Andy Grammer- Wish You Pain

"I hope your doubts come like monsters

And terrorize your dreams

I hope you feel the lonely hopelessness

'Cause no one else believes

I hope you question whether you

Ever really had a chance at all."

Besides the rhyme and meter, the concept of wishing someone pain because it's the only way to learn and grow is a poetic, philosophical message. I think the heart of poetry is messages like that embedded in deliberately structured language.

I also just really love this song.
