"i worry about you okay ! why do you even have to hear me say it!?" "Because when i bring my brother back from the edge to you , i want you to remember all the feelings you had when he was gone"
'Alone' and 'Lonely' are two very diffrent words and feelings. You can be in a room full of friends and companions, have your lovers arm wrapped around you tight, but still feel loneliness. Loneliness is not an emotion that is controlled by whether you're in your room alone or at a party that has so many people that some are on the roof. "I love being alone. But when I see two friend laughing together, or a pair of lovers holding hands, I realise. I don't love being lonely"
Cindy Clevenger Aww.. I'm so sorry.. I wish your dad was there with you.. and be there for you.. I hate people seeing sad.. ;c I hope you have a great day! ;)
this is my favorite song because not only is it clean so i can sing it to myself in public, but i feel like this song just summed up my life with depression. im alone and i want to escape to a place where im okay, but i never am. no one every listens to me when i reach out and call for help and i feel i am on the edge of "keep going!" and "time to give up". its hard for people to understand, and honestly, i dont think people want to. see, when you have a physical injury, like you broke your arm, people will come running to you to sign your cast and tell you to feel better, but if you have a mental injury, like depression, everyone wants to stay away. no one understands what its like to feel hopeless and to hate yourself more and more, every time you look in that mirror. this song captures what i have been feeling for the last 10 years of my life. im 16 now and im no closer to recovery then i was when i was 9. i have 3 friends and 2 of them are internet friends. my real world friend and one of my internet friends just had a fight and i played this during the fight. i feel a sense of calmness and a plea for help every time i play this song. its reassuring to know there are other people out there who are going through the same thing i am. i didnt know that until i listened to this song. im glad i found it and im glad i can feel so close to a song and feel like it understands me so well.
I know how you feel. I know that's a cliché line people use all the time, but I really and honestly do. I've recovered and won my fight with depression. It's been 2 years now. I still get down sometimes, but then again, doesn't everyone? Anyway, I have to completely agree with your statement about feeling like this song captures exactly what you're feeling. Everything you said about this song is 100% accurate, because two years ago, I felt the same exact way. I didn't know anyone could feel the same way I did until I discovered Jason Walker, and he's been a favorite of mine since. His songs speak to me. All I have to say now is that it does it get better. I do know what you're going through, I do get what it's like to go through this, and you're not alone. And things will change. Keep holding on. You have a lot going for you, I can tell. You're worth it. You'll win this battle with depression, and you'll be stronger than ever.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I haven't been through major depression myself, but I have been through a lot of other issues and a website that always helps me is jw.org. When I read your comment, I decided that I had to share this with you, so I went and found some articles on it about depression that I hope can help you to feel better. www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/family/teenagers/ask/stop-being-so-sad/ www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/bible-help-depressed/ It's a completely Bible-based website that helps answer people's questions straight from the bible, and uses bible principles to help people with overcoming problems.
Whitney Jacobs I have struggled with anxiety for most of my life, but it came to a head two years ago. I was a sophomore in high school, and my friend was shot and killed. I was a wreck for weeks, and no one came to support me. Soon after, another friend choked almost to death right in front of me, while all I could do was call the ambulance and watch. Less than a month later, a previous teacher of mine was murdered in the neighborhood I used to live in, and a week later, I sat in lockdown with my classmates during the aftermath of the Sandy Hook shooting. I broke. I started having panic attacks. I'd wake up at midnight and wouldn't be able to calm down enough to sleep until 4 in the morning. I'd stay up, scared to death, sobbing alone in my basement. And through it all, none of my friends reached out to support me. I know how you feel. It sucks. It really, really sucks. I'm so sorry that you have to struggle with something similar. It isn't easy and it isn't fun, and some days, it just seems like there is no light in the world. Nothing worth living for... But I promise you that people understand and people want you to feel better. People care. I care. You'll get through this. Hang in there.
Whitney Jacobs I know what you're going through. And I know how lonely, confusing and terrifying it is. I always read about it and wondered what it must be like. When I became depressed I stopped eating, stopped talking, stopped doing anything at all. I slept my days away, locked myself in my room. Tried to reach out to my friends, who are amazing but don't understand what it's like. So they couldn't really help. I never got any professional help, though it's been going on for years now. I've had thoughts I never thought I would have, I feel like my life isn't worth living anymore really. I don't see a future for myself. I'm 17 right now, just have a year of high school left. I always smile when I'm at school, but I feel like I don't fit in. I can't talk to anyone, not really. I'm not interested in schoolwork or gossip or gushing about boys like most of my girl classmates. I'm stuck and I don't know where to go anymore. But when I read the comments and yours as well I realized I'm not the only one, and that in a way helped. So thank you :)
This song is helping me a lot. A few years ago my brother killed himself, and just a few months ago my mom's heart failed. I fell into a pit of depression after my brother's death, then became greater when my mother died. I feel like I can't be heard, ot that no one cares.
+123camomile™ I'm the kind of person that you will end up hating after about ten minutes of being around me. Personally, I don't blame people for hating me.
+Aurore Leunra nobody wants to be my friends after they meet After about an hour they lose interest in me and leave me alone. Besides, it's best if people stay away from me. I'm not good for anybody and the people where I live have no problem telling me so.
I've read all the comments and, believe me, it all gets better. I went (and still am going through) depression, all you have to do is think of how much the people around you love you. How much they want you to be there. To be higher than you've ever been, you have to be the lowest you've ever been. That's just the way it is. But, trust me when I say, don't give up. Keep going. I hope this helps someone.
None of my friends get me, I feel like I have to pretend that I'm happy every day and nobody knows, not even my family. I haven't found the right person to tell that I feel different, an outcast, like I don't belong. Like sometimes I just want to be alone and no matter how many times I tell that to my friends, they never leave me alone and they always assume that if I fake 'smile', I'm fine. They always pretend they know me but they really don't, no one does except me.
I understand your struggle. I share a similar story. It's funny how life works, isn't it? We're all lost souls lost in time in a desperate attempt to find where we fit. Unfortunately, no one will know who you are 100%. Everybody has a chapter they don't read outloud. It's why I've learned to relish in the diversity of myself.
Its almost been more than 8 years since the song came out but I still listen to it when I feel down. This is one of the songs I have shared many moments with to get through tough times. No matter how old I get, this song will always have a special place in me. Thank You Jason Walker for this ❤
This song makes me cry everytime the lyrics are in point.. I feel lonely I feel like a failure and all I want is a friend who can understand and tell me than I am a lot stronger than the person I set myself out to be.. I just wish one day I find that someone or i find it me to be that strong girl :'(
Jesus said, "Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
This is why I love music. When you can't find the right words or you struggle to use your voice, music is there to describe how you feel. I don't like it when people talk me to stay strong because i cant keep it up anymore. I know they try to help but when people ask if I am OK or tell me to cheer up it makes me feel worse. I have lost the one I love and I tried so hard to keep him. He tells me he doesn't want me or love me anymore and it feels like I am walking around with an I n wound and I'm lonely even when I'm in a room full of people. Music knows how to describe how you feel, no matter what mood you are in.
Chill out and stop being so dependent on a dude. I'm a guy too and I can stand to say that you're hooked on the wrong person. Stop chasing him and find someone who can appreciate you.
All these years. All of my attempts to mend my dad and I's relationship. His apathy towards each one and just me in general makes me feel like every lyric in this song. With all the shit he's put me through, I still just want my dad, but he doesn't want me.
This is the most gorgeous song I have ever heard. I have moved 8 times before the age of 13 including overseas. I used to laugh freely and carelessly, not understanding how amazing that feeling is. My feelings now are all forced. I haven't had friends in 2 years, and now the friends I do have all have suicidal thoughts and are counting on me to hold them together and find the light of day again.... *_but how can I when I'm falling apart myself and I can't see any light in the darkness?_*
I began listening to this song when it first came out and i instantly connected with every word... the funny part is that its been years and it is still my favorite song. This song is just a piece of absolute artwork.
Me: singing in my bedroom. Knock. Knock. little sis: what you doing? me:working little sis: no you are singing Me: like I said, I am working. Music is LIFE!
This song brings back so many memories to last/two years ago. I read this song in front of my English class for poetry music week and surprisingly nobody knew this song and assumed that I wrote it myself.
Found many songs that I can relate to the majority of the lyrics but this is the first song I can say I can fully relate to. It hurts so much and it's impossible to escape anymore...
I use to listen to this song when I was younger with no thoughts of meaning or the lyrics, just a beautiful song to listen to. Now that I am older, this song brings tears in my eyes because of the overwhelming loneliness I've been feeling for the past few years. You see, I'm just a girl there for a good time. The one you call when you want to have fun or laugh with or smile. But once things get a little too hard for me and it feels like my life is falling apart there is no one there. I'm there for everyone else but no one bothers to ask how am I doing. I thought I was strong for that. That I don't need anyone else to help me but the older I get and another wave of hardship and turmoil hit, I realize that can't keep doing this alone, I am actually more weak than I put out there. For once when I am sinking underwater, I don't want to be the one kicking and fighting against the waves to get to the surface. I want for once someone to throw me a lifeline or pull me out of the water. I've been fighting on my own for so long.
You said it so perfectly. I am still young, and it is difficult to hear that it is only going to get harder. I love you ♡ Keep being strong. I'm here if you would like to talk.
Its a weird feeling coming back to this song after so long. I used to listen to it a lot a year or so ago and I really related with it because times for me back then were.. rough, to put it simply. Yet, here I am, a little over a year later, and while everything's not perfect, it certainly is MUCH better. So all of you listening to this now, relating with it, crying to it, and dealing with whatever you're dealing with at the moment, just know that it's not the end. It's not gonna hurt forever. Pain, sadness, loneliness, they're all just like any other emotion; they come and go, it's all in how you deal with it. So don't give up, don't call it quits and shut the book. Things don't stay horrible forever, so stay strong my friends. It'll get better.
+Aidan McGinn I would call a friend someone who's there for you, doesn't judge you for how you look/act! But there ain't many people who are true friends most of them are fake and will judge you behind you're back, just watch with you you're calling a friend
I know the lyrics are "I don't want to be an island, I just want to feel alive" but the first time I heard this song I thought the first verse said "I don't want to be alive". The real lyrics are great, but somehow the way I misheard it is almost more poignant.
This makes me want to cry. I can relate to this entire song. I'm in high school(or at least I think so, my country is this curriculum where instead of first year it's grade 7 up until grade 12) and like my past grades I don't mingle much. Then this cool guy came and we became friends. But, people were making gay jokes about us so he stopped talking to me to avoid the gay jokes. He really got mad at them and he really shouts loud when he's mad (no shit). After some time, our ESP teacher (teacher in values not being a psychic) talk to him about it and he stopped being mad at them for those stuff. You think that after this he's start talking to me again, right? Well, no. He STILL wouldn't talk to me. Hell, he's being friends with the people who bullied him AND my crush. I remain quiet none of the less and have some good friends. I'm not sure why he still won't talk to me, I mean, we're both English speaker (our country doesn't speak English that much, just so you know) and I have a hard time finding people with my interest. I still consider him as my friend, my first true friend in my entire class. I miss my old classmates really. At least there they like me (well except one but I don't like him back neither 'cause he's a douche) and might even trust me. Hell, most of my classmates don't even trust me, and my friend,who I kept talking about, and like my other seat mates, don't trust me to check their work, CHECK THEIR WORK. I still got my entire life ahead of me, so maybe I'll find my next true friend. I don't know yet, but I hope I do.
Although you may go through rough times always look to the light at the end of the dark cave. After all there's always a light in the darkness you just have to turn on the light ☺️😊 just a little more to help you through the week
I feel your pain I have been in the same position and it is not fun I can relate to this song too I have no friends I'm always the screw up and everything bad that happens is all my fault and I can be your friend well I'm 13 to be honest but people can say what they want don't listen to them I bet you are a very good person I bet you are very cool too
When I was in my deep stages of depression, this song was my backbone. It described my feelings better than I ever could. I would listen to it and just lay on my bed and cry. Even now, hearing this song makes me tear up.
I'm clinically depressed and 15.. It's so hard.. I'm used to having no friends. It doesn't bother me.. Even if I do have, they don't care or I don't like to hang out much which eventually grow us apart. No one understands me...
I miss my dog so much! She was my best friend and helped me though so much. I suffer from severe depression and anxiety and the one comfort next to God is gone :'(
John Egbert / Roxy Lalonde not only that, but all of us losing our family... losing the people we love, losing our fight that we should have won, but in the end we did win... because we finally get to see each other again, i get to see dave/ alpha bro.... you get to see jane/ your nanna.... roxy gets to see her mom/ rose..... jade gets to see her grandfather/ jake... although you may not be able to see your dad again.... i guess it could still work out..... only if.....
Vampire diaries is the show that u possibly couldn't get over with .. I mean that show has something in it that drives crazy about it..everything feels so real ..the characters feels real .!! I mean possibly couldn't get over with that show !!
Jasmine Pradier You aren't fat. You have fat. Many people have extra fat. My aunt told me that fat actually helps your brain transmit signals to parts of your body. I'm not saying that us is good to be chubby, but if you feel uncomfortable with your body it probably shouldn't be because of someone else.
Memories of this song... This guy that was my first love we lasted 3 years in a great unforgettable relationship... We broke up 8 months ago cuz we were fighting all the time nd the distance.. but i feel that the reason wasn't strong to break up so i couldn't move on but I'm happy he did and he's with this new girl :) 💔
I used to feel that I was always a problem in a friendship, but now that I look over them it was never me it was just a toxic relationship.I promise to you when you find the right friend you will never feel neglected or alone because they will always be there with you😊
I got my best friend......when all my other Friends just left me alone......I was sad when they left but now I'm so happy......I got the person who can do anything for me🙃🙃
It's been 4 years, since I first heard this song. My best friend showed it to me. Then she left. I was listening to it ever since. Then yet another friend left me. Now I'm 6 months after a break up and my only friend is on a trip to another continent. And I'm here, just wondering, when will I stop relating to this song?
Like a fool I pretend i am alright But it's never enough Is the only friend i have Just my echo My shadow I'm screaming my name When i close my eyes I know not like he sings it but who is perfekt. He has so lovely songs
“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Matthew 11: 28-29 ✝️🕊
i have feel this way for a very long time in my life, with all the problems coming my way one after another, not giving me a break even just for a second, people that don't know me saying they're here for me but in reality they didin't know what i was going through nor what it felt like to go through all thoses stuff and not having time to take a break, "catch my breath", some might know what i mean. Going through hard stuff and having people saying they're here for you but they're not there when you need them. i totally can relate to that song, i've been screaming at the top of my lungs for so long, my voice is breaking and sometimes i feel like its gone..
I didn't hear this song for years,this night it appeared on my recommended.. and I missed listening to this song.. I used to listen to it hn I was sad and feeling alone..and cried myself to sleep.. thinking about those moments it makes me really sad..
Do you ever feel alone? Like you’re invisible and ignored? When nobody understands you, and those who do, even just a little, are too far to reach? This is how I’ve felt for days. Weeks. Months even. I’ve always been the outcast, the one they leave first. The one they befriend on pity. I’m that one friend, that one person who puts others’ needs before my own. At first, they appreciate me, but eventually, they throw me under the bus. It’s not depression. Trust me, I’d know. It’s more loneliness than anything else. The result of people, both friends and family, leaving you. And the ones that stick around will never actually understand. I’m that one person. That one person ignored by most. I’m that one person that “those girls” talk about when I’m not around. The one they all judge. I don’t consider myself ugly. Weird? Yes, but in a good way. Apparently, others don’t think that way. You don’t know what I’ve been through, how I’ve been feeling and how I feel now. You don’t know how many important and amazing people have walked away, out of my life, and how much it hurts. You make think I’m alright, but looks can be deceiving, can’t they? In reality, I’m falling apart, too fast to be put back together. I’m fading and nobody knows, nobody cares. To be honest, with all this pain and stress, I don’t even know who I am anymore. Everything just seems to tear me apart, like paper. I just feel like I’ve lost so much that there isn’t much more I could possibly lose. I feel like I’ve lost near everything. My happiness, my friends, my patience (which I don’t know if I even had to begin with), my interests. Every day, I watch more of my life fade and slip away. I’m thankful for what I do have, but it’s hard to be truly happy when the things that bring you joy walk away, or disappear without any notice or warning. Being lonely sucks. When you have nobody to talk to that actually understands. I have friends, but most of them judge. The ones that do care, or are even willing to listen, are too far away. And I don’t know if I’ll ever reach them. This is for anyone. Everyone. Mainly for the people who know. Those who know what it’s like to be alone. But it’s also for those who don’t know. Those that never have and probably never will face this problem. Those who have everything they could ask for. Why? Why is this also for those people? Because they are often the ones who judge us most. They’re the ones who nag on us for expressing how we feel. And what you don’t understand about this is that sometimes, it’s what we need the most. To talk with someone. To find someone that knows and understands. And sometimes, that’s all we need. We just need to find ONE person that understands you. Because of those people, the ones who don’t understand, the ones who judge, our days suck. Because you’re too busy judging instead of getting to know us and what we’re experiencing. You’re too busy mocking us or judging us instead of giving us the one simple thing we need most: comfort, or love. Or just someone to talk to. Someone to trust. Because of you judgers, I lose myself a little, more and more each day. I lose myself to the kind of people who block you out just because you’re the new kid, or you’re not as rich or as popular as everyone else. I’m here to speak for those who can’t. Those people, including me that don’t ever know what to say, or know but don’t find the right place or time to say it. Now at least you know why there are those certain people that refuse to work in groups, or never raise their hands, or always sit in the back part of the classroom, alone and excluded. Now you know. People are like that because they’ve lost something. They’ve lost themselves, a loved one, a friend, a lover, or someone else. We are like this because of the people who don’t care, those who don’t know what we’re going through and how much it hurts. I’ve never been understood. I know I’m not truly alone, but it feels that way. And the few things that bring me peace, are gone, or never around much. I hate that when I find something that makes me happy, like a type of music or video game, I’m judged because of it, for reason I guess I’ll never understand. I don’t know what else to say. I feel like I’ve made a point. I hope, with this, I’ve given a voice to those who don’t know what to say, or just don’t know how to say it. I hope I’ve changed the mindset of those people who are guilty of judging. Because for those that understand, you know. You know how it feels and what kind of pain people might be experiencing. And for those that judge, you don’t realize how much it affects us and how deep it has dragged us down. I just hope this allows people to realize that sometimes, we just need someone to talk to…
Jon Last Thank You so much you just said my everyday life..I don't even know how to express myself, I just want to give you a big long hug..cause I've been crying secretly😞😞😭😭 I felt pain everyday..
Same here! I deal with pain every single day and I am so happy now! I feel like I have a voice to express what I feel! Thank you so much for taking your time to express those who don't know how to express what they are feeling on there own. This is amazing and I feel like it derserves for likes!
I have never had this problem, and I know I'm a little late to respond to this, but even though we're strangers, I support you. I've found that even support from someone you don't know can make a difference. I hope my moral support is enough to help
You are the world to someone. You may not know it, but you are. If you're not (or you don't feel like you are), then reach out to someone and be what THEY need. You'll find purpose in that. And you may find a friend. Please keep trying. Don't give up. There IS a light at the end of the tunnel. There IS an end to the valley of weeping. There IS! You are PASSING THROUGH.
i lost my dog two days before christmas, it would have been his first christmas with us, he was a dog we found, starving and helpless. he was the nicest thing you can imagine, he had bright brown eyes and a bright soul that if you were feeling down about anything, you see him at the door walking in the house made you forget all about it, he was my sisters best friend, but we left to go to my dads for christmas and i got a call from my mom saying he got hit and was hit so hard that his collar flew off of him, then we came home to an empty home of despair, pity, and depression, then me and my sisters all walked outside and saw a pile of gravel and a hedge of flowers, and there laid the one thing that caused happiness in a home of mess.
So you still come back to this song after all these years, probably because it makes you feel understood. You still hope everything will be okay, even when you feel like you've been in the same bus since like forever. You are surrounded by people and yet you still feel alone. You give your all and they still leave. You want to be happy but sadness is more of your game. If you feel like that , just know that you are not alone, I mean i seem to understand exactly how you are feeling, because i feel it too. I would listen to you, because i understand how it feels not having someone to talk to you, I would never leave you, because i know how it feels to be left behind, I would be there for you, Dont give up, you got this.
It will be alright. You can get through this. I listened to this song in 2011, when this video was created. Here I am, it's 2019, almost 2020. I am still here, still alive. You can survive. You can get there.
It's sad. most songs now a days have no meaning (*7 rings*) and they get popular but the ones who have meanings and are beautiful get no where. what has gone wrong with modern day music?
This song reminds me of my friend who committed suicide last year... she was my first friend... and I miss her so much... I'm so grateful for my other friends, but sometimes I feel like i'm just a burden on them...
Hello, hello Anybody out there? Cause I don't hear a sound Alone, alone I don't really know where the world is but I miss it now I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name Like a fool at the top of my lungs Sometimes when I close my eyes I pretend I'm alright But it's never enough Cause my echo, echo Is the only voice coming back Shadow, shadow Is the only friend that I have Listen, listen I would take a whisper if that's all you had to give But it isn't, is it? You could come and save me and try to chase the crazy right out of my head I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name Like a fool at the top of my lungs Sometimes when I close my eyes I pretend I'm alright But it's never enough Cause my echo, echo Is the only voice coming back Shadow, shadow Is the only friend that I have I don't wanna be an island I just wanna feel alive and Get to see your face again I don't wanna be an island I just wanna feel alive and Get to see your face again But 'til then Just my echo, my shadow You're my only friend and... I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name Like a fool at the top of my lungs Sometimes when I close my eyes I pretend I'm alright But it's never enough Cause my echo, echo Oh my shadow, shadow Hello, hello Anybody out there?
As much as I hate crying, I needed this. My question is, how many times is my heart supposed to be broken before the universe decided that it has been enough pain for me?
Hits hard when I have no friends and all these issues piling up. So I try to act defensive to hide the fact that I’m lonely as hell, I can’t make friends cause of anxiety, I feel fucked up and hopeless because I feel ugly and I can’t even talk to anyone online, and I end each day feeling empty and confused as to why. My past even if it was only 6 years ago hurts, thinking about when I had friends and could talk to them, when I was happy and the magic was there. Now it just feels, bland. I don’t even know how it started to get bad, I can’t think these days. I can’t even talk to my dad or brother anymore, my friends have either moved and I have no way of talking to them ever again, or left with the group of girls who actually have a chance at succeeding in life. I don’t blame them for leaving, I’m not meant to be around anyone I guess... I’m sorry for ranting, I don’t need fake pity, I just wanted to get it off my chest.
maybe we are alone because we can do better without someone else, maybe others hold us back, iv been alone for 19 years... so since i was born, my life is pretty great, but is lonely and have no one to share it with, we attract our ideals, and if we lose others overtime constantly and painfully then they cant be our ideals, so hang int there guys, find yourself before you find someone else, that's what i do, i dont do much as to getting a girl because i dont like the way this generation is going, no one has anything unique about them, all i see are clones made f makeup that only want 1 of two things, but either way i aint getting what i want here, i'm gonna go america, expand my horizon, you all should to, well not to america specifically but you see what i mean, the world is waiting for you to explore! i thought at one point my life had nothing good in store, so i was going to join the military, then i found my calling, carpentry, absolutely love it, and you know what, i'm bloody happy with the way life is going, and i cant wait to find out whats coming my way, you all need to find your calling, go out, explore new options to pursue, dont sit at home depressing yourself listening to this stuff, sure i love this music too but its not who i am and its not who you are, we can only relate in some way, but in the end of it all, YOU ARE all YOUR meant to be... YOU, so go and find yourself!!!! (if you need something of inspiration, try: owl city shooting star) ;) good luck guys, not that you need it :)
Can someone tell me how I am supposed to feel when the universe allows u to meet a girl who is just perfect , so so perfect. And u get to talk to her , listen to her , love her , touch her and one day u are told that u won't get to be with her for the rest of Ur life..... I've cried so much I feel dead inside.
some of us have friends but still feel alone

I have lots of friends but why do I still feel lonely sometimes?
Flowey The Flower true...
I feel the same....
I don't have allot of friends, i just know allot of people
'Alone' and 'Lonely' are two very diffrent words and feelings. You can be in a room full of friends and companions, have your lovers arm wrapped around you tight, but still feel loneliness. Loneliness is not an emotion that is controlled by whether you're in your room alone or at a party that has so many people that some are on the roof. "I love being alone. But when I see two friend laughing together, or a pair of lovers holding hands, I realise. I don't love being lonely"
MCplayer 2016 I think the same
I'm tired of crying.. Everyday...
u poor thing get well love you big kiss
awwwww hear to make you fell better----------------------🐕🐈🐇🍫🍬🍭🍪🍹🌷🌹🌸🍀🌈❄⚾🏈🐎💐

I Cry almost everyday I miss my dad...
Cindy Clevenger Aww.. I'm so sorry.. I wish your dad was there with you.. and be there for you.. I hate people seeing sad.. ;c I hope you have a great day! ;)
this is my favorite song because not only is it clean so i can sing it to myself in public, but i feel like this song just summed up my life with depression. im alone and i want to escape to a place where im okay, but i never am. no one every listens to me when i reach out and call for help and i feel i am on the edge of "keep going!" and "time to give up". its hard for people to understand, and honestly, i dont think people want to. see, when you have a physical injury, like you broke your arm, people will come running to you to sign your cast and tell you to feel better, but if you have a mental injury, like depression, everyone wants to stay away. no one understands what its like to feel hopeless and to hate yourself more and more, every time you look in that mirror. this song captures what i have been feeling for the last 10 years of my life. im 16 now and im no closer to recovery then i was when i was 9. i have 3 friends and 2 of them are internet friends. my real world friend and one of my internet friends just had a fight and i played this during the fight. i feel a sense of calmness and a plea for help every time i play this song. its reassuring to know there are other people out there who are going through the same thing i am. i didnt know that until i listened to this song. im glad i found it and im glad i can feel so close to a song and feel like it understands me so well.
I know how you feel. I know that's a cliché line people use all the time, but I really and honestly do. I've recovered and won my fight with depression. It's been 2 years now. I still get down sometimes, but then again, doesn't everyone? Anyway, I have to completely agree with your statement about feeling like this song captures exactly what you're feeling. Everything you said about this song is 100% accurate, because two years ago, I felt the same exact way. I didn't know anyone could feel the same way I did until I discovered Jason Walker, and he's been a favorite of mine since. His songs speak to me. All I have to say now is that it does it get better. I do know what you're going through, I do get what it's like to go through this, and you're not alone. And things will change. Keep holding on. You have a lot going for you, I can tell. You're worth it. You'll win this battle with depression, and you'll be stronger than ever.
I'm so sorry to hear that. I haven't been through major depression myself, but I have been through a lot of other issues and a website that always helps me is jw.org. When I read your comment, I decided that I had to share this with you, so I went and found some articles on it about depression that I hope can help you to feel better.

Whitney Jacobs I have struggled with anxiety for most of my life, but it came to a head two years ago. I was a sophomore in high school, and my friend was shot and killed. I was a wreck for weeks, and no one came to support me. Soon after, another friend choked almost to death right in front of me, while all I could do was call the ambulance and watch. Less than a month later, a previous teacher of mine was murdered in the neighborhood I used to live in, and a week later, I sat in lockdown with my classmates during the aftermath of the Sandy Hook shooting.
I broke. I started having panic attacks. I'd wake up at midnight and wouldn't be able to calm down enough to sleep until 4 in the morning. I'd stay up, scared to death, sobbing alone in my basement. And through it all, none of my friends reached out to support me.
I know how you feel. It sucks. It really, really sucks. I'm so sorry that you have to struggle with something similar. It isn't easy and it isn't fun, and some days, it just seems like there is no light in the world. Nothing worth living for...
But I promise you that people understand and people want you to feel better. People care. I care. You'll get through this. Hang in there.
Breezyfeather I'm so sorry to hear that :'(
Whitney Jacobs I know what you're going through. And I know how lonely, confusing and terrifying it is. I always read about it and wondered what it must be like. When I became depressed I stopped eating, stopped talking, stopped doing anything at all. I slept my days away, locked myself in my room. Tried to reach out to my friends, who are amazing but don't understand what it's like. So they couldn't really help. I never got any professional help, though it's been going on for years now. I've had thoughts I never thought I would have, I feel like my life isn't worth living anymore really. I don't see a future for myself. I'm 17 right now, just have a year of high school left. I always smile when I'm at school, but I feel like I don't fit in. I can't talk to anyone, not really. I'm not interested in schoolwork or gossip or gushing about boys like most of my girl classmates. I'm stuck and I don't know where to go anymore. But when I read the comments and yours as well I realized I'm not the only one, and that in a way helped. So thank you :)
This song is helping me a lot. A few years ago my brother killed himself, and just a few months ago my mom's heart failed. I fell into a pit of depression after my brother's death, then became greater when my mother died. I feel like I can't be heard, ot that no one cares.
+xValdez Random heard what?
MANGLEbangle Mb i care
+Wolf Gamer thank you. dear god, I'm in tears rn. that means a lot to me. thank you so much
MANGLEbangle Mb its alright and I'm here for you
+Wolf Gamer thank you
I am the type of friend that everyone replaces after a while :,(
I can relate to this song so much :c.
me too
yeah
+123camomile™ I'm the kind of person that you will end up hating after about ten minutes of being around me. Personally, I don't blame people for hating me.
+Simon Hunter We should be friend then. I feel the same.
+Aurore Leunra nobody wants to be my friends after they meet After about an hour they lose interest in me and leave me alone. Besides, it's best if people stay away from me. I'm not good for anybody and the people where I live have no problem telling me so.
if you read this you are PERFECT to me =)
thank you Captain :'(
✔️
Haruma アディー no problem
love you :( ...
illa West who?
I've read all the comments and, believe me, it all gets better. I went (and still am going through) depression, all you have to do is think of how much the people around you love you. How much they want you to be there. To be higher than you've ever been, you have to be the lowest you've ever been. That's just the way it is. But, trust me when I say, don't give up. Keep going. I hope this helps someone.
people don't really care Emily.
Avianna Knight your right know one cares
Alright, that's fine. My goal was to help, not be a burden. So sorry for not being good enough that you feel the need to say that noone cares.
Emily don't be like this hon. thanks for at least trying
Then who exactly live with?
None of my friends get me, I feel like I have to pretend that I'm happy every day and nobody knows, not even my family. I haven't found the right person to tell that I feel different, an outcast, like I don't belong. Like sometimes I just want to be alone and no matter how many times I tell that to my friends, they never leave me alone and they always assume that if I fake 'smile', I'm fine. They always pretend they know me but they really don't, no one does except me.
Man, it's a hard situation to be in. But why are they your friends if they don't accept you as you are?
I understand your struggle. I share a similar story. It's funny how life works, isn't it? We're all lost souls lost in time in a desperate attempt to find where we fit. Unfortunately, no one will know who you are 100%. Everybody has a chapter they don't read outloud. It's why I've learned to relish in the diversity of myself.
we're all here in this world to support you, stay positive
always the stranger is better than ppl u know, that's what I learned in the hard way
+Ayee Mm You got my support right here
+Arkis Hugo Yapas :))
I always support my friends but sometimes it feels like I have to hide everything while they pour all of their feelings out...
the same as me 😦😦
same as me
It's good to know that I'm not the only one who feels this way....
You're not alone
Same
when someone ignores you in a group chat
xD happens all the time
+Emily McNair HAHAHAHA
hahahahaha
+Emily McNair Yass lol
This comment made my day
I almost cry when I hear this song. It's so beautiful!!! I love it! ;)
I've hidden my feelings so long I can't remember what they feel like or how to show them
Cindy Martinez same here....
yeah , me too 4 years ago i turned off my emotions . and now i don't know, it's like i'm confused of everything .
i feel you, havent cried in years...
Cindy Martinez ..same....
Cindy Martinez same
“Sometimes when I close my ayes, I pretend I`m alright” I feel this way but, I can hide it :)
same
Nahomy Zúniga me too
same :(:
yes same here
Nahomy Zúniga so can I just not when I’m alone... there are like 15 cuts on both of my arms
Jason walker is perfect for depression problems and to describe every moment what your feeling.
Its almost been more than 8 years since the song came out but I still listen to it when I feel down. This is one of the songs I have shared many moments with to get through tough times.
No matter how old I get, this song will always have a special place in me.
Thank You Jason Walker for this ❤
Such a lonely song and yet its beautiful :')
such a lonely song yet its beautiful 🥺🥺
This song makes me cry everytime the lyrics are in point.. I feel lonely I feel like a failure and all I want is a friend who can understand and tell me than I am a lot stronger than the person I set myself out to be.. I just wish one day I find that someone or i find it me to be that strong girl :'(
Please, stay Strong
Stay strong.. It will get better
Stay strong ! I don't know you but i am here for you if you wanna talk !
you are stronger than the most of the peoples out there. I belive in you stay strong and fight and one day there will be a rainbow in your life.
I've been through this. I always were alone but it will get better! If I can do it, you can do it! Remember; you're never alone
Jesus said, "Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
Matthew 11:28-30
Thank you so much for putting this in here! People need to see it.
This is why I love music. When you can't find the right words or you struggle to use your voice, music is there to describe how you feel.
I don't like it when people talk me to stay strong because i cant keep it up anymore. I know they try to help but when people ask if I am OK or tell me to cheer up it makes me feel worse. I have lost the one I love and I tried so hard to keep him. He tells me he doesn't want me or love me anymore and it feels like I am walking around with an I n wound and I'm lonely even when I'm in a room full of people.
Music knows how to describe how you feel, no matter what mood you are in.
I found this quote that is really true: Music is what feelings sound like 😊 really is
Preach.....which is why instead of trying to tell my friends/ crush my problems/ feelings, I tell them to listen to certain songs.
Chill out and stop being so dependent on a dude. I'm a guy too and I can stand to say that you're hooked on the wrong person. Stop chasing him and find someone who can appreciate you.
If you are reading this while crying of something don't be sad ... We care for you .. you are not alone god bless you ❤️
the lyrics...
described me so well
All these years. All of my attempts to mend my dad and I's relationship. His apathy towards each one and just me in general makes me feel like every lyric in this song. With all the shit he's put me through, I still just want my dad, but he doesn't want me.
Stay strong
Please stay strong sweetie' it will get better.
Stay strong , ik it hurts but it'll get better i promise
If u wanna talk, im here
It's hard, isn't it? but if you feel you have hit botton, there's only one way, and its up. If you have not, then... don't wait till you hit bottom...
This song hurts so much omg
My shadow is the only friend that I have
but even your shadow goes away when it gets dark.. =(
Maud Elfrink
your shadow doesn't go away, it covers you from the dark. :/ but then it would just get more dark...so..
Alison Biersack , mine too
same
People find comfort in the dark because it never leaves u
This is the most gorgeous song I have ever heard. I have moved 8 times before the age of 13 including overseas. I used to laugh freely and carelessly, not understanding how amazing that feeling is. My feelings now are all forced. I haven't had friends in 2 years, and now the friends I do have all have suicidal thoughts and are counting on me to hold them together and find the light of day again....
*_but how can I when I'm falling apart myself and I can't see any light in the darkness?_*
:(
How many of you guys who are empathizing with this song still in high school? Just curious...
ur comment made me laugh. I'd upvote it, but I'm on my phone.
not in high school but in 6th grade 😉
well high school is a major turning points for the youth of today.
I'm in grade nine.
Im at Grade 10
You can trust only one person.
This is you. Only you can look a way out for yourself.
I second this, you never know when people are gonna screw you over
YUP.
I began listening to this song when it first came out and i instantly connected with every word... the funny part is that its been years and it is still my favorite song.
This song is just a piece of absolute artwork.
This is my favorite song!!!!
Mine too :D
I started to listen to this 2 years ago... still here. :(
Me: singing in my bedroom.
Knock. Knock.
little sis: what you doing?
me:working
little sis: no you are singing
Me: like I said, I am working.
Music is LIFE!
Agreed
+Anjali S Yess
truth spoken
Yeah im agree with u
amen
One of the for songs that can bring me to tears. So beautiful.
This song brings back so many memories to last/two years ago. I read this song in front of my English class for poetry music week and surprisingly nobody knew this song and assumed that I wrote it myself.
Found many songs that I can relate to the majority of the lyrics but this is the first song I can say I can fully relate to. It hurts so much and it's impossible to escape anymore...
When your fridge cheats on you
im so sorry
Fayona Thompson I'll be okay, thank you
😓 ...
everyone else's comments are so depressing and then yours is just... You are amazing 😂
blue c: Yeah
I use to listen to this song when I was younger with no thoughts of meaning or the lyrics, just a beautiful song to listen to. Now that I am older, this song brings tears in my eyes because of the overwhelming loneliness I've been feeling for the past few years.
You see, I'm just a girl there for a good time. The one you call when you want to have fun or laugh with or smile. But once things get a little too hard for me and it feels like my life is falling apart there is no one there. I'm there for everyone else but no one bothers to ask how am I doing. I thought I was strong for that. That I don't need anyone else to help me but the older I get and another wave of hardship and turmoil hit, I realize that can't keep doing this alone, I am actually more weak than I put out there. For once when I am sinking underwater, I don't want to be the one kicking and fighting against the waves to get to the surface. I want for once someone to throw me a lifeline or pull me out of the water. I've been fighting on my own for so long.
You said it so perfectly. I am still young, and it is difficult to hear that it is only going to get harder. I love you ♡
Keep being strong. I'm here if you would like to talk.
the vampires daires
the actual reason im here!! i actually did a dance to this song!
😍💜
Miss it 😭
Totally
BlESs YOU!
I'm just crying for all my OTP's...
omg Voldemort xD
JunHoe Eats Cherry Tomatoes with MinHoe Just because I tried to kill Harry Potter it does not mean I don't ship him with this little ginger girl
Omfg I'm dead 😂😂😭
Whadda hell... I ship Harry with Draco... Dammit someone burn me with holy water
JunHoe Eats Cherry Tomatoes with MinHoe
tbh I shipped them too but I had to stick to my racism/sexism and I also didn't want to piss Lucius off
+He Who Must Not Be Named omg but you re already dead ??
Its a weird feeling coming back to this song after so long. I used to listen to it a lot a year or so ago and I really related with it because times for me back then were.. rough, to put it simply. Yet, here I am, a little over a year later, and while everything's not perfect, it certainly is MUCH better. So all of you listening to this now, relating with it, crying to it, and dealing with whatever you're dealing with at the moment, just know that it's not the end. It's not gonna hurt forever. Pain, sadness, loneliness, they're all just like any other emotion; they come and go, it's all in how you deal with it. So don't give up, don't call it quits and shut the book. Things don't stay horrible forever, so stay strong my friends. It'll get better.
I don't understand something... In the world are that so many people and a lot of us are still alone: / I even don't know what "friend" mean...
I'll be your friend (=!
+Aidan McGinn I would call a friend someone who's there for you, doesn't judge you for how you look/act! But there ain't many people who are true friends most of them are fake and will judge you behind you're back, just watch with you you're calling a friend
Same :(
+Maria Delilah Just remember this: If we're all alone, then we're all together in that. It helps me sometimes.
Maria Delilah sad song;( verry deep meaning
This was before Adele said 'Hello'
yep :)
That's exactly what I thought when I first heard this song!
your cute
Hey Your you're*
My boyfriend, who i loved with all my heart, broke up with me and this song is probably the only that can describe how I feel...
Im sorry about that hope you feel better
Faith Jungkookie shame
Me, Myself and I
I really hope u moved on already, I just broke up myself
Faith Jungkookie ME, MYSELF AND I
I know the lyrics are "I don't want to be an island, I just want to feel alive" but the first time I heard this song I thought the first verse said "I don't want to be alive". The real lyrics are great, but somehow the way I misheard it is almost more poignant.
This makes me want to cry. I can relate to this entire song. I'm in high school(or at least I think so, my country is this curriculum where instead of first year it's grade 7 up until grade 12) and like my past grades I don't mingle much. Then this cool guy came and we became friends. But, people were making gay jokes about us so he stopped talking to me to avoid the gay jokes. He really got mad at them and he really shouts loud when he's mad (no shit). After some time, our ESP teacher (teacher in values not being a psychic) talk to him about it and he stopped being mad at them for those stuff. You think that after this he's start talking to me again, right? Well, no. He STILL wouldn't talk to me. Hell, he's being friends with the people who bullied him AND my crush. I remain quiet none of the less and have some good friends. I'm not sure why he still won't talk to me, I mean, we're both English speaker (our country doesn't speak English that much, just so you know) and I have a hard time finding people with my interest. I still consider him as my friend, my first true friend in my entire class. I miss my old classmates really. At least there they like me (well except one but I don't like him back neither 'cause he's a douche) and might even trust me. Hell, most of my classmates don't even trust me, and my friend,who I kept talking about, and like my other seat mates, don't trust me to check their work, CHECK THEIR WORK. I still got my entire life ahead of me, so maybe I'll find my next true friend. I don't know yet, but I hope I do.
Hey we can be best friends if you want😀
I hope things get better for you, darlin'!!!
Although you may go through rough times always look to the light at the end of the dark cave. After all there's always a light in the darkness you just have to turn on the light ☺️😊 just a little more to help you through the week
I feel your pain I have been in the same position and it is not fun I can relate to this song too I have no friends I'm always the screw up and everything bad that happens is all my fault and I can be your friend well I'm 13 to be honest but people can say what they want don't listen to them I bet you are a very good person I bet you are very cool too
hey do you want to talk sometime, my kik is emo._.kitty
I never feel like i can tell anyone about how much I'm hurting inside. Not even my own family. Listening to songs like these helps me
Echo.... echo......
*cries*
2019 and still crying over it
When I was in my deep stages of depression, this song was my backbone. It described my feelings better than I ever could. I would listen to it and just lay on my bed and cry. Even now, hearing this song makes me tear up.
im tired of trying...
Don't give up, you just need to be more confident :)
+xSykezz same
+xSykezz There's always tomorrow.
+Ro Tyler theres not always a tomorrow for some people because some just give up
+xSykezz Sometimes, if you try too hard you push people away. Sit back and allow people to try with you now :)
I'm clinically depressed and 15.. It's so hard.. I'm used to having no friends. It doesn't bother me.. Even if I do have, they don't care or I don't like to hang out much which eventually grow us apart. No one understands me...
You're not alone I know that feeling..
I attempted suicide 3 months ago at 9
I miss my dog so much! She was my best friend and helped me though so much. I suffer from severe depression and anxiety and the one comfort next to God is gone :'(
Everyone: talks about how sad and lonely they are...
Me: laughs because of the Amazon echo ad at the end...
Me later: realizes how insensitive I am...
All the good artists don't make any new music... I was born in the wrong period of time :/
gammbbateeeeeeeee
same here
U are right, his songs are good, just the wrong time!!!🤔🤔🤔🤔
omg so true 😂
same.. Anybody knows why he's not making new music anymore? I wanna stan but I think I'm too late ..
I'm in love wit this song so amazing love it soooooooo much
Saldly..
I think this would be a theme song, for me.
If I had one...?
*sigh* Ofcourseistartseingyoueverywhere. /notjustHomestuck./ This is a horrible moment to say this but.. *facedesk*
John Egbert / Roxy Lalonde not only that, but all of us losing our family... losing the people we love, losing our fight that we should have won, but in the end we did win... because we finally get to see each other again, i get to see dave/ alpha bro.... you get to see jane/ your nanna.... roxy gets to see her mom/ rose..... jade gets to see her grandfather/ jake... although you may not be able to see your dad again.... i guess it could still work out..... only if.....
dirk strider I agree with u. I lost a loved one. I lost a brother, a cousin, and my dog. R.I.P. Family.
This would be a theme song for me, but nobody would care enough to hear it.
I can't stop listening to this song.....
Vampire diaries is the show that u possibly couldn't get over with .. I mean that show has something in it that drives crazy about it..everything feels so real ..the characters feels real .!! I mean possibly couldn't get over with that show !!
That moment when *THAT* sibling ate the last piece of cake
((Godimsofat))
same lmao
Jasmine Pradier You aren't fat. You have fat. Many people have extra fat. My aunt told me that fat actually helps your brain transmit signals to parts of your body. I'm not saying that us is good to be chubby, but if you feel uncomfortable with your body it probably shouldn't be because of someone else.
Jasmine Pradier I'm that sibling that either makes sweets or they're all gone by the time I realize they're in the house
The kind of song that makes you say f-ck life ._. :/
These are the type of songs youtube needs to recommend to me.
Memories of this song...
This guy that was my first love we lasted 3 years in a great unforgettable relationship...
We broke up 8 months ago cuz we were fighting all the time nd the distance..
but i feel that the reason wasn't strong to break up so i couldn't move on but I'm happy he did and he's with this new girl :)
💔
“Because when I drag my brother from the edge and deliver him back to you I want you to remember the things you felt while he was gone.”❤️❤️❤️🥺
I used to feel that I was always a problem in a friendship, but now that I look over them it was never me it was just a toxic relationship.I promise to you when you find the right friend you will never feel neglected or alone because they will always be there with you😊
I got my best friend......when all my other Friends just left me alone......I was sad when they left but now I'm so happy......I got the person who can do anything for me🙃🙃
It's been 4 years, since I first heard this song. My best friend showed it to me. Then she left. I was listening to it ever since. Then yet another friend left me. Now I'm 6 months after a break up and my only friend is on a trip to another continent.
And I'm here, just wondering, when will I stop relating to this song?
Like a fool
I pretend i am alright
But it's never enough
Is the only friend i have
Just my echo
My shadow
I'm screaming my name
When i close my eyes
I know not like he sings it but who is perfekt. He has so lovely songs
“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Matthew 11: 28-29 ✝️🕊
Only writers can relate:
*crying because you see your character*
Character: help
Me: more pain.
i have feel this way for a very long time in my life, with all the problems coming my way one after another, not giving me a break even just for a second, people that don't know me saying they're here for me but in reality they didin't know what i was going through nor what it felt like to go through all thoses stuff and not having time to take a break, "catch my breath", some might know what i mean. Going through hard stuff and having people saying they're here for you but they're not there when you need them. i totally can relate to that song, i've been screaming at the top of my lungs for so long, my voice is breaking and sometimes i feel like its gone..
I didn't hear this song for years,this night it appeared on my recommended.. and I missed listening to this song.. I used to listen to it hn I was sad and feeling alone..and cried myself to sleep.. thinking about those moments it makes me really sad..
i love this song so much!!
Shadow, shadow... is the only friend that I have... It's so beatiful...
This song speaks my life.. hugs to everyone who feels the same way... we gotta stick together no matter what. We got this ❤
Do you ever feel alone? Like you’re invisible and ignored? When nobody understands you, and those who do, even just a little, are too far to reach?
This is how I’ve felt for days. Weeks. Months even. I’ve always been the outcast, the one they leave first. The one they befriend on pity. I’m that one friend, that one person who puts others’ needs before my own. At first, they appreciate me, but eventually, they throw me under the bus.
It’s not depression. Trust me, I’d know. It’s more loneliness than anything else. The result of people, both friends and family, leaving you. And the ones that stick around will never actually understand.
I’m that one person. That one person ignored by most. I’m that one person that “those girls” talk about when I’m not around. The one they all judge. I don’t consider myself ugly. Weird? Yes, but in a good way. Apparently, others don’t think that way. You don’t know what I’ve been through, how I’ve been feeling and how I feel now. You don’t know how many important and amazing people have walked away, out of my life, and how much it hurts. You make think I’m alright, but looks can be deceiving, can’t they? In reality, I’m falling apart, too fast to be put back together. I’m fading and nobody knows, nobody cares.
To be honest, with all this pain and stress, I don’t even know who I am anymore. Everything just seems to tear me apart, like paper. I just feel like I’ve lost so much that there isn’t much more I could possibly lose. I feel like I’ve lost near everything. My happiness, my friends, my patience (which I don’t know if I even had to begin with), my interests. Every day, I watch more of my life fade and slip away. I’m thankful for what I do have, but it’s hard to be truly happy when the things that bring you joy walk away, or disappear without any notice or warning. Being lonely sucks. When you have nobody to talk to that actually understands. I have friends, but most of them judge. The ones that do care, or are even willing to listen, are too far away. And I don’t know if I’ll ever reach them.
This is for anyone. Everyone. Mainly for the people who know. Those who know what it’s like to be alone. But it’s also for those who don’t know. Those that never have and probably never will face this problem. Those who have everything they could ask for. Why? Why is this also for those people? Because they are often the ones who judge us most. They’re the ones who nag on us for expressing how we feel. And what you don’t understand about this is that sometimes, it’s what we need the most. To talk with someone. To find someone that knows and understands. And sometimes, that’s all we need. We just need to find ONE person that understands you. Because of those people, the ones who don’t understand, the ones who judge, our days suck. Because you’re too busy judging instead of getting to know us and what we’re experiencing. You’re too busy mocking us or judging us instead of giving us the one simple thing we need most: comfort, or love. Or just someone to talk to. Someone to trust.
Because of you judgers, I lose myself a little, more and more each day. I lose myself to the kind of people who block you out just because you’re the new kid, or you’re not as rich or as popular as everyone else. I’m here to speak for those who can’t. Those people, including me that don’t ever know what to say, or know but don’t find the right place or time to say it. Now at least you know why there are those certain people that refuse to work in groups, or never raise their hands, or always sit in the back part of the classroom, alone and excluded. Now you know. People are like that because they’ve lost something. They’ve lost themselves, a loved one, a friend, a lover, or someone else. We are like this because of the people who don’t care, those who don’t know what we’re going through and how much it hurts.
I’ve never been understood. I know I’m not truly alone, but it feels that way. And the few things that bring me peace, are gone, or never around much. I hate that when I find something that makes me happy, like a type of music or video game, I’m judged because of it, for reason I guess I’ll never understand.
I don’t know what else to say. I feel like I’ve made a point. I hope, with this, I’ve given a voice to those who don’t know what to say, or just don’t know how to say it. I hope I’ve changed the mindset of those people who are guilty of judging. Because for those that understand, you know. You know how it feels and what kind of pain people might be experiencing. And for those that judge, you don’t realize how much it affects us and how deep it has dragged us down.
I just hope this allows people to realize that sometimes, we just need someone to talk to…
Jon Last Thank You so much you just said my everyday life..I don't even know how to express myself, I just want to give you a big long hug..cause I've been crying secretly😞😞😭😭 I felt pain everyday..
Same here! I deal with pain every single day and I am so happy now! I feel like I have a voice to express what I feel! Thank you so much for taking your time to express those who don't know how to express what they are feeling on there own. This is amazing and I feel like it derserves for likes!
You have described basically my entire life. Thank you...may God bless you ❤
I am scared
I have never had this problem, and I know I'm a little late to respond to this, but even though we're strangers, I support you. I've found that even support from someone you don't know can make a difference.
I hope my moral support is enough to help
For those with depression and feeling lost...
I understand how you feel...
You're not alone...
*hugs*
Ty💝
You are the world to someone. You may not know it, but you are. If you're not (or you don't feel like you are), then reach out to someone and be what THEY need. You'll find purpose in that. And you may find a friend. Please keep trying. Don't give up. There IS a light at the end of the tunnel. There IS an end to the valley of weeping. There IS! You are PASSING THROUGH.
+teri chadwick thanks c:
Thx teri.... You help me with your human message
i lost my dog two days before christmas, it would have been his first christmas with us, he was a dog we found, starving and helpless. he was the nicest thing you can imagine, he had bright brown eyes and a bright soul that if you were feeling down about anything, you see him at the door walking in the house made you forget all about it, he was my sisters best friend, but we left to go to my dads for christmas and i got a call from my mom saying he got hit and was hit so hard that his collar flew off of him, then we came home to an empty home of despair, pity, and depression, then me and my sisters all walked outside and saw a pile of gravel and a hedge of flowers, and there laid the one thing that caused happiness in a home of mess.
That time when someone you love passes away
R.I.P my grand dad
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
what's weird is that I relate with this song i can't be the only one can i?
So you still come back to this song after all these years, probably because it makes you feel understood.
You still hope everything will be okay, even when you feel like you've been in the same bus since like forever.
You are surrounded by people and yet you still feel alone.
You give your all and they still leave.
You want to be happy but sadness is more of your game.
If you feel like that , just know that you are not alone,
I mean i seem to understand exactly how you are feeling, because i feel it too.
I would listen to you, because i understand how it feels not having someone to talk to you,
I would never leave you, because i know how it feels to be left behind,
I would be there for you,
Dont give up, you got this.
This song makes me feel more alone then I already am. 😔
It will be alright. You can get through this. I listened to this song in 2011, when this video was created. Here I am, it's 2019, almost 2020. I am still here, still alive. You can survive. You can get there.
It's sad. most songs now a days have no meaning (*7 rings*) and they get popular but the ones who have meanings and are beautiful get no where. what has gone wrong with modern day music?
i agree!
This song reminds me of my friend who committed suicide last year... she was my first friend... and I miss her so much... I'm so grateful for my other friends, but sometimes I feel like i'm just a burden on them...
Hello, hello
Anybody out there? Cause I don't hear a sound
Alone, alone
I don't really know where the world is but I miss it now
I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name
Like a fool at the top of my lungs
Sometimes when I close my eyes I pretend I'm alright
But it's never enough
Cause my echo, echo
Is the only voice coming back
Shadow, shadow
Is the only friend that I have
Listen, listen
I would take a whisper if that's all you had to give
But it isn't, is it?
You could come and save me and try to chase the crazy right out of my head
I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name
Like a fool at the top of my lungs
Sometimes when I close my eyes I pretend I'm alright
But it's never enough
Cause my echo, echo
Is the only voice coming back
Shadow, shadow
Is the only friend that I have
I don't wanna be an island
I just wanna feel alive and
Get to see your face again
I don't wanna be an island
I just wanna feel alive and
Get to see your face again
But 'til then
Just my echo, my shadow
You're my only friend and...
I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name
Like a fool at the top of my lungs
Sometimes when I close my eyes I pretend I'm alright
But it's never enough
Cause my echo, echo
Oh my shadow, shadow
Hello, hello
Anybody out there?
this was very useless.
@@greysonalex why?
As much as I hate crying, I needed this. My question is, how many times is my heart supposed to be broken before the universe decided that it has been enough pain for me?
echo...echo... is the only voice coming back.
Hits hard when I have no friends and all these issues piling up. So I try to act defensive to hide the fact that I’m lonely as hell, I can’t make friends cause of anxiety, I feel fucked up and hopeless because I feel ugly and I can’t even talk to anyone online, and I end each day feeling empty and confused as to why. My past even if it was only 6 years ago hurts, thinking about when I had friends and could talk to them, when I was happy and the magic was there. Now it just feels, bland. I don’t even know how it started to get bad, I can’t think these days. I can’t even talk to my dad or brother anymore, my friends have either moved and I have no way of talking to them ever again, or left with the group of girls who actually have a chance at succeeding in life. I don’t blame them for leaving, I’m not meant to be around anyone I guess... I’m sorry for ranting, I don’t need fake pity, I just wanted to get it off my chest.
If you need anyone to talk to, my insta is ryanxelizabet. You can look for me there♡
I remember when I was a kid, I would stand outside my class looking around my school singing this song. I always felt so alone. Still do.
Being a stranger in a crowd and all alone brought me here
This song is so beautiful 🤩 2019?
Here 2021 reminding myself of the old times
i dont wanna be an island either
Bookie Wookie but you heart is dead already..
Thank you for making me smile my friend! I really needed it 😂😂
maybe we are alone because we can do better without someone else, maybe others hold us back, iv been alone for 19 years... so since i was born, my life is pretty great, but is lonely and have no one to share it with, we attract our ideals, and if we lose others overtime constantly and painfully then they cant be our ideals, so hang int there guys, find yourself before you find someone else, that's what i do, i dont do much as to getting a girl because i dont like the way this generation is going, no one has anything unique about them, all i see are clones made f makeup that only want 1 of two things, but either way i aint getting what i want here, i'm gonna go america, expand my horizon, you all should to, well not to america specifically but you see what i mean, the world is waiting for you to explore! i thought at one point my life had nothing good in store, so i was going to join the military, then i found my calling, carpentry, absolutely love it, and you know what, i'm bloody happy with the way life is going, and i cant wait to find out whats coming my way, you all need to find your calling, go out, explore new options to pursue, dont sit at home depressing yourself listening to this stuff, sure i love this music too but its not who i am and its not who you are, we can only relate in some way, but in the end of it all, YOU ARE all YOUR meant to be... YOU, so go and find yourself!!!! (if you need something of inspiration, try: owl city shooting star) ;) good luck guys, not that you need it :)
My brother is joining the military, I didn't know that's where depressed people went.
Can someone tell me how I am supposed to feel when the universe allows u to meet a girl who is just perfect , so so perfect. And u get to talk to her , listen to her , love her , touch her and one day u are told that u won't get to be with her for the rest of Ur life..... I've cried so much I feel dead inside.
Sometimes when i close my eyes ,
I pretend Im alright but Its
never enoguh ... Still one of my favs ....
