    This song randomly played at the local supermarket yesterday. Itd been years since I had heard it and I dug this song so when I got home I had to find it and give it another spin.....

      This was totally my song in high school, back in 2011, when genders were still somewhat binary and being just good friends with those of the opposite sex was a bit frowned upon, by both sexes. I hated the cliques, and this song was a seriously good outlet for grief

      It sounds so feel good but once you understand all the lyrics you realized how brilliantly written & sad it actually is. Suddenly you don't feel like dancing anymore

      The lyrics are open to your point of view. Life is more complicated that just happy or sad.
      I look at it as a song that there is good to be found even in the mundane! Pinch me! Because life is good, and I’m not dreaming….

I see it in the complete opposite fashion I see it from a point of I've been there done that and now I'm doing so much better you have to pinch me because I can't believe it's all real!!!!!! There are two sides to every story I try to also find the third..... hahaha LOL
      Peace Love Light Health and Happiness to you my friend!!

    The entire second verse about running through the sprinkler in gym shorts, then changing into drier clothes and sleeping away the afternoon is like the perfect encapsulation of my teenage years. Random bouts of frivolity punctuated by long periods of sleeping.

    • @scorpionwins6378

      Reminds me of the crazy summer vacations I used to have with my grade school buds. Nothing but swimming in the backyard and long bike rides at the park, playing videogames and laughing hysterically, not a single care in the world. Back then I believed that those days would last forever, and at the time it felt that way...then suddenly you wake up one strange morning and realize that it had all become a distant memory, and you're no longer in touch with the ones who made your childhood so special. Then you start sobbing uncontrollably while trying to grasp the way life is now, but instead of living in the present and trying to maintain some degree of joy you're stuck in the past wishing more than anything to live those days over again.
      And that's when depression comes by to pay a little visit. Only it isn't temporary.

    "Take your time cause the way I rhyme's gonna make you smile", sorry man, but I think I'm the one person in these comments who's frowning. I don't know what it is, but I REALLY dislike the lyricism of this song; the lyrics either sound so dumb that a 2yr old could write them, or the rhyme scheme just does not flow right. I mean, "there's a restaurant where hungry people like to eat"? Uh, duh. It's a restaurant. Hungry people like to eat at all restaurants. Idk, the lyrics just sound so simple and stupid it really rubs me the wrong way 🥴
