, good job, i wasnt satisfied at all with everything i have done so far. i hate it all old routines, theres something inside myself to be out of himself, go further as I can, run for the joy and run for life. I could feel the song have a personal relation to me, he is used to be mine... another me that i get used to live with... he is old person who never have a seat in my presence now... but thanks.. that was me...shaped everything on me right now.
Adhitya Wisadha nice to know there is balinese here love this song..sometime life is just not like i expected too but be grateful it will change everythings
Adhitya Wisadha hugs
Adhitya Wisadha atleast we keep on going. We miss the old us. Hugs
Hope you are doing ok and are happy 😘
Banting setir jadi apa mas skrg?
I don't know why I'm thinking about how i can't tell my friends when I'm sad? I'm always the happy one and when I'm not as happy as usual they don't even ask what's wrong they just say I'm being annoying.... 😢 anybody feel me?
I feel you ....
Vicky Sirch Those aren't friends at all, I would suggest finding better friends :) You deserve to be heard just as much as anyone does!
I feel you. We, usually being the happiest one but no one recognize that the happiest person might the saddest person inside
I feel you so much. I'm not the happiest, but I'm the calmest, the one that people come to for advice and when they need someone to listen to them. But no one listen to me, they don't even try.
I know how you feel. So with time I developed a different way of letting my sadness out, and even though it's definitely not the best I can't change it anymore. Now I'm just this heartless person with my friends, and everyone really. I am angry when I'm sad the most...and they complain and I'm just like eh, you didn't care before, so now you get my anger. Lol keep your head up, and a person who will truly care will come along :)
This song literally describes "My Mother"
Bless you mum. Love her for as long as you have her; you will miss her when she’s gone.
🥰🥺
I cried.😢😭
I cannot say that she used to be mine.Coz I still find that little girl,the messy and broken girl staring back at me,but she's trying to be stronger everyday.😇
I don't want to be morbid, but I want this song played on my funeral.
Omg I just said this to myself yesterday 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🥺😭
I feel u 😭
Me too
Me too because this speaks the truth about me😭😭😭

What's beautiful about certain lyrics is HOW we, the listener, are able to relate. My life changed 19 years ago with a chronic illness.
NOT life threatening, but I tend to think of it as life altering. I used to sing & as of the past couple of years sing in my HALLWAY &
Post them. I knew as soon as I heard this that I WOULD " cover " it. I particularly like the part about how " sometimes life just slips in
Through a back door ". I truly feel this is ONE of the most moving & poignant songs I've ever heard. Huge props to the lovely
Talents of SARA BAREILLES ❣
I guess we all change for the better or the worst but despite how it turns out we will all reminisce those times we were in the past because our past is still a part of us. it still made the person we now see in the mirror
Well said
I discovered this song in my choir class when my teacher sung it and ever since that day I absolutely fell in love with this song. I love how it can show so much emotion and still tell a story. ♡♡♡
me crying at this hour and every single lyrics hits myself.
this song have a strong power over me, makes me cry every time I heard it. thanks Sara for this beautiful song that speak about the mess I have inside my heart
Finally a beautiful song that is true and meaningful!!!
Its like she dedicated this song to each and every person on this planet (thankfully not me yet!) Its sad , true enough , but hopefully it will help everyone remember who they used to be...............
Thanks for posting this!!!
And go Sara!!!!
Now, I've lost the battle too. A song for me I guess....
I am crying over the lyrics. 😭
All womens out there, if theres no one loves & appreciate what you are doing, I am here to wipe all the tears.
Stay strong besties! Love from 🇲🇾
I'm crying while listening to this song. 😢
She's imperfect, but she tries
She is good, but she lies
She is hard on herself
She is broken and won't ask for help
She is messy, but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used to be mine.
#imisstheoldme 🤦♀️
I used to be broken and used to be the girl on this song. A lonely sad soul. But hardships toughen me. I get up and fight and now somehow I can see the light that shines ahead.
This song is amazing. There are women out there who experienced the same.
Me and my mom can relate... I have always been broken, mistreated, and misunderstood. Only if people can see what my heart really is like. And my mom after my parents divorce married an abusive man and me and her listen to this song cause each word always makes us think of each other 🙂😥🖤
Currently sat on a bench at the crematorium remembering my dad. He left us 35 years ago today (aged 42). Still feels like yesterday. My heart is still shattered 💔
i love the way she describes me!! :( Sobs and tears
Oh lord its taking over-
Mina Compotaro its consuming

Dear Bestie,
I remember that night as if it were yesterday when you opened up to me.
I really appreciate that because I can imagine how hard it was to sing it loud.
You’ve put your whole heart into singing that song and got all the emotions out of you.
I might not know everything about you but remember that I am always there for you.
Your version is beyond compare!
I have very high hopes for you and I wish you sang your version to a bigger audience.
I believe in you!
You deserve all the best.
Love,
Your friend
I'm currently 23 but this song brings me back to when I was a high-schooler. I grew up with a narcissistic mother and overall broken family with no father figure. I worked my ass off and still tried to get straight A's to get my mother's approval. Nothing worked and I was just invisible to her. I fell for someone online after high-school ended, I was going to go to college but my mother never supported me so I was lost when it came to paperwork. This person online was 3 states away and I just went for it, I moved away and my mother basically made everyone hate me in my family. Now I have no one and all I think about with this song is how close it is to how I was then and how I am now. I'm 7 months pregnant, engaged to the same person I fell for but still trying to light that flame of strength the girl I was had. She was so broken, IM broken, but she could handle it all more. I barely recognize myself..but I have to be strong for my daughter, she needs me. I won't let her ever feel how I did when I was a child.
I know it's been 2 years but God is always with you. xxxooo
G-d bless you ❤️
This song makes me cry.... it reminds me of the inner child that got left behind 😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥
I don't have powerful enough words for how in love I am with how beautiful my heart feels. I hear Sara's exquisite vocals, and I am taken to a peaceful, lovely place.❤
This song literally describes my life right now. I hope that the person reading this is just doing fine.
Yep
Describes me too. I just left my abusive ex and I have actual fear of what my life will be now. I miss the strong woman I used to be. I see glimpses of her but it scares me still.
I hope you are doing just fine too ♥️
nope:(
@@NewNameNaomi I feel that I am close to end too. Time is up. This song is beautiful, but listening to it has just made me feel worse. Shit! I really hope that you can get back to the strong woman you once were. Best wishes from London UK X
not so fine but i am fine !!!
as what Jungkook from BTS said,
“I can't just say, cheer up no matter what but in the midst of that difficulty, try to find that small happiness.”
As a mother, I feel this song so sad.. When responsibility of being a mom hits, you will tend to forget who you are.. Forget yourself all together because you have to be tough, to be strong to keep the family going.. The song is sad but I believe, I still have that girl in me, an optimistic dreamer.. I may not be perfect but will always try my best..
Hugs for your words❤
This song has a real impact on my emotions... the girl I was is gone but her heart still yearns for a time she can be herself again....
Makki's performance at Tawag ng Tanghalan brought me here. She introduced many underrated gems😭✨💖 THIS IS A DIAMOND💖✨
what a beautiful song ! the artist's voice is also so beautiful
It’s so nice to have talented people like Sara Bareilles around in this world. ❤️
In 2019 I was performing my bird show at the Humboldt County fair in Eureka, CA. At the time, I was in a sort of feeling unaccomplished, feeling like a loser. After one of my shows, a lady named Bonnie came up and wanted a photo with my birds. It was Sara Bareilles' mother. This song sings to me and I am so honored to meet the matriarch. Beautiful!
I'm sitting here aged 60 remembering the girl I used to be before illnesses and time has ravaged this body and mind. The ghosts of my past still dance around me, but all I can see, is the girl that I lost in the mirror and its fading from my memory, I just want to hold her one more time.
As someone who lost his grandmother to Alzheimer’s when he was a young boy, this comment really resonated with me. I sincerely hope you’re doing alright.
@@gdarcticwolf6226 thank you, I'm doing ok, just taking it one day at a time x

i've just lost my internet friend she has to delete instagram for personal reasons and she texted me on snapchat and i asked too many questions and she had to delete me on snapchat too and i didn't get to say goodbye and tell her i loved her and i might never speak to her again she was my world she got me through so much this song reminds me of her even before this happened it made me think of her and i don't know if she's ok or anything she was my first thought sometimes im waffling but it's hard
update: she came back last sunday, i love her so much :)
same thing happened with me :/

I had never heard this song before tonight. I’m actually watching the last season of American idol on demand and Sara came on to sing this song with another contestant. I wasn’t really paying much attention to the lyrics, just playing on my phone with the song in the background. The notes and vocal phrasing that she’s singing were enough to put a lump in my throat. I had to pull this video up to listen again and read through the lyrics. I’m a 49-year-old male
And found myself sobbing. I’m at a point in my life where I’ve never been happier. I went through a lot of hard times over many years though. I think everybody in someway I can relate to the message of this song. One of the most beautiful songs i’ve heard very very long time. I am a musician who writes mostly progressive rock, but I think I might give a try at a heart wrenching ballad.
I hope you had find your peace. I’m rooting for you 🙏💐
I generally feel that this is the best description of me. Every time I listen...
“It’s not what I asked for. Sometimes life just slips in through a backdoor and carved out a person and makes you believe it’s all true. And now I’ve got you”
Am I the only one sobbing while singing the lyrics. Ths hits different. We'll get through this! Sending hugs to everyone. 🥺
I came across this song while watching The Voice and a young man sang it so amazingly beautifully. It really resonated with me and I looked it up on utube and discovered Sara Barailles the most amazing singer. It has made me listen to other music she has made and I absolutely love her pure clear singing voice. I am entranced by her ❤❤❤xxx

Why do these lyrics remind me of black widow.
This deserves more likes
Wow, they really do
😭😭😭😭😭😭
"When she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love" this lyric here hits very close to home for me. When I was a baby my father walked out on me and my entire life I have thought it was my fault, that I was not good enough. Because of that I am extremely closed off and never open up to people for I know I am nothing more than a burden. When my father was young something happened to him that made him incapable of loving, but he won't tell anyone what happened. He abused my mother and was so mentally abusive to me for not being there. I am barely even considered a teenager and so everyone tells me "you are a child you can't know trauma or pain" then why do I know it more then I know my own self?
stay strong. i’m so sorry about what happened but you’re an amazing person and it’s important that your remember your worth. i love you 💗
Same here i am also in similar situation as you are and its really hard to be in this of situation
This is my nth time singing along with Sara... and as always... I cried. 😢 What's with this song that keeps me coming back, like it was written all for me... all for me. 😢
“If I’m honest I would give it all back for a chance to start over and rewrite an ending or two” hit me hard.
There is always a rainbow After a little rain omg me too 😭😭
Anyone from 2024 ❤❤❤. No matter what we still have memories of Joy and pain that made us all human and beautiful too.
It described me, heart broken ... tired of keep going , so many open wounds , scars open again .... just thinking to put an end to this pain
MH Gold it's a horrible feeling but with time it heals.
Just heard this song lost my husband felt like the song related to how I and many others feel do not give up be strong shall be thinking of you 💜
MH
MH Gold hope things have gotten better for you! Just know that God loves you.
MH Gold hope you can fix yourself someday ..... we dont deserve pain . 🙂😶😘
The recognition of yourself in the lyrics is freeing. The song is hope put to a melody for all those who have been broken and put back together with times healing.
I used to listen to this when I was going through a really dark and rough time and now I'm singing this in the best place I've ever been looking back on how far I've come.
This reminds me of my best friend and I want her to know how loved she is every single time because she always tries so hard and never asks for help yet she’s always there for us.
I just heard this song today. And this definitely speaks what is inside my heart for so long. I lost the girl who loves life,who never gives up and who fights for her dreams even if it's risky to take. I don't know when I lost her but I want her back. I want you back,myself.... my true self
There are NOT enough superlative adjectives to properly bless this absolutely riveting 'Song about Life'...................Incredible Kudos to you, Sara!
This is one of the best lyric videos I've ever seen. It is all spelled correctly, easy to read and see, not distracting, perfect, on time transitions. Well done! I've never considered subbing to a lyrics video channel but now I'm considering it. Plus, this song has my ❤️
Huh?
Actually there is. That "that place and it's patron"
Random Oppa It’s correct in the video...
@@sadie_bear it should be "that place and ITS patrons"

"She is broken and won't ask for help."

She asks for help from her dad and brother all the time 😂 lol

i think "she is lonely most of the time" suits her the bestt
She is hard on her on her self suits her best
I used to be 26. So eager and hopeful. Dated a lot and was too forgiving and hopeful. I was beautiful. I was always so hard on myself and had self esteem issues. But I was always told I had a kind heart. I dated guys who were users. They weren’t anything special but I’d put them on a pedestal. They broke my sprint. I remember the girl who’d smile and the old gentleman at the parking garage would say how I had a beautiful smile and wanted to shake my hand and how they’d wish their sons would be introduced to me. I remember the the 9 year old girl who I was a big sister to who’d say how pretty I was. I never saw that. Men walked all over me. And now I’m 36. Single. Used. Broken. And tired.
i feel what you feel. But in beautiful life we have to through with patient and hope for tomorrow. Remember treat yourself better first before you treat another people .
I feel you so much. I truly hope that you’re doing better.
reminds me who i was.. reminds me all those stories..
time flies so fast, and we didnt realise that we change so much already.
i miss her.. can we go back to the old good times?
This song is so 'addictive' yet very beautiful one, literally makes me so emotional with its brilliant lyrics.
It is ❤
I discovered this by accident and now I’m sobbing.
Not only does it exactly hit how I feel about myself, it reminds me almost exactly of a character of mine who had an accidental pregnancy that was high risk and ultimately ended in a miscarriage. I can just see her singing the beginning to herself, realizing shit is going wrong, then the rest of the song depicting her through her grief-ending with her singing the final verse as she clutches herself and cries.
2:02 to 3:10 is no doubt my most favorite part of the entire song. And I love this song so much💜👌😘😍💜
This song makes me cry every time i hear it. It feels like it was written for me. I know you all feel the same that's why you're here. Virtual hugs for everyone. STAY STRONG 💞
i have NEVER cried so instantly just by looking at the first few lines- this literally reminds me of myself....
Utterly beautiful song. Sara is a genius
That is a stunning creation Sara!!! I get chills listening to it every time. Thanks you! Bravo!
The song is great, in a way many people can relate to the the words at some point in time in their lives. It can remind you of your past or describe your present struggles . I cried the first time I heard it.
This song breaks me every time. One of these days, I hope I can sing it all the way through without choking up. It's stunningly beautiful, but always heartbreaking.
This is relatable to anyone male or female who have been through things that have been broken to the core and have a hard time finding who they are now after everything.
Sometimes so much happens that you forget who you were and believe what people tell you that you have become.
