From the ashes we will rise! This album is so underrated. The gang shout vocals, change in vocal styles and effects, and Buddy not being afraid to lay it all on the table lyric wise... SO GOOD!
Senses fail along with bayside are two bands that I feel don't get the recognition they deserve. This is such an amazing album. For those putting it down, give it some time to grow on you.
Why does this song have so many dislikes?! It's ridiculous, this song is so full of hope and the video is sick as well! Listening to this at 4 in the morning and I have such goosebumps!
Many thanks, I'm glad you can relate to it. It was a full on round the clock effort to get it done in a month. I was hired by VAGRANT to "do what I do", and took an approach to the song that tried to show pain, isolation, and ultimately release. Animating music videos is largely a labor of love (limited $), so it's nice when people get something from it. thanks again
Thank you soon much if this is true my favorite bands are Taking back Sunday Brand new And the goat senses fail I JUST WANT TO FEEL ALIVE... it's OK to fell lost... It's not It's just means you're alive
I love this video. It's original in its genre and I find it somewhat connected to the music video to "Rum is for drinking not for burning" - graphically that is, which I liked a lot as well.
6* Ha I'm the first to post... Man this band came a long way..props. Well nice lable to be with..SENSES FAIL.. well GOD bless them n may they keep makein music from the heart..n never change there tune..peace,GOD Bless.
story was that they had shot a video for this in new york back in sept 2010 i beleive but buddy had said that video didnt come out as expected so this was released instead. I hope we can get to see that other version one day
Love the song. Great intensity - the layering in the video works hugely well - especially like the last sequence with the gears in the brain. Very cool.
Some backstory on this video: I was asked to create something different than the earlier SF videos. There was limited time + resources, and SF couldn't be in it because they were touring / unavailable. Live action video of the band performing THE FIRE hadn't officially been shot / released when this was made.
I think non of us, including the band, had any idea this songs meaning would reach farther than the video. Its easy to say in heinsight, that it should have been more. But it is what it is.
I understand where you are coming from. From the looks of things a lot of the comments here seem to be inconsiderate and I would think hurtful so I just want to say just ignore them and keep doing what you're doing because you've got real talent.
I really liked this video!! It gets your attention, and I think it was a good choice going for something more edgy and creative. Props to the band and the director! I noticed that a lot of fans are pretty upset that the video didn't turn out as they expected, but if you are truly a fan, you have to respect the band's decision on a video they feel best represents their music. If you don't like it, at least respect all of the people that put their hard work into it.
The song is good, but the video is great! Crafted and honed to push your senses to another level. Well done and look forward to seeing more videos that make you think for a change.
Wow this is completely different from let it enfold you. but this shows how they have matured in writing music. I don't know if i like it as much as let it enfold you.. but this is pretty impressing
interesting video, i think i like it! looks like it would have taken a lot of work so nice effort! i love the colours and the paper planes! wicked song.
thanks a bunch. yeah, when the video first came out it was out a couple weeks before I realized it. When I started scrolling through the comments I definitely felt like the kid on the playground getting hammered on. I hope some of the pissed off fans put some of that energy toward something creative. The video was featured on Communication Arts home page where it got good reception, but a lot of the SF fans didn't connect with it. thx again
how is it possible that it took this long to release this video while it seems like it has been made in the early 90s? But the song is great, like always with senses fail.
I'm really starting to think that this entire song is about their label. And how their taking away everything, and how Senses Fail is starting to be scared about all of it. Because just from listening to Senses Fail for the past 5 years there is NO way ANY of them would release something like this.
This song had a DIFFERENT video being filmed...I was invited with a bunch of people to mouth the words to the song, in NYC way back. Had a lot of fun in front of green screen, met the band and drank orange juice. Too bad they never aired that footage I would love to see that :(
@xTriggernometry I can relate to that so much, that's why i love his old songs, i relate to them perfectly. Unfortunatly i'm feeling even worse over the years. Still love the band.
I have no idea (why first video was scrapped), and I wasn't even aware of the scrapped idea (till later). I found out about that after my video was released, from the annoyed fans that were hoping / expecting to be in the video. I DO know that there are loads of factors involved in these things, so it's not that unusual for a label to change directions on a video... that said, I wish someone had told me about it earlier.
IM FINDING NEW WAYS TO MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE PUTTING MY DREAMS ONTO PAPER THAT FOLD INTO PLANES THEN I LET THEM GO BECAUSE WHEN IN ROME I SET FIRE TO WHAT I LOVE THE MOST
Is it just me or does this song just sound band in general like recording wise? Cause I have the cd and I ended up downloading it and it still sounds really static y.
@crabwalkers i just said falling apart because 2 of the most important members of the band (heath and garret) left. i still love the band and their music, but it just doesnt seem the same without those 2 members.
@xXkanila19Xx ya, Garrett was awesome (so was Dave, Mike, Heath). Buddy and Dan are amazing artists but they don't have a strong enough foundation to make it big. w/e Senses Fail is still my favorite band
i love my senses fail and always will the are a jersey band and jersey is my home so they are more than my favorite i just hate this video its cut and past also whats going on with the clips from the dvd? that has nothing to do with the fire at all it was a separate thing but whatever senses fail i love you and keep the music flowing
@TheHeeser He's amazing live. Quit judging bands off of youtube. I seen buddy live multiple times when let it enfold you came out, & seen him live when the fire came out. He sounds fucking awesome.
From the ashes we will rise! This album is so underrated. The gang shout vocals, change in vocal styles and effects, and Buddy not being afraid to lay it all on the table lyric wise... SO GOOD!
11 years later and this song still has such great replay value.
Senses fail along with bayside are two bands that I feel don't get the recognition they deserve. This is such an amazing album. For those putting it down, give it some time to grow on you.
11 years late but bayside is fucking awesome. Don't call me peanut 👌
My favorite song on the album by far.
easily the best song from the fire album, the chorus is amazing
I really like Coward a lot too.
Let it enfold you changed my life, and yeah this is alot different but its still amazing. Senses Fail is just simply insane
I SET FIRE TO WHAT I LOVE THE MOST
I JUST WANT TO FEEL ALIVE! I JUST WANT TO FEEL ALIVE!
Why does this song have so many dislikes?! It's ridiculous, this song is so full of hope and the video is sick as well! Listening to this at 4 in the morning and I have such goosebumps!
Seriously another amazing album... Senses Fail ya'll keep blowing my mind!!!

I LOVE THIS SONG...A THOUSAND TIMES!
I love this video. It's original in its genre and I find it somewhat connected to the music video to "Rum is for drinking not for burning" - graphically that is, which I liked a lot as well.
Only 40,000 views? This is one of the better Senses Fail songs, maybe even their best. Sad to see it gets no love on youtube.
I love this album
6*

This song means so much to me
Getting it's ok to feel lost in ink on Friday!

Dude that is awesome, what an honor and good job :)
I think non of us, including the band, had any idea this songs meaning would reach farther than the video. Its easy to say in heinsight, that it should have been more. But it is what it is.
That’s awesome! Hope you’re doing well!
Great video (and song of course). Glad to see something very creative, visual and imaginative.
beautiful work. thanks.
This song is amazing!!!
this video does not do this song any justice. there was so much potential for an amazing video.
idk what you guys are talking about i love the video!!!
high quality video ! the artistic work is amazing !
one of my fav songs i cant wait to see them in may :)

great artistic work on the video ! bravo
I saw Tim Miller do a guitar workshop today nov 05/12 in Victoria BC. Talent & knowledge. Very impressed.
The song is good, but the video is great! Crafted and honed to push your senses to another level. Well done and look forward to seeing more videos that make you think for a change.
Wow this is completely different from let it enfold you. but this shows how they have matured in writing music. I don't know if i like it as much as let it enfold you.. but this is pretty impressing
I am soooo dissapointed. I love this song, and waited so long for the video, and this is it?...

interesting video, i think i like it! looks like it would have taken a lot of work so nice effort! i love the colours and the paper planes! wicked song.
I personally think the video is awesome just like the song!
thanks a bunch. yeah, when the video first came out it was out a couple weeks before I realized it. When I started scrolling through the comments I definitely felt like the kid on the playground getting hammered on. I hope some of the pissed off fans put some of that energy toward something creative.

thx again
I dig the video!
the music video has the same effects with the song "parallels" of as i lay dying but both songs are good!

Selphyne Brannon yee it turned u on, huh
how is it possible that it took this long to release this video while it seems like it has been made in the early 90s?
But the song is great, like always with senses fail.
I JUST WANT TO FEEL ALIVE!!!
...ITS OK TO FEEL LOST
This song hits deep!! I love it, who's still listening to this in 2016?

+MrMastrmonstr This guy
this guy
Fredy Rivera this guy

love the style. reminds me of Alkaline trio's "mercy me" vid. also a great track
fire is life!!!!!
Only heard Life Is Not A Waiting Room. Looking forward to delve into SF between 2008-2020 (their post hardcore phase).
I know it's the title track of the album but I think this is one of their most underrated songs
I'm really starting to think that this entire song is about their label. And how their taking away everything, and how Senses Fail is starting to be scared about all of it. Because just from listening to Senses Fail for the past 5 years there is NO way ANY of them would release something like this.

I'm Mexican and I like this band alot!!!!!
I dig it :)
If youu don't like the video...no one cares. Save your negativity for something else. Senses Fail is an amazing band and this video is prettyy cool.
This song is waaay too special and meaningful to have an empty video like this.
at7F - MW2 Montage

What's with all the dislikes, ITS SENSES FAIL FOR GODS SAKE!

It's ok to feel lost it just means your alive....anthem of 2020
I second this
@xTriggernometry I can relate to that so much, that's why i love his old songs, i relate to them perfectly. Unfortunatly i'm feeling even worse over the years. Still love the band.
Let's redo this video and then come back..
I'm really digg'n the Blues Clues run at about 2:00 ...... >.>
50 People are disappointed because Senses Fail didn't release the original video with the fans in it.
@janier234 seriously theyre the 2 biggest underrated bands around. they deserve more recognition then what they get.
“To Be Almost Saved is to Be Totally Lost”
Acts 26:19-32
@richborge I went to the filming for this video, why did they scrap the original idea.?
I have no idea (why first video was scrapped), and I wasn't even aware of the scrapped idea (till later). I found out about that after my video was released, from the annoyed fans that were hoping / expecting to be in the video. I DO know that there are loads of factors involved in these things, so it's not that unusual for a label to change directions on a video... that said, I wish someone had told me about it earlier.
IM FINDING NEW WAYS TO MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE
PUTTING MY DREAMS ONTO PAPER
THAT FOLD INTO PLANES
THEN I LET THEM GO
BECAUSE WHEN IN ROME
I SET FIRE TO WHAT I LOVE THE MOST
i think this song can go without a music vid XD
Is it just me or does this song just sound band in general like recording wise? Cause I have the cd and I ended up downloading it and it still sounds really static y.

@TakeOnNE1 No, I was talking about the video.
I thought this was a fan made video at first, but then i was like lol wtf
I saw this and was like.."where the hell is this?" but i hear its okay to feel lost:\
@retXedpunk i was thinking the exact same thing for some reason
@crabwalkers i just said falling apart because 2 of the most important members of the band (heath and garret) left. i still love the band and their music, but it just doesnt seem the same without those 2 members.
@UphamE
they did, i was one of them, and they didn't use any of the footage
@salikali2 yeah i know senses fails is one of my favorite bands
they need to scream more like they used to in old albums..
the 54 people who dislike this, burned.
@xXkanila19Xx ya, Garrett was awesome (so was Dave, Mike, Heath). Buddy and Dan are amazing artists but they don't have a strong enough foundation to make it big. w/e Senses Fail is still my favorite band

@TheHeeser He's amazing live. Quit judging bands off of youtube. I seen buddy live multiple times when let it enfold you came out, & seen him live when the fire came out. He sounds fucking awesome.
