“Hold on guys, I gotta use the bathroom.” “Alright man, be back quick, we have our whole lives ahead of us!” “Haha, yeah!” You wash your hands then leave the bathroom, hands wet, wanting to be back to the party quick. You then realise this moment will be a memory after tonight. Hearing the music from the prom, your feel as if you’re watching yourself, from your memories. The moment feels like a bittersweet memory. The moonlight flows through the windows as you push open the doors. “Cmon man, we gotta get some more punch!” “I’m right behind you man.”
Im tearing up because of how accurate this is to my last party at my school. I miss everyone I miss the fights and the people. But most importantly I miss the memories and “her”
you briefly exit the room of the prom party. it is late at night, but the celebration is not over yet. you look down the dimly lit hallway, the very hallway you used to walk through months ago while still being a student in this school. it looks familiar, yet somehow, very foreign. you think about all the fun moments you had with your friends. all the drama and all the excitement of being in highschool. it is over now and everyone is going their own way, likely not to see each other again. the music from the party room is muffled, as if it is sounding through water, far away, distant and unrecoverable, just like your past.
frick that just hits. Sometimes I wish I could just go back and tell my high school self that I should enjoy those years and not waste them away. I was too focused on getting to adulthood that I forgot to live in the moment. Now I can only sit and remember the good times I did have. Knowing that part of my life is over. The innocent romance of a time past. Now all I can do is look toward the future and hope the lessons of the past will help me move forward. Just wish I could have the mind I do now but as a teen again. A second chance to take all the shots I missed. I was so awkward in high school and always seemed odd. I only grew out of that after being a adult for a few years. The truth is the cool kids in high school are the ones with the brain of adult. Being able to exist within the norms of society yet not caring what anyone thinks about you. Only down side to that is you get to consciously watch the fun end instead of realizing through nostalgia after the fact. Just wish I could go back and relive those amazing moments just one more time. Too be truly free from everything for just one more night. Once you experience true freedom its hard to forget it. Too act completely on impulse and just let go. just say FUCK IT and floor it. No relationship yet, depressed, no ties to this world, Completely free to do whatever because you know that if it doesn't work out your already ready for that. Pulling 135 on the freeway at 2am after leaving a house party high as shit. Breaking all the laws, Not giving a care in the world. Completely free from everything. Living on the edge of life. It was anxiety inducing but it was FUN. You never knew what tomorrow night would bring. Now life has slowed down. Im older (but not by much) I have a beautiful fiance, A plan for the future, going to school. I have a reason to live but no longer free. I'm happy (much happier) but at the cost of pure fun. Soon i'm going to have to stop with other things I have been doing since those days. The last piece of my old self. It hurts to let it go. I know I can never go back and if I did it wouldn't be the same and I would screw my life over (before you turn 18 you can live 2 lives fine), But it still hurts to remember. Just wish I could get a second chance at my late teen years. I could do so much different and be so much better. But thats gone now. The past is the past and now I must become the best me I can be. I got to have the fun and experiance true freedom, Now I hope to experience the next joy of life, marriage and parent hood. To use my past to help better shape my child's future. To not make the same mistakes my parents made. in summery i wana be a kid again because adulthood sucks. I wasted my true chance of freedom by not doing enough, now its gone and I gota be a adult. sucks to suck but it be as it be
at least you have an chance in your hand to make it happen just go and have fun if the prom make you bored you can jus tgo to home I skipped prom too actually the things were different where I live, and I got a second chance and boom covid comes so forget about my story just go have FUN
If it’s any consolation, prom’s not always guaranteed to be a great time. I didn’t have a date, so my experience was kinda wistful and awkward. It absolutely depends on the person of course, and that also doesn’t mean you can’t do better than prom with something in your own style!
I’ll never know if it’s me or not, y’know. Or even if this song will play, I’m just hoping I’ll find somebody special to take before the actually prom. And even if I don’t find somebody special to take. I’ll always be able to dance with my buddies no matter what happens during our prom! Because they’re never gonna leave me and I know I’ll never leave all of them. We’re all connected in a way, y’know?
In a month from now, I’m going to prom with a girl I’ve had a crush on since childhood, and my years of high school are about to end, this makes me feel like I’m reliving a memory that haven’t happened yet.
I missed prom because of covid. No senior walk...no senior week... No goodbye to my teachers. Alot of my friends say the hated high school but tbh I miss it. The atmosphere was safe but it just ended so abruptly. It really puts it into perspective how sudden things can change.
even after graduating in '18, after highschool, life isnt the same, schools been my life for 13 years, how do you just give it up? now I honestly feel lost. All those john Hughes films remind me of those great years I can no longer have.
First (and last prom) i went to has to be the most fun i had at school. I didn't get a prom date but i got to hangout with a ton of people. Went alone in a tuxedo then immediately switch to a sweater as soon i got to school. Sat alone drinking punch then my one friend sat next to me. Then his friend sat next to him, then another, then another, then eventually 20 nerds and introverts with similar interests cobbled together and had fun. 1 hour later, we ditched prom and went anywhere really. Did a tiny bit of vandalism, took our skateboards and hillbombed, stole a chocolate bar at a 7-eleven for the first time, and basically did anything and everything we could do. It was the first time we were confident and brave. We even had a fight with the assholes at the skatepark (boards were flying that day). Wish i could relive that day, but those nerds i met have they're own lives now. Most of them have girlfriends and boyfriends, some grew confidence, some become the talk of the school. I wouldn't be so sad thinking about it, but knowing that all of them probably forgot about me and that one prom night saddens me. And the fact that i see most of them almost every week adds to that sadness.
So since everyone is sharing their high school prom stories, I guess I'll share mine too. So I was a junior going to prom with a senior that I worked with. She was actually one of my managers at McDonald's, but she was 18. So I had ended up joining the Army literally a week before prom because it was my last year of high school (I didn't have a senior year because I graduated early) and it being my last year of high school and my last few months of being a civilian for a while, I asked her out to prom. She said yes, we went together, we had a fun time and funnily enough this song came on. It felt like a scene from a movie. Me finally getting with my school crush. Well, after prom, we went on a few more dates before I had to leave for OSUT. About 3 months into my 5 month training I got a "Dear, John letter". She got a new boyfriend who was actually there and she told me we were done. Later that night, the drill sergeant on cq received a note under her door about suicide. Me and two of my battle buddies were called down to her office and she talked to each of us about suicide. She asked me if I was okay and I told her yes, my girlfriend had just broken up with me. And she said something I'll never forget: "Well, Barnhill, she didn't deserve you. You're a great soldier and are gonna get out of this Army a hero, and then all the woman will be all over you. So f*ck her, well don't actually f*ck her, but f*ck her" and that same night, when I was sent back up to the bay to go to sleep, we had a radio that our drill sergeants gave us and when I got in bed, this song came on. Maybe it's coincidence but it's crazy how our relationship started with this song and it ended with this song
This gives vibes of either "you wander in the school halls away from the noise of the prom and you meet the person you like and you end up kissing them dramatically in some cinematic hopeless romantic way" or "you just wander in the school halls away from the noise and the pretentious ways of everyone trying to fit in and 'have fun' while you dwell into your misery, loneliness and depression"
This feels like graduation. My school is a 6-year school, so, you know, we've been together from 12 to 18. And in my country, school lasts from 7am to 5pm, which means we spend almost all our time in school. All the important moments in life, we experienced together. I know graduation is supposed to be a happy occasion, but for me it just felt like my childhood crumbling.
I live in Europe and never went to a prom, where I could relive this situation or maybe I had something similar, but I guess because of Movies and stuff like that I could really feel it and I felt so sad, like someone just left me. It is fascinating and makes me sad at the same time.
It’s romanticized on tv it’s really just awkwardly dancing while adults shaperone if you if u get lucky someone spikes the punch so just dance with your love to the radio at home
I'm gonna straight up start crying if I take the time to type out how this song makes me feel. It reminds me of the crippling loneliness I had to deal with all through the end of middle school and all of highschool. I remember going to my first school dance ever and just sitting outside by myself listening to everyone else laughing and having fun while I just sat in silence missing all of my old friends and thinking about why it was so difficult for me to make new ones. I remember trying to listen to all my favorite songs with my earbuds but not feeling any upbeat or positive emotions from any of my favorite songs at the time, completely void of any enjoyment from it. To this day, I wonder where all my old friends are now and what they're doing with their lives...
I was sort of the same. I failed so all my friends graduated before me and so I was left with little time to make new ones and the ones that I did “befriend” weren’t actual friends just acquaintances. Didn’t go to prom because I knew I’d just be sitting alone but graduation I did go to
Prom night, you’ve been waiting for this moment since you were but a small child. You’ve made every finishing touch to complete your outfit and you’re ready to finally experience the evening of your dreams. You drive to the unfamiliar building at which your dance is being held. You have made plans to meet a few of your friends to enjoy the night with you. You arrive and look into your pocket mirror to make sure you look your best. You walk through a dimly lit path decorated with vines and flowers, surrounded by couples who are making their way to the entrance of the building. As you step inside, overwhelming music washes over you like a wave and you pause to gather your thoughts before proceeding to meet your friends. Forwards, through poorly-lit halls, you find the ballroom. You step through a door that is decorated with streamers and to your dismay, your crush is beside the door with their friends. You gaze at your feet and shuffle through the maze of people who seem to surge like the oceans tide. Slightly disheveled, you surround yourself with the familiarity of your friends and join in on their conversation. You dance until your feet hurt, eventually deciding to retreat to the halls to sit in peace for a little while. While walking back to the main entrance of the ballroom, you see your crush dancing on amidst all of your classmates. You pause to watch as they tenderly hold their partner and gracefully spin in time with the music. Suddenly, your body begins to feel heavy and emotions cloud your thoughts. You turn away from the crowded room and walk with a fast pace, the music fading as you move farther away from its source. You make your way through the building, passing couples who are kissing in the fluorescent light cast from the ballroom. Soon, you find yourself in an empty hallway with the music soft and muffled in the background. Your pace slows and you look around the corridor. You sit against the wall, the frosty tile underneath you causing you to shiver. You wrap your arms around yourself and begin to cry, not bothering to make sure you’re still alone. You feel lonely and forgotten. Who would’ve guessed that your perfect night would end in the dark hall of an unfamiliar building.
Correction: This song gives that exact feeling when you're hurt, upset, and FEEL like you can do nothing to stop or change what's happening to you. Get out of your tunnel vision! Life's unfair but you have OPTIONS
@@Isaax Thank you Instead of killing myself I’m going to overthrow a small government, eliminate the middle class, exterminate all the undesirables and then commit acts of terrorism on a scale never before seen.
So I was homeschooled and never had the opportunity to experience what the public school was like, which honestly was probably blessing. Nonetheless, this video gives me the feeling as if I was there. Boy does it take the mind off worthless troubles but focuses me on memories that could be made.
I saw the girl i loved kiss someone in front of me in prom. She actually invited me there and it was the only reason i went there. Really thought she loved me back in that way. They danced throughout the night and i watched cause it made me happy seeing her happy. Cried my eyes off when i returned home.
Kind of the same thing happened to me, multiple times actually, and i just cant over her, i feel like she does it on purpose, she acts cute and wants me to be in love with her even tho she doesnt want anything with me, and it destroys me.
I got taken out of school because I got bullied a lot, I missed all the dances, hearing music like this makes me wonder what could have been, sort of like a nostalgia for things I've never experienced, I don't really know how to say it, but what I do know is that you should cherish every moment you have on this Planet and live life to the fullest. We only have one life, best make it as fun as you can :3
Something similar happened with my rodeo prom, a girl I had been friends with since the beginning of the school year, I even helped her get with the bf she had. Eventually he broke up with her and we started getting closer… I took her to my rodeo prom after bringing her on a date. I’m in 9th grade btw and well, we had fun and I slow danced with her and loved her so much. We both eventually went separate ways that night and I woke up so happy only to be crushed into oblivion when she started leaving me on open while I was working the next day…she eventually replied saying she had fun but will never get with me and such or ever try to be close to me and such pretty much. “Just friends” and it hurt so much. She just said she wasn’t attracted to me and the pain that had was so much. After that we never really talked again, our convos are dry, we don’t talk anymore actually. She mainly ignores me in school and it’s just painful. The new employee at work also turns out to be her brothers girlfriend and while the girlfriend doesn’t have anything against me turns out the whole family hates me and I don’t even know why.. I acted with manner and chivalry and tried to make it the best night I could for her and spent a lot on her too, Life really just does move on doesn’t it?
i feel you bro, but keep going on with your own life, if you put yourself out there for her and she still didnt reciprocate in the end, then you deserve better, but you have to believe that yourself, keep going man and you’ll find someone you deserve :)
feels weird. i’ve been going to this school for 9 years now, 9 years of fun, 9 years of tears, 9 years of breakdowns, 9 years of hallway crushes, 9 years of running down the hallway with your classmates, 9 years of throwing anger at teachers.. 9 years that i‘ve spend here and just can’t let it to. about to start my first year of high school this year but also the last year of middle school. the fact that we all hate it here until it comes to the last day together. this 9 years i’ve made hundreds of friends and hundreds of them left some of them stayed, lost contacts with some of them but the worst thing is leaving the school with many people still hating on your past. i’m here crying down my tears and getting ready to leave. i had soooo much fun in this school and the only thing i’m scared is if i’m gonna lose my friends from the grade above, what if i move schools and we lose contact?.. well i hope for the best, and whoever came this far to read this i just want to wish you luck in your life and just to remember we all live once so just to remind you if you don’t take a risk you will lose a chance.
About 4 years ago now, I left my old school, on valentine's Day, and left a hellhole of a school where I was loved to a paradise of a school where I was tormented and loathed. I was mocked in a peculiar way, being as short as I was, I was immediately the attention of the tallest girl at my school, day 2 she told me she loved me, I knew she was joking and she laughed it off, I knew it wasn't that easy, but she kept pushing despite already having known it was a joke, a whole term or two faded of the same being hit on and prom arrived. I went to prom with no one, I went to grab a drink, sat down at a bench, she asked me to dance, I was immediately pulled into her arms, and flung around like a goddamn ragdoll, I couldn't even touch the ground, I spun and spun, laughing with joy as at last I don't think she was joking anymore, I didn't care anyway, but it would've been nice to see some sincerity for once. Then I felt everyone's eyes on me, in a daze, she had spun us to the centre of the room, and nobody was dancing, just staring at us two spinning, her hurtling me in her arms, I felt a sharp pain like hundreds of knives go through my chest, and at that gut feeling, I could tell she was startled, and I could tell she was about to drop me out of an anxiety attack, seeing everyone stare at the both of us, and as I thought, she did, she dropped me, and I wish I stayed and assisted her to calm down and assure her, but instead I ran, down the hall and hid, no one came looking for me, I all I could see was a sight similar to this one, I never thought I'd feel so anxious in my life but it killed me that day, not because I loved her, that wasn't the case, but because I saw her true self for the first time, and instead of staying for who she was, I ran because she was vulnerable, I was vulnerable, and I felt like a selfish prat since that day.
There was a girl i had a crush on in high school (and according to her friends years later she had a crush on me too), i regret not dancing with her, she wore a yellow dress with curls in her hair, she looked beautiful but i was just a skinny shy nerd who had no confidence, i often wonder where my life would've gone if i had danced with her. I'll never get the chance now though as she died at age 23 of Leukaemia. If any teens reads this, do it, you can get over rejection, you can't get over regret
Hey man, i just read this and I'm in that position now. I am a Indian born Canadian student. I had been having a crush on an Italian girl for a while now. Shes very shy but sweet. However, she doesn't seems to start conversations first. I always start it. I just worry that I might be very annoying too. She is a foreign student who might probably go back to Italy in graduation of highschool. I don't know if should stop or keep trying. Is it worth it?
@@govindvarma4995 do you mean you're Indian like the country or native north american indian? Cos Italians don't really agree with interracial relationships, so that might be a factor
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33 I actually immigrated from India in 2018 to Canada. So interracial relationships might be an issue. That why I mentioned this. I don't think it's an issue for my family but for her family it might be, I don't even know 🤧
This is the closest thing to a prom memory I’ll ever have. A fair few people hated me at my school due to a fun mix of rumors/gossip, so I was formally uninvited. They were able to do that because it was student-run, and the school wasn’t hosting one due to the pandemic. I was already dressed up and ready to go when I got the text saying “we won’t be able to accommodate you.” I do like the feels this gives me tho.
one of my good friends had died in a school shooting maybe a couple of weeks ago in the Michigan shootings and one of the last things they said to me was "look man i believe in you. you'll find the girl of your dreams , thats a fact. dont give up hope lil bro it'll all get better soon i promise." then he went off to school, and those were his last words to me. I found the girl of my dreams, he really believed in me when no one else did. I still wonder to this day, why it had to be him. He was a brother to me.
Hits different when you're that one kid who eats alone at lunch and who's usually always alone because they don't know how to talk to people. You're excluded from everything and on prom you sit there all alone with noone by your side (contrary to the song playing) Edit : hi guys, I found friends. And I'm doing better.
I have been in that situation but somehow some weirdos Got instrested on me and later start talking and FINNALY he introduce me to everyone else and that's change my life
I was that one kid, my parents moved me to another school in the last year, now im even celebrating christmas alone since i moved out as soon as i finished high school. that was 10 days ago
@@noobscoopsies1100 I have a severe problem with my vocal so it’s impossible for me to respond to any person even if it’s yes or no because a block in my throat pops up so socializing with people seems difficult but I’m glad I’m with my brother in my highschool but I feel like I embarrass him in front of his friends because I can’t talk
Im gonna miss school, not the classmates, not the teachers, but that feeling of learning something every day and not feeling like a dumbass. merry christmas everyone.
Tf I’m graduating next year I’m going to miss seeing people, making friends and thinking abt the memories w them, the teachers that helped me, walking into classes and getting the nervous feeling on the first day of a new school year, the learning was fun sometimes but it was stressful and stress made me sad and give up so I won’t be missing that.
You tread through the hallways during the school prom the party is still going hard late at night. You walk and walk look at the empty classroom remembering your times here as a student. You remember the people you met, the people you talked too, and the people who were just there in the backround. It hurt to remember those things as you end your highschool life after this prom, you dont want to let go of this place and the people here. They mean the world to you. The music is drowned out by the multiple halls you passed by but it echoes to you as if its calling you. Then you realize that the past is done and the last thing you can do to remember is to just join the celebration back in the gym and have yourself one last laugh here. One last laugh for the road. One last laugh for everyone that was here on this road that will soon fork. Never to merge again.
This one made me tear up a bit cause it's my last year of high school. It makes me feel bad because all three years were wasted. My freshman year was shit, my sophomore year was cut in half cause of COVID, my junior year was cancelled because of covid. Now all of a sudden I'm a senior prepping for adulthood and everything is going so fast, i didn't get to do the things i wanted to as a teen, i wasn't able to go to dances, make friends, nothing. Now I'm gonna graduate with people i never truly got to know, and I'll never see them again
@@oDM0o and I thought my prom getting cut was bad cause of COVID, seems like I'm going your same direction aswell. I hope you have time in the future to try to create memories of what could have been to fill up for your wasted years. Best of luck to you :), your noti popped up at the perfect time while searching for this song in the search bar.
It’s prom night and you look amazing just like most of your freinds, after an amazing time dancing and socialising with the people you grew up with while stuffing your face with food and drinks from the buffet, you start feeling sick. And while your freinds are busy dancing you decide to head to the bathroom. You push the doors open and hope the bathroom isn’t too crowded, but as soon as you lift your head you see the hall way steeped in darkness. You had never seen it like this so you stop almost forgetting your stomach ache. This was the place of so many memories, and so many stories that made you who you are, a hall that lead to places where you spent most of your life so far, a place you see in the morning at noon and the afternoon. But the vision of empty it at night came with the alarming realisation that you will never walk through here like you once did. The cold blue ceiling lights and the white floor drowned in solitude are telling you that you’ll be a stranger here once you walk out the door for the last time. Suddenly a soft song starts to play in the room and the noise dies down as everyone starts slow dancing, and while you should go back and dance with your date, it feels right to stay here a second longer, mourning the life your about to lose, and imagining the one your about to start.
My school lasts from 1-9 grade. I felt very burnt out by my friends and when we graduated I felt so much better but I still miss the simple times with them. Now school is all about studying. No trips, nothing special.
You got out of the washroom as this song plays, making your way back down the hallway, but you made a split second calculation and decided to linger, having the divine moment and an entire hallway to yourself, even the dull dim light seems fresh at this golden time and space. Jokes on them, this is the best spot.
Every time i listen to this song i feel like i’m drifting away from reality. like i’m nothing to anybody, i never mattered to anybody. but there is always some hope right?
@Philza_Kin My hope is that I make peace with the overbearing reality of space-time, that this feeling you describe is an actual facility with the scope of what we (as a species) face: our lives are subliminal blips that cannot be measured on any scale that makes sense to a singular mind, our terrestrial domain is a universally insignificant mote of dust. That we are mostly eternally lifeless before birth and after death, that blip of life between the eternally lifeless bookends. Within the span of that blip on our trivial dust mote, we have brief moments to transmit an abstract message and receive an obscure reply. Hope is moot; through your comment alone, you matter.
To everybody here, if you see a chance to be with the love of your life, take it before someone else does. If things don’t work out, trust me, I know it’s hard to get over it, but keep in mind that there’s an even better person out there somewhere, hoping to find someone like you.
I hated highschool. I hated prom even more. The music was artificial and shallow, but so were the students. I guess it fit on some level. I almost enjoyed prom, knowing it was the last night of the last year I'll have to see those faces again. The booming room gave me too much anxiety so I slipped out into the hall for a breather. I decided I would just head home, I had no place there anyway. Before I left that hallway for the last time, with my locker contents in my bag, someone left the gym and ran up to me. It was the girl who sat in front of me in math, the one I always thought was cute but was too hip and popular for me to approach. She exhaled "I always thought you were cute," kissed my cheek and then ran off back to the gym. I took the night bus home thinking about it. I still think about it some nights. It's what made prom memorable for me.
I remember seeing a hallway like this on the day before spring break 2020. I stayed afterschool with some friends and was walking down the hallway to the bus canopy. I was sitting in the bus with my friends when a teacher came into the bus and said "Guys, there will be no school tomorrow." We were obviously hyped since we get an extra day in spring break, but none of us knew that was our last day of school for 7th grade in-person. I always remember this because my 7th grade year was probably my best year to have friends since I had atleast 3 friends in every class. It hurts realizing none if us were able to say goodbye because none of us knew that would be our last day of school before we all went to lockdown. I still went back to the same school for 8th grade, but I feel that I waa then mostly alone in school. After returning to school, I just turned into this shy kid because almost none of my friends return for in-person school and stayed online. It was only in my last period that it felt like I was back in 7th grade. Then it was my last day of school for 8th grade, and having such a good time, but one of our classmate wasn't there (a very sweeft girl friend for us only boys in the class) and it really sucked because with all of us having fun, we could've seen her true self in having fun (and I made my mind and was going to ask her out, but I realize now she never felt something for me except being a friend). I remember leaving the classroom because my bus was called first and saying "Bye, see ya'll later." without knowing I "see ya'll *later*", I walked through that same hallway and knew it would get worse because we were going to highschool and almost everyone was going to a highschool, but the one I was going to. Right now, freshman year, I again only have my last period feeling (barely) like 7th grade with only 1 friend to keep me company. I don't know why I wrote all of this, but just the song and image got to me hard.
This comment section is making me sad so I’m going write something to hopefully bring some light here: It’s prom night. You’ve been preparing for this for a while. Your outfit is nice and your hair is perfectly done. You’ve been dancing for about an hour, your feet are getting tired and the blaring lights are starting to give you a headache. You look over to your friend and ask, “Wanna get out of here for a second?” They nod in agreement and you to go into the hall. You sit down against the row of lockers and you two begin to chat. The dance room music is muffled now and the hall is dark. The lights shining through the door paint you faces blue and reflect trails of glitter on the ground. Your friend and you begin to chat. Nothing much, but the sound of your laughter echos through the halls. After telling a funny story you take a sip of your punch and your friend finishes laughing. They smile and say, “You know, I’m really glad I’m friends with you.” You smile in agreement and say, “You make it easy.” You head back onto the dance floor and as the night draws to a close, you and your friend load back into your car and begin to head back. On the way you stop at a local pizzeria and have some hot pizza as a late night snack. All in all the night was fun, and you can’t wait until you guys hang out again.
I remember when I was supposed to go to prom for the first time, I was ecstatic! I felt like I was going to have the time of my life, I really felt good about this. I had skipped my first two chances to go and I regretted it, I was lonely in school but had “friends” I had no one I could talk to, so when the idea of going to prom came up I was hesitant but alas I decided this was my year, I planned on going with a girl I liked at the time. We had hung out almost everyday of that year and last minute she cancelled on me saying “I snuck out to go hang with (insert other boys name here) and got caught so I can’t go to prom sorry.” I felt hurt. I didn’t know what to do or where to go. I ended up going with my friend and I just sat there thinking about what happened, I talked to my friends a little bit, got a glass of punch and food and the person handing out food asked “you okay sweetie?” And I just teared up sat down and said “yeah for the most part” and sat there listening to the music. It sounded like this. Out of range, under water, far away, like it was leaving. it sounded cloudy…… I got up and took pictures then I left, and sat outside and just layed on the sidewalk in front of my car listening to the music and thinking about the times I had with her. Too bad I can’t re-live those moments, I would love to go back and do it all over again.
Because I’m on the autism spectrum, I’ve always been bad at verbal (and sometimes) physical communication. But when I was little, I always imagined me finding some boy or just someone in general to dance with. Platonic or romantic or something else. But I was pulled out of school in 3rd grade and then put in homeschool. Seeing a face is like some sort of uncanny valley effect to me now. I no longer know how to talk to anyone, I don’t know what non-basic emotions are, I’m depressed, I’m inadequate, my perception on reality is warped. This song only helps nurture those feelings, and call me crazy, but I’m pretty sure that’s something I don’t want.
Hope you will make it.this particular video may bring the worst feelings out of us but we must take it as a dream to chase instead of something that has already gone past us
My prom was cold. My lady had left me a few weeks prior and I seen her there with her new man. I had fun by myself but until you take a look back you don’t realize how much fun you missed out on
Damn, this reminds me of my senior prom. I was the kid that didn't care for school dances and only went because a friend invited me as his date, so I wasn't upset when neither of my parents wanted to go due to not wanting to see each other (they separated on bad terms and were in the middle of a very lengthy divorce). But watching from the sidelines and seeing all my friends and classmates dance with their parents made me realize that I wished they'd set aside their differences for one night to be there for me. I had to go out into the hallway to try and stop myself from crying.
All the colors wash around you as you run. Seeing the person you thought was your true love dancing and having a good time with someone else is too much for you. Tears stream down your face as you slam the doors open, streaking past the couples kissing in the corner, trying to get away from it all. The music gets quieter and the lights get dimmer as you keep running. You trip and fall, curling up in a ball, thinking your entire life should just end right then and there. Yet, after what felt like forever, your tears suddenly stop. As you look up, the familiar smell of the school, the dull lights, and the distant music (that you’ve sworn should’ve ended by now) slowly give you feelings of comfort and peace. Somehow forgetting the tragedy that happened that night, you stand up and begin roaming around the hallways. You occasionally brush the lockers with your hand as you feel pleasure distract you from life. The music never fades (did this song start over?) and you realize you don’t recognize these hallways anymore. How do I get back to the gym again? But the soothing ambiance calms your nerves, helping you forget your worries. You continue walking the foreign yet familiar halls, believing your world is perfect, the same song playing on repeat as you tread along the Edge of Eternity forevermore.
im not gonna miss the teachers. The food. The kids. But im gonna miss the feeling of having comfort there. The laughs , cries , just all that in general.
what i would do to just have one more day of high school with all my friends. i don’t want it to be a special day, i just wish i had one more normal boring day and i would treasure every moment of it, all the people i trusted so much, and now we don’t speak at all. quarantine and covid ruined so many things for me. including my last 2 years of high school.
This song makes me think of a woman, i had contact with. Eventually she ghosted me. As more time goes on she grows so distant, but she also grows closer to me. I'm 100% sure she doesn't care at all about me, the way i do with her. I will always remember her and the range of emotions i had when conversing with her. The muffled sound is like someone is moving away from you, but you can still hear it.
I’ve only been to one school dance and it was the loneliest feeling I’ve ever experienced. Just sitting down and watching everyone else have fun with friends, every time I would try to talk with someone I got pushed aside as they went to talk with someone else. I couldn’t hold back tears any longer so I went to the bathroom and just stood in a stall crying for at least 10 minutes and then waiting a little longer to go back to the dance so that people couldn’t tell that I was crying as my eyes would be pink. I’m glad to finally tell someone how I truly felt that night as I have just kept this to myself for a while.
Listening this makes me kinda sad because I’m a senior right now and proms not to far away. I never enjoyed school, I never made long lasting friendships. I have one person left who I feel comfortable talking to. Going to prom feels terrifying because I’ll see these people who used me, ignored me, or forgot I existed over the last 4 years all in one big room. It’s a lonely feeling.
There was a girl I was really into at the time and I thought this was it... time to finally live my life and to get out there. I got the prom sign ready and everything. Things didn't really go as planned but she ended up saying yes anyway. I got a suit together and I was really excited to go through my final year of highschool with a bang and a few days before prom, the pandemic hit. I lost half of my year and everything I was excited for just disappeared in front of my eyes. I moved out the state for college and two years of online school later I think about how my life would be different if that never happened. Would I have stayed there close to the people knew? I texted the girl I asked to prom a few times over the years asking how she has been and helping her through some things and just about a month or two ago when I asked how she was she just left me on read and never texted me again. I'm guessing that is the end of that, and the last thing that was tying me down to the place is gone. I'm hoping to transfer out of a community college into a 4 year university where I can finally live my life again. No more online school, no more second-guessing myself. Just going with the flow and going to as many things as I can. Even if I'm scared and anxious, I can't let that get in the way of my life and how I want to live it...
This makes me think that everything went wrong and so you've run from the dance and now you lean against the lockers realizing you're alone and you slowly break down as tears stream as you hear all their laughter
To think we were complaining that high school was pain, yet when we get at the end, we look back and regret not enjoying ourselves during those hard but amazing years where we met friends, and discovered ourselves. The nostalgia this video brings me is undescribable.
Never been on a prom because there is none in here. But i know this feeling,the emotion. Like going home first after hanging out with Friends, walking home and still hear faint laughing.
Prom night is both a beginning, and an end. it marks the start of the end of High School, and the beginning of life elsewhere. Due to my own failures, I spent the night prior to prom night behind bars. because of this, when I got there for prom, my crush was dancing, just like I wanted to ask her to. She was just dancing with someone else. we locked eyes for a brief moment, and in that moment, I knew pain. oh, I´m no stranger to emotions hurting me... but the look in her eyes told me all I needed to know. she looked at me, and smiled. she KNEW what I was feeling, and it amused her. I walked away. never looked back. she reached out to me several times in the years that followed, but I just... couldn´t bring myself to try again. she´s passed away now, but I can´t help but look back to that day and wonder.... what if? it´s pointless to wonder about such things, but I do.
Last time, I never got to dance with a girl I had a crush on. The next prom, I just went and danced with the girls who never got a dance partner. Dunno if that was a good idea or not but one of them seemed happy, afterwards.
No it was, sometimes is good to do something bigger than yourself. Ik you didn't get to dance with your crush but I guarantee none of the girls will forget it.
i’m just imagining this song playing muffled like this then all the sudden BOOM- you lock eyes with your soulmate and it gets louder and everything makes sense
I never went to prom. I don’t regret it either. But the image of this high school hallway and song make me nostalgic of high school. I graduated 4 years ago…
It was the end of school, the finale. In so many ways was it emotional. All of the people you know, may possibly be gone, forever. It's that uncertainty that kills you, tears you down into tears, emotions spewing out, uncontrollably, its a tough time. For me, the girl I wanted to go out with went out withs someone else. With prom being something you look forward to since freshman year, it hurts. When your in that school, for one of the last times, your in an indescribable place, a place of sorrow, depression, and anxiety. That music is wrapping around you, like vines, your ears not nearly processing enough for you to grasp what in the world is happening around you, and yet you do. You know that this is it, the finale, and you know that you need to grow up. All of those "what if's" will stick to you like a paperweight, and you're going to have to live with it. This song represents so much of how high school is, and there is no better song to pick to represent prom. It's that one last night for you to do what you've always wanted to do, that one last night to be a kid, that one last night to be in presence of immaturity. If I were you, do the shit you want to do, you don't have forever, and when that time hits, when you realize you need to give that ideas up because responsibilities are hitting you like a truck, you better he satisfied.
As someone who lives in the middle east, I've never been to prom, and will never be to one. But this gives me a..squeazy feeling(?) As if I am here, and I have memories where me and my friends are roaming through the very hall I am looking at right now, people are enjoying their time, before parting ways and never seeing each other again. This feels oddly..faded, and unrecoverable. Just like the times you had with your friends.
This is oddly accurate, it’s honestly just an empty feeling after the night is over since you know that is the last time you will probably ever be around all these people at one time
Everyone can imagine being right here in this high-school... Even you're European or other, this kind of scene are always present in films and series. I feel sad but excited at the same time. You touched me right in the heart dude. Have a good life my friend.
I've never been to prom, but we were close to getting one. One time, at school. I bumped into my friend who happened to hang out with during when I was younger. We hung out again. He introduced me to his friends, who I was quite familiar with. We became a friend group consisting of 3 boys and a girl (me.) All my friends at class or at school were usually boys.. They often have the same interests as me rather than girls. After a few months, we moved to another level. The group got kinda separated since we had different classrooms. Teacher announced that we'll have no more school in the next day. COVID came, we didn't have school for.. i don't know how long. We didn't get to say goodbye.. Luckily, after a few months, the school announced they were doing online classes. I didn't get in contact with the group since, again, we were in different classes. After a few months of online learning, we graduated. And now, i regret not saying goodbye to them. I wish I could turn back time just to hug or just wave bye at them. i wish I could just move on easily but I can't for some reason. i miss running around the hallways and corridors and annoying the teachers with all my classmates.. I'm not ready to let go..
You slowly exit the party, as you walk out you stare at the hallway, as you remember your memories and your past, and where you met your best friends that left you. You slowly walked around the hallway and broke down in tears. The music was muffled from the party room, it sounded distant and lost, just like your past. You slowly exited the hallway and wiped your tears, you wanted to end your life, it was miserable. Zaki - may 2022. (Please don't steal!)
this was on december 10th 2021, i probably won't be seen and most likely forgotten, but... I was getting dressed for a dance at school, all hyped up since it was my first dance after 2 years and I was in a new school and had new "friends", my sister and cousin were also coming along, you can kinda see where this is going, our uncle drops us off and we walk to the school, we make it into the cafeteria and start talking with other people, i look around for people to talk and they all seem busy, so i just wait for someone to talk to me, an hour later im still waiting.. keeping the positive attitude up i still wait, eventually i go to the bathroom and start listening to music, realizing that all i can hear is the muffled songs playing, people having fun, while im over here with no one to talk to, no friends after realizing to myself, and just a side character that never really gets that much attention in other people's lives, so i grab my earbuds and just sit there crying in the stall, but i felt... at peace with myself for some reason... as if, i never needed friends in my life.... i text my girlfriend about the dance and how it's going and she tells me to go out, so i do, i walk around and go sit at the corner where no one's there, out of nowhere people start coming to me and i start avoiding them, this song came on i kept avoiding everyone, feeling at peace with myself, despite everyone getting angry, i felt... happy, only very few people can make me happy and i rarely get myself happy, and i enjoyed this experince, i took two other pictures of me and the dance ended, i left the cafeteria and had the urge to run and shove everyone in my way, i ran, as fast as i could to the exists and walked home slowly, the entire time i felt at peace. despite having people yell my name to grab my attention last minute, the urge to drown everyone out and have this song on repeat was my only priority and all that i cared about, i left everyone back at the dance and got rid of everyone execpt for my girlfriend, family, and online friends, i feel. at peace living like this.... even if the entire world hates me, i still feel at peace...
@@zhongli1139 I know it doesn't, but people got the message and i stopped trying having friends and just stuck with the ones i trurly care about, and i feel happy with life
Damn, I miss that feeling too. I remember there was a time that I went on a deployment, I was on an aircraft carrier working a 12 hour day shift, then as soon as it hit midnight, "its finally quiet", is my initial thought but then came by some people who did training. This pissed me off as I wanted to listen to music without any noise, so I decided to go out into the catwalk where the only lights you can see were the moon and it's reflection. I started looking for any music that I downloaded on Spotify, and this came up. At first it was okay, but then it started becoming my favorite. A few nights later, I disappointed a lot of people, and even got punished for it. All my friends and peers who looked down on me really threw me in a bad time, and so I decided to be alone in the catwalk during night time. Put on my earbuds and as this song came up, tears started flowing down. Moments later of repeating this song over and over again, I calmed down and felt at peace. As someone who handles stress without nicotine and tobacco products, this was one of the few times I ever felt bliss living in this shit hole. I'm so glad music exists. Edited: grammar.
This songs remind me of how I shouldn't get comfortable with friends and classmates, all because of the realization that I won't know them in a few years, just faint memories. The more I get closer to them, the more I'll just cry and miss them when I can't see them ever again. People ask why I'm distant from everyone in class, this is really why. I'd love to have a few good friends, but just knowing I'll have to live with the pain of a great friend who helped me through school is hard. I only have about 3 friends, who I'm not trying to get close to at all. And love.. when I fall into the dark black hole of love I snap back to the realization, but then I get sucked back in. This is all because I'll be moving in maybe 2 years. And I really can't fall in love, but I literally can't control it, but also as I see her talking to another boy, jealousy just grabs me and pulls me back into competition. I can't escape. Yes, I love her, but can't. It's complicated.
Trust me when I say this, Just do it. Life is short and you probably won’t get the chance again. Make friends. Have fun. Fall in love. It breaks your heart but in the end you’ll look back and be glad you did all of those things. You only live once bro. Just. Go. For it.
You are so wrong! Please make as many friends and memories as you can, these are one of the best years of your life. You will regret having such mindset years after, when it will be too late, trust me. I wish you all the best
live in the present but be conscious of the future dude life is so beautiful so when you look back in the future you'll at least be able to say you've had good memories rather than purposefully distancing yourself from others which will hurt you in the long term much more than what you think rn
this gives me a feeling of regret, like a feeling of going to a prom, and just having that feeling of emptyness and depression. i have never gone to a prom but it feels like i have, it feels like my life will never amount to anything, we all can dream. but the posability of changing the world is slim to none. the music makes me feel like im living life incorrectly. some people have a solid reason to get up in the morning, jobs, friends, family and others but me and you, we dont have tat, the reason we get up in the morning is to be. we dont want to live but we dont want to commit suicide either. we just are. we exist. we have feelings... maybe. we might never matter to this world. and we might not matter to ourselves. but somewhere. just somewhere in this little planet, there is a chance, a chance we wouldnt just be living our lives in the internet. there could be chance for all of us. just remember. neither you nor me matter. we are nothing. but... there is always a chance. thanks for reading. adios
This gives crazy nostalgia that I took for granted. I remember I went to the senior sunset event where all of us seniors collectively go to the recreation center and party all night and swim all night till 4am. I remember I sat down with strangers who I never shared a class with and just sat there in silence. The kind of silence where we just knew our lives are changing and that we're heading to the real world anxiously waiting what comes next that we can subconsciously understand each other's fears in a way. It was surreal...
This video was posted right after I went to my senior prom. Wow. I am in love with this. It just feels so nostalgic. I’m so glad that I was able to go. I reconnected with my friend there, I have a video of her dancing and am so thankful for that. Whenever I think of prom, I think of that fond memory and her. She was killed this year. How times change. 💙
"The worst pain isn't a broken bone or a cut its having the people you made memories with become memories"
Felt 🌷🥀
That’s so deep
Deep bro
deep af never thought of that
Fortnite if they were a person.
A prom that actually plays Beach House would be the best highschool prom ever. Wish I had a memory of slow-dancing to "Somewhere Tonight"
still possible, just harder to get a crowd to join.
that would be too magical. beach house was my "drive home" music all throughout high school and it still is
Make that memory lol
Or “Hand it over” by MGMT😌
Way too good to be real
Fun fact: this song will be our "its just a burning memory" in few years. Just watch.
This is a happy place dont bring that song up

“Hold on guys, I gotta use the bathroom.”
“Alright man, be back quick, we have our whole lives ahead of us!”
“Haha, yeah!”
You wash your hands then leave the bathroom, hands wet, wanting to be back to the party quick. You then realise this moment will be a memory after tonight. Hearing the music from the prom, your feel as if you’re watching yourself, from your memories. The moment feels like a bittersweet memory. The moonlight flows through the windows as you push open the doors.
“Cmon man, we gotta get some more punch!”
“I’m right behind you man.”
underrated comment bruv
Im tearing up because of how accurate this is to my last party at my school. I miss everyone I miss the fights and the people. But most importantly I miss the memories and “her”
Thx bro, you almost made me cry
Greatest way to end a movie
Meanwhile, I'm sitting on my ass alone playing Risk of Rain 2
you briefly exit the room of the prom party. it is late at night, but the celebration is not over yet. you look down the dimly lit hallway, the very hallway you used to walk through months ago while still being a student in this school. it looks familiar, yet somehow, very foreign. you think about all the fun moments you had with your friends. all the drama and all the excitement of being in highschool. it is over now and everyone is going their own way, likely not to see each other again. the music from the party room is muffled, as if it is sounding through water, far away, distant and unrecoverable, just like your past.
Dang that just made me cry 😭
Hit close to home.
Will see each other at the reunion
frick that just hits. Sometimes I wish I could just go back and tell my high school self that I should enjoy those years and not waste them away. I was too focused on getting to adulthood that I forgot to live in the moment. Now I can only sit and remember the good times I did have. Knowing that part of my life is over. The innocent romance of a time past. Now all I can do is look toward the future and hope the lessons of the past will help me move forward. Just wish I could have the mind I do now but as a teen again. A second chance to take all the shots I missed. I was so awkward in high school and always seemed odd. I only grew out of that after being a adult for a few years. The truth is the cool kids in high school are the ones with the brain of adult. Being able to exist within the norms of society yet not caring what anyone thinks about you. Only down side to that is you get to consciously watch the fun end instead of realizing through nostalgia after the fact. Just wish I could go back and relive those amazing moments just one more time. Too be truly free from everything for just one more night. Once you experience true freedom its hard to forget it. Too act completely on impulse and just let go. just say FUCK IT and floor it. No relationship yet, depressed, no ties to this world, Completely free to do whatever because you know that if it doesn't work out your already ready for that. Pulling 135 on the freeway at 2am after leaving a house party high as shit. Breaking all the laws, Not giving a care in the world. Completely free from everything. Living on the edge of life. It was anxiety inducing but it was FUN. You never knew what tomorrow night would bring.
Now life has slowed down. Im older (but not by much) I have a beautiful fiance, A plan for the future, going to school. I have a reason to live but no longer free. I'm happy (much happier) but at the cost of pure fun. Soon i'm going to have to stop with other things I have been doing since those days. The last piece of my old self. It hurts to let it go. I know I can never go back and if I did it wouldn't be the same and I would screw my life over (before you turn 18 you can live 2 lives fine), But it still hurts to remember. Just wish I could get a second chance at my late teen years. I could do so much different and be so much better. But thats gone now. The past is the past and now I must become the best me I can be. I got to have the fun and experiance true freedom, Now I hope to experience the next joy of life, marriage and parent hood. To use my past to help better shape my child's future. To not make the same mistakes my parents made.
in summery i wana be a kid again because adulthood sucks. I wasted my true chance of freedom by not doing enough, now its gone and I gota be a adult. sucks to suck but it be as it be
that's deep bro
never been to prom, will never go to prom. Does this make me sad? Yes
I always tried to skip those types of events, but I get why you're sad
at least you have an chance in your hand to make it happen just go and have fun if the prom make you bored you can jus tgo to home I skipped prom too actually the things were different where I live, and I got a second chance and boom covid comes so forget about my story just go have FUN
the pandemic cancelled my prom :(
and my hs graduation ceremony. I still haven't received my goddamn diploma
If it’s any consolation, prom’s not always guaranteed to be a great time. I didn’t have a date, so my experience was kinda wistful and awkward.
It absolutely depends on the person of course, and that also doesn’t mean you can’t do better than prom with something in your own style!
Imagine : this song playing in the hall and u just sitting on the stage stairs alone watching everyone dance.
this will most likely be me soon
Bouta be me Fr
I’ll never know if it’s me or not, y’know. Or even if this song will play, I’m just hoping I’ll find somebody special to take before the actually prom. And even if I don’t find somebody special to take. I’ll always be able to dance with my buddies no matter what happens during our prom! Because they’re never gonna leave me and I know I’ll never leave all of them. We’re all connected in a way, y’know?
Every time I listen to this song I think of this
Me every year of school.
In a month from now, I’m going to prom with a girl I’ve had a crush on since childhood, and my years of high school are about to end, this makes me feel like I’m reliving a memory that haven’t happened yet.
Have fun man :))
you're lucky to get the prom bruv
the virus canceled mine 2 years ago
have fun man
Good luck
its been a month man,good luck,wait no,Best of luck man!
I missed prom because of covid. No senior walk...no senior week... No goodbye to my teachers. Alot of my friends say the hated high school but tbh I miss it. The atmosphere was safe but it just ended so abruptly. It really puts it into perspective how sudden things can change.
I'm so sorry

Time to grow up!!!
even after graduating in '18, after highschool, life isnt the same, schools been my life for 13 years, how do you just give it up? now I honestly feel lost. All those john Hughes films remind me of those great years I can no longer have.
Same thing happened to me and it really eats at you. I know all of the class of 2020 will always have a weird void year that won’t ever be filled in.
First (and last prom) i went to has to be the most fun i had at school.
I didn't get a prom date but i got to hangout with a ton of people. Went alone in a tuxedo then immediately switch to a sweater as soon i got to school.
Sat alone drinking punch then my one friend sat next to me. Then his friend sat next to him, then another, then another, then eventually 20 nerds and introverts with similar interests cobbled together and had fun.
1 hour later, we ditched prom and went anywhere really. Did a tiny bit of vandalism, took our skateboards and hillbombed, stole a chocolate bar at a 7-eleven for the first time, and basically did anything and everything we could do.
It was the first time we were confident and brave.
We even had a fight with the assholes at the skatepark (boards were flying that day).
Wish i could relive that day, but those nerds i met have they're own lives now.
Most of them have girlfriends and boyfriends, some grew confidence, some become the talk of the school.
I wouldn't be so sad thinking about it, but knowing that all of them probably forgot about me and that one prom night saddens me. And the fact that i see most of them almost every week adds to that sadness.
Rat thief
MAN that sounds so fun! The fact that you got to spend time with friends and be happy is just awesome!
made me cry
bring the bar back
If that memory meant that much to you it probably means something similar to them
So since everyone is sharing their high school prom stories, I guess I'll share mine too. So I was a junior going to prom with a senior that I worked with. She was actually one of my managers at McDonald's, but she was 18. So I had ended up joining the Army literally a week before prom because it was my last year of high school (I didn't have a senior year because I graduated early) and it being my last year of high school and my last few months of being a civilian for a while, I asked her out to prom. She said yes, we went together, we had a fun time and funnily enough this song came on. It felt like a scene from a movie. Me finally getting with my school crush. Well, after prom, we went on a few more dates before I had to leave for OSUT. About 3 months into my 5 month training I got a "Dear, John letter". She got a new boyfriend who was actually there and she told me we were done. Later that night, the drill sergeant on cq received a note under her door about suicide. Me and two of my battle buddies were called down to her office and she talked to each of us about suicide. She asked me if I was okay and I told her yes, my girlfriend had just broken up with me. And she said something I'll never forget: "Well, Barnhill, she didn't deserve you. You're a great soldier and are gonna get out of this Army a hero, and then all the woman will be all over you. So f*ck her, well don't actually f*ck her, but f*ck her" and that same night, when I was sent back up to the bay to go to sleep, we had a radio that our drill sergeants gave us and when I got in bed, this song came on. Maybe it's coincidence but it's crazy how our relationship started with this song and it ended with this song
damn...
wow man what a story
Christ bro….why am I crying about this
@@ghostkiller427 it's okay, man. I cry about it too sometimes
@@8bitwarrior037 come here and give me a hug bro it’s all Gucci. 🤝
This gives vibes of either "you wander in the school halls away from the noise of the prom and you meet the person you like and you end up kissing them dramatically in some cinematic hopeless romantic way" or "you just wander in the school halls away from the noise and the pretentious ways of everyone trying to fit in and 'have fun' while you dwell into your misery, loneliness and depression"
This feels like graduation. My school is a 6-year school, so, you know, we've been together from 12 to 18. And in my country, school lasts from 7am to 5pm, which means we spend almost all our time in school. All the important moments in life, we experienced together. I know graduation is supposed to be a happy occasion, but for me it just felt like my childhood crumbling.
Thats very interesting, what country is this?
What country?
what do you do before 12 then?
10 whole hours, you probably don’t have homework then and just do the work at school
@@letsdothis1543 i bet it's an Asian country, maybe the Philippines
I live in Europe and never went to a prom, where I could relive this situation or maybe I had something similar, but I guess because of Movies and stuff like that I could really feel it and I felt so sad, like someone just left me. It is fascinating and makes me sad at the same time.

I'm gonna straight up start crying if I take the time to type out how this song makes me feel. It reminds me of the crippling loneliness I had to deal with all through the end of middle school and all of highschool. I remember going to my first school dance ever and just sitting outside by myself listening to everyone else laughing and having fun while I just sat in silence missing all of my old friends and thinking about why it was so difficult for me to make new ones. I remember trying to listen to all my favorite songs with my earbuds but not feeling any upbeat or positive emotions from any of my favorite songs at the time, completely void of any enjoyment from it. To this day, I wonder where all my old friends are now and what they're doing with their lives...
Damn dude, I hope ur okay

I was sort of the same. I failed so all my friends graduated before me and so I was left with little time to make new ones and the ones that I did “befriend” weren’t actual friends just acquaintances. Didn’t go to prom because I knew I’d just be sitting alone but graduation I did go to
Prom night, you’ve been waiting for this moment since you were but a small child. You’ve made every finishing touch to complete your outfit and you’re ready to finally experience the evening of your dreams. You drive to the unfamiliar building at which your dance is being held. You have made plans to meet a few of your friends to enjoy the night with you. You arrive and look into your pocket mirror to make sure you look your best. You walk through a dimly lit path decorated with vines and flowers, surrounded by couples who are making their way to the entrance of the building. As you step inside, overwhelming music washes over you like a wave and you pause to gather your thoughts before proceeding to meet your friends. Forwards, through poorly-lit halls, you find the ballroom. You step through a door that is decorated with streamers and to your dismay, your crush is beside the door with their friends. You gaze at your feet and shuffle through the maze of people who seem to surge like the oceans tide. Slightly disheveled, you surround yourself with the familiarity of your friends and join in on their conversation. You dance until your feet hurt, eventually deciding to retreat to the halls to sit in peace for a little while. While walking back to the main entrance of the ballroom, you see your crush dancing on amidst all of your classmates. You pause to watch as they tenderly hold their partner and gracefully spin in time with the music. Suddenly, your body begins to feel heavy and emotions cloud your thoughts. You turn away from the crowded room and walk with a fast pace, the music fading as you move farther away from its source. You make your way through the building, passing couples who are kissing in the fluorescent light cast from the ballroom. Soon, you find yourself in an empty hallway with the music soft and muffled in the background. Your pace slows and you look around the corridor. You sit against the wall, the frosty tile underneath you causing you to shiver. You wrap your arms around yourself and begin to cry, not bothering to make sure you’re still alone. You feel lonely and forgotten. Who would’ve guessed that your perfect night would end in the dark hall of an unfamiliar building.

So I was homeschooled and never had the opportunity to experience what the public school was like, which honestly was probably blessing. Nonetheless, this video gives me the feeling as if I was there. Boy does it take the mind off worthless troubles but focuses me on memories that could be made.
So glad you enjoyed it and that it can make you feel closer to the experience :)
I'm homeschooled. too I've always wanted to experience what the regular school kids what have done. so I fell you in that sense.
Wow, all of y’all stories are amazing. It’s just crazy to think so many human
beings have so many different backgrounds about one magical event.
i agree
I saw the girl i loved kiss someone in front of me in prom. She actually invited me there and it was the only reason i went there. Really thought she loved me back in that way. They danced throughout the night and i watched cause it made me happy seeing her happy. Cried my eyes off when i returned home.
dude i actually teared up a little reading this, stay strong bro
Kind of the same thing happened to me, multiple times actually, and i just cant over her, i feel like she does it on purpose, she acts cute and wants me to be in love with her even tho she doesnt want anything with me, and it destroys me.
@@ezkarre1978 I'd say just leave her but I know it's not as simple as that
@@mikaylacveta That's like way wrong... if anything, they'd be the Comedic Best-Friend character to the MC and is Later Friend-Zoned.
R.I.P.
Imagine sitting alone a prom, then this song comes on. I probably wouldn’t be able to function
I got taken out of school because I got bullied a lot, I missed all the dances, hearing music like this makes me wonder what could have been, sort of like a nostalgia for things I've never experienced, I don't really know how to say it, but what I do know is that you should cherish every moment you have on this Planet and live life to the fullest.
We only have one life, best make it as fun as you can :3
goddamn
Something similar happened with my rodeo prom, a girl I had been friends with since the beginning of the school year, I even helped her get with the bf she had. Eventually he broke up with her and we started getting closer… I took her to my rodeo prom after bringing her on a date. I’m in 9th grade btw and well, we had fun and I slow danced with her and loved her so much. We both eventually went separate ways that night and I woke up so happy only to be crushed into oblivion when she started leaving me on open while I was working the next day…she eventually replied saying she had fun but will never get with me and such or ever try to be close to me and such pretty much. “Just friends” and it hurt so much. She just said she wasn’t attracted to me and the pain that had was so much.
After that we never really talked again, our convos are dry, we don’t talk anymore actually. She mainly ignores me in school and it’s just painful. The new employee at work also turns out to be her brothers girlfriend and while the girlfriend doesn’t have anything against me turns out the whole family hates me and I don’t even know why..
I acted with manner and chivalry and tried to make it the best night I could for her and spent a lot on her too,
Life really just does move on doesn’t it?
Hope your doing well.
i feel you bro, but keep going on with your own life, if you put yourself out there for her and she still didnt reciprocate in the end, then you deserve better, but you have to believe that yourself, keep going man and you’ll find someone you deserve :)
same bro
Sadly I aint got any depressing story, I'm just here to enjoy the music.
I have blocks in my throat that make it difficult to socialize because yk I can’t talk I just open my mouth but nothing comes out
@@Koenig-Kikyou that’s the same with me, but only when I try to talk to my crush, I try to say something and then I can’t say anything.

sadly? nah that’s a good thing
class of 2020. Never had a prom and will never have.
feels weird. i’ve been going to this school for 9 years now, 9 years of fun, 9 years of tears, 9 years of breakdowns, 9 years of hallway crushes, 9 years of running down the hallway with your classmates, 9 years of throwing anger at teachers.. 9 years that i‘ve spend here and just can’t let it to. about to start my first year of high school this year but also the last year of middle school. the fact that we all hate it here until it comes to the last day together. this 9 years i’ve made hundreds of friends and hundreds of them left some of them stayed, lost contacts with some of them but the worst thing is leaving the school with many people still hating on your past. i’m here crying down my tears and getting ready to leave. i had soooo much fun in this school and the only thing i’m scared is if i’m gonna lose my friends from the grade above, what if i move schools and we lose contact?.. well i hope for the best, and whoever came this far to read this i just want to wish you luck in your life and just to remember we all live once so just to remind you if you don’t take a risk you will lose a chance.
About 4 years ago now, I left my old school, on valentine's Day, and left a hellhole of a school where I was loved to a paradise of a school where I was tormented and loathed.
I was mocked in a peculiar way, being as short as I was, I was immediately the attention of the tallest girl at my school, day 2 she told me she loved me, I knew she was joking and she laughed it off, I knew it wasn't that easy, but she kept pushing despite already having known it was a joke, a whole term or two faded of the same being hit on and prom arrived.
I went to prom with no one, I went to grab a drink, sat down at a bench, she asked me to dance, I was immediately pulled into her arms, and flung around like a goddamn ragdoll, I couldn't even touch the ground, I spun and spun, laughing with joy as at last I don't think she was joking anymore, I didn't care anyway, but it would've been nice to see some sincerity for once.
Then I felt everyone's eyes on me, in a daze, she had spun us to the centre of the room, and nobody was dancing, just staring at us two spinning, her hurtling me in her arms, I felt a sharp pain like hundreds of knives go through my chest, and at that gut feeling, I could tell she was startled, and I could tell she was about to drop me out of an anxiety attack, seeing everyone stare at the both of us, and as I thought, she did, she dropped me, and I wish I stayed and assisted her to calm down and assure her, but instead I ran, down the hall and hid, no one came looking for me, I all I could see was a sight similar to this one, I never thought I'd feel so anxious in my life but it killed me that day, not because I loved her, that wasn't the case, but because I saw her true self for the first time, and instead of staying for who she was, I ran because she was vulnerable, I was vulnerable, and I felt like a selfish prat since that day.
I went to prom two hours ago and I can confirm this is 100 percent accurate.
the hope to be chosen by someone is why i'm still here.
it didn't happen at prom, but i'm still waiting.
or it may never come, due to not knowing anyone more than a classmate level.
Find anyone with an interest of yours and build. Don't be a loner like me
@@TheStickCollector man I’m wishing you the best
Same. Everyone in my age having gf's and bf's while I'm just here sitting alone with no one to talk to
There was a girl i had a crush on in high school (and according to her friends years later she had a crush on me too), i regret not dancing with her, she wore a yellow dress with curls in her hair, she looked beautiful but i was just a skinny shy nerd who had no confidence, i often wonder where my life would've gone if i had danced with her.
I'll never get the chance now though as she died at age 23 of Leukaemia.

Hey man, i just read this and I'm in that position now. I am a Indian born Canadian student. I had been having a crush on an Italian girl for a while now. Shes very shy but sweet. However, she doesn't seems to start conversations first. I always start it. I just worry that I might be very annoying too. She is a foreign student who might probably go back to Italy in graduation of highschool. I don't know if should stop or keep trying. Is it worth it?
@@govindvarma4995 do you mean you're Indian like the country or native north american indian?
Cos Italians don't really agree with interracial relationships, so that might be a factor
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33
I actually immigrated from India in 2018 to Canada. So interracial relationships might be an issue. That why I mentioned this. I don't think it's an issue for my family but for her family it might be, I don't even know 🤧
This is the closest thing to a prom memory I’ll ever have. A fair few people hated me at my school due to a fun mix of rumors/gossip, so I was formally uninvited. They were able to do that because it was student-run, and the school wasn’t hosting one due to the pandemic. I was already dressed up and ready to go when I got the text saying “we won’t be able to accommodate you.” I do like the feels this gives me tho.
one of my good friends had died in a school shooting maybe a couple of weeks ago in the Michigan shootings and one of the last things they said to me was "look man i believe in you. you'll find the girl of your dreams , thats a fact. dont give up hope lil bro it'll all get better soon i promise." then he went off to school, and those were his last words to me. I found the girl of my dreams, he really believed in me when no one else did. I still wonder to this day, why it had to be him. He was a brother to me.
Hits different when you're that one kid who eats alone at lunch and who's usually always alone because they don't know how to talk to people. You're excluded from everything and on prom you sit there all alone with noone by your side (contrary to the song playing)
Edit : hi guys, I found friends. And I'm doing better.
So true
I have been in that situation but somehow some weirdos Got instrested on me and later start talking and FINNALY he introduce me to everyone else and that's change my life

This song makes me feel like I've missed something in my life and I don't know what it is.
"True sadness is not when you want something you can't have, but when you lose something you already had"
Im gonna miss school, not the classmates, not the teachers, but that feeling of learning something every day and not feeling like a dumbass. merry christmas everyone.
Facts g
Tf I’m graduating next year I’m going to miss seeing people, making friends and thinking abt the memories w them, the teachers that helped me, walking into classes and getting the nervous feeling on the first day of a new school year, the learning was fun sometimes but it was stressful and stress made me sad and give up so I won’t be missing that.
@@lfufyxh9818 facts also
you can still do that. it's called google. learning doesn't end after highschool
L opinion
You tread through the hallways during the school prom the party is still going hard late at night. You walk and walk look at the empty classroom remembering your times here as a student. You remember the people you met, the people you talked too, and the people who were just there in the backround. It hurt to remember those things as you end your highschool life after this prom, you dont want to let go of this place and the people here. They mean the world to you. The music is drowned out by the multiple halls you passed by but it echoes to you as if its calling you. Then you realize that the past is done and the last thing you can do to remember is to just join the celebration back in the gym and have yourself one last laugh here. One last laugh for the road. One last laugh for everyone that was here on this road that will soon fork. Never to merge again.
these comments don't usually hit me but this one made my heart super heavy and made me shiver, thanks for this.
This one made me tear up a bit cause it's my last year of high school. It makes me feel bad because all three years were wasted. My freshman year was shit, my sophomore year was cut in half cause of COVID, my junior year was cancelled because of covid. Now all of a sudden I'm a senior prepping for adulthood and everything is going so fast, i didn't get to do the things i wanted to as a teen, i wasn't able to go to dances, make friends, nothing. Now I'm gonna graduate with people i never truly got to know, and I'll never see them again
@@oDM0o and I thought my prom getting cut was bad cause of COVID, seems like I'm going your same direction aswell.

It’s prom night and you look amazing just like most of your freinds, after an amazing time dancing and socialising with the people you grew up with while stuffing your face with food and drinks from the buffet, you start feeling sick. And while your freinds are busy dancing you decide to head to the bathroom. You push the doors open and hope the bathroom isn’t too crowded, but as soon as you lift your head you see the hall way steeped in darkness. You had never seen it like this so you stop almost forgetting your stomach ache. This was the place of so many memories, and so many stories that made you who you are, a hall that lead to places where you spent most of your life so far, a place you see in the morning at noon and the afternoon. But the vision of empty it at night came with the alarming realisation that you will never walk through here like you once did. The cold blue ceiling lights and the white floor drowned in solitude are telling you that you’ll be a stranger here once you walk out the door for the last time. Suddenly a soft song starts to play in the room and the noise dies down as everyone starts slow dancing, and while you should go back and dance with your date, it feels right to stay here a second longer, mourning the life your about to lose, and imagining the one your about to start.
My school lasts from 1-9 grade. I felt very burnt out by my friends and when we graduated I felt so much better but I still miss the simple times with them. Now school is all about studying. No trips, nothing special.
It's always been like that here in India so we don't experience this kinda shit ever
You got out of the washroom as this song plays, making your way back down the hallway, but you made a split second calculation and decided to linger, having the divine moment and an entire hallway to yourself, even the dull dim light seems fresh at this golden time and space. Jokes on them, this is the best spot.
Every time i listen to this song i feel like i’m drifting away from reality. like i’m nothing to anybody, i never mattered to anybody. but there is always some hope right?
There is always hope
@Philza_Kin My hope is that I make peace with the overbearing reality of space-time, that this feeling you describe is an actual facility with the scope of what we (as a species) face: our lives are subliminal blips that cannot be measured on any scale that makes sense to a singular mind, our terrestrial domain is a universally insignificant mote of dust. That we are mostly eternally lifeless before birth and after death, that blip of life between the eternally lifeless bookends. Within the span of that blip on our trivial dust mote, we have brief moments to transmit an abstract message and receive an obscure reply. Hope is moot; through your comment alone, you matter.

To everybody here, if you see a chance to be with the love of your life, take it before someone else does. If things don’t work out, trust me, I know it’s hard to get over it, but keep in mind that there’s an even better person out there somewhere, hoping to find someone like you.
I hated highschool. I hated prom even more. The music was artificial and shallow, but so were the students. I guess it fit on some level. I almost enjoyed prom, knowing it was the last night of the last year I'll have to see those faces again. The booming room gave me too much anxiety so I slipped out into the hall for a breather. I decided I would just head home, I had no place there anyway. Before I left that hallway for the last time, with my locker contents in my bag, someone left the gym and ran up to me. It was the girl who sat in front of me in math, the one I always thought was cute but was too hip and popular for me to approach. She exhaled "I always thought you were cute," kissed my cheek and then ran off back to the gym. I took the night bus home thinking about it. I still think about it some nights.
It's what made prom memorable for me.

pov : your crush slow dancing with a great guy in prom while you walk alone in the hall trying to get home
I remember seeing a hallway like this on the day before spring break 2020. I stayed afterschool with some friends and was walking down the hallway to the bus canopy. I was sitting in the bus with my friends when a teacher came into the bus and said "Guys, there will be no school tomorrow." We were obviously hyped since we get an extra day in spring break, but none of us knew that was our last day of school for 7th grade in-person. I always remember this because my 7th grade year was probably my best year to have friends since I had atleast 3 friends in every class. It hurts realizing none if us were able to say goodbye because none of us knew that would be our last day of school before we all went to lockdown. I still went back to the same school for 8th grade, but I feel that I waa then mostly alone in school. After returning to school, I just turned into this shy kid because almost none of my friends return for in-person school and stayed online. It was only in my last period that it felt like I was back in 7th grade. Then it was my last day of school for 8th grade, and having such a good time, but one of our classmate wasn't there (a very sweeft girl friend for us only boys in the class) and it really sucked because with all of us having fun, we could've seen her true self in having fun (and I made my mind and was going to ask her out, but I realize now she never felt something for me except being a friend). I remember leaving the classroom because my bus was called first and saying "Bye, see ya'll later." without knowing I "see ya'll *later*", I walked through that same hallway and knew it would get worse because we were going to highschool and almost everyone was going to a highschool, but the one I was going to. Right now, freshman year, I again only have my last period feeling (barely) like 7th grade with only 1 friend to keep me company. I don't know why I wrote all of this, but just the song and image got to me hard.
Having ones you've made memories with become memories does hurt.. but nothing hurts more than realizing you've become someone's memory yourself.
idk if its just me hearing this but i like that you can hear the electricity of the lights. makes it feel more realistic
I can hear it too
Me to I think it's the beet of the song
This comment section is making me sad so I’m going write something to hopefully bring some light here:
It’s prom night. You’ve been preparing for this for a while. Your outfit is nice and your hair is perfectly done. You’ve been dancing for about an hour, your feet are getting tired and the blaring lights are starting to give you a headache. You look over to your friend and ask, “Wanna get out of here for a second?” They nod in agreement and you to go into the hall. You sit down against the row of lockers and you two begin to chat. The dance room music is muffled now and the hall is dark. The lights shining through the door paint you faces blue and reflect trails of glitter on the ground. Your friend and you begin to chat. Nothing much, but the sound of your laughter echos through the halls. After telling a funny story you take a sip of your punch and your friend finishes laughing. They smile and say, “You know, I’m really glad I’m friends with you.” You smile in agreement and say, “You make it easy.” You head back onto the dance floor and as the night draws to a close, you and your friend load back into your car and begin to head back. On the way you stop at a local pizzeria and have some hot pizza as a late night snack. All in all the night was fun, and you can’t wait until you guys hang out again.
It's sad the only person a called a friend I didn't see at all besides him walking to his mom's car. I want to experience this
:' ^ (
Yh no friends can’t relate
Thanks
One difference I don't have friends
I remember when I was supposed to go to prom for the first time, I was ecstatic! I felt like I was going to have the time of my life, I really felt good about this. I had skipped my first two chances to go and I regretted it, I was lonely in school but had “friends” I had no one I could talk to, so when the idea of going to prom came up I was hesitant but alas I decided this was my year, I planned on going with a girl I liked at the time. We had hung out almost everyday of that year and last minute she cancelled on me saying “I snuck out to go hang with (insert other boys name here) and got caught so I can’t go to prom sorry.” I felt hurt. I didn’t know what to do or where to go.
I ended up going with my friend and I just sat there thinking about what happened, I talked to my friends a little bit, got a glass of punch and food and the person handing out food asked “you okay sweetie?” And I just teared up sat down and said “yeah for the most part” and sat there listening to the music. It sounded like this. Out of range, under water, far away, like it was leaving. it sounded cloudy…… I got up and took pictures then I left, and sat outside and just layed on the sidewalk in front of my car listening to the music and thinking about the times I had with her.
Too bad I can’t re-live those moments, I would love to go back and do it all over again.
i hope you doing well ❤
You guys are all amazing, and very special. Thank you again for coming back. ♥

Because I’m on the autism spectrum, I’ve always been bad at verbal (and sometimes) physical communication. But when I was little, I always imagined me finding some boy or just someone in general to dance with. Platonic or romantic or something else. But I was pulled out of school in 3rd grade and then put in homeschool. Seeing a face is like some sort of uncanny valley effect to me now. I no longer know how to talk to anyone, I don’t know what non-basic emotions are, I’m depressed, I’m inadequate, my perception on reality is warped. This song only helps nurture those feelings, and call me crazy, but I’m pretty sure that’s something I don’t want.
Hope you will make it.this particular video may bring the worst feelings out of us but we must take it as a dream to chase instead of something that has already gone past us

I get emotional very easy, and going through these comments while listening to the video is just the perfect solution in making me cry my heart out
My prom was cold. My lady had left me a few weeks prior and I seen her there with her new man. I had fun by myself but until you take a look back you don’t realize how much fun you missed out on
Damn, this reminds me of my senior prom. I was the kid that didn't care for school dances and only went because a friend invited me as his date, so I wasn't upset when neither of my parents wanted to go due to not wanting to see each other (they separated on bad terms and were in the middle of a very lengthy divorce). But watching from the sidelines and seeing all my friends and classmates dance with their parents made me realize that I wished they'd set aside their differences for one night to be there for me. I had to go out into the hallway to try and stop myself from crying.
The song is beautifully depressive even if you're not sad sometimes you need to stay away & feel sad...
All the colors wash around you as you run. Seeing the person you thought was your true love dancing and having a good time with someone else is too much for you. Tears stream down your face as you slam the doors open, streaking past the couples kissing in the corner, trying to get away from it all. The music gets quieter and the lights get dimmer as you keep running. You trip and fall, curling up in a ball, thinking your entire life should just end right then and there. Yet, after what felt like forever, your tears suddenly stop. As you look up, the familiar smell of the school, the dull lights, and the distant music (that you’ve sworn should’ve ended by now) slowly give you feelings of comfort and peace. Somehow forgetting the tragedy that happened that night, you stand up and begin roaming around the hallways. You occasionally brush the lockers with your hand as you feel pleasure distract you from life. The music never fades (did this song start over?) and you realize you don’t recognize these hallways anymore. How do I get back to the gym again? But the soothing ambiance calms your nerves, helping you forget your worries. You continue walking the foreign yet familiar halls, believing your world is perfect, the same song playing on repeat as you tread along the Edge of Eternity forevermore.

what i would do to just have one more day of high school with all my friends. i don’t want it to be a special day, i just wish i had one more normal boring day and i would treasure every moment of it, all the people i trusted so much, and now we don’t speak at all. quarantine and covid ruined so many things for me. including my last 2 years of high school.
Reminds me of how lonely I am in this world i don’t need anyone I can make it on my own, right?
@panda man you can
I tried that and Failed... I've learned to adapt as things are constantly changing
absolutely you can
Yes ur right i can have fun without my bestie. bc i got a trauma feeling thats why i only have 1 friends :/
Its not failed making fun by myself But im failed at how i treated Him/her
This song makes me think of a woman, i had contact with. Eventually she ghosted me. As more time goes on she grows so distant, but she also grows closer to me. I'm 100% sure she doesn't care at all about me, the way i do with her.
I will always remember her and the range of emotions i had when conversing with her. The muffled sound is like someone is moving away from you, but you can still hear it.
I’ve only been to one school dance and it was the loneliest feeling I’ve ever experienced. Just sitting down and watching everyone else have fun with friends, every time I would try to talk with someone I got pushed aside as they went to talk with someone else. I couldn’t hold back tears any longer so I went to the bathroom and just stood in a stall crying for at least 10 minutes and then waiting a little longer to go back to the dance so that people couldn’t tell that I was crying as my eyes would be pink. I’m glad to finally tell someone how I truly felt that night as I have just kept this to myself for a while.
I spent mine at a gym. I feel your pain.
You aren’t alone on this feeling. We longed for something that wouldn’t be achieved
Damm. Relatable , hope your good now GODBLESS🙏❤️💯
Listening this makes me kinda sad because I’m a senior right now and proms not to far away. I never enjoyed school, I never made long lasting friendships. I have one person left who I feel comfortable talking to. Going to prom feels terrifying because I’ll see these people who used me, ignored me, or forgot I existed over the last 4 years all in one big room. It’s a lonely feeling.
I can feel the anxiety from being around all the people and escaping to the hall. Gives me chills.
this really made me feel like i was floating
imagine this song playing in the back while meeting ur soulmate mann i wish 😔😔
The CZcams algorithm must know that I have prom tomorrow lmao.
There was a girl I was really into at the time and I thought this was it... time to finally live my life and to get out there. I got the prom sign ready and everything. Things didn't really go as planned but she ended up saying yes anyway. I got a suit together and I was really excited to go through my final year of highschool with a bang and a few days before prom, the pandemic hit. I lost half of my year and everything I was excited for just disappeared in front of my eyes. I moved out the state for college and two years of online school later I think about how my life would be different if that never happened. Would I have stayed there close to the people knew? I texted the girl I asked to prom a few times over the years asking how she has been and helping her through some things and just about a month or two ago when I asked how she was she just left me on read and never texted me again. I'm guessing that is the end of that, and the last thing that was tying me down to the place is gone. I'm hoping to transfer out of a community college into a 4 year university where I can finally live my life again. No more online school, no more second-guessing myself. Just going with the flow and going to as many things as I can. Even if I'm scared and anxious, I can't let that get in the way of my life and how I want to live it...
We all can make it brah
Got any updates man? That is one hell of a story
Never been to prom but everytime I listen space song while walking into a quiet hallway or streets, it's just sentimental.
My god, this is art
Who else just kept replaying the video while reading the sad comments 😭
This makes me think that everything went wrong and so you've run from the dance and now you lean against the lockers realizing you're alone and you slowly break down as tears stream as you hear all their laughter
To think we were complaining that high school was pain, yet when we get at the end, we look back and regret not enjoying ourselves during those hard but amazing years where we met friends, and discovered ourselves. The nostalgia this video brings me is undescribable.
How is this so realistic?
eq my friend. eq.
@@actuallythepie these videos would've amazed me before I got into music production but now I see they're pretty easy to make
@@frontlinebeats7581 This is me next year lol
Experience
They play the song in another room and record.
Never been on a prom because there is none in here. But i know this feeling,the emotion. Like going home first after hanging out with Friends, walking home and still hear faint laughing.
Prom night is both a beginning, and an end. it marks the start of the end of High School, and the beginning of life elsewhere. Due to my own failures, I spent the night prior to prom night behind bars. because of this, when I got there for prom, my crush was dancing, just like I wanted to ask her to. She was just dancing with someone else. we locked eyes for a brief moment, and in that moment, I knew pain. oh, I´m no stranger to emotions hurting me... but the look in her eyes told me all I needed to know. she looked at me, and smiled. she KNEW what I was feeling, and it amused her. I walked away. never looked back. she reached out to me several times in the years that followed, but I just... couldn´t bring myself to try again. she´s passed away now, but I can´t help but look back to that day and wonder.... what if? it´s pointless to wonder about such things, but I do.
its good she died,she SMILED at you in pain.
get better man,you have one chance at life,make the most out of it!
Last time, I never got to dance with a girl I had a crush on. The next prom, I just went and danced with the girls who never got a dance partner. Dunno if that was a good idea or not but one of them seemed happy, afterwards.
No it was, sometimes is good to do something bigger than yourself. Ik you didn't get to dance with your crush but I guarantee none of the girls will forget it.
Wish u were at my school in prom last year. Wouldve made it suck less
You did good ^^
i’m just imagining this song playing muffled like this then all the sudden BOOM- you lock eyes with your soulmate and it gets louder and everything makes sense
I'm reading the comments while listening to this. Enough to make a grown man cry.
During homecoming I had an anxiety attack, and I had to leave, this is how it felt
I wish I would have been asked to prom just once in my life
Damm i prolly wont be asked tbh but aye fuq it right
critical hit, right in the feels
I never went to prom. I don’t regret it either. But the image of this high school hallway and song make me nostalgic of high school. I graduated 4 years ago…
It was the end of school, the finale. In so many ways was it emotional. All of the people you know, may possibly be gone, forever. It's that uncertainty that kills you, tears you down into tears, emotions spewing out, uncontrollably, its a tough time. For me, the girl I wanted to go out with went out withs someone else. With prom being something you look forward to since freshman year, it hurts. When your in that school, for one of the last times, your in an indescribable place, a place of sorrow, depression, and anxiety. That music is wrapping around you, like vines, your ears not nearly processing enough for you to grasp what in the world is happening around you, and yet you do. You know that this is it, the finale, and you know that you need to grow up. All of those "what if's" will stick to you like a paperweight, and you're going to have to live with it. This song represents so much of how high school is, and there is no better song to pick to represent prom. It's that one last night for you to do what you've always wanted to do, that one last night to be a kid, that one last night to be in presence of immaturity. If I were you, do the shit you want to do, you don't have forever, and when that time hits, when you realize you need to give that ideas up because responsibilities are hitting you like a truck, you better he satisfied.
As someone who lives in the middle east, I've never been to prom, and will never be to one.
But this gives me a..squeazy feeling(?)
As if I am here, and I have memories where me and my friends are roaming through the very hall I am looking at right now, people are enjoying their time, before parting ways and never seeing each other again.
This feels oddly..faded, and unrecoverable. Just like the times you had with your friends.
This is oddly accurate, it’s honestly just an empty feeling after the night is over since you know that is the last time you will probably ever be around all these people at one time
This is as close to prom as I ever been
Everyone can imagine being right here in this high-school... Even you're European or other, this kind of scene are always present in films and series. I feel sad but excited at the same time. You touched me right in the heart dude. Have a good life my friend.
As an Indian I can't relate at all
I've never been to prom, but we were close to getting one.
One time, at school. I bumped into my friend who happened to hang out with during when I was younger. We hung out again. He introduced me to his friends, who I was quite familiar with. We became a friend group consisting of 3 boys and a girl (me.) All my friends at class or at school were usually boys.. They often have the same interests as me rather than girls.
After a few months, we moved to another level. The group got kinda separated since we had different classrooms. Teacher announced that we'll have no more school in the next day. COVID came, we didn't have school for.. i don't know how long. We didn't get to say goodbye..
Luckily, after a few months, the school announced they were doing online classes. I didn't get in contact with the group since, again, we were in different classes.
After a few months of online learning, we graduated. And now, i regret not saying goodbye to them. I wish I could turn back time just to hug or just wave bye at them. i wish I could just move on easily but I can't for some reason. i miss running around the hallways and corridors and annoying the teachers with all my classmates.. I'm not ready to let go..
i just popped in headphones and danced around my room to this. thank u
Damn, made my night, listened to it, just needed this, I can imagine myself waking down the hall, good stuff.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it bro ❤️
The pain in the moment stings, but the memories they make cut deeper than any blade.
You slowly exit the party, as you walk out you stare at the hallway, as you remember your memories and your past, and where you met your best friends that left you. You slowly walked around the hallway and broke down in tears. The music was muffled from the party room, it sounded distant and lost, just like your past. You slowly exited the hallway and wiped your tears, you wanted to end your life, it was miserable. Zaki - may 2022. (Please don't steal!)
this was on december 10th 2021, i probably won't be seen and most likely forgotten, but...
I was getting dressed for a dance at school, all hyped up since it was my first dance after 2 years and I was in a new school and had new "friends", my sister and cousin were also coming along, you can kinda see where this is going, our uncle drops us off and we walk to the school, we make it into the cafeteria and start talking with other people, i look around for people to talk and they all seem busy, so i just wait for someone to talk to me, an hour later im still waiting.. keeping the positive attitude up i still wait, eventually i go to the bathroom and start listening to music, realizing that all i can hear is the muffled songs playing, people having fun, while im over here with no one to talk to, no friends after realizing to myself, and just a side character that never really gets that much attention in other people's lives, so i grab my earbuds and just sit there crying in the stall, but i felt... at peace with myself for some reason... as if, i never needed friends in my life.... i text my girlfriend about the dance and how it's going and she tells me to go out, so i do, i walk around and go sit at the corner where no one's there, out of nowhere people start coming to me and i start avoiding them, this song came on i kept avoiding everyone, feeling at peace with myself, despite everyone getting angry, i felt... happy, only very few people can make me happy and i rarely get myself happy, and i enjoyed this experince, i took two other pictures of me and the dance ended, i left the cafeteria and had the urge to run and shove everyone in my way, i ran, as fast as i could to the exists and walked home slowly, the entire time i felt at peace. despite having people yell my name to grab my attention last minute, the urge to drown everyone out and have this song on repeat was my only priority and all that i cared about, i left everyone back at the dance and got rid of everyone execpt for my girlfriend, family, and online friends, i feel. at peace living like this.... even if the entire world hates me, i still feel at peace...
Dont worry, the world doesnt hate you, im glad you were in peace!
@@zhongli1139 I know it doesn't, but people got the message and i stopped trying having friends and just stuck with the ones i trurly care about, and i feel happy with life
@@Joj0swrld Thats good that your doing well! ^_^
Damn, I miss that feeling too. I remember there was a time that I went on a deployment, I was on an aircraft carrier working a 12 hour day shift, then as soon as it hit midnight, "its finally quiet", is my initial thought but then came by some people who did training.
This pissed me off as I wanted to listen to music without any noise, so I decided to go out into the catwalk where the only lights you can see were the moon and it's reflection. I started looking for any music that I downloaded on Spotify, and this came up. At first it was okay, but then it started becoming my favorite.
A few nights later, I disappointed a lot of people, and even got punished for it. All my friends and peers who looked down on me really threw me in a bad time, and so I decided to be alone in the catwalk during night time.
Put on my earbuds and as this song came up, tears started flowing down. Moments later of repeating this song over and over again, I calmed down and felt at peace. As someone who handles stress without nicotine and tobacco products, this was one of the few times I ever felt bliss living in this shit hole.
I'm so glad music exists.
Edited: grammar.
I have lots of “friends” but only one make me feel at home so I understand you. Even just having myself makes me feel happy
This songs remind me of how I shouldn't get comfortable with friends and classmates, all because of the realization that I won't know them in a few years, just faint memories. The more I get closer to them, the more I'll just cry and miss them when I can't see them ever again. People ask why I'm distant from everyone in class, this is really why. I'd love to have a few good friends, but just knowing I'll have to live with the pain of a great friend who helped me through school is hard. I only have about 3 friends, who I'm not trying to get close to at all. And love.. when I fall into the dark black hole of love I snap back to the realization, but then I get sucked back in. This is all because I'll be moving in maybe 2 years. And I really can't fall in love, but I literally can't control it, but also as I see her talking to another boy, jealousy just grabs me and pulls me back into competition. I can't escape. Yes, I love her, but can't. It's complicated.
Trust me when I say this, Just do it. Life is short and you probably won’t get the chance again. Make friends. Have fun. Fall in love. It breaks your heart but in the end you’ll look back and be glad you did all of those things. You only live once bro. Just. Go. For it.
@@aviatorjames512 Hm. You’re right
You are so wrong! Please make as many friends and memories as you can, these are one of the best years of your life. You will regret having such mindset years after, when it will be too late, trust me. I wish you all the best
live in the present but be conscious of the future dude life is so beautiful so when you look back in the future you'll at least be able to say you've had good memories rather than purposefully distancing yourself from others which will hurt you in the long term much more than what you think rn
What’s that quote? « It’s better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. » or something along those lines.
pov: you’re slow dancing with your crush alone in this hall as the song plays
Listening to this feels like I’m isolated but in reality just needing for someone to care for me the way I would care for them !
this gives me a feeling of regret,
like a feeling of going to a prom, and just having that feeling of emptyness and depression.
i have never gone to a prom but it feels like i have, it feels like my life will never amount to anything,
we all can dream. but the posability of changing the world is slim to none.
the music makes me feel like im living life incorrectly.
some people have a solid reason to get up in the morning,
jobs, friends, family and others
but me and you, we dont have tat,
the reason we get up in the morning is to be.
we dont want to live but we dont want to commit suicide either.
we just are.
we exist.
we have feelings... maybe.
we might never matter to this world.
and we might not matter to ourselves.
but somewhere. just somewhere in this little planet, there is a chance,
a chance we wouldnt just be living our lives in the internet.
there could be chance for all of us.
just remember.
neither you nor me matter.
we are nothing.
but...
there is always a chance.
thanks for reading. adios
hot damn that was long
Bro nxt time you should go cuz these are the things that we could remember 🙂.
We don't have prom that's y m telling you this .
I exist for family and future, that is all apparently
@@TheStickCollector but dont we?
is there something else then your family and your future?
@@jackmabrouk probably hobbies I could form. Basically I need to have a purpose to get something out of my life
Mate put this on Spotify this is a jam
This gives crazy nostalgia that I took for granted. I remember I went to the senior sunset event where all of us seniors collectively go to the recreation center and party all night and swim all night till 4am. I remember I sat down with strangers who I never shared a class with and just sat there in silence. The kind of silence where we just knew our lives are changing and that we're heading to the real world anxiously waiting what comes next that we can subconsciously understand each other's fears in a way. It was surreal...
This video was posted right after I went to my senior prom. Wow. I am in love with this. It just feels so nostalgic. I’m so glad that I was able to go. I reconnected with my friend there, I have a video of her dancing and am so thankful for that. Whenever I think of prom, I think of that fond memory and her. She was killed this year. How times change. 💙
Hope you're doing okay, prayers to your friend..... may her sould rest in peace
@@tannaikamath773 that is so kind of you, thank you so much.
praying for you and your friend! I know that must have been really hard for you.
Killed?
@@Ray-yg6dg thank you so much! ☺️ definitely has been. Still feel like I’m in shock but just thankful for the time she was here.
