    I'm utterly shocked that you aren't incredibly popular by now. Your music was a big part of what got me through my formative years. All my high school bus rides and adolescent memories have a soundtrack in common, and you created it. Thank you, for all you've made as well as specifically this song. It warms my heart to know that you're still killing it just as much as you were in 2013 when I first learned of your work, and that you are still growing and changing as an artist both stylistically and thematically. You'll always be a legend, George. We love you.

While packing tonight, I stumbled across my scrapbook I was putting together with my ex from 4.5 years ago and little cards and letters she wrote me. She's long since moved on and so have I but I do miss her and then got a bit depressed at the fact that things were perfect with her and somehow things went wrong somewhere and I've been alone ever since. So yeah, thank you for this song/video Watsky. Hearing "You deserve love" kinda choked me up a bit.

    This is such a beautiful song. It's about two people learning to love each other not in in spite of their demons, but in an effort to fight them together. So much of love is working on yourself, trying to be better. And it's scary going into a relationship when it looks like you're a mess and they're perfect. Her Watsky is telling his lover that it's ok, they're not so different after all, and they both deserve to be loved through their hardships.

    I’ve never had a song connect with me so deeply until I heard this, I’ve been going through a very difficult time mentally for the past year and listening to this makes me feel like I’m not alone. Some of the lines almost exactly describe what I’ve been going through to the point where I’d skip the song when it would come up on my playlist because it’d upset me when I heard it. Now I realize it’s meant to address the listener, about how you need to grow up and accept help from others even when you don’t want to, and that you should let yourself be loved. Watsky has a way of making you feel like you’re in his shoes but like he’s a more knowledgeable (although still fucked up) version of yourself at the same time. I wish I could’ve met him and Feed the Biirds backstage.

    Hello, hello, hello, hello (hello, hello, hello, hello)
    It's a motherfucking pleasure (it's a motherfucking pleasure)
    No pressure, but would you like to blow my mind
    And move too fast and plan our perfect lives together? (Plan our perfect lives together)
    Holy, holy, holy, holy (holy shit), you mean to tell me, tell me, tell
    You're tough to love when you don't love yourself, well
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    My less exciting features are packed inside my body
    They're crammed into the balcony, they're jamming up the lobby
    They're falling out the window
    You can see them crashing through the glass
    When I don't keep my lids closed as the director flicks his wrist
    The stagehand in the wing has got a silver chain he grips
    And when he lifts it opens up the velvet curtains of my lips
    And I say
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    We're not looking to wish on a star
    We're no good at receiving the help
    Who the hell do you think that you are?
    Trying to make me believe in myself
    You're like the sun in the summertime
    I know you are but what am I?
    I don't really wanna sound like a lullaby
    But I think every family is a butterfly
    You know, pretty from afar, pretty gross up close
    Don't pity what we are, it's mostly unhideous
    And I'm sitting at the bar with a beer
    So cheers, come toast me
    Get cozy since we're both lonely
    Why don't we leap and then go see
    What we become when it's done, it's dumb
    But I'm not looking below, so don't ghost me
    And it's seeming like we're in agreement
    That the demon that we're fighting isn't the exact same
    But if we're teaming up and carrying the weight together
    We can miss a bit of back pain
    And if you're into it then we can get up out the city
    In a minute in the fast lane
    Get hitched in a chapel in Vegas
    Maybe get rich, life is a craps game
    And I take my cue, from you
    On what you wanna do 'bout a last name
    It's not so bad to be a Watsky
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    Those fires in your attic that rage without permission
    Some days invade your living room or break out in the kitchen
    They breeze right through the building
    They just show up as they please
    And then retreat like grown up children
    Well how'd you like to split this l and
    Tell me what you've witnessed
    If the price of life is hell
    Well no one ever had to sell me on how nice a fire smells
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    And there's so much I've been silent on
    But I'll whisper every secret to you when this mic is gone
    And I know you'll listen (listen)
    And I know it's different (different)
    But it gives me peace our missing pieces could be siblings
    The rough nights ain't leaving, so why the hell should we?
    And I say
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    Welcome to the family
    You deserve love (welcome to the family)
    You deserve love (welcome to the family)
    You deserve love (welcome to the family)
    You deserve love
    You deserve love (welcome to the family)
    You deserve love (welcome to the family)
    You deserve love (welcome to the family)
