What have the artists said about the song? Sorority Noise vocalist/guitarist Cam Boucher shared: This song is about having a friend pass away and still keeping them fondly in your mind to the point where you show up to their house forgetting that they’re no longer there. It’s about struggling to keep up with the people you love when you’re away and how to be/how it feels to not be there for them when they need you most.
the bit with the guy with the bag over his head at the airport was the single most powerful thing i've witnessed all year. that is exactly what having a panic attack in public is like but nobody can see it.
I agree. Also probably helps that this song has the same chord progression as "the quiet things no one ever knows" by brand new. Helps to give off that vibe that brand new has/had. Sorority noise put out the album of the year in my opinion.
I don't know anything about music from a technical standpoint, but Quiet Things is my favorite Brand New song and No Halo is one of my current favorites, I'm sure it's no coincidence.
My friend took his life about 3 years ago this time of year. Still wicked tough. I thought I made peace with it until recently. This winter has been a different beast. This song hits a little too close to home. Such a good song, cheers guys
I just realized the lady driving circles in the parking lot is the same lady who killed herself with carbon monoxide. Such a sad video. But such a well delivered message. Well done Sorority Noise, I cannot stop crying
I used to watch and listen to this on repeat when I was going through some serious heartbreak. I thought she was the one and I would never ever recover. I thought she was my soulmate. Someone I had always yearned for. She wasn't. This song helped me to grieve so much. And now I'm fine. Took a while to forget her, but it worked. Gtfo, meet new people, make new friends, ideally change your whole environment lol love you
I just wanna say, years later after my freshman year of highschool... I was really depressed and suicidal. Id have times where i almost died by ending my life and that shit wasn't fun. Sorority noise helped me through it all and id remember playing this song at 5 to 6 am in the morning before my zero hour and itd be dark af outside and just that atmosphere with this song playing was almost haunting, a feeling ill never forget. Thank you Cam and sorority noise, in a way... You guys kinda saved my life
That’s a rough place to be I decided to be sober for 8 months and it’s the hardest things I’ve ever done. That release is a beautiful feeling but take pride in the fact you decided to take that step. If nothing else I believe in you friend. It’s a process you can do it!
@@rogermendez7266 back into rehab to get off the methadone they put me on when I first commented here. I'll go away. I'll leave this city. Fuck it all. I will be healthy and I will rule my life.
Stopped listening to this type of music years ago, but there's something about the combination of the song and imagery that's insanely powerful, and I can't stop watching.
@@GoodfellasX21 yo sometimes you can't jam this hell it's hard for me to listen to this because of my mental state and what I would do to myself you don't have to be so mean just because they stop listening to it
I love how the vocals for this song have both a quieter, more normal speaking track and a harsher, more emotional track. It shows how people dealing with grief can seem fine on the outside, but on the jnside, they're screaming. I just lost my Dad last month and this song is helping me deal with it, knowing I'm not alone in my grief.
I actually make it a point to walk past my old friends' houses that i lost touch with so that maybe one day they'll be sitting on their stoop or coming out the door and they'll notice me walking by and we'll get to talking and become friends again but I'll never directly reach out because who knows if they even want me around anymore, I mean I figure that's why we stopped talking in the first place but who knows
Reach out, if its one thing I learned the last year is everyone gets busy, when your free never lines up and you just end up drifting to people who have the same hours free as you do. Some of the best times to be had can come from catching up with a old freind.
You know... There is nothing to lose if you reach out. If they don't want you it will automatically drift away, but if it's meant to last you might regret not taking that chance. So reach out.
LYRICS: This last week I slept 8 hours total, I barely sleep Maybe that's why I've been weak The same things that plague you still plaguing me God called you to fulfill a vacancy I tried to see why it wasn't me So I didn't show up to your funeral But I showed up to your house And I didn't move a muscle I was quiet as a mouse And I swore I saw you in there But I was looking at myself I'm placing bets against myself And honestly I'm a mess With the car engulfed in flames I am a wreck Things I should have said through call or text Just really been so busy and I regret Cause if there's no rest for the wicked I'm as evil as it gets Thing I should have said So I didn't show up to your funeral But I showed up to your house And I didn't move a muscle I was quiet as a mouse And I swore I saw you in there But I was looking at myself So when you show up to my funeral Will you be wearing white or black And I know the voice is in you It's the energy I lack So if there's a race to heaven I will surely come in last And if there's a race to heaven I will always come in last
I've been struggling with suicide since I was 10 years old, I'm 25 now and it still hasn't left me, I doubt it ever will. I just don't speak about it with my loved ones anymore, I get tired of them worrying. I went down a rabbit hole of old songs from "15 year old me" tonight and I found this one, for the first time. I've never heard of this band either. There was a specific part of this song that made me bust out in tears. I remembered why I stopped listening to this kind of music, but at the same time it feels good to let it out of my system for once. This song is a piece of art and evokes strong emotions.
no one ever talks about how many people die around you in your 20s. Ive lost 3 friends so far. and far more family members. it's a sobering moment when you stop and think about it.
Lance Haggard I’m right there with you man, I’ve lost three friends over the past couple years and currently loosing my grandparents. It hurts beyond belief to think about the potential and life that was lost when someone passes at a young age.
It's 2024. I listened to it during a very difficult period in my life, it helped me stay alive. I am grateful to this band for what they have done in music.
I found this song a few years ago and it would always make me cry every time I listened to it. No real reason other than the general sadness/message of the song. My mom passed away just this last February and now this song makes me cry even more. Cause it pulls out that sadness I have for the loss of her. I find great emotional release with this song, it’s therapeutic. Thank you Sorority Noise for helping me release the emotions I’d otherwise suppress. Music is healing.
this is now the 2nd video of his work that I've really enjoyed, After The Party by The Menzingers is my favorite video that came out this year and now I have a #2 with this one, Kyle has a lot of talent, he knows how to make a music video.
For some reason the first 2 times I saw this video it didn't really hit me, and then the third time I watched it I just started openly weeping in my cubicle at work.
Never saw them, in the bar right now, I listen to this song every once in a while since I had a break down crying to it in the Denver airport on my birthday. I live in jersey, so the alienation was peak
This has to be one of the saddest songs I've ever heard. It depicts the absence of someone and their death so beautifully. I feel like this song is one that will stick with me forever. It makes me think of my family and how short life really is.
Hope that coma didn’t do too much damage to her in the long term, my older brother lost his ability to control his right leg for the most part 5 years ago but he made it and we laugh about it now
I discovered this song right after I learned about my friend Trevor passing. I just saw him last week. I felt like I heard this song for a reason. And this video describes the affect of the situation in such an amazing way. Rest In Peace Trevor
Can I just say that I believe in you, I believe in the youth and the younger generation! I fully believe you guys are going to save the world, heal the planet, and usher in a new age of higher consciousness. I just know it, with every fiber of my being and on a cellular level... I have always known it. I've felt it coming for years. The world is changing, our realities are shifting, our consciousness as a whole is ascending, and I believe I'm going to get to see it in my lifetime. I know I'm also an important part of it, coz we all are. The pain we experience here has a purpose, or at least it used to, but it's no longer going to be necessary in the new reality we're creating together. Reading all of the comments to these newer songs I have been listening to fills me with hope and so much courage, it connects me to all of you. Starseeds, indigo's, whatever you want to call yourself: this is your confirmation, this message is for you. I love you and am grateful that you specifically exist. Your being here, and you reading this, is no coincidence. The world needs you and your specific light. So shine your light and be your most authentic self above all else, you are perfect exactly as you are. Whatever you are striving to be just know that you are already that, the most high. You have an important mission here and the world needs you desperately. So when you inevitably feel so lost, look into your heart and find yourself and know the truth that you are not alone. Remember you chose this, your being here is not an accident. And so it is. ❤️💛💚💙💜 Ps. Never trust the government kiddies lol
@@belafontelife9781 some things needed to be shouted out to the ether. I miss my buddy, sorry if that bothered you. He was a great dude and sorely missed.
my friend died a few days earlier...this song hits like a truck every time i hear it but it reminds me the time we used to share music...i miss him so much and this makes me thing so much of him, even writting this my chest hurts.
As i've watched this music video more and more I think I've been able to pin point what sets it apart from others. 1. The complete lack of the person that committed suicide 2. What I interpret as the contrast between how we act outwardly, inwardly, and how we wish we could react outwardly.
Every single frame of this video mixed with every single note of this song create together something really beautiful and sad at the same time. Love you guys since the day one. Sooner or later I really hope to watch you live here in Ireland
We need to live for the ones that don't live anymore or never had the chance to. Besides that, Thrash is one hell of a director, his videos are always so rich in detail! The feelings of grief, loss, angst, anxiety and mourning the video shows beautifully represent the general feeling of the song.
This song hits hard for me. I've lost so many friends to addiction, and now I'm sobbing in my bedroom alone. The funeral imagery, the deaths, the emotional outbursts, the pain, the religion, this video hits so close to home I can't help but cry.
Best. Video. Ever. Is there a word for "beyond powerful"? Because this is so much more than anything I could have hoped for....completely speechless. Knowing loss, and knowing depression and anxiety, This speaks to me. One of my favorite moments in life was watching this incredible band perform live. They stuck with me. They have the most unbelievably raw performance. Seriously. A whole new meaning to "leaving it all on the stage". Great job guys. Please never stop giving us your heart. We will cherish it forever.
Oh my god..That was just...There aren’t words. Too much emotion shown for words. Too much than you would think could fit in moving pictures, words, and notes of music. I couldn’t look away
Man, the last time I heard this song years ago I generally got a little sad, now listening to it a few years after a close friend passed away I understand why it made me so depressed at the time.
2:32 is my favorite - I don't know why exactly there is so much said with just the idea that that house held some meaning and each one is staring at it picturing all the good and bad that happened there
having been diagnosed with manic depression at 19 Using" was the first song I heard on audiotree and was so thankful for the words spoken before they played it after some recent deaths/suicides amongst my friends at 22 now I think this video moved the sinking in my chest , to a lump in my throat and now tears thanks guys
Theres nothing more emo then, getting better. All the sad songs stop to hit because they just bring you down to that place your working out of. And way later you completley forget about it. Your out living your life, things are going on, and then bam. This song just shows up after 4 years and stops everything for a few minutes, and you cant help but be greatful for what youve been able to actually pull off in this thing we call life. Thats fucking emo.
Such a masterpiece of a video that displays what it's like wishing you were dead and yet having to meet the societal standards of being fine like everyone else seems to be, none of them can see how much you suffer. 0:32 At least that's the feeling I got from this scene where even among his peers in the meeting he feels ostracized or exiled and stands out with the zombified sluggish movements representing some kind of interpretive dance none of them understand. I wish I even had the strength to do something as simple as knock a chair over like that and start making a scene at any one point in my life, but I've always had too much self control and been able to sideline myself through internalizing everything.
You left without a sound. All curled up in your bed. I went to your funeral and nobody played the part. You deserved better. Brother, you deserved better.
I mean, you were a chaos upon this temperate land. Exploding with passion. How it was to find you so passive. Defeated, ultimately. We should have fought more. We should've fought for our lives. I wish you could've heard good words. The ones that took you from this moment to the next. Just enough to keep you from yourself. You could've shined, man! It's these demons that plague us. I'll kill them for us. Let's do this, brother! ❤
@@donknotts85 I was thinking about my dead cousin when I thought to comment here. Not another song of theirs 😅 I was and have been dealing with alcoholism since that time. He overdosed on something (we think). Nobody on my side of the family really knows. They found him dead in his room when they started to smell his corpse. My uncle dropped by one day. Real hard ass dude. Stepped in the house and said something's not right. He checked all the rooms and found him while everyone in the house played stupid. Like they couldn't have known. It's a lot looking back on our families and how they treated his death and funeral. So I connect with the struggles that kill us both. I only wish I could've shared it with him. I've a sister, was raised by women. He was a brother to me. This song just hits that fucking nail, ya'know..
Christian Perez I am a cop in the metro Detroit area and unfortunately I’ve discovered people deceased in that manner more time than I care to remember. Fortunate that I haven’t had to experience it with a family member. I don’t know you or did not know your cousin obviously, but I would think your cousin would want the best for you and for you to stay strong. If you need someone to vent to in order to put the bottle down, let me know and I will send you my contact info.
Also check out the video for Cigarettes & Saints by The Wonder Years. Similar song about a friend dying, and a music video that can help people understand suicide a little better.
I have an interpretation of this that I think fits well: basically, all the little vignettes of the people show what they feel on the inside, but in the video they express it on the outside. This goes for Cam too. He sees the bodies in body bags because his mind is on his dead friends. Interesting concept but I think it works. And the reason why the people don't react like in 0:44 and 1:50 is because these are internal emotions. Only we, the audience, and the character expressing it can see the emotions. Deep shit. And I could be totally wrong but this makes sense to me.
clockWorks10 I have a similar interpretation, but divide the vignettes into 3 categories; how we express inwardly, outwardly, and how we wish we could express outwardly but for whatever reason don't. Most of them can fall in multiple categories.

im not crying you're crying
I'm not crying, you are crying.
Oof. Gut punch. 😮
Both love and hate you for telling me that, before it was a cool song and now it's a really cool song but also very fucking sad
There are days I want to call my mom show her a song I heard or finished a book she recommended me.
the bit with the guy with the bag over his head at the airport was the single most powerful thing i've witnessed all year.
that is exactly what having a panic attack in public is like but nobody can see it.
i agree
Mine aren't like that
I can't hold it in
i love you, wanna talk about it?
it is basma It's the same way except I cry a LOT
thank u :)
it is basma oh I forgot to mention you have a playlist and I love it
This is even better than I remember
It really is a masterpiece of a song, especially with the video
Honestly. I've been feeling the same.
Still one of the best.
Your videos are awesome
*It is by far my favorite punk song*
that last chorus is at the 'Brand New' tier of chilling emo choruses.
Well said
EXACTLY
I agree. Also probably helps that this song has the same chord progression as "the quiet things no one ever knows" by brand new. Helps to give off that vibe that brand new has/had. Sorority noise put out the album of the year in my opinion.
I don't know anything about music from a technical standpoint, but Quiet Things is my favorite Brand New song and No Halo is one of my current favorites, I'm sure it's no coincidence.
AHX this comment aged like 2006 milk
My friend took his life about 3 years ago this time of year. Still wicked tough. I thought I made peace with it until recently. This winter has been a different beast. This song hits a little too close to home. Such a good song, cheers guys
dark days the band is called pup give it a listen.
Hope you're doing well man!
"and if there's no rest for the wicked, then I'm as evil as it gets" is a lyric that has always resonated with me for some reason.
The camera shot at 1:37 is one of the most beautiful pieces of cinematography I've ever seen
did you mean 1:36 ??
well played
this is probably kinda dumb and obvious but if you like that vibe you should watch the virgin suicides or even lost in translation
That scene made me really sad. It communicates loneliness pretty well. Really powerful!
that 2 second scene is the most striking and sad
I just realized the lady driving circles in the parking lot is the same lady who killed herself with carbon monoxide. Such a sad video. But such a well delivered message. Well done Sorority Noise, I cannot stop crying
Project Lemshki and the young lady in the passenger seat of the self driving car is her grand daughter.
I used to watch and listen to this on repeat when I was going through some serious heartbreak. I thought she was the one and I would never ever recover. I thought she was my soulmate. Someone I had always yearned for. She wasn't. This song helped me to grieve so much. And now I'm fine. Took a while to forget her, but it worked.

this video came out the same day i learned a friend of mine passed away. i've listened to it almost non-stop. thank you, sorority noise
I'm in the exact same position as you man, just learned my friend committed suicide and then this came out. Hope you're okay.
Yeah, that was what it was for my friend too. It's a rough time so I appreciate it, man. I hope you're doing as well as you can right now too.
Cloud Wolf this is so beautiful, two complete strangers wishing the best for each other
Best music video I've seen in a long while.
Every single shot in this, every single frame, every single detail, they're all impeccable.
I actually make it a point to walk past my old friends' houses that i lost touch with so that maybe one day they'll be sitting on their stoop or coming out the door and they'll notice me walking by and we'll get to talking and become friends again but I'll never directly reach out because who knows if they even want me around anymore, I mean I figure that's why we stopped talking in the first place but who knows
Reach out, if its one thing I learned the last year is everyone gets busy, when your free never lines up and you just end up drifting to people who have the same hours free as you do. Some of the best times to be had can come from catching up with a old freind.
You know... There is nothing to lose if you reach out. If they don't want you it will automatically drift away, but if it's meant to last you might regret not taking that chance. So reach out.
It cant hurt to try dude. I wish you both the best
LYRICS:
This last week
I slept 8 hours total, I barely sleep
Maybe that's why I've been weak
The same things that plague you still plaguing me
God called you to fulfill a vacancy
I tried to see why it wasn't me
So I didn't show up to your funeral
But I showed up to your house
And I didn't move a muscle
I was quiet as a mouse
And I swore I saw you in there
But I was looking at myself
I'm placing bets against myself
And honestly I'm a mess
With the car engulfed in flames
I am a wreck
Things I should have said through call or text
Just really been so busy and I regret
Cause if there's no rest for the wicked
I'm as evil as it gets
Thing I should have said
So I didn't show up to your funeral
But I showed up to your house
And I didn't move a muscle
I was quiet as a mouse
And I swore I saw you in there
But I was looking at myself
So when you show up to my funeral
Will you be wearing white or black
And I know the voice is in you
It's the energy I lack
So if there's a race to heaven
I will surely come in last
And if there's a race to heaven
I will always come in last
thank you sm
This song says something in a way that no other song has ever been able to communicate.
Had a friend take their life this week. This song has been going through my head ever since I heard the news.
I've been struggling with suicide since I was 10 years old, I'm 25 now and it still hasn't left me, I doubt it ever will. I just don't speak about it with my loved ones anymore, I get tired of them worrying. I went down a rabbit hole of old songs from "15 year old me" tonight and I found this one, for the first time. I've never heard of this band either. There was a specific part of this song that made me bust out in tears. I remembered why I stopped listening to this kind of music, but at the same time it feels good to let it out of my system for once. This song is a piece of art and evokes strong emotions.
which part was it? glad you got to let it out stay strong
no one ever talks about how many people die around you in your 20s. Ive lost 3 friends so far. and far more family members. it's a sobering moment when you stop and think about it.

I lost my cousin. I miss her soooo much
I almost lost my girlfriend a couple times now. I feel you.
I'm 25 and I've been to more funerals of my friends than I have to weddings. 7 funerals 1 wedding.
20s are the worst age, and year apparently

I am crying
I just have something in my eyes...
For some reason the first 2 times I saw this video it didn't really hit me, and then the third time I watched it I just started openly weeping in my cubicle at work.
"Cause if there's no rest for the wicked, I'm as evil as it gets" I love this line
I doubt anyone will read this but I'm at the bar with this in my headphones. Seen them back in 2016, and I've loved them since
I read this, saw them back in 2016 and would do anything to see them back together again
Never saw them, in the bar right now, I listen to this song every once in a while since I had a break down crying to it in the Denver airport on my birthday. I live in jersey, so the alienation was peak
By chance, was it in Seattle with the band Citizen and the opening act was Great Grandpa
In my book you kick ass
This has to be one of the saddest songs I've ever heard. It depicts the absence of someone and their death so beautifully. I feel like this song is one that will stick with me forever. It makes me think of my family and how short life really is.
I'm wishing you lots of love

I don't know what is better, the music video or the song..
Love the song, but it's clearly the video. Compare this to 99% of music videos, very few if any are this powerful.
I love your profile picture
Fabulous Killjoy No, I love you more than you can love his/her picture. Have a good existence.
Nice pfp
Jason Artim.
I will stay alive and fix the things I've broken, for you.
You deserved so much more brother.
I miss you.
Bro, I don’t think he’s browsing RUclips….
@@belafontelife9781 some things needed to be shouted out to the ether. I miss my buddy, sorry if that bothered you. He was a great dude and sorely missed.
@@idufalalot oh don’t be sorry. It was only “clapping at the end of a movie” annoying, perfectly within bounds.
my friend died a few days earlier...this song hits like a truck every time i hear it but it reminds me the time we used to share music...i miss him so much and this makes me thing so much of him, even writting this my chest hurts.
The girl in the mirror at 1:36 was a powerful statement that I missed the first couple times I saw this video
the most powerful song videoclipe of all times
This is 2017's the quiet things that no one ever knows, so good!
3 years and I still cry every time the little beat change at like 2:20 happens
this song and the video perfectly describe what a person with depression or anxiety or other things go through
As i've watched this music video more and more I think I've been able to pin point what sets it apart from others.
1. The complete lack of the person that committed suicide
2. What I interpret as the contrast between how we act outwardly, inwardly, and how we wish we could react outwardly.
I think ill take walk past my buddies old house. miss him
(G)old
Every single frame of this video mixed with every single note of this song create together something really beautiful and sad at the same time.
Love you guys since the day one.
Sooner or later I really hope to watch you live here in Ireland
I haven't stopped watching this for days.
Zach Bee
Me neither
It's been 4 months
We need to live for the ones that don't live anymore or never had the chance to.
Besides that, Thrash is one hell of a director, his videos are always so rich in detail!
The feelings of grief, loss, angst, anxiety and mourning the video shows beautifully represent the general feeling of the song.
This song hits hard for me. I've lost so many friends to addiction, and now I'm sobbing in my bedroom alone. The funeral imagery, the deaths, the emotional outbursts, the pain, the religion, this video hits so close to home I can't help but cry.
haven't seen this in 6 years. first shot and im in tears
this video justifies the power of the song
One of the most powerful small clips I've seen, still love you sorority noise hope you come back for us..
This is fucking beautiful. Greatest band ever + amazing music director = perfectness.
eeeeeehhhh
perfection*
Hum is the greatest band ever imo
Best. Video. Ever. Is there a word for "beyond powerful"? Because this is so much more than anything I could have hoped for....completely speechless. Knowing loss, and knowing depression and anxiety, This speaks to me. One of my favorite moments in life was watching this incredible band perform live. They stuck with me. They have the most unbelievably raw performance. Seriously. A whole new meaning to "leaving it all on the stage". Great job guys. Please never stop giving us your heart. We will cherish it forever.
This is so underrated.
Been listening to this song for years and never gettin tired of it
This music video carries an unbelievable aesthetic.
Oh my god..That was just...There aren’t words. Too much emotion shown for words. Too much than you would think could fit in moving pictures, words, and notes of music. I couldn’t look away
You guys and your music are one of the two reasons I’m not dead yet
thank u jisoo, new song for my playlist
This is one of my favorite music videos ever. I love how dark and sad it is, yet it is still beautiful.
still keep coming back to this song / one of the great videos
I miss you guys
i always come back to this song. i miss them more than anything.
Cam, If you're reading this.... Come back. The scene needs you. I need you.
Benjamin Hazard we all need him
Cam who? I lost a Cam as well...... this gave me chills to read this comment at 2:43 am.
@@bluur2 Cameron Boucher, the lead singer of Sorority Noise
@@kylerrandall2968 oh wow you were reaching out to him to come back to music haha. I was under the impression he was no longer with us
@@bluur2 yeah, the dude saved my life. like acutally. I want him to come back but i respect him wanting to take a break
Man, the last time I heard this song years ago I generally got a little sad, now listening to it a few years after a close friend passed away I understand why it made me so depressed at the time.
I fucking love you guys more and more with each album.
Red Foreman
I love them more and more every second of each song
2:32 is my favorite - I don't know why exactly
there is so much said with just the idea that that house held some meaning and each one is staring at it picturing all the good and bad that happened there
i remember exactly where i was in life when this song dropped, and ill never forget it
Me, too
"And if there's a race to heaven, I will always come in last"
Just thinking about that line. Damn.
Fast paced and super relevant to the life we share
I always come back to this video from time to time
Such a powerful piece of art, props to the band and Kyle Thrash. Miss u sorority noise
having been diagnosed with manic depression at 19 Using" was the first song I heard on audiotree and was so thankful for the words spoken before they played it
after some recent deaths/suicides amongst my friends at 22 now
I think this video moved the sinking in my chest , to a lump in my throat and now tears
thanks guys
Wow the emotion in this song is so palpable. Nearly brought me to tears 🥺. I like it so much.
just popped up on spotify, the happiest little accident in my life, love you guys
This is one of my favorite new songs. I love the vocals, lyrics, And the title of the album.
i keep rewatching this for inspiration for my own music video and every time i watch it the last chorus gives me goosebumps
The song and the video STILL resonates. Amazing.
Theres nothing more emo then, getting better. All the sad songs stop to hit because they just bring you down to that place your working out of. And way later you completley forget about it. Your out living your life, things are going on, and then bam. This song just shows up after 4 years and stops everything for a few minutes, and you cant help but be greatful for what youve been able to actually pull off in this thing we call life. Thats fucking emo.
*_and if there's a race to heaven, I will always come in last_*
This song gives me a strange sense of comfort and familiarity, yet a looming sense of dread.
Gotta watch it a second time. Run it back that shit was good. Gives my bones the chills everytime
Whenever I need to cry but can’t this video gets it all out of me
2:32 that shot gets me all the time
Such a masterpiece of a video that displays what it's like wishing you were dead and yet having to meet the societal standards of being fine like everyone else seems to be, none of them can see how much you suffer. 0:32 At least that's the feeling I got from this scene where even among his peers in the meeting he feels ostracized or exiled and stands out with the zombified sluggish movements representing some kind of interpretive dance none of them understand. I wish I even had the strength to do something as simple as knock a chair over like that and start making a scene at any one point in my life, but I've always had too much self control and been able to sideline myself through internalizing everything.
After 4 years I still get goosebumps when I listen to this song
I find this a happy song, striking a light on mental illness. Which will enable discussion about silly taboo's
i come back to this song all the time and honestly it is definitely one of my favorites of all time
"If there's no rest for the wicked, I'm as evil as they get."
Holy shit.
Honestly couldn't have made a better music video....This was fantastic!! I had chills the whole time.
The feels In this. Man this video and song are perfect.
You left without a sound. All curled up in your bed. I went to your funeral and nobody played the part. You deserved better. Brother, you deserved better.
I mean, you were a chaos upon this temperate land. Exploding with passion. How it was to find you so passive. Defeated, ultimately. We should have fought more. We should've fought for our lives. I wish you could've heard good words. The ones that took you from this moment to the next. Just enough to keep you from yourself. You could've shined, man! It's these demons that plague us. I'll kill them for us. Let's do this, brother! ❤
no idea who this is about, but peace be with them and with you 💚
I know this sounds ignorant, but are these lyrics from another song of theirs? I enjoyed reading this.
@@donknotts85 I was thinking about my dead cousin when I thought to comment here. Not another song of theirs 😅
I was and have been dealing with alcoholism since that time. He overdosed on something (we think). Nobody on my side of the family really knows. They found him dead in his room when they started to smell his corpse. My uncle dropped by one day. Real hard ass dude. Stepped in the house and said something's not right. He checked all the rooms and found him while everyone in the house played stupid. Like they couldn't have known. It's a lot looking back on our families and how they treated his death and funeral. So I connect with the struggles that kill us both. I only wish I could've shared it with him. I've a sister, was raised by women. He was a brother to me. This song just hits that fucking nail, ya'know..
Christian Perez I am a cop in the metro Detroit area and unfortunately I’ve discovered people deceased in that manner more time than I care to remember. Fortunate that I haven’t had to experience it with a family member. I don’t know you or did not know your cousin obviously, but I would think your cousin would want the best for you and for you to stay strong. If you need someone to vent to in order to put the bottle down, let me know and I will send you my contact info.
how did this not get to the top of mainstream charts??????
This 3 minute video was a way more accurate and appropriate image of suicide than 13 Reasons Why.
Honestly though and it's so sad that it is
Also check out the video for Cigarettes & Saints by The Wonder Years. Similar song about a friend dying, and a music video that can help people understand suicide a little better.
+Brendan Whipple omg yes the lyrics to cigarettes and Saints portrays such a beautiful image at the same time :)) love the wonder years 💛
Not to be entirely critical, I do like this song but wasn't blink 182 doing this 20 years ago?
pinoy boy Agreed.
This really might be the best music video I've ever seen.
Wow! Just found this through a comment on Menzingers after the party video. Serious chills. Beautiful song and video.
Solid song to come from! They're 2 songs I have in a playlist. Very tonally similar man. Good choice
I have an interpretation of this that I think fits well: basically, all the little vignettes of the people show what they feel on the inside, but in the video they express it on the outside. This goes for Cam too. He sees the bodies in body bags because his mind is on his dead friends. Interesting concept but I think it works. And the reason why the people don't react like in 0:44 and 1:50 is because these are internal emotions. Only we, the audience, and the character expressing it can see the emotions. Deep shit. And I could be totally wrong but this makes sense to me.
clockWorks10 I have a similar interpretation, but divide the vignettes into 3 categories; how we express inwardly, outwardly, and how we wish we could express outwardly but for whatever reason don't. Most of them can fall in multiple categories.
close
I think it also has a lot to do with how people who are suicidal are screaming for help but noone pays attention to them
