sorry i can’t take your touch, man. it’s not you it’s just that i fell in love with a war

who gave neutral milk hotel the right to punch my right in the feels every damn time ??? not allowed

me, scrolling through my spotify, trying to choose what to listen to: ooh sufjan stevens let’s listen to him...

me, less than a minute later: 

oops

You like the way you hurt yourself today

Nobody thinks I’m special yet

Watch "Michael Bolton - How Am I Supposed To Live Without You" on YouTube

Damn. Every time this song comes on the radio, all I could think of is the boys hearing this song echoing in the lair from Donnie's music speaker, missing their girlfriends from a break up over a fight, and it makes them wanting a second chance by reaching out on social media or phone number. (If their numbers and social media arent blocked of course. Surely April would reach out for them to help.) It just makes them realize what it's like to lose someone who loved them for who they are and being accepted by another human being for once, yet getting their hearts shattered later on in the process and afterwards feeling depressed and lonely 24/7. Ouch. 🥺

i’m going to give a comprehensive list of songs that hit way too hard for me or that i cry to, because im little lonely (only child syndrome) and have no one else to tell 😁.

Liability by Lorde

i so vividly remember listening to this song for the first time, and it was like someone put how i felt every single fucking day into a song. i just felt like a huge burden to everyone and everything. especially since i had to whole sad clown thing going on (being the life of the party and silly until i had to be apart from anything that happily distracted me). so many nights were spent laying on the ground and staring at the ceiling, or sobbing in a dark closet to that song. thanks lorde 😍! (/s)

Stay by Post Malone

by far one of the most embarrassing songs on this list 😭. sorry unfortunately i dabble in hating mainstream artists (particularly yt men). however, an old friend of mine showed me this song as one of her fave sad songs to cry to, and i was like thanks im stealing this for my playlist 😁. once again just a song that put my thoughts into words (omg i love art), and i really just needed someone to hug me and tell me everything would be okay. also strangely, it’s a great song for if you’ve had a rocky relationship with your mom or anyone you love so deeply you’d do anything for but shit happens and you both fumble the ball, so now everyone is pissed off. like post simultaneously asking someone to (hopefully figuratively)put their cigarette out on his face, but also stick around for him and love him and tell him everything is okay? yeah real.

I’m Not A Mountain by Sarah Kinsley

fully almost cried when i saw/heard this live, because Sarah almost cried. *defeated* yeah. just another lonely girl who can’t set a boundary to save her life so she runs from her problems and has a sharp tongue song. i’ve said things that i didn’t mean out of anger and so deeply regret because i caused a friendship to end. i have people i (sort of) want a relationship with that i can’t get back because i’ve learned too much and im living in the past in some ways (rightfully so imo) (yes im contradicting myself ik). but yeah sometimes i wish i was a mountain too.

Last Time We Never Meet Again by Sarah Kinsley

sarah kinsley you will always be famous.

but fr this song was simultaneously a swift kick to the gut, but also a breath of fresh air. i was fresh off of calling it quits with a guy (like a month lol), and i had a lot of firsts with him (first serious relationship, first music festival, first time traveling without family, etc) not s*x though someone else beat him to it lmao.) so basically i was ranting to my mom and friends about him and everything i didn’t like that he did, because everything around me reminded me of him and it PISSED ME OFF to no end. then this album (Escaper) dropped (thank god), and once again this song was just everything i felt. like i can’t stand you, i never want to see you again, but hope everything works out how you want it to (im not a monster guys cmon). he called me tho like last week to make small talk and then ask me questions about his personality and stuff. so then that re-pissed me off bc i deleted his number while i was drunk on vacation, and i don’t follow him on anything anymore like pls take a hint.

Casual by Chappell Roan

self-explanatory.

Magnolia by Laufey

let me preface this by being a butthole and let everyone know how cool i am, because i was into laufey before she was uber famous. like im talking tickets to her show were $30. anyways!

basically a girl strung me along, and then left me for a mid yt man 😁. this song was there for me when i was too embarrassed to tell my friends what happened. didn’t cry, but definitely gazed out of my window on a rainy day and listened to the song on repeat for an hour or two (yes this is a part of my villain origin story) (yes i know im a terrible villain fr, more sad and lazy than vengeful)

Baby by Brittany Howard

feeling like i wasn’t enough and didn’t measure up (especially romantically)

Sullen Girl by Fiona Apple

my mom actually played an old fiona apple cd for me while we packed up our house to move. this song really stuck with me bc that whole summer (‘22) was a blur. the second half of the song genuinely sent me into shock because it gave me war flashbacks of childhood trauma that i try to repress 😍. then my mom told me, she pictured me as the sullen girl during my lowest moments and i cried and we hugged.

Cellophane by FKA Twigs

self-explanatory. especially if you’ve seen anania’s tiktoks to this song (doing mundane tasks, deadpan thousand yard stare, and this song blaring). i feel the same way girl, me too. also that music video is literally stunning.

Prey by The Neighborhood

ahhh an old classic. honestly the whole Wiped Out! album is good to cry to but this is a personal favorite. sobbed for two hours then fell asleep because why not. i felt like a waste of space that couldn’t do anything right (i still feel like that sometimes). you are so right jesse rutherford i do feel like something is wrong (i have extreme anxiety, everything feels off and i will freak out at any moment) i feel like prey (i will be chastised and ostracized the moment i do something wrong, and everyone is watching, also i was unmedicated).

okay besties this was a really short little playlist and long thoughts i randomly wanted to get out. thanks for letting me be annoying and reading 😍 (i say to my 5 followers, 2 of which are bots)

also omg pls comment your fav songs or leave recommendations or links to your playlists! i’d love to hear themmm

Sometimes it is love

But

Sometimes it is convenience

It is habit

It is default

It is staying for the kids

For the cat

It is 'the right thing to do'

It is a co-owned apartment and too much hassle to move out

It is the fact that your parents really like this one

Sometimes it is love

But

Sometimes it is duty

It is excuse

It is staying because you don't know how to leave

It is the infatuation with stability

With permanency

Sometimes it is love

But sometimes

It is friendship

Or lust

Or pity

Or forgetting who you are without them

But remembering is a vicious process

Sometimes it is love

But

Sometimes it is

I can fix him this time

He'll change this time

He promised he wouldnt

Do it

Again

Sometimes it is love

Sometimes it is

She promised

She promised

She promised

I

Promised

Sometimes it is love

But

Sometimes it is promises

It is living off nostalgia

It is chasing memories

It is trying to prove this is not like the last time

It is trying to make it work

It is damage control

It is doing everything possible not to go back on your word

But we are not the same people we were when we made those vows

Do they even count now?

I think they do

I think I want them to

I think I dont

It is trying to hold on to the person you were when you said yes

Sometimes it is love

Sometimes it is the the silence between us

That has never left me to brave the night alone

I am scared

Of what the quiet might become when it is wholly my own again

It has been so long

Since anything has really belonged to me

Sometimes it is love

But

Sometimes it is fear

Alot of the time it is fear

Sometimes it is love

Sometimes it is an apology

Sometimes it is the only way we know how to say I forgive you

Or

I am sorry

Sometimes it is love

Sometimes it is a mistake

But what good is acknowledging something you can't fix

What is The point

Of stating the obvious?

Sometimes it is love

But

Sometimes it is 2 children who let themselves believe they understood everything

So that they did not have to grapple with what they did not

Sometimes it is love

But

Sometimes it is pretending it is

So that you do not have to face

That it

Is

Not.

~ the things we call love when there is nothing left

me, gatekeeping a song I’m about to finish writing that would absolutely tear everyone’s hearts apart 😁

💙💛

incorrect death grips lyrics

I gave you all that I have inside And you took my love You took my love I keep crying I keep trying for you There's nothing like you and I, baby This is no ordinary love No ordinary love This is no ordinary love No ordinary love

oh i've been a fool again, sade have come to save me again, so i made a photo tribute to the mother of love & heartache ballads

if you ever want to be absolutely devastated by a song i highly recommend beautiful boy by esha tewari. actually here is a playlist of the 4 songs that most perfectly sum up heartbreak with someone you were never fully with in the first place.

Mourn those who you love, for you won't be able to see them forever

lyrics to my current favorite song (TW ⚠️)

I can't stand to look into my reflection anymore 'Cause I can't remember the night before (oh, I) And I had a lot to give in life, but I fucked up every aspect What did I expect? already living the outcome Wake up with a heartache (knowing that I'm never done) But I'm stuck, so I'm staring at the ceiling Too tired, too scared of what I'm feeling Can't call it addiction, if I can't even remember whatever it was that I was tripping off

Dreams telling me I'm six feet down Choking in my vomit in my sleep, don't drow-ow-ow-own Tired of the same old (same old) bullshit Wish that you would love what I told you, guess

I'ma lose it in the end, still reaping what I sow and Losing myself, lost sight of what's important Needed something in my life to drown out all the noise and Got a pretty pocket full of pills filled with poison 'Cause our eyes hit 'em like, "Don't run" If I kill myself, I don't need no gun What's a life with no drugs? (but it ain't no fun, yeah) Don't run to the light, don't run

Looking at your face, know I can tell that you've been lying to me Clenching my jaw 'til I'm breaking my teeth Stuck in my room, always glued to my bed, know I'm tired of sleep And it always goes on and on You don't stop 'til you're told it's wrong Done with your stupid games, I don't wanna play along Got my heart inside your hands, there's blood up on my palms I don't know what else to say but fuck it, I'm a-

I'ma lose it in the end, still reaping what I sow and Losing myself, lost sight of what's important Needed something in my life to drown out all the noise and Got a pretty pocket full of pills filled with poison 'Cause our eyes hit 'em like, "Don't run" If I kill myself, I don't need no gun What's a life with no drugs? (but it ain't no fu-u-u-u-, yeah) Don't run to the light, don't run

Wake Up -EDEN

'Cause we've been driving so long I can't remember how we got here Or how we survived so long I'm trying to run from our pride 'Til you set fire to my atmosphere

And I remember how I spent the 23rd Feeling six feet under When I'm 30, 000 feet in the air Chasing that sundown So far East, I'm Westbound Feeling like the edge of this world is near

But you'll feel better when you wake up Swear to God I'll make up Everything and more when I get back someday This is more than just a phase, love Shooting stars all break up And even though it seems like half the world away

Things will be better in America Heard the streets are gold there Maybe I can fly you out of this place someday Chasing dreams like I'm on Novocaine Screaming through your airways Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say

Stay, you're not gonna leave me This place is right where you need to be And why your words gotta mean so much to them And they mean nothing to me?

So stay, you're not what you're hearing 'Cause I've been watching you changing And who said you're one in a million Anyway?

'Cause you see only what you want to Your tunnel vision haunts you And you can't see what's wrong And you keep sleeping through the p.m. Eyes wide open when you're dreaming You're sleepwalking, just keep talking

And maybe you can talk your way out of this deep end No B plan in your system Just tell me what you're thinking I'm scared that you might fall But you're not But you're not

And you'll feel better when you wake up Taking off your makeup Sun always seems to wash our fears away And it's always shining somewhere I just gotta get there And even though it seems like half the world away

Things are better in America Heard the streets are gold there Maybe I can fly you out of this place someday Chasing dreams like I'm on Novocaine Screaming through your airways Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say

Stay, you're not gonna leave me This place is right where you need to be And why your words gotta mean so much to them When they mean nothing to me

So stay, you're not what you're hearing 'Cause I've been watching you changing And who said you're one in a million

You're so much better than that (Oh-oh-oh-oh) You're so much better than that (oh-oh-oh-oh) (Oh-oh-oh-oh) You're so much better than that (oh-oh-oh-oh)

Stay, you're not what you were hearing (oh-oh-oh-oh) 'Cause I've been watching you changing (oh-oh-oh-oh) And who said you're one in a million (oh-oh-oh-oh) Anyway?

And you'll feel better when you wake up Swear to God I'll make up Everything or more when I get back someday Chasing dreams like I'm on Novocaine Screaming through your airways Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say: "You're so much better than that"

Every day I get a little closer to buckling and getting Spotify premium but then where would I get the moments of extreme whiplash that keep me awake on the train, like only minutes ago when an ad for the Mario movie followed Cherry Wine by hozier?? How else am I supposed to achieve my entire emotional range for the day before it’s even 9AM?
