Two weeks ago, I was driving up north to unalive myself & heard "Leave a Light On" on the radio for the 1st time. I started sobbing & I'm a grown ass man. I pulled my truck over, found the RUclips video on my phone, and watched it on repeat until dawn the next day. It was the sign 🕊🕊 I needed... at the right time & in the right place. I turned my truck around, after thanking God for interceding with this song, went home, woke up my 2 daughters and hugged them for an hour... crying & hugging them. My youngest asked me, "What's wrong, Daddy?" Me: "Oh, this nice man named Jacoby helped your daddy out last night by leaving his light on for me." THANK YOU, JACOBY & PAPA ROACH!! 🙏😢❤
I don't know you, but I just cried with you. Your testimony truly touched me. I'm so glad that God was with you & your babies still get your hugs. God bless you & always be with you. ❤
I'm so proud of you! I'm thankful that your daughters still have their Daddy to give them love and hugs ❤🤗! God always keeps a light on for us, especially in our darkest moments!
I’m 41 years old. My senior year I got called out of class. I go down the hall way and a teacher of mine is walking towards me crying. She grabs my books and said, “Honey come with me.” We go out the front doors of my high school and there’s my principal, brother, his gf, step-dad and my mom. My stomach turned as my brother tells me our dad is gone. That was one of the worst days of my life. He took his life inside his Bodyshop. Then 14 years later my baby sister took her life. I am here to tell you…. You are enough!! You are loved!! My heart goes out to everyone who suffers silently. We are not alone. I love you all ❤
One week ago i almost took my own life. I sat and prayed that someone would stop me. A random stranger sat and talked to me in the pouring rain and told me she liked me even though she didn't know me. It meant so much to me. Listen, no matter what someone loves you. *I* love you You are strong. In case nobody told you today, you're beautiful, i love you and im proud of you . I hope this message reaches the person who needs this most. You're never alone 💌💌💌
Thanks y'all I really appreciate that ❤️ you should listen to next life by Rosie. Just remember every day you have a chance to start over. All you have to do is show up 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Carrie has said many times over the years that she’s a metalhead at heart. It’s something I’ve been waiting a LONG time for and am so glad it’s here!!!! ❤
@@Allthemotioninwhite Oh sweet, I didn’t know she was a hard rock fan. I don’t really listen to country, so I don’t know much about her. She’s definitely a great singer!
My father passed away 2yrs ago, I've wanted to leave this earth 12yrs ago, he told me that the weak take the easy way out, I give 110 percent everyday! I'll make you proud dad!
That’s great that your fighting. People who die by suicide have mental illness and see NO way out. I’m sure they fought as hard as they could. Love to anyone who is fighting.❤🙏🏻
It’s easy to die for someone but it can be difficult to live and stay alive for someone. Living your best life every day and touching the hearts of others is how you can honor your dad the most. Everybody dies but not everybody lives. Let’s choose life! ❤️❤️
I've struggled with suicidal thoughts for most of my life. My faith in God and my support group are the only reason I'm still here. There's no shame in reaching out for help it doesn't make you weak. It takes true strength to pick up the phone and ask for help. This song will help so many people who are suffering in silence. I love Papa Roach!
ALWAYS REMEMBER..YOU MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE!! YOU MATTER TO ME N IDONT EVEN KNOW YOU BUT I LOVE YOU FOR NOT GIVING UP ON YOURSELF!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
My Dad took his life 20 years ago. I am still here waiting with the light on Dad. I love you and I know if you could do it all over you would be with me here today.
I am there some times when Noone is around My dad died in my arms and I wish I had the strength to tell him what I should have but the fear gripped me so hard I could not find the words. God bless all who feel the pain.
Omfg just made me cry like holy fuck !!!! Bless your dad even after he’s act and leaving you behind this way!!! You will meet again someday and he will hold you forever !!! 😢
The sad part is, most people never see the person struggling with crippling depression. Because those people mask that side of themselves. Until it's too late.
My hubby took his life a year ago now. We have a 5 year old boy who loved his daddy. He was my soulmate and best friend. and this song just hits home. Makes me soo sad I wish I could have saved him. I miss him soo much. 😢 we need to spread mental health awareness more. We grew up listening to papa roach being 85 baby and I love Carrie underwood this was an amazing duet. I love you Robert Michael. R.I.P. my love 🙏🏼❤
Mama died July 4th, 1988 and dad took his own life on September 15, 1989. He had written a letter called Mates for life about mama. Myself and siblings thought we had dad in a good place. Suicide is hard.
On june 13th, 2024, I stopped drinking after 21 years of binge drinking. I was as close as I could have been to end up my life, I was at the end of the road but somehow, now, I am 79 days sober and I have never felt better in my life. This song is incredible, thank you for it. Never stop trying to get better, you will succeed. We love Papa Roach.
My little brother Nathan lost his battle with depression and took his life nearly 16 years ago. This song resonates deep with me. I tell each of my kids multiple times a day that I love them & would rather listen to their sorrows for days than attend another funeral. They all know that this is my favorite song. I will scream from the treetops YOU BELONG HERE! I hope each and every one of you know that you are deeply loved. I love you all and am here to listen. I know I’m a stranger, but we are all in the metal family. I’ve got your back!
We need more people like you who will reach out to even the strangers we know, just to give them hope and to let them know they are loved and needed here on this earth.
✝️ Repent and believe the gospel of Jesus Christ I Corinthians 15:1-4 NKJV [1] Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, [2] by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you-unless you believed in vain. [3] For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, [4] and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,
I have dealt with depression myself and it's not easy battle to overcome and but God with you every step of the way and your little brother and just remember to never give up and God will get you though
My husband tragically passed away 10wks ago. 14yrs of marriage we have 2 beautiful children together, 10 & 8, who miss their daddy so much. I play & sing this song to them now & forever, to let them know we are always here for them, even when the darkness & emotion gets too much. I hope you know how powerful the music you make helps us all in different ways. This is a beautiful mass up of different genre voices, Carrie was an amazing pick!
Stay strong. Weak people think god doesn’t exist, it’s not “cool”. Know that he does and everything that happens, we don’t understand or agree with but it was for a reason. Be strong for your kids and show them love everyday!
Just played this for my wife who is struggling with a recent stage 4 liver cancer that was found during a 3 weeks hospital stay fighting a bowel leak causing an infection. Her pain sometime leaves me without words to help ease it, this song took what i cant say and hopefully reminds her I am here for her and our 4 daughters. My wife is only 44 yrs old and our kids have many years to grow that she is afraid of missing.🙏❤️
The fact that suicide is even an issue is devastating. Mental health should be put first and foremost. Don't ever make anyone feel any other kind of way than loved. We only have one life to live. Spread happiness and not hate. Learn to identify someone who is suffering. Just because someone smiles doesn't mean they are happy. And NEVER make someone feel ashamed for the way they feel. You never know what someone else has gone or is going through. Much love ❤️
BEEN THERE, HURT BY OTHERS JUST BEING CRUEL HUMANS WITH NO HEART. IT'S TRUE, NO ONE KNOWS WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH, WHAT YOUR BATTLING, & HOW WHAT THEY DO OR SAY CAN CUT DEEP. NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO JUDGE YOU OR DARKEN YOUR SHINE.
Living with what I've done and seen in war has become too much to bear. I thank my wife of 21 years for being my light. My message to those who also suffer, it will get better.
You were under orders. Please give yourself some grace for that. If you feel this badly about it you're a very good man, and you have a wonderful woman in your life because of it. Thank you for your service doesn't cover it since service entails a lot more sometimes than people realize. It's that horrible weight you carry. But thank you. For your service.
Thank you for your service. “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” and you sir are a good man with a good family. Keep your head held high.
They say to never let yourself become emotionless. So, what I can say is that this song will pull out every emotion you thought you could not feel and feel Loved. Wanted and Needed in this Life we Live! Leave A Light On will always have my heart forever and ever!
I’m already emotionless. Lost my wife to a drunk driver 8 years ago. Been raising my kids alone. Got cancer 2 years ago, and it left sores and marks on my arms because I had a negative reaction to chemo. No woman in this world would ever love a cancer survivor with 2 daughters , and a special needs son.
Professional opera/pop singer here or was pass my time now. But, Oh Heavens NO!! I've heard her sing acapella and she couldn't hold a tune not even a high note, I remember while watching her singing acapella she was horrible and she tried to do a high note and couldn't do it. I'm not kidding you. She has to be using reverb (overlay or pre-recorded recording) on stage to be able for her audience to think she's hitting or holding a high note. If it wasn't for all four +more plugins she wouldn't be a singer or a decent singer. Those plugins make your voice sound like magic. She even admits, surprisingly, that she uses these plugins. Every time I hear her sing she sounds like she's fixing to swallow her tongue. She said one time that she had to squeeze her cheeks so hard to get those high notes out. Really?? Then you're doing them all wrong it should be with effortless easy. Let me give her some advice, if you have to squeeze your cheeks and lock up your whole body in order to get those high notes out..then you're doing them ALL wrong and you don't have enough air reserve in your lungs. I don't know who her vocal coach is but she needs to be fired, because she's going to cause Carrie to bust a vocal cord and have to have surgery to "maybe" fix it. When she first won American idol one of her beginners tours she went and sung with an opera group, and ooh man was she embarrassed because she couldn't hit any tune she was so hickey..and you could see the embarrassment on her face. She looked like, "Oh I'm being shown up." Yes dear you're out of your league. And let's talk about her snobby attitude all around Nashville makes her even worse for likeability. That's the rumor around Nashville... And the influences of Simon Cowel..Is definitely what helped her.😁 I could probably handle her voice "a little" if she wasn't such a snobby ungrateful and entitled person!! There's so much not to like about her I could go on and on and on. But I'm going to leave it there. 😁
Thank you, Papa Roach and Carrie Underwood for singing this song. It's an incredibly difficult topic for people to talk about, partially because of the stigma, not knowing who to talk to without judgment or overreaction, and so many other reasons. This song is a powerful message to people struggling with suicidal ideations or to people who know someone in their life that is struggling.
Over a decade ago my cousin attempted to take his life. He survived, if you could call it that. Lengthy hospital stay, full face transplant. He still struggles to this day. Three years ago last month my brother took his life. Two weeks after my brother one of my best friends took his life. Then last April it was my son's turn. I managed to intervene, drove two hours to where he had driven to, and rescued him. I have been suicidal for a good majority of my life. If it weren't for my 5 children, if it weren't for the absolute miracle of getting pregnant at 19 because doing so saved my life, I wouldn't be here. The amount of trauma I deal with surrounding this subject is immense. Layers upon layers. Thank you for putting a spotlight on this subject. I listen to this song and Chester's (One More Light)when I need a moment to just sit in that trauma, briefly, and then quickly move out of it so that it doesn't consume my every waking moment.
Thank you for sharing. You are so amazing and strong. Don't ever forget that. Keep shining to help shed that light and hope to your kids. It's tough but look at all you've made it through already! God bless! ❤
My goodness... it's a grief and burden that you should never experienced or have to endure. My heart is with, yes even as a stranger. You keep shining that light. You are important and worthy and matter. 🫶🏽🤍
I love Papa Roach, but I didn’t know he could sing like this!!!🤯Never thought I’d see him and Carrie Underwood singing together either. This is UNREAL! Amazing
i just think all the songs like this should be collab especially a male and female vocalist.. there is something special when the woman drops in to these types of songs even love songs for that matter after a man just poured his heart out on the track.. raw emotion is the realest art form
I need to hear this collab! They definitely need to do more together but this song really hits home. Between addiction and being suicidal at some point in time in my life. Have also had lots of friends kill themselves. Thank you papa roach and Carrie underwood!
As someone who’s lost 11 friends by their own hands,and because I am only here because Someone had enough faith in me to leave a light on- more than once., I just want to say Thank You for this song. I promise to keep a light on for someone who needs it. 😞🙏💡
Not only is this song beautiful, but so is everyone here. You are loved and worth being here. Don't fight your fight alone. People do care about you and your story. Tell it. No matter how dark it is. There is a light in for you.
My brother drank himself to death. He was 28. I am now older than my older bubba.He passed away from a broken heart. Life is unkind, and I couldn't relieve his pain, so now he's free from it all.. 🌹
My 30yo daughter did the same. She passed 7/12/22. I tried to save her but couldn't. I can't believe its been 2yrs. This Mama will always have a BROKEN heart.
So many nights praying for a light....sometimes you have to just hang on one second at a time...my soul might not spark a light but it still flickers...
When you're looking for a light, and you can't find one, you are most likely the light you need most ❤ Keep going, you're impacting others, even in the darkness ❤
Papa Roach went from being the band I went to for teenage venting to that comforting hug I find myself needing as an adult. Thank you for this song. This has really helped on dark days.
Not many people know the darkness that others face. Those of us who face our own darkness and come out on top need to always leave a light on to help others. Papa Roach has been that light in mine throughout the years with numerous songs that help through these times. My light is always on for those in need
Dad passed almost 2 years ago (November). The first few months hurt so much as he was my best friend and raised me by himself. It took so much for me to talk myself out of leaving this world but I knew it wasn't what my Dad would have wanted. If you've lost someone dont lose yourself because you're the one who carries on their memory. Keep them alive in your heart and they'll never leave you.
I'm bipolar and have fought depression for most of my life. And I know I'm far from alone in doing so. I really appreciate you raising such a powerful awareness ❤
seek the light in your darkest times there will always be someone there waiting. I recommend Jesus for when you don't have someone of flesh nearby, I promise you can't go wrong. 🙏🙏❤❤. I've seen both sides of that tough disorder and know how hard it can be from 2nd hand experience, and also know most typical people can't grasp the true nature of your feelings but the Lord always can! God bless my friend and I hope you one day can help others who are going through what you do.
Also Bipolar have to take medication to function in life. However I don’t always feel people see it as a serious health condition. It’s like any other illness. Without medicine I can’t function. With it I am stable and high functioning
It comforting to hear that you are doing well. My husband was diagnosed with Bipolar 2 about 2 years ago and is still having trouble finding a medication that will work for him long term.
My daughter took her life at age 35. She is greatly missed. Her two children have needed her so much. If you are contemplating suicide, don't! You are loved, you are needed more than you realize!
My condolences... i was in that state of mind last year and i was 35 also and have 2 children. I finally went to my primary and said please help, i had zoloft after my second son (post partum depression) and i asked to be put back on it. I am truly sorry about her inner battle. She was far too young. But she is now her babies guardian angel. ❤ best of luck and prayers.
Dry bones rattle in a lonely soul Slipped and fell into a deep black hole I can tell you're lost, I'm here for you Wildfires burning you down to stone Blind eyes, turning from a world so cold A million miles apart, within my reach It's not like me to worry But when I see you fading in the dark I'll leave a light on for you Through the long nights, I will be right There for you if you drift too far I'll leave a light on for you, you, you Rain comes following an endless drought To wash away the remnants of all your doubt I hope that you'll see me looking out It's not like me to worry But when I see you fading in the dark I'll leave a light on for you Through the long nights, I will be right There for you if you drift too far I'll leave a light on for you Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Through the long nights, I will be right There for you if you drift too far I'll leave a light on for you, you, you
I succeeded in taking my life, and some very determined caring professionals brought me back, I was angry at first cause I didn't want to be here, but after some time and 2 beautiful children later I am eternally grateful to them for saving me from myself. They're heroes, they're real angels!
My son was stillborn back in December. My husband and I never felt more alone and hopeless. My family is the only reason we're both still here and now we have another reason to still be here and keep fighting 🩷💙. History will not repeat itself.

@@katiekedavra1206 praying for safe healthy delivery! Hugs
My daughter lost her son 5 days before her due date. That was 4 years ago and she is still struggling greatly. Prayers to you and your husband in this difficult time😢
Recently diagnosed with stage four cancer. Amazing how God brings us things to help us battle. I know the song is about suicide but it speaks to the darkness that is cancer as well
I dedicate this song to my friend Laurie. She took her life almost 25 years ago. We were great friends, almost like mother and daughter, since she was a lot older than me. She never told me she wanted to end it, let alone tell me she was depressed. I miss her every day.
Papa roach, when this came out I was homeless, in and out of jail, and unhealthy. Now I have a house, a good job, and a husband. This song and "Clover Cage - Summer Of Love" are the two songs that helped overcome my depression. I just want everyone to know things do get better, and they will! We are in this together. I love you ❤️🎉
shes been on record saying she listens to screamo in the gym (I Prevail I remember her saying). she should do more clean vocal collabs on heavier songs!
This collaboration and song was the thing that I didn't know I needed. My dad died 22 years ago when I was 13. He died due to White Matters Disease, he was 3rd in the US to have it and 18th Worldwide. He became sick in December of 2001 and died February 25th, 2002. I have struggled since he died and thought about suicide several times but something kept pulling me back. So glad they recorded this song.
46, type 2 bipolar, survived several attempts that left me disabled. This song is a God send, and I am grateful that they did this. Depression hurts, that is something that people just don't seem to understand no matter how often it is explained. The isolation, all the joy and color drained out of life, knowing that it won't get better and every moment is just another shade of misery, fucking hurts. I am not sure how I have gotten through some of those days, but other days, songs like this make all the difference. And to anyone currently struggling with depression, don't listen to the lies, you are never alone.
I’m looking forward to this song. It was the last song I ever sent my dad before he passed away a year ago. Thank you, Papa Roach, for making this song. I love and miss you, dad. ❤️
God be with me and everyone in pain , I been going through a lot of pain since 2015 from everything and right now my pain is my beautiful smart baby girl is heading out in this big world away from me, I lost so many family members and friends. God please keep me strong and everyone , Amen 🙏🏼 ❤ Thank you God , beautiful emotional song❤️🙏🏼🦋
My father committed suicide on Easter when I was 5. My heart truly goes out to anyone who has lost a loved one to suicide. I know your pain. I know the empty future memories where they won’t be. I thought the hardest part was when I was a child. It wasn’t until I became a mother that truly saw what he missed out on and is missing out on. I love you all. God is with you. ❤
Chester would be so proud to see this collab... yall did such an amazing job. I couldn't imagine this live, I've seen Papa Roach live twice and them, Falling In Reverse and Shinedown are my top favorite live shows I've seen.
I wish my Uncle was still alive to hear this. Three tours in Vietnam back to back and he never really came home. The war demons were always in his head and nothing helped until one cold dark lonely night when the demons finally won.
My brother served in Iraq and Afghanistan. He didn't come back the same, the demons never left. He's still here but the last time I saw him whole and who he really is was 1999. My father in law and uncle went to Vietnam, my father in law slept in a lazy boy with a knife and screamed in his sleep about Charlie and tigers. My uncle couldn't stand anything vaguely Asian and got full disability in the 1980s because of it. He was a tunnel rat and it never left them. War is hell and no one returns the same. So sorry for your loss.
Too many veterans who stepped up and served are taking their lives as they try to get passed what they saw. In 2023, 27 veterans take their life. All it cost is a little bit of your time to be there with/for them. I lost a cousin to suicide last month and his mom is devastated.
@@DianeEvans-hp6ui there are resources to help prevent this. Reach out to him and try to lead him to them. It's okay if he doesn't want to tell you what happened, as long as he's talking to people who can help him. Be the light he needs.
So much I want to post to this. I am a survivor I now have 13 years sober, a wife, and a son. I get to live a life I never imagined possible. Our small community has had 9 completions thus far this year. My heart breaks for these families.
My brother recently passed he suffered from manic depression. We tried everything we could to help him, but still, the feeling of guilt is overwhelming on me, and I wish I would have done more! My husband shared this song with me today because he's seen my struggle. Brother, I will keep that light on always for you! So come visit me in my dreams and let me know you're OK and that you've found that peace you've been searching for! ❤ I love you for always! Miss you forever! ❤
@monicatovar9174 I'm so so sorry. Not the same, but I tried to stop my dad. We just have to fight and know we did our hardest. I pray you have a great support system. Prayers and hugs
I grew up labeled with ADHD my entire life and faced rejection and abuse. My first marriage ended with my daughter being taken away from me, and I haven't seen her in 6 years. At my lowest point, I had an encounter with God while claiming a mountain in Canada, and I surrendered my life fully to Jesus. Jesus. Not religion, but an actual relationship. That transformation has led to a new marriage with two beautiful kids, an incredible passion for others, and a hunger to believe What? I cannot see. Reading super powerful book right now. Called heaven by Randy alcorn, and I've never been so excited for what is to come. God loves to restore what is broken. Hold fast to hope, do not give up, and do not give in. God is after your heart friend, And He feels the weight of your pain and loss Even when no words can describe it. You are not alone.
Joel 2:25 says "I will restore to you the years the locusts have eaten" I fullllly believe this is true. We have similar stories and I'm super glad you're here and growing your heart in a place you've found unconditional love and comfort. I'm still working on it, but I'm so mych better than I used to be. 🫶
My husband took his life. It’ll be two years in October. This song helps me get through a lot. suicide and mental health is a real issue that people are too afraid to talk about well. I feel it’s time we talk about it instead of keep losing people that we love.
I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my youngest son March 2023 to suicide. We need to do more to stop this. Ask questions. Listen. Don't judge people Love each other.
My youngest brother in my family of 6, took his life at 19 😞 it was 35 years ago, but he will never be forgotten ❤️ After he left, our family broke apart 🥲. Please think how it will affect your loved ones! Every day I wish I could have said something more for him to realize how much we loved him !! RIP in Heaven Michael… now w Mom and Dad 🙏
@acetyp I'm so sorry for your loss and the terrible heartache and the pain of our loss is just awful. Sending hugs and prayers from Ireland 🇮🇪 my eldest son would be 42 this year .💚☘️🙏✨️
It’s one year ago this month that my daughter suffered a major mental health crisis. Today, she is doing well and thriving. It’s because we her family and friends embraced her and helped her work her way back. Too many people today still place such a negative narrative on mental health. People who suffer, still suffer in silence. It’s not just about raising money. It’s about truly breaking the stigma and mental health facilities waking up to the issue that they are part of the problem. I saw first hand how they treat these people. Drug them up to make them passive and not bothering them. Jacoby has always been a huge advocate. He has been there. Kudos to Jacoby and Carrie. Great song. Touches many of us more than you will ever know. True change only happens when we ALL recognize the failures of the system and we ALL DEMAND changes. For those who say, it doesn’t affect me or my loved ones. I say, I use to say that too.
It is so true about how the political constitutions and the mental health complex are all contributing to the problem. It is so contradictory to their "mission" of "ending stigma" that it is so suspicious of what their actual agenda is. I had been manipulated and abused by psychiatrists too, which worsened my trauma and suicidal ideation. I am also suffering from psych medication withdrawals which my doctor refused to acknowledge and help. It is an issue of misplace trust and betrayal. Now I know better, and am relying on faith to heal and work my way back. I'm happy your daughter is thriving. She is blessed to have you as a mom and to have supportive friends around her. I hope I can thrive too as I have been too traumatised by the medical system.
Been thru similar with my teenage daughter. Instead of telling her o u will be ok we worked as a family as a unit to support her stand beside her and back her up and let her know it's ok to not be ok but we WILL BE OK. I jus made a post about this song on my fb it can help so many people from all different directions such a powerful song and message that they r singing and pouring there heart into to reach probably majority of our humanity if only they would just listen.... sometimes just listening is a big start to a new day a new chapter woo
@@kassro40100% true. Support and listening are the keys. My daughter was 26 at the time and they wouldn’t let us know or say anything. She was in no position to help herself and told the drs, my parents will make the decisions. Even after signing paperwork, the hospital still refused to listen to us. The mental health system is not only broken but very abusive to the people they’re suppose to be helping. I’m happy your child is doing well. God bless. As I tell my own daughter. It’s not about the fall, it’s about getting back up and fighting for your life.
Your post rings so very true. So much money goes into the mental health system, yet anyone going to it for assistance can give example after example of its failure. Facilities do not have properly trained staff, psychiatric medicines promote suicidal thoughts, therapy in psych centers is non-existent and many more detrimental experiences exist with the mental health system. Our American society is uneducated, as I was, on so many things concerning mental health. I have to believe if more of us gained awareness of the horrible state of the mental health system, an overhaul would not only be demanded but it would happen. The suicide rate and the number of people struggling with mental health issues will only continue to grow until something drastic is forced to occur.
Mine was 12... mental awareness needs to be taken serious at all ages it doesn discriminate she is 14 now and doing so much better and the system (mental hospitals) are not the answer there support system around them is. Giving them a safe place to come to to lean on in any way needed ❤@@raynavarra
I really want to thank you for this song in the past few months I’ve felt myself drifting away from the light but I’m glad that someone has left a light on for me that is where I’m at right now 3:07
Gotta reach out, for God! But, help is help, and human kindness is part of his love for us. Not everyone believes the same. I get that! Known too many who couldn't escape the darkness. Hopefully, this lovely song is help to those people to reach out...❤
My cousin took his life last year. He was a former army soldier. I wish that I could have shared this song with him, to show him that he is loved and that no matter the demons that people face, there are brothers and sisters out there that can put on the armor to help them fight back. Thanks Papa Roach and Carrie Underwood.
My closet Uncle took his life when I was 15 ... He was the one person that made me find the beauty within myself when I could see none. I wish I could have seen his pain and wasn't too young to understand it. I love you Trace. RIP
Lost my mom to ovarian cancer in February of this year.. and she kept strong until her last breath. This song makes me think of holding her hand as she passed ❤❤ thank you for this
so sorry for your loss, lost mine to colon cancer, this song was so great, brought immediate tears to my eyes, There's a light by Michael McDonald, i listen to that when i'm down, check it out , may help, love, peace, an happiness
Carrie marries one of my favorite Nashville Predators ever(Mike, please be coach!!). Now, she duets in one of my favorite songs ever. A personal top 10. LOVE IT!! I hope this gets cross played on country music stations so even people more know they are NOT ever alone.
I love this. Wish my brother and my father got to hear this song. For everyone else, I hope you find that light and hold on to it. You are worthy of it. You are enough.
I tried so hard to keep my best friend here but she still took her life. I will always leave a light on in her memory for anyone who needs someone to talk them out of the dark. I love you sis. Always.
I lost 3 friends 5 weeks apart 8 years ago. 2 were brothers all of us best friends from our small town of 500. In our 30s. 6yrs ago my brother in law and last Feb 2023 my dad also took his life. This song is important. Talking and bringing awareness and making it so people aren’t ashamed to reach out is critical. Check in on each other and ask the tough questions. Seek help if you are feeling hopeless. I know that’s easier said than done but please know you are worth it and so loved. I hope everyone has a gentle day.
This is a beautiful song that touches the soul. I survived my first extremely attempt back in 2015. I dont remember much about it, but regained some puzzles over the years. I use to go through attempts after attempts. Felt so lost in the world and felt alone too. However for a year now, I have felt so at ease with my life.
Haunting intro and first verse , sitting here with tears rolling down ny cheeks. 3:40 I too struggle daily with dark thoughts. I hide it as best I can from friends and family , My kids are the only reason that I haven't followed through with my impulses. I know they would never understand. This song says what I cant.
Same for me Bro, I totally relate to your statement. May God bless you and your children, I hope we both achieve peace and serenity in our lives. Know you are not alone, and there's help available 🙏❤✨️🙌
I'm Jazzy by the way. I listen to P Roach a lonnnnnggg. Time. I really love you guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I Appreciate you guys very much! You're the Best Band, like my favorite 🤟💀🤟 Rock N Roll Baby!!!! 😝😝😝😝 Woooohooooo!! 🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳
My beautiful wife fought crippling mental and physical illness for many years. Seven years ago she ended all of her pain. I miss her every day. Thank you for this song. A couple years after she died, I wrote some lyrics about what she went through and how I was trying (failing) to deal with it. Had an idea a friend could set it to music, but I never followed through. Grief changes everything.
To be blown away by vocals in a Carrie underwood song, and it isn't Carrie that blew u away this time?? Pretty rare I'd have to say!! A first for me actually! Wow dude can sing!!!
So as hard as it is to admit on here, almost one month ago I nearly took myself out. If it wasn't for my grandma calling me and telling me she needed help with something I was about to do it. I had started writing my note, gathered everything in my room, and the call came. I said I would finish when I got home. Then I broke down and started crying. I called a special friend who had reached out to me days before when I had a really bad day. Without hesitation she came over, removed the materials I was gonna use, and sat with me for hours. If you're wondering well what about your grandma? I told my grandma it was gonna be a minute. Well she called back shortly after and said she found what she was looking for. My friend said your grandma called at the perfect time and saved you without even knowing it. Needless to say I'm in a better place, still have hard days but my hope is coming back. This song has been a very special song for me
@idoltyler06 hope will always come back around. We have to enjoy the joy while we have the joy. The hard times are going to come around as well too, u just have to know that better days are ahead too.
U always worth it, even when it seems like it's all over, jus remember ur worth life an life is lucky to have u my dude. Don't know u but much love my friend
It's crazy how this song was sent to me on my verge of giving up. Thanks hey hey. You sent me this for a reason knowing I'm not alone, to leave a light on.
Im a survivor I've tried 2 times it has been a struggle for me but I keep pushing through each day. If I can do it so can you Its not worth taking your own life . Ive been wear you are before. Keep fighting you can get through this. If anyone is reading this ( i may not know you) I'm proud of you for staying your life does matter you may not think that but you matter to me stay one more day
Two weeks ago, I was driving up north to unalive myself & heard "Leave a Light On" on the radio for the 1st time. I started sobbing & I'm a grown ass man. I pulled my truck over, found the RUclips video on my phone, and watched it on repeat until dawn the next day. It was the sign 🕊🕊 I needed... at the right time & in the right place. I turned my truck around, after thanking God for interceding with this song, went home, woke up my 2 daughters and hugged them for an hour... crying & hugging them. My youngest asked me, "What's wrong, Daddy?" Me: "Oh, this nice man named Jacoby helped your daddy out last night by leaving his light on for me." THANK YOU, JACOBY & PAPA ROACH!! 🙏😢❤
Proud of you. I’m glad you’re still here ❤
I don't know you, but I just cried with you. Your testimony truly touched me. I'm so glad that God was with you & your babies still get your hugs. God bless you & always be with you. ❤
I'm so proud of you! I'm thankful that your daughters still have their Daddy to give them love and hugs ❤🤗! God always keeps a light on for us, especially in our darkest moments!
Proud of you lovey, been there too in past, like you someone intervened ❤
I'm glad your here man. That little word HOPE is sometimes all one needs. It saved my life a few times. God bless you and your family.
I wish Chester was alive to hear this one...
Thank you Papa Roach for this magnificent song 💗
💚💚💚
It does make me now wanna listen to lp one more light ❤

This song was dedicated to Chester Bennington.
I hope Chester is still alive to hear this song.
I’m 41 years old.
My senior year I got called out of class. I go down the hall way and a teacher of mine is walking towards me crying. She grabs my books and said, “Honey come with me.” We go out the front doors of my high school and there’s my principal, brother, his gf, step-dad and my mom. My stomach turned as my brother tells me our dad is gone. That was one of the worst days of my life. He took his life inside his Bodyshop. Then 14 years later my baby sister took her life.
I am here to tell you…. You are enough!! You are loved!! My heart goes out to everyone who suffers silently. We are not alone. I love you all ❤
❤❤ love and peace to you
What a beautiful message. You are enough too. Peace & Love 💕 ☀️

One week ago i almost took my own life. I sat and prayed that someone would stop me. A random stranger sat and talked to me in the pouring rain and told me she liked me even though she didn't know me.
It meant so much to me.
Listen, no matter what someone loves you.
*I* love you
You are strong.
In case nobody told you today, you're beautiful, i love you and im proud of you .

Papa Roach and Carrie Underwood is something I never would have thought happening. WOW!
Carrie has said many times over the years that she’s a metalhead at heart. It’s something I’ve been waiting a LONG time for and am so glad it’s here!!!! ❤

Perfect version of the song.
Ive been a big fan of Carrie for a while and she adds something to this song which i didnt think it needed but does
Absolutely ❤
My father passed away 2yrs ago, I've wanted to leave this earth 12yrs ago, he told me that the weak take the easy way out, I give 110 percent everyday! I'll make you proud dad!
That’s great that your fighting. People who die by suicide have mental illness and see NO way out. I’m sure they fought as hard as they could. Love to anyone who is fighting.❤🙏🏻
Stay strong 💪
My mum used to say this too and she died last year :(
God bless
It’s easy to die for someone but it can be difficult to live and stay alive for someone.
Living your best life every day and touching the hearts of others is how you can honor your dad the most. Everybody dies but not everybody lives.
Let’s choose life! ❤️❤️

I've struggled with suicidal thoughts for most of my life. My faith in God and my support group are the only reason I'm still here. There's no shame in reaching out for help it doesn't make you weak. It takes true strength to pick up the phone and ask for help. This song will help so many people who are suffering in silence. I love Papa Roach!

Omg 😢Damn i felt that! I'm so so sorry 😞 ❤
Sorry for your loss ✊🏼
That's horrible,when you're suffering so bad ,that's in your mind your only out .
I am there some times when Noone is around
My dad died in my arms and I wish I had the strength to tell him what I should have but the fear gripped me so hard I could not find the words.
God bless all who feel the pain.
Omfg just made me cry like holy fuck !!!! Bless your dad even after he’s act and leaving you behind this way!!! You will meet again someday and he will hold you forever !!! 😢
The sad part is, most people never see the person struggling with crippling depression. Because those people mask that side of themselves. Until it's too late.
You are so right! I've done it for years!
Me, too 😢 ❤
@CrazyMama1957 I'm so sorry for you I definitely know how you feel!
Personally, I put a mask on to not worry the people around me. They don't need to suffer that darkness as well.
Yup and we are masters of disguise… learning from our pain…. Don’t Tell…
To everyone: You are beautiful, you are worthy, you are capable of happiness, and you are loved.
This 🙌🏻 !!!!! you can reach out to me if anyone ever feels this way.
Beautifully ❤said!❤

This is so good but you must hear “City” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
Thank you
My hubby took his life a year ago now. We have a 5 year old boy who loved his daddy. He was my soulmate and best friend. and this song just hits home. Makes me soo sad I wish I could have saved him. I miss him soo much. 😢 we need to spread mental health awareness more. We grew up listening to papa roach being 85 baby and I love Carrie underwood this was an amazing duet. I love you Robert Michael. R.I.P. my love 🙏🏼❤
Mama died July 4th, 1988 and dad took his own life on September 15, 1989. He had written a letter called Mates for life about mama. Myself and siblings thought we had dad in a good place. Suicide is hard.
They're watching over you and are proud of you always. Believe it ❤ I love you and I'm sorry you both suffered these losses. I'm proud of you
Sending you and your boy so much love, sweetheart 🫶🏻🖤

On june 13th, 2024, I stopped drinking after 21 years of binge drinking. I was as close as I could have been to end up my life, I was at the end of the road but somehow, now, I am 79 days sober and I have never felt better in my life. This song is incredible, thank you for it. Never stop trying to get better, you will succeed. We love Papa Roach.
Thank you for your sharing, so powerful and courageous.
My little brother Nathan lost his battle with depression and took his life nearly 16 years ago. This song resonates deep with me. I tell each of my kids multiple times a day that I love them & would rather listen to their sorrows for days than attend another funeral. They all know that this is my favorite song. I will scream from the treetops YOU BELONG HERE! I hope each and every one of you know that you are deeply loved. I love you all and am here to listen. I know I’m a stranger, but we are all in the metal family. I’ve got your back!
We need more people like you who will reach out to even the strangers we know, just to give them hope and to let them know they are loved and needed here on this earth.
Your comment touched me and I had to read it to my husband but thank you for your kind words!
✝️ Repent and believe the gospel of Jesus Christ
I Corinthians 15:1-4 NKJV
[1] Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, [2] by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you-unless you believed in vain. [3] For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, [4] and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,
I have dealt with depression myself and it's not easy battle to overcome and but God with you every step of the way and your little brother and just remember to never give up and God will get you though
Metal Family. FUCKIN RIGHT🤘🏼 I love that❤️
My husband tragically passed away 10wks ago. 14yrs of marriage we have 2 beautiful children together, 10 & 8, who miss their daddy so much. I play & sing this song to them now & forever, to let them know we are always here for them, even when the darkness & emotion gets too much. I hope you know how powerful the music you make helps us all in different ways. This is a beautiful mass up of different genre voices, Carrie was an amazing pick!

Stay strong. Weak people think god doesn’t exist, it’s not “cool”. Know that he does and everything that happens, we don’t understand or agree with but it was for a reason. Be strong for your kids and show them love everyday!
Oh my God, NO. I am SO very sorry. Heart Wrenching. Heart Breaking.
Just played this for my wife who is struggling with a recent stage 4 liver cancer that was found during a 3 weeks hospital stay fighting a bowel leak causing an infection. Her pain sometime leaves me without words to help ease it, this song took what i cant say and hopefully reminds her I am here for her and our 4 daughters. My wife is only 44 yrs old and our kids have many years to grow that she is afraid of missing.🙏❤️

The fact that suicide is even an issue is devastating. Mental health should be put first and foremost. Don't ever make anyone feel any other kind of way than loved. We only have one life to live. Spread happiness and not hate. Learn to identify someone who is suffering. Just because someone smiles doesn't mean they are happy. And NEVER make someone feel ashamed for the way they feel. You never know what someone else has gone or is going through.
Much love ❤️
Very wise advice.
BEEN THERE, HURT BY OTHERS JUST BEING CRUEL HUMANS WITH NO HEART. IT'S TRUE, NO ONE KNOWS WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH, WHAT YOUR BATTLING, & HOW WHAT THEY DO OR SAY CAN CUT DEEP. NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO JUDGE YOU OR DARKEN YOUR SHINE.
💯
This is an incredible crossover for hard rock and country. My goodness.
Living with what I've done and seen in war has become too much to bear. I thank my wife of 21 years for being my light. My message to those who also suffer, it will get better.
You were under orders. Please give yourself some grace for that. If you feel this badly about it you're a very good man, and you have a wonderful woman in your life because of it. Thank you for your service doesn't cover it since service entails a lot more sometimes than people realize. It's that horrible weight you carry. But thank you. For your service.
Thank you for your service. “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” and you sir are a good man with a good family. Keep your head held high.
God bless you thank you for your service
This is so good but you must hear “City” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
They say to never let yourself become emotionless. So, what I can say is that this song will pull out every emotion you thought you could not feel and feel Loved. Wanted and Needed in this Life we Live! Leave A Light On will always have my heart forever and ever!
I’m already emotionless. Lost my wife to a drunk driver 8 years ago. Been raising my kids alone. Got cancer 2 years ago, and it left sores and marks on my arms because I had a negative reaction to chemo. No woman in this world would ever love a cancer survivor with 2 daughters , and a special needs son.

Yes but the collaboration of both. Eargasms
Professional opera/pop singer here or was pass my time now. But, Oh Heavens NO!! I've heard her sing acapella and she couldn't hold a tune not even a high note, I remember while watching her singing acapella she was horrible and she tried to do a high note and couldn't do it. I'm not kidding you. She has to be using reverb (overlay or pre-recorded recording) on stage to be able for her audience to think she's hitting or holding a high note. If it wasn't for all four +more plugins she wouldn't be a singer or a decent singer. Those plugins make your voice sound like magic. She even admits, surprisingly, that she uses these plugins. Every time I hear her sing she sounds like she's fixing to swallow her tongue. She said one time that she had to squeeze her cheeks so hard to get those high notes out. Really?? Then you're doing them all wrong it should be with effortless easy. Let me give her some advice, if you have to squeeze your cheeks and lock up your whole body in order to get those high notes out..then you're doing them ALL wrong and you don't have enough air reserve in your lungs. I don't know who her vocal coach is but she needs to be fired, because she's going to cause Carrie to bust a vocal cord and have to have surgery to "maybe" fix it. When she first won American idol one of her beginners tours she went and sung with an opera group, and ooh man was she embarrassed because she couldn't hit any tune she was so hickey..and you could see the embarrassment on her face. She looked like, "Oh I'm being shown up." Yes dear you're out of your league. And let's talk about her snobby attitude all around Nashville makes her even worse for likeability. That's the rumor around Nashville... And the influences of Simon Cowel..Is definitely what helped her.😁
I could probably handle her voice "a little" if she wasn't such a snobby ungrateful and entitled person!! There's so much not to like about her I could go on and on and on. But I'm going to leave it there. 😁
Thank you, Papa Roach and Carrie Underwood for singing this song. It's an incredibly difficult topic for people to talk about, partially because of the stigma, not knowing who to talk to without judgment or overreaction, and so many other reasons. This song is a powerful message to people struggling with suicidal ideations or to people who know someone in their life that is struggling.
The softer side of Carrie's voice helps to emulated the sadness that is the joy of this song. Great rendition. Beautiful.
Over a decade ago my cousin attempted to take his life. He survived, if you could call it that. Lengthy hospital stay, full face transplant. He still struggles to this day. Three years ago last month my brother took his life. Two weeks after my brother one of my best friends took his life. Then last April it was my son's turn. I managed to intervene, drove two hours to where he had driven to, and rescued him. I have been suicidal for a good majority of my life. If it weren't for my 5 children, if it weren't for the absolute miracle of getting pregnant at 19 because doing so saved my life, I wouldn't be here. The amount of trauma I deal with surrounding this subject is immense. Layers upon layers. Thank you for putting a spotlight on this subject. I listen to this song and Chester's (One More Light)when I need a moment to just sit in that trauma, briefly, and then quickly move out of it so that it doesn't consume my every waking moment.

My 30yo daughter did the same. She passed 7/12/22. I tried to save her but couldn't. I can't believe its been 2yrs. This Mama will always have a BROKEN heart.
Be somebody's light you leave on for them.
So many nights praying for a light....sometimes you have to just hang on one second at a time...my soul might not spark a light but it still flickers...
@kellie2112 flickering means you still have the light within you.
When you're looking for a light, and you can't find one, you are most likely the light you need most ❤ Keep going, you're impacting others, even in the darkness ❤
One of those musical collaborations you weren't expecting but are so glad it happened anyway
Papa Roach went from being the band I went to for teenage venting to that comforting hug I find myself needing as an adult. Thank you for this song. This has really helped on dark days.
Blessed be ❤🙏❤️
Not many people know the darkness that others face. Those of us who face our own darkness and come out on top need to always leave a light on to help others. Papa Roach has been that light in mine throughout the years with numerous songs that help through these times. My light is always on for those in need
Dad passed almost 2 years ago (November). The first few months hurt so much as he was my best friend and raised me by himself. It took so much for me to talk myself out of leaving this world but I knew it wasn't what my Dad would have wanted. If you've lost someone dont lose yourself because you're the one who carries on their memory. Keep them alive in your heart and they'll never leave you.
U don't know what this comment means to me right now. Thanks
Lost mine in 2012 and I was on the same path. There’s a lot to life.

I'm bipolar and have fought depression for most of my life. And I know I'm far from alone in doing so.
I really appreciate you raising such a powerful awareness ❤
seek the light in your darkest times there will always be someone there waiting. I recommend Jesus for when you don't have someone of flesh nearby, I promise you can't go wrong. 🙏🙏❤❤. I've seen both sides of that tough disorder and know how hard it can be from 2nd hand experience, and also know most typical people can't grasp the true nature of your feelings but the Lord always can! God bless my friend and I hope you one day can help others who are going through what you do.
@@johnlombardo7816 thank you so much for that thoughtful comment ❤️
Also Bipolar have to take medication to function in life. However I don’t always feel people see it as a serious health condition. It’s like any other illness. Without medicine I can’t function. With it I am stable and high functioning
It comforting to hear that you are doing well. My husband was diagnosed with Bipolar 2 about 2 years ago and is still having trouble finding a medication that will work for him long term.
to whomever see's this! The World Is A Better Place With You In It! Keep Smiling You Got This
My daughter took her life at age 35. She is greatly missed. Her two children have needed her so much.
If you are contemplating suicide, don't! You are loved, you are needed more than you realize!
I love you and I'm proud of you 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
My condolences... i was in that state of mind last year and i was 35 also and have 2 children. I finally went to my primary and said please help, i had zoloft after my second son (post partum depression) and i asked to be put back on it. I am truly sorry about her inner battle. She was far too young. But she is now her babies guardian angel. ❤ best of luck and prayers.

Sometimes it's because we are needed too much. We can't handle it anymore
Dry bones rattle in a lonely soul
Slipped and fell into a deep black hole
I can tell you're lost, I'm here for you
Wildfires burning you down to stone
Blind eyes, turning from a world so cold
A million miles apart, within my reach
It's not like me to worry
But when I see you fading in the dark
I'll leave a light on for you
Through the long nights, I will be right
There for you if you drift too far
I'll leave a light on for you, you, you
Rain comes following an endless drought
To wash away the remnants of all your doubt
I hope that you'll see me looking out
It's not like me to worry
But when I see you fading in the dark
I'll leave a light on for you
Through the long nights, I will be right
There for you if you drift too far
I'll leave a light on for you
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Through the long nights, I will be right
There for you if you drift too far
I'll leave a light on for you, you, you
I succeeded in taking my life, and some very determined caring professionals brought me back, I was angry at first cause I didn't want to be here, but after some time and 2 beautiful children later I am eternally grateful to them for saving me from myself. They're heroes, they're real angels!
My son was stillborn back in December. My husband and I never felt more alone and hopeless. My family is the only reason we're both still here and now we have another reason to still be here and keep fighting 🩷💙. History will not repeat itself.
@@katiekedavra1206 praying for safe healthy delivery! Hugs
My daughter lost her son 5 days before her due date. That was 4 years ago and she is still struggling greatly. Prayers to you and your husband in this difficult time😢
Recently diagnosed with stage four cancer. Amazing how God brings us things to help us battle. I know the song is about suicide but it speaks to the darkness that is cancer as well
I wish you well and peace. Just remember you are a great person you can overcome
Wishing you strength and love during your fight and good health asap. Never Give Up. You are worth it
Look into carnivore diet. RUclips has some great Dr's. Like Dr Anthony chafee hope it helps
I dedicate this song to my friend Laurie. She took her life almost 25 years ago. We were great friends, almost like mother and daughter, since she was a lot older than me. She never told me she wanted to end it, let alone tell me she was depressed. I miss her every day.
Jakoby and Carries vocals together are just so rich and pure 😭😭
Papa roach, when this came out I was homeless, in and out of jail, and unhealthy. Now I have a house, a good job, and a husband. This song and "Clover Cage - Summer Of Love" are the two songs that helped overcome my depression. I just want everyone to know things do get better, and they will! We are in this together. I love you ❤️🎉
Very glad to hear your doing good
My dad took his life 3 years ago. Leaving a light on for all who are struggling. You are all worthy and needed ❤️
Sending love and prayers! So sorry for your loss! ❤️🙏❤️
Just lost a friend yesterday to suicide. This song hit different today. Be blessed y'all
We are sorry for your loss. Stay strong and talk to those around you.
@@paparoach Thank you so much.
Sorry bro
@@krusemissilevk thank you
Sorry for your loss. Praying for you
What a collaboration!!!! Awesome song and great harmony between Carrie Underwood and Jacoby.
shes been on record saying she listens to screamo in the gym (I Prevail I remember her saying). she should do more clean vocal collabs on heavier songs!
That female at 2:35 always triggers some tears in me. Such a beautiful and painful snapshot of a moment.
This collaboration and song was the thing that I didn't know I needed. My dad died 22 years ago when I was 13. He died due to White Matters Disease, he was 3rd in the US to have it and 18th Worldwide. He became sick in December of 2001 and died February 25th, 2002. I have struggled since he died and thought about suicide several times but something kept pulling me back. So glad they recorded this song.
God loves you and can truly heal your soul if you ask. It's completely free and worth it. He's helped me so much.
Carrie's voice just soars on this. no one is doing it like this anymore awesome collab and great cause!
46, type 2 bipolar, survived several attempts that left me disabled. This song is a God send, and I am grateful that they did this. Depression hurts, that is something that people just don't seem to understand no matter how often it is explained. The isolation, all the joy and color drained out of life, knowing that it won't get better and every moment is just another shade of misery, fucking hurts.
I am not sure how I have gotten through some of those days, but other days, songs like this make all the difference. And to anyone currently struggling with depression, don't listen to the lies, you are never alone.
I’m looking forward to this song. It was the last song I ever sent my dad before he passed away a year ago. Thank you, Papa Roach, for making this song. I love and miss you, dad. ❤️
I am so sorry for your loss ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss 😔
I'm so sorry for your loss 😢 I lost my father in -08 and it still sucks 😢❤❤
Carrie is exactly what this song needed. I LOVE Papa Roach top 5 bands for sure but Carrie on it makes it ten times better.
This one goes far hitting the deepest lake in my soul 1:53
Truly amazing song. THIS IS AWESOME! I love Jacoby's voice
God be with me and everyone in pain , I been going through a lot of pain since 2015 from everything and right now my pain is my beautiful smart baby girl is heading out in this big world away from me, I lost so many family members and friends. God please keep me strong and everyone , Amen 🙏🏼 ❤ Thank you God , beautiful emotional song❤️🙏🏼🦋
Praying for you, your baby girl and all who need hope and prayer to stay strong in the world today🙏🏻
They are beautiful together ❤️ but his voice is mesmerizing ❤
I love his voice
My father committed suicide on Easter when I was 5. My heart truly goes out to anyone who has lost a loved one to suicide. I know your pain. I know the empty future memories where they won’t be. I thought the hardest part was when I was a child. It wasn’t until I became a mother that truly saw what he missed out on and is missing out on. I love you all. God is with you. ❤
Chester would be so proud to see this collab... yall did such an amazing job. I couldn't imagine this live, I've seen Papa Roach live twice and them, Falling In Reverse and Shinedown are my top favorite live shows I've seen.
Shinedown is mine as well. Brent smith is one of the best vocalists of our time
Not many men can match her vocals he is one of the few
Keith Urban did too. Have You heard Fighter by her and Keith Urban?.
Thought that too but I'd say he over powered her slightly on this which surprised me.
@@impeachorrevolt She's singing harmony ... he's supposed to "overpower" her somewhat.
This is so good but you must hear “City” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
In 2009 I was in a very dark place and wanted to end it all. Thankfully I found the light and since then I remember to keep the light on.
I wish my Uncle was still alive to hear this. Three tours in Vietnam back to back and he never really came home. The war demons were always in his head and nothing helped until one cold dark lonely night when the demons finally won.
My brother served in Iraq and Afghanistan. He didn't come back the same, the demons never left. He's still here but the last time I saw him whole and who he really is was 1999. My father in law and uncle went to Vietnam, my father in law slept in a lazy boy with a knife and screamed in his sleep about Charlie and tigers. My uncle couldn't stand anything vaguely Asian and got full disability in the 1980s because of it. He was a tunnel rat and it never left them. War is hell and no one returns the same. So sorry for your loss.
Too many veterans who stepped up and served are taking their lives as they try to get passed what they saw. In 2023, 27 veterans take their life. All it cost is a little bit of your time to be there with/for them. I lost a cousin to suicide last month and his mom is devastated.
My nephew was in the army. Came home hurt. He's 22 I fear this
My dad did the same, the 3rd tour really messed him up.
@@DianeEvans-hp6ui there are resources to help prevent this. Reach out to him and try to lead him to them. It's okay if he doesn't want to tell you what happened, as long as he's talking to people who can help him. Be the light he needs.
So much I want to post to this. I am a survivor I now have 13 years sober, a wife, and a son. I get to live a life I never imagined possible. Our small community has had 9 completions thus far this year. My heart breaks for these families.
Struggling with anxiety & depression looking for that light when it gets dark .. Keep up the good work and getting more musicians involved is huge.
I feel this in my soul! We got this!!!
My brother recently passed he suffered from manic depression. We tried everything we could to help him, but still, the feeling of guilt is overwhelming on me, and I wish I would have done more! My husband shared this song with me today because he's seen my struggle. Brother, I will keep that light on always for you! So come visit me in my dreams and let me know you're OK and that you've found that peace you've been searching for! ❤ I love you for always! Miss you forever! ❤
@monicatovar9174 I'm so so sorry. Not the same, but I tried to stop my dad. We just have to fight and know we did our hardest. I pray you have a great support system. Prayers and hugs
❤❤❤
I grew up labeled with ADHD my entire life and faced rejection and abuse. My first marriage ended with my daughter being taken away from me, and I haven't seen her in 6 years. At my lowest point, I had an encounter with God while claiming a mountain in Canada, and I surrendered my life fully to Jesus. Jesus. Not religion, but an actual relationship. That transformation has led to a new marriage with two beautiful kids, an incredible passion for others, and a hunger to believe What? I cannot see. Reading super powerful book right now. Called heaven by Randy alcorn, and I've never been so excited for what is to come. God loves to restore what is broken. Hold fast to hope, do not give up, and do not give in. God is after your heart friend, And He feels the weight of your pain and loss Even when no words can describe it. You are not alone.
Joel 2:25 says "I will restore to you the years the locusts have eaten" I fullllly believe this is true. We have similar stories and I'm super glad you're here and growing your heart in a place you've found unconditional love and comfort. I'm still working on it, but I'm so mych better than I used to be. 🫶
Jacoby that voice at 0:15 sent chills down my spine
Me too!! ❤

😊😊😊@@sarahnan1
Hits me that same straight up goosebumps
My husband took his life. It’ll be two years in October. This song helps me get through a lot. suicide and mental health is a real issue that people are too afraid to talk about well. I feel it’s time we talk about it instead of keep losing people that we love.
Sorry for your lost
I'm proud of you 💌
I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my youngest son March 2023 to suicide. We need to do more to stop this. Ask questions. Listen. Don't judge people Love each other.
@@sarahmartin822 I'm proud of you and I love you. I'm sorry for your loss. ❤️
I'm so sorry. You are doing the impossible, but you're doing it. My husband also took his life. You're not alone. Keep going ❤
I’m a month sober I’m grateful to be alive came close a few times ❤ I’m 51 x looking forward never backward much love x
This collab was NOT on my bingo card but I love it.
My youngest brother in my family of 6, took his life at 19 😞 it was 35 years ago, but he will never be forgotten ❤️ After he left, our family broke apart 🥲. Please think how it will affect your loved ones! Every day I wish I could have said something more for him to realize how much we loved him !!
RIP in Heaven Michael… now w Mom and Dad 🙏
@acetyp I'm so sorry for your loss and the terrible heartache and the pain of our loss is just awful. Sending hugs and prayers from Ireland 🇮🇪 my eldest son would be 42 this year .💚☘️🙏✨️

"Sometimes is not being in the dark the problem, the problem is seeing that nobody sees the light . " Amazing lyrics 🫡
It’s one year ago this month that my daughter suffered a major mental health crisis. Today, she is doing well and thriving. It’s because we her family and friends embraced her and helped her work her way back. Too many people today still place such a negative narrative on mental health. People who suffer, still suffer in silence. It’s not just about raising money. It’s about truly breaking the stigma and mental health facilities waking up to the issue that they are part of the problem. I saw first hand how they treat these people. Drug them up to make them passive and not bothering them. Jacoby has always been a huge advocate. He has been there. Kudos to Jacoby and Carrie. Great song. Touches many of us more than you will ever know. True change only happens when we ALL recognize the failures of the system and we ALL DEMAND changes. For those who say, it doesn’t affect me or my loved ones. I say, I use to say that too.
It is so true about how the political constitutions and the mental health complex are all contributing to the problem. It is so contradictory to their "mission" of "ending stigma" that it is so suspicious of what their actual agenda is. I had been manipulated and abused by psychiatrists too, which worsened my trauma and suicidal ideation. I am also suffering from psych medication withdrawals which my doctor refused to acknowledge and help. It is an issue of misplace trust and betrayal. Now I know better, and am relying on faith to heal and work my way back. I'm happy your daughter is thriving. She is blessed to have you as a mom and to have supportive friends around her. I hope I can thrive too as I have been too traumatised by the medical system.
Been thru similar with my teenage daughter. Instead of telling her o u will be ok we worked as a family as a unit to support her stand beside her and back her up and let her know it's ok to not be ok but we WILL BE OK. I jus made a post about this song on my fb it can help so many people from all different directions such a powerful song and message that they r singing and pouring there heart into to reach probably majority of our humanity if only they would just listen.... sometimes just listening is a big start to a new day a new chapter woo
@@kassro40100% true. Support and listening are the keys. My daughter was 26 at the time and they wouldn’t let us know or say anything. She was in no position to help herself and told the drs, my parents will make the decisions. Even after signing paperwork, the hospital still refused to listen to us. The mental health system is not only broken but very abusive to the people they’re suppose to be helping. I’m happy your child is doing well. God bless. As I tell my own daughter. It’s not about the fall, it’s about getting back up and fighting for your life.
Your post rings so very true. So much money goes into the mental health system, yet anyone going to it for assistance can give example after example of its failure. Facilities do not have properly trained staff, psychiatric medicines promote suicidal thoughts, therapy in psych centers is non-existent and many more detrimental experiences exist with the mental health system. Our American society is uneducated, as I was, on so many things concerning mental health. I have to believe if more of us gained awareness of the horrible state of the mental health system, an overhaul would not only be demanded but it would happen. The suicide rate and the number of people struggling with mental health issues will only continue to grow until something drastic is forced to occur.
Mine was 12... mental awareness needs to be taken serious at all ages it doesn discriminate she is 14 now and doing so much better and the system (mental hospitals) are not the answer there support system around them is. Giving them a safe place to come to to lean on in any way needed ❤@@raynavarra
I really want to thank you for this song in the past few months I’ve felt myself drifting away from the light but I’m glad that someone has left a light on for me that is where I’m at right now 3:07
So happy for you
All you have to do is reach out. You are not alone. ❤
Gotta reach out, for God! But, help is help, and human kindness is part of his love for us.
Not everyone believes the same.
I get that!
Known too many who couldn't escape the darkness.
Hopefully, this lovely song is help to those people to reach out...❤
My cousin took his life last year. He was a former army soldier. I wish that I could have shared this song with him, to show him that he is loved and that no matter the demons that people face, there are brothers and sisters out there that can put on the armor to help them fight back. Thanks Papa Roach and Carrie Underwood.
My closet Uncle took his life when I was 15 ... He was the one person that made me find the beauty within myself when I could see none. I wish I could have seen his pain and wasn't too young to understand it. I love you Trace. RIP

I tried so hard to keep my best friend here but she still took her life. I will always leave a light on in her memory for anyone who needs someone to talk them out of the dark. I love you sis. Always.

I lost 3 friends 5 weeks apart 8 years ago. 2 were brothers all of us best friends from our small town of 500. In our 30s. 6yrs ago my brother in law and last Feb 2023 my dad also took his life. This song is important. Talking and bringing awareness and making it so people aren’t ashamed to reach out is critical. Check in on each other and ask the tough questions. Seek help if you are feeling hopeless. I know that’s easier said than done but please know you are worth it and so loved. I hope everyone has a gentle day.
I am so sorry for so many losses in your life
Amen 🙏 😢
This is a beautiful song that touches the soul. I survived my first extremely attempt back in 2015. I dont remember much about it, but regained some puzzles over the years. I use to go through attempts after attempts. Felt so lost in the world and felt alone too. However for a year now, I have felt so at ease with my life.
This is so good but you must hear “City” or “Live Not Survive” by SLT 🤘🎧🔥
Haunting intro and first verse , sitting here with tears rolling down ny cheeks. 3:40 I too struggle daily with dark thoughts. I hide it as best I can from friends and family , My kids are the only reason that I haven't followed through with my impulses. I know they would never understand. This song says what I cant.
A light is always with us
Same for me Bro, I totally relate to your statement. May God bless you and your children, I hope we both achieve peace and serenity in our lives. Know you are not alone, and there's help available 🙏❤✨️🙌
Yay!!!!!!!! I ❤ Papa Roach 🪳 and Carrie Underwood Beautiful voice.

My beautiful wife fought crippling mental and physical illness for many years. Seven years ago she ended all of her pain. I miss her every day.
Thank you for this song. A couple years after she died, I wrote some lyrics about what she went through and how I was trying (failing) to deal with it. Had an idea a friend could set it to music, but I never followed through. Grief changes everything.
What a collaboration! I could listen to you both singing together constantly. Absolutely amazing!
Thanks for listening
To be blown away by vocals in a Carrie underwood song, and it isn't Carrie that blew u away this time?? Pretty rare I'd have to say!! A first for me actually! Wow dude can sing!!!
So as hard as it is to admit on here, almost one month ago I nearly took myself out. If it wasn't for my grandma calling me and telling me she needed help with something I was about to do it. I had started writing my note, gathered everything in my room, and the call came. I said I would finish when I got home. Then I broke down and started crying. I called a special friend who had reached out to me days before when I had a really bad day. Without hesitation she came over, removed the materials I was gonna use, and sat with me for hours. If you're wondering well what about your grandma? I told my grandma it was gonna be a minute. Well she called back shortly after and said she found what she was looking for. My friend said your grandma called at the perfect time and saved you without even knowing it. Needless to say I'm in a better place, still have hard days but my hope is coming back. This song has been a very special song for me
@idoltyler06 hope will always come back around. We have to enjoy the joy while we have the joy. The hard times are going to come around as well too, u just have to know that better days are ahead too.
❤❤❤❤❤
U always worth it, even when it seems like it's all over, jus remember ur worth life an life is lucky to have u my dude. Don't know u but much love my friend
I'm glad you're still here!!
You should tell your grandma❤
It's crazy how this song was sent to me on my verge of giving up. Thanks hey hey. You sent me this for a reason knowing I'm not alone, to leave a light on.
❤❤❤❤
Im a survivor I've tried 2 times it has been a struggle for me but I keep pushing through each day. If I can do it so can you Its not worth taking your own life . Ive been wear you are before. Keep fighting you can get through this. If anyone is reading this ( i may not know you) I'm proud of you for staying your life does matter you may not think that but you matter to me stay one more day
Thank you for this. So many need to hear this. I hope someone else sees this and it changes their mind also.❤
