it was that feeling of just wanting to pull the covers up over your head and never leave your bed. It sucked.
This year i really have a new anthem. This song is so... fucking good. Please listen to it.
Rilo Kiley - Better Son/Daughter
Sometimes in the morning I am petrified and can't move
Awake but cannot open my eyes.
And the weight is crushing down on my lungs
I know I can't breathe
And hope someone will save me this time.
And your mother's still calling you insane and high
Swearing it's different this time,
And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her
And that god never blessed her insides.
Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things
And crawl back into bed to dream of a time
When your heart was open wide and you love things just because
Like the sick and dying
And sometimes when you're on
You're really fucking on
And your friends they sing along
And they love you.
But the lows are so extreme
That the good seems fucking cheap
And it teases you for weeks in its absence.
But you'll fight and you'll make it through
You'll fake it if you have to
And you'll show up for work with a smile.
And you'll be better
You'll be smarter
More grown up and a better daughter or son
And a real good friend.
And you'll be awake
You'll be alert
You'll be positive though it hurts
And you'll laugh and embrace all of your friends.
You'll be a real good listener
You'll be honest
You'll be brave
You'll be handsome and you'll be beautiful
You'll be happy
Your ship may be coming in
You're weak but not giving in
To the cries and the wails of the valley below
Your ship may be coming in
You're weak but not giving in
And you'll fight it
You'll go out fighting all of them
