This song always gives me a release. I cared for my Father while Cancer ate him up..most painful thing I’ve ever done to be there for him. Doctors visits, late night calls, trying to encourage and give hope. He took it like a man and even apologized constantly for himself. He was my best friend and a dandy. I miss him terribly. He passed in April of 2018.. my body literally gave out on me within that next year. I was bound up and tense from grief. Life is good, but it never hoes away. Idk if these boys know how much some of us relate, but I love this song and appreciate it. Peace
This is one of the most emotional songs I've ever heard. Impossible not to listen and sing to it without tearing up. I don't think people who know this masterpiece's meaning would understand why it's so tear-jerking. Fabulous tribute to one of the most talented musicians that ever existed.
2 weeks ago I lost one of my closest friends from middle school in a car accident. What's worse is that he died the week before graduating high school. At the graduation ceremony, his diploma was given to his parents in honor of him and he received not one, but TWO standing ovations. This song reminds me of him every time I hear it.
I know the feeling. A buddy of mine died last October and he was supposed to graduate in june with me. It was hard for me to be there without him. I miss you micheal
I lost my friend to suicide and this song reminds me of her. its so sad that people get bullied for being to smart or having some sort of disability. Its not worth bullying people and then see them on the news. I loved my friend very much.
ahk_Clan We know it’s not about bullying. This person was just saying how they lost their friend. The song is about loss and everyone experiences it at one point or another.
I know this was originally written by Syn for his late grandfather and was later rededicated to The Rev, but it's a beautiful song full of emotion, heart and soul! Will love this song foREVer!
I don't know about any of you but being an Avenged Sevenfold fan is a lifestyle. "Fans and friends are considered family. Being an A7X fan isn't always easy because it means you're not only gonna laugh with us, but cry with us and defend us on occasion. If you're part of the family it's for life." As quoted by Zacky Vengeance. Honestly, he's right. I laugh at their funny moments but i cried so hard when they cried. The loss of Jimmy was a big deal and this song will always make me think of him. I might not have known him but it felt like he was family. RIP Jimmy
I get the feeling that this song is about someone's closest and seemingly romanticaly involved friend passing away. Those last few verses are so powerful; you can just feel the heartbreak and pain in his voice
My grandmother died two weeks ago by pancreas cancer, I was sad but I don't want to, because her pain was gone, because she tell us she had a very rough life, and she needed to take a rest. I know that she was very christian, but she had something good, that she never judges anyone, no matter what sex, race, sexual preference or likes and taste had a person, she loved everyone no matter the religion she followed. I wish that she was here to give her the longest hug possible, but if she stay here she gonna be sufering a horrible pain, it's sad to me but, death forms part of life. R.I.P. Grandma, I hope that you're making everyones day more colorful from heaven.
How could anyone dislike this song? It's so heartfelt and emotional. It nearly always brings a tear to my eye when I hear it. Boo. Boooooo all people who dislike this video. Boooo.
I gave you the dislike in the hope that it shows you why people do it. Sarcasm and irony. No one truly hates the song, just the tears slapped the dislike button.
"The REV isn't gone. He just ran into the forest and is never coming back. But when he does come back, he will become the knife masta." - M Shadows Rest in peace Jimmy. You're in our hearts foREVer.
actually the rev said that a long time ago he is like one day I'm gonna run away into the forest and never come back and when I do I'm gonna be the knife master
This song, I haven't heard in years. It was a friend very dear to me who asked me to listen to it, long ago. 'Said it was her favorite one. She was born with a heart condition, and around four years ago, it was what took her from us. And now, hearing it again, good God I can't help but wonder if she was trying to tell me something. Left behind, I have never stopped missing her. And I am so proud to have known her. Rest in peace seems like such a flimsy farewell, does it not?
,,,whenever,i miss my mom, I just play this song n reminiscing the time when am with her,I really miss her,though she pass 9 years ago.but the pain of losing her is still tearing me up inside,,,
I've always loved Avenged Sevenfold and of course, this song. I became even more obsessed with them since I saw them in concert a few days ago. I'm completely obsessed and will only listen to them. I never really realized how deep this song was, but it's always been a favorite and I'm truly lucky to hear them perform this live.
A song that reminds me that even though we as people think heaven is so far away, those in heaven are right here in our hearts, including my greatest love, my savior. Thank you for giving me the gift of life, the strength to overcome all this horror I have seen. I will love you forever.
Rip Rev, makes me so sad to know you didn't get to see how this record turned out. Avenged Sevenfold will never be the same, love ya man, just did a cover with my friend of Nightmare at the studio today, was a lot of fun, thanks for bringing what you did to the world of metal, fly high
" I love u, u were ready the pain is strong and urges rise" . "But i'll see u when it lets me, ur pain is gone ur hands untied". This 2 lines were breaking me apart :((((
It honestly warms my heart to see the comment sections in songs like these. Not like the usual videos where people are insulting and getting insulted left and right. People actually tell their stories and what's better, is people listen.
I love this song so much I want to dedicate this song to my uncle who passed away this year R.I.P uncle Paul you are truly miss gone but not forgotten :(
Ugh what can I say about avenged....well my middle brother got the wings on his shoulder and I don't blame him cuz it's an amazing band and I will never forget....rip to the rev.....😣😭😭😭😭
Lost a close family friend a week ago from covid. This song is helping me through this loss. I miss you man, you're in a better place, but it still hurts to not have you around.
WHAT A LEGENDARY SONG! Love it, it's good everything you want in a song! Good voice, good lyrics, tearful, memorable, moving and very good to listen too in any mood your in. You can't deny this is GREAT Nearly 15,000 people are AMAZING but 180 people are strange. Not a HUGE rock song because it's not a huge screaming song but it is great to listen too.
I don’t know why but this song makes me think about my Grandfather who died of Alzheimer’s last year. It’s a hell of a thing to be relieved he isn’t suffering anymore but to be so sad he’s gone. Wishing I said more to him while he was still here. Wish I could let him know how much I loved him and miss him. He would’ve hated this style music but the sentiments are what I feel all the same. I’ll miss him for the rest of my life. Always with me by my side that light he left behind.
Agato Wesker - The Black Fox There are special people in our lives who never leave us .... even after they are gone REV was one of these special people . He is gone but he is never forgotten RIP REV

this is not about bully the the Rev he died and his band made it for him he was yung with them when they were kids
ahk_Clan We know it’s not about bullying. This person was just saying how they lost their friend. The song is about loss and everyone experiences it at one point or another.
Fuck those bullies
='(
Suicide is for weak people
"I'll be on my way to live eternally" best line of the song
raymond roman "Your pain is gone, your hands untied." Never fails to get me. I was an addict and I know it could just have easily been me.
yes🙌
I tried to sing this but, I ended up having my voice crack and have tears go down my face. Rest In Peace Jimmy
In Fiction Jimmy wrote "Promise me you'll never be afriad"
In So Far Away Matt wrote "Sleep tight I'm not afriad"
:'(
didnt SYN wrote the song
***** Oh.
Syn wrote the song for his late grandfather but once Jimmy passed away the band dedicated it to The REV so yes Strelok Syn did write the song.
amber kluttz Oh wait, i got the wrong song, sorry! Ignore my previous statement. I thought you were talking about Fiction
The band wrote this song with jimmy and then when he passed away they dedicated it to him.
I know this was originally written by Syn for his late grandfather and was later rededicated to The Rev, but it's a beautiful song full of emotion, heart and soul! Will love this song foREVer!

It honestly warms my heart to see the comment sections in songs like these. Not like the usual videos where people are insulting and getting insulted left and right. People actually tell their stories and what's better, is people listen.
I don't mind the intro, but considering the nature of So Far Away, it probably would have been best to leave the intro out of it.
hello
Mr Spriggs ikr. The intro kinda ruined the beginning of the song for me
do yall even know what the song is about?
Didn't someone die, and this song is for them? not sure, but I think it is
raven it's about his best friend die and it's like he cant move on..sort off
I love this song so much I want to dedicate this song to my uncle who passed away this year R.I.P uncle Paul you are truly miss gone but not forgotten :(

WHAT A LEGENDARY SONG! Love it, it's good everything you want in a song! Good voice, good lyrics, tearful, memorable, moving and very good to listen too in any mood your in. You can't deny this is GREAT Nearly 15,000 people are AMAZING but 180 people are strange. Not a HUGE rock song because it's not a huge screaming song but it is great to listen too.

I luv the band but this songs special for 2 reasons: 1) Syn wrote it. 2) The band dedicated it to The Rev. FoREVer!!!
#SynysterGates wrote this song. They later dedicated it to #TheREV!!
Samira Cruciani Please not the hashtags. Don’t bring them here from modern generations, we try our best to keep them away.
I don’t know why but this song makes me think about my Grandfather who died of Alzheimer’s last year. It’s a hell of a thing to be relieved he isn’t suffering anymore but to be so sad he’s gone. Wishing I said more to him while he was still here. Wish I could let him know how much I loved him and miss him. He would’ve hated this style music but the sentiments are what I feel all the same. I’ll miss him for the rest of my life. Always with me by my side that light he left behind.
If this song means something to you, you don't need the lyrics
