    BLACK DOG lyrics
    I’d lick the grief right off your lips
    You do your eyes like Robert Smith
    Sometimes it seems like you won’t survive this
    And honestly it’s terrifying
    Let’s go to the corner store
    And buy some fruit
    I would do anything to get you out your room
    Just take your medicine and eat some food
    I would do anything to get you out your room
    It’s so cruel
    What your mind can do for no reason
    I’d take a jump off the fire escape
    To make the black dog go away
    Alice I know that you are trying
    And that’s what makes it terrifying
    Let’s go to the corner store
    And buy some fruit
    I would do anything to get you out your room
    Just take your medicine and eat some food
    I would do anything to get you out your room
    It’s so cruel
    What your mind can do for no reason
    It’s so cruel
    What your mind can do for no reason

    The knot. The pit. The part of the tunnel where it stops and nothing passes through. The bent part of my throat. The sudden stop. Captured, transformed, transmitted and now I'm here staring at Arlo show me her face/fate that I cannot help but see as my own.

    My sister said that this song reminds her of me; that she cries to it daily, remembering what I’ve gone/ am going through. I imagine this song as adult me singing to young me- when the black dog started to show itself. “At least i know that you’re trying, but that’s what makes it terrifying”- those lyrics resonate so hard. Im trying and that’s what’s bad. My mind is mean man. I hope my sister can forgive me for the pain I’ve caused.

    Greg James' post on Instagram brought me here. Beautiful song. I've been struggling with Anxiety and (I think) mild depression for best part of two years now and I wish there were more songs like this, as it really does help. On the bright side, my anxiety and depression has gotten a lot better recently (minus the situation with Covid at the moment, that's deff not helping) - but for anyone struggling, know that it can and will get better for you.

    i was at ross when i heard this amazing song.
    i was bored out of my mind looking at the clothes when
    the line
    " i would do anything to get you out your room "
    caught my attention
    i wanted to ask the employee what was the song name
    but i was too much of a coward to do so.
    so i had that line memorized in my head untill we left
    and ive found it.
    it makes me so happy that this song is published.
    it really comforts me alot when im having panic attacks,,
    i want wait till Arlo will get more big, shes so talented and awesome. :)
