Bones in the Ocean 

Survivors guilt is real for a lot of people. You reading this, you matter. Keep sailling on til the dawn

It’s been three years since you lost your battle with depression, Sean. The college park goon squad isn’t quite same without you. Me and Darren could be doing worse, but we aren’t doing great. Darren got arrested for assault and I’m battling with substance abuse. I don’t know how or why our crew fell apart, but i do know that we aren’t doing our best. Last time we visited your grave we dropped off your three favorite things: a Wendy’s spicy chicken, a pint of Guinness, and a hybrid joint. I promise to work harder at my addiction. And I promise to check in with Darren more often. I pray you’re in a better place, my brother.

I love you dad.

A Wojak brought me here.

This song makes me miss people I don't know :(

I shed a tear for my friend Keith every time I hear this masterpiece. I raise a glass to him, and one to you gents as well. Though the sea separates us, I hope you can hear me singing along with you in the states.

Who is here because they saw memes about the submarine that imploded near the titanic wreckage and started thinking of this song? No, only me? Yeah, that tracks

You don't even have to witness or experience the actual death of a friend to feel a connection te the melancholy of this song.

Grandpa passed, he was a warrior in his youth and a stubborn bastard to the end, drove his car till 98 and had stories to tell that belong in Hollywood miss you Grandpa

"Though their eyes speak of depths filled with struggle and strife

This song brought a tear to my eyes.

Oh, I bid farewell to the port and the land

"Their smiles below say I don't owe them my life "

I've been a funeral director for 5 years. And I was a deputy coroner for 2 of that. This song hits me every time. I see the faces of the people I picked up every day .

I am not over exaggerating in saying that this song has played a huge role in pulling me out of a very dark place.

"Now that I'm staring down at the darkest abyss

I don’t cry when listening to songs, at least that’s what i thought, until I heard this song, it’s lyrics are just so powerful.

The longest Johns inspired me to start singing shanties myself, and this was the song that started my love affair with them. A beautiful and heartfelt song it is; I remember how nervous and scared I was after commenting that I was good at singing at a social event. I was asked to sing.

I lost my mom in december, (and then 4 days later my dog) and in january i began to have suicidal thoughts daily (i never will but the thoughts were very intrusive). Ive been listening to this song every work day since then, looping it to get through days.
