Five Songs To Listen To After You Graduate College

You move out, the bills come in. You realize you spent all your money on booze, Chipotle and that's about it... Now you're moving back home, unemployed, and feeling useless. Hope this helps...

1. "Future" by Paramore

With lyrics like, "Just think of the future, and think of your dreams, you'll get away from here, you'll get away eventually" you can't help but feel motivated that all your hard work for the past four years WILL pay off.

2. "It's Not Over" by Panama

A melancholy tune about changes in life and all the pessimism you feel. "You hope it would have been different, now you're thinking about a brand new start, you say there won’t be another chance, now you’re on your own, on the subway home."

3. "Kings and Queens" by Thirty Seconds to Mars

youtube.com

An empowering song about rising up, becoming powerful, and proving your worth. You know you can't help but blast, "WE WERE THE KINGS AND QUEENS OF PROMISE."

4. "Ease" by Troye Sivan

youtube.com

A song Sivan wrote about being homesick while on tour. He talks about the need for a familiar touch, dealing with loneliness, and how to feel better. He sweetly sings, "Take me back to the basics and the simple life, tell me all of the things that make you feel at ease."

5. "Holding On To You" by Twenty One Pilots

youtube.com

"And I'll be holding on to you," are the echoing words you hear throughout this song. A half pop/rock tune about life in general. The ups and downs of thinking too much; "The next moment, before you know it, time is slowing, and it's frozen still, and the window sill looks really nice, right? You think twice about your life, It probably happens at night, right?" YES. YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT.

I hope this helps you get through your post-grad blues
