Come laugh away who you are and get down Who you are, who we are now you're foun

Artist- Lykke Li
Song of the day- Youth Knows no pain

So I'm not quite sure what artist I've played on my blog the most but I would make an educated guess as it being Lykke Li. But it must be today's song choice as I celebrate school ending by the only way i Know how: a Lykke Li concert. And well, as I finished my internship hours as a pediatric nurse and seen a lot of youth in pain, witnessed most of my classmates in pain trying to finish the program, and experienced general pains trying to become and adult with a job and a home...I realized youth is painful. But perhaps the best quality and for sure the reason why I love working with kids is how they manage to hold on to the innocence and playfulness of themselves in the face of adversity. Crying fits one minute, lego fights and dance marathons the next. Really it's the best coping mechanism I've seen. And maybe it's not that youth knows no pain, they are just better at dealing with it. So I'd like to take a note from my patients and get down at a concert in celebration of finishing one of the hardest times of my life and seeing / experiencing some tough stuff and some amazing people. Come on get down.



Come laugh away who you are and get down
Who you are, who we are now you're found
To the sun or the bears or the guns
We taking all our vows with your frown

Come on get down
Come on get down
Make a mess, make a bow
Come on get down
Come get down
Mighty youth, here and now
So come on honey cut yourself to pieces
Come on honey give yourself completely
And do it all though you can't believe it
Youth knows no pain
Youth knows no pain

Come together and join the parade
And get back walk on lost in the trade
With the plants and the shimmering beats
With the wind in my hair, you're free

Come on get down
Come get down
Make a mess, make a bow
Come on get down
Come get down

Mighty youth, here and now
So come on honey cut yourself to pieces
Come on honey give yourself completely
And do it all though you can't believe it
Youth knows no pain
Youth knows no pain

I said youth don't know
Youth knows no pain
I said youth don't know
Youth knows no pain

Mighty youth, here and now
So come on honey cut yourself to pieces
Come on honey give yourself completely
Come on honey cut yourself to pieces
Come on honey give yourself completely
And do it all though you can't believe it
Youth knows no pain
Youth knows no pain
