They think that my mind is resilient and that I'll just think everything is okay, but in truth I'm only human. I listen to this song and think, if only my parents knew that this song describes exactly how I feel, they would maybe take my feelings into consideration. But I can only take so much before I've had enough and I can't take it anymore. I always feel like I have to take sides, so for me, this song is saying, I would do anything for you, I'll hold my breath, I'll bite my tongue, I'll hold the weight of the worlds. This song to me means so much because my parents are going through a divorce, and they are arguing all time. To be strong, but to show yourself to the world, just how human you are. "I can do it." "I'll get through it." It may be for myself or for those relying on me, but in the end, I will do what I need to do. However, your weaknesses are still strong, nagging at your heart. I've always felt a duty to try to be that kind of person because I know that others are relying on me to be so, and not just for social image, but for emotional support as well. Even if it's not some big leadership job, people have just assumed that I'm a happy and stable person. I can personally relate to this song cause I know what it's like to be expected to move on and stay strong but still wanting to fall into tears every other second. This concept of having too much expected of you, whether by yourself or others, fits into relationships of all kind. She is willing to move on even though she's going to stumble, bleed, and falter.Īnother thing that makes this song different is that it's not just about love. It's saying that it's important to understand your limits and when enough is too much. This song is about strength, maintained and lost. A lot of songs these days are about what's lost and never getting it back. What I love about this song is that it's not just one of your typical "I'm such a hopeless reck because I lost you and can't move on." While it's okay to show pain, you will have to move on. Your words in my head, knives in my heart
