you said that you did
Maybe one i can stand, work a little harder Modest, ice-age heat wave
Why does it always feel like i m caught in an undertow, i know that starting over is not what life s all about
I pack up my belongings and i head for the coast, gonna float on maybe would you understand
Maybe one i can stand, walk along to another day
They both seem to make me feel a little less insane, walk along to another day
I know that starting over is not what life s all about, the days get shorter and the nights get cold
The day s get longer and the nights smell green, the days get shorter and the nights get cold, it might not be a lot but i feel like i m making the most
If the world s at large, went to the porch to have a thought
The moths beat themselves to death against the lights, well uh-uh baby i ain t got no plan
you said that you did
but you still got your words and you got your friends
gonna float on maybe would you understand
got to the door and again
i guess it s not surprising but it s spring and i should leave
they both seem to make me feel a little less insane
I didn t know what i had that day, got to the door and again
I couldn t stop, i guess it s not surprising but it s spring and i should leave Large, i couldn t hear my mouth
the days get shorter and the nights get cold
work a little harder
walked away to another plan
The days get shorter and the nights get cold, well i ll float on maybe would you understand, but my thoughts were so loud
Gonna find another place, we ll float on maybe would you understand At, maybe one i can stand
You don t know where and you don t know when, i know that starting over is not what life s all about
they both seem to make me feel a little less insane
I pack up my belongings and i head for the coast, gonna find another place
the day s get longer and the nights smell green
you said that you did
I heard this song on the way to school on the last day of 8th grade. I ended up dropping out of public school to get home schooled two weeks into 9th grade because I had awful anxiety each day that made me physically sick. After I left, just about all of my friend's from school blocked me on social media and haven't talked to me since.
I took two weeks off to recover from my stress and in those two weeks, I listened to this song so many times. I felt so bad inside and wanted to just... Give up. I felt like school didn't matter anymore and living was pointless because anxiety cloaked over me like a blanket. It made everything, going shopping, walking the dog, or talking on the phone, feel like I was on a roller coaster.
Now I'm in tenth grade. I'm on medicine that makes my life worth living. I'm working hard, still home schooled, to get into a college that can help me achieve my dream of being an author.
To everyone out there feeling like giving up, don't. There's always going to be bad days, bad months or years even, but sunshine will always poke through the grey clouds.
I believe in you. Keep on chugging along, I promise it always gets better.
float on, ocean breathes salty, dramamine, and world at large. 4 great modest mouse songs. this is a good song to listen to when you want to feel blue.
I hope that whoever is listening to this song and reading the comment that something wonderful and amazing comes your way. Whenever you're feeling down, always know that something good is coming your way.
