*Lyrics* Shadows settle on the place, that you left Our minds are troubled by the emptiness Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time From the perfect start to the finish line And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones 'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs Setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong The lovers that went wrong We are the reckless We are the wild youth Chasing visions of our futures One day we'll reveal the truth That one will die before he gets there And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones 'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone We're setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home It was a flood that wrecked this And you caused it. (×3) Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette A lifeless face that you'll soon forget My eyes are damp from the words you left Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one 'Cause most of us are bitter over someone Setting fire to our insides for fun To distract our hearts from ever missing them But I'm forever missing him... And you caused it. (×3)
I love this song because my dad died due to lung cancer this past May. He was a heavy smoker and my parents were divorced but they still loved each other deeply, and he loved me and my siblings so very much. I remember being around 9 and playing this song and he liked it quite a bit, and it’s always stuck with me, and now that he’s gone this song really means a lot to me. The lyrics hit a bit close to home too, coincidentally. I still love him and always will, at least he got to see me turn 14. edit: hi everybody, this comment got more attention than i expected haha. i’m 15 now, and it’s officially been one year since he passed. i’m doing well, i always have to skip this song cause it hurts a little bit too much still, but thank you all for the kind comments and wishes! it means a lot
Fresh Avocado he’d be so so proud of you and i don’t know if you believe in god or anything of the sort but, he’s watching over you. he’s there, protecting you. thank you for sharing your very personal take on this song, it’s very heartwarming. rest in peace
this just reminds me of how difficult life with depression and anxiety is. one day, hour, minute, or second you could be completely fine and enjoying yourself and then all of a sudden it’s like this dark energy swallows you whole, and you feel like you’re trapped inside a tiny box, or like your lungs are collapsing. it’s like the world around you disappears and all it is, is just you and all you’re triggers that are in that moment, and you try so hard to breathe through it put your lungs end up closing up and you keep gasping for air as tears run down your eyes and your head is spinning and you’re trying to scream but nothing comes out because you’re mouth is dry and you’re throat is closed, so you just keep trying to breathe and you just keep crying cause it feels like you’re dying and your heart is in a million pieces…
Dear 12 year old me sobbing to this song because your life took a turn- It got better, you met the person you love, aren't you happy you didn't leave? Shes amazing and sweet! (Your bisexual duhh) Thank you for all the replys! It means so much to me that people are seeing this as hope for a brighter future. I know it's tough but everything is going to be okay, maybe not now but someday, so fight with me
To the person who read this, It’s been hard for you, I know, and it makes me sad that you don’t see yourself in the way I see you. Sometimes they are things in life that cause us to loose ourselves, and the way you have is so unimaginable painful. I miss your smile, the way your eyes light up the whole room just by the sound of your laughter. I miss the way you accepted the way you look in the mirror without cursing yourself out about how ugly you look. I miss the way you didn’t think of yourself as a failure because everyone makes mistakes, we all have flaws and we all aren’t perfect. It’s painful to see that no one around you seems to see the pain trough your eyes, but, stranger, I do, I see how heavy your heart is and how comforting the sadness for you might be, how afraid your heart is of happiness because it disappears in the end, right? You don’t know how much impact you have in this world and it’s sad to see that your demons fight against you and want to take over you. Because you do make change, it’s something so simple and little that brightens up someone’s whole world, it can be a small smile from your lips, the way you look at things you’re passionate about, the way you make yourself eat even though it’s been hard for you lately, the way you zoom out and go in your own world, you brighten up my world by reading this, it means a lot to me that you’re here, existing, but I don’t want you to just exist, you deserve to feel alive. You deserve to get up in the morning and feel good about yourself. You deserve to feel something- to feel every damn second alive in this lifetime. It’s heartbreaking that you think you’re not capable of being loved, because you are, I love you trough all my words and I hope you let it happen in your heart. Love is scary, I know, maybe you heart had been broken once and since then you wanted to be rather numb than feel ever again, it hurts me how you punish yourself, does it not deserve love? Because YOU DO deserve love, please forgive yourself, it’s not your fault that the demons want to take over your beautiful heart. You’re not a bad person for distancing yourself from others, but you deserve someone to talk to, you deserve someone to listen. I am listening, you can tell me what’s wrong. It’s everything, isn’t it? There’s something pulling your heartstrings on the ground and no one seems to understand how misunderstood you feel, it’s heartbreaking to know that I am behind the screen and can’t give you a hug, that’s why I will give you a big warm virtual hug and send you lots of love :). You matter. You are worthy. You are loved. You deserve good things. You deserve someone to listen. You deserve to eat and drink. You deserve to feel good and alive. You deserve to smile. You deserve a hug. You deserve to be all the things you want to be, because you deserve to have and feel good things happening to you and have a fulfilled life. I know I might not know you personally but I care about you so much, I write this because I want you to stay here with me, I want you to hold on a little longer because you matter so much to me, because I will not let you give up on yourself. I want you to see that you should not give up on yourself because you DESERVE GOOD THINGS. I want you to look back on the time when you were a kid, you didn’t give up when you tried to swim for the first time, you didn’t give up when you tired to walk for the first time and fell, you never gave up on yourself, you always kept on pushing forwards, so why can’t you now? I know it’s tiring, your mentally tired, but dont your younger self deserve good things? look back at your eyes that used to be full of hope, look back on those dreams. Don’t let yourself fall, you deserve better. We will both fight, I will fight for you. I won’t let those demons get to you. You can hold on to me, I won’t let you down :). Whenever you feel lonely, then look at the sky, I always look at it and think about you. Yes, you, because it makes me happy that there’s someone looking right back, maybe we can’t see each other but I can feel your presence here with me and that’s enough for me, because I am glad your heart is beating and you’re still fighting. You’re so much stronger thank you think, you didn’t leave your spot on this earth even if you wanted to, you belong here, even though it doesn’t feel like it, when you don’t feel like belonging than build your own home here, put all your love in it and dreams. Think of you as a star when you feel alone, you shine because your heart is good, no matter what mistake you made, no matter about the past you had, you’re one of the stars that shine bright in the universe because you’re heart is beautiful, that’s why the demons in your mind wants to have it. As one of the stars you see others stars, maybe they have felt the same way as you do at some point in there life, but they lighten up the universe with each other’s presence. You’re a star for me, maybe you don’t see it yourself but I can see it, you’re beautiful from inside and out, your body is beautiful the way it is. You make me happy by reading this, you make me feel something by your presence and when you can make me feel that way than you also make other people feel that way about you too. I hope you stay for yourself and don’t let your story get written by others but by yourself, it’s your story not theirs. As you can see, I say a lot of “I hope” because I have hope for you even if you don’t have it for yourself, I see hope in you even though you might want to give up. That’s why I hope you won’t see the world in darkness and will see it colorful again, I hope I will give you a glimpse of hope and make the world you see a bit colorful for today. My favorite color is yellow, and I hope the next time you see the color yellow you will think about my words. If someone left you than don’t blame yourself, don’t think you weren’t enough, don’t lower yourself for someone who couldn’t see the awesomeness in you. If you lost someone I am so sorry for your loss, they want you happy, I hope you don’t feel guilty or regret because you were there, you spend enough time with them, they want you to be happy. They are in a good and safe place now. If someone broke your heart than I am so sorry that they couldn’t see the way you look so beautiful because of the heart you have. Anyone who gets to be with you, doesn’t know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :). If you aren’t accepted at home or in general than I am so sorry that you have to deal with someone/ something you shouldn’t be ashamed of, I accept you and support you, I accept you as a human being no matter what race, religion, nationality, skin color, or sexuality you have. You’re safe here with me :). You’re not useless, you’re not a burden to anyone. You’re not a problem, you’re human and your feelings are valid. You’re not being dramatic. Please don’t starve yourself, you deserve food and to drink, I know it’s hard. It hurts to see that you’re in so much pain :( you deserve so much man, don’t let your emotions control you. Don’t let them get the best of you. I am sorry no one is noticing, I wish /hope I could take your pain away for today or even for a moment while you’re reading this. If no one told you, I am so proud of you, you’re reading this and it’s enough for me to be proud of you because you’re here and that’s all that matters to me. If it’s night for you, go to sleep, I know it’s hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, don’t let them fight you. If it’s day for you, don’t start it by such sad music, I know it’s impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water everyday in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits. If it’s evening for you, you’re probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know it’s okay to feel the way you feel. You don’t need to be scared, of course you’re overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldn’t? But it’s important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed. And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that you’re so strong for breathing despite the pain, I know you will make it :) I believe in you. All I want for you is to stay here, I really mean all my words, even if there is a lot of unsaid things I want to tell u and my text is getting longer and longer,I want you here. I hope one day your smile will become a genuine one where you don’t need to fake it anymore, because I can’t say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. You’re worth more than every fucking cent in this world. You can let go for today, I got you, you can cry your heart out as much as you want, but don’t let it tear you down and let your emotions control you by giving up. Crying is not weakness. If you still feel alone I dedicate you a song as your friend. “Dusk till Dawn- Zayn feat. Sia (I prefer the slow version)” I hope you can think of me and will remind yourself of my words, I will for sure think of you. In case no one told you and you’re unsure yourself, you’re a good person and I am so happy you’re here. I hope this is enough to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. Enough with beating yourself up for today, okay? Life for those who couldn’t, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like there’s no other, hug like its your last one. If you read all of it, until tomorrow my friend :) have a good day and great years. I love you so much and am so proud of you, I hope you will remember my words- becho, the stranger that cares more about you than anything :)
I can’t try, I wish I could, I have so many things to cry about I can’t even cry. So I have no way of letting my emotions go, I don’t blame my best friend for dropping me, I know I’m a lot, but I wasn’t even at my worse then, in December, but now I am, I think I am. I’m not sure. I don’t feel anything because I am feeling everything at once that it’s nothing, it’s so bad to a point where I don’t even recognize myself because I can’t feel anything, I tried to eat, I couldn’t, I tried to drink, barely. I’m so fucking tired but I can’t sleep, I’m so emotionally drained that my therapist thinks it’s time to see a doctor, I’m not done, but if I didn’t wake up tomorrow I wouldn’t be mad. But I will never k!ll myself, I couldn’t do that. But I feel nothing, it sucks. I’m not even upset about my best friend anymore. I don’t know why I feel this way but I do.

Hey 12 year old me, do you remember that big hole in your heart? It's gone. It's just a scar, just a memory, far away from you. Who did you find you ask? No one yet, you did it by yourself. You're strong, I always knew that. So, for the future me, who might be reading this in a year or two or even three, if she did it, you can too. Don't worry about not finding the one for you, because YOU don't need that kind of stuff, you have it inside you already. You have self-love. I love you. 💞
Does anyone else just want to cry to this but they can’t? This song makes me feel weird but I can’t bring myself to cry or sob anything and I don’t know why because I want to cry over this
It’s because you wasted all of your tears on something that was probably useless...and when you do cry you get excited...but the your mind stars to make you think of all the bad things and it hurts you so much you stop crying....
To anyone who's sad like me right now listening to this, Just know that wherever you are...You're safe enough to take the time to read this and listen to this song. Whatever your situation is will get better and I love you
i hope you have someone to talk to, whether that be a loved one, a professional, or even a stranger. in a world with hope, there is something deep down that makes your life have worth, and hope, and love. dont buy into the smalltalk people say if nothing will change, you just gotta put a little effort to see the brighter side. i wish the best for you
I believe in you! I’m a stranger so this probably won’t mean anything.. like at all 😂🤚🏼 but you’ll get through this and come out a BILLION times stronger, and you’ll be so fucking proud of yourself for everything you survived! Everyday there will be something new for you to smile about.. you’ll be so confident that those sad memories will just fade away! :)
Dear 13 year old me, You're tired. I know this, you know this, everyone knows this. You need to vent, or ask for help. You can't keep everything bottled up all the time, and we both know there's a lot from the past 4 years bottled up. You try fooling yourself with the idea that it's because of middle school sadness, or the people you hanged our with. Stop lying to yourself, and do something. Don't get too deep into your thoughts all the time. You can't do this by yourself. Stop lying to your friends, family, and mostly yourself. You can't cry. You don't know why, and search for other things to feel relief. Surround yourself with people who care, and people you trust. Please, I know you have doubts, but you need this. From, future me (hopefully)
Im 18 now and looking back to when I was 13 I used to listen to this song and cry. I was super depressed and in a really similar place that you are. I could've definitely used some words of encouragement like this from my older self because i promise you it really does get better. you'll grow and learn and find so much love for the world and everything will really be okay. Just takes time. Be patient and loving with yourself !
How do some people deserve to be happy and others don’t, that didn’t even do anything wrong. How are famous people so special. I don’t understand like why can’t we all be treated the same. ( just my opinion )
after losing my brother my life became so hard, i woke up everyday barely able to breath. i felt like an elephant was constantly sitting on my chest and no matter what i did i just could catch my breath. it’s been 4 years now and i still feel this way. i still can’t breath without pain.
4 million views, 3 years later. i am deeply grateful for everyone who watched this shitty video i made in the middle in the night. thank you. so so much.
And here i am again. Rethinking my hole life and regretting everything. Crying to myself since no one around me cares. Breaking every second a little bit more without anyone noticing. I just don't see a reason to get going. I have no reason. And will never have one.
Hey, you still here? I hope so. I know it's hard. But, you have people that care for you, maybe in the shadows, but they're there. There is still a reason to keep living. You might not find it yet, but you will know eventually. The horrible things that happened are gone. They're just a memory. Learn from those memories if you can, and keep going. You don't know me and I don't know you, but I know, that we will do something beautiful one day. For us, or for others. I don't know if I explained myself, I don't know English that well. But I hope at least I cheered you up, and if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here :) Love ya, stranger! Keep living and loving❤️
hey, how are you doing now? i really hope things have gotten better. i know you have lots of regrets, but as time goes by, you have the opportunity to make better choices and do better things--things you won't regret. and that in itself is a reason to live, to make life better for yourself and those around. i love you, wherever you are.
10 - 12 yr old me listened to this song and sobbed. she was in a horrible mindset and never thought she would truly be happy. she had some pretty bad thoughts and even some horrible plans. luckily she was too scared to go through with them and is now living an incredible, fun and utterly happy life. everything is right and i couldn't imagine never being able to get to this point in my life. listening to this again has brought back those memories. i cant believe the pain i used to feel. its honestly shocking, im so glad i made it. i am a lucky one.
Dear 12 year old me, It’s hard. Life is hard I tell you. But you’re still here, you’re a year clean now and I’m very proud of you. Obviously your attempt didn’t work but that’s good. You met really great people, you’re still with your sucky family but you have great friends. You’re not in a relationship but there is this one girl who’s an absolute sweetheart and we just got off the phone with eachother. We’re making it and that’s amazing. Like takes some harsh turns in order to keep going on the road but, we’re on a good ride right now. It’s great. I love you, and your friends love you. Be safe, and remember. Don’t stop just because it’s hard, change the way you’re doing it and it won’t be easy but you’ll get through and it’ll feel so much better.
You know, my dog was put down today. Lived to be 14 years old... I remembered him trying to grab the biggest rock from the rivers he could! It hurts but he's better. He was old.
He didnt need to die like that, but you do realize he was convicted *Nine* separate times for theft, aswell as holding a loaded gun to a pregnant *Black womans stomach* right?
@@arkthefennecfox2366 the officers who killed him didn't know that. They only knew about a counterfeit bill. They killed him over a single counterfeit bill, not for his past crimes. So his past crimes are not relevant to his murder.
To anyone reading this (including myself), I know times may be bad but please don’t give up...your are wanted, loved, and beautiful. Things will get better. Keep going, I know you can do it, you’re very strong! I love you, remember to take care of yourself, okay.💕
Would appreciate it if someone liked this comment after quite some time passes!❤️ Dear 13 year old me, how’s dad? is he still ignoring you when you tell him you love him? does he still pretend to want you and love you to get you to come to his house just for him to lock himself in his room with girls coming in and out every other hour? does he still force you to eat healthy regardless that you’re under weight? does he still bring girls in and out of your life just for you to come to his house one day and never see them again, resulting in increasingly severe abandonment issues? does mom still not believe you that he’s a sociopath even though he’s been diagnosed already? does your brother still come sleep with you at night because he’s afraid of sleeping in the room next to dad? does his mom (me and him don’t have the same mother, my dad sleeps around a lot. mind you, my brother is barely 6) still compare him to dad and end up ranting to me, crying because he’s trying so hard to not become the monster he is? do you still crave affection from men because you never got any growing up? does mom still call you a psychopath because the gene runs in dads side of the family? have you gotten therapy for the fact that dad left for 7 years and came back just so he wouldn’t go to jail? did he ever show up to court to fight for his rights for you, or was he out doing drugs instead? does mom still drink herself to sleep? does she still think your schizophrenia is just “hormones”? does she still call you unlovable, ruthless, and unstable? does Daisy, your bestfriend, still call you dramatic for cutting lines? does she still ignore your texts for days and when she finally responds, it’s a single word (i.e “ok”, “lol”, or “yea”) does she still invite her friends over in front of you without asking you as well? does jay, your step dad, still leave at 8 am and come home at 7 to yell at mom and get high upstairs on the balcony? does he still favor your step sister, his daughter, who you don’t share the same dad with, over you? does Chop, your dog, still lay in your lap while you cry blasting your music at night? does he still sleep heavy no matter where you go together because he’s used to the loud noises? do people still tell you you’re fortunate because of the money your parents make without knowing what goes on at home? have people noticed your ED? have people noticed your scars? have people noticed your slipping grades? do you still day drink or have your parents caught on again? does mom still threaten to beat you? did you go to therapy yet or have you cancelled it, yet again, because you genuinely believe you don’t deserve to get better? do you still take liquid meds instead of pills because you’re afraid you’re going to get addicted to them like mom and dad did? and most importantly, how many days clean are you, if at all? sober even? Come back in a few months, future self. i’m sure it’s all gotten even worse.
Love you mate, hope you're doing well, I wish I could meet all the people here in this comments section, I'm tired of people saying good things to me never being there when i'm crying for help.
I'm listening to this while on my padio couch, while it's raining, and I'm surrounded by fireflys as the sun goes down. I feel like the main character....
This song always hits close to home, especially now... Dear 12 year old me, your life was rocky and it will continue to be but always remembers your brother is there with you. Your mother loves you, despite what you'll always feel. You'll find someone that makes your heart soar, but it will go against your family's beliefs. You will become whom you truly are, despite being born in the false body. You will succeed, and those scars you'll have will always be beautiful to the one you hold closest. Your are beautiful, you are kind, you are needed. Never forget that
This song reminds me of when I cry at night and feel helpless. When my lungs close in and I’m gasping for air but I can’t make a noise. When all I want is someone to wrap their arms around me and say that it’s fine but it’s really not. When I know that I have to be there for my friends but it’s so hard when they won’t listen to me. When I know that they don’t care about me and I have to just take care of myself but I can’t and I put on that fake smile and say that everything’s fine but it feels like someone is grabbing my chest and stabbing it repeatedly but I can’t do anything about it because if I talk about it then I’m being dramatic so I’m just stuck, pretending that I’m fine when I cry myself to sleep every night and “wonder why” my face is blotchy and my eyes are puffy in the morning. I hate it. I can’t do this. But I have to. I hate this.
I suffer with depression ,anxiety and dpdr...it’s like I’m pushed away from the world and I’m alone. I don’t know how to keep moving , I don’t know how to keep going , and this song just makes my heart sink and my tears stay locked up.
hey me, i just wanted to say im proud of you. you made it, its been hard but you made it. the pain may have been unbearable at some points but you made it. you did it. youre alive and breathing. you may have struggled but you made it. im sorry you dealt with that all alone, but i promise you that it wasn't your fault. youre no longer alone. no longer helpless, no longer hurt, no longer crying. youve wasted enough tears, and you moved on. im so happy now. we did it, we really did.
Shadows settle on the place, that you left Our minds are troubled by the emptiness Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time From the perfect start to the finish line And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones 'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs Setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong The lovers that went wrong We are the reckless We are the wild youth Chasing visions of our futures One day we'll reveal the truth That one will die before he gets there And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones 'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone We're setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home It was a flood that wrecked this
Ugh this song just brings back so many memories of my child hood, it just hits a place in my heart that makes me sad but also filled with joy. I love this song and it will always be my favorite!🥺💕
This song brings back so many memories. It hits a place in my heart that makes me sad but also fills me with joy. I don’t know how to explain it but this will forever be my favorite song, I love it with everything in me. I just felt like I should share that, since everyone else is sharing what the song means to them. I hope everyone who’s reading this has a wonderful day.💕
Dear 15 years old me I know middle school was a terrible time , you were unfitted, rejected and hated by the others. During groups work you were always alone or with people that hates you for who you are. Know you want to kill yourself because High school is coming and you are too afraid about living the same shit than before but no .. it will not be the case. You are going to meet the most loveable person on earth , they will care about you , makes you laugh and help you fitting. High school will be the most beautiful time for you with the best fiends you are ever meet in your whole life. Please don’t die , or you will waste your beautiful futur with those people !
Hello everyone! You'll probably never interact with me again, so I'd like to leave you all with one simple message: healing is worth it. I know it's SO hard sometimes. Some days you feel like you can't even get out of bed, let alone pursue something you used to be so passionate about. I know the feeling. This year, it felt like I was swimming upstream, fighting a never-ending barrage of setbacks, each one more crushing than the last. I worked so hard every day only to be knocked down again by depressive episodes, injuries, a tumor, covid... it never seemed to end. But amidst the chaos, I experienced so many new and rewarding things in my life. Falling in love, finding new creative ways to interact with others, learning new things, finding myself, pursuing my passion, and picking myself back up when I could have stayed down... those were the things that made healing worth it for me. All of this is to say that while it may seem so easy to give up on healing, you need to take care of yourself. Healing isn't easy. Take it one day at a time. Remind yourself where you came from, and never lose sight of your goals. You deserve to experience all the beautiful things that this life has to offer. You do. So please don't give up, ok? It will be so worth it to see yourself on the other side of what you're going through. So to whoever is reading this, I wish you so much happiness in this life and beyond. I love you.
I listened to this song shortly after my parents seperated. I felt that was the beginning of the end of my childhood. I'm healed now but it took a long time.
Shadows settle on the place, that you left Our minds are troubled by the emptiness Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time From the perfect start to the finish line And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones 'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs Setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong The lovers that went wrong We are the reckless We are the wild youth Chasing visions of our futures One day we'll reveal the truth That one will die before he gets there And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones 'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone We're setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home It was a flood that wrecked this And you caused it And you caused it And you caused it Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette A lifeless face that you'll soon forget My eyes are damp from the words you left Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one 'Cause most of us are bitter over someone Setting fire to our insides for fun To distract our hearts from ever missing them But I'm forever missing him And you caused it And you caused it And you caused it
Hello, 11 year old me!! I have some questions: -do your parents know? -if they do, are you safe, are you being sent away to a camp? -Are you still alive? Or was it too much in the end? -What are your relationships with Ayden and Avery?How are they doing? -did you make any good memories? -did you open up to your therapist? -How are you doing? -Do you still cry daily? -Is your Roblox avatar still lemon themed :D? -Is your room the same? What has changed if not? -Are you still allowed your iPad at night? -do you have a favorite stuffed animal? -Do you love yourself?
I remember when my sister was alive and we'd listen to this together all the time... We felt so calm and happy together, wow, ... I miss you sister. Weird that I'm sitting here listening to this song without you... I'm so depressed man.
Hey 12 year old me. She didn’t stay and watch you grow She didn’t get better But you did You grew, and prospered even through the pain Mom loves you. So does dad. They just didn’t love themselves enough to stay. I’m sorry your crying, That doesn’t change little one. you will be okay, I promise. you grew up faster than everyone else you are gonna be okay
lol hi this is kind of irrelevant but i’m having my boyfriend over at my house this week and i was wondering if anyone had any ideas of things we could do together? i’m scared ill bore him lmao
Lacey Adams OH MY GOD i totally forgot that i posted this. we broke up literally a month later. i’m not even kidding, two weeks ago he asked me if i wanted to get back together with him WHILE HE WAS IN A RELATIONSHIP?? so i sent a screenshot of that bitch to his girlfriend. i’m also gay now, lmao
The original was a masterpiece, but this version officially broke me harder than it should. It is almost as if the pain that were felt in the past is now dragged out due to depression and anxiety beyond all sense of what is right and wrong and instead of the sharp pain of recollection that is presented in the original, this is now a dull and long lasting affliction that stays with us until the very end.
Dear stranger, We might never see eachother, but who am i to say? Anyways... i know that life can be truly hard, and the pressure is ginormus, lets not even talk about all the negativity we drown in. But you just have to know that, the world is big, the universe is big. And well we are strong human beings, and you can get through it. Do you really want to end it all? Right now? When you have more than you think to live? You can reach your goals always, you just have to try and believe in yourself. Cry, if it helps. Smile, if its true. Hope, if you want. Love, if you need. But most of all believe.
I know this song is supposed to be sad but it sounds happy whenever i cuddle with my cat. He was lying on my lap and he looked up at me and i smiled at him and he started crying.🥺❤️ He also hugged my hand when i was petting him.
i saw some people writing to their old selves, and i'm still here so i thought i'd write something for if future me even finds this video again. read if you want too. hey, future me. i hope you're doing well, i hope you're not cutting and i hope you're eating enough without feeling guilty. maybe by now you're being called by a name you like, maybe you've come up with something better then Charlye? i bet your hair is super soft and brushed out, i can't wait to feel it. are you and Rain still together? i hope so, she's amazing. has your family gotten better? i wouldn't be surprised if not but that's okay! you'll be out of here one day or maybe it's so far into the future, you already are. i hope you have more friends and i hope you've only grown closer to the ones you already have. maybe you have a big friend group and all your friends know each other! that sounds nice. either way, that's all i really wanted to say. well, except one more thing. you've made it this far, why give up now?
*Lyrics*
Shadows settle on the place, that you left
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time
From the perfect start to the finish line
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong
We are the reckless
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone
We're setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home
It was a flood that wrecked this
And you caused it. (×3)
Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget
My eyes are damp from the words you left
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts from ever missing them
But I'm forever missing him...
And you caused it. (×3)
Thank you lyric guy
@@fallonm.m.9314That's a girl
I love this song because my dad died due to lung cancer this past May. He was a heavy smoker and my parents were divorced but they still loved each other deeply, and he loved me and my siblings so very much. I remember being around 9 and playing this song and he liked it quite a bit, and it’s always stuck with me, and now that he’s gone this song really means a lot to me. The lyrics hit a bit close to home too, coincidentally. I still love him and always will, at least he got to see me turn 14.
edit: hi everybody, this comment got more attention than i expected haha. i’m 15 now, and it’s officially been one year since he passed. i’m doing well, i always have to skip this song cause it hurts a little bit too much still, but thank you all for the kind comments and wishes! it means a lot
Fresh Avocado he’d be so so proud of you and i don’t know if you believe in god or anything of the sort but, he’s watching over you. he’s there, protecting you. thank you for sharing your very personal take on this song, it’s very heartwarming. rest in peace
i’m so sorry.
I’m so sorry this happened to you god bless you
@@weeping8070 facts.
😟😟😟 im so sorry
This is officially the saddest song I’ve ever heard...
ම້ੁ͡ ૈ ˌ̫̮ ම້ੁ͡ ૈ✧ try “where’s my love” alternate version by SYML then listen to it slowed down. SO SAD
w e e p i n g, oh my god.. that song got me bawling WITHOUT the slowing down
@Addyson Canary oml zeah also good is "Are You With Me//Slowed down"
ම້ੁ͡ ૈ ˌ̫̮ ම້ੁ͡ ૈ✧ cAnT be sad if you can relate to it so much...
You haven't listened to enough music so
"Were just lovers that went wrong"
We all felt that
SJNDCCHJF
or the love itself went wrong?
when was that said? but I did feel that lol
My heart!!!
@@filipinojiafei1130 in the song
this just reminds me of how difficult life with depression and anxiety is. one day, hour, minute, or second you could be completely fine and enjoying yourself and then all of a sudden it’s like this dark energy swallows you whole, and you feel like you’re trapped inside a tiny box, or like your lungs are collapsing. it’s like the world around you disappears and all it is, is just you and all you’re triggers that are in that moment, and you try so hard to breathe through it put your lungs end up closing up and you keep gasping for air as tears run down your eyes and your head is spinning and you’re trying to scream but nothing comes out because you’re mouth is dry and you’re throat is closed, so you just keep trying to breathe and you just keep crying cause it feels like you’re dying and your heart is in a million pieces…
I didn’t think anybody really felt like that too
I thought I was the only one... you just put it into words perfectly and I just wanna say thank you
omg exactly what i feel
Accurate and y'all need therapy mates
I was having such a difficult day and this comment made me feel better. Thank you.
Dear 12 year old me sobbing to this song because your life took a turn- It got better, you met the person you love, aren't you happy you didn't leave? Shes amazing and sweet! (Your bisexual duhh)
Thank you for all the replys! It means so much to me that people are seeing this as hope for a brighter future. I know it's tough but everything is going to be okay, maybe not now but someday, so fight with me
proud!!
im so proud!
Happy things got better!! ❤️❤️
I’m at a pretty young age now, I hope my life takes a turn for the better too 🥺 proud of you 👏💛

To the person who read this,
It’s been hard for you, I know, and it makes me sad that you don’t see yourself in the way I see you. Sometimes they are things in life that cause us to loose ourselves, and the way you have is so unimaginable painful. I miss your smile, the way your eyes light up the whole room just by the sound of your laughter. I miss the way you accepted the way you look in the mirror without cursing yourself out about how ugly you look. I miss the way you didn’t think of yourself as a failure because everyone makes mistakes, we all have flaws and we all aren’t perfect. It’s painful to see that no one around you seems to see the pain trough your eyes, but, stranger, I do, I see how heavy your heart is and how comforting the sadness for you might be, how afraid your heart is of happiness because it disappears in the end, right? You don’t know how much impact you have in this world and it’s sad to see that your demons fight against you and want to take over you. Because you do make change, it’s something so simple and little that brightens up someone’s whole world, it can be a small smile from your lips, the way you look at things you’re passionate about, the way you make yourself eat even though it’s been hard for you lately, the way you zoom out and go in your own world, you brighten up my world by reading this, it means a lot to me that you’re here, existing, but I don’t want you to just exist, you deserve to feel alive. You deserve to get up in the morning and feel good about yourself. You deserve to feel something- to feel every damn second alive in this lifetime. It’s heartbreaking that you think you’re not capable of being loved, because you are, I love you trough all my words and I hope you let it happen in your heart. Love is scary, I know, maybe you heart had been broken once and since then you wanted to be rather numb than feel ever again, it hurts me how you punish yourself, does it not deserve love? Because YOU DO deserve love, please forgive yourself, it’s not your fault that the demons want to take over your beautiful heart. You’re not a bad person for distancing yourself from others, but you deserve someone to talk to, you deserve someone to listen. I am listening, you can tell me what’s wrong. It’s everything, isn’t it? There’s something pulling your heartstrings on the ground and no one seems to understand how misunderstood you feel, it’s heartbreaking to know that I am behind the screen and can’t give you a hug, that’s why I will give you a big warm virtual hug and send you lots of love :). You matter. You are worthy. You are loved. You deserve good things. You deserve someone to listen. You deserve to eat and drink. You deserve to feel good and alive. You deserve to smile. You deserve a hug. You deserve to be all the things you want to be, because you deserve to have and feel good things happening to you and have a fulfilled life. I know I might not know you personally but I care about you so much, I write this because I want you to stay here with me, I want you to hold on a little longer because you matter so much to me, because I will not let you give up on yourself. I want you to see that you should not give up on yourself because you DESERVE GOOD THINGS. I want you to look back on the time when you were a kid, you didn’t give up when you tried to swim for the first time, you didn’t give up when you tired to walk for the first time and fell, you never gave up on yourself, you always kept on pushing forwards, so why can’t you now? I know it’s tiring, your mentally tired, but dont your younger self deserve good things? look back at your eyes that used to be full of hope, look back on those dreams. Don’t let yourself fall, you deserve better. We will both fight, I will fight for you. I won’t let those demons get to you. You can hold on to me, I won’t let you down :). Whenever you feel lonely, then look at the sky, I always look at it and think about you. Yes, you, because it makes me happy that there’s someone looking right back, maybe we can’t see each other but I can feel your presence here with me and that’s enough for me, because I am glad your heart is beating and you’re still fighting. You’re so much stronger thank you think, you didn’t leave your spot on this earth even if you wanted to, you belong here, even though it doesn’t feel like it, when you don’t feel like belonging than build your own home here, put all your love in it and dreams. Think of you as a star when you feel alone, you shine because your heart is good, no matter what mistake you made, no matter about the past you had, you’re one of the stars that shine bright in the universe because you’re heart is beautiful, that’s why the demons in your mind wants to have it. As one of the stars you see others stars, maybe they have felt the same way as you do at some point in there life, but they lighten up the universe with each other’s presence. You’re a star for me, maybe you don’t see it yourself but I can see it, you’re beautiful from inside and out, your body is beautiful the way it is. You make me happy by reading this, you make me feel something by your presence and when you can make me feel that way than you also make other people feel that way about you too. I hope you stay for yourself and don’t let your story get written by others but by yourself, it’s your story not theirs. As you can see, I say a lot of “I hope” because I have hope for you even if you don’t have it for yourself, I see hope in you even though you might want to give up. That’s why I hope you won’t see the world in darkness and will see it colorful again, I hope I will give you a glimpse of hope and make the world you see a bit colorful for today. My favorite color is yellow, and I hope the next time you see the color yellow you will think about my words. If someone left you than don’t blame yourself, don’t think you weren’t enough, don’t lower yourself for someone who couldn’t see the awesomeness in you. If you lost someone I am so sorry for your loss, they want you happy, I hope you don’t feel guilty or regret because you were there, you spend enough time with them, they want you to be happy. They are in a good and safe place now. If someone broke your heart than I am so sorry that they couldn’t see the way you look so beautiful because of the heart you have. Anyone who gets to be with you, doesn’t know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :). If you aren’t accepted at home or in general than I am so sorry that you have to deal with someone/ something you shouldn’t be ashamed of, I accept you and support you, I accept you as a human being no matter what race, religion, nationality, skin color, or sexuality you have. You’re safe here with me :). You’re not useless, you’re not a burden to anyone. You’re not a problem, you’re human and your feelings are valid. You’re not being dramatic. Please don’t starve yourself, you deserve food and to drink, I know it’s hard. It hurts to see that you’re in so much pain :( you deserve so much man, don’t let your emotions control you. Don’t let them get the best of you. I am sorry no one is noticing, I wish /hope I could take your pain away for today or even for a moment while you’re reading this. If no one told you, I am so proud of you, you’re reading this and it’s enough for me to be proud of you because you’re here and that’s all that matters to me. If it’s night for you, go to sleep, I know it’s hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, don’t let them fight you. If it’s day for you, don’t start it by such sad music, I know it’s impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water everyday in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits. If it’s evening for you, you’re probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know it’s okay to feel the way you feel. You don’t need to be scared, of course you’re overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldn’t? But it’s important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that you’re so strong for breathing despite the pain, I know you will make it :) I believe in you. All I want for you is to stay here, I really mean all my words, even if there is a lot of unsaid things I want to tell u and my text is getting longer and longer,I want you here.
I hope one day your smile will become a genuine one where you don’t need to fake it anymore, because I can’t say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. You’re worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
You can let go for today, I got you, you can cry your heart out as much as you want, but don’t let it tear you down and let your emotions control you by giving up. Crying is not weakness. If you still feel alone I dedicate you a song as your friend.
“Dusk till Dawn- Zayn feat. Sia (I prefer the slow version)” I hope you can think of me and will remind yourself of my words, I will for sure think of you.
In case no one told you and you’re unsure yourself, you’re a good person and I am so happy you’re here.
I hope this is enough to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. Enough with beating yourself up for today, okay?
Life for those who couldn’t, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like there’s no other, hug like its your last one.
If you read all of it, until tomorrow my friend :)
have a good day and great years.
I love you so much and am so proud of you, I hope you will remember my words- becho, the stranger that cares more about you than anything :)
thank you.
the way i sobbed to this paragraph, thank you. please be okay yourself, the helper is always breaking as well. i love you, and thank you
I cried a lot while reading this but thank you,I’m having a hard time atm so this kinda cheered me up :) I hope you’re doing well.
I LOVE YOU
I can’t try, I wish I could, I have so many things to cry about I can’t even cry. So I have no way of letting my emotions go, I don’t blame my best friend for dropping me, I know I’m a lot, but I wasn’t even at my worse then, in December, but now I am, I think I am. I’m not sure. I don’t feel anything because I am feeling everything at once that it’s nothing, it’s so bad to a point where I don’t even recognize myself because I can’t feel anything, I tried to eat, I couldn’t, I tried to drink, barely. I’m so fucking tired but I can’t sleep, I’m so emotionally drained that my therapist thinks it’s time to see a doctor, I’m not done, but if I didn’t wake up tomorrow I wouldn’t be mad. But I will never k!ll myself, I couldn’t do that. But I feel nothing, it sucks. I’m not even upset about my best friend anymore. I don’t know why I feel this way but I do.
lyrics:
Shadows settle on the place, that you left
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time
From the perfect start to the finish line
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong
We are the reckless
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone
We're setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home
It was a flood that wrecked this
And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it
Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget
My eyes are damp from the words you left
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts from ever missing them
But I'm forever missing him
And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it
Hey 12 year old me, do you remember that big hole in your heart? It's gone. It's just a scar, just a memory, far away from you. Who did you find you ask? No one yet, you did it by yourself. You're strong, I always knew that. So, for the future me, who might be reading this in a year or two or even three, if she did it, you can too. Don't worry about not finding the one for you, because YOU don't need that kind of stuff, you have it inside you already. You have self-love. I love you. 💞
Oh baby, it gives me hope seeing that you made through this.♡ :'')
@@milagrosracedo2977 aa, you're so sweet, thank you! 🥺
waah yayaya im so proud of you uwu keep going ily! hopefully your scars are gonna completely heal and disappear

Life is Strange ❤
I actually knew this song before but was sooo pleasantly surprised by it being in there🖤🖤🖤🖤
Xx Milo xX same
Love the song and that game played
Makes me wanna play the games again
Life sucks ❤️
Does anyone else just want to cry to this but they can’t? This song makes me feel weird but I can’t bring myself to cry or sob anything and I don’t know why because I want to cry over this
omg same
It’s because you wasted all of your tears on something that was probably useless...and when you do cry you get excited...but the your mind stars to make you think of all the bad things and it hurts you so much you stop crying....
"I found you"
Cuz must of us feelings they are dead and they are gone.
I just feel... Melancholy. Empty.
Its like
When i hear this song
I just hear
Peace
Love
And sadness
At the same time
It is just...
So beautiful
I cannot explain
2020 anyone?no just me?

“A lifeless face that you’ll soon forget.”
ouch.
The lyrics to this song is so truthful to me, I've finally found the song that captures so many truths.
May have cried to this, you'll never know
I feel that. Crying sucks
“to distract our hearts from ever missing them, but i’m forever missing... him.”
i felt that
To anyone who's sad like me right now listening to this, Just know that wherever you are...You're safe enough to take the time to read this and listen to this song. Whatever your situation is will get better and I love you
I actually needed this, thank you. I love you too.
I’m am a smoker and am suicidal and this song makes me think to try sort life out
You got this. Just breathe. You can get through this!
i hope you have someone to talk to, whether that be a loved one, a professional, or even a stranger. in a world with hope, there is something deep down that makes your life have worth, and hope, and love. dont buy into the smalltalk people say if nothing will change, you just gotta put a little effort to see the brighter side. i wish the best for you
you got this
I believe in you! I’m a stranger so this probably won’t mean anything.. like at all 😂🤚🏼 but you’ll get through this and come out a BILLION times stronger, and you’ll be so fucking proud of yourself for everything you survived! Everyday there will be something new for you to smile about.. you’ll be so confident that those sad memories will just fade away! :)
You’ve got this. ❤️ I hope that life gets better for you. 🙏🏻
‘They are dead, and they are gone’
Favorite part (That flat note is perfect)
Dear 13 year old me,
You're tired. I know this, you know this, everyone knows this. You need to vent, or ask for help. You can't keep everything bottled up all the time, and we both know there's a lot from the past 4 years bottled up. You try fooling yourself with the idea that it's because of middle school sadness, or the people you hanged our with. Stop lying to yourself, and do something. Don't get too deep into your thoughts all the time. You can't do this by yourself. Stop lying to your friends, family, and mostly yourself. You can't cry. You don't know why, and search for other things to feel relief. Surround yourself with people who care, and people you trust. Please, I know you have doubts, but you need this.
From, future me (hopefully)
Hey, are you ok now?
@@annalis863 i'm doing a lot better than i was when i wrote this
14 year old me approves of this message
Im 18 now and looking back to when I was 13 I used to listen to this song and cry. I was super depressed and in a really similar place that you are. I could've definitely used some words of encouragement like this from my older self because i promise you it really does get better. you'll grow and learn and find so much love for the world and everything will really be okay. Just takes time. Be patient and loving with yourself !
"and if your still breathing, your the lucky ones. Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs.."
How do some people deserve to be happy and others don’t, that didn’t even do anything wrong. How are famous people so special. I don’t understand like why can’t we all be treated the same. ( just my opinion )
This is the law of life :")
HOLY SHIT WHEN DID THIS SONG BLEW UP I WASNT READY 🥺🥺🥺
m a r i c i n guess TH-cam finally decided to recommend people some good music
I loved this slowed version and I'm glad I found it it's amazing
🥺
WAAAA😭😭😭

Dear 80 year-old me:
Please, never leave your inner child behind. Even if it hurts. Just don't.
I have a tattoo on me for exactly that.
Life is strange vibes🌫️
YES
YESSS!

Yeahhh:(
Shit, i want to change the past and play the game for the first time again, so i could feel the tingly feeling really strong again :’)
0:46 is the part I was looking for♥️
I love this thank you!
1:10
This is beautiful love! 💕
after losing my brother my life became so hard, i woke up everyday barely able to breath. i felt like an elephant was constantly sitting on my chest and no matter what i did i just could catch my breath. it’s been 4 years now and i still feel this way. i still can’t breath without pain.
This makes me feel numb 😭 I love it thank you ❤
No problem 🖤
yeh :/
Listening to this makes me think of a villain that could've been redeemed, but was killed instead, and waits for nothing in an empty darkness.
omg same lol
Good idea for a book ngl
Draco malfoy :/
4 million views, 3 years later. i am deeply grateful for everyone who watched this shitty video i made in the middle in the night. thank you.
so so much.
we thank u, I listen to this like every few days :) much love
Of course, it's a beautiful video, thank you, I hope you have an amazing day
Does anybody just feel lonely and like they will never get loved :(
me 🤚😔
God loves you, and is always with you, come to Jesus❤️
And here i am again. Rethinking my hole life and regretting everything. Crying to myself since no one around me cares. Breaking every second a little bit more without anyone noticing. I just don't see a reason to get going. I have no reason. And will never have one.
Hey, you still here? I hope so.
I know it's hard. But, you have people that care for you, maybe in the shadows, but they're there. There is still a reason to keep living. You might not find it yet, but you will know eventually. The horrible things that happened are gone. They're just a memory. Learn from those memories if you can, and keep going. You don't know me and I don't know you, but I know, that we will do something beautiful one day. For us, or for others.
I don't know if I explained myself, I don't know English that well. But I hope at least I cheered you up, and if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here :)
Love ya, stranger! Keep living and loving❤️
hey, how are you doing now? i really hope things have gotten better. i know you have lots of regrets, but as time goes by, you have the opportunity to make better choices and do better things--things you won't regret. and that in itself is a reason to live, to make life better for yourself and those around.
i love you, wherever you are.
10 - 12 yr old me listened to this song and sobbed. she was in a horrible mindset and never thought she would truly be happy. she had some pretty bad thoughts and even some horrible plans. luckily she was too scared to go through with them and is now living an incredible, fun and utterly happy life. everything is right and i couldn't imagine never being able to get to this point in my life. listening to this again has brought back those memories. i cant believe the pain i used to feel. its honestly shocking, im so glad i made it. i am a lucky one.
Dear 12 year old me,
It’s hard. Life is hard I tell you. But you’re still here, you’re a year clean now and I’m very proud of you. Obviously your attempt didn’t work but that’s good. You met really great people, you’re still with your sucky family but you have great friends. You’re not in a relationship but there is this one girl who’s an absolute sweetheart and we just got off the phone with eachother. We’re making it and that’s amazing. Like takes some harsh turns in order to keep going on the road but, we’re on a good ride right now. It’s great. I love you, and your friends love you. Be safe, and remember. Don’t stop just because it’s hard, change the way you’re doing it and it won’t be easy but you’ll get through and it’ll feel so much better.
this song give off that special vibe I can't describe it
1:16 close your eyes and think about the happy moments of your life ❤️
You know, my dog was put down today. Lived to be 14 years old... I remembered him trying to grab the biggest rock from the rivers he could! It hurts but he's better. He was old.
Thanks for making me cry 🙂💕
you have no idea, on how much this song makes me cry.
This song reminds me of all the black victims of police brutality that have been murdered. Rest in Power George Loyd and many others ❤️❤️❤️🖤🤎

He didnt need to die like that, but you do realize he was convicted *Nine* separate times for theft, aswell as holding a loaded gun to a pregnant *Black womans stomach* right?
Nice thoughts 💭
@@arkthefennecfox2366 the officers who killed him didn't know that. They only knew about a counterfeit bill. They killed him over a single counterfeit bill, not for his past crimes. So his past crimes are not relevant to his murder.
Mads B yeah but we shouldn’t be acting like he was this all good person who needs to be praised
To anyone reading this (including myself),
I know times may be bad but please don’t give up...your are wanted, loved, and beautiful. Things will get better. Keep going, I know you can do it, you’re very strong! I love you, remember to take care of yourself, okay.💕
Thank you for this, it evokes a feeling of nostalgia i never knew was present within me❤️
i have listened to this like 200 times now :D
i keEP CRYING-
This song makes me want to go out in the middle of nowhere, and just scream. As loud as I can, letting go of my stress.
Please take me with u
Same, im so lost
we should all do this together.
@@Ghastlyqueer me too.. hows it going?
@@nino821 I'm good now :) I got help after a really bad attempt and am alot happier now, I hope you are okay though
Would appreciate it if someone liked this comment after quite some time passes!❤️
Dear 13 year old me,
how’s dad? is he still ignoring you when you tell him you love him? does he still pretend to want you and love you to get you to come to his house just for him to lock himself in his room with girls coming in and out every other hour? does he still force you to eat healthy regardless that you’re under weight? does he still bring girls in and out of your life just for you to come to his house one day and never see them again, resulting in increasingly severe abandonment issues? does mom still not believe you that he’s a sociopath even though he’s been diagnosed already?
does your brother still come sleep with you at night because he’s afraid of sleeping in the room next to dad? does his mom (me and him don’t have the same mother, my dad sleeps around a lot. mind you, my brother is barely 6) still compare him to dad and end up ranting to me, crying because he’s trying so hard to not become the monster he is?
do you still crave affection from men because you never got any growing up? does mom still call you a psychopath because the gene runs in dads side of the family? have you gotten therapy for the fact that dad left for 7 years and came back just so he wouldn’t go to jail? did he ever show up to court to fight for his rights for you, or was he out doing drugs instead?
does mom still drink herself to sleep? does she still think your schizophrenia is just “hormones”? does she still call you unlovable, ruthless, and unstable?
does Daisy, your bestfriend, still call you dramatic for cutting lines? does she still ignore your texts for days and when she finally responds, it’s a single word (i.e “ok”, “lol”, or “yea”) does she still invite her friends over in front of you without asking you as well?
does jay, your step dad, still leave at 8 am and come home at 7 to yell at mom and get high upstairs on the balcony? does he still favor your step sister, his daughter, who you don’t share the same dad with, over you?
does Chop, your dog, still lay in your lap while you cry blasting your music at night? does he still sleep heavy no matter where you go together because he’s used to the loud noises?
do people still tell you you’re fortunate because of the money your parents make without knowing what goes on at home? have people noticed your ED? have people noticed your scars? have people noticed your slipping grades? do you still day drink or have your parents caught on again? does mom still threaten to beat you? did you go to therapy yet or have you cancelled it, yet again, because you genuinely believe you don’t deserve to get better? do you still take liquid meds instead of pills because you’re afraid you’re going to get addicted to them like mom and dad did?
and most importantly,
how many days clean are you, if at all? sober even?
Come back in a few months, future self. i’m sure it’s all gotten even worse.
its been an year, how're you??
I hope you're doing better
I am so sorry to hear that! Ik it’s a year later, but if you ever want to talk then I’m right here! I hope you’re okay
Love you mate, hope you're doing well, I wish I could meet all the people here in this comments section, I'm tired of people saying good things to me never being there when i'm crying for help.
2020? 😂❤️❤️
I'm listening to this while on my padio couch, while it's raining, and I'm surrounded by fireflys as the sun goes down. I feel like the main character....
Lucky you
you are hun
you are always the main character! learning to romanticize your life is the most important. ❤️
@@croutonwheeler2734 that is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me🥺💕💘
This song always hits close to home, especially now...
Dear 12 year old me, your life was rocky and it will continue to be but always remembers your brother is there with you. Your mother loves you, despite what you'll always feel. You'll find someone that makes your heart soar, but it will go against your family's beliefs. You will become whom you truly are, despite being born in the false body. You will succeed, and those scars you'll have will always be beautiful to the one you hold closest. Your are beautiful, you are kind, you are needed. Never forget that
This song reminds me of when I cry at night and feel helpless. When my lungs close in and I’m gasping for air but I can’t make a noise. When all I want is someone to wrap their arms around me and say that it’s fine but it’s really not. When I know that I have to be there for my friends but it’s so hard when they won’t listen to me. When I know that they don’t care about me and I have to just take care of myself but I can’t and I put on that fake smile and say that everything’s fine but it feels like someone is grabbing my chest and stabbing it repeatedly but I can’t do anything about it because if I talk about it then I’m being dramatic so I’m just stuck, pretending that I’m fine when I cry myself to sleep every night and “wonder why” my face is blotchy and my eyes are puffy in the morning. I hate it. I can’t do this. But I have to. I hate this.
This song just makes me smile while I’m crying, watching my friend being happy. While I’m hiding feelings for her :’)
Oh my god i remember this song... I listed to this song all the time when it came out... this just randomly appeared on my recommended..🥺
Daughter already makes me bawl my eyes out regardless of my mood, this just upped it to a whole new level
Am I the only one who’s still crying about Max, Chloe and Rachel? Just me
Okay
and Kate..
Me,im still simping for chloe
I suffer with depression ,anxiety and dpdr...it’s like I’m pushed away from the world and I’m alone. I don’t know how to keep moving , I don’t know how to keep going , and this song just makes my heart sink and my tears stay locked up.
2019?
FluffyHerooヅ 2020 😂
nope
I’m here in 2020, haha.

2021
hey me, i just wanted to say
im proud of you. you made it, its been hard but you made it. the pain may have been unbearable at some points but you made it. you did it. youre alive and breathing. you may have struggled but you made it. im sorry you dealt with that all alone, but i promise you that it wasn't your fault. youre no longer alone. no longer helpless, no longer hurt, no longer crying. youve wasted enough tears, and you moved on. im so happy now. we did it, we really did.
I need an hour long version of this 😭
This is the auditory manifestation of despair and it is beautiful
This makes the song even more sad...I love it
🥺♥️ I don't even have anything to say about this song, the lyrics touch my soul 🥺💘💘
Shadows settle on the place, that you left
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time
From the perfect start to the finish line
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong
We are the reckless
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone
We're setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting pictures from the flood that wrecked our home
It was a flood that wrecked this
Ugh this song just brings back so many memories of my child hood, it just hits a place in my heart that makes me sad but also filled with joy. I love this song and it will always be my favorite!🥺💕
2021 anyone??? Still sad aye?🙃
nothing changed huh? we're all still here i guess
This song brings back so many memories. It hits a place in my heart that makes me sad but also fills me with joy. I don’t know how to explain it but this will forever be my favorite song, I love it with everything in me. I just felt like I should share that, since everyone else is sharing what the song means to them. I hope everyone who’s reading this has a wonderful day.💕
Dear 15 years old me
I know middle school was a terrible time , you were unfitted, rejected and hated by the others. During groups work you were always alone or with people that hates you for who you are. Know you want to kill yourself because High school is coming and you are too afraid about living the same shit than before but no .. it will not be the case. You are going to meet the most loveable person on earth , they will care about you , makes you laugh and help you fitting. High school will be the most beautiful time for you with the best fiends you are ever meet in your whole life. Please don’t die , or you will waste your beautiful futur with those people !
The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Hello everyone! You'll probably never interact with me again, so I'd like to leave you all with one simple message: healing is worth it. I know it's SO hard sometimes. Some days you feel like you can't even get out of bed, let alone pursue something you used to be so passionate about. I know the feeling. This year, it felt like I was swimming upstream, fighting a never-ending barrage of setbacks, each one more crushing than the last. I worked so hard every day only to be knocked down again by depressive episodes, injuries, a tumor, covid... it never seemed to end. But amidst the chaos, I experienced so many new and rewarding things in my life. Falling in love, finding new creative ways to interact with others, learning new things, finding myself, pursuing my passion, and picking myself back up when I could have stayed down... those were the things that made healing worth it for me. All of this is to say that while it may seem so easy to give up on healing, you need to take care of yourself. Healing isn't easy. Take it one day at a time. Remind yourself where you came from, and never lose sight of your goals. You deserve to experience all the beautiful things that this life has to offer. You do. So please don't give up, ok? It will be so worth it to see yourself on the other side of what you're going through. So to whoever is reading this, I wish you so much happiness in this life and beyond. I love you.
i love you for this
I listened to this song shortly after my parents seperated. I felt that was the beginning of the end of my childhood. I'm healed now but it took a long time.
Beautiful! Can you make Sociopath by Stélouse slowed down?
Thank you!
When I have time, I will! 🖤
If your reading this I hope you have a great day and remember the world loves you and needs you 🤎

And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it
Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silouhette
A lifeless face that you'll soon forget
My eyes are damp from the words you left
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts from ever missing them
But I'm forever missing him
And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it
the way that I relate to basically every lyric. Especially “We’re the lovers that went wrong”
I came here because of the BNHA edits in Instagram... 😔✋

Who is seeing this wonderful music in quarantine?

this song just reminds me of winter.
but that specific type of winter, where its so cold that all your emotions and feelings are numb.
Hello, 11 year old me!! I have some questions:
-do your parents know?
-if they do, are you safe, are you being sent away to a camp?
-Are you still alive? Or was it too much in the end?
-What are your relationships with Ayden and Avery?How are they doing?
-did you make any good memories?
-did you open up to your therapist?
-How are you doing?
-Do you still cry daily?
-Is your Roblox avatar still lemon themed :D?
-Is your room the same? What has changed if not?
-Are you still allowed your iPad at night?
-do you have a favorite stuffed animal?
-Do you love yourself?

Only on Friday and Saturday.

This song gives me goosebumps... it makes me live alive rather than nothing...
"Battle" music😶❤❤❤
This song is something I needed. I have a character that just lost her love and I can relate to her since 5 years ago.
it sounds more peaceful to me
I remember when my sister was alive and we'd listen to this together all the time... We felt so calm and happy together, wow, ... I miss you sister. Weird that I'm sitting here listening to this song without you... I'm so depressed man.
Ive known this song since 2010 i was 7.
the song was released in 2013 but go off????
this song was released in 2013 but ok
Hey 12 year old me.
She didn’t stay and watch you grow
She didn’t get better
But you did
You grew, and prospered even through the pain
Mom loves you. So does dad.
They just didn’t love themselves enough to stay.
I’m sorry your crying,
That doesn’t change little one.
you will be okay, I promise.
you grew up faster than everyone else
you are gonna be okay
lol hi this is kind of irrelevant but i’m having my boyfriend over at my house this week and i was wondering if anyone had any ideas of things we could do together? i’m scared ill bore him lmao
how did it go?
@@lea2767 I wonder if they're still together
Bogdi same
Lacey Adams OH MY GOD i totally forgot that i posted this. we broke up literally a month later. i’m not even kidding, two weeks ago he asked me if i wanted to get back together with him WHILE HE WAS IN A RELATIONSHIP?? so i sent a screenshot of that bitch to his girlfriend. i’m also gay now, lmao
Closeted Skeleton well that was a rollercoaster
The original was a masterpiece, but this version officially broke me harder than it should. It is almost as if the pain that were felt in the past is now dragged out due to depression and anxiety beyond all sense of what is right and wrong and instead of the sharp pain of recollection that is presented in the original, this is now a dull and long lasting affliction that stays with us until the very end.
Dear stranger,
We might never see eachother, but who am i to say? Anyways... i know that life can be truly hard, and the pressure is ginormus, lets not even talk about all the negativity we drown in. But you just have to know that, the world is big, the universe is big. And well we are strong human beings, and you can get through it. Do you really want to end it all? Right now? When you have more than you think to live? You can reach your goals always, you just have to try and believe in yourself.
Cry, if it helps.
Smile, if its true.
Hope, if you want.
Love, if you need.
But most of all believe.
Whoever reads this, never forget the fact, that Jesus loves us all unconditionally
This is officially the song who describes my life with most of the details
I used to listen to this song all the time and this came on my recommended and I teared up in like 5 seconds
this song makes me feel like im 14 again and crying myself to sleep
I am 14 crying myself to sleep while listening to this song
this song really be hitting different now
This reminds me of a dog I loved but was a lover that want wrong 💔

Nike Adidas favorite part 🥺 given me vibes
I know this song is supposed to be sad but it sounds happy whenever i cuddle with my cat.
He was lying on my lap and he looked up at me and i smiled at him and he started crying.🥺❤️
He also hugged my hand when i was petting him.
i saw some people writing to their old selves, and i'm still here so i thought i'd write something for if future me even finds this video again. read if you want too.
hey, future me.
i hope you're doing well, i hope you're not cutting and i hope you're eating enough without feeling guilty. maybe by now you're being called by a name you like, maybe you've come up with something better then Charlye? i bet your hair is super soft and brushed out, i can't wait to feel it. are you and Rain still together? i hope so, she's amazing. has your family gotten better? i wouldn't be surprised if not but that's okay! you'll be out of here one day or maybe it's so far into the future, you already are.
i hope you have more friends and i hope you've only grown closer to the ones you already have. maybe you have a big friend group and all your friends know each other! that sounds nice. either way, that's all i really wanted to say. well, except one more thing.
you've made it this far, why give up now?
Life is like walking up a mountain. There are many ways to the top, don't give up, you just haven't found your path. Stay strong x
Reddie bring me here.
