Who else is chilling while imagining a whole different life, full of parties and good times instead of being stuck at home cuz of strict parents
Edit: Parties can be fun and most of the time they are. But you gotta ask yourself, do you really want to party because you want to? Or because you feel like you have to? Do you only want to party because you feel left out? The truth is, working on yourself, having close relationships, having purpose in life, and getting closer with your "strict parents", is way more fun, and way more meaningful than a party. You should still party and have fun, but some things are worth more than others. You only got one shot at this life, don't waste it ✌

I hope I’m not alone but this song gives me more of a sad or melancholic feeling instead of a happy, hopeful and joyful vibe. It gives me the feeling like I missed so much fun and adventure in my life. I’m still a teenager but this song makes me feel old and my heart kind of squeezes and hurts thinking about all those missed opportunities I had to party, have fun or even just make friends. I’m standing here with no friends so where did I go wrong. I dunno, I feel weird while the song plays it feels like I watch a show, movie or series and I connect with all the characters, I cry with them, I laugh with just as if I’m friends with all of them, but as soon the song ends it’s like all those memories flash before me but I wasn’t there, I’m not included in that “fun”. I guess I just feel lonely and hate my life rn but I guess it will get better :)
Edit (12/05/2022): I want to thank everyone who commented nice and encouraging words. I honestly didn’t think so many would feel the same, similar or even understand those weird feelings. It’s been a year and my mental health had its ups and downs. I’m officially not a teenager anymore since a few months lol. Im also in Uni since last year, but only because I didn’t know what to do after one year after high school. I’m also currently looking for a therapist, because I’ve just gotten more emotional since a few months and I’ve neglected my physical and mental health to the point where I don’t do anything all day but lie in bed. But I’m really hopeful to get better. I know it will get better!! Just cleaning my room and texting one or two distant friends gives me a spark of hope. Thanks again for you all reading my gibberish comment about my silent storm of feelings. I really read every comment. I love you all and feel virtually hugged if you need one❣️❣️
@BoujeeIzzy
your not alone, I feel the same way
@-AAA-147
