Me all the time

Lyrics I always found it funny That your favorite part of a movie Was trying to guess the end before I could I should have seen it coming But I got so lost in the story It was over long before I understood And I can't stop your storm from rollin' in And wrecking things But shelter me until it's through And all this time you've had a gentle way of holding me So could you please release me that way too 'Cause it's okay to say goodbye Some things live, but all things die And I can let go of all of the things I hoped we'd be And I don't need the reasons why 'Cause we both know how hard wе tried If coming apart and breaking my heart is what you need Brеak it carefully, break it carefully Well don't you think it's funny? That I'm asking you for your mercy After all the nights you asked me for a dance I guess I'm kinda lucky That we got so close to the real thing When so many never even get the chance And I can't stop your storm from rollin' in And wrecking things But shelter me until it's through And all this time you've had a gentle way of holding me So could you please release me that way too? 'Cause it's okay to say goodbye Some things live, but all things die And I can let go of all of the things I hoped we'd be And I don't need the reasons why 'Cause we both know how hard we tried If coming apart and breaking my heart is what you need Break it carefully I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly Oh, I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly If coming apart and breaking my heart is what you need Break it carefully, break it carefully

"I could leave all this behind me if I could remember you kindly." 3:32 I have never before seen this written down or said aloud, but it is the answer to a riddle I have wrestled with my whole life. Thank you, Ben Platt.

I was in love with my best friend, and we got engaged, and spent two thirds of our lives together, and having pushed so far into life together... I can say that this hits me in a different way. When we buried him, the storms that came were strong, and unknown. Situations and words spoken that you can't see coming until they're here and you're feeling them inside, and no one else knows the "this" but you. There are no words for what I went through, what we went through, or what I have yet to go through - but this is very close - so thank you for this. It's a cold pain that we will all know in our lives. To let go and feel a cold wind blow. In life - always a season - I have known them all. Somethings live and somethings die. Thank you.

The problem with breakup songs when you're the one who walked away is that you hear it and think, damn, this would be perfect for her to listen to. I'm a broken person, too broken for a person like you, MJ and I'm sorry. I have to heal and I have to do it on my own before I hurt anyone, again. I know that, now.

A month ago, my boyfriend and I got into our first big fight after 2.5 years. He was gone for a day. I heard this song for the first time that day and it hit hard. We’ve been struggling for most of the pandemic, so I’ve absolutely entertained the possibility that it wouldn’t work… I envisioned we would decide we were too different and couldn’t make it work, we would cry a lot, and we would go our separate ways. But when he came back the next day, we had a really good talk. I played him Grow As You Go. He cried. I cried. There has been a lot more positive in our lives since then. Things seemed to be looking up. Then today I went to run a quick errand and when I came back, he was gone. I was very concerned. He showed up about an hour later, sweaty and panting. He took my hands and told me he’d been moving things into a new apartment. A new apartment he got without telling me the night we had our big fight. And then led me on in ignorance for a month while he signed a lease and accumulated new things for his new apartment. Breakups are always sad, but I never envisioned being hurt like this.

I am... so sorry. It's awful that people can be so cruel. Whenever things like this happen to me, I always seem to find myself in music, in some way, shape, and form. Whether that be writing, singing, playing, or even just listening, the freedom (for me) that comes with music will always more than any other freedom. Life is beautiful, sweets. You just have to find the right people to stay in it. You'll love, you'll lose, but you WILL live, and you will find those people. It may take a while to get over the feelings you're feeling right now, and that's understandable, and perfectly okay. Find someone that is going to tell you everything, no matter the seriousness. Find someone that respects the way you feel, and (metaphorically speaking) someone whose hands are a perfect fit for your heart. That's very important, and there is someone out there like that, waiting for someone exactly like you. You will get through this. When you get back to dating, you're not going to want to. You're going to be scared because you don't want to get hurt like this again, and that's okay. "No pain, no gain" is a very real concept. You will emerge from this as a better, kinder, and stronger woman. Until you're ready to date again, focus on you for a bit. Character development is key! You are loved, and you have people to turn to who will listen, and welcome you with open arms. Go to them if you need to talk to someone. You're going to get through this, I promise. ❤‍🩹

I may not know you but I’m rooting for you to get past this in positivity. You are loved. Lift your head up you marvellous stranger!!!❤️‍🩹💕

Rest in peace to the lost lovers and friends ❤️

I went through a horrific break up last year. I’m also a covid icu nurse and I’ve put over 300 people in body bags since last December. I work for a crisis staffing company so we go into the worst scenarios. I’m actually packing to go to Mississippi for 4 weeks to work. I’ve never been scared to go to work before. Part of me is scared I’ll never come back one day from an assignment. So I’ve been pretty emotional lately. I’ve been doing a lot of yoga and I hired a life coach to help me get through the next 4 weeks. But with the breakup and now seeing so many younger people die , and not seeing an end to this. it’s taking its toll on me. So I had to put off listening to this new album. I had a feeling it would stir my emotions up. I decided tonight while I packed was the night. I was all good until this track. Lol. Jesus Christmas , just when I think he cannot get more talented. He proves me wrong. These lyrics triggered wounds I thought I healed. I had to sit on the floor to finish listening. “ I can't stop your stone from rolling in.. And wrecking things But shelter me until it's through And all this time you've had a gentle way of holding me So could you please release me that way too?” “I could leave all this behind me If I could remember you kindly” I’m speechless. This is not even a song. It’s medicine. Medicine that will make many of us feel the pain people have caused us. I’m also a personal trainer. So I see it all the time. Hurt people bury the pain with sugar , alcohol , drugs and hook ups. Constantly numbing themselves. And if they don’t snap out of it. It kills them. They completely self destruct themselves because feeling the pain is just too much. I see in the eyes on my patients all the time. Unresolved fear and pain I had a patient weeks ago grab my hand as she was going to go out to hospice. She grabbed my hand one morning and said “ Bill …. Did you ever see the movie gremlins “. I replied with “ yes “. She then says “ what happens when a gremlin sees sunlight ?” I replied with “ they died “ She then said “. Honey I can see that pain all over your face. He really did a number on you … ( yes she said he ) I’m sorry you are hurting so much. please don’t go through your life like that. Feel the pain. Cry. Put it in the sunlight ….. “ I started sobbing at work. I was like great. My masculine charade here is shattered. She then said “ life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer you get to the end. The faster it gets. We laughed. I thought I had worked through most of it but after listening to this track. I guess not. I seriously doubt Ben reads these. But if there is a chance you do … Ben I knew this album would be great but it’s way more than I expected. It truly is a piece of art. The Imogen Heap King Of The World Intro, Interlude and outright is brilliant. It gives the album a great vibe. You’re not following anyone’s path. You’re creating your own That is what art should be. You have been labeled in the industry as “ Broadway “ and type casted as such. That’s not a bad thing. But so many get stuck in a pigeon holed. In a time where many artists focus on a hit single then fill the album with crap b sides… You really went above and beyond here and created something cathartic. If you’re a. Fan , you have to listen to the album from start to finish. If you don’t. That s like going to see a Van Gogh showing and looking at one painting and leaving. Bought VIP seats in orlando to see you. Double thinking it now. Being a 6’1 225 pound guy crying his eyes out will be embarrassing as hell Thank you for making me feel something again. I should be happy to be sad right. 🙏🏻🙄🏋️‍♀️ Bill Bennett

ben this hurts. a lot. he tried to break my heart carefully . but there isnt a way to gently sever what we had. he stretched it out. gave me hope. i held on to that birthday promise he made me . he said he would always choose me. he didnt. and im learning to cope with that.

Your music is magical Ben, From walking me through breaking up with the one I thought was the one, to helping me feel closer to my grand mother, you have a special place in ,y heart and I can't stress how much I love you.

I don’t think it’s healthy how obsessed I am with this song.. like who hurt me?

Love this song.
