Who's listening in 2024

My daughter committed suicide this time last December and I only found this song by chance last week not knowing anything about the musical. Lots of the lyrics are so appropriate and describe how she found herself in her journey through life which we as a family didn't know about. Those closest to her, her children, partner, ex partner eventually broke her spiritually, emotionally, financially to the point where she presumably saw no other way out to end the pain she was hiding and suffering. We miss her deeply and Christmas for us will never be the same again. Time doesn't heal the mental torment such events befall on families, if she had only cried out for help but alas this was not to be and life goes on within you and without you. I hope I get the chance to see the musical some day but time's running out for me as well at 70+ but at least I now have this wonderful song in my life. To avoid any confusion as seems to be the case with some of the very kind responses I have received, this comes from her father and not her mother.

Me 😢

My daughter sang this tonight for her recital at school. She's been battling an eating disorder for the last year and a half and finally confessed to us a little over a month ago. Needless to say, this song made me cry during her singing. So many parts of the lyrics speak to her and it breaks my heart that she's suffered for so long alone and didn't trust me enough to share with me this disorder. I long for the day she finds herself again and can live a healthy life and see just how beautiful and precious she is. If she could see herself through my eyes, she would never doubt her self worth. To all of those girls and boys who doubt yourself and struggle, to someone in this world, you are the best thing that happened to them and if you could see yourself in their eyes you would know your worthy. May God Bless your paths.

It is a Hard way, and maybe there is more than the ed, probably lots of hidden fears, dudes or Hurt in your daughter's life, but i'm sure that you can overcome all the obstáculos.

When I graduated high school I weighed only 93lbs. At my lowest I hovered around 87lbs. In 1987 when my mom finally found out, after going to our blessed Dr. Miron, called All my friends AND my teachers. They were instructed to watch me like a hawk. My friends made sure I ate lunch and then made sure before the next class that I did not throw it up. That's kinda how they treated it back then. If you would just eat. I was suffering from such crippling depression. That's why I wasn't eating. Mine was not a body dismorphic thing. Only went for help when I was in my early 30s. Been getting therapy for 20 years. And Every time I get really, really down I stop eating. In March I ended up in a psych ward for a week. And I needed to be there. Been hospitalized years before as well. I pray for your precious daughter as well. Sounds like you're a vigilant and loving mom. I lost mine only 2 months after od ing on one of my meds. I wish, wish I hadn't done that and put her through that. Lost my boyfriend only 2 weeks after losing my wonderful amazing mom. Looking back I'm not sure how I survived. Or how I continue to. Mom was only 56. I am now 54(!) And I still struggle. I get help and try to talk. But when I'm in it...every bite is a struggle. Your daughter, I think, with you by her side will prevail. Don't EVER give up on her! You may not fully understand why she does what she does but just be there. Like my mom keep on her, keep telling her you're there and that you love her. NO MATTER WHAT. She'll hear you, she will. Prayers for you both. Keep fighting!

❤️ Much love and support, I'm glad your daughter managed to open up to you after so long. It's the start of a long journey but I have faith that you can both do this together and your bond will be stronger than ever xxx

In 1967 I was 8 years old. My stepdad began molesting me. That’s when my spirit died and I became someone other than I was supposed to be. I became an alcoholic around age 17. My life was so full of chaos, struggles and losing things forever. I’m now 62 and I’ve been sober for over 11 years. I have two beautiful children who help guide me. I know who I am today. I’m a very strong woman today. My life’s journey made me that way. This song is so relatable and I’m OK. My faith in God saved my life a very long time ago. That little girl has stopped crying. I now love that little girl. I see her every time I look in the mirror and I’m proud of who I’ve become 🙏♥️.

I had a classmate named Sofiya. Once I was yelled at by my teacher and classmates and had an anxiety attack. I was about to cry but she hugged me, a hug that I still feel up to now, it was the most comforting hug ive ever felt. I have never thought of dying, it has always occured to me that I will reach my dreams first before I even die. It was Sunday, I was so happy being able to go to a trip with my class. I went to my best friends house, she showed me the picture my classmates were uploading saying may she rest in peace. I genuinely thought it was a joke, I got angry bc its not something to joke about. I still can't believe it until we went outside. My teacher came up to us with a soft voice, like she was afraid we might break. I still remember the burst of emotions I had I want to stop crying because I don't want to believe it, but I can't. My body felt heavy once the cold air of the venue creeped through my skin. Her name. Her name was there in the chapel. We went up. I saw her picture, I covered my mouth and plugged my earphones, I can't cry, I have no right to cry, this is her family's mourning moments I shouldn't ruin it. It took a while to muster up the courage to see her lying there, lifeless. She's so pale. Her left face is almost destroyed. It was a car crash. But she still looks like an angel. It strucked me. How life is short. How lucky I am to be alive. How much pain I'm feeling. How she affected me even if we're not close friends. Sofiya, you really do shine brightly.

I found it on tiktok by chance (thought the melody was haunting), but then I listened to the full song one day driving to work. Every word hit so hard I started to cry. I really do think there are many, many ways people can listen to this and find meaning for their own lives. It makes me long for the person I was, for the chances (and people) I lost, but it also makes me want to keep going and fight just a little. Its an amazing, amazing song.

The music industry didn't want her because she writes her own music, probably produces some of it and can perform it like a pro. Because of these things the music industry would have to share profit with her and they do not want that. They want disposable talent that won't claim any ownership rights to the music and therefore can't profit from it in perpetuity. This is why you see the people you see in the music industry today. It is also why the WGA and SAG are on strike for their rights at this moment. Please support them unless you want to see tv and what is left of movies get even worse.

I really want to hug my young self, she feel so cold, she been through a lot and nobody’s by her side. She’s so kind to everybody, wont say no, she brought a whole bag of soft drinks for her friends, in hope they’ll forgive her for doing nothing wrong. But she’s happy, no matter how many times people throw shit at her, she’s smiling, she’s so innocent, she’s beautiful, so beautiful.

I know where you're coming from but, as others say, her music's target audience isn't everyone. And I don't think she really wants to much exposure, sure lots more people should listen to her. She is so inspiring and helps me through life but her music can get sad, most people don't understand music like that and I guess it scares them. They don't know what the singer is talking about, they can't relate and so they ignore the music and listen to the trash on the radio about people's overconfident views on themselves. I do hope she gets more appreciation, though.

This song is the only thing in the world that can actually make me cry, since I became numb by the pain. It’s so good to finally be able to cry, thank you, thank you so much for these lyrics. I’ll make sure to come back after the fire in my eyes is gonna be back, I promise I’ll fight as hard as I can to bring it back…

This song, along with Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle will always make me understand the happy cries and sparkling memories of a little girl kept inside a beautiful woman. It’s funny you know, b cause inside us mere males too, still lives that little boy with similar memories of having lived in glorious times. No matter what gave us strength and wisdoms - parents, siblings and friends alike - we gracefully draw on all of it every time a mesmeric melody is left in our hearts. Kindest wishes and many memories of that little girl again and again :)

This video, this song, this artist equally deserves every view the lovely Adele has in her new single and it really makes me so incredibly insane that "Hello" will eclipse "She Used to be Mine" in almost every media outlet, instead of sharing the spot, for no other reason than the comeback break. Seriously, Sara Bareilles has top-notch skills and she hasn't gotten the spotlight she rightfully deserves, goddammit.

+Christopher Tong Excuse me, but could you not generalize people based on their age? I'm thirteen and I don't only want "a catchy beat." I have no interest in Taylor Swift and every single song I listen to has meaning. Saying "all the kids" is completely inaccurate; you're just describing those who have no musical taste, those who enjoy rap and such garbage. I think that if you paid a little more attention, you'd see that a large number of us are nothing like that at all. But you won't pay more attention, will you? You'll continue to consider adolescents as uneducated children, just like every other adult. You will generalize and generalize and generalize until no one even remembers that kids like myself exist-- kids who care about what they listen to and stay far away bad music. I suppose this isn't a big deal to you, or to anyone who's going to call me out on this comment, but I am sick of it. Entirely and irrevocably sick.

I think in a way I'm actually happy Sara is not so famous; it's like she's a little secret and only the lucky ones get to appreciate her talent. If it were another one of my favorite artists releasing her album almost at the same time as Adele, I'd be freaking out, but with Sara I really don't mind because I know she's not looking for fame, she just wants to sing and be heard, and I definetly want to listen. I will enjoy her music all the same even if she's not breaking VeVo records.

I endured a 26-year toxic, dysfunctional, and abusive marriage. I got to the point I couldn't get out of bed and was so broken I could hardly function. With the help of good friends and family, I finally broke free and have spent the last few years trying to get on my feet and find myself again. This song touched my heart and soul so deeply! I will find her (me) again! She is there under all the pain and trauma. And every day I see her a little more...❤

This song describes my life in 20’s I turn 30 tomorrow and I believe 30’s will give me some peace. For my 20’s it had bitter moments which eventually turned into great lessons. I lived more for others than myself so as I turn 30 tomorrow I promise myself to do better for myself first.

I can’t listen to this song without crying. Makes me think of the Me before and after serving in combat. “He is gone but he used to be mine.” I plan on writing a full adaptation of this song for people suffering with PTSD.

Not sure if you are a religious person or not but prayer is does more than we can see. I will be praying for you and your daughter

But i hope one day to be healed from all this and one day leave this as a part of the book of my life and never return back to this. This is the hardest chapter ever but i believe i will move onto the next chapter and it will be brighter happier then ever.

I just found this song, as my girlfriend and I just ended our relationship. She was my first real love, and every guy has to go through that pain at least once. This song represents everything I feel. She is all of those things baked a beautiful pie, and I don’t ever want her to be hurt by a man who can’t love, I just want her to be happy and safe and free from all harm and pain. She used to be mine, and I’ll always love her.

A year ago my house was involved in a fire. I lost everything I once thought I had; everything that once I believed made me be ME. My mom was badly injured that day and I spent near 3 weeks with her in the ICU. Then we had to move to another city cause we didn't have some place to live and call our own. As my dad's work demands him to travel everywhere, I had to take care of my entire family; including my 2 lil sisters, and my mom. I lost the love of my life; he walked away one day. The only person who helped me to be strong enough to keep going. Most of my friends also walked away. After a year I returned to (the place once used to be) my home, to rebuild it. Alone. It's been a really really tough year. On my prom night I had both my parents at the hospital. I feel like I've lost so many things that day, including parts of myself. Parts that I don't think are coming back. And some other parts were slowly just drifting apart. I related so much to this song that I've been crying all day long. It hurts me, 'cause I never thought that someone could ever feel this way. Thank you so much Sara, for making me realize that there's at least someone out there who I can relate to. This song is just... perfection. And I hope I can be the person I was once. Maybe, someday...

She is young

My mother is a wonderful person. The second youngest of four daughters, she made mistakes. She got pregnant at 20. Barely ready for a child. She walked away from one abusive man and did what she had to, to raise her son. She worked two jobs. She found him a good father figure...someone she thought was a good father figure. She got him his first dog. She believed in him no matter what. When that father figure turned out to be manipulative she walked away, and made so many mistakes. And it was the son's chance to remind her of all she'd done for him and make sure she landed back on her feet. This song shattered me. I'm in pieces. I'm sobbing. All the things my mother sacrificed, all the pain and the mistakes. She's not the same woman she was, how could she be? I know she has regrets. And somehow, magically, I know I'm not one of them, even thogh my existence caused so much. I shared this with her and she cried with me. Thank you for Sara Bareilles. We can't change the past. We can't make scars vanish. But knowing that others have felt this. That others know that fight to find that fire again. It means to the world to my mom. It means the world to her son. Thank you.

+Rex Craigo I replied to like two people and actually quite a lot of people didn't know that. Just because we know that doesn't mean everyone else does. She isn't as popular as like Taylor.Swiff where every little thing she does makes the front page of the paper or is the top news story...So if by posting.this I helped inform even one person than I'm glad .

Respect your mirrors. They don't laugh when you cry. Respect your pillows. They catch ur tears and prevents ur house from flooding. Respect ur knives. They make the pain go away by producing pain. And last but not the least: Respect your eyes. They explain things that ur mouth cannot.

On the worst of days i find myself hiding in a black hole - not even seeing myself in a mirror… I fight to climb out each day and it gets tougher and tougher. I never feel like I matter , or have any value. This song and her amazing calming voice remind me - I do matter.

Beautiful song. Relate to my life. I was used by a man I loved but he pretended to love me. Thankfully I meet a man who loves me deeply, doesn't care about my past and both of us are happily married. Tears are rolling down on my cheeks as I'm typing this. Thanks, Sara. ❤️

So glad to hear of you and your mans happy ending, It did not work out for me but i love to know there are those who it did work for , it gives us all hope, Be well.

I love the fact that by the title we think it's just a love song but in fact it's a song about yourself. It's powerful lyrics Trying to find yourself!

Dear myself: please give life another chance, and I'm sorry that you've been so lonely, that you've been fighting alone for so long, that I didn't appreciate you enough. Thank you for being the one that's always by my side through my ups and downs. I'm sorry for all the bad things I've said and done to you. I'm sorry... I'm sorry...

Dear Kristene, please don’t give up on life. We all feel lonely sometimes but loneliness is all-consuming and dampens any brightness, but life isn’t just loneliness. I hope you find the beautiful parts in this massive world, even if it’s the small things, a butterfly in summer, the feeling of warm sun on your back as a cool breeze glides by, drinking a hot tea on a snowy day underneath a pile of blankets. Life is difficult and stressful and draining at times but those moments make the beauty in this world that much sweeter. I truly hope you get the chance to experience those little pleasures (a good start could be baking a fresh batch of cookies, letting the smell of vanilla fill your surroundings). It’s taken me a while and I still dip every so often but I appreciate life so much more now that it is in colour again, rather than when it was great and unforgiving. Please listen to yourself and give life another try - even if you falter keep trying. I believe you can do it because you already promised yourself that you would try. (Feel free to message me if you want a cookie recipe or chat). X

She used to be Mine. She is singing to the woman losing her former self. The Woman she used to be.

This is one of my favorite English songs. I hate who I am right now and I wish I could go back and pursue all my interests. I used to enjoy so many things, but now all I can do is watch as my life ends before it had a chance to begin.

Been on a 4-year journey through depression. I can tell you now that I'm closer to the other side of it, that you do get parts of your old self back - it's not gone forever. You learn to be happy again. Some of the old you gets mixed in with some of the new, and you become a different, but good, new version of you. Sending love to you on your journey.

I am fine.... my comment did not say the song didn't speak to men but as I am not 'a man' I did not speak for them... when you read more than there is into someones comments,and say you HATE feminists ..(which is pretty harsh considering a feminists wants fairness and equality for both sexes), that speaks volumes about how fine you are... and I was great until you decided to attack my comment for being something it wasn't .. have a great day... :) I just love the song as it speaks to ME as a woman and I know it speaks to many of my friends I have shared it with... if it speaks to you that's GREAT too ..

oh do stop. this song is about a woman, it's about women. women identify with it, no person said men can't. troll elsewhere and leave her to enjoy this song.

I'm praying my granddaughter comes back to her family that is her biggest fan club. Rooting for my grandbabies is my life purpose her on this realm. God leading the way to break generational curses of oppression from narcissist, rise my child you are of godly blood, RISE to your inner power within. We will stand beside you in your battles.

Today I do not miss such 'songwriters'.......I miss those who would have viewed such writers.......the ones who would have appreciated such........This country of ours remains in such a divide and missing how such letters could bring such Shared Emotions ........such wasted emotions to fight such shared EMOTION ........but, whatever it may be.........

So damn amazing
