Sleeping In
Nevertheless
Sleeping In (this song is worth awesome even if only for the first line.)
“Everything is more beautiful because we’re doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.”
—The Iliad, Homer
“I’ve said it before, but, it turned out that “I’m not sad anymore” wasn’t as much a victory speech as it was a battle cry. If you deal with internal issues— depression, anxiety, etc, you’re going to deal with them your entire life. The war will never be over. No matter how good things are, there will always be solitary nights you spend in your bedroom or car or in a party full of your closest friends when it feels like the walls are caving in. The idea behind The Upsides wasn’t winning the war, it was about the idea that you should never stop fighting and I didn’t know that when I wrote the record.”
—Dan “Soupy” Campbell
“But if I bleed tonight
Then will it be alright?” —Bleed, Jill Parr
Then will it be alright?” —Bleed, Jill Parr
