What's the radio's favourite song?

i can never attach myself to a favourite song of all time, one song to encapsulate these sixteen years of my life, i find it incredibly hard. so i picked one from my favourite memory, a bittersweet memory, the memory i always look back to when regret seeps from the present. that whatever happens now and after, i will never change this single moment of my life that yes, i may not be successful in the future, that yes, i may be living off food coupons for the rest of my life, that perhaps maybe if i'm lucky i will pay it all through a shitty nine to five job just to make ends meet but never would i regret those amazing two years, i would do it all over again in a heartbeat. that i know when i'm thirty and dying i will never long for lost youth or missed chances. that i won't watch silly films about teenagers and envy their reckless youthful decadence. that i won't pass strangers and wished that it was me instead. that those times everyone else was planning for the future, calculating their breaths, we were untouchable, we were living, we were high, we were chased by wild dogs, we were jumping off cliffs and into the water, we were going at a hundred and eighty kilometers per hour and in that exact split second we thought life and death will turn and meet in an embrace, my god, i swore in that moment, we were all fathomless.


we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.
