Grey Daze-Shadows :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:




I'm choking up again
Tell me friend, when do shadows end
I can't see over them, wondering
When the mind gives in
I have unhealthy attractions
To the pain that never mends
If I could write the light a single note
It'd say"when do shadows end?"
Put me in a room with a silver tray
Smile and nod, then turn away
Tell me everything is in my head
Fuck your pills I spit em out instead
I'm choking up again
Tell me friend, when do shadows end
I can't see over them, wondering
When the mind gives in
I have unhealthy attractions
To the pain that never mends
If I could write the light a single note
It'd say"when do shadows end?"
Bottom of the bottle
Fall to dark but show the light of day
I wouldn't have it any other way
I'm choking up again
Tell me friend, when do shadows end
I can't see over them, wondering
When the mind gives in
I have unhealthy attractions
To the pain that never mends
If I could write the light a single note
It'd say"when do shadows end?"

Falling Down
Jun 11, 2025

Why do I listen to summer songs in the cold seasons, and in summer I listen to Christmas songs? 😁 Anyway, this is one of my favorites from Dan as well, one of the few songs I can sing relatively ok (many Dan's songs are easy to sing for my range). Only hope my neighbors back at uni thought so too 😅 otherwise.. sorry?





(no YouTube link cuz we don't have YT Music in my country)
Summer eternally
Haunting and burning me up inside
Like some kind of fever
Waiting for nightfall
Frying like an egg on the sidewalk
But I can't quite seem to

Stay on my feet
The kids on the street
Pursuing the question
Parents retreating
They wanna know why
I'm always falling down

After the sun is set
Bourbon and cigarette mingling
And conversations
I feel no resistance
But I'm still no assistance with your tingling
Little sensations

Bent like a nail
Too bent to impale
You rolling your eyes at me
Like I've failed you now
You wanna know why
I'm always falling down

Why do we always have to
Sit around and analyse it?
Why can't we just relax and
Be?

It isn't easy to think about
Anything other than old regrets
Much as I like to
The second I'm over it
I know that you will come around knowing that
You're gonna try to

Say you can help me
Like you can tell me
How to be happy
Wholesome and healthy
You don't even know why
I'm always falling down

It's just neat. Very atmospheric, pleasant to dissociate to. Maidcore in general is an underrated subgenre

I don't know who either of these people are, but the guy is the spitting image of my ex from forever ago. And I'm not asian, but I was thin and blonde and had the style of the chick back then. I was an asshole to him. I don't think he knew I really loved him.
I hate everything about my past and myself. He's married now. At least I got my karma for it

I used to even kiss him on the cheek like that

Don't get me wrong, I'm over the relationship. But I could have done things differently. It just reminds me of a time when I was happy.

I had a playlist I would play on long car trips. The playlist is gone now, but when this song played, my mind would always take a deep breath and reset itself.

Final Fantasy XIV during the Endwalker expansion was the best gaming experience of my life. Although we still won through the power of friendship in the end the story went to some truly bleak places. At times it felt like the writers had delved into pessimistic literature for inspiration. I never played that game after because I felt like it absolutely peaked with Endwalker. This song plays in the final zone as the story is coming to an end.
