This struck me so hard. I gave up on playing the violin because lessons were expensive and I can't afford a new one. Yet my father's still willing to get me proper one rather than settling for cheap ones. To learn art sadly is not cheap and to master art takes your whole life. I love how Mitski's songs always manage to use the right words to express the struggles of love and life.

i wish dreaming didnât cost so much. money, time, energy, everything. itâs so painful to know that once i grow up, i wonât have time to dream and i wonât have money to even think about dreaming. i can feel myself getting old even though iâm only 15 and still have my whole life in front of me

âwe will manage somehowâ reminds me so much of my mom. we already donât have very much money but 4 years ago when i said I wanted to play the violin, she was so excited and even bought me one for my birthday. and it wasnât just a cheap one either, she went to one of the best instrument shops in my town and bought it. there have been countless times where sheâs been behind in paying bills but she always made sure that my monthly violin bill was paid no matter what. then eventually she stopped paying for lessons because we just couldnât pay for it anymore and i felt like it was my fault because if it wasnât for me, she couldâve used the $30 a month for my violin on actually important things. i still tell her that iâll stop playing if she really canât afford it but she doesnât want me to at all but it just makes me feel so bad knowing that iâm part of the reason that we still donât have very much.

[Verse 1]
I can still smell the fire
Even though itâs long died out
The smoke still hangs in my hair
And on some quiet evenings it burns my eyes
[Chorus]
So darling, play your violin
I know itâs what you live for
Darling, play your violin
We will manage somehow
[Verse 2]
I once lived in the sea
Bring me to your ear, you can hear
The tide where I used to be
Though now Iâm but a shell
Oh babe
Donât say sorry
[Chorus]
Darling, play your violin
I know itâs what you live for
Darling, play your violin
We will manage somehow
[Post-Chorus]
Donât dare regret anything
Remember what youâre here for, you
Just play your violin
And we will manage somehow

i will never forget how my dad bought my art for $20 when i was in middle school. i always dreamt of being an artist and for one day, he let me be one. i've never felt that good about my art again and i've resigned myself to becoming a history teacher instead. despite letting my dreams go, i'll never forget my dad's kindness and how he's always believed in me.
