  “Feeling sorry for myself when I remember someone’s kid is dead.” Wow this hit my core. Wow. Beautiful writing. I find her song lyrics so relatable

  When people always be telling me her music is so sad, but there's such a beauty to the sadness. To me it's a beauty that takes you away. Maybe thats what sadness is in a way. A deep part of sadness is also beautiful.

  my son died 4/17/20 at age 40, and this song saved me.  I was the DAD, and You'd think it would have depressed me even more , but it comforted me and still does.  Danny played piano and sang so sweet and he would have loved this song too.

  To be able to sing something like this, knowing it is her own song, and not break down mid-way through or drop some tears is a triumph of the human spirit...Her songwriting is such a beautiful catharsis.  Very important songwriter.

  Maybe it is because I am 75 I like this song so much. But wait, it is not because I am nearer to death, no, it is because of Phoebes way to express this feeling. Despite the sorrow. We are all travelling with a companion, young or old, and we know the name of that companion. So I am rather happy listening to her words, understanding &nbsp;that young people have the same feelings about this. And we go on living the best we can.

  &quot;feeling sorry for myself when i remember someone&apos;s kid is dead.&quot;<br><br>this part hits differently when you are at your lowest and you wanted to die but then you just heard from someone you knew recently died. immediately those thoughts goes away cus you felt sorry for them and realize you are grateful for still breathing while its their time already.

  Is it just me, or does Phoebe Bridgers look like an ethereal, otherworldy entity?

  “and i have this dream that i’m screaming underwater, while my friends are waving from the shore” felt that. you’re just drowning in your own thoughts and no one notices anything’s wrong

  A friend of mine committed suicide a few years ago, this song makes me feel so vulnerable about it, but warm at the same time. I always think about his family, his dad died last year, so I started to think about it even more. I can&apos;t help crying every time I listen to this song, I feel understood in a very deep way<br>I&apos;ve always wanted to go back to my childhood, where things were so much easier, i think about the future, and he is not there, he just stayed eternally in his 15 years.
