They played this when they played at the Diamond Ballroom just this past summer. It was SO unexpected to hear them sing it live... it's just not very new anymore. This is one of my two favorite. The other one being Ugly Side. This band kept me alive in a time I felt so alone, felt like I had nothing. They made me feel like I wasn't the only one and their music and words became the mental support I needed. When the intro started playing at the concert, I instantly started crying. It was amazing. A memory I will cherish forever.
This song speaks volumes to me. As someone who is constantly anxiety ridden, I constantly struggle with rushing thoughts and fears. Certain people in my life give me that solace of a quiet mind. Thank you Justin, your music has inspired me for years.
just really got into their non-singles. thought I related to their singles. this stuff really speaks volumes to me as well. anxiety sucks. thx for ur post. 'it's just me' really opened my eyes.
this song never fails at calming me down. I only listen to it every once in a while and I needed it this time. it reminds me of my girlfriend, she gives me a quiet mind :-)
Just glad i have someone to give me a quiet mind. Blue October, and their music, really mean a lot to me, and have made me feel, even in the darkest of times, that i'm not alone. Thank you, Justin, for the music that kept me from the end, and paved the road to feeling better.
I love this song, it's absolutely beautiful. My twin sister passed away not too long ago, I had this song played at her funeral. We both loved Blue October
God bless your soul sister in Christ seek Jesus and Jesus alone, he is love and always with you! A grip on my heart told me to reply to your message! The only way home is Christ ! Every time I hear this song the words are spot on! Jesus giv s me a quiet mind and I love him until the end of time and beyond !!! I have peace godly peace! Priceless JESUS THE LOVER OF OUR SOULS PRAYING FOR YOU LOVE IN CHRIST JESUS AMEN
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I don't know how else to say this but this music taps into a certain part of my mind. It's probably hard for anyone to get it unless they have been there and his music days it all. Thank you for your deep and amazing songs.
Being an introverted, perceptive person who over-thinks everything, it's always hard to find someone who can calm your mind and just fill it with themselves. He calms my nerves and I love him
Blue october has saved me from myself so many times i have lost count...there was a year of my life i was really struggling to get my bipolar disorder under control...it got really ugly...and blue october was my light in a chasm of unrelenting darkness...forever my inspiration...blue October
A guy I recently started seeing sent me this- I haven't really listened to Blue October since 2008.. I know... how dare I... Anyways, He has a tendency to over think like I do and he has a lot of responsibility riding on his shoulders and he is consistently in survival mode. He says when he lays next to me- he sleeps better. He is able to just.. Be. Knowing that I can do this for someone is an amazing feeling... usually people do this for me and I can't ever explain it.. its nice that I have this to draw from... and now I miss him so much. -sighs-
+Rikki Hoover I too have a love like this - We are going on our 10 year Anniversary on New Years Day and I would literally die without him. He has saved me so many times. I am the luckiest woman in the world to have him in my life.
I was diagnosed with scitzophrenia recently and this song really hits home. Sometimes it is so hard to sleep or just remain calm in such a dillusional world. Blue October really knows how to sort out some thoughts.
Such a wonderful band!! I like how they are honest about bipolar disorder and other mental disorders. It ruins lives and relationships I know I have BD. Its so hard to live everyday with it. Our minds are our own personal prisons. It sucks but the one thing that has always helped was music. And music that I can relate is even greater in the fight against myself basicly. Blue October is AWESOME!!! :D
ive never had another band speak 2 me the way that they do and im 42yo.. luv nirvana. pearl jam.. but these guyz hav a crazy insight like i have never experienced b4
Being a a chronic schizophrenic myself, this is kind've what it's like. Song like this create serenity in your head So Justin is a great musician in his own way
When bipolar people are actively manic they can have a/v hallucinations. The mix of schizophrenia and bipolar is schizoaffective disorder. Point is that the mental, internal struggle is the issue, not necessarily the label. Excellent song. Thanks for posting.
I love this song, it's actually about a mental disorder... Bipolar to be exact, all he's asking for.. is for his mind to give him a break.... Like alot of mental diseases... rather bipolar, or whichever... Blue October brings awareness to suicide and to let people know there not alone in this sad pathetic cruel world!!!! Love Em' !!!!
my family history sufferes with a hell of a lot of mental disorders, as the only one who doesnt have one, i didnt really understand, and wanted them to snap out of it, but by listening to a lot of blue october song, the songs taught me how to understand. x x x x x x x x
I guess it would really fit with any mind disorder if you think about it, a quiet mind is a quiet mind no matter how you look at it... It's hard to have one... Wish i could accomplish it, if only for a day!!!
Possibly back then, he is sober now but I've always related this song to the few people that have stuck with me threw some fuckups and have always gave me a quiet mind :)
I met you all I'm Louisville ky at mercury ballroom, I caught your towel, me and this girl was struggling for it, but I won, but kind hearted as I am, I went up front and had them cut it in half, so she would have a part of that night, Anyways I love you and your group, so inspiring to me, when I play your songs. People thats around me says that's so depressing, but I've been where u was, it's lifting to me, so thx for your stories, just to know their is so many going through, from what you came out of, ty b.o. come back to ky.
@greenbird283 instead of writing them down from what u hear u should look up the lyrics then all of them are right and it's way faster i didnt know this song so i didnt notice the wrong ones still a good video :))
im 203 and i have thought about have a quite mind i just can take it anymore this world is cruel (not sure i did it right but i see a comment like this on every song of blue October)
Baby, I love you too much to explain to you. You are the one that keeps me together even though most of the time I do not tell you. You give me a quiet mind when I need it most, and that is why we will be together forever.
@XxXAdversaryXxX Do you have any advice for someone who thinks that they might have bipolar disorder? Like how to tell people and get it checked it out? I want help but I'm not really sure how to get it from anyone.
I do occasionally have a typo I miss, yet grammar is one of my pet peeves. Sadly, I even get irritated seeing internet lingo such as r for are, or u for you. I appreciate the compliment since I usually receive hate on most of my comments.
@DearFynn welll, if theres anything you see thats not correct, feel free to let me know. i didnt copy paste from any lyrics site, i just wrote down what i heard. maybe i misheard it. sorry if any of it is wrong. I'm not an expert.
A song i hope i will never, ever feel connected to. A musical masterpiece, however, and I love istening to it; and to you who relate to the song, however, I hope you will attain a quiet mind, and be at peace. Many fucks from Norway, 'cause I give a fuck.
Uh, do you even know what schizophrenia is? I have schizophrenia and this isn't targeted to a specific illness. Justin may have had one in mind, but it wasn't necessarily for that. It is about someone who eases someone's mind that is clustered with complications. Maybe not even that. It is up to interpretation.
go talk to your dr. explaining your symptoms and they will refer you to appropriate drs....worry about telling people later...first get checked out to be sure what your medical/mental health issue is.....

this song never fails at calming me down. I only listen to it every once in a while and I needed it this time. it reminds me of my girlfriend, she gives me a quiet mind :-)
i can't seem to find that person to give me a quiet mind, still love this song though.
Just glad i have someone to give me a quiet mind. Blue October, and their music, really mean a lot to me, and have made me feel, even in the darkest of times, that i'm not alone. Thank you, Justin, for the music that kept me from the end, and paved the road to feeling better.
A Quiet Mind still gives me the chills to this day... one of my all time BO songs. Justin is a poet.
Some of us will never have a quiet mind..love Justin for writing beautiful songs that people like myself can relate to.
Justin always manages to touch my heart with deep lyrics... tears now and then come in between the moments I go back in time.
I love this song, it's absolutely beautiful. My twin sister passed away not too long ago, I had this song played at her funeral. We both loved Blue October

I like so much this song!! It reminds me the importance to have a quiet mind and that I'm surrounded of amazing people when i just want to disappear.
This song got me through high school. An introvert like me....
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! I don't know how else to say this but this music taps into a certain part of my mind. It's probably hard for anyone to get it unless they have been there and his music days it all. Thank you for your deep and amazing songs.
Gosh, I haven't heard this song in ages. I think I just fell in love all over again
Being an introverted, perceptive person who over-thinks everything, it's always hard to find someone who can calm your mind and just fill it with themselves. He calms my nerves and I love him
Blue october has saved me from myself so many times i have lost count...there was a year of my life i was really struggling to get my bipolar disorder under control...it got really ugly...and blue october was my light in a chasm of unrelenting darkness...forever my inspiration...blue October
I just now found their music and I really believe it saved my life!!!

kick ass song right there
"Can't even handle my own"
I love this song, it's actually about a mental disorder... Bipolar to be exact, all he's asking for.. is for his mind to give him a break....

Give yourself a quiet mind, love is an illusionary state of human emotion.
woooow! I'm sorry you feel that way
woooow! I'm sorry you feel that way
woooow! I'm sorry you feel that way
+joey lee so so true, well expressed .
I know what you mean i have two anxiety disorders and depression- I listen to this song on my really bad days to quiet my mind
Perfect
I'm a number one fan of this group. Blue October, say it!..you give me a quiet mind and I love you.. please visit Philippines... :-)
I guess it would really fit with any mind disorder if you think about it, a quiet mind is a quiet mind no matter how you look at it... It's hard to have one... Wish i could accomplish it, if only for a day!!!
This is just me probably overthinking it, but I get a feeling that this song could be about substance abuse.
Possibly back then, he is sober now but I've always related this song to the few people that have stuck with me threw some fuckups and have always gave me a quiet mind :)
Listened to this song in English class the other day was about the only student who knew of Blue October was kinda shocked, score one for good music

People thats around me says that's so depressing, but I've been where u was, it's lifting to me, so thx for your stories, just to know their is so many going through, from what you came out of, ty b.o. come back to ky.
You give me a quiet mind and I Love you ,😊😂😇
i
I love when people say crap like this, yet don't have the balls to actually respond to the person it's meant for.
I can't remember having a quiet mind.
This song...My God, this song. I needed this.
Nicely done. :3
Your not alone.
@yeposa any song by Blue October is a good one!!!! Once you hear them ur hooked!!!
@greenbird283 instead of writing them down from what u hear u should look up the lyrics then all of them are right and it's way faster i didnt know this song so i didnt notice the wrong ones still a good video :))
I agree, (IdentityDisease) it's to ease the pain someone has...
the lyrics do match, if you don't think so you need a q-tip and a nice glass of shut up juice
@yeposa
a couple favorites are Come Closer and Black Orchid
both hit me deep
i can relate to being bipolar. in my fam its hereditary. it can be diffucult and very stressful at times.
im 203 and i have thought about have a quite mind i just can take it anymore this world is cruel (not sure i did it right but i see a comment like this on every song of blue October)
If we tell our bodies what to do everyday why cant i tell my mind to STFU and it do it. it never stops!
@jack5wastedlife i completely agree with you about hallucinations, i am bipolar.
Baby, I love you too much to explain to you. You are the one that keeps me together even though most of the time I do not tell you. You give me a quiet mind when I need it most, and that is why we will be together forever.
trololol That is epic trolling right there
And i, I love you
Until the end
Until the end
I love you Muffin
anxiety 100 %
Yeah I'll just watch your upload of this song for the right lyrics. Oh, wait...
are you sure he says "Inappropriate will" and not " In appropriate will"?
they are two very different meanings.....
okay!!
This song is true for me cause my brain never shuts up
@XxXAdversaryXxX Do you have any advice for someone who thinks that they might have bipolar disorder? Like how to tell people and get it checked it out?
I want help but I'm not really sure how to get it from anyone.
I do occasionally have a typo I miss, yet grammar is one of my pet peeves. Sadly, I even get irritated seeing internet lingo such as r for are, or u for you. I appreciate the compliment since I usually receive hate on most of my comments.
As opposed to creating psychotic thoughts.
@DearFynn welll, if theres anything you see thats not correct, feel free to let me know. i didnt copy paste from any lyrics site, i just wrote down what i heard. maybe i misheard it. sorry if any of it is wrong. I'm not an expert.
im having a hard time choosing wich blue october song to choose next
A song i hope i will never, ever feel connected to. A musical masterpiece, however, and I love istening to it; and to you who relate to the song, however, I hope you will attain a quiet mind, and be at peace. Many fucks from Norway, 'cause I give a fuck.
❤
hes so beautiful im gay for him
@LONGhairRULEZ love you too muffin!
Uh, do you even know what schizophrenia is? I have schizophrenia and this isn't targeted to a specific illness. Justin may have had one in mind, but it wasn't necessarily for that. It is about someone who eases someone's mind that is clustered with complications. Maybe not even that. It is up to interpretation.
it means 10HourVideoFreak
@greenbird283 I didnt see/ hear any wrong lyrics.
go talk to your dr. explaining your symptoms and they will refer you to appropriate drs....worry about telling people later...first get checked out to be sure what your medical/mental health issue is.....
don't listen to the feed back..it wont give you a quiet mind..lmao
