[zezeNice]

[xmay_mayx]

if anyone is wondering, the japanese in the chorus (胸がはち切れそうで) is pronounced as “Mune ga hachikire-sōde” and means “my chest seems like it is going to burst” ♡

"and i was so young when I behaved 25 yet now i found I've grown into a tall child"

[soupiaaa]

“And I was so young when I behaved twenty five, yet now I find I’ve grown into a tall child”
This is on of the most relatable lyrics I’ve heard in a long time

[violets.and.violets]

The Japanese means “My heart is going to burst”

[Loonafart]

I hate when people say I love you because they won't mean it forever, but at the same time I love hearing it every once in a while.

[danna]

I love the hidden symbolism in this song
"The night breeze carries, something sweet. A peach tree"
A peach tree symbolizes longevity meaning long and healthy life.
This song is about the person being afraid of being loved.
"Please hurry leave me I can't breathe please don't say you love me. My heart is about to burst"
I love Mitski's songwriting so much could talk about this for hours

“please don’t say you love me” hits so hard. i’ve always struggled with a crippling low self esteem, and i’ve always had a people-pleasing complex. i’m always trying to please people for validation but whenever anyone says they love me or appreciate me i want to push them away. i want someone to love me but i feel guilty receiving love because i feel i’m not worthy. it’s a constant push and pull.

edit: i got into typology a bit ago and looking back on this comment, i realize it’s a dead giveaway that i’m an insecure enneagram 2

[starrysoups]

i wonder if mitski is okay . imagine what she had to go through to make music like this

[MC.]

"And I don't wanna go home yet, let me walk to the top of the big night sky" Is definitely my favourite line.

[yuiiyamada]

This is such a comfort song, especially the part that’s like “ so please hurry, leave me, I can’t breathe, please don’t say you love me” and it hurts so much bc I know they will all leave soon. They’re slowly getting bored of me. And I’m not ready. I should stop getting attached to people all together. I hate it when people say they care and that they love me but they never do. I’ll never believe anyone loves me.

[coolsaige]

for anyone wondering how to pronounce “胸がはち切れそうで”
it’s “Mune ga hachikire-sōde”
have fun singing along 😊

[destinyleak]

listening to this for the first time guys!

"Please hurry leave me I can't breathe, please don't say you love me"
As someone who's been abandoned a lot and had to burn bridges with people I still love, that hits home because thanks to my past I'm scared of connecting with people and getting close to them, expecting them to just leave anyway. It hurts worst if they say they love me while they leave.

Just recently got diagnosed with Avoidant Personality Disorder and I went back to listen this song. The lyrics “So please hurry leave me. I can’t breathe. please don’t say you love me.” relates to me so much because I just feel like I don’t deserve love. I hate how I look, I feel ugly and I just hate myself. So I’m hopeful no one begins to fall in love with me because I WILL push them away and I don’t want to hurt them. I just can’t help but push people away and it’s hard to stop.

it hurts so much when you were forced to mature and "act" like a woman when you were so young. this song is so important to me, makes me cry about the childhood i never got to have :/

[god-rjwf]

1:00 GET SOME REST TALL CHILD YOU CAN’T KEEP BURNING THE CANDLE AT BOTH ENDS

[אפיהנמר-רז]

Everyone always ask:”oh their listening to mitski I hope their ok” and never “I wonder if mitski is ok”

[katball]

" One word from you and I would jump off of this ledge I'm on baby "
All her songs are so soulful and relatable. I love it and hate it

[pruriient]

currently balling my eyes out, listening to this for the first time, and knowing nobody gives a shit about me and im nobodys first option, i treat everyone as a close friend and im just their side character :(
