I haven't understood this song before, it was just a nice tune with sad lyrics for my like any other song. 14 days ago my father passed away in hospital way to early in the age of 60. His brain was damaged to much after a heavy heart attack, so we let the doc turn down the machines and let him go in dignity and peace. The first time I listened to this song again it touched me deep in my heart and made my cry. It's crazy how music transports feelings. This song lets me connect to Andy and feel his grief, but also gives me hope to free myself from the deep sorrow (portayed by the man in the Video) and feel happy again sometimes with all the beautiful memories of my dad. Just wanted to share these thoughts and feelings with you. peace
Stay strong to watch and be apart of the passing of a father is a mind altering experience. Remember they don't want you lost in life or in their death.
This song is so good and has so much meaning. It helped me get through the passing of my grandfather. He was such a great man would give the shirt off his back to help someone. I still cry sometimes when I hear this song. Long live Caliban 🤘🤘🤘 REST IN PEACE GRANDPA!🤘
I always liked this song. I recently went out west to see my Grandma before she passed. I came back to NYC and was standing on the subway platform on my way to work early in the a.m and this came over my earbuds. I couldnt hold back the tears- they just pushed through and i was trying to choke them back. I didnt realise how much this song hits the mark. Very powerful. To everyone who has lost someone, you arent alone and youll get through this. Im moved by how many people on this thread has a similar experience.
Vorletztes Wochenende ist mein Vater verstorben. Vergangenes Wochenende, war ich auf dem Free For All Festival, welches schon fest eingeplant, wo auch Caliban spielte. Ich hatte diesen einen Wunsch, bei Memorial für meinen Dad zu surfen. Hatte mit dem Andy beim Festival drüber gesprochen. Dieser Moment war einfach höchst emotional und sehr bedeutend für mich. Danke, an Andy, den Rest der Band und der gesamten Crowd für diesen unvergesslichem Moment. ❤
Kann ich sehr gut verstehen! Mein Dad ist am 29.7 vor neun Jahren gestorben und es tut immer noch weh. Aber der Sound hilft! Keep going! Stay strong! 🤙🏻🤘🏻 4:24
Calliban have saved me from suicide, thier songs have given me strength. If you come to York please let me know. You don't even know how you have saved my life,without you I would be no more.
My dad passed away one day before Christmas (on 23th dec)...this song is at the moment one of the songs helping me through. Hope all of you with same sad News or such loss doing well, and despite such tragic events i wish a Happy new year to everyone Reading this
Lost my dad nearly 2 years ago, finally paid attention this song today when I was working out and it hit me in the guts. Someone once said to me you should grieve for 2 years but anything longer is a waste. I was afraid to let go before because I didn’t want to forget him, but now maybe it’s finally the right time. Thank you for this song ♥️
This is a memorial, to honor the long gone This is a burial, my heaven has gone wrong Those times we had, so long ago. Like yesterday I miss 'em so much I can't let go! My heart is full of hate, It's bleeding love Father I have to say goodbye, to keep myself alive I can still see you, you're fading away. But I can still feel you though you're drifting away from me. This is a memorial, to honor the long gone This is a burial, my heaven has gone wrong Are you still here? Still in this place? What's left behind, where is God's grace? You broke my faith My heart is full of hate. It's bleeding love. Father I have to say goodbye to keep my self alive I can still see you, you're fading away ? but I can still feel you, though you're drifting away from me. My heart is aching, that's all I know Hope is fading I'll let you go This is a memorial, this is a burial
I love how everyone is claiming they are trying to be black metal because of the make up. If you had done a little research before those claims you would have realized the make up is their album artwork.

Some people just don't have a fking clue about music.
Exactly one year ago, this music was my only buddy while I was when when my gramps died. I was hundreds of miles away when he went and there was nothing I could do until then.
Caliban schaffen den Spagat von Härte,Emotion,Authenzität und sogar poppiger Melodien. Das macht die Band neben Heaven Shall Burn zu eine der wichtigsten Formationen im bereich deutscher moderner Metal(-core).
God, everyday I look on Wikipedia expecting a new album to release......not because I dont like their last album, but all the albums they have don't fill up my whole day without repeats yet :)
this is not satanic i thought that at first but it's not he is talking about someone he loves leaving it is a heart reaching song for me the most bc i lost my dad on march 2012 his birth day and i feel depressed when i think about how he is gone and im stuck here but i have hope i will see him again that's why this song speaks to me bc i have to let go knowing that i will see him again and i won't be upset when i know he is there waiting for me on the other side
well.. not satanic necessarily but lose faith in god which he loved..but highly apply to our lives... after all, God is love they say and if your love gets betrayed.. you started to feel drifting away from god or away from love.. im not even christian lol... I apply this song to my own life experiences of love and despair rather than to religion.. since im not christian.. hard for me to feel that way altho i know the context...
Aung Chozan I think this song is about losing beloved ones, and not religious in any way. He isn't losing faith in god but in his father. I don't think it is satanic at all.
This song makes me think so much about my grandpa. While he’s still alive, he has dementia that is getting progressively worse and worse. He’s 84 and it’s inevitable one day he won’t remember who anyone in my family is. Chorus really hits hard
The song is about jewish ritual sex abuse the global 'elitists' practice - this abuse as a young child makes the formerly innocent child into an evil adult who hates humanity... that's why its a memorial for their former selves and for God... God and their former self is 'fading away/drifting away'.
i like this. not just another 0--000-000-000--00000--00-0-000-0000-00000 band. the cleans work and the verses are plenty complex and work really well. definitely buying this album
Conheço Caliban desde antes do lançamento de Say Hello To Tragedy, e as músicas, principalmente desse desse álbum e do IAN smp me traz lembranças da época que eu estudava a tarde. Esse clipe já vai fazer, agora 21/12, 8 anos... 😨
I Feel you man. Happened to me too, He passed away one day before Christmas (on 23th dec)... Hope all of you with same sad News or such loss doing well, and despite this tragic Events i Wish a Happy new year to everyone Reading this
+Avriell самый тру металкор у Caliban был в 2001, офигенные рифы в "love taken away" и "erase the enemy", которые в 2007 "позаимствовали" группы типа оматоре и т.д.
Was at the same line up last night in London, epic, truly epic show. Sadly Caliban had a problem and couldn't play which was a shame. But really worth going to!! Enjoy every second of it!
Dalibor Ilic we saw Caliban Any Given Day Dream On, Dreamer Bury Tomorrow at their show in Kofmehl, Solothurn. It was amazing show! I started loving them there.
Dass es mir ähnlich dabei geht wenn ich an meine letzte Beziehung denk... Was is daran so lustig? Hast du dir den Text überhaupt mal angehört? Der Song drückt Gefühle aus die ich teilen kann...
again and again caliban is a band really fascinating myself! every album sounds a way innovative and though you always know that you are listening to caliban. always a very good band for me, and very respectable musicians.. awesome! please don't split up and keep such passionate music!
if you dont like the music, why are u still here? stop hating and wasting your life watching something u dont like. makes no damn sense. Anyways, Caliban is still one of the greatest Metalcore bands ever, and I Am Nemesis is shaping up nicely.

Sorry for your loss x
Sorry homie...
Stay strong to watch and be apart of the passing of a father is a mind altering experience. Remember they don't want you lost in life or in their death.
Stay strong dude. Look after yourself and the fam. \,,/
Hard, yes. My father too 4 months ago.. now I understand more those lyrics than ever .. keep going dude
This track goes out to all the people who left me too early ...i hope we meet us sometime somewhere again.
Just happened to me, lost my Dad
Still here in 2021 and have loved this song since 'I Am Nemesis' was released ❤️
2022! hell yeah!
This is one of the most amazing songs of all time. It always evokes the same emotion
2022 too hell yeah!!!!

This song always gives me goosebumps...Definitely one of my favs!
One of a few Metal band that actually can deliver on live performances as well as in pre-recorded songs! Respects from Sweden!
I always liked this song. I recently went out west to see my Grandma before she passed.

Calliban have saved me from suicide, thier songs have given me strength.
If you come to York please let me know.
You don't even know how you have saved my life,without you I would be no more.
These guys need to come to America
10 years later and this song still slaps🔥

Caliban took it too a whole new level on I Am Nemesis, easily 1 of the best albums I've heard all year.
03:14 best part of this awesome song
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a memorial, to honor the long gone
This is a burial, my heaven has gone wrong
Those times we had, so long ago. Like yesterday I miss 'em so much
I can't let go!
My heart is full of hate, It's bleeding love
Father I have to say goodbye, to keep myself alive
I can still see you, you're fading away.
But I can still feel you though you're drifting away from me.
This is a memorial, to honor the long gone
This is a burial, my heaven has gone wrong
Are you still here? Still in this place?
What's left behind, where is God's grace?
You broke my faith
My heart is full of hate. It's bleeding love.
Father I have to say goodbye to keep my self alive
I can still see you, you're fading away ? but
I can still feel you, though you're drifting away from me.
My heart is aching, that's all I know
Hope is fading I'll let you go
This is a memorial, this is a burial
Anyone else have the problem of listening to this song over and over again after you play it? I can't get enough of this song.
I was saving this for the days after my stepdad passed... here I am. I love this band so much.
Caliban is my favorite Metalcore band BY FAR!
Still here in end of 2023z love it
Caliban never disappoints.
Einer der besten songs von caliban, finde ich
Ganz deiner meinung... diese high screams sind unschlagbar :D
I love how everyone is claiming they are trying to be black metal because of the make up. If you had done a little research before those claims you would have realized the make up is their album artwork.
Some people just don't have a fking clue about music.
Imagine claiming the use of makeup for one genre xDD metal elitists really are a thing xD
Exactly one year ago, this music was my only buddy while I was when when my gramps died. I was hundreds of miles away when he went and there was nothing I could do until then.
Outstanding song, still new to these guys but they have not let me down at all so far.
this song is satanic man
luka jaxua and...?
luka jaxua its not satanic, there is a difference between being satanic and a critic to religion
They will never let you down
agusstrato06 I see what you did there.
9 years ago my dad passed away. But this amazing song keeps me going! 😢 R.I.P. Dad 07/29/2015
My favorite song by far right now
Mine too...incredible song!
Saw them yesterday with As I lay dying, Trivium and Upon a burning body. The best concert I've ever been to. Just incredible!
This band is so underrated worldwide. This is special shit, fucking kickass, WORLD, OPEN YOUR EYES AND EARS FOR THIS
Been years since I have heard this song. Took me far too long to find it on youtube. I love this song so much.
I love the chorus part! You're drifting away. \m/

Think this has been on repeat for about 4 hours now.
this is not satanic i thought that at first but it's not he is talking about someone he loves leaving it is a heart reaching song for me the most bc i lost my dad on march 2012 his birth day and i feel depressed when i think about how he is gone and im stuck here but i have hope i will see him again that's why this song speaks to me bc i have to let go knowing that i will see him again and i won't be upset when i know he is there waiting for me on the other side

:,( ahh
I'm impressed with this album!
This is actually one of the most consistently good metalcore bands...PERIOD!
лучшая песня и клип!!!
Hab sie am Greenfield 2011 in Interlaken gesehen. Caliban hat überzeugt und sie tun es immer noch! Freue mich auf das Album :)
Was ein geiler Song :D
The song is about jewish ritual sex abuse the global 'elitists' practice - this abuse as a young child makes the formerly innocent child into an evil adult who hates humanity... that's why its a memorial for their former selves and for God... God and their former self is 'fading away/drifting away'.
Jared Thompson Meth. Not even once.
Anyone whom has suffered loss understands these lyrics. Caliban has always been a 💎
Looking forward to Impericon Festival 2019!

when my dad died this song made more sense
my 1st caliban song
i think he ate too much book
maybe he got an constipation based on too much paper.....
By his eyes...he is high enough...so right...
Denis Schmidt has probably the best clean vocals in the scene! Keep it up guys👍
They are jumping in every video. Why?
they jump for energy ... I guess.
it's just so they feel comfortable while performing
Илья Гришенков Jumpcore
Илья Гришенков because jumping on the stage is fucking awesome! Give it a try!
MagicSchwammerlProductions Headbanging?

I Am Nemesis 3.2.2012 = best Album of the Year!!!

I feel like I've heard this band a billion times, even though I've never heard OF them.
None of these people should be allowed to eat chocolate without napkins.
"My heart is sinking, that's all I know. Hope is fading, I let you go...This is a MEMORIAL! This is a BURIAL!" \M/
