Jay Brannan - Drowning

[JessRamone]

Every moments when my heart is broken up, this song is perfect... Thanks Jay

[HeathPsycho]

It's three years later and I still know the lyrics. This song is just amazing.

[thebeautifulpieppe]

It makes me want to hug somebody... but I'm currently alone

[Crimsonofregret]

I heard this song thanks to a story I was reading and damn if this song doesn't bring up memories. So melancholy, yet so beautiful.

[saviannahw]

yes sometimes cutting is for attention...but when you start to ignore them because you dont take it seriously...it always leads to something worse

[SteampunkMercenary]

Somebody give him a hug! T_T

[TaylerxRae]

This is the song that got me through some of the toughest times of my life. A friend of mine showed me this song 5 or 6 years ago, and this song came at such a perfect time. Evereytime I hit rock bottom in my depression, this song let me know that I wasn't the only one.

This just goes to show that even the most amazing people in the world have issues... And Jay Brannan definitely is one of the most amazing people in the world<3

[floradummy098]

[heyworldlookatmenow]

i <3 this song so much.... it is literally my life story. Makes me cry everytime

[queersomething]

ultimate depressing song.

[TheLegendAlixJay]

This is beautiful. 3 People don't know what good music and lyrics are.

[100naughty]

this song reminds me of my best friend. in how this song would describe her feelings. to be scare to see the scars. to know that if i didnt do anything soon she will keep on doing it. To the point that she would never servive again. if someone is ever going thrugh this get help for that person and be compasionate and understanding. because sometimes all they need is someone to help them fight there demons. to have someone to say i am here.

[5hard5talker]

. . . hmmm I am wondering how he got the script to my life. . . heh

[allychica18]

id cut myself to this song...

[chloweful]

@allychica18 You really shouldn't go telling people that.

[killajh21]

@chloweful Thats what cutters do is tell ppl that, cause its for attention. allychica wasnt gettin the desperate attention so now they tryin to get it on youtube rofl give urself a slice for me ;)

[chloweful]

@killajh21 lol umm no it really isn't for attention? but you can say that for anyone and for anything, complaining if for 'attention' crying is for 'attention' or thinking your fat is 'for attention' leaving pointless hateful comments is for 'attention' entering in a talent show is for 'attention.' works for everything dude your just too ignorant to see it.

[BleedingAngel10550]

@killajh21 In some cases yes, The do it for attention but no not every one some people have just an adiction to the pain of it some just feel its the only way to be good enough to live. So please do not post your judgemental ideas.

<3,

S.n.

[Maggoos0hideaway]

@killajh21 I don't really want to get into this but I feel like you need to understand, not all cutters do this for attention, in fact most don't. It's called Self-Mutilation, it is an actual diagnosed mental issue, it stems off of extreme depression and call kill people. Please don't be ignorant. Not everything is something to be played off or viewed as people seeking "attention."  Some people posting on here that they are cutting isn't to get attention, maybe, just maybe, they want some help.

[killajh21]

@Maggoos0hideaway LOL crying for help on youtube??? yah mmk thats the place to do it, where trolls like me hang out, therapy i where the help is kid

[DoodleTaffy]

I think this is my song for today! Sucks, but it's true, althought thankfullly I'm not that depressed today, just pissed off & annoyed w/life & full of regrets.

[CarolynnLenette]

[zannadontfan]

[Dizzy4lyfe6]

im not goin to lie i jus cried my eyes out listin to things im in a tough spot in my life wear the chic i was engaged to left me and my kids mother wont let me see my kid i no nobody wants to hear my probs but thought id say i feel this song hit my soul really hard...if anybody know's anymore song like this plz let me no asap

[RainFlame]

@toastforkdspoon That was something worth while to say. they weren't trying to be a dick. There is beauty as well as horror in this world. Some people are blind, and thats tragic, some people feel like this song says, but that doesn't mean thats all there is. try and look past how you feel, you might see something you like.

and i'm sorry if you feel this songs emotion, its a terrible feeling, I DO know that.

[Gurgi1990]

The intro makes me think of the Joni Mitchell song "rainy night house"

[azullobo6]

is this song bout your mom or dad not aprroving of somthing you are or like?

[BloodySharp]

[arrancarninja]

I can't tell you how many times I felt like that. I still feel like that alot. I use to be do exactly that. I was bad about cutting myself. But now I'm over it. I love this song because I know what he's feeling.

[savether]

[rickT5555]

Excellent question.........beautiful song.

[eyes41nonly]

Is there a piano score for this track? It's so beautiful.

[YouWontLikeMe]

So sad.

So beautiful.

I really love the lyrics <3

[dgyuengling]

tradigy always comes in the most beautiful of packages......

[theforeman118]

that's not true at all. real life tragedy comes in the harshest way imagineable, rarely having any beauty.

god, what are you, 12?

[dgyuengling]

then you abviously don't see the bueaty of every day life and in every day life... if you can't see how unique and bueatiful each moment is you're blind... look deeper

[Bullring1]

yeah but i dont go "oh my 17 year old relative with so much potential is dead........how beautiful'

it was a nice shot at trying to be deep. but seriously...

...fail.

[toastforkdspoon]

@dgyuengling you dick, you have no fucking idea. if you dont have anything worthwhile to say then dont fucking say anything. nob

[Raulitodu13]

J'adooooooooooooore

[breccu1]
