9 Popular Songs With Disturbing Implications You Never Noticed
7. The Community Theme Song Is About Suicide
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEGbjR1Y9QoMost famous for its use as theme song for the beloved Community, "At Least It Was Here" works as a cheery, catchy intro to a wacky show about a study group at a Community college. And because it sounds so upbeat, it's possible to watch all six seasons of the show without ever actually processing the lyrics.

I cant count the reasons I should stay One by one they all just fade awayEventually the person decides that their love for someone else is so intense and tearing them apart so much that they've got to end it all:
Give me some rope Tie me to dream Give me the hope to run out of steam Somebody said it could be here We could be roped up, tied up, dead in a year
