All of his songs in the “Your City Gave Me Asthma” album have such raw, melancholy sadness, the kind that twists your stomach and closes up your throat. It’s truly such an underrated album.

I feel this,, but if it can make you feel better, he already said many times these past weeks that he didn’t really like this album anymore because he didn’t “resonate” with it too much now, So that could mean that his mental health is way better now :] (although he already spoke about it on other peoples stream but yeah/)
@@cinaedl yeah, that’s great that his mental health is better now But I know from experience that mental health can change really quickly. I just want the best for Wilbur, I think most of his fans do.
i was crying to this song last night but then the wanker bit came on and it made me laugh becuz im not british so that’s such a weird word for me idk it made me smile through the tears lmao
Speaking from personal experience (hotheaded, immensely self-critical at times), there’s a whole myriad of ridiculous descriptions that you can 100% earnestly attribute yourself with to degrade yourself The ‘wanker’ line hits hard for me because of that
Unlike most similar "meme songs," this is unironically really good and interesting music. It's not just ukulele chords with lyrics that reference memes.
@@euancraig2322 Yeah I realized later that this might not be the right song, this has some serious Crywank vibes. I guess I meant more for stuff like "I'm in love with an E-girl" and such songs.
The way I got into Wilbur soot was that I was at a sleepover and my bff says “hey I have a song that reminds me of your trauma” so I just quietly added it to my breakdown playlist...-_-
The fact this song is about him. It was under our noses since the beginning. He had been telling everyone how he was not a good person. And i just thought it was him telling everyone how nobody's perfect. Not him admitting the fact he's actually horrible.
I thought so too, couldn’t believe someone who once brought us comfort could done such horrible things. Seems like things are not always what it seemed like
People who write things like songs or response to other people about their problems. They write them knowing they relate and feel hypocritical about it. I know this because I do it as well.
i knew he was singing about something that has to with him based on the amount of emotion. i just thought he changed- HAH NOPE- but this is still my mental break down song.
"I don't deserve you, you deserve the world" Had no idea he was an actual RU-vidr, this song made me find his other channels and I love them. Thanks Wilbur ♥️
1:04 I’m definitely thinking too much into it, but if you consider a few Greek myths this really hits different... First is that all humans were made from clay, hence the dirt. The second is that humans were originally made as two people fused together with four arms, four legs, two hearts, etc, but when they got too ambitious and powerful Zeus separated them into two- one of the first the soulmates legends, and the ideal of finding your other half, either platonic or romantic.
Christianity also follows the idea that man was a chunk of clay molded in God's image, then (if I remember correctly) when man got lonely, god used his ribs to construct a counterpart for him
[Verse 1] I thought I couldn't love anymore Turns out I can't Not for the same reasons as before I use everyone I ever meet I can't find the perfect match Abuse those I love While I ostracise the ones who love me back [Verse 2] On the path of least resistance I find myself salting the earth Every time that I miss you I feel the way you hurt And I don't deserve you You deserve the world Though it feels like we were built from the same Dirt [Chorus] Ah-ah-ah Oh, I hate to say it but your sister was right Don't trust English boys with far too much free time I hate to say it but your sister was right I'm nothing but a problem, leave you crying overnight And I hate to say it but your sister was right I can't focus on the future, only my short sight I hate to say it but your sister was right I'm a wanker, complete wanker A fucking waste of time
This really hurts to listen to. I can relate to it so much and it hurts. When I grew up, I was emotionally abused by my dad when I was still around the “ ignorance is bliss “ age. I left his household 4 almost 5 months ago but I still miss my little sister. Every day I wake up I feel like I did her wrong and I left her with a monster and I’m a horrible brother / sister.
hey i was in a similar situation, i know what it's like :/ but nothing was your fault, you needed to get out of a terrible situation, and you were still a victim. i hope your sister is alright, who knows, maybe when you're older you can figure out a way to help her be in a safer situation too. but don't feel guilty for getting yourself out- the whole thing is unfair but you did the best you could.
I was in a similar situation.. But he would also hit me and my sister.. I went trough it for 8 years , then my mother finally left him and it's been more then a year now since I last saw him I'm honestly happy I haven't seen him since then... I'm still left with lots of trauma , and evrytime somebody raises their hand I just expect them to hit me.... I hope your doing okay tho! And maby u can find a way to help your sister! , I surely hope you do
Su1c1d3 rates going up, when the Guitar gets louder it covers up the screams of those ending it by jumping on the rails, and he also went through a break up which inspired some of these songs, sadly. :(
(tw cutting and thought of suicide) So about a 2 months ago I started planning my suicide . But when it came time for the day my parents made me go to town , and for once I actually had fun . When I got home it was late so I decided to go swing before I 🛀☎️ (toster bath):and I had fun so I lost track of time and the last thing I remember from that night was me listening to this and thinking of everything Wilbur has gone through and thinking of all my cuts and scars and the failed attempts and I just remember for the first time in 10 years , actually wanting to be alive for a bit longer .
I am so incredibly proud of you. I am so happy that you have found enough happiness to keep going. Genuinely, I don't even know you but you have so much to live for. I love you, stranger.
Yesterday I cycled down a lonely road in the middle of nowhere in the rain, listening to this, and I stopped by a bench. I have no direction in life. I'm 15 and am nothing but a sore loser. Recently I've realised just how lonely I am, I'm fucking tired of my awkwardness and all the times Ive asked girls out they reject me, and my friends make fun of me. I know I really have nothing at all to be crying about, but I broke down in the middle of the rain, while this song played. It's like that feeling deep in your throat that tells you that you need to let it all out nobody's going to notice this but i just needed to vent that's all, i'll fuck off now...
your feelings are valid. it sounds like your life is hard, and you have a valid reason to cry about it. things get better, okay? i promise they do. the year i was 14 was the worst year of my life and i' 21 now. it gets better. hang in there. its okay to listen to music and cry to cope. im rooting for you, and thinking of you, wherever you are.
Dude I'm going through the exact same thing right now, I'm really glad I'm not the only one. You described exactly how I feel. I hope you know Ily and your not alone
Being lonely does things to you... i was lonely my whole high school and first uni and ive felt your pain for six years... I hope you will be able to find someone to keep you company. They come, sooner or later. Its okay to focus on yourself now. You are still finding yourself, i am very different from who i was when i was 15 nine years ago. I wish i could offer you more comfort. All the best.
I once saw something that said something along the lines of how no one realizes how much being lonely or not having any relationships in your teenage years takes a huge tole on us. As a teen myself I think this maybe one of the realest things ive ever heard
Yeahhh.. It sucks seeing all the comments from people who actually liked him before he became a monster of some kind. Wish he was a better person. Wish he could own up to it
@@sponkykinghis apology seemed self-absorbed. I mean.. until he really wants to reflect and admit sorry to sympathize with his victims, it will either be a long journey or a never-ending cycle while we slowly forgets it
@@sponkykingI think what Wilbur was trying to say through his songs his apology all along. He knows he was a bad person and I think through looking at his songs we can see that he has tried to change but never can.
Yeah I have high suspicions this is why he actually hates this album, it revealed more about him than he’d like to admit. Fuck, I don’t even wanna say I relate to this album anymore knowing the way he treats people he is close to.
Don't get any tears on the assignment, teachers are gonna get mad for a ruined paper , they won't ask an explanation.. - advice from a person who cried on assignments trying to get away from trauma -
I don’t know if anyone sees it as this but, to me, this song sounds like a suicide note from someone who is angry at the world but blames themselves for all their problems when it really isn’t. And it hurts how much I relate to this.
considering i’ve heavily related to this song for years i now want to genuinely work on myself as to not become a shitty person like him,,man i mean this song has been playing in my head all day and the lyrics have been making me queasy
I understand and heavily related to this song for a long time more than I’d like to admit. But wanting to genuinely get better and know and working on your faults is already a step ahead. Hope and Healing is Possible 🫶🏼
That’s a lot better, you are the sole prove that anyone can be in his position and could have done so much differently than to repeat the ab*sice cycle. You proved that hurt people doesn’t necessarily become the bad guy, that it’s not an excuse to be horrible to your love ones.
For the people in the comments concerned for Wilbur, this album was made a while ago, (I think almost three years now,) and Wilbur has stated that he's better now. :)
a confession to what? him abusing his ex? pretty sure he didnt meet shubble when he wrote this song, they met wayyy later on in his life, id say its more of a confession to his toxic traits and stuff he hates about himself
@@moochietfMental illness treatment is heavily biased towards women. Multiple health organisations admit this, and 70% of psychiatrists are women. There is very little research into mental health for men.
Knowing what he did bro this song hits differently. Dude I was only ever into his music not into him as a person, but knowing he’s a lady abuser makes this song more disturbing than comforting. God damn dude.
I come back to this song every time I'm sad, or my parents are yelling, or I'm having a panick attack. This song got me through so much. I hope one cay I can thank Wilbur in person :)
"And I don't deserve you You deserve the world" Will has been bad to his girlfriends, knows it, feels horrible about it, and keeps doing it He's a terrible human being, a broken human being, a violent human being, but still a human being, I just know part of him is good, he needs to focus on that
I really relate to this. Alot of people write songs about being heartbroken, not about being the heartbraker who hates to break peoples hearts... Let me just say "im nothing but a problem, leave you crying over night" hit the hardest.
Idc if you came here from tiktok rather I'm glad that you discovered it BUT PLS WE WOULD LOVE IT IF YOU ARE ABLE TO APPRECIATE THE WHOLE SONG AND NOT JUST THAT ONE LINE😭
To anyone who’s here from tiktok, This song is not a love song in any shape or form. It’s practically the opposite so stop writing the fucking lyrics on your shoes. This is not a song you should be walking around with on your shoes. This song is basically about Wilbur treating an ex girlfriend let’s just say in a form not the way he should’ve. His gfs sister would always tell him they were gonna get hurt, it wouldn’t work etc. And she was right, hence the name of the song. He was obviously hurt after and wasn’t in a very good place. So stop being disrespectful having this song on your fucking shoes and just enjoy it. Also it’s not a “tiktok song” and never will be. Edit : Wilbur has come out with a Reddit post saying he doesn’t care! And that he doesn’t care if the music is interpreted wrong. But not to use it to push facist shit and opinions. But people should still know it’s not a love song
I feel the biggest emptiness in the world in my chest, I feel used. I gave him everything of myself, I even agreed to do things that I don't like, just for him. The worst of all is that I am aware of all the bad things he did to me... But the only thing I want is to go back.. I wanna cry
this song broke me, it sounds so similar to someone i used to have. he was basically my brother and so much more and he left because he kept hurting me and my sister. he was our brother and now he’s gone, bruh i’m crying. it feels like this is a message from him tbh since it’s so accurate
I noticed when Wilbur sang this song in one of his streams that instead of the lyric "a fucking waste of time" he said "a fucking waste of *your* time" That hit me like a rock.
Knowing that Wilbur listened to Crywank for years, the inspiration from their songs is clear in this album. The songs make me feel nostalgic in spite of them being recently written. He really did capture the similar raw emotion and always present rough guitar but in his own style
Such a calm yet violent song. I can respect his music. I shall listen to his music religiously due to the fact this music can fall under alternative rock
He did it to niki too. She just didn't stand up for herself like Shelby did. Shelby is so strong and I don't blame niki at all for staying quiet. It's hard talking about stuff.
Don't listen to her, she never lived in the time where songs had a very deep message. Most arents can't understand so don't listen to the bullshit they say
Oh my fucking god how did we not realize he was a shitty person it was literally in plain sight too. "Abuse those I love while I ostracise the ones who love me back" HE FLAT OUT SAID IT FOR FUCKS SAKE. Her sister was fucking right, and we owe Jared an apology that isn't self absorbed.
Its a song, everyone thought it was a persona, like with nice guy, people cancelled it because of something racist he said but people also defended him because it was a "persona"
a confession to what? him abusing his ex? pretty sure he didnt meet shubble when he wrote this song, they met wayyy later on in his life, id say its more of a confession to his toxic traits and stuff he hates about himself
@@bingus5 he had gfs before this? Did he though? Honestly Wilbur was very private about his real life relationships so it’s hard to say, can you even give me instances of Wilbur having more than 3 girlfriends?? I know he had a girlfriend that he travelled the world with but that about it honestly
I thought so too, couldn’t believe someone who once brought us comfort could done such horrible things. In the end.. things are not always what it seemed like
Why are the most talented people always the worst? He had talent and threw it all away. Ive cried to this song so many times and js the album in general, I'm disappointed honestly.
you keep asking and asking this but if you got a real answer, will you still think you even wanted to know why? Anyways if you seriously do then this is something I watched on it IHXNwMrZmA4&t=269 (Change the "&" to a "?" if you're typing out the short version)
the meaning of the song- *feeling dejected and insecure because of being a bad lover. He treated the girl he loved very poorly. Despite how How he feels for her, and feels Guilty because she ignored the signs from her sister that he was going to hurt her.*
I love all of the songs from the "Your City Gave Me Asthma" album, you can just feel the sadness and despair, from voice cracks to lyrics, this album conveys sadness in a truly underrated way.
@@matt-k6ndon’t be, just like all victims of ab*sed, you didn’t know and it was never your fault that he done all of those horrible things. Don’t mend yourself with him, there are many other talented artists out there to support as well.
