Bartees Strange covers The National for SoS and The 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline

“There were many months, many years that were super dark, super dark times. And I always like clung to music as something that could remind me that there were other people in the world like me, that felt the way I felt and wanted things to become the way I wanted them to become. And that was honestly what got me through the darkest moments of my life. I'm 32 and things just started working.” - Bartees Strange

“Today
You were far away
And I
Didn't ask you why
What could I say?
I was far away
You just walked away
And I just watched you”
