this anthem is for frightened hopeless romantics... frightened hopeless romantics is me... i've opened my heart too many times that i've locked it and ate the key. i just dont wanna open it anymore
I’m the same way. I’ve always loved romance and doing romantic things. Then my boyfriend broke up with me 2 days before Christmas, aka 4 days ago, bc I came out to him as non-binary.... he’s only interested in girls.... Now I’m scared that when I fall for someone again that they’re going to do the same thing.
@@luketoby7405 Same. I want to just give up on love so bad, but I can’t. Something inside of me keeps holding to the hope that’ll find the right person. It’s exhausting.
I relate to this song on a personal level, one of my biggest fears in life is liking someone or loving and them either not liking or loving me back as much. Like, faking how they feel about me. I've been hurt in the past..so I hide my feelings and act like I'm not interested in anyone. I keep my guard up and I know it, it's wrong but I do. And when she sings "I'm scared of breaking open" hits me hard, because..I'm so deprived of affection, I forget how to act and cry or panic when someone I like shows interest or when someone confesses to me
Agreed, I have been hurt so badly so many times that I just act like I'm numb to everyone and don't care, also have social anxiety which makes all the points you're making just a tad worse
Waitress isn’t a particular favourite but this is my fav song from any musical thus far because... I relate so hard XD. I have such a big fear of abandonment that inevitably makes me scared of love and companionship. This song perfectly describes why I shelter my heart so sturdily.
@@yatomcyato6459 yeah the thing is I’m very aware that all these feelings are just in my head and that I just have to push though but it drains me so much that the way I feel after makes me regret it. A good example would be this week just gone…new job, socialised with new people all week, plus learning the material for the new job caused me to have a breakdown last night. It’s just so incredibly overwhelming that I avoid it as much as possible and the worst part is I know it’s bad for me. But feeling drained and on edge all the time is a worse alternative than being alone.
That really rots. I mean, that it hurts so bad just to want to love. Have you considered therapy at all or been medicated? I know both sometimes don’t work, so I guess it’s just making sure.
@@yatomcyato6459 I’ve had both done. I got diagnosed properly when I was 15 I was medicated for 4 years after that and went to therapy for a year and a half. I’m almost 22 now and I’m definitely a lot better at handling things without meds. It was just this week in particular was really hard. Sometimes I do need to just have that breakdown and let everything go. But don’t worry! As I said I’m a lot better than how I was when I was a teenager. I couldn’t even step foot in school for over 2 months without having a anxiety attack. Definitely an improvement over the years.
You know what? That’s incredible! I’m really glad you’ve seen that improvement, and I hope that it keeps improving. I’m sorry this week was hard though. I get it can be like that. Sometimes though, as long as you know what you’re doing, you’re already being the greatest help to yourself. Though, to make up for the week, here’s a cookie of courage: ✨🍪✨
Legit when she sings "What if he opens up a door and I can't close it" is how I felt for a very long time before I started seeing my partner. We're almost a year in and I'm so very happy and thrilled to be with her every single day.
you know, loving someone who doesn’t love you as much hurts, a lot. But what hurts more is the begging and the lowering of my standards, just to get that crumb of love i knew they’re capable of. But they’ll eventually leave and all that love i knew they had they’ll give it to someone else. And you’ll stay questioning yourself, “what was wrong with me?” “Was i too much?” “Was i not enough?” You’re left with nothing , they took all your love with them. But sooner or later when you’re alone and working on yourself, you’ll realize that they only took a piece of your love, not all or it. Then you’ll be doing and feeling things you never knew you were capable of. Just a matter of time .
This is exactly the way I feel. I have become something I’m not happy of, I can’t stand myself anymore all because I gave all my love to him. I can’t stop thinking “am I good enough?” “Why doesn’t he like me” “should I lose weight?” And it’s making me miserable. So pathetic, over a BOY? Really? But yes, your comment is underrated-
The timing and inflection on this song is difficult, she pulls it off so well tho. They casted her perfectly. No one else could pull this song off like that. Perfection.
@@cel9225 the waitress community is actually really nice! If you're from tiktok, if you're from theatre, Spotify shuffle, whatever, listen to the whole musical to bless your ears ahaha.
I just got asked out by an old friend. I had been talking to him for months after I had moved away and when I told him I’d be coming back to our home state, he asked me out on a date. I said yes, as I had a crush on him for quite a while, but I can relate to this song so much. I have such a difficult time processing my feelings for people, so seeing this made feel like I had something to relate to (I also told him about my difficulty processing these things and he completely understands). The thing that made me laugh out loud during this song is when she sang “He could be colorblind!” Straight up called out the man I’m going out with. Good thing I know he’s not a criminal 😂
OMG, I also like a friend of mine.. it took me so long to understand my feelings and express them even to myself.. and, I have also moved back to my hometown right now and we don't talk as much, and I let things just be -it could be for the best, since he is not super expressive, as well 😅 but, OH MY, he is colorblind, too... your story made me almost choke..😂 I wish all the best to you two, though!! Have the best time and communication together!❤
The fear of rejection and vulnerability mixed with a desperate wanting to be known, loved, and accepted is an incredibly difficult combination that for a long time has caused me to be alone. Breaking out of those mental cycles and learning how to really open yourself up to and accept hurt when it comes is hard... But its doable, and im happy to say ive been making steps. Hearing this song though made me feel very seen and very heard
Fun fact: The singer and actress pictured is Kimoko Glenn, who besides her Broadway shows, is known for the role of Brook ‘Soso’ on Orange Is The New Black!

I'm vibing over here at 3:43 in the f-ing morning on the phone with a guy who broke my heart on multiple occasions, one time even using me to cheat on someone, and I STILL talk to him. I'm terrified I may give him another chance. I'm scared to get hurt again.
i know how that feels a little too well and trust me when i say you deserve better. my ex hurt me numerous times but i never completely left and couldn’t stop myself from loving him because i kept telling myself things would be different and i’d never have what i had with him with somebody else. now i know that’s a good thing. you’re worth more than that pain. i don’t know you but reading this seriously got to me and i hope you figured it out seeing that that comment was 4 months ago.
@@jaylynng.2434 I still relive the pain sometimes, and I can't bring myself to stop talking to him. Hell, I talked to him last night. And it hurts, that I'll never have what I did with him. That connection was just... perfect, you know? But I'm better. I understand that I'm worth more than what happened, and that even if he's sorry we're still different people than we were. We're not compatible like that anymore, and he's moved on. I'm still doing my best to. I have a nasty habit of listening to music related to those emotions with the purpose of crying, but I'm doing my best to break it. I'm better and I deserve better. At this point I've surrounded myself with a sea of friends who love and respect me, and I'm doing my best to be myself and expand who I really am. I'll miss what we had, but I know there's no point in grieving. It's better to just move on. The long and the short of it: I'm doing my best. Thank you for your reply, it hit me (in a good way). It's nice for someone else to relate to how I feel and felt.
@@TheFirstRose that’s so good honestly. i do the same thing with music so i definitely am not gonna judge you on that. you have a really good mindset on the whole thing and i’m proud of you for making it this far:) i hope you have a truly amazing present and future

I'm laughing because Kimiko voices Nifty in the Hazbin Hotel series and now I'm just cackling because I'm imagining her singing about Alastor to Charlie, Vaggie and Mimzy
This is too relatable... in my case I even feel like this when I'm trying to make new friends. So, yeah... I'm crying in my room right now, thank you very much.
I am naturally a hopeless romantic and I've been looking for the guy in person and online but can't seem to find the motivation to go on and "wait for it" but I'm impatient, also I have a really fantastic rose-colored glasses view over love relationships and expect a fairytale-like couple.. *(Probably will die alone but jeez this song is made for me to scream and manifest it to happen)*
I’m not prepared for that I’m scared of breaking open, But still I can’t help from hoping to find someone to talk to, who likes the way I am…… that line hits me straight in the feelings
This line hits a little to hard.. “What if he opens up a DOOR and I can’t CLOSE it!!!” I honestly still can’t close it and it’s been 5 years now!!! 😓😭😭💔💔
2:42 This takes me two weeks ago when my crush for a while kissed me on a 'date' we had. It was perfect: I was about to leave on a train and she grabbed my head and kissed me (in a gentle way ofc). And I swear, in that moment, I was the happiest girl on earth. I made all sorts of stories in my head about what could happen next, but the next day she wouldn't answer any of my texts (I just texted like 3 times, one of them asking if she was avoiding me). Finally she did, just to tell me she really liked me but she wasn't ready for a relationship and wanted to still be friends. That's how she opened up a door and I still can't close it.
I CAN RELATE TO THIS SONG SO MUCH i used to have crushes, three in general, and it never works out. they either leave me, like someone else, or betray me in some kind. i just want to meet someone, the perfect someone. I've been desperate of meeting my soulmate ever since and when i listened to this song again I could not believe I didn't relate to this a few years ago but I do now. Is meeting the perfect soulmate really too much to ask for?

It's weird how well this song captures all our anxieties about relationships. And our loneliness...

this song makes me want to get in the washing machine and turn it to spin only
in a good way 🏌️♀️
I stick with real things
Usually facts and figures
When information's in its place
I minimize the guessing game
Guess what? (What?)
I don't like guessing games
Or when I feel things
Before I know the feelings
How am I supposed to operate
If I'm just tossed around by fate?
Like on an unexpected date?
With a stranger who might talk too fast
Or ask me questions about myself
Before I've decided that
He can ask me questions about myself
He might sit too close
Or call the waiter by his first name
Or eat Oreos
But eat the cookie before the cream
But what scares me the most
What scares me the most
Is what if when he sees me, what if he doesn't like it?
What if he runs the other way and I can't hide from it? (Ah)
What happens then? (Ah)
If when he knows me, he's only disappointed?
What if I give myself away, to only get it given back? (Ah)
I couldn't live with that (how do you live with that?)
So, I'm just fine, inside my shell-shaped mind
This way I get the best view
So that when he sees me, I want him too
Dawn, don't you think you're being a little, I mean maybe just a tad
I'm not defensive!
I'm simply being cautious
I can't risk reckless dating
Due to my miscalculating
While a certain suitor stands in line
I've seen in movies
Most made for television
You cannot be too careful
When it comes to sharing your life
I could end up a miserable wife
Sorry girls, but he could be criminal, some sort of psychopath
Who escaped from an institution
Somewhere where they don't have girls
He could have masterminded some way to find me
He could be colorblind
How untrustworthy is that?
He could be less than kind
Or even worse he could be very nice, have lovely eyes
And make me laugh, come out of hiding
What do I do with that?
Oh, god
What if when he sees me
I like him and he knows it?
What if he opens up a door
And I can't close it? (What if a door is opened?)
What happens then? (What happens then?)
If when he holds me (when)
My heart is set in motion (he)
I'm not prepared for that (holds)
I'm scared of breaking open (me)
But still I can't help from hoping (but I can't help)
To find someone to talk to
Who likes the way I am
Someone who when he sees me
Wants to again

God bless you😌
Thanks it was so hard to sing it when the words weren’t on the fucking screen
I'm vibing over here at 3:43 in the f-ing morning on the phone with a guy who broke my heart on multiple occasions, one time even using me to cheat on someone, and I STILL talk to him. I'm terrified I may give him another chance. I'm scared to get hurt again.
i know how that feels a little too well and trust me when i say you deserve better. my ex hurt me numerous times but i never completely left and couldn’t stop myself from loving him because i kept telling myself things would be different and i’d never have what i had with him with somebody else. now i know that’s a good thing. you’re worth more than that pain. i don’t know you but reading this seriously got to me and i hope you figured it out seeing that that comment was 4 months ago.
@@jaylynng.2434 I still relive the pain sometimes, and I can't bring myself to stop talking to him. Hell, I talked to him last night. And it hurts, that I'll never have what I did with him. That connection was just... perfect, you know? But I'm better. I understand that I'm worth more than what happened, and that even if he's sorry we're still different people than we were. We're not compatible like that anymore, and he's moved on. I'm still doing my best to. I have a nasty habit of listening to music related to those emotions with the purpose of crying, but I'm doing my best to break it. I'm better and I deserve better. At this point I've surrounded myself with a sea of friends who love and respect me, and I'm doing my best to be myself and expand who I really am. I'll miss what we had, but I know there's no point in grieving. It's better to just move on.
The long and the short of it: I'm doing my best.
Thank you for your reply, it hit me (in a good way). It's nice for someone else to relate to how I feel and felt.
@@TheFirstRose that’s so good honestly. i do the same thing with music so i definitely am not gonna judge you on that. you have a really good mindset on the whole thing and i’m proud of you for making it this far:) i hope you have a truly amazing present and future
You deserve better hon! He hurt you! You deserve someone who respects and loves you! Everyone does! EVERYONE👏DESERVES👏SOMEONE👏WHO👏LOVES 👏THEM👏WITHOUT👏ANY👏CHANGES!👏YOU👏ARE👏ENOUGH!👏
Now why did this make me tear up...
I've discovered this song today and is the only one i'll be listening for the next two days of my life
Insane to think that she’s now a cartoon horse in a magical centaur world absolutely belting her heart out
I have questions
@@jandarrellortega8250 oohhh, i don't remember there being centaur in it tho.
did you know the girl who voices Rider is also in Waitress!! she's the one who calls Dawn defensive
she’s also in that kiff show on disney channel!! haven’t seen it but saw ads for it while owl house was still on and def recognized her voice
Peni Parker.
Lena from Ducktales.
The new Niffty for Hazbin Hotel
As a person who eats the cookie first, i feel insulted
You should
@@littlemanwithhat1966 evil
It's strange to know that this is nifty from hazbin hotel.
She sounds nice
I've never seen this musical but this song plays in my head daily
I'm laughing because Kimiko voices Nifty in the Hazbin Hotel series and now I'm just cackling because I'm imagining her singing about Alastor to Charlie, Vaggie and Mimzy
girlies southern accent disappears like 5 times 😭😭
If you're a girl and u like girls this hits hard doesn't it
YEAH
Yes!
Meeee
yeah!
Crying to this wasn't what I was expecting today but I'll take it
the “close it” is my favorite part
idk about y'all but this gives me commitment issues-
I literally love this song so much. I chose it as my audition song for my first musical! I can't wait!
I saw this live, and you could really feel the emotion in the room. It was amazing.
everyone rise for the hopeless-romantics-afraid-of-denial anthem
the way kimiko sings this is just insane
This is too relatable... in my case I even feel like this when I'm trying to make new friends. So, yeah... I'm crying in my room right now, thank you very much.
I've finally memorized it!
If only I was this determined to study for school 🤦♂️
Why is this song just so freaking relatable??????
I am naturally a hopeless romantic and I've been looking for the guy in person and online but can't seem to find the motivation to go on and "wait for it" but I'm impatient, also I have a really fantastic rose-colored glasses view over love relationships and expect a fairytale-like couple..
*(Probably will die alone but jeez this song is made for me to scream and manifest it to happen)*
Please do I love you like a table from waitress! Love these videos
I just discover this song and I already love it! RIP the repeat button... this is my overthinking romantic anthem
i second this
I’m not prepared for that I’m scared of breaking open,
But still I can’t help from hoping to find someone to talk to,
who likes the way I am……
that line hits me straight in the feelings
this made me cry....she really put the exact felling in the whole song 😢
This line hits a little to hard.. “What if he opens up a DOOR and I can’t CLOSE it!!!”
I honestly still can’t close it and it’s been 5 years now!!! 😓😭😭💔💔
When you change he/him to she/her in this song, it makes to be a pretty good song for someone that is questioning their sexuality!
"I'm not prepared for that I'm scared of breaking open"
RELATABLE
Me, an outgoing flirt who's gone through multiple gfs and bfs this year:
*Ah yes, this is totally my song*
The "He could be COLORBLIND!" line kills me.😭😂😂
WHY DO I WANT A SHE/HER AND THEY/THEM VERSION OF THIS SO BAD IT HURTS
SAME!! A she/her version of this song would save my life tbh😂
Reinaery did a she/her cover, u may want to check It out coz its rlly good
Reinaery is your girl for wlw covers. She's amazing.
what if Dawn were bi?
@@enterprisingbiosphere3933 “what if” wdym she is bi /hj
2:42 This takes me two weeks ago when my crush for a while kissed me on a 'date' we had. It was perfect: I was about to leave on a train and she grabbed my head and kissed me (in a gentle way ofc). And I swear, in that moment, I was the happiest girl on earth. I made all sorts of stories in my head about what could happen next, but the next day she wouldn't answer any of my texts (I just texted like 3 times, one of them asking if she was avoiding me). Finally she did, just to tell me she really liked me but she wasn't ready for a relationship and wanted to still be friends.
That's how she opened up a door and I still can't close it.
I CAN RELATE TO THIS SONG SO MUCH
i used to have crushes, three in general, and it never works out. they either leave me, like someone else, or betray me in some kind.
i just want to meet someone, the perfect someone. I've been desperate of meeting my soulmate ever since and when i listened to this song again I could not believe I didn't relate to this a few years ago but I do now. Is meeting the perfect soulmate really too much to ask for?
oh look it’s my anthem
"Someone who when he sees me wants to agaaaaain..." 💔💔🥺
Singing this song for my audition for my school’s musical..wish me luck!
How did you do? I know im very late but I was scrolling down and saw your comment
I’m so glad that renga fan art tiktok let me discover this song
AAAYYYY SK8 FANDOM
This is a great video I’ve got a solo for this and it’s realy good for practicing it
i live by this song it literally applies perfectly to me
“He could be COLORBLINDDD”
this whole song just exposed the reasons why ive been single all my life
i used to not be too much into musicals- until i watched Grease, HSM, Teen Beach Movie, Hairspray.... and i’m obsessed with certain musicals
her voice is so pretty
Could you do "The Negative" from Waitress, or maybe "Satisfied" from Hamilton? ♡

Or both
I get to sing this for state drama!! I am so excited!!
very nice to see there's a song that explains my entire love life
already my favourite song
I relate to this song so much I'm afraid to ask anyone out because I'm scared they will reject me
this never gets old
Singing this for an audition wish me luck 🤞
How did it go?
How am I just now finding this, such a banger
This song makes me cry so hard because I relate
She’s soooo talented
