Heat wave From the stuff that im currently going trough i can relate strongly to this lyrics, but ofcourse i could also misread them for what they are supposed to be at the same time. "Do you see the world in different colors? Do you see the world in black and gray? Alone in your thoughts" The world as i see it quite often feels colorless, i have a hard time finding joy in the outside world. When the world feels and look that way i tend to wander into my own head and stay there, looking out trough bus/train windows and just see how cold and dark it really is "Wait for me now? Take off this crown" I see it as something that i put on somewhere to protect me but suddenly it got stuck on me, i wish i could just make it stop and dissappear, but i really hope that the right ones can wait for me to eventually come trough this mental shit. "The promise of safe return undelivered The ocean is wider than I first guessed When roads disappeared, I followed the rivers But somehow got in over my head So deep I felt taken" It feels like everyone is telling me how great could be if i just gave it a chance, but as i try to get there i can only see obstacles and even the smaller ones are bigger and alot scarier than i want them to be. When shit went down i tried to create my own paths but it just lead me deeper into the shit im currently feeling, which is completely fucked. "A lost dream of what could have been A house on fire, a tangled web The key turns to find the locks have changed In time to hear the back door slam A sound that to this day I can't forget The colors drained to black and gray Oh..." Someone broke my heart nearly 9 months ago, i still chase that dream even though i know its not real and it can never be real. The house and the fire is me and how it feels inside, something is hurting me constantly. The tangled web is holding me back on the outside and stopping me. I know everything about this person but if i were to speak to her, it wouldnt be the same because the one person that i loved and trusted disappeared. Last but not least, the sound of her voice when she said the words she said and how my world lost all its color and put me into this mental state where i look at every single day as pointless and colorless. This is just how i see the song, you dont have to agree. Sorry for typos and whatever but its 8 in the morning and i havent slept.
Peterimx13 Wait what did i do? I just read the lyrics in a way that it would benefit my mindstate at the time, but you are welcome if you found them helpful
I know that there are different interpretations of this song, but I have always used it to cope with my husband's deployments. To me, it is about a service member who is asking for his loved one to wait for him while he's gone.
Beautiful song , It’s about a person coming home from a journey only to find out the one they loved had cheated on then and betrayed them “ to break all these vows don’t you know “ it’s such a sad but amazing song and can be about general heartbreak as well which I relate to a ton , one of my favs songs ever
What I love most about this song is the subtle Irish accent he has, especially in the lyrics "When roads disappeared, I followed the rivers" He's got the best voice in music.
And that is so true, there is a lot of it. There are so many bloody forms of this because there are so many people who want to stand up and fight for something, or express themselves in a way that can benefit people on a larger scale. Who cares if there's a lot of it, it just means there is more people willing to fight for something, and this world needs as many of those people as it can get.
I'd more than likely cry everyday for as long as I live..This band has altered my life in so many ways. Which is why I love them. ♥ and their music is absolutely astounding and beautiful.
,,A lost dream what I could have been A house on fire a tangeled web The key turns to find the locks have changed Until you hear the backdoor slam A sound that to this day I can't forget'' ~~~~Best part~~~~~~
this is one of those songs that will never get old o wait thats almost how every rise aginst song gose they never can get over played cuz there so amazing this song ill listen to for ever RISE AGAINST
Rising Against is alternative rock I believe, and Nirvana IS punk, but it's mostly Grunge Punk and certainly not the only contenders in that category. To actually comment on this song: I think this has become my new favorite.
Normal colorvision: Green, redish green, brown, greenish red, red. Colorbline: Green, some mix of red and green?, dark red?, slightly less dark red? red? ... The first one was green right?
People sit back and say Rise Against is not a punk rock band. Yes they are. Punk is not a sound, its a mindset, an attitude, a love for humanity, seeing past the lies of the world and opening up. Rise Against is definitely a punk rock band. Yes their sound may be more the likes of Alternative rock which is fine. The power is in the message and this band has to be one of the best bands around anymore. They write real music that addresses real issues and that's what makes them great. :)
Found out about these from hearing their song Satelitte (which is one of my favorite songs from them) on my local radio station. I am mainly a heavy metal guy but thise group puts out some good tunes... And i grew up on Metallica, Slayer, and Pantera.....
Another point I would like to make is that people tend to say their sell-outs. How? The entire Endgame album deals with issues they would definitely not be talking about if they sold out. Do think a major mainstream band is going to be writing songs that are against homophobia? Do you think a mainstream band is going to be talking about any of the issues that are adressed in this album? Rise Against is a real band that actually stands for something. They are one of the best bands around.
Punk was a counterculture moviment, not only the music, there were a whole ideology behind it, and that made punk what it was, just like hippe back in the 60', not the screams, or the random words. It was an ideal, to break from a system that only used them. See Sex Pistol for an example, they didn't scream randomly, and they are one of the most punk bands i know.
Well sure, they don't use a lot of characteristics that have defined punk up until this point. But, they do have a point to what they sing about if you look deeper into their songs. They call for social change more effectively and creatively than a ton of punk bands. They use a different approach that's attacking problems from a different angle.
PUNK: noun 1. any prepared substance, usually in stick form, that will smolder and can be used to light fireworks, fuses, etc. 2. dry, decayed wood that can be used as tinder. 3. conk3 . 4. a spongy substance derived from fungi; amadou; touchwood.
I'm reading comments and it seems the argument is whether they are punk or alternative. Here is why this argument is stupid: Alternative rock is a genre used to describe non-mainstream bands (of all types, including Punk) who receive mainstream attention, and in fact was actually stemmed from Punk Rock roots when Punk started to become popular as a way to categorize that type of music. Punk Rock is a style and certain mindset basically against conformity. So both sides are right, RA is both.
Why are some of you so obsessed with defining the genre of music that any band is playing? If you like the music and you find their lyrics awesome, why is it even important? The genres mix so much nowadays and you can find traces of so many in just one song... Besides, the point of music is to express your thoughts, feelings...yourself even in a way that you, as an artist, like. Try to just enjoy it and don't listen to it just because you think a certain genre is cool.
I'm not a punk elitist or anything, nor do i claim to know the entire history of punk, but it was around well before Nirvana :P bands like Black Flag, Bad Religion, The Ramones, The Dead Kennedys, Descendants, Sex Pistols..idk I'm not an expert, I just named a few off the top of my head. XD And I'm not trying to start a huge debate here, just pointing that out :P have a nice day
I'm listening to this song right now as my girlfriend is in the hospital losing her mind. I've never been more scared than I am right now, I'm scared that she's mentally gone and we're never gonna see her again.
I swear Tim writes lyrics like a freaking poet
Genius
wait for me and whereabouts unknown are 2 of the most surprisingly underrated songs by rise against.
One of my favorite songs...brilliant...Every bar I go to with a jukebox I play this... Love Rise Against.
One of the best songs made about depression, all you can do is hope that the right one(s) wait for you
hows it about depression? usually im good at seeing this stuff but for some reason i dont grasp that from this song lol
Heat wave From the stuff that im currently going trough i can relate strongly to this lyrics, but ofcourse i could also misread them for what they are supposed to be at the same time.
"Do you see the world in different colors?
Do you see the world in black and gray?
Alone in your thoughts"
The world as i see it quite often feels colorless, i have a hard time finding joy in the outside world. When the world feels and look that way i tend to wander into my own head and stay there, looking out trough bus/train windows and just see how cold and dark it really is
"Wait for me now?
Take off this crown"
I see it as something that i put on somewhere to protect me but suddenly it got stuck on me, i wish i could just make it stop and dissappear, but i really hope that the right ones can wait for me to eventually come trough this mental shit.
"The promise of safe return undelivered
The ocean is wider than I first guessed
When roads disappeared, I followed the rivers
But somehow got in over my head
So deep I felt taken"
It feels like everyone is telling me how great could be if i just gave it a chance, but as i try to get there i can only see obstacles and even the smaller ones are bigger and alot scarier than i want them to be.
When shit went down i tried to create my own paths but it just lead me deeper into the shit im currently feeling, which is completely fucked.
"A lost dream of what could have been
A house on fire, a tangled web
The key turns to find the locks have changed
In time to hear the back door slam
A sound that to this day I can't forget
The colors drained to black and gray
Oh..."
Someone broke my heart nearly 9 months ago, i still chase that dream even though i know its not real and it can never be real. The house and the fire is me and how it feels inside, something is hurting me constantly.
The tangled web is holding me back on the outside and stopping me.
I know everything about this person but if i were to speak to her, it wouldnt be the same because the one person that i loved and trusted disappeared.
Last but not least, the sound of her voice when she said the words she said and how my world lost all its color and put me into this mental state where i look at every single day as pointless and colorless.
This is just how i see the song, you dont have to agree. Sorry for typos and whatever but its 8 in the morning and i havent slept.
***** Yep. Everyone can relate to a song in their own way. That's the wonderfully beautiful thing about music :)
***** Thanks a lot dude :)
Peterimx13 Wait what did i do? I just read the lyrics in a way that it would benefit my mindstate at the time, but you are welcome if you found them helpful
Finding this song by googling the lyrics is hard as fuck when all you have stuck in your head is the "do you see the world in different colors" part.
When I heard this song I almost cried it’s that powerful I suffer from depression and anxiety related to being on the spectrum of Asperger’s syndrome
You are not alone brother. If you only knew how alike we are.
This song was why Rise Against was my favorite band in college
I love those first 45 seconds so much.. and then it even gets better
One of the most beautiful rock songs ever made
I know that there are different interpretations of this song, but I have always used it to cope with my husband's deployments. To me, it is about a service member who is asking for his loved one to wait for him while he's gone.
There aren't enough words to describe how amazing Rise Against are!!
Beautiful song , It’s about a person coming home from a journey only to find out the one they loved had cheated on then and betrayed them “ to break all these vows don’t you know “ it’s such a sad but amazing song and can be about general heartbreak as well which I relate to a ton , one of my favs songs ever
The genre is called "Awesome"
What I love most about this song is the subtle Irish accent he has, especially in the lyrics
"When roads disappeared, I followed the rivers"
He's got the best voice in music.
He was born in Indiana, and formed the band in Chicago. Definitely a midwestern accent.
And that is so true, there is a lot of it. There are so many bloody forms of this because there are so many people who want to stand up and fight for something, or express themselves in a way that can benefit people on a larger scale. Who cares if there's a lot of it, it just means there is more people willing to fight for something, and this world needs as many of those people as it can get.
I saw this band live a couple weeks ago and all i can really say is....
.
.
.
WOW.
I use to hear this band on the radio all the time and never knew there name now I do and they're my favorite band now!
Eines der besten Songs aller Zeiten.
That's really great that you take a part of a sentece and judge it not reading the whole or intreperting in any way.
Best band no matter what critics say! May Rise Against bring us the best for the next 25 years! What I wouldn't give to see them in concert!
I have heard this song today and couldn't stop listening since. Great song, great band!
I'd more than likely cry everyday for as long as I live..This band has altered my life in so many ways. Which is why I love them. ♥ and their music is absolutely astounding and beautiful.
One of my favorite songs ever! ♡
,,A lost dream what I could have been
A house on fire a tangeled web
The key turns to find the locks have changed
Until you hear the backdoor slam
A sound that to this day I can't forget''
~~~~Best part~~~~~~
Best part of the song.

Best Rise Against song
And this kids is why you should have the voices IN your head.
Best Lyrics Ever :)
Rising Against is alternative rock I believe, and Nirvana IS punk, but it's mostly Grunge Punk and certainly not the only contenders in that category.
To actually comment on this song: I think this has become my new favorite.
Rise Against, best punk band.
one of my favourites song ever !!!!!
They're all over the radio man..
the greatest way to listen to this is when you're driving in the country side its like a movie almost (its how u found this song tbh thank u radios)
depression_session I have never heard any rise Against songs on the radio, outside of Pandora, of course.
Chasemdown016 Variety Savior is one of the most played alternative rock songs of all time
More than that, everybody in Rise Against are GODS.
I actually do see the world in different colors. I'm colorblind.
so...it's kind of just two colors in different shades?
Zuka Zamamee no. It's colors perceived wrong. So dark red looks brown and yellow looks like light green
ChaseUbito they're kinda the same xD you're fine imagine seeing green instead of red
+ChaseUbito Cut the red wire! Which ones the red one!?
Normal colorvision: Green, redish green, brown, greenish red, red.
Colorbline: Green, some mix of red and green?, dark red?, slightly less dark red? red? ... The first one was green right?
I can't wait to get the album
Rise Against is truly an AMAZING BAND
Avengers: Endgame fits this entire masterful album
Fitting with the album title and titular song.
Me after hearing Rise Against for the first time: EARGASM!! :D
Me several years later, when I still listen to Rise Against: EARGASM!! :D
Saw them both live when they performed together...greatest concert of life lol
A beautiful song.... It's my favourite !
I saw them in concert... They were AWESOME!
People sit back and say Rise Against is not a punk rock band. Yes they are. Punk is not a sound, its a mindset, an attitude, a love for humanity, seeing past the lies of the world and opening up.

A piece of art
Honey, wait for me... 2020 It’s the worst year ever... but still listening :/
Found out about these from hearing their song Satelitte (which is one of my favorite songs from them) on my local radio station. I am mainly a heavy metal guy but thise group puts out some good tunes... And i grew up on Metallica, Slayer, and Pantera.....
o yea , another hit !!!!
I truly believe, music has the power to change the world
the quality is heaven *-*
The number of people at the bottom of the comments that reply and argue with each other without actually replying is amazing.
ok, atleast we can agree that its awesome
Damn this shit lit af
THANK YOU!
I wouldn't cry. I would rise up and fight. Like they would want us to do.
I lov this song
The top comment should be about the music so I'll give it a try. I love this song.
Another point I would like to make is that people tend to say their sell-outs. How? The entire Endgame album deals with issues they would definitely not be talking about if they sold out. Do think a major mainstream band is going to be writing songs that are against homophobia? Do you think a mainstream band is going to be talking about any of the issues that are adressed in this album? Rise Against is a real band that actually stands for something. They are one of the best bands around.
I think I would cry if this Rise against ever broke up
Punk was a counterculture moviment, not only the music, there were a whole ideology behind it, and that made punk what it was, just like hippe back in the 60', not the screams, or the random words. It was an ideal, to break from a system that only used them.
See Sex Pistol for an example, they didn't scream randomly, and they are one of the most punk bands i know.
that was deep bro
20 hours? i would cry for 20 years
so awesome
AmZING!
Does anyone else think this track woulda suited better as an acoustic?
MC R-Techz they should make an accoustic album. they are so great at it.
agreed man
MC R-Techz why not both?>
Man do I have new for you
Now there is. Its incredible! : P
it´s too amazing I love it!!!
thanks so much
this really reminds me of burnout paradise.... AWESOME

Oh yeah!!!
song is sooooo sick
@IamAmazinghehe There is no word to tell you on how much I agree with that.
amazing song :)

WAIT FOR ME NOW!!!
This song comes to mind when I'm doing running.
I'd cry 20 lifetimes.
It took me way too long to realize that you're one person. Oh... my... GOSH. That was epic. I'm gonna do that on a video sometime, maybe!
guys, there a punk band, its there style of music and how it sounds
WAIT FOR ME!!!
i was at san diego viejas arena when i first saw them they were fucking amazing :D
Alright that's it... I'm coming over

So, remind me again, why is this band so freaking amazing?
youtube, never fails to crack me up
Rise Against is Alternative metal/Melodic punk. The same music genre as Green Day.
uhm, guys... Nirvana is technically classified as grunge music. anyways, this is an awesome song ^.^
i hopes he's waiting and not forgetting
Super rola!! Ahuevo!!!!
Esta canción se la dedicaré a las personas que creen en mi cuando me haga soldado.
