โ pov : youโre the protagonist of a coming of age filmย โ plots .
the suburbs โ arcade fire ;
weโre both about to leave our hometown and part ways but before that , letโs look back and reminisce on everything we went through here ( and maybe create some new memories ) . sometimes , i canโt believe weโre moving past this feeling .
weโre best friends , and even though iโve had feelings for you for a while iโm too scared to confess because a ) i donโt want to mess up our friendship and b ) youโre dating someone else โฆ who isnโt exactly great , according to me , your parents , and everyone ever . sometimes i think you might feel the same way i do , though ; iโm trying to understand these days .
why do you feel so down โ declan mckenna ;
we were best friends as kids but as we grew up , we ended up being different people and drifted apart . a couple years later we have a chance meeting ( high school reunion , old friend group meetup , etc ) and i want to reconnect . i know iโm not a very good friend , but i miss you .
anna sun โ walk the moon ;
after moving out and becoming independent , we end up as roommates in a rundown apartment building . like , really โ this house is falling apart . even though we didnโt know each other before , we quickly become attached at the hip and i know i wouldnโt trade this for any luxury apartment .
trouble โ cage the elephant
after living a mostly troubled life up until this point , we cross paths somehow . iโm distant and unsure of this whole thing , but youโre like the sun and you donโt let that stop you . weโre two very different people , but we end up growing so close that you can have my heart any place , any time .
the adults are talking โ the strokes
weโre the youngest children of two wealthy families who tend to have plenty of parties and other events . we never seem to fit in with them โ youโre picture perfect , yet still heavily criticized by your family , while i stopped caring long ago about what mine says . dinner party after dinner party we end up bonding ; i assure you that you donโt have to try so hard to please them , and then you did something wrong and you said it was great .
