Loss and grief are universal experiences, yet their true depth can only be understood firsthand. This emotional ballad explores the gap between sympathy and genuine understanding when it comes to personal tragedy. The songwriter acknowledges that while friends can offer support and comfort during difficult times, they cannot fully comprehend the devastating impact of losing someone close until they experience it themselves. The recurring theme emphasizes how no amount of empathy or well-intentioned support can truly replicate the raw feelings of personal loss. The message serves as a gentle reminder that while we can be there for others in their darkest moments, some emotional experiences can only be truly understood through direct experience. #Grief #Empathy #PersonalLoss
Until It Happens To You
Lyrics
You can have a friend get their heart broke
And you can be there when they need it most, but
You won't be the one falling off the deep end
You can have a friend lose somebody close
And you can be there when they need it most, but
You won't be the one having trouble sleeping
Somebody loses their somebody every day
But you'll never really know what it's like
'Til you wake up to some real bad news
You'll never really know how it feels
'Til it happens to you
No, you'll never really know what it's like
Even if you think you do
You'll never really know how it feels
'Til it happens to you
You can say sorry a million times
But even if you try, try to sympathize
You won't be the one picking up the pieces
You can do your best, call 'em every night
Listen to 'em say, say they're alright
But you know there's a chance they don't really mean it
Somebody loses their somebody every day
But you'll never really know what it's like
'Til you wake up to some real bad news
You'll never really know how it feels
'Til it happens to you
No, you'll never really know what it's like
Even if you think you do
You'll never really know how it feels
'Til it happens to you
You
'Til it happens to you
You'll never really know what it's like
'Til you wake up to some real bad news
You'll never really know how it feels
'Til it happens to you
No, you'll never really know what it's like
Even if you think you do
You'll never really know how it feels
'Til it happens to you
'Til it happens to you
(Somebody loses their somebody)
('Til it happens to you)
(Somebody loses their somebody every day)
You
Somebody loses their somebody
