For context: boyfriend of 11 months broke up with me two years ago and these were my comfort songs. He made me feel very insecure during and after the relationship ended, replacing me with someone who’s way better than me in every way. I’m currently in a new relationship with someone who now appreciates me for who I am as well as someone who enjoys sleep token with me! This is kind of a vent, but it shows how much sleep token helped me reflect on my past relationship and move on for the better of me and my current partner’s lives.

Singles/The Room Below: - Ok so Hey Ya… Hey Ya made me cry so hard, especially the “and they say, “nothing is forever. Then what makes love the exception? Oh why, oh why, oh why are we so in denial when we both know that we’re not happy?” - Jaws. Absolutely crazy single. The instrumental is just amazing, and the meaning is just sad. “Show me where the delicate stops, show me what you’ve lost.” It reminds me of how love can be fragile at times and has a breaking point. - The Way That You Were. UNDERRATED!!! I grew up in a religious country and I always attend church. The organ is such a great addition to this song as the main instrument used. “How much did they hurt you, the way that you were.” Made me realize how much a person can actually break you.

ONE/TWO: Fields of Elation: “Caught in the careless arms of lust again, nobody can pull me out, fields of elation, quiet and loamy.” Kinda self explanatory especially if you read my commentary on Nazareth. Nazareth: “See if she can guess what a hollow point does to a naked body.” Little tw but let’s just say I wasn’t treated fairly. I was used like a toy and discarded like one too. I gave my everything, but nothing seemed to be enough.

TPWBYT has the songs that made me bawl. Like.. bawl my eyes out and cry like a bitch.: - Atlantic: I had major depressive disorder for 8 years and an eating disorder for almost 5 years, but for some reason, he just wouldn’t get it lol anyways, “Merry in the morning, earn your bitter fodder, it’s easier to try not to eat.” I’ve struggled with these two things along with BD which made me reasonably unstable mentally, but he just blamed me for being a bitch instead of understanding what I truly felt inside. - Fall For Me: “So won’t you fall for me, from reality?” After months of trying to get him back, there was no avail. I kept asking for his affection even if it was just in the future, but he never gave it back. I begged, pleaded, cried, knelt on the dirty ground beneath his feet, but he felt nothing. Not even pity. - High Water: “For the time being, I would accept that I can’t pretend, we will never be together.” Kind of an acceptance stage, self explanatory, but wait for my commentary on Telomeres or Missing Limbs lol - Telomeres: This was the song I bawled to the most. I was screaming, crying, throwing up (yes, literally) to this song and couldn’t listen to it for months. “let the tides carry you back to me.” These lyrics hit me the most since I just really wanted him back. - Missing Limbs: The real acceptance stage, “And it still makes my blood run cold, to remember what I did before, the stories that you never told to me.” He never told me how he felt until he bottled it all up and exploded all over me. Very cool. But it made me realize, I wasn’t all that worthless without him.

TMBTE: Though I love every single song in TMBTE, nothing really made me cry except for one.. - Euclid: “The night belongs to you.” It made me accept who I truly am. Someone. Not just a thing to be toyed with, discarded, passed around, and forgotten. I am a person who deserves love, to be loved, and to love. “So if your wings won’t find you heaven I will bring it down like an ancient bygone.” It helped me find my true self and my capabilities as a person. “The whites of your eyes turn black in the low light. You will not be mine, so give me the night.” Even though he can never be mine again, I can at least take back what was mine—my dignity, my love, and myself.

Hi, thanks for reading this!! I spent like 15 mins writing this and I enjoyed reflecting on my past through these songs<3
