Songs that hit Too Close To Home

[Druid]

Great news I found a new way to cryptically overshare
I've been collecting a playlist of songs with lyrics I may as well have written, and thought it might be a fun thread idea!

Post however many come to mind - one offs, general vibes, descriptions of certain situations or relationships.. I like the idea of people being able to be like "oh man I've been there" without anyone actually saying anything. Feel free to caption things or to just drop them in raw

Here are some that resonate - will add a lil relationship playlist soon too, gotta narrow it down a bit lol

I wouldn't say this song fully hits close to home, but lord if it doesn' hit something. Basically everything starting with the line "And feel badly for upsetting things"
[edit] Actually the beginning resonates, too. Really it's just the specifics about the relationship with the mother.



This is the song that immediately comes to mind, but I'll post if I think of others.

@(you need an account to see links) omg that’s one that’s absolutely also on my playlist

@(you need an account to see links) it's such a good fucking song. It's honestly impossible to pick a favorite line. Like idk the whole thing is so resonating but also sort of a battle cry of hope, if that makes sense?

Ok jumping way in - this playlist is entitled The Epic Highs and Lows of a Will-They-Won’t-They Best Friend

how on the nose is it that I couldn’t pick just one Tegan & Sara song

[Lyrichord]

This song comes to mind from a previous season of life.

[TsUNaMy WaVe]

I found this cover when I was on the lowest of all lows. It hit... way too close to home back then. And it still slightly triggers me today too...

[Pidgey]

Lots of relatable lyrics in this song....

Maybe I'll add more later.



^ this song is a tear jerker. I heard of his music after he passed.
And how much he was loved and the way he lived his life. #goals

[Rachy Queen]

I am in love with this song!

Ah thanks for posting guys! Hearing some great new music, and can definitely feel some headspaces
@(you need an account to see links) yeah I think that description’s perfect - like “everything is hard but it WILL get better so help me god” which….. very real
@(you need an account to see links) ooh this is cool, I’m not much of an anime person so I don’t know really know Tokyo Ghoul, but what I do know is my best friend has a tattoo from it lol
@(you need an account to see links) some of the lines in that first one are like a kick in the teeth, oof
