Mitski - Class Of 2013 Lyrics

im going to be graduating high school in a year and a half (class of 2021) and this is what i'm terrified of feeling. i'm so scared of the future and moving out and leaving my mom and family and really everything i've ever known, and this song puts that into words

Am I crying at 2:33 am 6 years after this song was released? Yes and what about it?

I lost my mom suddenly not even a month after I turned 10 years old, so this whole song hits hard but the "and I'll leave what I'm chasing for the other girls to pursue" line hits the most. I'd give anything to have her back. 💜💚

leaving home for school soon and this is hitting different

Even though I am graduating this year my mother's an immigrant and I'm pretty sure most immigrant children know what I mean; I don't have to leave the house if I don't want to until I get married... well more like I'm not allowed to leave the house until I get married but I'm fine with that I don't want to leave anyway I love my mom. Plus the real world is tough. I know this since I have to pay all the bills because my mother isn't really tech savvy

No other song but this can give me goosebumps this fast

This is incredible

I just moved away from my parents and listening to this song made me cry like a little child again

I know exactly how you feel, I've had to move out of home for uni. I hate missing my family so much

This makes me feel all my feelings at once. Ahhhhh.

just absolutely lost it and sobbed in my car at 3 am over this. my mom kicked me out at 16 and we still dont talk three years later. this song encompasses the pure desperation i still feel today to have my mom be better. i almost texted this to her but didn’t out of fear of getting my heart ripped out of my chest again. if you have a mom that loves you unconditionally, hug her so tight

I’m so sorry

crying at this song cuz i don't have a mom :(

(where my momless bitches at?!)

felt that

can mitski be my mom

2019 and I'm still crying

Choss Peñafiel big mood

ow
Ow ow ow owwwww.....
I always imagine like... some mother comforting her dying child when I listen to this song and it makes me saddd ::7

i'm high and crying

felt like a failure this semester.

this song always makes me feel like a burden.. i love my mom

The 8 people who disliked this should be arrested cause that’s a federal crime

i can't believe this song is real, it's beyond incredible

whoa why am i crying all of a sudden

Electric guitar would've made it raw and pure.

Mom, I'm tired
Can I sleep in your house tonight?
Mom, is it alright
If I stay for a year or two?
Mom, I’ll be quiet
It would be just to sleep at night
And I’ll leave once I figure out
How to pay for my own life too

Mom, would you wash my back?
This once, and then we can forget
And I’ll leave what I’m chasing
For the other girls to pursue

Mom, am I still young?
Can I dream for a few months more?

deathofaclown i can sing this in a shower now

I love this song and Mitski, but I think I prefer the raw version where she's screaming into her guitar pickups. I think it gets the emotion across better.

Where can i find that version?

@Selena Lamothe NPR music tiny desk session

The Bell Jar

Made me laugh and cry at the same time. Wish you all the best Mitski.

This song is so beautiful, I still listen to it now, and it makes me cry every time

I love mitski. and I miss her long black hair

such a beautiful damn song

I love the raw noisy live versions and all, but the studio version is still the definitive one for me, incredibly touching.

Yepppp...nice recounting of memories ~~

relatable as fuck

this fits my life rn. im lost. and my mom's the one who always guide. who always understand.

+toni toni I hope you find where you're going

@Tyler Lavoie thank you. Wherever that may be, I that all those waiting, detours, stopovers, would all be worth it. I hope you get what your heart hopes :)
