cavetown - evergreen [lyrics]

[@meteor.shower8456]

i left this channel after two videos and the last time i checked it was at 2k views i just read through all the comments and it's so good seeing everyone being nice to each other i made these completely out of spite, and i'm not sure if i'll make more, but i hope so to everyone who made it this far in life, know that i'm proud of you.

[@iamthejellyfish2889]

Thank you for posting this it’s like my fave song rnnn, so happy I found cavetown again ^~^

[@JusticeZammert]

why did you make it out of "spite"?

[@user-eh9by3zn6e]

I was listening to this with headphones and I sang the part that says "its not easy staying clean, wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen" and my sister ran over and hugged me 💖

"Its not easy staying clean" Felt it in more ways. 9 months clean

[@tantalizingtiddies7387]

I'm almost 6 months clean, this milestone crept up on me faster than I thought it would, even though it was agonizing. I have a lot of hope you're still clean too

[@vanjatodorovic4575]

@@tantalizingtiddies7387 i'm so happy and proud of you! When it was my half year i cried cuz i felt so proud. It is really hard to stay clean so every day of staying clean is so hard and we all should be proud no matter how long we are clean or trying to stay clean. I've been 11 months now clean

Needed this. Was abandoned and possibly disowned by my own dad, hated by my own grandma (his bio mom) for being romantically interested in women, and feeling alone. I tend to have suicidal thoughts, but I listen to this and it feels fine again, because it will be fine. One day. Update: turns out I'm omniromantic grayasexual Update #2: I'm a gay asexual man-

wouldn't it be nice to be ever green? or wouldn't it be nice to be ur partner but the words "we're done, im sorry" rlly broke me. i thought u would stay and be there for me ,but i guess nice things don't last long. it's so hard to breathe i swear. if anyone knows this feeling, ur not alone anymore.

[@maeve8668]

idk if anyone’s gonna get this but in my desired reality my last name is evergreen and i scripted to have good mental health but i haven’t been successful in shifting yet, this song resonates so much oh my-

[@my_name_is_bee]

hey, not to ruin your fun or anything, but please be really careful if you're going to try shifting, because it seems to be linked to developing psychosis.

[@nicoornelas5676]

Please don't "reality shift" it has become a very harmful thing through creating a dream where things are false. It has become a way of many to run away from reality into a place comfortable. Running has only hurt me and others in the past. Yes, this world can be shit sometimes but through getting through it and making this reality what you want it to be you can enjoy it in all of it's realness, knowing you did it.

[@madisontangen2146]

Katniss is that you- oh wait- that’s Everdeen- sorry luv.

[@book4hd]

i love that :)

[@hihungryimdad]

OMG a shifter?? HELLO

[@MothStar]

I was listening to this song and looked around my room. At my paintings on the walls and my desk covered in paint bottles and art supplies. My Nintendo on my dresser in front of my tv. All of the things in there. And thought of 2019. November 19th. Home sick from school and depression at such a high. I wanted to die and tried. For the first time I thought 'I'm happy I'm alive. ' and in that second he sings 'do you have any idea how lucky you are to be around? ' and even though he doesn't know me. Or hear me I say 'yes. I'm so lucky and I'm happy I'm here.' It's ok to feel terrible. Just remember that life can get so much better. Just help it make that path.

[@xxdevil_dragon96xx10]

I'm really glad you were able to get past it!!! If things gets tough please try to open up with someone! I wish you the best of luck for the future💜💙

I'm probably too young to be saying this but "It's not easy staying clean" when your only solace happens to be the pain

[@idk9747]

Why is eveyone else so happy about how long they've stayed clean for, for me it has never made me proud or happy with myself, just embarrassed and makes me realise how long Ive been alone. Wouldn't it be nice to be evergreen?

[@emoshit-w7c]

I see where you're coming from. For however long you've been clean for doesn't matter, as long as you're not actively harming yourself, then its good. It's not easy staying clean, as it says in the song. But you stay clean anyways. You push past the difficulty and you stay clean. In my opinion, that's something to be proud of.

[@idk9747]

@@emoshit-w7c I've been clean for about a month now and I think I'm starting to feel proud of myself and I know that if I mess up Ill eventually be okay. Thank you for your comment, it did help me understand more.

I hurt someone close to me a lot, and I want them back but they’re scared of getting hurt again. I honestly can’t blame them. They deserved the world and I gave them less than that. This song makes me remember not to take the people who love you for granted, because one day they may not be there and you won’t get that time back.

[@peel6128]

I'm just gonna vent here cuz I this video has always felt like a safe space and a hug to me. Tw: mentions of relapsing I've been clean for about a year now but I'm scared I'll relapse soon. I can feel it getting bad again, everything feels all too familiar and I'm afraid I'll relapse. I'm afraid I'll break all the promises I made and all the bonds I've made. I'm tired of listening to their rants and feeling too afraid to share anything. And I'm tired of feeling like a shitty person because of that. I should probably tell someone but I'm scared they'll just yell at me. I'm fucking scared out of my mind. I wish someone actually cared enough to ask me if I'm okay cuz I'm really not. I'm terrified of the future and all my friends leaving me. It feels like I have to pick between two options, one which sacrifices my authentic self for the happiness of other and the other which could potentially make all my loved ones abandon or hate me. I'm just so fucking tired of caring and being so terrified. It's getting bad again and I'm about to relapse.

[@crowoverr]

hey there! I know I'm quite late heh, but this felt like something I should reply to :) I know it's not easy, it never is. And me saying I get what you felt/are feeling likely won't help much. But I would like to say I get how you're feeling; I can only imagine how horrible it is to deal with. But, that said, you can do it. I might just be a random person on the internet who's never met you in-person, but I care about you. This song's comments are a safe place for people to be. I hope you're doing better now, albeit if you're not, you can say that. And on the road to getting to a better place, you will slip sometimes. But the important thing is that you get back up and keep going. Your loved ones care about you and if they truly do, then they will help you through this.
