This song is called "the end" is written by an artist named Trey Traylor.
When this song first dropped and I saw the video I thought it was cute more than sad, as the video showed a bunch of old YouTube couples that had such a strong influence in the YouTube world when the era was really popular.
The first time watching the video I thought it was sweet and cute.
The second time watching the video I thought it was sad looking at the old memories and realizing how sad that actually is.
In life we meet people, they have such a strong impact on our lives, they leave, there are good endings, there are bad endings, etc.
Now they're just strangers with our deepest secrets.
With time, things change.
With time, people change.
That's just the way it is.
Things will always be this way.
The third time watching the video it was sad to me because the lyric's started to hit home.
"Knew we wasn't meant for eachother."
"But we'd rather pretend."
"But it's still sad to see us finally coming to an end."
Kind of reminded me of my relationship with my ex boyfriend. I actually watched the video with him and I kept playing it around him. I kept playing it by myself. I cried listening to it before bed. He played it around me.
It was like I was telling myself "You know what it is. You just have to accept it now."
It was like we were telling eachother we had our time, but our times up.
"And Lord it's hard to say goodbye."
"We saw forever. "
"Forever must had an error."
It's like we were saying goodbye.
We knew what we had was coming to an end.
Hell it been over, we just wanted to pretend.
After a while I just had the song on repeat it's my cleansing song.
It's my realization song.
It's my comfort song.
It made me realize this can go for friendships too.
I have some friendships.
Well all of my friends, are people I wanted to keep in my life forever.
I'm accepting now that, that won't be the case for all of them.
Maybe none of them.
That's okay.
I'll just have to be fine with turning the page.
This song is just about a new era to me.
I'm growing up.
My parents are getting older.
Three of my siblings started their own families already (they have children).
Friends are getting lovers, cars, jobs, homes, etc.
Favorite cousins have grown up as well and we have been grew apart years ago.
No sense in rekindling something that has been dead and gone.
I'll be getting a career of my own soon.
Sensing that me and my friends are growing apart.
It's just a lot that came into realization for me when I heard this song.
It made me realize a lot of stuff in my life have to die.
Not literally.
But it needs to come to an end.
I must turn the page if I want a different ending.
I must turn the page if I want a new beginning.
I can't do that if I can't let go.
I can't do that if I can't realize when it is The End. -W.O.S.
