Abby T do you know whats worse than having someone tell you to get help? To have them tell you you're exaggerated and there is no reason for you to be depressed. that truly sucks...
"This song goes out to anybody we who's ever been told the way they think or the way they feel is the wrong way to think or feel. Goes out to anyone who's ever been pushed down, held back, walked on. Anyone who doesn't feel comfortable in their own skin, anybody... Everybody- it goes out to everybody. It goes out to all of you! And the reason it goes out to all of you is because all of you are fucking beautiful. I've noticed there are a lot of people in this world trying to tell people they're not beautiful. And I don't stand for that. I think it's bullshit. Each and every single one of you are gorgeous, believe in yourselves. This song goes out to all of you. It's called Therapy."
I come here every year, on the anniversary of my last cut (and many other times bc I'm All Time Low trash 😂). I would never have gotten anywhere without this band. I would be dead. That's why I have 2 tattoos dedicated to them, one covering my scars, and long to get even more. Happy 3 years clean to me.
Oh gosh, this comment is sooo cute! I love this community for being so addicted and thankful to this band. Thank you for sharing your story with us. Happy 3 years! c: ♥
Sophia LovesYa Aww, thank you! And TheTallOtaku thank you as well! Honestly, I've found and reconnected with so many amazing people thanks to this band. I am forever in their debt
Heard this live last night and the vast majority of the crowd were singing along. Many were crying. This song brought everyone together. It was how a concert should be!
i really hate how some people can forget that "little 12 year olds" and teenagers could have been abused when they were younger, raped or bullied. you "adults" always act like your generation was so much betted because you didn't have all these "kids" depressed, when in reality you did but nobody cared enough in your generation to do anything about it.
+lizeth Adell I think the misconception is that at twelve, you've either been through shit like that, or you haven't been through much at all. Things do get harder as you get older, but that doesn't mean that what a twelve-year-old is feeling isn't killing them. People see twelve as young. Twelve IS sorta young. But if you're twelve, you can't help that you're twelve.
+lizeth Adell it is ok. many people of my generation are abused too. But dont use drugs? Or something else. Im depressed for over 10 years and never used any drugs. Sorry when people have bad lifes and use drugs they have a drug problem that have nothing to do with thier bad life.
I remember when I was 15 or so and was so unbelievably sad all the time, and this was the song that made me lock myself in the bathroom, and cry my heart out and stopped me from doing stupid stuff. fast forward three years later, and this song makes me shut my eyes, and smile through tears, because I learnt to love myself so no one would have to, but I can hate myself every once in a while and have people to remind me the good things about myself. And this song will probably still make me smile through tears even when I'm 80, and truth be told, I'll probably live to 80 mostly because of that song.
I JUST WENT TO A SIGNING OF THEIRS TODAY AND I WALKED UP TO ALEX AND TOLD HIM HE WAS MY FAVORITE HUMAN ON THE PLANET AND HE STOOD UP AND HUGGED ME AND SAID I WAS HIS AND I'M STILL CRYING
I've slowly been developing Social Anxiety, and i've recently been having small scale attacks alot more now.The only 2 things that can calm me down and help me through them are listening or humming this song, and remembering what Alex said, "Breathe. Remember, it's just chemicals."
I have severe Social Anxiety and one of the few things that helps is listening to music. Specifically bands like ATL, ADTR, PTV, BMTH, and so forth. It's a good coping skill for many things. You're not alone friend, it gets better with time. Just learn what triggers it and what doesn't. Good luck :)
I have social anxiety as well because I was bullied for a year and been to therapy for about 2 years.. I couldn't even go to school without getting panic attacks. I thought it would ruin my future and got depressed because of it but now I go to a new school and I'm doing lots and lots better and believe things always get better it's just a matter of time.
the light behind your eyes is just.... a whole other world of emotions but also Disenchanted: MCR The kids from yesterday: MCr Golden: FOB Truce: TOP Carolyn: bvb roger rabbit: sws Adam's song: blink 182
This song was so helpful to me and still is. I was depressed for a long time and self harmed. I came across this song and I really tried to stop then and I haven't done self harm for nearly a year now
It just passed midnight where I live, which means I just turned 16. 3 years ago, I became seriously depressed and began to harm myself. 2 years ago, this song stopped me from committing suicide. Without this band, I never would have reached this day. 3 years of hell but I did it. I'm well again. And I couldn't have done it without All Time Low. :)
When so many things fall apart in your life and when so many things soon are lies and when you've been left and alone and had to sit in the dark to listen to your own jagged breathing, you give up on people. You give up on trying to find help, you become addicted to the misery. But then you find a song, 3 minutes of freedom and of understanding all for yourself. It's not a selfish thing, but you finally can hold something to yourself, something can't hurt you. It can't hurt you, instead every strum touches your heart strings and every word becomes a scream and every pause a lifetime. And in that moment you know there's hope, you know maybe just maybe you can.
this song is my life song. I have depression and anxiety/ panic attacks, so the lyrics, I'm a walking travesty, but I'm smiling at everything, is the perfect line to describe me. I tried to take my life twice but this song kept me alive. this sing is my go to when life is crap
Hang in there! I promise it gets better. This song and ATL in general helped me so much too. Today, I hit 4 years clean of self-harm and I am so proud of myself. You can get through it, I promise. In the words of 4 very wise men, "and if you need a friend, then please just say the word."
My ship went down In a sea of sound. When I woke up alone I had everything: A handful of moments I wished I could change And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade. In a city of fools, I was careful and cool, But they tore me apart like a hurricane... A handful of moments I wished I could change But I was carried away. Give me therapy. I'm a walking travesty But I'm smiling at everything. Therapy... You were never a friend to me And you can keep all your misery. My lungs gave out As I faced the crowd. I think that keeping this up could be dangerous. I'm flesh and bone, I'm a rolling stone And the experts say I'm delirious. Give me therapy. I'm a walking travesty But I'm smiling at everything. Therapy... You were never a friend to me You can take back your misery. Arrogant boy, Love yourself so no one has to. They're better off without you. (They're better off without you.) Arrogant boy, 'Cause a scene like you're supposed to. They'll fall asleep without you. You're lucky if your memory remains. Give me therapy. I'm a walking travesty But I'm smiling at everything. Therapy... You were never a friend to me you can take back your misery. Therapy... I'm a walking travesty But I'm smiling at everything. Therapy... You were never a friend to me And you can choke on your misery.
y cut? it wont help u in anyway. It will only make u stand out more and give u another thing to hide. It's just a permanent reminder of all the temporary bad things. Stop kicking yourself while your down because life will do that to you enough. You need to get up and smile change the things that make u cry so their now tears of joy. Please reach out and tell at least some one your close too. I promise the bad will end you just have to wait. hang in there for those that love you. i'm sure im not the only one cheering u on. :D
I saw this live on Saturday. they played in Birmingham. I didn't think an already incredible song could be even better live. It was amazing, I would give anything to see it again.
Tomorrow i'm turning 21, eventhough i'm more mature than the last time i heard this song--which is in high school--but today i realize i'm still a walking travesty that smiling in everything.
I always turn to this song when I give in and hurt myself. It's so calming to listen to because it helps me cry and it just feels good to cry sometimes and I don't even know what I'm trying to say I just love this song so much.
I love it how when I look in the comments of this song I see so many people from different fandoms saying how this song helped them and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. when ever im afraid of something or anything else im going to remember this wonderful and amazing song by my favorite band and remember what alex said "Its just chemicals" :D
This song helps me so much when I have anxiety or panic attacks! Also when I went to watch them Feb 13th 2015 Alex sang this by himself and the whole arena put there lights on there phones in the arena it was so amazing and I cried for the whole song and it touched my heart so much and I felt special in that moment! They have saved my life so many times 😭 xx
This song helps me along with Hold on till May by PTV and Savior by BVB. Nobody I know except my older sister Ashlee knows why these songs mean so much to me. My younger sister just thinks I like them for the beats and the lyrics (She's not wrong), she doesn't understand what the lyrics mean and I hope she never does. I will always love this band, they're helping me through so much right now and I could never say thank you enough
my cousin introduced this song to me when I was 14, when i came across this song, I was very heartbroken about a certain person, this song made me cry, and at that time I knew that everytime I listened to this song, I would feel better. 5 years have gone by, I owe this band big time, I realised how stupid I was back then and how this song made me realise that I'll get stronger and stronger over time. thank you All time low, thank you for coming into this world not only for producing good music but as a therapist for all of us
Haven't listened to this song in years. I was joking to myself thinking about how nostalgic all my old emo bands were and then this one came on and struck me right in the heart and reminded me of 10th grade where I was a depressed, neglected and abused kid who took solace in this song and All Time Low as a whole. Therapy, you were never a friend to me, but you were much needed. 7 suicide attempts and years of therapy later, I can say from the bottom of my heart, it does get better.
This song goes out to anybody we who's ever been told the way they think or the way they feel is the wrong way to think or feel. Goes out to anyone who's ever been pushed down, held back, walked on. Anyone who doesn't feel comfortable in their own skin, anybody... Everybody- it goes out to everybody. It goes out to all of you! And the reason it goes out to all of you is because all of you are fucking beautiful. I've noticed there are a lot of people in this world trying to tell people they're not beautiful. And I don't stand for that. I think it's bullshit. Each and every single one of you are gorgeous, believe in yourselves. This song goes out to all of you. It's called Therapy." -Alex Gaskarth
I was having a pretty crappy night and started having some terrible thoughts until I remembered how this song saved my life a couple years ago. I will NOT be falling back to old habits and I sure as hell am not going to allow temporary thoughts cause a permanent mistake.
It's already 2022 but this song never gets old, missing my seatmate back then we use to jam all time low songs. Miss you so much bud hope you're doing well in life
i love this song so much im all time low all the way lol this song has gotten me through allot of depression and anxiety thanks all time low you guys really are an inspiration to me
They gave us (the crowd) the option for the band to play Therapy or Remembering Sunday a few months back and I screamed Therapy because it was the first song I had ever heard by them. . . I was so happy when they started playing it and sung along the whole time. Absolutely wonderful show these guys put on.
One of the few song that really helps me a lot during my late teens when i was suffering with depression.. There isn't a single day where I don't listen to their music...
+Pia Katharina i was so close to tears when he sang it in orlando.. everyone with their iPhone lights on and singing asdfghjkl it made it hard to not cry
This song covers of my life.. "When I woke up alone I had everything. A handful of moments I wish I could change. In a city of fools I was careful and cool but they tore me apart like a hurricane I'm a walking travesty but I'm smiling at everything."
This song made me realize how deeply needed I am for a change in my life and the only way to get it is accepting my mistakes and embracing help from others. Touching feeling to open heart.
it's been a little over 9 years since my now best friend turned me onto all time low and this song is the only thing helping me with my anxiety attack right now. they saved me back in 2015 and they never stop.
This song has helped me with damn near everything my eating disorder my ptsd my anxiety, my panic disorder , my depression, my personality disorder....my night terrors where I wake up screaming my head off ....yeah like I said everything
My ship went down In a sea of sound When I woke up alone I had everything A handful of moments I wished I could change And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade In a city of fools I was careful and cool But they tore me apart like a hurricane A handful of moments I wish I could change but I was carried away [Chorus] Give me therapy I am a walking travesty But I am smiling at everything Therapy, you were never a friend to me You can keep all your misery [Verse 2] My lungs gave out As I faced the crowd I think that keeping this up could be dangerous I'm flesh and bone I'm a rolling stone And the experts say I'm delirious [Chorus] Give me therapy I am a walking travesty But I am smiling at everything Therapy, you were never a friend to me You can take back your misery [Verse 3] Arrogant boy, love yourself so no one has to They are better off without you (they are better off without you) Arrogant boy cause a scene like you're supposed to They'll fall asleep without you You're lucky if your memory remains [Chorus] Give me therapy I am a walking travesty But I am smiling at everything Therapy, you were never a friend to me You can take back your misery Therapy, I'm a walking travesty But I'm smiling at everything Therapy, you were never a friend to me You can choke on your misery
back when I'm was a kid I feel this song and as a teenager I understand this song and now as an adult I understand the motive of the writer/singer to this song. Indeed a therapy!
I'm 20 and I've loved this song since I was 14, and with each year that goes by, this song applies to my life in SOME WAY OR ANOTHER. And for the first time in 6 and a half years the part were he says, "Love Yourself So No One Has To" REALLY hit me and I really wish just that short lyric would've stuck with me for the past 6 and half years the way it did 5 seconds ago.
When I was 13 I went to an outpatient mental hospital for 3 months. We had several group therapy sessions a day as well as one-on-one therapy sessions and psychiatric sessions. On Fridays though, at the end of the day, we would sit around in a circle and play music from our phones on a speaker to the group. Everyone got one song to share. I chose this one. I’m almost 22 now, I still go to therapy, twice a week, and deal with all the same problems, but I’ve also come so far.
i love this song! it makes me cry, its so sentimental to me! me and my cousin, caleb (who's really into all time low, and was having kind of a hard time with life) did a duet with this song. he played guitar and i sang. we sounded awful and messed up a lot, but it was one of the best times i ever had. i knew nothing about all time low, but i loved this song, and i still do.
8 years ago feels like yesterday: I was 15, fighting an eating disorder, intrusive thoughts, and the challenges of growing up. But I did it, and I'm eternally grateful to be where I am today. May this be your sign - you can do it, too. Nothing is permanent. Thank you All Time Low, this song means so much
when i was younger i didn’t understand the meaning of the song and years later listening to this i’ve realized these songs are so much more than what they are. they’re absolutely beautiful and i’m glad they still help me today
I remember when I was 15 listening to this especially on the bus rides back to my dorm. This hits differently now that I'm 24 and still have no clue what I'm doing with my life. It's been one hell of a ride but I'm lucky to be alive at this point in time. God bless y'all. Cheers 🥃
I think I've listened to this song 50 times at least in the last 24 hours. It's such a soothing song and it just helps with so much crap in my life. Thank you so much ATL guys!!!
When Alex sings "Give me therapy" it reminds me that I needed it, and I have it now. The reason I'm in it, is because I was depressed, which lead to me writing a suicide note. I was thinking of acting upon it, until my mom found the note, leading me to therapy. I still have those moments where I have suicidal thoughts, crying myself to sleep and having bad flashbacks from my past every so often...kind of like right now *sighs sadly*
My ex sang this song in a competition, he didn't win but he definitely won my heart . That moment is still fresh in my mind, his shy face and my super speed heartbeats listening to his song. This memory will forever be cherished, love you buu.
I remembered this song, came to listen to it again and sure as hell didn't expect to cry. I remembered middle school days, bullying, feeling alone more than ever and this tune spoke to me like nothing else. I'd like to say to all the kids who are struggling to find their place, it's going to be alright. Time cures everything. I wish I knew that back then. ❤️

Perfect
I also feel ALL TIME LOW (I'm sorry, I had to make the pun)
The start is me currently xD
Six years later- this song still does it all.
I can relate to that
I JUST WENT TO A SIGNING OF THEIRS TODAY AND I WALKED UP TO ALEX AND TOLD HIM HE WAS MY FAVORITE HUMAN ON THE PLANET AND HE STOOD UP AND HUGGED ME AND SAID I WAS HIS AND I'M STILL CRYING

My ship went down
In a sea of sound.
When I woke up alone I had everything:
A handful of moments I wished I could change
And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade.
In a city of fools,
I was careful and cool,
But they tore me apart like a hurricane...
A handful of moments I wished I could change
But I was carried away.
Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can keep all your misery.
My lungs gave out
As I faced the crowd.
I think that keeping this up could be dangerous.
I'm flesh and bone,
I'm a rolling stone
And the experts say I'm delirious.
Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
You can take back your misery.
Arrogant boy,
Love yourself so no one has to.
They're better off without you.
(They're better off without you.)
Arrogant boy,
'Cause a scene like you're supposed to.
They'll fall asleep without you.
You're lucky if your memory remains.
Give me therapy.
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
you can take back your misery.
Therapy...
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything.
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can choke on your misery.
This song is my therapy
Same
well said
mine to only because i haven't told my mum or dad about my cutting, depression or getting bullied so my emotions are locked up inside me
y cut? it wont help u in anyway. It will only make u stand out more and give u another thing to hide. It's just a permanent reminder of all the temporary bad things. Stop kicking yourself while your down because life will do that to you enough. You need to get up and smile change the things that make u cry so their now tears of joy. Please reach out and tell at least some one your close too. I promise the bad will end you just have to wait. hang in there for those that love you. i'm sure im not the only one cheering u on. :D
@@nihilnemo5421 I'm doing OK atm thank you
I saw this live on Saturday. they played in Birmingham. I didn't think an already incredible song could be even better live. It was amazing, I would give anything to see it again.
I was there to the left of the stage, I cried during missing you, did you enjoy it?
+Jess Kendall Enjoy it? I could watch it ten times over and still want to see it again!
+Maisie Moore good to hear! x
+Maisie Moore ikr. I saw it live it London. It was amazing, I cried tho!!
on march 9th 2014?
coming back to this music as an adult is wild.
This is so much more than a song
This song makes me cry so much.
Tomorrow i'm turning 21, eventhough i'm more mature than the last time i heard this song--which is in high school--but today i realize i'm still a walking travesty that smiling in everything.
Akbar Basit Lol same except I was turning 24
Im actually serious dude and I'm over here, an depressed emo 14 year old ._.
Even after 10 years, this still holds up as one of my favorite songs.
I always turn to this song when I give in and hurt myself. It's so calming to listen to because it helps me cry and it just feels good to cry sometimes and I don't even know what I'm trying to say I just love this song so much.
I love it how when I look in the comments of this song I see so many people from different fandoms saying how this song helped them and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. when ever im afraid of something or anything else im going to remember this wonderful and amazing song by my favorite band and remember what alex said "Its just chemicals" :D
Werewolf just focus on that amazing tenor voice and structure your life to be as good at your craft as he is at his. That's the answer.

One of my favourite songs from their album, along with Stella
nice profile picture!!!!
jenna will Thanks!
okay but who doesnt love stella
This song helps me so much when I have anxiety or panic attacks! Also when I went to watch them Feb 13th 2015 Alex sang this by himself and the whole arena put there lights on there phones in the arena it was so amazing and I cried for the whole song and it touched my heart so much and I felt special in that moment! They have saved my life so many times 😭 xx
"Arrogant boy love yourself so no one has to" i lived by this.
Choi Hyunsuk from Treasure recommended this song so I came here and I was immersed in it. really a therapy
This song helps me along with Hold on till May by PTV and Savior by BVB. Nobody I know except my older sister Ashlee knows why these songs mean so much to me. My younger sister just thinks I like them for the beats and the lyrics (She's not wrong), she doesn't understand what the lyrics mean and I hope she never does. I will always love this band, they're helping me through so much right now and I could never say thank you enough
my cousin introduced this song to me when I was 14, when i came across this song, I was very heartbroken about a certain person, this song made me cry, and at that time I knew that everytime I listened to this song, I would feel better. 5 years have gone by, I owe this band big time, I realised how stupid I was back then and how this song made me realise that I'll get stronger and stronger over time. thank you All time low, thank you for coming into this world not only for producing good music but as a therapist for all of us
🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏
Haven't listened to this song in years. I was joking to myself thinking about how nostalgic all my old emo bands were and then this one came on and struck me right in the heart and reminded me of 10th grade where I was a depressed, neglected and abused kid who took solace in this song and All Time Low as a whole. Therapy, you were never a friend to me, but you were much needed. 7 suicide attempts and years of therapy later, I can say from the bottom of my heart, it does get better.
I haven’t heard this song in years🥺 It brings back so many moments and feelings....I love you All Time Low🤍🖤
This song goes out to anybody we who's ever been told the way they
think or the way they feel is the wrong way to think or feel. Goes out
to anyone who's ever been pushed down, held back, walked on. Anyone who
doesn't feel comfortable in their own skin, anybody... Everybody- it
goes out to everybody. It goes out to all of you! And the reason it goes
out to all of you is because all of you are fucking beautiful. I've
noticed there are a lot of people in this world trying to tell people
they're not beautiful. And I don't stand for that. I think it's
bullshit. Each and every single one of you are gorgeous, believe in
yourselves. This song goes out to all of you. It's called Therapy." -Alex Gaskarth
thank you hyunsuk ❤️
I've always wanted Pierce the Veil to cover this. Vic's voice would work so well with this song.
That would be perfect
I think Alex wrote a few of their songs💜 he knows how great vics vocals are
This song makes me cry...every time
I come because hyunsuk recommend this song, and omg such a great song ❤️
Me too 😂❤
ME TOO
Me too
me too🤭
Me too
a handfull of moments i wish i could change😢😢😢😢
I was having a pretty crappy night and started having some terrible thoughts until I remembered how this song saved my life a couple years ago. I will NOT be falling back to old habits and I sure as hell am not going to allow temporary thoughts cause a permanent mistake.
I'm listening to this for the first time in years, it's late at night, and I swear to god it just started pouring outside. The vibes are 10/10
That's so satisfying man 😩
This song deserves 1 billion views.
there's something about this song that just calms me down and keeps me out of harms way.
This song got me through some awful times. Thanks for all those years of comfort boys, it means more than you know.
It's already 2022 but this song never gets old, missing my seatmate back then we use to jam all time low songs. Miss you so much bud hope you're doing well in life
everytime I'm sad and feeling empty grab the earphone, play this song and ignore the world, it's my Therapy 💙💙
i love this song so much im all time low all the way lol this song has gotten me through allot of depression and anxiety thanks all time low you guys really are an inspiration to me
They gave us (the crowd) the option for the band to play Therapy or Remembering Sunday a few months back and I screamed Therapy because it was the first song I had ever heard by them. . . I was so happy when they started playing it and sung along the whole time. Absolutely wonderful show these guys put on.
One of the few song that really helps me a lot during my late teens when i was suffering with depression.. There isn't a single day where I don't listen to their music...
I used to cry to this song when I was 12. Oh my god.
I'm 12 and i love this song.
Woonsen Swallow same 😂
Hey what's wrong with 12 year olds listening to beautiful songs😭
Eva Smith idk Sarah said she was twelve when she listened to the song. So we pointed out that we were twelve now.
+Sarah Rose Music Same! When I was 11-12. Those were hard years for me. Glad I was not alone.
i cried so hard when alex sang this at their concert in hamburg
***** same
+Pia Katharina i was so close to tears when he sang it in orlando.. everyone with their iPhone lights on and singing asdfghjkl it made it hard to not cry
+Pia Katharina They sang this when i saw them in boston just after the marathon bombings.
I really wanna see them so bad
This song covers of my life.. "When I woke up alone I had everything. A handful of moments I wish I could change. In a city of fools I was careful and cool but they tore me apart like a hurricane I'm a walking travesty but I'm smiling at everything."
This song made me realize how deeply needed I am for a change in my life and the only way to get it is accepting my mistakes and embracing help from others. Touching feeling to open heart.
it's been a little over 9 years since my now best friend turned me onto all time low and this song is the only thing helping me with my anxiety attack right now. they saved me back in 2015 and they never stop.
This band daily helps me through life and I really do love them with all my heart
Dam I listened to this when I was 14....now Im 17 and I still love it!
"Therapy" by ATL and "Hero of War" by Rise Against are my "looking into myself" songs
Same here bro
Sukkieee.. I'm here bec of ur recommendations 🥺
That intro riff gets me everytime. A sweet melancholy sinks in. I sing along and weep to this from time to time..
This song has helped me with damn near everything my eating disorder my ptsd my anxiety, my panic disorder , my depression, my personality disorder....my night terrors where I wake up screaming my head off ....yeah like I said everything
all band like this for example MCR and Green day and others i love😜
My ship went down
In a sea of sound
When I woke up alone
I had everything
A handful of moments
I wished I could change
And a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade
In a city of fools
I was careful and cool
But they tore me apart like a hurricane
A handful of moments I wish I could change but I was carried away
[Chorus]
Give me therapy
I am a walking travesty
But I am smiling at everything
Therapy, you were never a friend to me
You can keep all your misery
[Verse 2]
My lungs gave out
As I faced the crowd
I think that keeping this up could be dangerous
I'm flesh and bone
I'm a rolling stone
And the experts say I'm delirious
[Chorus]
Give me therapy
I am a walking travesty
But I am smiling at everything
Therapy, you were never a friend to me
You can take back your misery
[Verse 3]
Arrogant boy, love yourself so no one has to
They are better off without you (they are better off without you)
Arrogant boy cause a scene like you're supposed to
They'll fall asleep without you
You're lucky if your memory remains
[Chorus]
Give me therapy
I am a walking travesty
But I am smiling at everything
Therapy, you were never a friend to me
You can take back your misery
Therapy, I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
Therapy, you were never a friend to me
You can choke on your misery
back when I'm was a kid I feel this song and as a teenager I understand this song and now as an adult I understand the motive of the writer/singer to this song. Indeed a therapy!
I'm 20 and I've loved this song since I was 14, and with each year that goes by, this song applies to my life in SOME WAY OR ANOTHER. And for the first time in 6 and a half years the part were he says, "Love Yourself So No One Has To" REALLY hit me and I really wish just that short lyric would've stuck with me for the past 6 and half years the way it did 5 seconds ago.
7 years of searching for this song I'm literally crying rn
I just heard this song and I realize how much it describes my life... Iove it and I'll listen to it for hours on repeat now
*this is not a music, this is a therapy*
When I was 13 I went to an outpatient mental hospital for 3 months. We had several group therapy sessions a day as well as one-on-one therapy sessions and psychiatric sessions. On Fridays though, at the end of the day, we would sit around in a circle and play music from our phones on a speaker to the group. Everyone got one song to share. I chose this one. I’m almost 22 now, I still go to therapy, twice a week, and deal with all the same problems, but I’ve also come so far.
many tears shed whilst listening to this song.
every time I listen to this I start crying and I get goosebumps, this is good music
where are all the views !? seriously this song is amazing !
I think it's here /watch?v=Y5MIWoMzeeQ
Love them so much.
i still listen to this master piece
I love this album! Lost in Stereo, Poison, Therapy, Hello Brooklyn!, and, especially, Stella are really good songs!
Oh, and Weightless! If anyone replies to this comment, thank you! I would like to know more about this fanbase's opinions on this album! Thank you!
i love this song! it makes me cry, its so sentimental to me! me and my cousin, caleb (who's really into all time low, and was having kind of a hard time with life) did a duet with this song. he played guitar and i sang. we sounded awful and messed up a lot, but it was one of the best times i ever had. i knew nothing about all time low, but i loved this song, and i still do.
after the gel-a-peel ad that I couldn't skip before this... I really do need therapy
This is one of my fav songs when i was still in highschool now i'm back because of Choi Hyunsuk :)
8 years ago feels like yesterday: I was 15, fighting an eating disorder, intrusive thoughts, and the challenges of growing up. But I did it, and I'm eternally grateful to be where I am today. May this be your sign - you can do it, too. Nothing is permanent. Thank you All Time Low, this song means so much
when i was younger i didn’t understand the meaning of the song and years later listening to this i’ve realized these songs are so much more than what they are. they’re absolutely beautiful and i’m glad they still help me today
Now I'm crying in the middle of computer science. Thanks Alex.
This song describes me. I had therapy. it brought me nothing but misery......this song hits me because i can literally relate to every word
I have my first therapy session today. I've been putting this off for too long and I'm so nervous righ now...
Liyah OLee how'd it go?
Are you better now ?
the world may never know
I remember when I was 15 listening to this especially on the bus rides back to my dorm. This hits differently now that I'm 24 and still have no clue what I'm doing with my life. It's been one hell of a ride but I'm lucky to be alive at this point in time. God bless y'all. Cheers 🥃
I think I've listened to this song 50 times at least in the last 24 hours. It's such a soothing song and it just helps with so much crap in my life. Thank you so much ATL guys!!!
When Alex sings "Give me therapy" it reminds me that I needed it, and I have it now. The reason I'm in it, is because I was depressed, which lead to me writing a suicide note. I was thinking of acting upon it, until my mom found the note, leading me to therapy. I still have those moments where I have suicidal thoughts, crying myself to sleep and having bad flashbacks from my past every so often...kind of like right now *sighs sadly*
Metalhead Bunny keep being alive!!!!
I love this song but I don't cry to it. probably just me.
Someone understands!!
Seeing them next week so excited!
update it was amazing seeing them live seeing them again in may
Atomic Peach Just scrolling through comments, and you replied after 11 months? Couldn't help but notice haha
someone liked my comment so i thought id update
My ex sang this song in a competition, he didn't win but he definitely won my heart . That moment is still fresh in my mind, his shy face and my super speed heartbeats listening to his song. This memory will forever be cherished, love you buu.
I remembered this song, came to listen to it again and sure as hell didn't expect to cry. I remembered middle school days, bullying, feeling alone more than ever and this tune spoke to me like nothing else. I'd like to say to all the kids who are struggling to find their place, it's going to be alright. Time cures everything. I wish I knew that back then. ❤️
"They will fall asleep without you"
This really hit so bad 💔
