Dodie Clark - Down Lyrics
I woke up as heavy as lead
An ocean of worry weighs me down in bed
But there's things to do, there's a life to live
Must ignore my stupid head
Friends float above in the wind
Bright balloons pulling them up as they grin
But there's things to do, there's a life to live
Must ignore the things I think
OooOOOoooOOoh
It's like walking around with a stone for a heart
People swimming in honey as your life falls apart
I felt like you once, I wish I could shout
It's like walking around with a stone for a heart
People swimming in honey as your life falls apart
It's cold and it's dark and there's no way out
I felt like you once, I wish I could shout
You never can undo the brain
Now it knows of the holes, it will fall as it's trained
Cause there's things to do
There's a life to live
Watch them laugh
While you stay in, the rain

Dodie Clark Down Comments
i revisit this one a lot
I LOVE YOUR HAIR!!
I needed this today 🥰
downs lyrics are kinda rlly rlly important to me, i’ve been feeling so so so strange lately and all i can really do is isolate myself then wonder why i have no friends and i’m so sad, i’ve really been struggling to get myself out of bed or really do anything and i’ve been actively trying to avoid school but there’s only so much school i can miss. i’m starting year 11 next week, my friend that i’m closest to is leaving the school and i haven’t even been a good friend because i spend all of my lunchtimes in the bathroom hiding because i’ve just been so exhausted??? and i absolutely HATE myself right now because i know i’m being so draining and i wish i could spend more time with her before she leaves but i cant seem to stop how i’m feeling :( i’m so nervous for school without her, it will be my second last year of schooling and i just feel so stupid sometimes because i try but i can’t get the grades i want, and i just do terrible :( or like i’ll get straight A’s (95-100%) in english for example, but when it comes time for exams my brain just stops and i get like 60-70% and i just get so frustrated, i cant deal with that again and aah i just really needed to rant sorry :(
I feel that :(
ayyy guess who's mentally unstable- that's right folks, it's me!
Hi.
I'm new here on YouTube. Trying to hit 100 subscribers.
Who's watching in 2019??
saw this first in your book. this is like the human connection i was looking for in an art
once you realise the depth of what dodie is singing about you realise how weird some of these comments are lol
Years later, this song remains one of the most relatable songs I've ever heard. Thank you, it really helps to hear sometimes.
Yay depression! It's a b***h init?
I keep hoping she'll put an updated version of this on an album
I always watch this video... It’s a real song unlike any other song ever made. And it so happened to be posted on my birthday.
so fucking sad
get a fucking life and stop crying
every girl with a ukulele sounds the same Lol
is this on spotify?
I love this little diddy
I would get so much further if I was a girl... I mean talented.
I started my first day of middle school just a few days ago, and this song hit me hard just like everyone else says because i made this friend. I got into a fight because of a dumb thing, but i should've not been mad at her, more of my "toxic friend". She thinks shes funny, smart, amazing, cool. So many times in situations she called me things like "your never gonna be up to his standards" and " why is she still your friend" me thinking shes right i ask her why and she doesnt rolls her eyes at me. This time she asked " You never made friends with her, yall she was my first friend" From that day on the girl i made friends with and the toxic friends replaced me in my friend group. I was no longer welcomed in my group of friends. We share p.e and band and i see all my old friends laugh with her and i can just feel me crying as i remember how fun it was to laugh with them. Feeling like the guy i liked doesnt even know i exsist, and as my other friends i talk to about this i feel like im just a burden of my problems to them. Sometimes i just wish the pain would go away
Here is a SINGER
Always coming back to this, one of my favourites <3
Today is a good day :)
YOU HAD BANGS????
I LOVE THE BANGS
I love this song
Thosee lyriccss!!! I'm in love
Back to days like this
Why isn't this on Spotify?! I want to listen to it 24/7
Chutiye firangiyon do something about Capitalism instead of making terrible sad ukulele songs
only really discovering your music after your most recent collab with jacob, but damn all your stuff really be hitting home
I want this on Spotify ❣️❣️❣️
So, im having a super crappy day today. I have friends that i feel dont include me in anything and it makes me goncrazy because i think about what i do wrong. For isntance im way to liud and i swar they probably talk about me constantly behind my back and i dont know what to do because im not even in hjghschool yet and i cant imagine how i would be in highschool. Id probably lose all my friends and be lonely
very touching, wonderful. cool Vocals & uke Play.
your eyes looked so beautiful in this video dodie. i love this song btw, it's my fav to play when i feel depressed, and i feel so much less alone
Ok, I skipped to a part where you were singing. I cried but not a single sound came out.
To this day this is one of my favorite videos
Me subskribbled cuz ur a mei zing.What the fuck is wrong with my grammar?
Days till I’m happy again
Sat. April 20 2019~one of the worst ones so far
B B april and may really sucked for me lol
Your little intro about good and bad days did not prepare me for the tears
please release this <3 i love this song so much xx
I have bad derealization and it’s so hard for others to understand when they don’t have it so this hit me hard
You did an amazing job of explaining just how it sometimes feels. I haven't seen very many happy days since my boyfriend of almost 5 years left me last year. It will be a year July 21st and it hasn't gotten much better for me. It seems from the comments that you have touched many lives and I hope you will continue what you're doing because you do make a difference. ♥
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Love & Hearts For You Dodie
I Love Your Songs 💖💖💖
Who else came from her book and read along to the song. 🙋🏽♀️
Leah Piper SHEHASABOOK?!
Books,Broadway And BTS YES YES. it’s called “Secrets for the Mad - Obsessions, Confessions, And Life Lessons” you can get it at target for like $15 but it’s worth it. She writes so well.
This song perfectly describes what my depression is like and how hard it is to just get things done. It’s nice to have something to relate to.
AHH! Cute singing sprite in coveralls! The cute! It's over 9000!
What happened to Monday??
i have loved this song for a long time now, and today it showed up on my recommended and it was just what i needed after crying myself to sleep, thank for your art dodie
this song made me feel confused cuz like HOW IS SHE SO GOOD AT SINGING AND PLAYING THE UKE
Thanks feeling better
But what are the proper chords??? 😩
You should add this to your spotify
Dodies hair looks cute like this!
Oh wow. You're the only artist that's songs ever manage to bring me tears this is beautiful.
I failing everything I do, I’m losing my friends, my best friend abandoned me and kicked me out of her life when I needed her the most. I’m trying to keep myself up but I can’t, I’m seeing a therapist for months now, and I can’t get through this depression. I’m only 16, I’m supposed to decide of my future this weekend but I’m so lost, I feel so alone and I don’t know what to do. I’m constantly trying to cheer the others but nobody can see how much I’m in pain, not even my mom.
I just want to be normal, to be okay.
In France it’s late now I’m supposed to sleep cause I have school tomorrow but I’m just crying in bed, i can’t sleep, and sometime I have to get up to breath cause I’m sobbing
I thought I would listen to some music to calm down but now I feel even sadder
I know everyone has problem and I feel bad for complaining about mine but I’m so scared right now and this place is the only one I found to meet people like me....
I’m so sorry for wasting your time, good night and have a nice day...
i’m not sure if “people swimming in honey as your life falls apart” is meant to be interpreted as “wow everyone else has a gr8 life, life’s sweet for them” but i see it as a depersonalisation line? because that’s how it kinda feels (for me at least), as if everyone else is moving through thick honey and time’s all weird and different and hard to move through?? idk man it’s a really good song either way :)
This might be strange, but i really like it when you mess your hair and you keep on going with the messy hair. It feels relaxing? I dunno.
I love this song so much because it's so relatable for me my friends ask me if I'm okay I tell them I'm fine when I just feel so... just it's hard to explain but it's nice to know other people go through the same thing and I'm not alone.
Dodie,
I just wrote a very emotional comment on Golden Slumbers and I'm still not done with this. I've been watching your videos for a very long time. And every single thing you've uploaded gave me a sense of hope and had evoked so many emotions for me. Crying to this song at three in the morning is so much better than sleeping sometimes.
I've been rewatching the videos that has gotten me through all of my bad days and remembering that I've gotten through them all.
Thank you so much Dodie,
-Keilani
OH MAH LORD this sums up a lot of my days, like jeEz!
Curse you social anxiety, karma will come for you one day.
my comment is way more light-hearted than the truth tho..:/
Djeez, that song pulled at my heartstrings.. It made me crumble behind the keyboard. :')
Could I bother you by asking for a tutorial on how to play this beautiful song?
this is the song that truly got me connected with your music 💙
"it's like walking around, with a stone for a heart" ahhhh emotions
who else felt the emotion in this song and absolutely adore Dodie and this song ❤ this just captures my heart
Oh dodie i love you ,so much
Dodie: sometimes we have good days and sometimes we have bad days. This song is about the bad days
Me: seems like a very optimistic song.
Just to lift the mood a little :) love this song! I’ve been going through some songs of yours to add to my playlist of favorite songs! Good job 👏
dpdr led me here
I need it on Spotify pls 💙☁️
you look SO beautiful as usual omgg
She looks like the perfect uraraka
chords? thanks.

Have a nice ol restart button 0:07
3 years on and still I don't quite think I have ever related to a song more
love the bangs
This hits me hard
sounds like red-orange
yooo same pfp
Please revamp this if you ever were to revamp this I'd cry so many tears of joy I listen to this all the time ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
if this isn't on the new album/EP/project I'll literally die
I accidentally disliked this and I legitimately cried.
Yeah, I’m having one of _those_ days
Did you un-dislike
This lowkey sounds like a beautiful disney song 🌠
Anyone else feel like this is such an underrated song. I mean, it is such a beautiful song, but this is the only video with this song.
You’re therapeutic. Honestly.
what is that chord after the g?
Love you and you music
Soi de chile asique mi ingles esbasofia
i've had some issues this past months and this song just had me breaking down in tears :)
This is the nicest comment section I’ve ever seen
I'm down to clown
dangerous to listen to when youre coming out of the dark...
Honestly I listen to this nearly everyday... It makes me feel so good. It makes me feel so incredibly normal... People always trying to fix me, or cheer me up... when all I really need is someone to validate my feelings. This song makes me feel normal and heard. I cannot express to you how much it has done for me. Ever since it has come out! Thank you.
Why are those little finger guns at the end so me?
This hairstyle and makeup is still so perfect to me
Icecream and netflix when you're sad? nah fam i say graham crackers and dodie.
"people swimming in honey as your life falls apart"
I know this sounds super idiotic and unrealistic, but one of my biggest dreams/goals/wishes in life is to somehow someway i don't know, meet dodie somehow
Dodie is just one of the most amazing people i've ever seen/heard/obsessed over for a tiny bit
Same though. Haha
