@TheBikepackingNomad 11 ай бұрын

Lol so spot on but actually almost, the "rejoice b/c youre trying your best" brings in the W for optimism. Such an awesome song.

@cardinaldeino1289 10 ай бұрын

@mitchellknapp5766 yep, "rejoice because you're trying your best" definitely overshadows the pessimism shown in the previous lyrics. But even so, there is a strong taste of poignancy throughout the song. In fact, "rejoice because you're trying your best" came as such a twist for me I even interpreted it as sarcasm at first. Quite an awesome song indeed, sounds depressing but gives you some sort of reassurance in the end.

@TapdotWater 4 жыл бұрын

I've always loved the way "your best" is sung. The oscillation makes it come out like "your har-best," as though it were both your best and your hardest at the same time.

@@sleekthegeek6669 I heard stanchions exactly like you said until I really listened to this video and looked at the stitches lyric. I think he actually is saying "exes" (used to think it was axes) and "stitches" (used to think it was stanchions). He has a thick accent but comparing them to the way he says 'witches' and 'hexes' I think OP is right. I'll still forever hear "stanchions" which are also tall cones meant for looping caution tape across, shaped like horns. There are also stanchion horns, which are elongated horns like for the hard of hearing. This does kind of contrast with the deaf idea, so I'm thinking it's stitches.

I can never tell what level of ironic this song is, like if I'm feeling well it's a sincere acceptance of everything you can't change, and if I'm feeling bad it's a satire of religious zeal in the face of terrible things...

I struggle with depersonalization and dissociation but this song along with people remind me of the world out there. Sometimes I get stuck in my head and can’t get out, and I can’t talk about because nobody takes it seriously. I thought this is what all kids and teens went through going up, but after looking up some stuff, feeling like you’re not real and thinking of hypotheticals for if you died of different ways is normal. I don’t want a therapist and I don’t want to talk to my parents. I don’t want to burden any friends with my problems. Life sucks so much sometimes and I wish I was never born sometimes. But I’m here and my goal right now is to make it out of growing up so that at least I’ll be an adult someday. I love this song

@zoomer2965 2 жыл бұрын

Hi. One of those eventual adults here. Everything here is very familiar to me. Being trans in the South didn't help. If you have the resources to pursue therapy, I do suggest giving it a try, or reach out to friends here and there. The real ones will be there for you; try to offer them the same in return. Beyond additional freedoms from reaching the age of majority, and perhaps a bit more experience, being an "adult" is an arbitrary thing; It won't magic this stuff away. But doing the above is a good step forward.
