#MellowMusic Hits: Difficult by Gracie Abrams

Gracie Abrams' song 'Difficult' is like a raw emotional diary.

It's that feeling when life's a jumble, and words fail. Gracie lays it all bare, and it's beautifully relatable. 'Difficult' starts with Gracie talking about her "double vision," seeing someone as they aren't. Ever felt that? We've all been there. It's when we're so fed up that we just want to escape.

She's also scared of moving out, and maybe you are too. Leaving home can be both exciting and frightening. It's a part of growing up, but it's hard. Gracie captures this emotion perfectly.

Gracie's honesty is striking. She speaks about her "terrible condition," the struggles we all face but might not admit. It's like those nights when you can't stop thinking and wish for a break from your own mind.

"Difficult" is a song you can talk to, just like you would to a therapist. It's that midnight chat with your own thoughts. Gracie sings about feeling lost, like there's something missing. Who hasn't felt that at some point?

This song is a comforting reminder that it's okay not to have all the answers. Gracie's candid lyrics tell us that it's fine to be "difficult," complex, and confused. We're all trying to figure things out. It's a song that says, "You're not alone."

Gracie Abrams' 'Difficult' is a musical embrace for when life feels messy and confusing. It tells us that sometimes, being 'difficult' is just being human.

Lyrics:

My double vision
Is only amplifying everything he isn't
'Til I feel less attached and bored to death, but listen
It's no one's fault, it's just my terrible condition

And I've been thinkin' if I move out this year
I'll feel my parents slipping
Away and also I'm just scared of that commitment
I really think sometimes there's something that I'm missingOh, I know spiraling is miserable

I should probably go back home
Why does that feel difficult, difficult?
Oh, I hope I wake up invisible
I'd be someone no one knows
I guess I'm just difficult

To name this feeling
Would take a hundred thousand years, some kind of grieving
But over what I never had, so I've been speaking
To my therapist, I call her every weekendI meant to tell you
How I've hated how we left things when it fell through
'Cause you were everything to me, where did you run to?
Was it something that I said that colored you blue?Oh, I know spiraling is miserable

I should probably go back home
Why does that feel difficult, difficult?
Oh, I hope I wake up invisible
I'd be someone no one knows
I guess I'm just difficult, difficult

Difficult (I)
Difficult

I've been drinking
And staying up too late reliving bad decisions
I thought eventually my ranting here would fix it
I really think sometimes there's something that I'm missingOh, I know spiraling is miserable

I should probably go back home
Why does that feel difficult, difficult?
Oh, I hope I wake up invisible
I'd be someone no one knows
I guess I'm just difficult, difficult

Oh, I know spiraling is miserable
I should probably go back home
Why does that feel difficult, difficult?
Oh, I hope I wake up invisible
I'd be someone no one knows
I guess I'm just difficult, difficult
