share how you feel or about your situation using a song lyric here!
the title says it! sometimes it's hard for us to share how we are feeling and music does it for some of us, something we can simply relate and have a creative outlet to express. everyone can come and share to this thread as many times as needed!

"Just say you won't let go"
James Arthur
Pointin' out all my flaws doesn't help
Don't you love me?
Until the puzzle pieces aren't me at all
I look in the mirror, now I'm just a jigsaw-aw
@theriverissinging
The best song I've written (I'm a musician/singer) that adequately managed to capture how I feel about my crush and my life and stuff:
C#m
I've been losing my hold
A E
Give it up slow, feel the hour get cold
C#m
Caught out, tearing up the pages
Asus2 E F#7
Just shout, curses at the graces
C#m A E
No doubt, I don't see an end in sight
C#m Esus2 Badd11
I'm messed up, not what you're needing
C#m Esus2 Badd11
I'm messed up, no longer leading
C#m A
I can't find my innocence
Esus2 B
I'm so pale and nothing makes sense, now
C#m A Esus2
I’m messed up, I missed the feeling
C#m
Practice saying your name
A E
Lay no blame, I'm surprised that you stayed
C#m A
Confess, I don't know where the pain is
E F#7
Obsessed, trying to explain it
C#m A E
Don't guess, only gonna waste your time.
Chorus
Bsus
I don't hear a word you say
A6
Watch you as you walk away
Esus2
Always ending up the same
C#m
I try to speak but I can't find a lie
Chorus
Best song from my favourite artists:
The Gates:
But the specific opening lines hit me:
No I won't lose hope, no I won't lose sight
But heaven is a place I just can't find
Run from the shadows and run to the light
Running from a past I left behind
Haunted by a memory
That I just can't set free
Searching for the man
I used to be
@theriverissinging
Don't call me "kid"
Don't call me "baby"
Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me
You showed me colors
You know I can't see with anyone else
… Don't call me "kid"
Don't call me "baby"
Look at this idiotic fool that you made me
You taught me a secret language
I can't speak with anyone else
I tried to post this with so much coolness but the forum is just 💀, why does it give me 144 font size when I select 9.... and why is the paragraph space so big, 😞
*plans to come back here to post lyrics that express her emotions 🥲*
@cheerfulIceCream I am here to fix everything 🧍 tried to do something 😔

There, There by Radiohead
I go walking in your landscape
Broken branches
Trip me as I speak
Doesn't mean it's there
Just 'cause you feel it
Doesn't mean it's there
Singing you to shipwreck
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)
Steer away from these rocks
We'd be a walking disaster
(Don't reach out, don't reach out
Don't reach out, don't reach out)
Doesn't mean it's there
(Someone on your shoulder
Someone on your shoulder)
Just 'cause you feel it
Doesn't mean it's there
(Someone on your shoulder
Someone on your shoulder)
There there!
Lonely, lonely?
To me, to me?
Waiting to happen
Waiting to happen
Alternatively:
America by Simon and Garfunkel
“Kathy, I’m lost”, I said, though I knew she was sleeping,
”I’m empty and aching and I don’t know why”
Counting the cars on the New Jersey Turnpike,
They’ve all come to look for America.
Even more alternatively:
the entirety of I Am A Rock by Simon and Garfunkel
@skywardstargaze ahhh Radiohead 😔

2 Places
Just never know what I'll be feeling today
Happy or sad, yeah, it could go either way
One minute I'll be fine then I don't know how to feel
Don't know what to do, I'm in two places at once
I feel like the moon tryna stay up for the sun
Heart is so confused 'cause it's two places at once, oh
My head's all over the place and I'm stuck on the ground
Just look at the birds, they only know how to fly
Up in the clouds, they never worry like I do
One hand holds onto hope, the other's filled with doubt
Don't know what to do, I'm in two places at once
I feel like the moon tryna stay up for the sun
Heart is so confused 'cause it's two places at once
Are the same things that make me cry
The same things that comfort me are keeping me up at night, oh
I must be goin' numb, maybe it's all because, oh
I'm feelin' everything, I'm feelin' all at once
I'm in between the two (Standing still and on the run)
(Don't know what to do, I'm in) Two places at once
(I feel like the moon) Tryna stay up for the sun, Ooh-ooh
(Heart is so confused 'cause) It's two places (at once)
My heart is two places at once
Two places at once

Queen's bohemian rhapsody "caught in a land slide, no escape from reality."
@versatileLake2802
I feel like this one a lot. Especially 'I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me.' Except I am actually a girl.
@FaithfulPrune9638 queen literally made a song that every person on this planet can relate to

Return of The Mack (these lines living rent free in my head thanks to the latest television commercial for Frito Lay)
You lied to me
All those times I said that I loved you
You lied to me
Yes, I tried, yes I tried
You lied to me
Even though you knew I'd die for you
You lied to me
Yes, I cried, yes I cried
You lied to me
'Cause she said she'd never turn on me
You lied to me
But you did, but you did
You lied to me
All this pain you said I'd never feel
You lied to me
But I do, but I do, do, do
@theriverissinging
See, I'm not a gang banger, but my fave song of all time is Gangsta's Paradise. There's one part of the song that always touches me, and that is 'Why are we so blind to see, that the ones we hurt are you and me?'
