Foo Fighters – These Days Lyrics 12 years ago
This song is basically saying fuck optimism. Talk to me when you've been through what I've been through and felt what I've felt. Then I'll believe you when you say "it'll be alright"

In other words, don't just blindly say to someone that everything is going to be fine, because that just shows arrogance and it shows how naive you are. Life doesn't always work that way, sometimes it won't be alright, and sadly for some it will only be alright when their heart stops beating. That's when their pain will finally disappear.

So the next time you want to help someone or reassure them, don't blindly say it'll be alright, but actually consider their feelings and walk them through it, reassure them every step of the way. Show them that although you may or may not know what they are going through that you will be there for them.
