Boys Don’t Cry

Sometimes I find myself in need of a good crying. Tears don’t come easy to me: I would build up tension for days, weeks, months, but miss a catalytic momentum of release. It then just weight there, like a cloud of gloom over my head.

But there is a way to hack into this attrition: music. A few notes from the right song and here I am, crying myself out of the fucking mess that makes up life, sometimes.

So over the time I made myself a playlist with songs that pull tears out of me and rince the sadness away. It never failed me so far, so I thought I’d share it.

If you’re a man, were taught not to cry and need to, here it is.

Note: I’ve found singing along does quicken the process.
