Kimya Dawson has to be one of the most amazing song writers out there. Her songs have so much meaning, whether they be silly or serious. She is absolutely fantastic :]
This is "Hold My Hand", track # 7 from Kimya's first solo album, "I'm Sorry That Sometimes I'm Mean" (2002) and not the one pictured in the video. "Stinky Stuff" is track # 8. Two different songs.
What she says is so true. Often when you go to authorities or the child themself goes to the principle etc. Those in power just go to the parents and the parents laugh it off or move away. The people who are meant to protect these kids often let them down the most. Kimya really has a powerful way with her words that every few have.
I can't phisically cry when I'm emotional anymore :/ haven't been able to for a long time, but this song broke my heart... It's beautiful, it's horrible :( I don't understand how anyone could ever diliberatly hurt another human being...
this comments a couple years old, but Imma still respond lol- I also love Kimya's voice c: the first song I ever heard of her was "My Mom" and her voice is what made me look into her other music
This was actually hard to listen to. The hardest part was that she actually tried to help. Most of the time, no one knows, no one believes you, no one cares, or it's too late.
this song is beautiful but heartbreaking. but really it just makes me angry and want to find a way to help those kids. you can contact childhelpusa in the US or the nspcc in the UK if you think a child is being abused or neglected do something about it, don't be like the parents who "instead of getting help, they just pretended everything was okay"
these lyrics are so true. there is a little girl in my school. she is in 6th grade i think. my bestfriend lives next door to her, and she says she hears that girl screaming "don't hit my face, people will see!" she comes to school dirty, starving, and beaten. kids make fun of her more than anyone. because she is so loud all of the time and she smells bad. but they have to realize she only picks the screaming off of her ignorant parents. the social workers don't do shit about it either..
thnakyou kimya dawson, It's horrible not not even horrible but horrifying to know there are kids and even babies out there who are being smakes, hit, punched and sexualy abused every day... every hour..... every minute. Sometimes i try to retend that this doesn't happen and that it alll has just stopped out of the kindness of peoples heart but the truth is there is no backing out. Things like this does happen and its horriible it just makes me want to cry.
@theclamorofcate but it impedes on the first amendment and many of constitutional laws but we could have the government pay good parents by giving them tax cuts or some benefit even though you have to take good care of your child plus no one wants there freedom of speech or any of there freedoms taken away unless 2/3 of the nation agrees with you then its alrite to take peoples freedom away hooray for following the majority
How do I listen to this without a puddle of tears ? reminds me of being 13 in pain and comforted by these lyrics more than anything

Haven't heard this in ten years. Still makes me cry.
This is Hold My Hand. Stinky Stuff is a different song.
The line "well my dad, he hates me" gets me every time..
I love her so much. Honestly this song has so much meaning to me.
I'm not crying my eyes are just sweating.

I'm watching The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez and thought of this song, even after not listening to it for over 10 years. :(

this song is beautiful but heartbreaking.
but really it just makes me angry and want to find a way to help those kids.
you can contact childhelpusa in the US

if you think a child is being abused or neglected do something about it, don't be like the parents who "instead of getting help, they just pretended everything was okay"

@draculasbreakfast she does, it's called emotional singing were you don't need a voice you just need something to sing straight from the hreat!
its so sad but i cant stop listening
all of these comments are so old it's making me sad for some reason lol. here 2023.
back in 2024 forgot i commented this!!
i love kimya dawnson:D she always makes the best music but this song is sad ): it makes me cry D: i like her voice though, its unique
Heard this on The Strokes In Transit.
SO MANY FEELS ;O;

Does anyone know the chords for this?
my daughter picked out the chords to this today. She can be found at xmikywayx if you want to get them.
Chorus is F G C Am apart from the last line which is just F G C.
Sad, that I can mixed a lot of the parts of this song and you will know most of my childhood.
I cried :/
@draculasbreakfast Shut up! Kimya has the best singing voice ever. Watch her other songs.
Lol. this is song is all sweet and cute... than turns psycho! Lmao! Omg. xD
stinky stuff is the recording after it...
It's based around F G C
most of it is just F and G and then back to F.
Oh my god :'( x3
♡
CPS does suck. :(
the beginning kinda of reminded of "I am sam"
Bloody good song I think. Very sad though.
That is good.. sad :s
i can't believe that kids of 2-6 year old wrote this
its sad that they have to think like this.
but its a great song
omg... D''':
i wasnt being serious... but this is a really sad song
So instead of getting help, they just pretended everything was okay.
Will you hold my hand..... :'(
don't steal kimyas songs :(
