The lyrics are something I needed to hear but didn’t want to accept
Same exact same situation for me.. I had to break free from my ex with untreated BPD.. it was one of the hardest things ive ever done..
Felt, I've had to break chains with alot of what I thought was close people.. and even people who was really close to me, but either way it was a hard tower moment to bare but just know the universe only takes away people places and things to give us better.. why?.. cause we deserve the moon and wanna be taken there!! I know I'm on a bigger better path and in a funny way can feel something coming I don't know what but it feels magical and so I thank the universe for what it has and is about to give me and most importantly I thank her for giving us waterparks and all their beautiful emotion felt music!!! 🌻🍓🦄
Totally
this was the first song in a very long time to make me cry on first listen. GOOD AS FUCK
I think this song truly shows how Knight has matured both as a songwriter and vocalist. Some of the softer notes that he is able to hit are ear candy. It is also what I believe is the most vulnerable song he has ever written. And I think sonically he is able to convey that message so well. The use of acoustic guitar, synths, and light drums is just perfect. This may be the best song that the band has ever made and released.
From my up-coming review :)
Agreed !!!
i’m literally in love with lyrics cuz it’s so close to me, it’s something personal…it feels like someone just take my own feelings and put in the song. so good, i just can’t
Yeah, somehow most of their song sound like somebody stole my thoughts. I might not know the guys or just Awsten well, but I feel like we would get along
The 21 Questions, lucky people, high definition, and fruit roll ups of the album. I love it! ❤
Totally!!!
oh god no fruit roll ups is my least favorite parx song ever 😭 but otherwise yeah hahah. closer is my favorite on this album
Why?@@roshanfey
@@loma7845 it's way too sugary and oversaturated imo. the worst offender is the lyrics tho. "i'm a little bitch for you now" is grating to hear from a thirty year old man
@@roshanfey I'm not sure what sugary music is ,but oversaturated, that makes sense i mean he had a snapchat filter over his face the first few seconds of the video. The dislike of that lyric is a fair assessment. I believe it boils down to what type of man society says men should be which is the opposite of that line. Can you explain to me what sugary music?
[Verse 1] Nothing stays the same I feel love a different way So I contemplate the change I got my space but what'd I pay for you? [Pre-Chorus] Cause I love you Or I want to But I don't know how Because I need to really feel you But we're running around Because I love you Or I want to Is it easy now? You only hit me in the evening When I'm all stressed out [Chorus] I need you closer Or I need it over Either need you closer Or I need it over [Verse 2] There's nothing left to let go It's the darkest afterglow Maybe in another life We can try to get us right No, no, no [Pre-Chorus] Because I love you Or I want to But I don't know how Because I need to really feel you But we're running around Because I love you Or I want to Is it easy now? You only hit me in the evening When I'm all stressed out [Chorus] I need you closer Or I need it over Either need you closer Or I need it over [Bridge] Cause you're the holiday I celebrate too late You're the eyes I gave up trying to captivate You're the song that I loved, but then overplayed And I'm the b-side throwaway I hope you never rain on my charade The lonely one I let myself create I got my space but what'd I pay? I've been fucked so much that I no longer wait, I sabotage and break my own heart Just in case [Pre-Chorus] So yeah I loved you Or I tried to But I don't know how Used to need you And feel you But we ran it all down Cause I loved you Or I tried to Can we be easy now? Or will it kill me On the evening That I let you down? [Chorus] I need you closer Or I need it over Either need you closer Or I need it over
this song absolutely destroyed me in a way that I cannot explain. I just got out of an almost 5 year relationship, we are 20, been together since we were 15, by eachothers sides every moment we could be until suddenly things changed. The lyricism of loving someone but not knowing how to love them in the way that would make them realize or feel it most is how I felt for months on end, and "the eyes I gave up trying to captivate", during the end of our relationship, as much as I denied it and postponed the end and acted like it wasn't coming, I could very much see it near, and I just gave up and let her string me along because she didn't want to hurt me by leaving. this song gave me a hard cry, among all of othe other ones I've had about her these past few months. Thank you, awsten.
This whole album is like massive punch to the gut in the best way possible
best song on the album for me. the final minute of this song is one of the best things this band has ever done imo
knowing this album is about religious guilt, framing this song as a breakup from christianity/god has been ridiculously healing and heartbreaking at the same time. i fucking love this band
echoing this same sentiment/experience from the islam side of things. sending love, healing, and solidarity 🧡
Wait THIS song is about a breakup with god??
These lyrics hurt me in the happiest way possible.
Intellectual property, more like intellectual (SUCH AN AMAZING PIECE OF ART IM SO IN LOVE) urmomerty…. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH
hey awsten if you’re here: 1. WHAT THE FUCK 2. what the fuck : ( 3. words are not coming good to me right now because the enormity of my emotions is hitting me but thank you so much for this album. you guys are fucking amazing.
This song has me remembering my messed up past but in a good way and I’m so grateful for it omg I know I’m gonna cry to this at some point-
THANK YOU INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY FOR CHANGING MY LIFE, I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING WORK OF ART! THANKS GUYS!!
i cried so hard to this LOL jesus chrisstttt
Probably my favorite song on the album. Thank you Waterparks for saying the words I'm too scared to say.
Awsten sang this song at the first ever Waterparks concert I've been to (also the first one in Prague). And by the end his voice got so soft and quiet, it felt like a very special moment.
claimed this song so long ago. i’m so proud of you all including jawn and lucas ofc visuals are once again incredible. i love you all so much thank you for putting my feeling out in a way that i can’t
Best song on the album by far
This song is so beautiful. My favorite song on Intellectual Property and maybe my favorite Waterparks song in general. The way so much emotion is conveyed and it doesn’t sacrifice anything musically with a great hook is so mind-blowing. Some of Awsten’s best vocals and Geoff absolutely killing it on guitar. Ottos drums remind me of an 80s ballad song, but it fits along to the melody.
the emotions in the vocals are really some of awsten’s best work yet…. Probably my favorite song on the album
Spent over a half hour listening to this track on repeat with tears silently streaming down my face
THIS BAND IS THE BEST
This somehow fits so good right now
Even though I’ve never been in a relationship, I can feel all the emotions Austin felt when writing this song. I cried and felt the deep regret that paint these lyrics. That is how you know a song is good.
ONE OF MY FAVES ON THIS ALBUM OMGG
i feel like relating to this song is so sad to think about, but at the same time so comforting to not feel alone because of situations like this ♥️
showing this to my therapist!
fav part of the visual is when the camera gets kicked slightly
This song is 10/10 forever a classic.
I’m in shambles
i hope all my dreams of becoming a big famous musician come true so i can give waterparks all the credit
Okay goosebumps the first time I listened to it. Oof good song🤩😍 THIS ALBUM IS SO GOOD WHAT THE
There are many Waterparks songs that have great lyrics. None though that feel like a Shakesperean tragedy/love story. Awsten shows yet again how captivating he can be with a pen and a sheet of paper. It’s not just the lyrics that make this song amazing. It’s the music behind the lyrics. It lets the words tell the story, but it sets the scene. The way it builds during the verse, letting you feel hope, and during the second verse where doubt creeps in. The anger of self-sabotage in the third. But what truly stands out to me and still brings me to the edge of tears in almost every listening of Closer, is the empty space between what remains of a simple guitar accompanied by the hauntingly quivering vocals at the end filled with mourning and loss. Awsten, thank you so much for giving this to us, 4 minutes to heart break.
