My Sad Song Playlist

Everyone has those songs that they listen to when they are upset.

My Sad Song Playlist

Oh admit it, you have a sad song playlist too.

When you're feeling down, because someone broke your heart, you're fighting with a friend, or you did badly on an exam, you listen to that playlist. Those same songs give you a sense of comfort and security on your bad days.

These three songs that are on my sad songs playlist.

"Amnesia"

"I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape"

This song has been on my playlist since it was released by Five Seconds of Summer in 2014. It is the typical breakup song and has such relevant lyrics. I have listened to this song hundreds of times, driving in the car with the windows down singing at the top of my lungs. I would totally recommend this song to those with broken hearts. It gives me some peace of mind when I listen to it.

"Heal"

"Take my mind and take my pain,
Like an empty bottle takes the rain.
And heal, heal, heal, heal.
And take my past and take my sins,
Like an empty sail takes the wind.
And heal, heal, heal, heal.
And tell me some things last."

I would recommend listening to this song when you are laying in bed and when you have both headphones in. Tom Odell knows exactly how to make the listeners vulnerable and fall under his spell.

"Piece by Piece"

"And all of your words fall flat
I made something of myself and now you wanna come back
But your love—it isn't free, it has to be earned
Back then I didn't have anything you needed so I was worthless"

Although to me, this song isn't relevant because my father didn't leave me as a kid, I still hang on to every word Kelly Clarkson sings. At some point in my life and I'm sure in everyone's lives, someone has broken their heart. Piece by piece, someone has put you back together.

"Till I Fall Asleep"

"Can we go back before the storm came raging?
And everything we built was gone
So sing to me til I fall asleep
Like the way you did when you were still mine
So sing to me til I fall asleep
Like the way you did when you were still mine
And tell me that it's not over yet"

I recently found a love for Jayme Dee. Her voice is full of soul and beauty. It has a full, rich sound to it and I love every second I hear her sing. Not to mention her songs are very relevant to breakups. I would listen to every one of her songs on repeat for days.

"The Words"

"And I know
The scariest part is letting go
'Cause love is a ghost you can’t control
I promise you the truth can’t hurt us now
So let the words slip out of your mouth"

Christina Perri always will be one of my favorite artists. I feel as if she is often overlooked because she mostly sings about being broken and going through breakups. People put her in the same game as Taylor Swift, when Christina Perri should be in a completely different league.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
