That Song

Sometimes songs are a lot more than just songs.

My favorite song is This City by Sam Fischer, I love this song for a multitude of reasons. The main reason being the lyrics.

The song starts out with the line " I'm seeing lonely people in crowded rooms ", which is a contradicting yet slightly comforting statement.

Overall I perceive the song as the writer comparing "this city" to someone who hurt them.

Sometimes songs have a way of putting your feelings into words when you can't do it yourself. A lot of times people like music for the beat, the hype, or the lyrics. I love this song for the lyrics especially.

Another line is " been a couple months since I felt like I'm home ", I think the writer is comparing home to a person, because sometimes people can feel most like home.

I found this song off of my suggested on Spotify, I always skipped over it. Until I ran out of skips one night and really needed music, because I'm not snazzy enough for premium ;), and the song played through fully, and next thing I know I can't stop listening to it.

There are always songs that you like, and then there's THAT song.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
