Lyrics:
There you were
You’re gonna make a scene
comparing yourself to the person you were at age 17
I put my suit on
and I tied my tie
I look like someone I don’t recognize
And it would be so much easier to love you
If you could only see yourself like me
And wouldn’t it hurt much less when you were lonely
If you could only see yourself like me?
I found a letter:
“Dear future me,
I promise I’ll take care of the person we’ll both be eventually
I’ll pick up painting,
Oh! Oh – and I’ll join the gym
I can’t shake the feeling that I’ll be happy by the time I’m him
And it would be so much easier to love you
If you could only see yourself like me
And wouldn’t it hurt much less when you were lonely
If you could only see yourself like me?
Please be disappointed in me
Isn’t it obvious I wasn’t who you think?
And it would be ..
So much easier to love you if you could only see yourself like me
And wouldn’t it hurt much less when you were lonely
If you could only see yourself like me?

“I think you lost all interest in this world. You were disappointed and discouraged, and lost interest in everything. So you abandoned your physical body. You went to a world apart and you’re living a different kind of life there. In a world inside you.”
Haruki Murakami, 1Q84
man your voice
😢
This song, relisting to it, made me cry, the song reminds me of myself, and all my current failures I’ve had this last year, I don’t even recognize myself anymore…
god dammit got me crying at fuckin balloon people
This is probably the song that hits me the hardest in your album. Always self-reflecting of my past self and just facing comparisons on where I was before inspired making music but always hitting roadblocks of self doubt and wasting too much time in my head about it. To current day where I am now working on projects getting them done feeling that spark, insperation and actually posting up this year and hopefully getting as consistant as I was once was back around 2017/early 2020, but always still reflecting to my past self who was inspired wondering what they would think of my current progress. Which I sometimes feel disappointment in a way but its to late to change the past and time to move on into the present with what I currently have.

3:14 is the best part❤
Pure emotion. Thank you Porter.
You would get Tomoyasu Murata from “circle game” wouldn’t you porter… WOULDN’T YOU?! you’re TRYING to play with my HEARTTTT and ya know what… IT’S WORKING!!! *breaks down crying*
The damn guitar chords are already so melancholic-ly comforting 🥲🥲🥲🥲
made me emotional
On my hardest times, my dog was my main motivation to wake up, go outside and do things, so this video hit me so hard. She was resting by my side while I was watching it and when it ended I hugged her and cried ❤
Growing up is hard, but your dreams don’t have to die. We are alive.
This made think a lot about Palestine
