Some songs evoke those feelings that you never wanted to end; here are a few favorites that will remind you of the good and the bad, the highs and the lows.
400 Lux by Lorde
"I love these roads where the houses don't change..."
Lorde coos over calming beats as she sings about killing time with someone, be it a friend or a lover. She tells the story of being picked up and taken home again as if it were an interminable cycle.. that she was in love with. It will bring back careless summer nights of driving down those all too familiar roads.
Forrest Gump by Frank Ocean
"If this is love, I know it's true.. I won't forget you"
Frank Ocean drew inspiration from the iconic film, not only in the title, but in the details woven into the lyrics. You hear the witty reference of "run 44", but the hidden meaning is laced with nostalgia and the sinking feeling of desperately missing someone and the memories attached to them.
Video Games by Lana Del Rey
"It's better than I ever even knew, they say that the world was built for two..."
An ode to a past lover, Lana recounts the wild summers shared with the one she loved the most.
December by Neck Deep
"I miss your face, you're in my head, there's so many things that I should've said"
An angry letter to a past flame, December recounts lessons learned along with the yearning for old times back.
Anna Sun by Walk The Moon
"Fumbling around the back, not one seatbelt on... wait for summertime"
Anna Sun is upbeat and idyllic, but it evokes so many memories of night after night flying by with not a care in the world.
Ribs by Lorde
"I want 'em back (the minds we had)"
Ribs recounts the chilling reality of growing old. The painfully nostalgic lyrics tell the story of best friends, and how your world changes as each birthday passes.
Sex by The 1975
"And this it how it starts..."
This song speaks of happiness, then pain, then loneliness; emotions that many relate to all too well. The crashing lyrics will creep into your mind and soul.
