Good Vibes
William Bonney Lyrics

Sad songs
Have been used up,
they've had enough
Of my
heartsick,
thrown-up bull-shit
Em I need this.

The lyrics of William Bonney's song "Good Vibes" seemingly delve into the idea of emotional exhaustion and the feeling of being drained of one's capacity to express sorrow. The lines 'All my sad songs have been used up, they've had enough' suggest that the artist feels that their melancholy songs are no longer capable of articulating the intensity of their emotions, figuratively speaking that these songs have already exhausted the sadness that they want to impart. This feeling of creative exhaustion is also emphasized in the lines 'Of my heartsick, thrown-up bull-shit', probably indicating how the artist feels about their past songs and their attempts to convey their emotions. The repetition of the phrase 'Em I need this' at the end of each verse may indicate that the artist is still holding onto their sorrow despite their exhaustion.
This song also touches upon the notion of self-preservation and the need to maintain a facade of happiness, which is suggested in the title of the song itself, "Good Vibes". The chorus concludes that despite the exhaustion and emotional drain, the artist still needs to hold onto their sorrows, which could be because they understand its place in their identity. Overall, this song is a resonant exploration of emotional fatigue and the pressure to maintain an unattainable image of happiness.

@DaarthPingas
still one of the best midwest emo albums ever. beautiful overdriven twinkly guitars floating on a nice bedrock of knockout sub bass
