Miscellaneous
This is an honest conversation I had with 5 friends in my life about their experience of singleness, annoying clichés they hear, and what they do with loneliness. I also share my story through playing a few songs that have shaped my year of heartbreak.Here are the song lyrics for reference:1. "I Will Love You Still" by: Titus HaugI am overwhelmedAnd I can't understandWith our shoes all worn downI'm westward boundWhat about all this love we've learned to have?Seasons will pass, but our love is gonna lastI will love you still yes I always willI will love you still yes I always willI will love you still yes I always willI will love you still yes I always will2. "Two" by: Sleeping at LastI don't even know where to startAlready tired of trying to recall when it all fell apartI just want to love you, to love you, to love you wellI just want to learn how, somehow, to be loved myselfLike a force to be reckoned withA mighty ocean or a gentle kissI will love you without any strings attachedAnd what a privilege it is to loveA great honor to hold you up3. "First Week" by: Vera BlueI am on the very first week away from youNot a lot to say or doI see you in the placesWhere I once held your skinThere's nowhere I can goWhere we haven't beenIn the middle of a heartbreak song that I'm writing for youI find words to escape with all the courage I grewBut I feel you pulling and my spirit breaks againI'll be wholeBut I don't know when4. "Motion Sickness" by: Phoebe BridgersI hate you for what you didAnd I miss you like a little kidI faked it every time but that's alrightI can hardly feel anythingI hardly feel anything at allI have emotional motion sicknessSomebody roll the windows downThere are no words in the English languageI could scream to drown you out5. "Miscarriage" by: Said The WhaleWhen you bled out blood like it was both of usAnd I held your beautiful bodyWhen you put on a brave face for my familyAnd we had ThanksgivingAnd I'm thinking how happy it seemed my mother wasWhen she thought that I'd be a fatherHow we gathered our friends aroundAnd broke the news like a couple of foolsTell me how to actAll I wanna do is make it alrightI want to tell you that you're beautifulAnd everything is fine6. "Half As Good As You" by: Tom Odell feat. Alice MertonI'm sick to death of eating breakfast on my ownStarting out my daily blues I'm sick to death of spilling coffee on my phone Scrolling through pictures of youI'd like to say that maybe we could work it outBut I know that it's no useIf I ever find anyone half as good as youI think maybe that will do I kissed a stranger in the hallway late last nightHe was wearing purple shoesI asked him when he kissed me, could he close his eyes?But he just looked at me confusedAnd people say my expectations are too highBut I'm not asking for the moonIf I ever find anyone half as good as youI think maybe that would doThanks for all your support.
