Top Comments of this video!! :3
THIS SONG IS EXACTLY HOW IVE BEEN FEELING THE PAST WEEK, or atleast how i view the song!! it's right around my anniversary of being diagnosed with type one diabetes, and every year for a few months i get really depressed around that time but it keeps getting worse every year. i often just wish i was a kid again, and how sentimental i am doesn't help with that. but ROBIN TO THE RESCUE AGAIN!!! he somehow knows what i'm feeling. :,)

Lyrics <3
I'm trying to forgive myself for things I didn't do
For words I didn't say and things I didn't choose
Spending every day decomposing in my room
I'm not okay, but there's nothing I can do
I'm trying to love the person I was when I was born
Hating on a kid doesn't serve me anymore
Sylvanians making stories on the floor
And my mom and dad in love like it's 1994
Say you're comin' around, I need you lately
Everything's been getting me down
Yeah, the kids have grown up, I feel like I'm stuck
But I don't wanna catch up right now
I'm trying to get a better sense of what I'm worth
'Cause I've been on the fence and in the dirt
Taking it easy
But I forgot I have a job and nothing ever stops, so
Say you're comin' around, I need you lately
Everything's been getting me down
Yeah, the kids have grown up, I feel like I'm stuck
But I don't wanna catch up right now
Say you're comin' around, I need you lately
Everything's been getting me down
I broke a glass on the floor, it was the last straw, it's like I
Woke up on the wrong side of town
Say you're comin' around, I need you lately
Everything's been getting me down
I felt so much older than the kids 'round the corner
But I feel so much younger now
Overtook them, won't slow back down
Blame the child in a daisy crown

"I felt so much older than the kids round the corner, but I feel so much younger now." REALLY hit home with me! I had pretty abusive parents growing up and I was forced to mask my autism, and take a big part in household duties such as, cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the kids, cause I was the eldest "girl" but I'm trans and have been going through second puberty, cut off toxic family and have stopped masking almost full time (still do at work) I was always told I was so mature for my age. and I always had so many responsibilities, that i felt so much older than my peers, but now they all have kids, careers, and own houses, and I am intimidated by how together people my age are 😳 not that I want to be settling down like that rn tho

I don't know why everytime I listen to Cavetown, I feel seen and heard. Your songs make me feel validated. It has been years since I started supporting you and I still share your music to anyone who deserves it. Thank you for being there in some of my darkest days and coldest nights, Robin! I promise to support you, always ✨

1. What a BEAUTIFUL cinematography, scenarios and animations!
2. I relate to the song in a personal level (and almost every other song for Robbie)cause I've been feeling like this the past couple months,but Cavetown's music is a constan that always gives me comfort in my down moments,the lyrics are juts amazing ♡
3. The experience to trying to love the person that you were before being yourself is always hard,but it's really important and Robbie portraits that magnificently and also experience of growing up while feeling different from the other kids .
4. I'm sending tons of love from here to all people that was involved in the making of this wholesome song and all fans that like me enjoy the great job that this guy made!!
