Sometimes you wake up and troubles within your life seem to weigh more than usual. Occasionally our emotions overtake us and we have days where we don’t want to leave our bed let alone our room. Personally, music always helps me through bad days because I find it therapeutic; one song could alter your mood while reminding you that there are better days ahead and that this feeling isn't permanent. Here are a few of my go-to songs from punk/alternative bands that help me conquer bad days!
1. Gold Steps by Neck Deep.
While listening, you'll feel inspired to conquer your day; you can handle anything that's thrown at you.
2. World Away by Tonight Alive.
This one will remind you that whatever pain you feel, it's going to help you grow into the person you're meant to be; you'll always come out of your dark days.
3. Never Lose Your Flames by Issues
Listening to Issues' music may take a particular taste but nonetheless this song's message is beautiful: through pain and struggles, don't loses the spark that keeps you going, you're worth it.
4. My House by PVRIS
If you need to be reminded that you're the one in control of your life (that other people and mental illnesses do not own you) then this is the one for you!
5. Missing You by All Time Low
This one might make you cry, fair warning. The lyrics are a comforting hug because they empathize while relating to you; overall it encourages you to rise about the pain and struggles because there are so many people in this world that love you.
