"Although my fears are real The things I fear are not" ..might be one of the best lines in music in decades..

There's a timelessness about her music. It makes me feel nostalgic for someplace I've never been. 🤔❤️

@@margaretwild6574 Agreed. Sounds like she puts pieces of her soul in every song

[@eazynja5029]

I'm a 34 year old South African black guy and when I bumped into this song on Spotify I felt like crying for no damn reason.. She sings with so much feeling and soul... ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@innourish]

I just read my journal when I was your age (now 74) and I'm with you on this stuff. I wrote "I wish there was someone I could talk to." well I talked to myself and now all these many decades later I made it and have so much empathy.

[@innourish]

Plus I sing and play guitar....this is saving grace!

Big facts

[@allie9529]

The fact that every song of BENEE herself addresses most of the peer problems nowadays. Damn, so accurate. She never failed to impress all of us. I love her way of expressing and delivery of message through lyrical process. T^T

Isn't that just what every popsinger does to get a big audience?

[@Joegarabet]

​@@carlosandleon Well Benee actually battles with OCD, I think thats what this track is about. to answer your question; Yes. But im going to have to disagree with the assertion being put forth by your question when taken into context, specifically "every popsinger" part. its pretty clear you haven't actually listened to any of her songs so I will leave you there in your blissful ignorant state.

[@carlosandleon]

@@Joegarabet Pay attention to other pop songs then

[@kombuchamushroom]

this song cleansed my soul, dried my tears, healed all my pain, and watered my flowers while it was at it

[@beef_slop]

A stunningly accurate portrayal of what it's like to live with an anxiety/panic disorder/OCD. Right down to mini conversation with the second party towards the end of the song, with them not understanding why they are acting that way and almost coming off as annoyed/frustrated in them is 100% relatable. "Why are you thinking these things?" (These things) How do I even explain? (Explain) "You're scared of almost everything" (everything) I know and it's really a drain (a drain) And the response is really accurate as well: it's almost resigned and gives the same energy back to the person asking the questions. Like almost asking back "do you think I wanna live like this?". Those that live with these disorders know very well how it can feel when interacting with folks who don't experience it the same. Most of us have worked our whole lives trying to get to a point of being "normal" and "carefree" but have felt this way so long that anxiety and panic become "normal" and and the normal response just becomes avoiding everything for comfort (which is it's own way of being carefree but with way more negative consequences.) So, to the outside perspective, they see a person they love doing nothing to help themselves get out of the hole they are in. But they also haven't seen all the effort they've taken in the past to help themselves and the failures along the way. Plus, the whole process absolutely is a drain! Why do you think it's so hard for them to work on themselves? Your body and brain being on red alert 24/7 takes everything out of you. BENEE really hits the nail on the head with this one, and the song is beautiful as well. What a gem of young talent.

[@damazywlodarczyk]

This song is bullshit. She doesn't have anxiety/panic disorder/OCD. She's a 20 year old music star. She records songs, plays concerts all over the world, and give interviews. She's outgoing and full of energy whenever. Everybody has worse times, but people who really have these sorts of problems, they don't do shit, they stay home, they don't achieve success, because they have to deal with their disorders, which are real.

[@beef_slop]

@@damazywlodarczyk what qualifies you to gatekeep mental illness? You don't know anything about her or what she deals with on a daily basis. You're funny and sad tbh

[@beef_slop]

@@damazywlodarczyk the saddest part is that you're essentially saying people with these disorders are incapable of getting over them or achieving success alongside them which just isn't true. Do you believe these things of yourself and that's why you're projecting it on everyone else? I genuinely hope you get a better sense of self and I mean that. Whatever has got you saying things like this is lying to you. You're better than the attitude you're giving.

[@damazywlodarczyk]

@@beef_slop There is nothing sad about what I wrote, you're just a mean person. Also, stop with the bullshit yourself. You know nothing about me, so stop assuming I'm broken and I have no sense of self. You're trying to put me down, and look good on the internet. You're just a devious, mean person. How about talking about the subject? I'm sorry but successful, outgoing, quirky pop stars don't have a reason to talk about anxiety. People who stay at home and really fear the reality have a reason.

[@davidharrison7014]

@@damazywlodarczyk Why would you post something like this? (It's just a song)!!! Perhaps she KNOWS someone with OCD, and wishes to relate to that person with that condition. The faces in the clouds in the video I see as the inner demons that some of these people must deal with just about every day.

[@Mystic_Kitty]

I don't think I've ever been able to relate to a song like this. I have really bad anxiety and other issues and this song just touches my heart. 😭

[@Aliceiseverything]

Hope u get over it soon : ) keep smiling ✨

Although your fears are real, the things you fear are not! Let go, and live in love.

As someone who has long suffered from overthinking and anxiety I can totally relate to this song. Thank you for being so honest with your songwriting.

[@ethereallune3992]

This song has perfectly described how I’ve felt living with anxiety disorder and feeling so sad all the time.. i dont sleep well, I feel like I’m losing so much.. I just want to be better, I want to make the people around me happy and not drag them down.. it hurts so much.. this song, “this happens every night, sometimes you tell me off” gets me so much. Had exact situations like that happen. Gosh this is so hard and I just don’t know which way to go anymore and this song gets me bawling..

LYRICS Mmm, what's it like To not have to think about it? It seems nice Not a care, so quiet Maybe I'm consumed by my mental Does it hurt me? Maybe, oh, well If I medicate, would it help me? 'Cause I'm hurting, I feel unwell You know how I feel You've told me before Although my fears are real The things I fear are not I know it doesn't matter I know it doesn't matter None of this even matters I know it doesn't matter I know it doesn't matter None of this even matters Check that Have to check that the oven is off This happens every night Sometimes you tell me off Maybe I'm consumed by my mental Does it hurt me? Maybe, oh, well If I medicate, would it help me? 'Cause I'm hurting, I feel unwell You know how I feel You've told me before Although my fears are real The things I fear are not I know it doesn't matter I know it doesn't matter None of this even matters I know it doesn't matter I know it doesn't matter None of this even matters You say "Why are you thinking these things?" (These things) How do I even explain? (Explain) "You're scared of almost everything" (everything) I know and it's really a drain (a drain) Hide under a pillow (pillow) Something's at the window (window) I'm too scared to check though Now I'm crossing my fingers Flicking off the switches Is my house filled with witches? What is my mind? What is it like To unwind? What's it like?
