- hello here is my new song with an epic video by Lewis Cater!! my new EP 'Man's Best Friend' is out now: cvt.lnk.to/Man...
Lyrics ~
You're gonna wish you believed me
God I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You're gonna wish you believed me
Fell asleep in the kitchen
Slowly dissolving into my seat
I don't wanna be hungry
But nobody will listen
Except for the friend I'm imagining
Curled up in my laundry
You're gonna with you believed me
God I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You're gonna wish you believed me
I'm sorry for exploding
I said some things I didn't mean
And I don't know what came over me
It's just that I'm really hurting
It's boiling above the sertraline
Colliding into the concrete
You're gonna with you believed me
God I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You're gonna wish you believed me
You're gonna with you believed me
God I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You're gonna wish you believed me

Oh hello i'll wait your lyrics xdd
Hola no esperaba encontrarte aquí
Rip Casper we still miss you buddy
I’m suffering through a recent anxiety disorder that was caused by a really traumatic experience and I just wanted to say this is one of the last things that bring me comfort and calms me down thank you❤️
I didn't cried a single time since i was 12, being bullied and depressed since age 10, got social anxiety, PTSD and OCD, I'm 16 now and this dude made me cry so fast and so strongly... I just don't know what to say, I thought I was like emotioneless, you proved me that I was wrong, thank you for that...
I didn't know Robbie before, I discovered him like, 4 days ago something like that, and, he just helped me feel better on some way I can't describe...
Thanks you... You made me realize that no matter what, there will always be something that is going to bring you joy in life, even if it for a few minutes, you made me want to be happy with my boyfriend and stop crying on his shoulder every single day cuz I can't see him 'til two years. I wish I was I his arm, listening to your music while we laugh together...
Wish y'all the best
PS : I'm not a native speaker, and don't consider myself a fluent english speaker, so I don't even know if I'm understandable, but I just did wanted to post that anyways, love y'all, love ya Robbie
thank you for brightening everyone’s days with your music!
i was thinking about it at first and now i decied that this will be my solo for my choir concert
Nobody:
Not even Lemon Boy:
The Live Chat: 🍋✨
Btw I was that one dork that kept spamming 100 lemons in the middle of the premiere chat 👁👄👁👌✨
Robbie, I don't know if you'll see this, but I hope you know you mean so much to so many people. We believe you, love you, and are here for you and I really hope you're doing ok. Please make sure to keep reaching out for help when you're struggling, I know that's saved me countless times when it felt like there was no other option. You're a beautiful soul and the world is a better place for having you in it
When he started fidgeting I felt this so much :(.
This made me feel feelings.
Im gonna make sure my future children know who cavetown is i cant promise that
This song resonates on a number of levels. Its hard to feel like there is any safe way out when you are shamed for expressing who you are, or how unhappy you feel, resulting in learning how to hide it all so well no one believes you when you finally speak up again. Hiding doesn't work, talking about it to people who don't believe you doesn't work, and somehow you end up feeling like you're on trial, having to prove you deserve help, when you are deeply suffering and just want to feel better. I'm so sorry that you have ever felt this, Robbie. For anyone reading this who also relates, because of mental health, being trans, or any other reason, I can say with confidence that it can get better when you find the people who believe you the first time you say it. For me, that started with friends and was expanded upon in years of therapy. Now, I'm surrounded by people who love me so much that I have an abundance of love to give to others.
REALLY REALLY WE ARE A SIMP FOR CAVETOWN:(( HE IS OUR EVERYTHING 💖💕💕💕
frickin incredible
I want you to know that your music helps me get through my bad days, thank you.
AWWWW AGASHHIIII MY LOVE 🥺💕

Fuck I need a sequel to this. You can't let this end as a tragedy.
idk why but i feel like "man's best friend" will somehow be a related story, im not sure tho just a thought haha
I as well
It's better the way it is; a song about unfairness can't end fairly. EDIT: fairly reads easier than fair
@Patrick Wursten that is a valid point however it can’t just end like THAT I mean come on we’re all dying here *at least I am*
he gave a little hint a couple days ago that guilty will be a music video cause he gets ruled ‘guilty’ obviously at the end of this music vid
My friends are gonna wish they believed me when I told them Cavetown is incredible and deserves the world after they hear this song

What can we do to make HIS days better, because he not doing well. Its obvious from the title of the song, his appearance and the song and video. Are we even watching and listening to the same things? Because this is a young man now, not a boy, and he is screaming out for help and everyone is acting as if he's there to make their days better. All I see are these self centered responses about how great he makes them feel. Maybe its because you're all too young, but get a grip and see how he's struggling instead of some happy, little story about the song, which is not happy, nor optimistic. He is alone. He has not saved the animals (which from what I can recall, are all former pets of his who have died), and he is now in a cage, like them alone.
THANK YOUU
I love how even in a fictional senario, Robbie is so wholesome that the only crime he commit is stealing pets because he loves animals. like bro I love you you're amazing and you're giving all of us virtual hugs without even knowing it
Its even better when you think about it, I'm pretty sure the guy Robbie stole from was a pet theif who was stealing them and reselling them.
Ah man the lyrics are so sad dude. Hope you’re alright Robbie, the last couple singles have been wonderful but I worry for you sometimes, bud. We care for you x
Wait, where are the lyrics?

To the teenagers that feel this way, I believe you. My parents never believed I was anxious and depressed at 12. Three years later and they *did* wish they believed me after an incident. Mental illness doesn’t discriminate by age. To counter what everyone told me, no, it’s not just hormones. No, it’s not just for attention. No, you are not crazy. I promise it gets easier with age. Sometimes loved ones just don’t understand. There are people on your side willing to listen!
Note: Self-diagnosis at this period in time is tricky because child psychology is very complicated. Some mental illnesses don’t show symptoms until you’re in your 20s. Be informed, and see a doctor if you can!
Thank you you honestly you have no idea how much I need to hear thing right now
Thank you so much, you don’t know how much this helped me rn. I’m a 12 year old with bad anxiety and depression but my mom thinks it’s just for attention:(
@@tommyswinter4826 I’m with you! I had terrible anxiety at 12. My symptoms started showing around 11/12. It was genetic. My child psychologist wasn’t very helpful, and they dismissed the issue. It only makes a person more anxious if they can’t get the proper help! If you have a loved one you can ask for help, it may be awkward but totally worth it. If not, DM me, and I can try to provide resources for you!
@@tommyswinter4826 People our age can deal with mental health too. It sucks that people dont believe us when we say we are struggling
Things seem to be getting difficulter as we get older to be honest..
I love how robbie make it looks like the song is about animals and lost animals but instead is about depression and how a lot of people don’t believe you when you have it, and more parents
hello! heres my take on the lyrics: (TW: Suicide)
the chorus "you're gonna wish you believed me, god i wish i was happy, the fraying threads of recovery crushing me from above and underneath" refers to depression and hanging on by a thread. society often dismisses people when they come forward with their mental illness and believe they are faking it or doing it for attention but once someone actually dies from suicide, they say things such as "i wish they had spoken up" or "i wish i could have done something". when robbie says "you're gonna wish you believed me", he is referring to peoples reactions once something bad actually does happen. they are going to wish they believed him when he asked them for help.
Hello there! My take on the lyrics was similar to this. It reminds me of how someone being bullied because they’re ignored by their peers, can feel extremely lonely and depressed to the point where they struggle to find something meaningful in life. When the person tries to standup for themselves, people don’t listen. When they try to tell people they trust, people brush it off and act like it’s normal. So this leads to the person struggling a battle alone, knowing their experiences are valid, yet no one believes them. Recovery could be slow, and relapse can happen for them. If anyone’s going through this or has been through this, know there’s hope for the future of things getting better.
That was my interpretation too! I think the lyrics are beautiful no matter how you look at them.
At first my interpretation was that he was framed for a crime he didn't commit, or something not nearly as bad, but now seeing the lyrics this makes a lot of sense
I feel like another good song by Cavetown people can tell others about is “Trying”. If someone wants to tell their story dealing with mental health, maybe they can show them “Trying”, “Ur Gonna Wish U Believed Me”, then “This is Home”. “Trying” could be how someone felt from what they went through. “Ur Gonna Wish U Believed Me” could be how people react when this person tries getting help. “This is Home” could be how this person feels after being in recovery for some time. Telling a story with 3 Cavetown songs.
@Lindsey Feser you’re right, i didn’t even realize that! i edited the comment, thank you for informing me:)🤍
I hate everyone who made Robbie say "God I wish I was happy." 💀
when i was in middle school listening to him talk about his highschool years and how rude people were to him broke my heart because I was in the some position, even if I didn't realize it then haha. I would always say I WOULD be ur friend and now he has millions of fans and supporters :')
@@KeelyDraheim oh 😭 one of my biggest dreams is being robbie's friend cuz like, i never had a softie friend in my whole life
@@ayato_7658 ah yes it's probably always been mine too, but really he always has been my friend through his videos and music. even if he doesn't know me heh
@@KeelyDraheim same, i hate how i see him as my best friend but he doesnt even know that i exist 💀
Sometimes it’s yourself. You’re the reason you aren’t happy, and you can’t figure out how to stop
I don’t quite understand the story but here’s my takeaway:
The pet shop steals people’s animals to sell back to the public, hence all of the missing animal posters. Robbie attempted to retrieve his pet from the store and was arrested for theft, and was dubbed guilty despite being in the right.
Wooooah smart
I think that is the storyline of the music video but i think being arrested or talking to a judge could easily be a metaphor
I like that theory
and robbie wanted people to have their missing pets back because his got missing you can see like a pet collar in the end
Awesome theory
This may not be his intended meaning behind the song, but for me as a trans teen with a family who doesnt believe me, this song is like a letter to my parents
Yeah I'm getting this from the lyrics and how many parents regret not believing their child and supporting them because their kid doesn't come around anymore... This happened with my mom
oh I love this interpretation so much. I hope some day that do believe you and accept you for who you are. you are so loved :')
@@KeelyDraheim aww thank you ❤
okay about this. maybe its like in ur childhood u had ur gender (lack of dysphoria and understanding of gender. the metaphor for this is robbie's pet), then that is stolen away when u go through puberty (robbie's pet being stolen), then you try to come out (robbie stealing the pet back), then they dont believe you and you get trapped in the gender you were assigned at birth (robbie getting put in jail). this might make no sense but thats my interpritation
@@laurie5315 oo I like that too. I only had an interpretation for the lyrics not the visuals
As a pre-T trans guy cavetown is something that has always helped me pull through things, I came out to my mom and unlike what I had hoped she told me that if she called me her son or "Cole" she would be lying to herself and others. I can't wait to get out of this house. This song really speaks to me a lot. I have two little siblings that are the only reason i have not yet packed my bags and went to go live with my dad. To any other people that feel alone remember there are people there for you.
People love you. You will find people who love and accept you, sometimes those people are like family more than your actual family.
How old are you ?
@@lilyvalley4248 i perfer not to tell my age online but i am under the age of 18
i’m sorry to hear that! just know that you are valid, loved, and an amazing person!
I came out to my family as ftm in 2016, none of them accepted me and I live my everyday life full of suffering and tried to commit su*cide several times. 5 years later, on April 2021, my mom finally told me that she’s finally able to take me as I am. I’m so glad I didn’t give up, I promise you things will get better, even at times when it doesn’t feel like it. Much love for you
Im sorry about the circumstances you're in. Know that ni matter what there are people out there who love you and care for you exactly as you are. And there are many out there that deeply understand what ur going throught, so know that ur not alone. U are beautiful, preciouse and a deserving of everything you wish to achive in life. I hope ur situation gets better soon and that ur mom can come to understandyou better one day
I think that we can all agree that cavetown has never put out a bad song. This is magical .°•
The bad song is.... no where
And even if you were to argue the worst song, it was probably one of the first ones he made before he even hit puberty, and even then it’s not like they’re bad.
Today was a hard day... I felt so disgusting and gross. People don't usually understand that. I feel like Robbie's music does understand that. I was going to sleep and I remembered I hadn't listened to this yet! Only thing I have to say is thanks.
Whoever you are, is ok to have hard days maybe better ones are around the corner about to come... As long as that happen you have this song and my comment!
Bye🧚🏽♀️

The music video: about a guy stealing cavetown’s pets
Us fans: we know it’s much more than that
”So you got any defense for these allegations?”
Robbie:
You’re gonna wish you believed me.
God i wish i was happy.
I remember when I met my bf I was singing him “this is home” and stuff. Tmr is our 4 year anniversary, I can’t believe it’s been that long
awww congrats
That's awesome!
Wait that’s adorable omg
that’s so wholesome, happy anniversary for tomorrow
shut up
Hi Robbie, I know you might never gonna read this but I want to thank you for all of your song that are being my only friends when I feel lonely because of my depression. I've never really talk to anyone about what I'm going through but it always felt like your song accompany me during my worst. I want you to know that your song save me for couple of the time :)
(1)
Your username is amazing
His voice sounds like honey. Idk how to explain it better than that
you
@@thornarts well hello there fellow Nagito enjoyer
Agreed!!! Your right
Let me explain my thoughts on the story in this music video. We can clearly see that a lot of different animals were gone missing and I supposed Robbie's dog was one of them. He then found a mysterious man carrying a cage which he followed and found out that his dog was being held by the man. Robbie took his dog and ran away. The man reported and filed against him for "stealing". But, what the court didn't know was the man steals animals and illegally sells them off. Robbie was put to jail when all he ever did was to save and get his dog back. It's so heartbreaking that this is real and happening right now. Let's support campaigns and petitions against illegal actions towards animals! ♥️
I don't think it's supposed to be looked at as a real story I think it's a metaphor for something
@@kangarushi4613 oh yes it can actually be a metaphor or a representation of something deeper and personal! this is just to explain what's happening in the mv :)
It the same w/ children they kidnap them, to then, sell 'em off or send 'em off to other countries to then, get sold for $$$ or for XXX-Slavery some kids it's sad, that 80% of children don't even make it or get found. & It's not just the government fails to stop it from happening the police stop searching for 'em & give up on those kids. Some how we all gotta make a stan to speak bout those ppl who steal kids they need to come forward & STOP taking the innocent.
I'm autistic, and this song has gotten me through quite a few sensory overloads. It sounds so much like my own thoughts, and it somehow has enough power that, if I put it on loop and loud enough, I can still do things, even in the middle of an overload (for people who don't know what an overload is, it feels a lot like 3:15 through 3:20, except so much louder and stronger and constant). Just, thank you, this song is wonderful.
When my family was moving house and my earphones broke, I hid in a dark cupboard for three hours listening to this song as to drown out everything else. It didn't work, but it made me feel a little better.
As an autistic person this is one of my comfort song
I agree, those Time stamps do sort of feel like an overload. I love this song so much
This sounds so spiteful I love it
???
Same! So cool can’t wait to see it!
@rm gaming huh??? Are you serious what happened??
@rm gaming WTF WHY
@@chocolateraccoon498 I think it's just a joke related to the vid cause he's in court in the music video!!!!!! he's not actually going to jail ;-;
My favorite thing about being a teen is that cavetown literally made boys will be bugs and I was able to play that song when I turned 14 and being able to actually say " I just turned 14, and I think I know everything...!" Literally my favorite birthday memory thank-you cavetown now time to wait for another song!!!!
I was so disappointed when I turned 15 because that song just didn't hit the same anymore
im not even 14 and i relate to that song so much
Same, I was at 12am singing it and it made me so happy :')
I love this community :)
I've been listening to Robbie's music since I was 13, and the first thing I did when I turned 14 was sing "Boys will be boy"
I'm 16 now and I still sing it on my birthdays, as if it was a tradition 😔👊
I came out to my mom as transgender. She said its a phase and that Im just confused. She is gonna wish she believed me.
The fact that they didn't let that doggo stay in with him is gonna hurt me every time I listen to this song 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Petition to let the doggo stay with him 😭😭😭😭
Save Pingu
@@MinatheRaichu 👏SAVE 👏 PINGU 👏
I really relate to “I said some things I didn’t mean and I don’t know what came over me it’s just that I’m really hurting” part.. that hits different when you said things you didn’t mean to your friend...ex friend now.
Years ago I told a friend some nasty stuff that I can't believe I said. We are still good friends, and I've apologised to try making myself feel better more than anything, but I can't. Sometimes I'll be breaking down about things I said to others, despite it not being directed at me.
I said some crummy things a few years ago trying to seem cooler because people saw me as kinda pure and I didn’t like that. In all honesty I didn’t even know what the words meant. I just said them in ignorance and I realized later the meaning and it still fucks with me :/
@@booshbush1487 At least you two are still friends
...?
@@ahassett37 It’s okay try your best to let go
Honestly I feel like I can never really say things I dont mean, and no one realy can cuz if I didnt meancit why was it in my head in the first place? And it makes me kinda feel bad cuz it feels like I have all these bad parts of me that do believe this or that - but I dont feel bad for the thoughts for some reason, they feel like truths to me, which scares me even more
am i the only one who felt like this was an ed song? “fraying threads of recovery” feel like how getting better is a really fragile state that could fall apart at any moment... “i don’t wanna be hungry but nobody will listen” is like knowing that a restrictive ed is really hurting you but it’s so hard to get better from- saying you want to recover but crying over food and having people doubt that you’re trying... the not being happy and exploding things are kinda related too since any sort of ed fucks up your emotions
if anyone reading this is struggling with any type of ed please know that you deserve recovery. you absolutely do, because you are a person who deserves a good relationship with food like everyone does. any progress is so so so amazing, im proud of you for every day you go through without harming yourself through food, every moment really. you don’t have to give up because of one bad day. pick yourself up when you’re ready and reach out to someone who loves you, because i assure you that someone out there does. and if you don’t think you can find one, i love you!!! if you need support please just respond and we can chat okay?
he also mentions sertaline which is zoloft, but i also thought it could be about his anxiety as in the music video is shows him messing with his hands and fidgeting, but i do think it is about mental illness and not being believed.
that's a really good observation, it crossed my mind too
@@Sammy-dq6wt I've been on every psych med over and noticed what you noted as well. And the medications he wrote about nearly a decade ago still aren't working.
I do feel that he is falling apart, and his fans are a part of it. They just want him to make music to make themselves feel better, and that sucks. He's not her to fix your own broken lives. Let him fix his instead.
As someone who is trans and currently struggling with an ED I get those vibes too I really hope Robbie is okay 💔
@@CTShun yeah :( and he has a history of disordered eating too I think and with all the recent stressors sometimes bad coping mechanisms look like the only way...
I really hope you’re doing well in your own struggles, or at least as well as you can be. recovery isn’t linear and even if you’re not ready to accept recovery yet i am sure that you are strong enough to. your ed doesn’t define you and you can learn to be better without it. you’re gonna. S okay
this is gonna be a gorgeous song i can just tell
Because all of them are

i do not want kids, but if it just so happens that i have them, i am telling them about you. i hope through their hardest times that they can listen to your music and feel at peace like i am right now. -A 16 year old who’s loved Robbie for years
I know right!?! One of the things Im looking foward to do if I do have kids is showing them all the things I loved when I was their age
[Chorus]
You’re gonna wish you believed me
God, I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You’re gonna wish you believed me
[Instrumental Post-Chorus]
[Verse 1]
Fell asleep in the kitchen
Slowly dissolving into my seat
I don’t wanna be hungry
Got nobody to listen
Except for the friend I’m imagining
Cuddled up in my laundry
[Chorus]
You’re gonna wish you believed me
God, I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You’re gonna wish you bеlieved me
[Instrumental Post-Chorus]
[Verse 2]
I’m sorry for еxplodin’
I said some things I didn’t mean
And I don’t know what came over me
It’s just that I’m really hurting (It’s just that I’m really hurting)
It’s boiling above the sertraline
Colliding into the concrete
[Chorus]
You’re gonna wish you believed me
God, I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You’re gonna wish you believed me
[Post-Chorus]
You’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish
You’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish
[Instrumental Break]
You’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish
[Chorus]
You’re gonna wish you believed me
God, I wish I was happy
The fraying threads of recovery
Crushing me from above and underneath
You’re gonna wish you believed me
[Outro]
You’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish
You’re gonna wish, you’re gonna wish
Maybe Robin does not read this, but I want to say that when I feel bad, very depressed, I go to your music, it relaxes me and in a way, it tells me that everything will be fine,thank you Cavetown, for giving us beautiful music for depressed people, seriously thank you, thank you very much 💕✨
I think he prefers Robbie now
Never mind, I think it is either
This is pig.
🐸
He’s a frog.
A really Loving frog.
And pig cares about you.
Pig also knows that some stranger on the internet can’t fix your sadness but a hug will pause it for a bit.
So here’s a hug from pig. ❤️🍄🐸
Pigs hugs are contagious and pigs goal is to pause as much sadness as possible. So everyone spread pigs hugs in an attempt to make it happen :)
Its Robbie now
I was recently diagnosed with cancer, and in the hospital I found out that Cavetown really calms me down, there's just something so calming about his voice, it's just so light and flowy, it's great to fall asleep to
Edit: Thought I'd let you know that I finished treatment and on the road to recovery!
Wow that's terrible, sending a hug if you want one.
Good luck.
Oh, I hope your doing good! Good luck my man! (Man being gender neutral)
I'm so sorry, I wish u lots of luck
I hope you're feeling well. Good luck!
I love you, I hope you are not in pain. :)
3:16 the sounds...really reminds me of when I'm in the middle of anxiety. I cant escape, I cant think, I can hear everything, everything is foggy. It just keeps coming in waves and there is no escaping. "You're gunna wish you believed me, god i wish i was happy"
This verse hit me on a different level and it hit so hard I flew to an astral plane for a second and wished I could stay
"Fell asleep in the kitchen
Slowly dissolving into my seat
I don't wanna be hungry
But nobody will listen
Except for the friend I'm imagining
Curled up in my laundry"

Who tf dislikes before a song even comes out-
inside me there are two wolves. one is yelling "it's a metaphor for something!" and the other is crying because of the poor animals :'(
edit just in case: robbie this is beautiful and I hope someone is there to believe you
ah me too! listening to just the lyrics it definitely feels as if he's told someone about self harm and they're gonna wish they believed him, believed he could hurt himself before it was too late
keely possibly. whatever it’s about it’s hitting me real hard. like personally it reminds me of trying to come out to my parents, who refused to believe I was really trans. there’s a special place in my soul for anyone who’s ever had to defend themselves like that for any reason
@@lindenbug Keely is on the right track. This song, while using his love of animals as a motif, is NOT about animals. Listen to the lyrics.
is it just me, or does this song emit some type of mystical vibe as if you're walking through a forest full of green and life while you leave the world behind you
i feel like that too
I just listened to this for the first time while walking on a dark trail in the woods at night
Well, that's Robbie for ya. Good lil' guy. :)
Omg yes-
for everyone who needs to hear it:
it will pass. i love you and i'm very proud of you. if you're managed to get to this point i believe that you can go through everything and i hope things gonna get better for you whoever you are dear reader.
ily take care drink water don't forget that you're loved and there's someone who cares for you even if it's just a bunch of random people that you never met irl
Thanks for the water reminder
no bc i usually see these types of comments and kinda automatically think "i know this already but i don't care anymore" but this comment actually stood out to me for some reason and all i can say is thank you. it's probably bc i'm usually the one telling other people pretty much exactly what you said in this comment so hearing someone else say it to me makes me feel better in a way i can't really explain- it's a subtle feeling yet so impactful at the same time. okay i'm gonna stop here bc now i'm just rambling,, but thank you again :( and just know that i'm saying the same thing to you, so let's get through this together ♡
@@theresecasem570 i can understand why you say so because it's kinda same for me so im really glad my words helped you at least a bit and also ty!!! let's get through it together^^
(btw hope you have a nice day. take care!)
Thank you, this unexplicably made me cry.
i swear you knew something. i shouldn’t be saying this but i have two court cases going on right now and not being believed is my biggest fear currently.
I wish you good luck in both sessions:)
@@mialita4667 people like you make my day, thank you ❤️
@@kalihodder3129 Your welcome:)
let me tell u a story;;
a year ago, I made a Minecraft friend. he was rlly rlly nice to me, and we went and chatted on discord. all the time. he was one of my favorite people in the whole world, and I liked him better than anyone in my school. he helped me with my crisis about my sexuality and other things like that. one day, he just left. with the explanation "I can't do this anymore. ily." and a couple of other words I'm too scared to put here. and I kept crying because the last words I spoke to him before he suddenly left were 'hi ily :)'
and this song reminds me of him a lot. so if you have an online friend, tell them how much you love them. because you'll never know if it'll be the last time.
Oh my goodness this made me really sad because it’s true.
He probably fell in love with you but knew that it was just a paradox cuz you were too far apart. That was my reason for leaving my internet friend years ago. I didn't quite know who I was or how to deal with it staying in peace with myself and others around me or with that person, so I'd see the whole situation as a big thing that I wanted to solve but couldn't, and would start to cry the more I thought about it. It was a confusing time for me. I wasn't really a good person too in so many ways bc I didn't have that many friends/real friends, or good friends at all. So I didn't have examples of how to be a good friend/person, especially when it comes to falling in love and thinking about it all the time cause I would do basically nothing all day, lol. I didn't find myself at the time. So... Well, I really hope you don't blame on him or on you, it's just... Idk man, maybe he just wasn't in a good place, either mentally speaking or literally speaking, it could be a lot of things but that sounds really probable to me. Anyway, I hope you're well. Ily.
@@DGOPlays I'd never really thought of that before. But ilyt, I also hope you're doing good
im so sorry that happened too u
I had an online friend who left for similar circumstances 11 years ago. I still think about her a lot.
"your gonna wish you believe me,
God I wish I was happy" this feels like I would say this to my parents. I tell them I'm not happy, yet all I get is "why? I'm the one that should be unhappy, I give you everything" God I really do wish I was happy like they said
We're in the same boat
I don't fully know the whole meaning behind the story but here is what I think it could be:
The pet shop is a place of the past and the pets are child hood. Some kids are forced to grow up fast, hence their "pets" (childhood) being taken away from them. Those "pets" are then sent to the "pet shop", where they kinda just sit there forever. At first you panic when you lose your "pet" to the "pet shop", but as time goes it wears you down and you push through. You aren't happy because you don't have those happy child hood memories, or your "pet", and you start to get frusterated and just want to take those memories back. You might try to steal your "pet" from the "pet shop" (like in the video) or you might do things that kids do so you can try to get that happiness back.
@Shane Knouse im not mad it was just a theory :)
@Shane Knouse :)
Bro I kinda think it’s just about animals
you just described all of my thought process daily when i act like a child (i mean, i am a child, but i feel like when i was a younger child, i never acted as one and that kinda breaks my heart even though it's really dumb, so i act like a younger child a lot of the time, but now people just force me to move on) ((lol sorry for small vent i just needa say this))

Can we just take a minute to thank this guy for making our lives a little less miserable with his beautiful voice?
I found this song by mistake, it was the best mistake of my life
as bob ross used to say: we don't make mistakes, we have happy accidents :)
This wasn't a mistake
May we bow down to Robbie for this masterpiece🙇♀️🙇♂️🙇
we should
Hey Robbie, I've been a fan for years and your music has helped me through so many things, like everyone else has said you'll probably never see this, but I truly appreciate you so much, your music has changed my life, and it always helps calm me down when I'm having a really bad anxiety attack, or just in a really bad depressive episode, I love you and your music so much, I hope so many people find your music like I did, and I hope that your music helps them find their real self and calms their emotions like your music did for me. Again thank you so much (also sorry if this didn't make sense)
The lyrics you’re gonna wish you believed me genuinely concern me so much
Me too. Before even I began listening to the song.
RIGHT
Me too, I hope he's alright.
Ya same I’m trying to interpret what he means by the lyrics..
@@phoenixremusblack1135 honestly a part of me thinks the line "you’re gonna wish you believed me" is like when someone tells people that they're hurting and their not doing so good but people brush it off and not taking it seriously. the lyric "The fraying threads of recovery" I think is trying to imply how hard it is to recover especially if no ones helping. and the lyric "I don't wanna be hungry" makes me worried that it's about feeling insecure or having an eating disorder.
though I'm just guessing, I'm probably way off
cavetown, you've literally saved me from suicide and i love your music. i swear to God i adore you
same, he literally saved my life
Same. Robbie changed my life with his music
thank you too robbie 🍀
You got this dont let go ❤
Same, he is amazing ❤
as a queer teen, this song really hit me. i first came out to my parents as bisexual a little over a year ago thinking that they would accept me, but they said some really hurtful things and completely invalidated me. i’m also closeted as nonbinary and now i’m too scared to come out to them because of what happened last time. i wished they believed me when i first came out, that would have made my life so much easier. but it wasn’t.
until i discovered cavetown. robbie’s music has resonated with me for a while and i sincerely appreciated all he’s done for me and so many other people. he’s helped me learn to love myself, even if other people don’t.
so thank you robin, from the bottom of my heart. and to everyone else out there seeing this, you’re not in this alone. lets stick together, we’ve got this
Wow i relate. I came out as lesbian and I was told I was too young I thought she would be ok with it. I’m a closeted non binary as well
*me just vibing in same except for the nonbinary part*
It really would be so much easier if they just believed us and loved us as we are, without question. Fortunately, when we become adults, we have the ability to find our chosen families and can connect with others who will accept us immediately. That fact saved my life, no doubt. Robbie's music has been really helpful to me over the past year, as I started to medically transition. I'm 36 years old now. When I was a teen, we didn't have the internet and gay folks were just afterschool specials. Its actually through working with young folks that I was able to understand this part of myself (I knew I was bisexual at like 10 years old, despite not having the words for it until I was 19, but gender is a whole other ball of wax). So, thank you to both Robbie and you and all the other young people who know their worth and are willing to show us older folks (those who listen, anyway) how to love ourselves, too! While it shouldn't be your responsibility to teach us, you are, and all I can do about is be grateful and take the lesson. :)
You absolutely don’t need to explain yourself to anyone, if they don’t understand or believe you that would change nothing and I don’t think you have to force it since all what matters is what you feel ( and that you believe it )
Came out as trans male to my mom and she insulted me, I’ve been in the closet ever since. I have a gf now I’m happy but I still haven’t told her ever since she reacted the way she did.
This music video made me realize that Robbie is growing older, just like everyone else and I'm scared of all my friends growing old and me myself too. I'm so worried for my future. Plus I don't want the people I love and look up to to grow old it really is terrifying to me.
I feel the same way
i'm kind of terrified of growing up and having to be an adult, too. assuming that's what you're talking about. i took some time and thought about it and i know at least for myself that it's not something i have to do all at once. i can pick up responsibilities bit by bit until i'm comfortable carrying them. you can't run a marathon in a day, you have to work up to it. and not getting everything right on the first try is ok because you don't just have one chance and you don't have to be perfect. if people are expecting you to be perfect on the first try that's their problem. i know it's not the case for everyone that they have support and time to learn to grow up but i hope you do and i hope everything turns out ok for you. i believe you will be ok.
@@target0330 tysm, I'm young and I have a lot (used to have wayyyy more) of responsibilities at a young age which made me grow up to fast, the thing I'm scared about is having my friends move on and watching them get older and older, it's scary for me, they'll all die one day. Also I've had a pretty bad childhood so I thought that I would just never grow up (kms) so I'm scared of having to do all these stressful things and get back to my current state of mind (assuming I'll get better in the future) sorry if this doesn't make sense I'm not good at collecting my thoughts lol
@@ninjacake08 i think i understand some of what you're saying. with friends, i have a different experience. i stopped going to school in person in middle school because i couldn't take the social pressure and i switched to online school. so now i'm 17 going on 18 and for years my social group has been pretty much just my family. i have mixed feelings about the whole thing. i wish i could have grown alongside my agemates and had friends, but i also think going to high school would have been awful for my mental health. idk about death but it does really hurt to drift away from people and lose them as friends. i wish i had told my friends from middle school how much they meant to me. but idk. drifting apart might have been inevitable anyway. i want to try to make new friends but i don't have anywhere where i frequently interact with peers so i don't know how. i hope i will get there eventually, but for now i'm used to how it is (and im lucky enough to have a good home life which probably makes a big difference) and i'm okay even without friends. i'm sure i will find some eventually. idk if this perspective helps at all but either way i hope you are doing okay and if you're not i hope you are on the road to doing better.
@@target0330 thank you for your concern at the end of your comment, I am on medication now plus therapy and my main stress component is gone. I am on the road to getting better. Even if you're fine without friends rn I do hope that you will get some really nice friends or even just one amazing friend. Have a nice day/evening, or night! :)

To the person who read this,
It’s been hard for you, I know, and it makes me sad that you don’t see yourself in the way I see you. Sometimes they are things in life that cause us to loose ourselves, and the way you have is so unimaginable painful. I miss your smile, the way your eyes light up the whole room just by the sound of your laughter. I miss the way you accepted the way you look in the mirror without cursing yourself out about how ugly you look. I miss the way you didn’t think of yourself as a failure because everyone makes mistakes, we all have flaws and we all aren’t perfect. It’s painful to see that no one around you seems to see the pain trough your eyes, but, stranger, I do, I see how heavy your heart is and how comforting the sadness for you might be, how afraid your heart is of happiness because it disappears in the end, right? You don’t know how much impact you have in this world and it’s sad to see that your demons fight against you and want to take over you. Because you do make change, it’s something so simple and little that brightens up someone’s whole world, it can be a small smile from your lips, the way you look at things you’re passionate about, the way you make yourself eat even though it’s been hard for you lately, the way you zoom out and go in your own world, you brighten up my world by reading this, it means a lot to me that you’re here, existing, but I don’t want you to just exist, you deserve to feel alive. You deserve to get up in the morning and feel good about yourself. You deserve to feel something- to feel every damn second alive in this lifetime. It’s heartbreaking that you think you’re not capable of being loved, because you are, I love you trough all my words and I hope you let it happen in your heart. Love is scary, I know, maybe you heart had been broken once and since then you wanted to be rather numb than feel ever again, it hurts me how you punish yourself, does it not deserve love? Because YOU DO deserve love, please forgive yourself, it’s not your fault that the demons want to take over your beautiful heart. You’re not a bad person for distancing yourself from others, but you deserve someone to talk to, you deserve someone to listen. I am listening, you can tell me what’s wrong. It’s everything, isn’t it? There’s something pulling your heartstrings on the ground and no one seems to understand how misunderstood you feel, it’s heartbreaking to know that I am behind the screen and can’t give you a hug, that’s why I will give you a big warm virtual hug and send you lots of love :). You matter. You are worthy. You are loved. You deserve good things. You deserve someone to listen. You deserve to eat and drink. You deserve to feel good and alive. You deserve to smile. You deserve a hug. You deserve to be all the things you want to be, because you deserve to have and feel good things happening to you and have a fulfilled life. I know I might not know you personally but I care about you so much, I write this because I want you to stay here with me, I want you to hold on a little longer because you matter so much to me, because I will not let you give up on yourself. I want you to see that you should not give up on yourself because you DESERVE GOOD THINGS. I want you to look back on the time when you were a kid, you didn’t give up when you tried to swim for the first time, you didn’t give up when you tired to walk for the first time and fell, you never gave up on yourself, you always kept on pushing forwards, so why can’t you now? I know it’s tiring, your mentally tired, but dont your younger self deserve good things? look back at your eyes that used to be full of hope, look back on those dreams. Don’t let yourself fall, you deserve better. We will both fight, I will fight for you. I won’t let those demons get to you. You can hold on to me, I won’t let you down :). Whenever you feel lonely, then look at the sky, I always look at it and think about you. Yes, you, because it makes me happy that there’s someone looking right back, maybe we can’t see each other but I can feel your presence here with me and that’s enough for me, because I am glad your heart is beating and you’re still fighting. You’re so much stronger thank you think, you didn’t leave your spot on this earth even if you wanted to, you belong here, even though it doesn’t feel like it, when you don’t feel like belonging than build your own home here, put all your love in it and dreams. Think of you as a star when you feel alone, you shine because your heart is good, no matter what mistake you made, no matter about the past you had, you’re one of the stars that shine bright in the universe because you’re heart is beautiful, that’s why the demons in your mind wants to have it. As one of the stars you see others stars, maybe they have felt the same way as you do at some point in there life, but they lighten up the universe with each other’s presence. You’re a star for me, maybe you don’t see it yourself but I can see it, you’re beautiful from inside and out, your body is beautiful the way it is. You make me happy by reading this, you make me feel something by your presence and when you can make me feel that way than you also make other people feel that way about you too. I hope you stay for yourself and don’t let your story get written by others but by yourself, it’s your story not theirs. As you can see, I say a lot of “I hope” because I have hope for you even if you don’t have it for yourself, I see hope in you even though you might want to give up. That’s why I hope you won’t see the world in darkness and will see it colorful again, I hope I will give you a glimpse of hope and make the world you see a bit colorful for today. My favorite color is yellow, and I hope the next time you see the color yellow you will think about my words. If someone left you than don’t blame yourself, don’t think you weren’t enough, don’t lower yourself for someone who couldn’t see the awesomeness in you. If you lost someone I am so sorry for your loss, they want you happy, I hope you don’t feel guilty or regret because you were there, you spend enough time with them, they want you to be happy. They are in a good and safe place now. If someone broke your heart than I am so sorry that they couldn’t see the way you look so beautiful because of the heart you have. Anyone who gets to be with you, doesn’t know how fucking lucky he/ she/ they is :). If you aren’t accepted at home or in general than I am so sorry that you have to deal with someone/ something you shouldn’t be ashamed of, I accept you and support you, I accept you as a human being no matter what race, religion, nationality, skin color, or sexuality you have. You’re safe here with me :). You’re not useless, you’re not a burden to anyone. You’re not a problem, you’re human and your feelings are valid. You’re not being dramatic. Please don’t starve yourself, you deserve food and to drink, I know it’s hard. It hurts to see that you’re in so much pain :( you deserve so much man, don’t let your emotions control you. Don’t let them get the best of you. I am sorry no one is noticing, I wish /hope I could take your pain away for today or even for a moment while you’re reading this. If no one told you, I am so proud of you, you’re reading this and it’s enough for me to be proud of you because you’re here and that’s all that matters to me. If it’s night for you, go to sleep, I know it’s hard to fall asleep right now but you deserve a good sleep. If you have nightmares, please, don’t let them fight you. If it’s day for you, don’t start it by such sad music, I know it’s impossible to have a good day with such mindset but take baby steps, start by drinking two cups of water everyday in the morning and so on.. You will start building little healthy habits. If it’s evening for you, you’re probably overwhelmed and stressed, I want you to know it’s okay to feel the way you feel. You don’t need to be scared, of course you’re overwhelmed or stressed, I mean who wouldn’t? But it’s important to know that when you feel that way you should do a little self care, such as taking a bath for example? You deserve to feel at ease and relaxed.
And if you are somewhere in between I hope you know that you’re so strong for breathing despite the pain, I know you will make it :) I believe in you. All I want for you is to stay here, I really mean all my words, even if there is a lot of unsaid things I want to tell u and my text is getting longer and longer,I want you here.
I hope one day your smile will become a genuine one where you don’t need to fake it anymore, because I can’t say this enough, you deserve a good smile and to feel alive. You’re worth more than every fucking cent in this world.
You can let go for today, I got you, you can cry your heart out as much as you want, but don’t let it tear you down and let your emotions control you by giving up. Crying is not weakness. If you still feel alone I dedicate you a song as your friend.
“Dusk till Dawn- Zayn feat. Sia (I prefer the slow version)” I hope you can think of me and will remind yourself of my words, I will for sure think of you.
In case no one told you and you’re unsure yourself, you’re a good person and I am so happy you’re here.
I hope this is enough to stay today, tomorrow will be a new day, a new start, let go now. Enough with beating yourself up for today, okay?
Life for those who couldn’t, smile for those who forgot what a genuine smile is, love like there’s no other, hug like its your last one.
If you read all of it, until tomorrow my friend :)
have a good day and great years.
I love you so much and am so proud of you, I hope you will remember my words- becho, the stranger that cares more about you than anything :)))

Dear Robbie,
Thank you so so much. I’m a trans guy who is trying to figure himself out, so this song really means a lot to me, as well as a bunch of your other music.

my take on these lyrics that nobody asked for (tw for themes of transphobia, sh, ed mention, and suicide)
i saw the line "you're gonna wish you believed me" as a suicidal cry for help, one i experienced a lot of. growing up a lot of parents/relatives/adults don't believe you when you ask for help and explain your mental state, and it can be easy to fantasize about what they'd do after your death- if they'd regret it, or wish they'd done things differently (i.e. "believed you.")
the next line of the chorus was, to me, about self-harm and being trans. "fraying threads" could potentially refer back to the sharpener music video, in which the feature character cuts open what seems like a tapestry, and recovery from self-harm is something that is incredibly prevalent in the lives of those who used to do it. It may also be the fraying threads of a binder or fabric bandages used by trans men. "Crushing me from above and underneath" could refer to how difficult that recovery process, and the urges to self-harm, are, or the agony of feeling the world around you not seeing you as what you know yourself to be.
the first verse felt like an allusion, again, to having an unaccepting family when experiencing depression and/or gender dysphoria. A kitchen is, growing up, a communal area where you probably see that family a lot, and falling asleep/dissolving(falling asleep could also be read to refer to suicidal ideation) in it seems like it's referring to feeling invisible and unheard in that space. "i don't wanna be hungry" could refer to an ED, but it seems more likely that it's the speaker saying he doesn't want to be in the kitchen at all, but "nobody will listen," so he's futilely seeking out the company of those who may. it's almost like the juxtaposition in just add water, with the speaker both longing for and denying himself sociability due to the behavior of those around him.
the second verse is another reference to mental illness and how it affects the speaker's behavior. the first three lines are fairly self-explanatory, with our protagonist "exploding" and screaming at whoever he's speaking to. the last two lines are the most significant to the overarching idea of the song. "it's just that i'm really hurting // it's boiling above the sertraline // colliding into the concrete." sertraline is a medication (known in the US as zoloft) that treats the symptoms of mental disorders like depression, OCD, PTSD, PMDD, GAD, and panic disorders. the idea that the pain of the speaker overtakes whatever medication he's on is not a new one in cavetown songs (verse 2 of empty bed: "they said the meds would take care of things for me // i don't think they are working") and it gives us insight into the frustration and even worsening of these disorders for the speaker. "colliding into the concrete" seems like another reference to self-harm and/or suicide, for fairly self-explanatory reasons.
that's all lol
There's a few potential allusions to eds in guilty, dear, just add water, and sharpener as well
This song is one of the most relatable songs from Robin, I lost my dogs Penny and Bruno recently. I live in front of an elementary school and my pets have went missing. I downloaded like three apps and posted Bruno’s pictures. I lost Penny months ago and lost Bruno a week ago. I miss them and I haven’t been sleeping much. Please wish me luck, thank you 🧡
hoping you could find them sooner. 🥺
@@msmisery2631 thank you 💛
I wish you the best of luck to find them :)
I know what it's like to lose a pet and it hurts so I really hope you find them.
@@CocoDentzel thank you so much 💛
