I hate it when I song can convey a feeling more than your own words. It seems like such a copout to me. Here. Hey listen to this and get me.
But then again, I love it when a song can convey a feeling more than your own words. In fact that is music in all its essence.
I love when an artist feels their own words so emotionally that you can hear the breakdown in the crack of their voice. A weak spot in a note, a perfect flaw of emotion. Words so powerful they push us to the edges of our humanity. It's that part of music that we feed off of. That little voice in our soul that lets us know we aren't alone.
An artist goes through a dark time in their lives and loves it enough to look at it like art.
It's also the vulnerability in doing such that can draw us in, in that moment.
That moment in your life when you needed to hear just that. The very words, emotion, and melody of that song.
That memory. You can relate. You're not alone.
There is still love and beauty if the world. And there is life after acceptance.
This is one of those songs, the one that was there in that moment. Thank you Billie Eilish.
'When the Party's Over'
Don't you know I'm no good for you
I've learned to lose you, can't afford to
Tore my shirt to stop you bleedin'
But nothin' ever stops you leavin'
Quiet when I'm coming home and I'm on my own
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
Don't you know too much already
I'll only hurt you if you let me
Call me friend but keep me closer (Call me back)
And I'll call you when the party's over
Quiet when I'm coming home and I'm on my own
And I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
Yeah I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
But nothing is better sometimes
Once we've both said our goodbyes
Let's just let it go
Let me let you go
Quiet when I'm coming home and I'm on my own
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that
I could lie, say I like it like that, like it like that..
<3
