Cough Syrup
Young the Giant Lyrics

Life's too short to even care at all oh
I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control
These fishes in the sea they're staring at me oh oh oh oh oh oh
A wet world aches for a beat of a drum, oh

If I could find a way to see this straight, I'd run away
To some fortune that I, I should have found by now
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down

Life's too short to even care at all oh
I'm coming up now coming up now out of the blue oh
These zombies in the park they're looking for my heart oh oh oh oh
A dark world aches for a splash of the sun oh oh

If I could find a way to see this straight, I'd run away
To some fortune that I, I should have found by now

And so I run to the things they said could restore me
Restore life the way it should be
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down

Life's too short to even care at all oh
I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control

If I could find a way to see this straight, I'd run away
To some fortune that I, I should have found by now

And so I run to the things they said could restore me
Restore life the way it should be
I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down

One more spoon of cough syrup now whoa
One more spoon of cough syrup now whoa

I love this song, and the glee cover is really well done (Darren Criss has the voice of an angel). I just feel so bad whenever I hear it; imagine how broken you would have to be to write a song like this. The lyrics are so powerful and I think the song is really well written.

@Matheus Augusta Inácio same. I will admit Dave wasn’t my favourite character, but I really loved the scene when Kurt visits him in the hospital. The entire episode is so sad but the bit when Kurt tells karofsky to imagine his future and what could be, it’s so moving and amazing. I also love when Kurt gives Quinn a piece of his mind, telling her that although what life handed her wasn’t great, she never stopped being loved, and Dave had nobody. It’s so sad.

I know you are probably annoyed by seeing these comments like, “who’s here from...” but I forgot about this original version. I heard it when I was watching Glee. It made me cry my eyes out. So here I am. And anyone who is reading this comment and is feeling worthless or not good enough, I love you, you have a purpose, keep living. Despite this world being kinda messed up, there are so many other amazing things in life that we still have yet to experience.

@Shlagg does it really matter if you know the person? One small act of kindness can take a person who is having a hard time a long way. A hug from a kind stranger can make you feel better because it would give you comfort that everything is okay and not everyone is your enemy.

I've just heard this song for the 100th time. I clearly remember how Cough syrup caught my attention in 2012 and when I rediscovered it I felt so good. But just now I've really understood what the lyrics really mean, or at last to me. Just when you feel the same way you can realize how much pain is hidden in the song. Sometimes I feel lost and my head seems bumping to me, my thoughts are not clear and my heart beats like a damn drum, and I ask myself what I've done in my life and how bad will my future be. People around me don't notice it, but I feel broken. Then I get out of the blue but I know that when the sun sets everything is gonna come back. Maybe you can also feel everybody is judging you, the heartless zombies that don't understand pain and bad deep thoughts.

Your destiny is to rise to whatever obstacle you face, because you can, b cause you’re able. You are powerful, make no mistake, and it’s on you to direct and focus that power. You have free will, yours alone is the decision, every single time - to be productive or to waste time. The more productive decisions you make, the more you make of whatever situation you’re in.

I remember I had listened to this song years ago at a cafeteria I was, I wanted to find it but I couldn’t. I didn’t remember lyrics to search on since it was too crowded for me to hear. And after years, 3 days ago I finally found it. It happened the day I learnt a close friend of mine was diagnosed with cancer, and the "life’s too short to even care at all” hits me every single time.
Cause life is too short to care about what people will say about you, or to say that you will do something tomorrow or the day after tomorrow because you’re afraid of doing it now.
Life is too short and is not for granted. Live your lives, tell those people you like that you like them and want them to be with you, raise your voice for something unfair to you or someone else, go that trip you always wanted to, go and do all those things you want to.
Life’s too short.

Cough syrup (DXM) changed my life. I used to hate life and think it was meaningless. After I chugged one bottle of cough syrup, it made me realize that life exists and that’s all the matters. Why it exists isn’t the issue. We have consciousness and that’s a very beautiful thing. Thank you cough syrup, you were a great teacher.

Going back to this song brings so much memories. Frankly speaking, this has welcomed me as to how beautiful alt/indie is eight years ago.

Yes, there are better songs out there, and I've built beautiful memories with them as well. But that journey of discovery would be pretty much non-existent had I not listen to this. 💙

As soon as I remember the melody Nostalgia hits me so hard, it flows through my veins, all the memories, every tiny detail, even the smell of the certain time.. It just comes clearly to my eyes. I can’t describe how beautiful feeling then again sad, since those are now very distant memories, no way of reliving it.

Valentina Labonte

Same very well put....🌌😔

Life is about making memories. It's not about reliving them, but having the opportunity to make them and appreciate them in the future.

I know exactly what you're talking about. A song brings everything back to me often. Let the knowledge that you're making new memories just like those you miss so much right now whether you know it or not. Even if the songs bring everything back from a time that was dark for me, I still get those very feelings you're describing. We're making new ones right now.

This is life. Your entire moments go by never to return. Wait till you have children. They grow up never to be children ever again. Oh the sadness of it.

It’s funny how a few years back I was singing along to this song without knowing what it meant. Then I went trough some tough times, almost ended my life.
And now to come back and have all those memories and feelings, it’s weird.

The memories of singing this when I was like 8/9 years old, then the periods when things went down, and now when I’m 14 to understand those lyrics I had sung along with those years ago. It’s a really emotional and powerful song.

I don't even know what to call it, but this song is the type of life I want to live, is what I want to spend my youth on. Coffee and concerts, pools and paint, sun and singing. This song makes me realize that I want to go to the top of a high building, throw my head back, spread my arms out, and scream at the flying airplanes that look like stars in the night. I want that 80s movie life.
