Hello, music community! Today I will be doing a song by Lewis Capaldi "Before You Go". This is my first time posting in this community, and I'm so excited.
Most times we listen to songs without listening to the lyrics, and what the writer is trying to say. I do that too sometimes.
Since the very first day I heard this song, I fell in love with it. ( call it love at first sight))hahaha. I've listened to this song many times, but I didn't pay attention to the message.
Trying to kill one's self isn't the way out. Think about the people around you. I've heard the saying put yourself first, but in life we don't always have to come first.
This song was about his Aunt who committed suicide.
Hard times are part of life. You would never know what the other person is going through, because they wear a big smile every day, and laugh like there's no tomorrow, we feel we have the most problems and the other person doesn't.
we feel we're the only ones carrying the weight of the whole world on our shoulders, and suicide is the only way to let go of that burden.
No! Suicide isn't the way out.
No! You're not alone, they're people who care for you and would go to any length just to see you happy.
No! Everyone is going through a phase in their life, either good or bad
No! Good days don't last forever, nor the bad days
Yes, I know we wish we could live a happy life every day, but what is life without challenges? Problems?
Killing yourself isn't the way out.
Just know they're people who love and care for you no matter the storm. They might not show it or even say it, but people care.
We all Live to die, death is inevitable.
committing suicide, and cutting your life short isn't the solution. The world needs you, your beautiful smile, and your kind heart.
I know how hurtful it is to lose a loved one because I've lost some people who were so dear to me to the hands of death.
Sometimes you ask yourself if there was something you could've done to save that person.
if only I could read your mind and just know your problem
If only I could turn back the hands of time and force you to go out with me, maybe you wouldn't have died
If only I gave you all my attention
If only I checked up on you every minute
If only I knew you had a storm to weather
If only I kept the knife where you couldn't find it, maybe you wouldn't have killed yourself
Suicide is never an option
You matter✨
Lyrics
"Before You Go"
I fell by the wayside like everyone else
I hate you, I hate you, I hate you
But I was just kidding myself
Our every moment, I start to replace
'Cause now that they're gone
All I hear are the words that I need to say
When you hurt under the surface
Like troubled water running cold
Well, time can heal but this won't
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said to make your heart beat better?
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said to make it all stop hurting?
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go
Was never the right time whenever you called
Went little by little by little until there was nothing at all
Our every moment, I start to replay
But all I can think about is seeing that look on your face
When you hurt under the surface
Like troubled water running cold
Well, time can heal but this won't
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said to make your heart beat better?
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said to make it all stop hurting?
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go
Would we be better off by now
If I'd have let my walls come down
Maybe I guess we'll never know
You know
You know
Before you go
Was there something I could've said to make your heart beat better?
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said to make it all stop hurting?
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go
