Youth
Daughter Lyrics
Shadows settle on the place that you left
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time
From the perfect start to the finish line
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong
We are the reckless, we are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone
We're setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting pictures from a flood that wrecked our home
It was a flood that wrecked this home
And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it
Well, I've lost it all, I'm just a silhouette
I'm a lifeless face that you'll soon forget
And my eyes are damp from the words you left
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone
Setting fire to our insides for fun
To distract our hearts from ever missing them
But I'm forever missing him
And you caused it
And you caused it
And you caused it

Dear person whoever reads this,
Hey, you, yes, I am talking right to you. I hope you will see yourself with the eyes I see you one day, because I can tell you have some awesome music taste :) Youāre such a beautiful human being and worth and enough. I hope you know that you do only need yourself to be happy, I know society build up the standard that whenever youāre alone youāre not living a happy live. But in fact that is not true, if you start to realize that you actually deserve all the good things happening to you, you will treat yourself a lot nicer. I hope you let yourself rest, donāt beat yourself up over past mistakes, over regret, and over everything your mind wants to destroy you. I wish I could remove all those demons inside of your head because you deserve to feel happy. If you ever feel lonely then watch the sky, because you know, someone, at the same time is watching the sky too, maybe feeling the same way..I am glad you exist and I hope you wonāt ever remove your own spot in this world, maybe you donāt feel like you belong here but, Angel, then build your home here. I donāt want you to leave this world unhappy. I want you to live every little second, I want you to feel alive, I donāt want you to see yourself just existing. You deserve it. Whatever happened, itās not your fault, the demons in your head recognize that you have a beautiful heart, they want to take it because they have never seen such beautiful heart as yours, so why let them win over you? . Youāre not selfish for isolating yourself, but you deserve to talk to someone. If youāre reading this than please never forget to breath and smile.
Donāt live up to other standards! Itās your story and not theirs.
Life for those who couldnāt, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like thereās no other, hug like its your last one.
I love you and send you hugs.
Youāre so strong, youāre still here, and I am proud of you.
YOU ARE NOT USELESS. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE WORTH IT. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE LOVED. READ THAT AGAIN.
I AM GLAD YOU EXIST. READ THAT AGAIN.
YOU ARE NOT A PROBLEM. YOU ARE HUMAN AND YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID. READ THAT AGAIN.
Youāre not a burden to anyone, donāt be afraid to talk, to use your voice.
Youāre beautiful inside out.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. READ THAT AGAIN.
I WISH I COULD HUGH YOU RIGHT NOW, SO A VIRTUAL HUG WILL DO.
It hurts me to see youāre in pain :( you deserve so much man, donāt let your emotions control you. Donāt let them get the best of you.
I love u I love u I love u I love u I love u please donāt go.
I am sorry that no one is hearing you, I am sorry no one is noticing that you have lost yourself. I wish I could take your pain away, it hurts me to see the pain in your eyes. I love you trough my words and I mean it. I just want you to stay, hold on a little longer okay? Please? For me.??
I hope you have an awesome day/ morning/ evening/ night.
If itās night for you, go to sleep, I know itās hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, donāt let them fight you.
If itās day for you, donāt start it by such sad music, I know itās impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits.
If itās evening for you, youāre probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know itās okay to feel the way you feel. You donāt need to be scared, of course youāre overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldnāt? But itās important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that youāre stronger than you think, I know you will make it :)
All I want for you is to stay and feel alive.
Now wipe those tears away and smile for me, you really donāt know much a smile can brighten someoneās day, do you? I hope one day yours will become a genuine one where you donāt need to fake it anymore, because I canāt say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. Youāre worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
I need you here with me :).
Remember crying is not weakness, let it out as much as you can but donāt let the emotion control you by giving up. Itās okay, youāre here, youāre safe, you can let it out.
Did anyone asked you, how you are feeling today? If not, how are you really? I donāt think youāre doing good, but you will feel good at one point. Donāt give yourself up.
And anyone who gets to be with you, doesnāt know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :).
Enough with beating up yourself for today, okay?!
- The stranger that cares about you more than anything.
I hope this is enough for you to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. I hope you can stay.
I hope you will remember my words- becho :)
Until tomorrow, my friend :)

Lyrics for "Youth" by Daughter
⢠Vocals Performed by: Daughter
Shadows settle on the place, that you left.
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness.
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time.
From the perfect start to the finish line.
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones.
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs.
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong.
We are the reckless,
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there.
And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones.
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone.
We're setting fire to our insides for fun.
Collecting pictures from a flood that wrecked our home,
It was a flood that wrecked this home.
And you caused it,
And you caused it,
And you caused it
Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silhouette,
I'm a lifeless face that you'll soon forget,
My eyes are damp from the words you left,
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one,
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone.
Setting fire to our insides for fun,
To distract our hearts from ever missing them.
But I'm forever missing him.
And you caused it,
And you caused it,
And you caused it
Cow Verse
101 reasons to stay alive.
It's not worth the regret. Either by yourself if you failed or just simply left scars, or the regret everyone else feels by not doing enough to help you.
It does get better. Believe it or not it will eventually get better. Sometimes you have to go through the storm to get to the rainbow.
There's so much you would miss out on doing.
There is always a reason to live. It might not be clear right now, but it is always there.
So many people care, and it would hurt them if you hurt yourself.
You ARE worth it. Don't let anyone, especially yourself, tell you otherwise.
You are amazing.
A time will come, once you've battled the toughest times of your life and are in ease once again, where you will be so glad that you decided to keep on living. You will emerge stronger from this all, and won't regret your choice to carry on with life. Because things always get better.
What about all the things you've always wanted to do? What about the things you've planned, but never got around to doing? You can't do them when you're dead.
I love you. Even if only one person loves you, that's still a reason to stay alive.
You won't be able to listen to music if you die.
Killing yourself is never worth it. You'll hurt both yourself and all the people you care about.
There are so many people that would miss you, including me.
You're preventing a future generation, YOUR KIDS, from even being born.
How do you think your family would feel? Would it improve their lives if you died?
You're gorgeous, amazing, and to someone you are perfect.
Think about your favourite music artist, you'll never hear their voice again...
You'll never have the feeling of walking into a warm building on a cold day
Listening to incredibly loud music
Being alive is just really good.
Not being alive is really bad.
Finding your soulmate.
Red pandas
Going to diners at three in the morning.
Really soft pillows.
Eating pizza in New York City.
Proving people wrong with your success.
Watching the jerks that doubted you fail at life.
Seeing someone trip over a garbage can.
Being able to help other people.
Bonfires.
Sitting on rooftops.
Seeing every single country in the world.
Going on roadtrips.
You might win the lottery someday.
Listening to music on a record player.
Going to the top of the Eiffel Tower.
Taking really cool pictures.
Literally meeting thousands of new people.
Hearing crazy stories.
Telling crazy stories.
Eating ice cream on a hot day.
More Harry Potter books could come out, you never know.
Travelling to another planet someday.
Having an underwater house.
Randomly running into your hero on the street.
Having your own room at a fancy hotel.
Trampolines.
Think about your favourite movie, you'll never watch it again.
Think about the feeling of laughing out loud in a public place because your best friend has just sent you an inside joke,
Your survival will make the world better, even if it's for just one person or 20 or 100 or more.
People do care.
Treehouses
Hanging out with your soul mate in a treehouse
Snorting when you laugh and not caring who sees
I don't even know you and I love you.
I don't even know you and I care about you.
Because nobody is going to be like you ever, so embrace your uniqueness!
You won't be here to experience the first cat world emperor.
WHAT ABOUT FOOD?! YOU'LL MISS CHOCOLATE AND ALL THE OTHER NOM THINGS!
Starbucks.
Hugs.
Stargazing.
You have a purpose, and it's up to you to find out what it is.
You've changed somebody's life.
Now you could change the world.
You will meet the person that's perfect for you.
No matter how much or how little, you have your life ahead of you.
You have the chance to save somebody's life.
If you end your life, you're stopping yourself from achieving great things.
Making snow angels.
Making snowmen.
Snowball fights.
Life is what you make of it.
Everybody has a talent.
Laughing until you cry.
Having the ability to be sad means you have the ability to be happy.
The world would not be the same if you didn't exist.
Its possible to turn frowns, upside down
Be yourself, don't take anyone's shit, and never let them take you alive.
Heroes are ordinary people who make themselves extraordinary. Be your own hero.
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.
One day your smile will be real.
Having a really hot, relaxing bath after a stressful day.
Lying on grass and laughing at the clouds.
Getting completely smashed with your best friends.
Eating crazy food.
Staying up all night watching your favourite films with a loved one.
Sleeping in all day.
Creating something you're proud of.
You can look back on yourself 70 years later and being proud you didn't commit
Being able to meet your Internet friends.
Tea / Coffee / Hot Chocolate
The new season of Sherlock
Cuddling under the stars.
Being stupid in public because you just can.
If you are reading this then you are alive! Is there any more reason to smile?
being able to hug that one person you havent seen in years
People care enough about you and your future to come up with 100 reasons for you not to do this.
But, the final and most important one is, just, being able to experience life. Because even if your life doesn't seem so great right now, literally anything could happen
