I was told by my Primary Care Physician that I'd be lucky to make it to 21 due to my organ failure. 50/50 chance of making it. My 21st birthday is on July 19th. A little over a month away. This song is one of the blessings that helps me push through every day. God bless everybody watching this. I can and WILL survive, so will you. Much love. Edit: As of December 15, 2020 at 10:23 PM Pacific Time, I’m still kicking. 22 years old. Here’s to making it through 22 more. Edit: November 17, 2022 at 3:61 PM Pacific Time, Still fighting. I found out I have a 5 year old. Please, nobody give up. Think about the ones that love you. Edit: December 22, 2023 at 9:48 PM Pacific Time. Another year coming to an end. Cherish these final moments of 2023 with the ones that matter most to you, if this world knocks you down, persist and keep on getting back up. That's how winning is done! I plan to see 26. Much love from Seattle

One of my favorite things about this song is reading the comments. Every year you get new ones about how this song helped them get through a difficult time. My time right now isn't that difficult, but its still helping, because screw everything, I'm going to make it through this cold and these financial woes and I'm going to live to see the world become better. Not just for me, but for those who I care about too.

Agreed. I love music, but rarely is there a song I connect with as much as I connected with this one during the pandemic. I had developed a severe anxiety disorder and was going through a rough time waiting for the meds to finally start working, so I dug this song out and used it as a mantra. I was going to make it through that year if it killed me. I made it through and I'm in a much better place now. I still send this song to friends when they're going through something tough.

I’m so sorry. Honestly. I’m not here to give you the pep talk. This song got me through my youngest son being diagnosed with a debilitating psychiatric condition when he was 6. He’d close the year out in the Children’s Psych ward after attempting suicide…at 6…. Voices were telling him to do this. At the exact same time, my dad had a massive heart attack that would lead to his death. Our house was foreclosed upon. One of our cars stolen and in the final act of that year; I lost a job that I’d worked my entire life for…mostly because my boss was a poorly functioning alcoholic who was adept at passing the buck. I survived but it all really changed me. Maybe that’s the best we can ask for.

I had a 7-year battle with depression. It was at its absolute worst in January 2013 and I have such a strong memory of sitting on the floor of my half-decorated bedroom, watching the sunset while listening to this song - trying to remind myself that the world is so beautiful, and so much more than a dark endless void - and trying to tell myself to keep going. If I could just make it through 2013, I could get through another year, and another and so on. In 2016 after some extensive therapy, I started very slowly getting better. I’ve considered myself ‘better’ now for four and a half years… but every January I still come back to this song, just as a humbling reminder that I’m one of the lucky ones who made it through.

I know, from your words, you understand what I'm saying. I will not pretend to give you vapid, nor sage advice. I will merely say these words ... you are not alone; you have *never* been alone; there are more of us than you can possibly imagine; it is hard being a human. Even the most vacuous among us know that life isn't easy. So... what to do about it? How to keep going? I don't know. But I will say this ... John Darnielle knows what it is all about. His song knows what it is all about. His words are simple, yet inspirational - in a comforting and non-preaching way. I've received inspiration from his lyrics. Perhaps you will as well.

@@whychoooseausername4763 I’m not actually Jewish either, but Christian, however for both the Passover has a deep meaning of hope. For Jews it’s a prayer that one day God (or fortune) will restore a people to their homeland via the Messiah. For Christians it’s a prayer for Christ’s (the Messiah’s) return and the recreation of Heaven and earth. Either way it’s a prayer of praise and hope; hope because we want God’s promise to come quickly, Praise because we know that it is inevitable because God has prophesied it through the prophets. In a similar way, the MC of the song knows that change will come eventually. he will be able to get out of his house, all he needs to do make it through this year.

@Trevor Walker I think it does get better actually. I mean a good example is the people you meet along the way. Everyone around me during my younger years was kind of a terrible person. I can feel that changing. More importantly you start to understand yourself. With that knowledge, you get to decide how people should treat you, and you realize that you're in control of it all.

I broke free on a Saturday morning I put the pedal to the floor Headed north on Mills Avenue And listened to the engine roar My broken house behind me And good things ahead A girl named Cathy Wants a little of my time Six cilinders underneath the hood Crashing and kicking Aha! Listen to the engine wine I am going to make it through this year If it kills me I am going to make it though this year If it kills me I played video games in a drunken haze I was seventeen years yound Hurt my knuckles punching the machines The taste of scotch rich on my tongue And then Cathy showed up And we hung out Trading swigs from a bottle All bitter and clean Locking eyes Holding hands Twin high maintenance machines I am going to make it through this year If it kills me I am going to make it though this year If it kills me I drove home in the California dusk I could feel the alcohol inside of me hum Pictured the look on my stepfather's face Ready for the bad things to come I downshifted As I pulled into the driveway The motor screaming out Stuck in second gear The scene ends badly As you might imagine In a cavalcade of anger and fear There will be feasting and dancing In Jerusalem next year I am going to make it through this year If it kills me I am going to make it though this year If it kills me

I just looked this up to share with a friend who had a medical nightmare of a year in 2023, as this was my go-to for the year I spent on interferon for hepatitis C, fighting Cigna to not get medication coverage dropped partway through the 48 week course of pills and self-injections. I had to work full time on ladders and scaffolding while feeling sick, weak, and dizzy because we tie health insurance to employment in this corrupt-ass country. I made it, though, Hep C free and healthy coming on 17 years.

Every year I listen to this song at midnight on my birthday when I turn a year older. This is the third year in a row. I saw my old comment and it made me reflect a lot on how much can happen in a year. I started weightlifting, joined choir, did a semester of theatre, made a lit of new friends, joined school at bowl, I'm now in band, I know more about music and health and...life, in general I mean. Holy fuck I'm eighteen. I have to register for the draft now. I have goals and aspirations and even though some days I feel like shit I know that I can do great things that don't amount to me feeling like shit, at least for a little while. Hello nineteen year old future me. I hope this comment finds you in good health. I hope you even more motivated and driven and smarter than I am now. Please, if anything happens remember your music, remember your weightlifting. Remember to try. If you're any and allof these things a year from now you have appeased your past self. Don't focus and get caught up in petty shit. Don't smoke, don't drink, don't fuck, and don't do drugs unless you know that they're a good idea to do(they almost never are). Make good choices. Be a way better person than you are now. Be that warm firm handshake kinda person. Be the person that I want to be a year from now. And when we get there come down to the comment section and tell me about it.

Young me had a lot of angst with how I’d turn out and if I’d be successful. I was so concerned with pleasing other people at that point in my life while also being pretty depressed and anxious about the future. I’m happy to tell my past self that I’m doing fine. I finally came out of the closet, I’m making it on my own and supporting myself, and I’m giving myself the support I need to live a happy and full life. I hope future me can continue this path, trying to be a kind and authentic person. Maintaining and growing good relationships in my life. I hope future me can say that their life is full, or at least as full as I can manage.

Remember to own yourself and your flaws and your past - you've made it this far and your history is a valid and important part of who you are. Also, good job on choosing what matters to you and aiming for it. Even if you miss, choosing a point on the horizon and saying "that's where I'm going" is brave because it requires hope.
