Sometimes there’s nothing that can be said or done. I think now is one of those times…again. Life hits you like a bolt of lightning, what are you supposed to do, huh?
I know you’ve got the best intentions
Just trying to find the right words to say
I promise, I’ve already learned my lesson
But right now, I wanna be not okay… I’m so tired, sitting here waiting
If I hear one more “Just be patient”
It’s always gonna stay the same… So let me just give up
So let me just let go
If this isn’t good for me
Well, I don’t wanna know
Let me just stop trying
Let me just stop fighting
I don’t want your good advice or reasons why I’m alright…
You don’t know what it’s like
You don’t know what it’s like
Can’t stop these feet from sinking
And it’s starting to show on me
You’re staring while I’m blinking
But just don’t tell me what you see… I’m so over all this bad luck
Hearing one more keep your head up
Is it ever gonna change?…
So let me just give up
So let me just let go
If this isn’t good for me
Well, I don’t wanna know
Let me just stop trying
Let me just stop fighting
I don’t want your good advice or reasons why I’m alright… You don’t know what it’s like
Yeah, you don’t know what it’s like…
Don’t look at me like that
Just like you understand
Don’t try to pull me back…
Let me just give up
Let me just let go
If this isn’t good for me
Well, I don’t wanna know
Let me just stop trying
Let me just stop fighting
I don’t want your good advice or reasons why I’m alright…
You don’t know what it’s like
Yeah, you don’t know what it’s like
You don’t know, you don’t know
You don’t know
Yeah, you don’t know what it’s like
You don’t know what it’s like
Yeah, You don’t know, you don’t know
You don’t know what it’s like
Yeah, you don’t know what it’s like
Good song to write to.

Beautiful, with a powerful message, Eleanor. Sometimes we need the space and time to be not okay, and that’s perfectly okay. A paradox, just like all of life. Love this artist and song. 💙
