hello.
after discovering that wilbur is an abuser to his now ex-girlfriend, all i have to say to that situation is that im really disappointed at him. the apology that he posted on twitter couldve been handled better instead of it being pathetically written all about him, to which i am also disappointed. and because of this, i will no longer continue showing support to wilbur.
i will keep ycgma up and i want you, the person whos reading this, to understand that, you are still able to vent or rant in the comment section of the video. and what i also want you to understand (and i mean this very lightheartedly) is that you can separate the art from the artist and still enjoy the album as you once used to back then.
as of now, i want you to go and show support to his ex-girlfriend. or just anyone who has dealt with any form of abuse in general. and wilbur, if you are seeing this, i hope you get the help you need and improve as a better person in the future, just please, come back to the internet to show that you ACTUALLY improved and are willing to admit to your mistakes.
As for me, i will continue reading and hearting your comments and trying my best to help as i can. i will put up charities for abuse victims, palestine, ukraine and any other charities that seem helpful soon in the description of the video. i just need to somehow get the hang of it, once i dealt with my own personal issues.
thank you for your time.
- Nikita Neumann
I respect this.
I want to separate the music from the artist, but knowing the lyrics I just will think about what happened all the time
Which is sad because Your Sister Was Right was my comfort song but the lyrics now just feel.. gross, knowing what he did
how do you make an apology about yourself like wtf 😭
thank you so much
It really does suck, one day im talking yo my dad about how much i love lvjy and then the next day i find out he's a terrible person. It really does suck. But im so glad Shelby spoke out against him and brought the situation up. I want to separate art from artist by listening to like reuploads off of other channels so i dont directly support him, but i dont know if that actually works or not. But still i HOPE he genuinely gets better and stops being the way he is, and writes an actual fucking apology to Shelby, she deserved and deserves so much better
The two things I learned from this album
1: it gets better.
2: never go to London.
Yes you will regret going here I want to move away but I’m broke
@@tadington don’t live there so idk
@@tadington just never go to London
@@restive_aura3989 this is so hard. Everyone saying that their city is horrible! i hate my city, they hate their city and what? where's all the good? where to live without any problems? this is so hard.
@@mkrd the moon
You guys rock, I always come back here and read your comments.
I hope you know that I promise it gets better. You'll have a great day maybe next year, maybe next month maybe tomorrow that will spark some energy in you. You'll figure it out and learn how to roll with these punches that life throws.
Until then, I'm here. This album is here and I'll keep making little distractions for you.
Be comfy :)
(⊃。•́‿•̀。)⊃
thx man :)
:)
This is lovely.
When your in a weird depressive state that won’t let you cry but also won’t let you enjoy good things so you just feel numb
I get this on another level
Too real
Numbness is worse than sadness in my opinion as you lose those who are around you because they think that you are ignoring their feelings and emotions but you Just can't comprehend those emotions at the time
i understand you mate.:)
stay strong king, we're all here for ya ❤❤
you know it's getting bad if you find yourself coming back to this album
Ah yes, the seven stages of grief.
1. Depression
2. Depression
3. Depression
4. Depression
5. Depression
6. Depression
7. Depression
Some say there is a 8th stage, it’s depression.
The 9th stage is eating
im pretty sure the 10th stage is listening to this album
I think the 11th stage is denial 🙃
(sorry I'm not that good at coming up with stuff-)
True lol
FYI FOR NEW LISTENERS :
CW /TW :suicide
Your City Gave Me Asthma
"Jubilee Line" is about how much Wilbur hated London and wanted to leave. He said "Since moving there I managed to get this horrid phlegm cough for 2 years straight, doctor’s confirmed it was caused by Pollution, later on I started to exhibit signs of asthma." Which explains why the name of the album is 'Your City Gave Me Asthma'. jubilee line is also about suicide. when he says, “there’s a reason that london puts barriers on the tube line/rails,” he’s referring to the fact that tfl (the people that run the transport) have put up automatic doors on the jubilee line extension to stop people from trying to take their own lives on that line.
"Saline Solution" is about how Wilbur has major health anxiety, which basically means he is always thinking about the possibility that he might be sick, or dying of something that he is unaware of.
"Since I Saw Vienna" is about his traveling tendencies and has seen many places including Vienna. This song represents his tendency to move around a lot. this happened after he broke up with his ex-girlfriend when he was 17 Wilbur dated her for around 2 years and broke up in 2017(when he started Soot House), they visited a lot places.
"Losing Face" is about a woman who left him for another man. He expresses his self-doubt and jealousy caused by it, he “Loses Face” while spiraling over alcohol and self-indulgence in this song, with the song reading as an angry message just for her.
" Your Sister Was Right" is about Wilbur feeling dejected and insecure in himself, and how he isn't a compatible Love Interest for anyone.
" La Jolla" is about a man who doesn’t feel good enough and has distant dreams of leaving to start fresh somewhere different. This could be a metaphor for Wilburs hatred of London and the Self-Doubts that plague his mind.
"I'm Sorry Boris" is about his conflicting thoughts on leaving London, solely due to the fact that if he leaves London, his health would improve but he would also be leaving his friends.
i found this on a wiki page and i think you would be interested in it :)
if there is something not right about it feel free to reply and i will try to correct it
Thanks

# cw/tw suicide.
jubilee line is also about suicide. when he says, “there’s a reason that london puts barriers on the tube line/rails,” he’s referring to the fact that tfl (the people that run the transport) have put up automatic doors on the jubilee line extension to stop people from trying to take their own lives on that line. it’s probably the grimmest song on the album and something a lot of londoners like me can relate to.
and i’m sorry boris is also about boris johnson, the former mayor of london and now prime minister of the uk. he talks about how he neglects/ruins some of the areas of london like when he says “southwark turns into a highway,” which brings light to the fact that boris built a motorway in central london and ruining the lives of people there. another example is, “let them burn down the towers before helping you,” which is referring to the grenfell tower fire, that happened in 2017-2018, and the fact that people who survived still need accommodation.
and i’m just gonna say the line “they’ll make you jump under trains before helping you,” in i’m sorry boris is one of the smartest line since it links back to the first song.
@@funnyusername9072 thanks for adding in the more details it really helps understanding the deep meaning of that song :)
thanks
TYSMMM
well guys, it was fun while it lasted
It was, last run of his music before i stop listening to him
@@alexbell351 thats why I feel like "separate art from the artist" doesn't exactly apply here. So much of his music is steeped in his personal experience, so I can't help but feel disgusted knowing I'm listening to an abuser's thought process.
"All good things must come to an end eventually" :(
@@alexbell351this is what im doing
@@up-set1451 same it just feels gross now, i cant believe i found comfort in his music once
People who say the lyrics were "warning signs" are so dumb. Your Sister Was Right is about feeling guilty about a relationship where you were in the wrong that's always been what it's about, the face that we now have more potential details doesn't change the thing that the song was always about. People who write lyrics like these aren't secret abusers necessarily and it's pretty gross of anyone to decide that these lyrics are damning instead of the actions. If you relate to the lyrics or vibes of these songs you are NOT a bad person they speak to universal experiences with guilt and self loathing
😊❤
Yes I also don't think you can take the lyrics as a warning
Exactly. Self-loathing and guilt is the theme of that song
I saw a tweet basically saying "Wilbur only writes songs about how sad he is, typical for narcissist abusers who only think about their own feelings." I had to take a mental health break.
@@anclamari4096 People really can't say someone's a bad person without throwing in ableism huh? "Narcissistic Abuse" isn't real and you wouldn't say "ADHD abuser" or "anxious abuser" if an abuser had ADHD or anxiety so it makes 0 sense for someone to say "Narcissistic Abuser"

Ty for giving me a way to listen to this music without supporting him ❤
I haven't come here in a while. I come back in this sad day because this album brought me comfort in rough times. It will again. To everyone taking the news of Techno's passing roughly, please take care of yourself. Don't isolate yourself. You are strong.
But sometimes its better to be alone and take some time to understand and heal… weird how some things just catapult us back here
@@Bruhecc mhmm
Thanks, I needed that
It always works dosen't it
we went from minecraft squid song to soothouse to smplive to wilbur soot youtube to professional musician.

"and the universe said I love you because you are love."
thank you technoblade, for the amazing years of content you put out. words cannot describe how much i and others are grateful for the wonderful community you built, that will continue to live on and remember you. we love you.
Because of Shelby I realized my ex abused me in the same way she was. It was actually SA. I wasn't just accusing him of nothing because he was my partner, IT. WAS. SA. i didn't speak up because of him. He used coercion. He mentally and physically abused me.
Thank you for keeping this up. I don't want to support him, I just want the music without supporting an abuser by giving him views, etc.
I hope you can “get past” it, it's a uniquely evil crime and you deserve better
Please remember that you are so strong. Please remember you didnt deserve that. I hope youre able to heal and find peace. 🫶
I can imagine how confused people would be if they only listened to his music and just saw a bunch of Minecraft memes in the comments
i would love to meet them and just hear what they think about him. because i think most people know about his music because they knew about his minecraft stuff first
@@alli3334 person here, found him through the nice guy ballad a while back and have been following his music career since and didn't knew batshit about his minecraft stuff until this year. my impression of him was that he was a really funny and witty guy, funny but conscious about the issues around him
@@alli3334 I KNEW HIS MUSIC FIRST LOL
@@lindsey7544 THATS ACTUALLY SO COOL
@@lindsey7544 how did you find his music if you remember?
Wilbur has the kind of music that you can just listen to while laying on your bed staring at the ceiling and contemplating life.
That's exactly what i am doing rn.
how about the bathroom floor? Is that good enough? lol
dude truee
i recommend wilbur songs and homage for that
OH YES
It's hard to believe that tomorrow will mark 3 years since YCGMA released, I still love this album and I'm definitely in a different time of my life so looking back just makes me so nostalgic, I just feel like crying whenever I hear even 1 song from this album.
Dude this album made me realize I'm trans I get it. It means so much to me. ❤
This album helped me through so much after Techno died. I could never, ever have gotten through it with out Wilbur. This album just sparks nostalgia when ever I hear it and instantly makes me cry. Especially Jubilee Line.
totally not crying rn:)
I’m failing in school. I’m losing everyone around me. I’m not learning any new instruments or languages anymore. Fuck, I’m not even drawing anymore or even playing video games. I’ve lost interest in everything I used to enjoy.
This album is the one string that I have to hang on to. It’s my one distraction from everything. The best feeling is to put my headphones on, put my head down, and listen to this.
Wilbur, thank you for making this.
i know its hard just hang in there
@@tyclone6266thank you, i’m trying 🫶🏻
keep hanging. shit gets hard, especially at the end of the year. let yourself relax and rememeber that you are worth of love just because you exist
I was going through the same stuff a couple of months ago, I've just gotten better so trust me, you will too. Just find some time to get back with the things you loved to do when you can and dont loose hope ❤❤❤❤
@@danamcintyre5288 been there too, and I got out of it, so I'm 100% certain you can too. Hope things get better for you. Lots of love going your way 💞💞💞
I never realised a sleep deprived guy that plays minecraft for a living could be such a comfort
edit: 2 years ago, oh no
How come this have no replies. and also yep a Minecraft block men can sing very good.
same

True
how the fuck do i have two top comments wait what
We found him, the main character.
FACTSSSSSSSS
@Keller Bupp i can hear tubbo saying "I am za messiah..."
I’m so happy we’ve found him
TRUE
nah thats ranboo
I have to say thank you for keeping this video up. I've had so much on my mind with nowhere to say it considering how heated, childish, and frankly scary everybody on twitter and the discord server are acting (death threats being said and what not) but this feels like a relatively safer place to vent. Although I'm incredibly disappointed in Wilbur and will not be supporting him ever again, this album has such an important place in my heart. I want to, leave it behind but I know I can't do that without a lot of time passing so I'm glad I could have someplace to continue listening to it without supporting him profit wise. Please nobody attack me, I know what Wilbur did was terrible I just wanted to say how many memories I have from this album and how it Is (unfortunately) still a comfort to me even with the terrible shit going on.
Don't worry I feel a similar way. I don't know if after the next time I listen to this album I won't be able to do it ever again, if the lyrics will become so tainted with what I'm now hearing about the bts that I just can't do it (cause now quite frankly I'm scared to listen to it for that exact reason), but for now it is still my comfort album, just like yours. And it's been so for such a long time that I probably won't be able to let it go, like literally days ago I talked about what his kmd cover, ycma and miwb mean to me under his newest music channel upload, and that hasn't changed. I don't think you should lose the comfort this brings you because of the scum that he was. I'm currently boosting my own argument in my head by saying that Wilbur himself said that this album belongs to us and not him. Also life isn't just black and white, and in no way am I trying to excuse what happened, but I'm also not going to try to forget all of the comfort and good that Wilbur has brought. At least that's my take on all of this for now, we'll see what the future holds and how all of this turns out.
Yes YCGMA was one of the only things that have brought me so much comfort. It still does, but now it also has a very bitter taste to it
lmao, it feels a bit spiteful to go out of your way to not give them "money" from a view like he r*ped your kids or smth but ydy mate
I left the dsmp /new mcyt fandom almost 3 years ago and yet I still find myself occasionally coming back to Wilbur’s older music
same, i just didn’t listen to it anymore since i wasn’t in the fandom anymore and didn’t care but here i am 🧍♀️
I still listen to it everyday, it's too good.
Same, left the fandom about a couple years ago but Wilbur and Lovejoy's music just goes so hard
3 things this album taught me
1: never ever live in london
2: it does get better but it jsut takes time
3: NEVER LIVE IN LONDON OMG
*NEVER LIVE IN LONDON*
yessir
Me, who is going to move to London 🥲
LMFAOOO BUT FR
@@stupidpissboy awh i’m so sorry! i hope you get out of there asap
I live in London and I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else, I really love it here. It really depends on the person, if London isn’t the right place for you that’s valid, and if it is that’s valid too.
Fun fact: everyone who’s here has listened to this at least 5 times
Oh thats me
Its actually my first time and I am sobbing :)
Well you’ll be listening to it a bunch more! Great album, what’s your favorite?
30 but ok
_at least_
This is ours now. We have claimed it, in the same way the music has healed us. It’s ours, not his.
he said it himself
but whether it's ours or his, it's still about him in all the songs, you can't ignore it
we can relate to it, but it was never about us
I dont think anyone can take this away from us except for ourselves
:( used to be the best comfort album
it's weird to say a random person on the internet can bring you more comfort than anyone you know irl. thanks wilbur, really. love you man.
He really can. We’re like strangers yet when I go back and watch just chatting vods I feel like we have been friends forever and I enjoy myself laughing with him. He really dose make us so happy
Same
ikr especially when he doesnt even know u its rlly cool but weird at the same time i hope he knows how many lives he saved
Yeah, after I lost all of my friends in August 2020 wilbur has only been the person that can make me happy when I have suicidal thoughts and stuff like that. it's so weird that a person I dont know at all has helped me with so much stuff
Yeah, he’s really comforting to me, like his streams and songs. I really appreciate everything he’s done for me even though he doesn’t know me at all.
at the beginning of la jolla he says "Y'know it takes a lot to move me, so if you figure it out tell me" and then in the beginning of I'm sorry boris he says "I've figured out what can move me, its trees hugs planes and sushi" and i don't know why that hurts so much but it does. he is a genius.
Woah I never noticed this, how did I never notice that?
I also noticed he uses phone sounds in them both at the beginning/end. I don't know what is about La Jolla and I'm sorry Boris, but they both make me sob
IVE NEVER NOTICED THIS IVE BEEN LISTENING TO IT BEFORE IT WAS ON SPOTIFY WHAT TY EL BIG BRAINO
he figured it out!
woah wait that's so cool
I’ve come back despite hating wilbur.
I was the biggest fan of him forever, and I never knew it would hurt that much to leave this behind. his music helped me through so much, and it got better when i stopped listening.
thank you wilbur for the depression, and thank you whoever made this so I can listen and not support him.
ever since this album came out it has been a huge comfort for me and i seriously have not been doing well since the whole situation with wilbur. its gotten me through my abusive family drama, depressive eras, even just as a regular playlist to cry to. i am very dissapointed in wilbur and hearing his voice hurts me, but i will never stop coming back to this album.
stay safe everyone, take care.
It’s weird how a guy who role plays in minecraft can give me way more comfort than my own parents. :)
:]
fr tho i don't remember last time when my parents hugged me and this album just feels like a long hug. god i'm so touch starved
@@lostfinn1063 same. whenever my parents walk pass me I always hope they would hug me but they don’t. they just walk away. and like man this album. like cmon. it feels so safe here.
Facts bro
Will has help me with everything man like, when ever I met him I'll give him a card about what he has help me with and stuff :) (( if I'm aloud to do that ))
Battery: 1%
Me: listens to Jubilee Line
Battery: lets cry together.
hi wilbur if you see this comment just want you to know ily
@Zak Marshall ily means I love you
@Zak Marshall i love you*

I'm in pain and in mourning about Techno's passing but I have Wilbur's music comforting me.
It's funny how youtubers whom we never meet personally affects our life in different ways.
So true, like we don’t KNOW them, but we know them, you know?
exactly! even tho i may never meet them, they have changed my life for the better
its already been 8 months wow...

I found YCGMA around three years ago. In those three years it remained a constant anchor to latch onto while navigating the seas of depression, dysphoria, and social anxiety. More recently, Mammalian Sighing Reflex also acted as an anchor of comfort. I don't really cry, but the first time I properly cried in two years was listening to Oh Distant You after my partner and I split up.
Tonight I've removed all of his solo music from my liked music and playlists and intend on not listening to it again.
The sad thing is, I think Wilbur Soot *did* care about mental health. I think he *did* like knowing that people found comfort in his art. But at the same time, he was an emotional and physical abuser to those he loved most. Knowing that fact, the fact that this music is at least in some ways *about* *his* *abuse* , has permanently tainted the lyrics of both albums for me. I can't bring myself to even listen to them one final time.
How do you mess up so badly? How do you build your pedestal so high, only for it to all be a lie? Why?
youre a good person. i am not strong enough to let go of this yet. maybe in the future. i wish you well
Me: Doesn't like songs with curse words
Wilbur: Makes this Masterpiece
Me:
"I'll allow it"

Might wanna check the grammar, I almost read that as you slowly morphing into small tear droplets under a blanket.
Listening to this after Technoblade's death. ♥ Much love and support to Wilbur for his music, which has helped and is helping many people, and so he and everyone else stays strong. Technoblade is amazing, and he will live in our memory.
not that anyone will read this, but i want a safe space to rant:
thank you wilbur soot, for jubilee line, for telling us that the horrors of the world are visible and valid, and that becoming another horror will not save you in the end
thank you for saline solution, for telling us we aren't the only ones on this wide earth who feel like were overbearing or too much, for telling us that we are toxic and messy, and for giving us solace and hope that maybe change is possible
thank you for since i saw vienna, for singing of travel and escape, something i personally dream of and long for, the escape from the world while still wanting to hold on to the people of the past, and i know im not alone in that sentiment
thank you for losing face, for giving us a song to scream when we're thinking of someone we hate and yet still love, or maybe someone we believe thinks that way of us, for a song that radiates anger and yet still carries the promise of love, however broken
thank you for your sister was right, god, thank you for this one. thank you for showing me personally that i hated myself so deeply and didnt even realize it, for bringing the emotions to light so i could face them and wreck them, slowly but surely, thank you for a song i can almost cry to because its always so hard for me to cry
thank you for la jolla, thank you for the beauty in it of separation from the one you love because you know it's time to move on, for the pain it carries but the comfort it will eventually bring
finally, thank you for im sorry boris, for the finale of all these emotions wrapped into one, escape, anger, love, remorse, and hope.
thank you, wilbur soot, in a way that is so much deeper than those two words, for your city gave me asthma. we love this album, we love you, and we are learning to love ourselves.
so, a thousand times, in a thousand ways,
thank you.
*~ Trigger Warning- Su!c!de Attempt ~*
The Jubilee Line song is completely true- I bought a ticket once just so I could throw myself over the edge- The electric buzzing of the railroads made me.... happy, I saw it coming- my impending death. The one thing that stopped me was some business guy who seemed to just be staring at me. He knew what I was thinking almost and just-
kept on staring. Breifcase in hand. The tube was slowly filling up with more and more people who blurred into peach, brown and black colour palettes. As the crowd grew thicker I drew off and just left.
They put barriers around the train lines so that people can't throw themselves over, and when there's a delay because of police issuing it's because someone tried hard enough and succeeded, so if you're ever delayed on the different train lines in England just remember that if it'ss because of police issues just know that someone tried hard enough, harder than I did and will have either been on the cusp of doing it, or have done it.
I hope you're doing okay now and have found peace. I cant imagine what you must have been going through at that time
@@ThisMeHandle I'm not but thank you for the encouragement, it was a... bad place for me. It still is but I'm coping :))
thank you for succesfully making me cry.
I'm so sorry, good luck, I wish you the best, I mean it. Don't die, please don't, people will be sad if you do, like us, so don't kill yourself, just hang in there the best you can, things will get better for you, I freaking promise, just don't kill yourself, I hope you'll get better soon, I really do.
You are worth existence. Im proud of you for not going through with it. I wish you the best.
For the first time in my life I feel like there's no reason for me to be alive.
I don't have suicidal thoughts, I don't really feel sad or depressed, I just feel empty
None of the things I normally enjoy doing seem worth the effort anymore, and I'm just watching time pass by
It's even hard to talk with my friends, right now I feel like the only place I can express my feelings is in this comment
I really don't know what to do with my life, I just feel like I'm stuck in the same old daily routine and nothing ever happens.
I'm not sure why i'm even typing all this, but i guess maybe in a year or so I might be able to find this comment again, and maybe by then everything will be different
hey dude. im really sorry you feel like that- i can relate in some ways. i know it's really hard to stay happy in today's world. just know that no matter what, *someone* out there cares about you and enjoys your company and hopes the best for you. maybe that person is me! some of the best ways i help myself w/ mental stuff is (although it sounds silly) baking cookies. it's something productive, and you can jam to music whilst making them. this may not work for you, but try it! maybe it could help.
anyways, no matter what, just remember that it will be okay eventually. take a day off from school or work. bake some cookies. go on a walk around the block.
How are you now, if I may ask..?
@@thebutterscotchkid2481 its been 2 days lol
Hey dude, a lot of people have been in your spot before. When you get bored in life and is stucked in a loop/routine. Find something new, explore something new, try doing something new outside of your routine. Also I always do this too, typing down my thoughts and hope I will find it in a year or two. It would be a pleasant surprise.
I'm with you, mate. :)
I have this constant feeling that im wasting my teenage years doing nothing and it constantly taunts me bc thses are the supposed best years of my life and it feels like hell, listening to this album is one of the only things i can do without thinking it's a waste of time. I have so much to thank for ycgma.
Same, I feel exactly the same way. I'm glad I'm not alone. The looming fact that I am going to college in a few years terrifies me. I want to enjoy my teenage years as much as I can. All these years feel like they're slipping away, out of touch.
for real.... times ticking and we're just following along. There's not much we can do about it, except listen to these songs, and thats another reason it's so scary. In the end, we'll all have to grow up one day. And that's okay, because as long as there's tomorrow, there's yesterday. And in that yesterday, we can find comfort in our lives today.
The way the whole album starts with "wasting your time" I USED TO LISTEN TO THIS GODDAMN ALBUM ON REPEAT AND I SPENT 4-5 YEARS OF MY LIFE SUPPORTING HIM AND I AM SO DISAPPOINTED. I hope he just makes a good fucking apology for once and we can all forget this. In school I was referred as a "Walking Wilbur Fanpage" due to how much I would yap about him. And after seeing Shelby's stream, it's like my whole world turned upside down, because I would go to school and people who haven't even heard of him would tap me on the shoulder and go like: "Hey... Uhm... It's about Wilbur" I FUCKING KNOW, YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAUNT ME ABOUT IT EVERY TIME YOU SEE ME. (No pun intended) This used to be my COMFORT STREAMER/MUSICIAN, OKAY!? Hearing news like this breaks my heart. So if your reading this... I assume you were here for a reason. If you still find comfort in this album. Trust me. I do too.
His voice is like stepping into a warm bath, it's calming.
I agree. ✨✨

I will pack my stuff and stay in the hospital for two weeks, the doctor said I had Depression and BPD, and I need treatment. Today is my last day on Social media, and I'm spending my time listening to this Album. When I have negative emotions (Sadness, Anger, or even emptiness), Wilbur's voice always helps me cope with reality. It's a shame that I can't listen to this masterpiece for 14 days, but I remember most of the lyrics except I'm Sorry Boris. I think it's okay. I can sing or imagine the instrument in my head. I want to leave a short message here because I want to express my gratitude to Wilbur, even though I know he won't see it. Thank you, Wilbur, you help me when I'm at my worst, and I'm grateful that I know you. Out of thousand streamers out there, I found you, and I can't thank my fate enough for that.
Maybe my life is not that bad. It's hard to believe that things will get better, but with you and your countless attempt to distract me and many fans out there, I think I can give it a try.
Until my hospital discharge day comes, this comment will be here, and I will update it little by little to see if I can recover from all the wounds I received!
hope youre in a better place now!
Hey, I hope you’re okay. I know that we’re just a group of people online, but it can be nice to just talk to people and share your feelings. I’m not a professional, but I do hope you’re getting better, and that you’re in a better place
I hope that you're doing well!!
hoep ur doing good
hope you're doing good mate!!
this album genuinely carried me through 2020-2021 while i was at my absolute lowest, not to mention how i used to be a huge fan ever since i found his channel from soothouse 😭 i can never go back to those old videos without feeling gross
London is a terrible place. Believe me -
It's just a hellhole, everyone's depressed and nobody can escape.
The sad truth is people go to London to seek some flashy life and end up in their small cubic apartments, locked up with no way of getting back out.
if they don't end up in apartment's its the streets or prison. i hated living in london and i did so for 12 years
damn is it really that bad
@@mountbolt8993 i've never lived in london, but i used to take trips there while visiting my grandparents who lived further north. i thought it was so fascinating when i was younger but in recent years i learned that there's nothing special about london besides its despondency. i wasnt able to go 2020, doubt i'll be able to this year, and to be honest im scared to see it after the pandemic.
Have you ever been in Poland? Such a terrible place xD
Well sounds like I belong in London

I don't have necessarily good grades, and still...
But I got bettet recently! Calm holidays really can make a difference, atleast for a moment.
i feel called out by this post
Can we appreciate that all the people who listen to this album, no matter where or who they are, have probably had a dark point in their lives. And, let’s admit, this album has made us feel better. Wilbur really is quite the guy. I must admit he’s amazing.
he must be having the biggest “i made it” moment right now. i hope he knows we all appreciate him so much
@@sienna7383 mhm, he deserves sooo much
Yeah. :)
i honnestly relate to alot of the songs as I'm in this city million of people but i feel like i don't know anyone. and with covid those few people disappeared
yeah :(
This was the first album I've ever cried to, i started learning guitar so i could play one of these songs but now i don't think i will. I loved saline solution, i loved the trumpet and the lyrics, now i just feel bitter and disgusted.
He really fooled us all when so many red flags were right in front of us huh?
Knowing who he is now is upsetting. I really admired him. I love his music, He’s smart with his words. I kind of aspired to be like him. Now i don’t
"My child is completely fine"
Your child is crying on their bedroom floor because they are debating killing themself, and using this album to try to cope instead of talking to you to avoid getting yelled at.
Hey. I feel the same way, except i cant cry on my bedroom floor atm cause im sharing a bedroom with my grandma. I cant talk to any of my family, but you know what, i know who u can talk to if u want (u dont have to🖤). Me. Yea. Im nearly always here, and if im not ill respond asap. If u feel worse, better or something completely different, feel free to come back to me. Just comment on one of my vids and we can talk there (it'll be private i have no views lol).

’Your sister was right’ hurts so deeply more then I can comprehend
yeat it rlly calms me when i have mental breakdown or when i feel alone
especially the very beginning
it does hurt, just so much. i literally started whispering "no she's not, no she's not"
Ikr? The end always gets me. Hits hard
I love your sister was right i always listen to it when im feeling down
In june 2021, my sister passed away. She was just a few months older than Wilbur, and back then I was listening casually to his album, but on july I started to listen a lot to it. Your sister was right breaked me lots of times, I hated myself for not expresing enough my love for my sister and for having been so scared to have said goodbye to her before seeing her for the last time alive. I feel that song like a what if if I hadn't been so stupid or selfish, if I had treated her better, as she deserved, maybe she would have been a little happier in her short life.
And when Wilbur streamed the YCGMA 1 year anniversary I missed it because I was listening to this album thinking about her. I felt bad, however, I instantly watched the replay, only to find that I already almost knew the songs by heart. It was a nice surprise.
I feel a little bit sad now, next month is my 21th birthday and the first without her, but thanks to this album I'm over most of the pain.
And it's just nice and heartwarming to read all the stories on the comments, I hope y'all are doing better now and a big hug to whoever feels like shit rn, know that you're not completely alone and that this little safe space is here to listen to you and, perhaps, help you. You are strong and I'm proud for how far you've come
this makes me cry
♥️ Hope your better now dude
@@aidanprins-ropert9511 yeah, ty :')
i cant, everything is breaking me apart, i just want someone to talk to for once, im never showing everyone else my actual feelings, im masking it. i just need someone to help me.
"I hate to see you leaving" I miss him so much. I want this all to be just a nightmare I can wake up from, but I know that's not possible. Fly high king ❤️🐷
This hits completely different after finding out Wilbur's hell on DSMP is an inescapable train station...
yeah
It hits the same to me but I got so hyped when he said that
true..........
the songs not about an inescapable train station though, yes, he did use that to promote ycgma [mostly jubilee line, and that songs about suicide]
Would be pretty cool if it was canonically confirmed that Jubilee Line and the other songs were written and composed by Wilbur while he was in The Afterlife.
Dad: my child is completely fine
Your child feels happier watching people who have no idea she exists
Your child can be excepted by people who have never met her
Your child feels stressed until these these people go live and then she has to be stressed that you wont make her delete twich again
Your child doesn't feel safe talking to you
Your child feels like she gets manipulated by you
And thats just the boaderling. So no, your child is NOT completely fine
Your child feels more loved by minecraft streamer, whos shes never met and they dont know she exists, than she feels loved by you
i hope you're doing better. 💕
Usually I go on and spread slander towards comments like these, but I just hope you're doing fine
yeah, as hard as i try my mom is never proud, she’s always mad. but when i watch them streaming i feel safe, i feel like i’m enough
I hope you are ok
I came here straight after I watched technoblade’s video , I don’t think I processed his death just yet but my heart feels very heavy.
I was going to hang out with my friends today but I guess I’ll cancel that I don’t feel like getting up from my bed.
Rest In Peace techno I will forever remember you, I’m so grateful for everything you’ve done for us 💔🕊
for the past few days i've been watching wilburs old vods on an unofficial reupload channel, i know it's fuelling my attachment to him, and i know i need to let go. he is a horrible person, hell, he's the scum of the earth. but he used to comfort me so much. i don't even know why i'm listening to all of his music and watching all his old streams, it just makes me so sad. this album in particular helped me through some of my worst battles and it hurts so fucking bad knowing that someone who helped me has hurt others. i'm so glad shelby spoke up though, including everybody else who fell victim to him. it takes a lot to speak up especially against someone with such a large and supportive fanbase. i'm just so disappointed man.
i hope shelby + other victims are able to heal, and i hope wilbur genuinely gets the help he needs, and that the next apology he releases (if any) isn't half-assed like the first one.
"she wrote an album and that's something I couldn't do"
*writes album*
it gets funnier when you realise that losing face was written first
But the first version he said: She spoke italian. But instead he used this line
Parents: "my child is fine!"
Child: listens to a minecraft youtuber while crying because they keep having thoughts about how life is pointless and they are just existing for no reason
this hit me harder than it should have
You do deserve to exist! You should be able to be happy just try to be happy and make others happy to me that’s the reason everyone’s here for enjoying ourselves. And it’s fine and normal to have low points but just try to be cumpfy. Your a great person. If ur feeling down just snuggle up and listen to this album with your favorite snack. Just keep going. I’m here for you. ❤️
( nothing said here was intended to offend you I’m sorry if it has, also sorry for the misspellings I’ve never been good at spelling)
Have a good day here’s a cupcake :) 🧁
I hope you are doing well
Hmmmmmm aw yes. My *depression*
You are absolutely right :/
When I was in quarantine, I had a lot of mental health issues due to the lack of schedule and the isolation that came with being locked up. I came across the MCYT community in July ish of 2020 and having that as a distraction really helped, especially Wilbur’s content and this album. To this day I don’t really keep up with the community anymore but this album has always been a huge part of me and it is so disappointing and sad to see what he did to Shelby. I hope everyone affected by this situation finds their solace, especially Shelby. Much love 🩵
Anyone still here? It’s been awhile since I have. I’ll never forget the feeling of discovering this playlist over a year ago already. At the time, I never even thought I’d end up as depressed as I am, but I guess that’s how life is. Currently at my worst, and decided to come back for some nostalgia. Not a fan of the dsmp or mcyts anymore, but if there is one person I actually enjoyed watching content outside of Minecraft, its Wilbur. This album was the only thing keeping me alive until I branched out for new ways to cope.
For anyone listening, if you’re going though any tough times: stay strong loves. I know these are empty words coming from a s*cid4l person, but at one point, things started getting better. Why am I still like this? Well, that’s on me. I know you guys can make it out of this feeling. It’ll take time, but just know I’m so proud of you
I love you, random internet stranger

hi
Huge TW suicide
I think the worst/sad part about the whole album is while writing julibee line wilbur saw a man literally commit suicide while writing the song.
Well, more like this.
He was on the train and a man jumped in front of the train and everybody had to evacuate and nobody else was phased by it but him and he was so traumatized by it he decided to write about all the problems in london
In julibee line he was talking about how rather then fixing the problem they just put rails around the train stations in hopes people wouldn't jump.
And in through out the whole album he was talking about how the pollution was shit and gave him asthma.
The whole album was pretty sad but it's kind of hard to listen to julibee line without imagining the whole situation in my head over and over again knowing that wilbur actually had to experience that himself.
I feel as if my whole heart breaks, imagining the scene over and over again in my head when listening to this line
"There's a reason
London puts barriers on the rails
There's a reason
London puts barriers on the tube line
There's a reason
They fail"
I feel as if my gut twists up through out the whole album knowing the stuff he had to experience in that mental state and it makes perfect sense how he would want to forget about that album.
DUDE I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING... JUBILEE LINE ALWAYS MAKES ME CRY BUT ITS MY FAVORITE SONG THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE ALBUM
I knew the meaning but I didn't know he actually saw it oh my gosh, hurts to think about. btw when did he say that ?
@@journey7999 Same, i learned how to play it on my uke-
I also think that the person who jumps over the rails to do the notalives motivations r higher than the ines trying to stop it
ALL LYRICS!
{Jubilee Line 0:00}
Wasting your time
You're wasting mine
I hate to see you leaving
A fate worse than dying
Your city gave me asthma
So that's why I'm fucking leaving
And your water gave me cancer
And the pavement hurt my feelings
Shout at the wall
'Cause the walls don't fucking love you
Shout at the wall
'Cause the walls don't fucking love you
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the tube line
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the rails
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the tube line
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the rails
There's a reason
That London puts barriers on the tube line
Theres a reason they fail.
{Saline Solution 3:06}
One, two, three and four
I think this time I'm dying
I’m not melodramatic
I'm just pragmatic beyond any
Reasoning for thinking I've got
Fuckin’ rabies, or something
I think this time I'm dying
I think this time I'm dying
I think I've lost my mind
Blurring the fact and the fictions
While simultaneously fixing
Myself up with a girl
Named Panadol
Bite the tablet, elixir
Disintegrate, mouth's a mixer
I think I've lost my mind
I think I've lost my mind
If I could just break one more night
Maybe I could wake up and feel alright
My optimistically set alarm clock time
Serves only to mock me with flashing lights
I think I've made my choice
I’m a deceased playing victim
Slip the face, slip the victory
I think I’ve made my choice
Sit secluded in hatred
Void the plans friends are making
I think I've found my voice
I’m a leech sucking blood bags
Taste defeat, it's a sandbag
Saline solution
Saline solution to all your
Saline solution to all your
Saline solution to all your problems
{Since I Saw Vienna 6:24 }
The cute bomber jacket you've had since sixth form
Adorned with patches of places you’ve been
Is nothing on my khaki coat I got
From a roadside when I was sixteen
My boots are from airports
My backpack's from friends
I'm not a man of substance and so I’ll pretend
To be a wanderer, wandering
Leaving ascetic belongings in hostels and restaurant bins
-"cut that bit out"-
The roads are my home as horizon's my target
If I keep on moving, never lose sight of it
Treating my memory of you like a fire, let it
Burn out, don't fight it and try to move on
It's been sixty weeks since I saw Vienna
A bandage and a wide smile slapped across my face
I'll pick up my hiking boots when I am ready
And I'll put down my roots when I'm dead
The distance is futile
Come on, don't be hasty
You’ll get that feeling deep inside your bones
I’ll be gone then when you must be alone
{ Losing Face 8:51 }
First and foremost
Oh, let it be said, my dear
I was gonna wait for you
So this is not an act of spite
It's a visceral coming-to
She wrote an album
And that’s something that I can’t do
But what I can do is spit the truth
And it all leads back to you
Secondly, I know I haven't written much
You know the way I can be
Tonight, I'm fucking drunk
So it's all gonna be about me
Take a seat, pull up a chair
Give me one beat to fill my glass
I've lost a piece of me in you
But you've lost all your past
Is he better than me?
Has he seen more to this life?
Can he smoke more?
Can he fuck more?
Are you good enough to be his wife?
Can he break me?
Can he break you?
Oh, I don’t know what I’m to do
Yes, I don’t know what I’ll fuckin' do
I've seen our café, I've clocked our plans
Oh, what could have been
If you didn’t go and fall in love
And ruin everything
I've seen him
I've been him
I've felt the same way
But now I break against the dirt
Along with our cafés
Is he better than me?
Has he seen more to this life?
Can he smoke more?
Can he fuck more?
Are you good enough to be his wife?
Can he break me?
Can he break you?
Well, I don’t know what I’m to do
Yes, I don’t know what I’ll fuckin' do
I've lost all meaning
I've lost my sense of hope
I've seen him going out with you
I've seen what he can do
So touch him
And break me
Strip naked
Embrace him
Lose faith in
His pace, his
Stamina and grace
I’m losing face
I’m losing face
I’m losing
Ooh-ooh, mmm-mmm
I don't care, I want you here
As long as you're happy, I don't care
{ Your Sister Was Right 12:52 }
I thought I couldn't love anymore
Turns out I can't
Not for the same reasons as before
I use everyone I ever meet
I can't find the perfect match
Abused as I learned
While I ostracized the ones who loved me back
On the path of least resistance
I find myself salting the earth
Every time that I miss you
I feel the way you hurt
And I don't deserve you
You deserve the world
Though it feels like we were built from the same dirt
Ah-ah-ah
Oh, I hate to say it but your sister was right
Don't trust English boys with far too much free time
I hate to say it but your sister was right
I'm nothing but a problem, leave you crying overnight
And I hate to say it but your sister was right
I can't focus on the future, only my short sight
I hate to say it but your sister was right
I'm a wanker, complete wanker
A fucking waste of time
{ La Jolla 15:25 }
You know it takes a lot to move me
So if you figure it out, tell me
I trace figures on your smile lines
Work a formula to cure me?
And I'm lonely
There I said it
Nine million people
I always seem to add them up
I could go away
I could pack my things and be gone before you wake
You know I've tried hard to love me too
It always seems to fall in through
Maybe one day I'll live in La Jolla
Drinking cocktails out over the water
My own personal sunset
To give each day its own diploma
And you know it's funny
Amid my backseat taxi jaunts
I'm trying to ignore the skyline
So I don't figure out where you
{I'm Sorry Boris 19:27 }
I figured out what can move me
It's trains and hugs, planes and sushi
And I'm sorry, but Boris, I'm leaving
I'm not good for anyone here
We reached the end of a decade
Greenwich morphs to an arcade
Suffolk turns into a highway
Up to Hamlet's a tax break
New Islington, a headache
And Richmond's still shit
I can't believe that I'm leaving
I can't believe that I'm leaving
I don't think I want to leave you
I don't think I want to leave you here alone
But they'll knock down the pubs before helping you
And burn down your towers before helping you
They'll charge for your healthcare before helping you
They'll make you jump under trains before helping you
And even though I'm finished, I'm not quite done with it
No matter how far I run south, I'm always there
My lovers, my colleagues, my best friends and enemies
I don't think I want to leave you
{Goodnight. An unreleased song, not featured here. It can be found at: ua-cam.com/video/UnSSrzR1Wbk/v-deo.html }
You talk about habits
Boy, I can name a few
But I don't bloody understand it
Is it chemical reactions or trained into?
When you die
When it’s time
When you die
Who'll hold your hand into that goodnight?
I hope you're alright
I hope you’re alright
I hope you're alright
I hope you're alright
I hope you're alright

Last year, on June 8th, I tried to take my own life. Its been exactly A year. This album has helped me through so much. I probably wouldn't be here if it weren't for Wilbur's music. I probably sound stupid but, I will be forever grateful for his music for helping me through these past years. Whenever I feel sad I always listen this and it makes me feel better. Wilbur will probably never see this but I still want to say thank you for creating this, its helped so many people. :)
glad you're still here
Just remember if you ever get those feelings or thoughts again, people care about you. Immediately attempt to confide in a family member or a friend that can make you feel better, it helps :)
Happy to have you here dude :)

I always used to come back to this album whenever I was feeling down, it was a great way for me to allow myself to cry my feelings out. It was a big support, but I'll never be able to listen to it the same way. It was nice while it lasted.
everyone take care and be safe.
Fck to the abuser, support the victim.
i had a best friend for 5 years, and he killed himself on October 11, 2021. he introduced me to this album and we both fell in love with it. we hated our lives so our plan was basically just live like Since i saw Vienna. we where gonna run away and live how the lyrics say until we die and have no contact with anyone else accept us. and when he killed himself i couldn’t listen to this album for over a year. then finally i but the bullet and listened to it again and just balled. This album helped me heal and without this, my friend wouldn’t have made it as far as he did. i owe so much to Wilbur and his music. i look up to him more than anyone i’ve ever idolized.
And Wilbur if you ever end up reading this one day, i just want to say thank you. for everything you do. you’ve helped me so much more than u could ever understand.

wilbur i fucking love this album
i first listened to this album in 2020, it was a small light for a struggling 15 year old trans kid who didnt know what they wanted to be. it knows how my relationship with my dad feels, it knows my pain inside and out and it knows how much i want to run away from it all. i swapped gcse's and ended up taking music over computer science and i played since i saw vienna for my gcse music performance in 2022. i passed.
today, as the world falls into another year, i have an offer to go to my dream university in brighton to study music, ive put down the deposit for a student house and im going to be a musician. ive been releasing for a while now and the numbers arent great but if a cult following on this album is enough for you then slow going is good enough for me.
you released a new album 8 hours ago, and i know your music is gonna continue to stand as milestones in my life.

I have to rant about this, becouse none of my friends would listen.
Will is such an amazingly complex person. Not only is he good a writing poetry, scripts and songs, the man is insanely emotionally intelligent, which I thought was fairly visible from his acting on the DreSMP and mainstream music (aka the Wilbur Soot music), but holy fuck was I surprised when I listened to this album. Ima be honest with ya'll I didn't have the mental energy to listen to it in one go. It's one thing to hear about someone's alarmingly depressive thinking patterns, when you don't know them outside of their music, but it's a whole different thing when it's someone who unknowingly helped you when all the hope was gone. And it makes sense, people aren't just these walking positive emotions, that would be boring, they have dimention, but some people... You just don't really think about how they're perfectly human, just like you, y'know. Other thing is that these songs were written quite some time ago (the oldest of them I could find was one year ago), yet there is a possibility, which if i'm gonne be honest I think is true, that all of this was written 'under our nose', if I can phrase it that way. And the fact that Wilbur was capable of hiding all of these emotions from his audience is both jawdropping and concerning, becouse nobody who's not traumatized can act this good. What I'm trying to say is that I have never wanted to ask someone if they're okay more in my life before. Also I should know, first hand, that the best songs are written from emotions so strong you can't hold them in anymore, and that's why I'm so fucking terrified for this man's sanity, to the point where I'm shaking as I'm writing this. The fact that he's also crying while recording this only adds up to that, these are wounds that are still not fully healed. Heavens know how close to an another snap this man is. And the way that I'm worried about a guy I've never met on a deeply personal level, probably bigger than I've ever cared bout anyone in my entire life is fucking alarming. Everything is alarming. This is a walking red flag. But the thing about all this, that bothers me the most, is that I, we, have no idea how many layers are underneath this. For what I know there could be another layer of even more conflicted emotions below that, that are just too strong to think about them, let alone convert them into art. We don't know. And now you begin to wonder, how much on an ongoing war with themselves is everyone else, both people from your life and outside of it. Be nice to people, couse you never know how much shit are they going through at the moment.
I needed to get that out of my system. I'm sorry you had to read that.
Also looking up the lyrics and seeing that they are all credited to William Gold, not Wilbur Soot just hits different.
I wholeheartedly agree with pretty much everything you've just said, especially considering how he said on stream that "the lyrics for my actual music just comes to me, not much thought about it". He has also said that most of the songs in this album are about a girl who he knew in college and fell "madly in love" with (his words not mine) who he never actually got the chance to properly speak to about this and when he was trying to, found out she had a boyfriend. I'd say Losing face is a great example of this coming through as it mentions the future and whatnot with the whole bakery idea and "what could have been".
This album is such a banger, music wise and emotionally.
Also yeah, William gold hits different, but it hits right.
Half of his music’s greatness comes from the lyrics and he is amazing at writing songs
Yeah, same! I feel like in most of Wilbur's videos, he puts some kind of poetic element to it, (Ex: Milo from the random block challenge, LADDER MAN from the lava rising video, togetherness from the water rising one.), making each video unique and so memorable. It's like each video is a story - and that's why in the "Solider Poet King" meme, I'll always put him in the 'Poet' spot. I'm not hating on Dream, but I just don't get sometimes why people enjoy watching his manhunts so much - I'll admit I used to really like Dream's videos, but they seem so repetitive and boring now to me. (Keep in mind, this is all my *opinion*, take this all with a grain of salt!
I think this is the best comment I have read
@@johsh__ lmao what do you mean "never got the chance to properly speak to about this" they dated for two years
we're here for the same reason. It's okay. It'll be okay. I hope.
This album helped me through so much when i had nobody
Especially saline solution was my favorite it helped me so much feel less alone with my health anxiety
I hate wilbur for what he did to shelby it's absolutely vile but i pray that he understands what he did is wrong and he becomes a better person sending hugs to everyone
hey, you're back here. again. its what, the 7th time youve come here this week? and this weeks only begun. or its the end of the week, i dont know your situation. is everything alright? have you drank some water? have you eaten something healthy? you better have, because if not that could lead to you getting ill, and being sick is never good. have you even tried to go to sleep tonight? after you read this, put your damn phone/ipad/computer down and rest. you have made it past every hard day in your life, so why stop now? love ya!
😢
thank you, i really needed this
Thank you, I definitely needed someone to say this :)
aha i come here every night
Thank you and make sure you take care of yourself too!
"My child is completely fine"
Your child finds the most comfort in streamers.
Your child feels scared of going downstairs because shes worried youre going to mood swing and lash out.
Your child has an irrational fear of talking in public.
Your child doesn't open up about their feelings anymore because she knows you wont listen.
Your child feels safer behind a screen than in front of you.
Your child has lost most of her motivation.
Your child doesn't experience the same amount of happiness as they did before.
Your child feels like the least favorite child.
Your child feels left in the dark.
Your child is getting manipulated by not only you but her older sister as well.
Your child is tired of everyone.
Your child is treated better by people who doesn't know of their existence than you.
Your child trusts people online more than you.
Your child is tired of you taking no accountability and playing victim.
Open your eyes. Your child is not completely fine.
I hope you get better
Can relate to every single thing you just said :( I wish somebody cared tho lmao
she- lol
The fact that I hardcore relate to this is concerning (like everything about that it’s like you just described me in a nutshell 👀)
That was deep, but I’m sort of realizing, hey, it’s not always okay sometimes, and maybe we get tired from our own family and past life, and that’s alright, we just need to breath and figure out a way to live, for Wilbur. Hope your doing okay. Stay safe :)
hello to everyone here for the same reason as me, it will get better. You have a right to grieve, you're not being selfish, after all grief is just love with no place to go
i finaly came back to this album, i shunned any music made by wilbur after i left the dsmp fandom but i recently remembered how important some of the songs from this album were to me so i came back to give it a listen and im not disappointed, this was a huge nostalgia trip for me and im happy i had this album to lean on through the years, thank you wilbur for this crucial part of my life.
Yeah, I did the same for a while. Came back and remembered how much I used to listen to this in the past, he's honestly really talented.
bro i was the same way. ive started getting back into all of it a little but its usually just to remind myself of being a little more stable
I’m always so scared. Scared of the day that the SMP will end, the day Tommy turns 18, or 21, the day Dream and George stop talking, the day I hear a short clip of one of Wilbur’s songs and remember the discs. I’m scared of the day Phil dies, the day Dream shows his face, the day Quackity stops making diss tracks, the day the war is over.
I’m scared of growing up.
That's perfectly normal, growing up is scary as hell, especially for those of us who are filled with doubts, feeling unprepared for the future, having learned the world can bite. But I think most of us are stronger and more capable than we think we are. You might discover you will be at peace with all of those things, good luck stranger :)
I wholeheartedly agree, maybe not the DSMP stuff in particular but the fact I don't know what I'm doing with my life. No aspirations or ambitions. I just feel a bit average most the time. I'm leaving my school for a different one in September and leaving all my friends. Some of them cried over it and while I feel really sad knowing I might stop talking to them I just feel 'meh' in a more melancholic way. I even tried to cry just to let it all out once or twice but failed. I'm unprepared for my future. I don't feel happy or sad about it, just melancholic. And I know I'll just end up with an average paying office job. I don't feel happy or sad about it, just melancholic. I know, that I will lose contact with some of my best friends of now in the future. I don't feel happy or sad about it, just melancholic. I know I'll be in debt for years. I don't feel happy or sad about it, just melancholic. And believe you me, this isn't coming from a place of acceptance. It's fear and uncertainty. I'm not the type of person to "make the most of life" as I suppose a teenager should, I'm a good kid who is scared of breaking the rules. I'm very atheist and anti-paranormal so I have no faith to fall back on. To be honest my faith in humanity has gone too. Racism, sexism, homophobia, America everything like that makes me more numb to the world. I wish we could all just get along, hate for the point of it makes me so disappointed (like how the DSMP gets cancelled every other day or how MrBeast will get cancelled for not giving enough away.) Wooooooo
i agree. Im scared of growing up too. But one thing i think i'm more scared of, is change. When the dream smp finally ends. And all the other things you said. It'll change everything. Growing up, change, everything, is so damn scary. Life is just scary. im afraid of what im gonna do with my life, if i go down the wrong path, etc.
@@lizztehpurplewolf9354 The fear of change is very scary, especially being the oldest in my year but having no plans for later on in life. So I know that one day everything will change.
And speaking of the ‘wrong path,’ my mum keeps telling me I’ll become a drug addict because I missed a homework. I know for a fact it isn’t true (I’m so scared of them, even laughing gas at the dentist) but it still looms over me that I’m the ‘bad child’ and that I’ll end up a disappointment. Doesn’t help that I have 2 siblings who seem to have it all worked out.
I am too. So let’s enjoy the moments while we can..
TW// Suicide
For those who don't know Jubilee line was made because Wilbur was mad at the suicide rates and pollution and when you go back and hear the lyrics one more time you understand tbh the song sounded less "dark" to me at first until I was reading the lyrics I'm pretty sure he explained the meaning in full detail in a vid somewhere if your interested
@Videoms Oh my god! That gives a whole new meaning! I cant imagine seeing that.
Yea and this is coming from someone who has been through that dark side I feel the song so much cus it shows how I feel and I am glad I found Wilbur
@Videoms oh my god.
can I have the link to the video?
Anyone got the link plz?
Listening to this again after a long while and fuck it hurts. Jubilee line was special to me for how it meant to my life. Seeing people say "you should've seen this coming." No one saw this coming and it sucks that this is where we're at right now. I remember Wilbur saying that this wasn't his life anymore and that he's gotten better and by god if it hadn't given me hope to get better as well seeing Wilbur happy with where he was was special to me. Now i just don't know anymore. I can't listen to this album anymore like it comforted me in the dead of the night it's just suffocating now
Hello. I’m back. I think we’re all here for the same reason right now. I just hope everyone is taking care of themselves right now, even though it’s tough. Make sure to eat and drink water. I love you.
And techno, man this fucking hurts. I don’t even know what to say, or what to do. I’ve been listening to the album over and over, it’s providing the comfort I had every night last year when I was deep into the community. Techno was one of the ones to save me, and he will continue to save me. Legends never die.
I love him forever and more, thank you.
So can we all agree that everyone in this comment section deserves to go to a group therapy session together?
Pls. We can all go to therapy together. I’ve been needing someone who wants to go with me for a while
@@v-v4498
I do cry laugh so hard my stomach aches for a whole day
Me who goes to therapy but it doesn’t help so I cope with this music: 👁👄👁
@@akira18723
I mean- we can just have a boba party if you want or?
@@greytowelblackbag I- LMFAO YES
“She wrote an album. That’s something I can’t do”
*says in a album*
“an”
“an”
“an”
"ant"
Wait but really I never thought I’d ever get this amount of likes-
‘Your sister was right’ REALLY feels weird now
A song about guilt over hurting someone is still a song about guilt over hurting someone even if you know who the writer hurt and how
This album got me thru some of the toughest times of my life. I can’t believe he did that. I don’t even know if I can listen to his music anymore. Can’t believe he used to bring me comfort ..
why didn’t anyone tell me living was this hard wtf
Ikr
People tell you life is fun but then you get to your teens and it all dawns on you
It really sucks
@@marko7654 it went downhill since my childhood though
@@ayukurniasarihamzah3458 Yeah that can happen too. It's a bit rarer for sure but it can happen.
I would say personally my life started spiraling downhill at about age 13 when I just moved away from all my friends. I still went to the same school cuz I wasnt that far away but hanging out with people became much harder than before. So basically no one wanted to hang out with me in the summer anyways do I was just at home the whole time.
Ikr Like life is supposed to be fun but it really isnt-
Ikr like it all started getting bad when I went into middle school and lost almost all my friends because they turned to bullies and I’m about to go to high school and most of my friends are going to a different school and it’s all probably gonna get worse
My parents: my child is fine!
your child trusts strangers on the internet more than you. Your child was given more comfort by their friend than you. Your child wants to forgive you but can't because you keep blaming everything on them.
Your child is tired.
Edit: I'm doing slightly better now, thanks for all your lovely comments :D❤️
I have no friends so like
I hope your doing well
I used to find comfort in my friends, I don't think so anymore. I do have one friend that I really treasure though, my other 'friend' (she's supposed to be my best friend but she changed after meeting another friend and I don't know, she's not the same person anymore) doesn't like her. I don't care. My most precious friend will always be my most treasured friend, and the reason I'm still living is because of her, and the dream smp.
no one cares, stop living in self pity
@@stijnkorll167 if you don’t care, than that’s fine. But please don’t tell people that no one cares about them. That sort of shit can be way more damaging than you think.
pov: its some point in the middle of the night, and you're listening to this as the world fades into white noise.
Look at me, coming back to this album again. It just felt like ‘one of those days.’ Today wasn’t good nor bad, just existing y’know? Well if anyone does see this, have a good day, you can do it, and I believe in you
