The Reasons Why

" and a jaunty shimmer of a song with lyrics taken from a real-life suicide note that Smith was sent in 1987 ('The Reasons Why' - "I knew the person who sent me the letter. It was a genuine suicide. They would be my age"). "

For some reason, after reading that in the NME interview, whenever I listen to The Reasons Why now, I get this strange feeling of unease.
Even with that said, I still love the song (It was one of the songs that stood out to me upon first listening to 4.13) but I still get that feeling creeping up.

I think it could be reminding me of something else.

Anyway, I don't suppose that happened to anyone else, did it?

I didn't think it'd affect other people

Well... SOME people obviously.

I don't know, the quote: "I knew the person who sent me the letter. It was a genuine suicide. They would be my age" reminds me of some things that happened to me (though not the exact same circumstances) about a year or so ago.

It wasn't exactly a pleasant time, and I suppose it triggered something in my brain which, in remembering that stuff, forces me to feel things that I felt back then.

Deep, huh?
