this hits different when you feel like you’re life is falling apart but also coming together in a way that is new & so much better than before, even if you have no idea how everything will look like. new beginnings & endings. you are allowed to let go.
Kind of like a puzzle, really. You start with all these broken pieces lying around, and only a picture of what you want at the end. You have to wait until you find the right pieces to continue, because trying to force things only leads to a mess. But if you keep going, day by day, you'll find that it all comes together quite brilliantly.
That's so crazy. Been listening to this song here and there for 2 or 3 years. I've been listening to it a lot lately. My life was in absolute turmoil with poverty, death, and everything in between. I just got a nice sum of Money and can fix my house and life and I'm still scared but trying to be hopeful. The pieces are coming together but I'm wary. Thanks for the comment I'm looking at this song a Lil differently now.
RKS is probably my favorite band of all time. Great style, great instrumentation, amazing heart-felt lyrics, amazing vocals from lead and all the backing. Can't get enough. I just wish they would release a new album already. I've been waiting years.
@@lorenaaurora The guy in the song is trying to be all buddy buddy with the devil and the devil is telling him to fuck off basically. Like you got yourself in here and I'm not your friend
This is such a dark yet liberating song about just giving up and allowing yourself to spiral towards death. That may sound depressing in theory, but as someone who has struggled with suicidal feelings for most of my life, I can tell you that accepting death as THE inevitable ending to yourself and everyone else is one of the most comforting things one can do. The monster in the closet is no longer scary once you get to know him and get used to him. Soldiers in war must eventually learn to take the lives of others, and eventually it becomes just another part of their routine. To embrace death, not in fear or resentment, nor happiness, but as something you don't concern yourself with and yet accept will one day get you, is a beautiful thing for the tortured soul. Accepting death better motivates you to accept life as well, because few things in life are more worrying than death; if you don't fear death, then doing all the things you were too afraid to do before in life no longer seem so grandiose and impossible. Live each day like the last day of school. Embrace death, and live life.
Your death is with you at all times, beside you, behind you, ahead, always waiting for its day. To me this song seems to be about drugs though and communities/relationship being destroyed.
It's about having friends who give up on the friendship. It's very tongue-in-cheek about it for the most part: "Cause aint shit free but falling out, that shit's easy, lemme show you how." There's also a bit of the "The devil you know is better than the devil you don't" notion too, reflecting that often enough staying in a toxic friendship is easier than moving on, and that trying to save someone when they don't want to help themselves is sure to bring you misery. "Anyway, you say you're too busy saving everybody else to save yourself, and you don't want no help. Oh well." Ultimately it seems to be about Wanting to save someone, and then chastising yourself for giving up even though there was nothing you could do while also, perhaps, leading by example by exiting the relationship while trying not to feel too shitty about it. So yeah, it's complex, but it's not as deep and esoteric as you make it out to be.
@@richardsimpson5938 that a fair take but I really see the original comments side A few years ago I was really depressed to the point where I decided I’d end it and be done, but I quickly realised that I was gonna die anyway, so I just let go. Something about accepting death but letting it come at its own pace allowed me to be actually happy in a way I’d never thought possible, something I’m still living with today I think it’s because once I accepted my death I had nothing left to fear, I’m allowed to be happy because I’ve no reason to put up with anything else
My friend recommended me this last month, he's now gone into universal freefall.. Edit: my original comment was a more personal tribute, but i read a read a few of the negative comments and began to feel guilty so i edited the comment to make it more generic. Upon reflection, i wish i'd have just left it how it was. It's beautiful to see the amount of love and support that can be held in a comment section on youtube. To the few who decided to leave negative comments, please remember there are other human beings at the other side of your computer screen.
“Keep about your wits. Know yourself and who you came in with.” is getting tattooed on my body in ten days. This song will forever live in a very special part of my heart.
I find it so pretty when coming back to older songs like this and seeing all the comments from so many different years apart. Its beautiful to think about so many different people listening to this in different periods of their life and how it mightve impacted them.
Literally I'd settle for a straight up loop at this point. I've looked for live versions covers remixes, nada. Oh well guess I'll have to listen to the whole thing again.
Things end quickly without much room to catch your breath. Youll be Breathless to keep up with the lyrics. This epitomizes that brief moment of death. Fleeting and wanting, sudden yet encompassing. I believe even the gods play this one on repeat
Cheers to the people here who have never spoken your inner battles and got through them. You did that. You’re here and if no one has said it, I love you.
This song saved me from my darkest times. First time I heard it I always thought of letting go as of ending myself. Now I can finally listen to it and think of letting go all the things that ever hurt me. There’s light at the end of the tunnel, it has it ups and downs, but the ups are so worth it, please never give up
Lyrics: Called to the Devil and the Devil did come I said to the devil, "Devil do you like drums? Do you like cigarettes, dominoes, rum?" He said only "sundown, Sundays, Christmas" Some day's end when I need a few friends Now and again I could never hope to keep them Thought to give friends what I thought that they wanted Never had they needed a good friend as I've been Don't get me venting on friends who resent you 'Cause all you've ever done is been a noose to hang on to They thought was a necklace and reckless they fell into hell Where you both hang with nothing to do but Scratch, kick, let gravity win like Fuck this, let gravity win like You could leave it all behind Even the Devil needs time alone sometimes You could let it all go, you could let it all go It's called: freefall It's called: freefall Called to the Devil and the Devil said quit Can't be bothered better handle your shit Keep about your wits man, keep about your wits Know yourself and who you came in with Can I sit down I've been hustling all day I can't even count how many souls I've made Off the same deal you on Remember, the Devil ain't a friend to no one But fine, true You could let it all go, you could let it all go It's Called: Freefall It's Called: Freefall Called to the Devil and the Devil said Hey! Why you been calling this late? It's like 2 A.M. and the bars all close at 10 in hell, that's a rule I made Anyway, you say you're too busy saving everybody else to save yourself And you don't want no help, oh well That's the story to tell Like you could let it all go, you could let it all go It's called: freefall It's called: freefall You could let it all go, you could let it all go Cause ain't shit free but falling out And that shit's easy let me show you how, it's like Ain't shit free but falling out And that shit's easy let me show you how it's like
Sometimes I come here to heal my PTSD. I could let it all go but you know how many Souls I've touched. I'm still here to spread this light I have in me. I'll keep going for today❤
As veteran, constantly fighting demons, I needed this, holidays are rough especially when we're alone for them. I went in as a broken kid and came back a different kind of broken as a man. ...I needed this. Check in your friends people. If you havnt heard from one in awhile reach out, if they pop up in your mind randomly please reach out, just a simple " hey I hope your good" can save a life.
Hey thanks for sharing. I’m not a veteran but my grandpa was and we lost him a few years ago to the “freefall”. We had no idea that he was struggling with depression. We need to do more for veterans and provide safe spaces to talk about the demons because talking about it is the first step. Anyways, hope you’re good. Hang in there friend, you are loved.
My son had this CD in his car. He was 35 and sadly took his own life on 25th June 2022. He was a beautiful soul. My grief will be eternal. 😪 Edit. Still surreal to think that a year ago my son was 9 days left on this earth. I have listened to thus song a million times and believe it is a song about taking the plunge into life. I wish I could have saved my son but will now have to wait to see him again in heaven where I believe he is now free of the voices in his head and being surrounded by love. ❤❤😇❤❤
This was my best friends favorite song. It's been since October 28, 2021. I think about her every day. I think of her when I wake up in the morning, and I can feel the sun shine. I think of her when I hear laughter, anyone's. I think of her when I see little children smile. I think of her every second. She was my soulmate, and my closest friend. I listen to this song about 20 times a day. And it somehow heals and wounds me at the same time. Whitney, I love you forever. I thought we would grow old and die together. And my children would know yours, and we would sit side by side with our grandchildren. I thought we were going to undo our trauma, and start fresh. And if your new start was goodbye, then I'm okay with it... As long as you're happy, my dear friend, I'm happy too. I miss you so much. When we meet again, I know that time will let us start again in peace. -Han. (sorry to everyone who read this)
Absolutely agreed. The first time I heard it, I was like "oooh wow, super catchy and chill vibe, I like this song!" After what's probably 1,000 listens I sob when hearing it, and its a song that I now LOVE
@alistairwolfie The times when I listen and also watch the video just hit me right in every single one of my feels. So powerful. Love RKS ❤️🌈🙀 good luck in your journey!
@@KimmaLano I usually try to avoid over listening cuz I hate when I start to dislike song... It didn't happen with you, so I guess it might be save for me too... Thanks for the luck!
This song is one of those things I feel at a degree I can't explain. Idk what it is, but each word hits me like a wave of "same". This shit is my saving grace some days. Same old story of depression, thoughts of suicide. I'm nobody special. But this song makes me feel like I can turn it around. That maybe I can be special. Worthwhile, allowed to exist. Thank you.
Umm.. yes. Yes yes yes. Out of all the awesome comments on this great song you have articulated exactly how it hits me and makes me feel. I think that the words are open to interpretation to a degree meaning that you can get more than one message from it.. and the surreal nature of the video (which is awesome) kind of goes in it's own direction making it a little more confusing. But I agree. For some reason hope is mostly what I get from listening to it and for that I'm super grateful. Cheers brother. One day at a time (or one minute or one second). There are days that absolutely crush me when I look out the window and see what humanity has become and how we treat one another, the animals, the planet.. but that's not everyday. I hate cliches but "this too shall pass" is one that rings true to me and helps me keep going. I haven't thought about suicide in quite some time now and I've spent enough time in the psych ward for a few "attempts". But today I don't want to give up and it's songs and comments like this that keep me going and let me know that I'm not alone.. shit we're not alone. Thanks again man.
The line where he asks the devil "Do you like cigarettes, dominos, rum? He said only, sundown, Sundays, Christmas." is fucking insane and still hits me hard every time.
& it's crazy cuz like, if i'm not mistaken, in the sundown was when God talked to adam, frequent church meetings on sundays and christmas where is the jolliest time of the year
@@goofybonkersflabbergasted He also comes to the devil with all the presumptions about how the devil takes people, but the devil corrects him by basically saying the ways that people take themselves
Hey you. If you ever read this I just wanted to say I’m sorry for everything. I hurt you and this ruined my life. I really want you back and I’m very scared that you have or will have moved on and I’ll just never get over it. I feel like hell, the one that I’ve been calling too late. Anyway I couldn’t save myself or us and I’ll regret this forever. I hope we’ll have a second chance. I’m always ready for you. Thank you rks for bringing us 1:23 together we really connected through this song. We both made mistakes but all this seems so wrong.I really think she is or was the love of my life and that I missed a huge opportunity. I Hope I’ll update this someday.
It helps a lot to comunícate and say your feelings, as a man I know its hard. In life we loose a lot of opportunities and a lot of times it feels like literall sheet. But thats what makes us learn and get better for ourselves and our loved ones. I recomend you to start getting focused on yourself and change even more bad things in you. The changes that other people dont make arent your problem, just stay focused on your vision and stay with the friends that actually make you grow, search for someone that makes you grow. Gd from Argentina
@@EenriMmikawell I’ve done that. I just hope that time seperately will pull us back together. If not, it was not meant to be but I’ll always hope even a little little bit. Thank you for your message really helped and means a lot. Greetings from Greece

This song reminds me of one of my old friends, he would always play this song while we talked or hung out. I deeply miss him, so every time I hear this song or listen to it, it reminds me of him. If you need help or have sick thoughts of doing certain things, please, reach out to a trusted friend or call a hot line. Someones always going to be there for you.
For everyone that found this song, I just wanted to let you know that everything will eventually work out. Just keep trying doing your best. Have a nice day
@@bhvillaman4401Why? Unless you wanted to date one of the band members I really don't get the issue, since it changes nothing about how good the music is. I dislike religion and can still enjoy bands like P.O.D., if the music is enjoyable I don't really care what race, religion or gender the person/band that made it is, but you do you I guess...
Music is a universal language of the soul. You can find meaning and truth in music of any language or lack there of. Even Beethovens sonata 14 carries so much weight and emotion without a single word being spoken.
I interpret this song as the continuous struggle of holding yourself back from your full potential. Often we find a means of escape or numbing out, befriending the devil, any vice that takes away the pain. Even the devil needs time alone, sometimes! Sit with your shit, stop trying to appease everyone else, ask for help if you need it. Let go of whatever limiting belief or action holds you back - free fall.
i remember when this only had 17k views...i see people talking about their "secret being revealed" and i sort of feel the same way, but also im super happy its getting popular because this can be huge for them. theyre an awesome band and i honestly super happy theyre finally getting the recognition they deserve.
yeah i mean i listened way back but i wouldn’t have thought to find them years after switching music platforms without this getting popular. i mean years, like the me that listened to them didn’t think i’d be around to hear their music now type shit
I found this song recently and I feel so lame saying it but, it changed my life. Specifically “you say you’re too busy saving everybody else to save yourself, oh well.” I worked in a highly emotional job and spent the last 5 years hoping if I saved someone else I would be saved too. It made me realize I how badly I tried to by a martyr and how much it wasn’t going to work out for me. This song always feels like the devil is mocking me for coming to him when I’m low. Expecting the devil to pity me when I brought myself to him with my sob story. It made me not want to keep telling my story to “the devil” and start to work on not calling to “him” anymore.
discovered this song 20ish minutes ago and i totally get where you're coming from but im very glad to have found this song. been in a really bad depressive episode the past month and needed to just cry it out lol. this song did that for me
This is the first song my non verbal, 4 yo autistic son has actually asked for (he points to it). I literally cried, I never really knew if he was listening along, jamming with mommy. I know it’s not the most appropriate song for a kid but seeing him calm down instantly when it comes on is just amazing.
This song is so good as someone who’s suffered from depression it’s about letting go and letting life spiral fighting your demons on your own taking time alone to figure things out just let them happen don’t worry and stress too much
I understand this song as a desperate person (maybe thinking in suicide) who call the devil as the last option to talk, or share their shit. In this case the Devil, also tired, explained that life is hard, even for him, these shitty moments are just that, "moments", its a "freefall". Everyone needs a freefall. A moment alone to learn about ourselves or just realize who you can really trust. It's cool how this person calls the Devil again and the Devil is busy or just tired at 2am, and said, I'll show you how to get your "freefall". Simply beautiful. I cried a lot when I understood that even the most powerful people or entities need a rest or pass a shitty time and learn. Someday everything will be ok. Not now, but some day.
The beat drop in this song makes me feel absolutely euphoric. I’ve never experienced anything like it! I love you guys so much. Such a gorgeous video and an even more gorgeous song!!! Come to Scotland one day or else
This song was never yours to keep. Music is not newspaper clippings, not porcelain dolls on a shelf, not "Star Trek"-branded commemorative plates, not even dried flowers.
Watch this once after a long shift and I stupidly decided to drop 3 tabs of LSD. This honestly tickled my brain in a way nothing else has. Fell across it again sober and it still hits almost as intense as it did in my trip. This is something
You can listen to this song at any mood and it will make it better, You can be mad and it will just make you calm or you can be sad and it will make you fine. What a masterpiece.
[Verse 1] Called to the Devil and the Devil did come I said to the Devil, "Devil, do you like drums? Do you like cigarettes, dominoes, rum?"

Realizing that "u could let it all go. It's called freefall. Doesn't mean give up on yourself it means let go of the things out of your control and you'll never feel more free
I heard this song months ago for the first time and thought, "wow the cadence and voice is so beautiful". Listened to it again while high and really listened to the lyrics and it changed me and my whole way of thinking. Thank you guys for this song. It means so much to me.
DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRR DAE DRUGFS/????? HAHAHAH I SMOKED A WEEEED AND IM SO HIUGH!!! MYT WHOLE LIFE CHANGE FROM A WEED GUYS DRTUG!!@!!!!122#12345 6234 fu k u
My Dad overdosed last year and this song just makes me tear up. It has such a profound message. that makes me want to improve my life and stop saving others around me when I am the one I really need to focus on.
I listen to this song not because it's dragging me down, but because I wanna fight back. Even if you have nothing to live for leave, get outta that environment go somewhere where you can thrive, this is a big world, lots of places to see. Now is your chance to grow
Honestly yes. my home life was so toxic and was just trapped there. I met my husband in college and he was my saving grace his parents let me move in and allowed me to free my self from there and to be able to do the things I wanted to do
Thanks to Spotify DJ I found you tonight. I was at the lowest of low points. Ive been streaming your music for several hours. Thank you for pulling me out🙏
I'm in a deep depressive episode right now and the level of conflict I have with this song is so confusing to me It's deep and makes me feel safe yet also sad and suicidal but it calms me and makes me feel a sense of comfort in where I am in life knowing I'm not alone. I haven't ever reached out . I always keep it in because I don't want to hurt the people around me . This song is a safe place and thank God I found it
i’m glad you are still here, this song does the same thing to me and my emotions, i get a sense of everything i lost and what i have now, you are still here because you are strong willed and i have no doubt you will keep it that way my friend, i’m proud of you
This song is simply incredible, death is not something to be afraid of, it's not evil or mean or unforgiving, death is simply death, an inevitable end to an inevitable life because, life is just as inevitable as death. You are here, right now, in this very moment. Once you learn to frgive yourself, embrace death as the beautiful friend that it is, then you will be able to let go of your fears and worries, pains and struggles, trauma and resentment, because there are very few things in live scarier than death. Please if anyone ever reads this just remember: You are alive, you are here, in this very moment, don't waste it thinking about the end because you'll never outrun it. Live life as a child running across the beach to the ocean, with his toes burning from the sand but unfazed for he knows what awaits him is stronger than that pain will ever be.
I am under an intense depressive episode rn. This song means so much. I keep trying to show it to people I love expecting it to profoundly change them the way it does me. I don’t think they’re listening. Like really hearing it. Not the way I hear it Edit: thanks everyone for your support I’m not better but I’m still here 🖤
Same fucking thing happens to me and a fucked up twist, they'll show me the song a few months later like I didn't know about it or show it to em! Fucking morons
Saaaaame. I just keep listening to this song on repeat because it gets me in my feels (in a good way tho) I'm happy that this song is able to help you as well as myself.
Quite the opposite actually lmao. It's about a self-destructive dude who calls up the devil thinking he'll condone his destructive behavior when in reality the devil wants nothing to do with it.
@@gearsofwar2pwnfest throughout the song the narrator gives us contradictions within how he views himself ("never had they needed a good friend as I've been" and then "all you've ever been is a noose to hang onto") and then talks about calling out to the devil who barates him about being needy and then says "say you're too busy saving everybody else and you don't want no help, oh well, that's a story to tell," which is scoffing at the idea that the person is finding excuses to avoid self-help, which is the only thing that could actually help him. The song stresses that the narrator could leave his bitterness and resentment and greif and regret behind if he just gets out of his pity party and lets go.
@@kyla5428 This is how I interpreted it too. The narrator gives a self obsessed story of who they are calling to the devil to validate them but even the devil finds their woes pitiful and insignificant and caused by them self.
When my father passed away at 40 just by falling down the stairs it changed my whole life. Death became such an easy thing to me. Just one wrong slip. It ruined me for a very long time but now that it’s becoming more comfortable to talk about, songs like this become so much better to listen to. There is so much to this story but I just want you to know this song helps me every day that I live on
I'm so sorry for your loss:( I couldn't begin to imagine the hurt you must've felt. It's nice to know a song can help people through hard times and struggle. The power of music is unbelievable and magic.
Oh, jesus. I am so sorry for your sudden loss of your father. Your comment also managed to give me an existential crisis, as I fell down the stairs earlier this morning. I'm 41.
I hope, you’ve Someone to talk to. A good therapist would be good. I can tell you, most adults are overwhelmed themselves, with a topic like that and don’t know what to say or do. I’m 44 now and still grieving sometimes. But it hurt for a long time. I wish you all the best in your life and a lot of honest and loving people ❤🤗
This song got me through so many things. This song got me through losing my best friend, my dearest connection. It helped me mourn another bad birthday. It helped me mourn the death of my first work friendship, and it helped me grasp at the hands I had waiting for me. Helped me see the real people in my life. To finding peace. Tomorrow is the 28th of March. It's also the one year anniversary of my last su1cide attempt. I almost lost my life. And in the hospital I played this as often as I was allowed. Let music free you from your hurt. Let it ease your pain.
My cousin hung him self a year and a few days ago. The same day fever pitch came out actually. This video is just so powerful and makes me think of him. He would’ve loved it. Keep it up guys. I’m so proud of how far you’re coming.
@Nicholas Johnson hey Nicholas! I'm a counselor in training, it's okay to feel scared but please know, we're trained to not be judgemental and to make you feel safe and heard! 🫶🏻 I recommend looking into the different counseling theories and finding a counselor who specializes in the theory that fits you best. I would recommend a Person-Centered Counselor for you
This song reminds me that it’s okay to let go, of old friends, old things that no longer serve you, habits, stressors and even your own ego. Just liberate yourself instead of kicking and screaming that you can’t save your self. Sometimes we save ourselves just by letting go and letting things fall where they may.
This song will always have a confusing place in my heart. The first seizure I witnessed my dad have, was right after i finished this song to go investigate what the loud crash was. That led to a long fucking hell like journey, that ended with my dad passing away. I come back to this song on the days I miss him the most. There will always be a small part of me that'll wonder if I had just not listened to this song, maybe I could've saw ths signs earlier, and stopped it before it got too bad. I know that, realistically isn't what would've happened. Listening to this over and over again somehow gives me some form of comfort. Of my ignorance before knowing all of this would've happened. The days where I could just sit quietly in my room blaring my ear drums out and ignoring what I thought were "lame" parents. Love you Dad.
it isn't your fault at all plz don't blame yourself the seizure would've happened regardless of if you listened to this song or not i hope you're doing okay i wish you nothing but the best
I'm so sorry, it must be terrible to carry this. Grief leaves so many questions behind. I can never speak for your father, but I know how much joy it brings me to see my loved ones get lost in a song; I'm glad you can still connect to him through it. Thinking of you in the days ahead.
"called to the devil and the devil said 'hey, why you been callin this late? its like 2 am and the dars all close at 10 in hell its a rule i made'" that line is my FAVoRITE they are lyrical geniuses.
It's rare that a song actually gives me chills, like everything about this song from the lyrics, to the grungey break at the end just blows me away everytime.
This is the song I've been listening to lately and to me it speaks to the levels of exhaustion I've felt trying to maintain friendship with those not worthy or respectful of my existence in their lives, so many showing they true colors these days
yea same i cant tell if im paranoid anymore or they arent friends i just dont know how to tell it make me think if maybe im being paranoid and im the bad one
@@pyro-x9900 I'm going to the national parks to do some mushrooms. Since commenting, the fact I've made it this far without ending myself is an achievement. I am not well, but I have my music, my books, and my feet, gon walk around the mountains and woods. Dissolve back into nature
When my cat was diagnosed with cancer for some reason this was the only song I could listen to. My cat was my soul, she meant more than the world to me. She got me through so much. I hope everyone gets to experience the power of a cat that makes you a better person. She was diagnosed and passed away within two weeks, there were no warning signs. It was excruciating. She saved me but I couldn’t save her.
Some of my best friends have been cats. They add so much dimension to a human life but they ALWAYS die too soon. Sorry for your loss. Get another cat. Get two lol
This is a song that you could ball your eyes out to the first time you listen to it and every time after you could do it just to keep yourself going every day...
I set this song on repeat and feel all the feelings I've shrugged off for too long. This is the only song that's ever hit me like that. Something about the music and the voice just puts me in a translucent state.
i totally feel you man. this song has been playing for the past 20 min and the emotional waterfall is literally uncontrollable. this song has somehow found me at the time i needed it most
This song has helped snap me out of self loathing and to work through my traumas so that I don't drag others down with me. It has absolutely humbled the shit out of me as well. I feel like Dr Phil has given me the knife hands...
I lost my best friend in February of 2019. The day I found out he was taken off of life support. And later died. this song came up in my recommends...I knew in a strange way it was him telling me not to be afraid of death. Because he wasn't...I love you Dimitri I miss you everyday man. Rest in peace king. you earned it❤
I hate the fact that many masterpiece songs like this remain unnoticed,I mean why this song has less than 10 million views..? It really deserve atleast 100 milion views....
“Even the Devil needs time alone, some times” I feel this line in my bones. I feel this entire song in my bones. I listened to it on repeat for the last 4 days. It's stuck in my head because its so damn good. Thank You.
I’ve been listening to RKS since 2013 and watching this made me cry. It’s so beautiful, this band never ceases to make me feel something new with every song.
its nice knowing other people are also going through this situation..it helps me to not feel lonely :) strangers just know me better than my family members
I almost teared up at 1:56 , the visual fits so well with the feeling the song gave me when i listened to it for the 1st time, it's so rare when an animation or a clip fits perfectly with the music like just WOW
This song weirdly gives me strength, when I'm at the brink I listen to my playlist, this plays then I have to replay it just because of how comforting it is
Bro this song and you just saved me🤫💜 ...keep strong cause aint shit free but falling out that shits easy .and were not people who accept to be weak in a time we need to be strongest ..keep your head up and you're heart strong you are awesome and loved
It’s pretty crazy if you look back in life and think of all the friends you’ve had compared to what you’re left with as adults. I’ve had a few buddies I thought I’d be friends with until the grave but things change and I’m glad they do.
this hits different when you feel like you’re life is falling apart but also coming together in a way that is new & so much better than before, even if you have no idea how everything will look like. new beginnings & endings. you are allowed to let go.
This was beautifully worded. I'm experiencing this exact thing.
Kind of like a puzzle, really. You start with all these broken pieces lying around, and only a picture of what you want at the end. You have to wait until you find the right pieces to continue, because trying to force things only leads to a mess. But if you keep going, day by day, you'll find that it all comes together quite brilliantly.
Thanks for this sister!
That's so crazy. Been listening to this song here and there for 2 or 3 years. I've been listening to it a lot lately. My life was in absolute turmoil with poverty, death, and everything in between. I just got a nice sum of Money and can fix my house and life and I'm still scared but trying to be hopeful. The pieces are coming together but I'm wary. Thanks for the comment I'm looking at this song a Lil differently now.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Strange how this kind is of music finds you when you need it. I'm extremely grateful for this song and the dudes that created it.
Found me when I really needed it.
RKS is probably my favorite band of all time. Great style, great instrumentation, amazing heart-felt lyrics, amazing vocals from lead and all the backing. Can't get enough. I just wish they would release a new album already. I've been waiting years.
Me too. Me too
Kept me alive last summer
I thought this song was uncannily timely but this comment is just as wild
“Even the Devil needs time alone, some times”- is the greatest bar in rock music in the lasts decade
Can you tell me what that means?
@@lorenaaurora The guy in the song is trying to be all buddy buddy with the devil and the devil is telling him to fuck off basically. Like you got yourself in here and I'm not your friend

I'm sorry for your loss 💔
Omg... 😔 Bless her... Bless you...
I lost my sister in 2012 it’s always hard but it gets easier as time goes on love
This is such a dark yet liberating song about just giving up and allowing yourself to spiral towards death. That may sound depressing in theory, but as someone who has struggled with suicidal feelings for most of my life, I can tell you that accepting death as THE inevitable ending to yourself and everyone else is one of the most comforting things one can do. The monster in the closet is no longer scary once you get to know him and get used to him. Soldiers in war must eventually learn to take the lives of others, and eventually it becomes just another part of their routine. To embrace death, not in fear or resentment, nor happiness, but as something you don't concern yourself with and yet accept will one day get you, is a beautiful thing for the tortured soul. Accepting death better motivates you to accept life as well, because few things in life are more worrying than death; if you don't fear death, then doing all the things you were too afraid to do before in life no longer seem so grandiose and impossible. Live each day like the last day of school. Embrace death, and live life.
Your death is with you at all times, beside you, behind you, ahead, always waiting for its day. To me this song seems to be about drugs though and communities/relationship being destroyed.
Read up on the philosophy of Stoicism. Sounds like you're already on the track, though. Memento Mori. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memento_mori
Good luck.
Literally crying
It's about having friends who give up on the friendship. It's very tongue-in-cheek about it for the most part: "Cause aint shit free but falling out, that shit's easy, lemme show you how." There's also a bit of the "The devil you know is better than the devil you don't" notion too, reflecting that often enough staying in a toxic friendship is easier than moving on, and that trying to save someone when they don't want to help themselves is sure to bring you misery. "Anyway, you say you're too busy saving everybody else to save yourself, and you don't want no help. Oh well." Ultimately it seems to be about Wanting to save someone, and then chastising yourself for giving up even though there was nothing you could do while also, perhaps, leading by example by exiting the relationship while trying not to feel too shitty about it. So yeah, it's complex, but it's not as deep and esoteric as you make it out to be.
Memento Mori.
After listening to this many times I’ve come to the conclusion: this song isn’t about letting go and dying, it’s about letting go and living 🙏
Urg I have nothing real to add to this but god do I love it, real liberation right there
ive always thought of it more as acceptance, kinda like that bitter-sweetness of somethings where its like, yeah that really sucks but its okay
@@richardsimpson5938 that a fair take but I really see the original comments side
A few years ago I was really depressed to the point where I decided I’d end it and be done, but I quickly realised that I was gonna die anyway, so I just let go. Something about accepting death but letting it come at its own pace allowed me to be actually happy in a way I’d never thought possible, something I’m still living with today
I think it’s because once I accepted my death I had nothing left to fear, I’m allowed to be happy because I’ve no reason to put up with anything else
@@ImMimicute looking at it today both comments basically mean the same thing i think haha but yeah exactly
yesss
My friend recommended me this last month, he's now gone into universal freefall..
Edit: my original comment was a more personal tribute, but i read a read a few of the negative comments and began to feel guilty so i edited the comment to make it more generic. Upon reflection, i wish i'd have just left it how it was. It's beautiful to see the amount of love and support that can be held in a comment section on youtube. To the few who decided to leave negative comments, please remember there are other human beings at the other side of your computer screen.

Pls do love u
Just one moment to the next brother. I'm sorry for your loss.
Bro I felt that❤❤ stay strong bro, I miss my friend too...
I said a prayer for Liam...stay strong brother
I can’t get over this song. “Even the devil needs time alone sometimes”, the delivery, harmonies so beautifully haunting.
Damn. I cant stop listening to this song. I wish there was other songs that had a vibe like this.
When i was done dying
Yw
pain killers is really good to
Modest Mouse has some songs like this
i think that makes it even more special
dan deacon has the same vibe to this
I’ve developed an unhealthy obsession with this song
Scratch that it’s an addiction

how did it go
@@randalhopkins9984 awesome. I’m so proud of it. One of my favorite tattoos ever.
Hell yeah !
@@bekkes7923nice
Where did you get tattooed on?
I find it so pretty when coming back to older songs like this and seeing all the comments from so many different years apart. Its beautiful to think about so many different people listening to this in different periods of their life and how it mightve impacted them.
This song is absolutely criminally short. The end should just keep going and going and going
Literally I'd settle for a straight up loop at this point. I've looked for live versions covers remixes, nada. Oh well guess I'll have to listen to the whole thing again.
Ayo check out eternal jukebox
Things end quickly without much room to catch your breath. Youll be Breathless to keep up with the lyrics. This epitomizes that brief moment of death. Fleeting and wanting, sudden yet encompassing. I believe even the gods play this one on repeat
have to replay it at least 4 times
They have this song out live on youtube now a days
Cheers to the people here who have never spoken your inner battles and got through them. You did that. You’re here and if no one has said it, I love you.

@@keiganblaise9878 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I thought the song was painting the devil as a good guy.
JustHANO the devil ain’t a friend to no one
This song saved me from my darkest times. First time I heard it I always thought of letting go as of ending myself. Now I can finally listen to it and think of letting go all the things that ever hurt me. There’s light at the end of the tunnel, it has it ups and downs, but the ups are so worth it, please never give up
You spilled actual beauty in this comment 💯💯
I love you god does too😊
same, i was just about to let go...
I needed to hear this tonight. Thank you friend.
Thank you for sticking around, you matter, don't give up. The sun rises even after the darkest night.

Lyrics:
Called to the Devil and the Devil did come
I said to the devil, "Devil do you like drums?
Do you like cigarettes, dominoes, rum?"
He said only "sundown, Sundays, Christmas"
Some day's end when I need a few friends
Now and again I could never hope to keep them
Thought to give friends what I thought that they wanted
Never had they needed a good friend as I've been
Don't get me venting on friends who resent you
'Cause all you've ever done is been a noose to hang on to
They thought was a necklace and reckless they fell into hell
Where you both hang with nothing to do but
Scratch, kick, let gravity win like
Fuck this, let gravity win like
You could leave it all behind
Even the Devil needs time alone sometimes
You could let it all go, you could let it all go
It's called: freefall
It's called: freefall
Called to the Devil and the Devil said quit
Can't be bothered better handle your shit
Keep about your wits man, keep about your wits
Know yourself and who you came in with
Can I sit down I've been hustling all day
I can't even count how many souls I've made
Off the same deal you on
Remember, the Devil ain't a friend to no one
But fine, true
You could let it all go, you could let it all go
It's Called: Freefall
It's Called: Freefall
Called to the Devil and the Devil said
Hey! Why you been calling this late?
It's like 2 A.M. and the bars all close at 10 in hell, that's a rule I made
Anyway, you say you're too busy saving everybody else to save yourself
And you don't want no help, oh well
That's the story to tell
Like you could let it all go, you could let it all go
It's called: freefall
It's called: freefall
You could let it all go, you could let it all go
Cause ain't shit free but falling out
And that shit's easy let me show you how, it's like
Ain't shit free but falling out
And that shit's easy let me show you how it's like
Thanks!
I've been looking for this for a while, thanks :)

Much Love to you brother.
Sometimes I come here to heal my PTSD. I could let it all go but you know how many Souls I've touched. I'm still here to spread this light I have in me. I'll keep going for today❤
As veteran, constantly fighting demons, I needed this, holidays are rough especially when we're alone for them. I went in as a broken kid and came back a different kind of broken as a man. ...I needed this. Check in your friends people. If you havnt heard from one in awhile reach out, if they pop up in your mind randomly please reach out, just a simple " hey I hope your good" can save a life.
Hey thanks for sharing. I’m not a veteran but my grandpa was and we lost him a few years ago to the “freefall”. We had no idea that he was struggling with depression. We need to do more for veterans and provide safe spaces to talk about the demons because talking about it is the first step. Anyways, hope you’re good. Hang in there friend, you are loved.
Hey.. I hope your doing okay
Stay safe and take care to yourself bro
hope you’re doing well bro. stay as strong as you can
Psalms 18:2. You are loved. Stay strong.
My son had this CD in his car. He was 35 and sadly took his own life on 25th June 2022. He was a beautiful soul. My grief will be eternal. 😪 Edit. Still surreal to think that a year ago my son was 9 days left on this earth. I have listened to thus song a million times and believe it is a song about taking the plunge into life. I wish I could have saved my son but will now have to wait to see him again in heaven where I believe he is now free of the voices in his head and being surrounded by love. ❤❤😇❤❤
May he rest in peace.
Grief is always eternal, that's the beauty in it. Keep doing your best Tracey and that will be enough to honor the memory of your son
So sorry for your loss
May he Rest In Peace
rest in peace to your son 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
This was my best friends favorite song. It's been since October 28, 2021. I think about her every day. I think of her when I wake up in the morning, and I can feel the sun shine. I think of her when I hear laughter, anyone's. I think of her when I see little children smile. I think of her every second. She was my soulmate, and my closest friend. I listen to this song about 20 times a day. And it somehow heals and wounds me at the same time. Whitney, I love you forever. I thought we would grow old and die together. And my children would know yours, and we would sit side by side with our grandchildren. I thought we were going to undo our trauma, and start fresh. And if your new start was goodbye, then I'm okay with it... As long as you're happy, my dear friend, I'm happy too. I miss you so much. When we meet again, I know that time will let us start again in peace. -Han.
(sorry to everyone who read this)
Don’t apologize this was so beautiful..
Thats touching
That was a great message, I’m sorry for your friends passing and am thankful you shared. Not sorry for reading at all ❤️
I’m so sorry ❤️
Love sent to you boo. Hang tight and keep free falling. You deserve it.
The music will find the ears it wants to speak to. We are lucky.
It's one of those songs, which gets better and more emotional with every time you listen
Absolutely agreed. The first time I heard it, I was like "oooh wow, super catchy and chill vibe, I like this song!" After what's probably 1,000 listens I sob when hearing it, and its a song that I now LOVE
@@KimmaLano yea, I'm in the same boat, but I'm nowhere close to 1000 listens, so I guess I have a long journey ahead to feel you :)
@alistairwolfie The times when I listen and also watch the video just hit me right in every single one of my feels. So powerful. Love RKS ❤️🌈🙀 good luck in your journey!
@@KimmaLano I usually try to avoid over listening cuz I hate when I start to dislike song... It didn't happen with you, so I guess it might be save for me too...
Thanks for the luck!
How he says "Free fall" hits me every time
This song is one of those things I feel at a degree I can't explain. Idk what it is, but each word hits me like a wave of "same".
This shit is my saving grace some days. Same old story of depression, thoughts of suicide. I'm nobody special. But this song makes me feel like I can turn it around. That maybe I can be special. Worthwhile, allowed to exist. Thank you.
I feel you.
You ARE special.
You matter.
You're worth it.
Keep going.
Things change, but we gotta work for it.
Much love.
Remember, that the most important person in this universe is you, or your kids if you got em
I am there with you. You're very much allowed to LIVE not just exist. Fight through those thoughts.
I wish you well my friend :) we are all in this together
Umm.. yes. Yes yes yes. Out of all the awesome comments on this great song you have articulated exactly how it hits me and makes me feel. I think that the words are open to interpretation to a degree meaning that you can get more than one message from it.. and the surreal nature of the video (which is awesome) kind of goes in it's own direction making it a little more confusing. But I agree. For some reason hope is mostly what I get from listening to it and for that I'm super grateful. Cheers brother. One day at a time (or one minute or one second). There are days that absolutely crush me when I look out the window and see what humanity has become and how we treat one another, the animals, the planet.. but that's not everyday. I hate cliches but "this too shall pass" is one that rings true to me and helps me keep going. I haven't thought about suicide in quite some time now and I've spent enough time in the psych ward for a few "attempts". But today I don't want to give up and it's songs and comments like this that keep me going and let me know that I'm not alone.. shit we're not alone. Thanks again man.
The line where he asks the devil "Do you like cigarettes, dominos, rum? He said only, sundown, Sundays, Christmas." is fucking insane and still hits me hard every time.
why
@@goofybonkersflabbergasted if I'm not mistaken those are the times when suicide are high
& it's crazy cuz like, if i'm not mistaken, in the sundown was when God talked to adam, frequent church meetings on sundays and christmas where is the jolliest time of the year
i may be saying nonsense but well--
@@goofybonkersflabbergasted He also comes to the devil with all the presumptions about how the devil takes people, but the devil corrects him by basically saying the ways that people take themselves
Hey you. If you ever read this I just wanted to say I’m sorry for everything. I hurt you and this ruined my life. I really want you back and I’m very scared that you have or will have moved on and I’ll just never get over it. I feel like hell, the one that I’ve been calling too late. Anyway I couldn’t save myself or us and I’ll regret this forever. I hope we’ll have a second chance. I’m always ready for you. Thank you rks for bringing us 1:23 together we really connected through this song. We both made mistakes but all this seems so wrong.I really think she is or was the love of my life and that I missed a huge opportunity. I Hope I’ll update this someday.
I’m sorry but I can’t forgive him after what he did to me…
Same exact message heads up for you, bro likewise for myself
It helps a lot to comunícate and say your feelings, as a man I know its hard. In life we loose a lot of opportunities and a lot of times it feels like literall sheet. But thats what makes us learn and get better for ourselves and our loved ones. I recomend you to start getting focused on yourself and change even more bad things in you. The changes that other people dont make arent your problem, just stay focused on your vision and stay with the friends that actually make you grow, search for someone that makes you grow. Gd from Argentina
@@EenriMmikawell I’ve done that. I just hope that time seperately will pull us back together. If not, it was not meant to be but I’ll always hope even a little little bit. Thank you for your message really helped and means a lot. Greetings from Greece
Stay strong.. I can relate to this so heavily. It gets easier.
I lost my friend yesterday. A true beautiful soul. Shine bright Sophia. I love you.
So sorry to hear this. I lost my cousin to suicide in 2021, the most beautiful souls leave us the earliest. She’s always with you❤️
R.I.P to your friend and cousin. I’m so sorry that happened to you guys :( 💗
Be strong dear👍🏼🤞🏼❤️
I feel you, be strong
Sorry for your lost
What I love most about this song is that everyone finds their own meaning to it.

It's 2023 and I just found RKS. The right music has a way of finding you when you need it most. ty rks.
Just bare in mind they're trannies cause that massively put me off 😂
@@bhvillaman4401Why? Unless you wanted to date one of the band members I really don't get the issue, since it changes nothing about how good the music is.
I dislike religion and can still enjoy bands like P.O.D., if the music is enjoyable I don't really care what race, religion or gender the person/band that made it is, but you do you I guess...
It’s now 2024
Music is a universal language of the soul. You can find meaning and truth in music of any language or lack there of. Even Beethovens sonata 14 carries so much weight and emotion without a single word being spoken.
1:53 should be the halfway point I cannot get enough of this or replicate this feeling with any other song...
Yes yes yes I feel the same exact way!! That part needs a song of its own
I interpret this song as the continuous struggle of holding yourself back from your full potential. Often we find a means of escape or numbing out, befriending the devil, any vice that takes away the pain. Even the devil needs time alone, sometimes! Sit with your shit, stop trying to appease everyone else, ask for help if you need it. Let go of whatever limiting belief or action holds you back - free fall.
Ya
Yuppp!!
thank you

Reddit thread “what song is 10/10 yet hardly anyone had heard of it?” brought me here. 10/10 agreed
Idk about a 10 but this is a 8 atleast. I like devil like me more
Yes, exactly the same. Haha I thought I was the only one 👍🏻
Same, thank you ranom Raddit user!
link to the thread for those of use wanting to see other posts in it?
Hey I commented something like that on that thread 😳
i remember when this only had 17k views...i see people talking about their "secret being revealed" and i sort of feel the same way, but also im super happy its getting popular because this can be huge for them. theyre an awesome band and i honestly super happy theyre finally getting the recognition they deserve.
I'm excited they're getting more attention because now that means there's a higher probability of seeing them in concert :)
yeah i mean i listened way back but i wouldn’t have thought to find them years after switching music platforms without this getting popular. i mean years, like the me that listened to them didn’t think i’d be around to hear their music now type shit
I found this song recently and I feel so lame saying it but, it changed my life. Specifically “you say you’re too busy saving everybody else to save yourself, oh well.” I worked in a highly emotional job and spent the last 5 years hoping if I saved someone else I would be saved too. It made me realize I how badly I tried to by a martyr and how much it wasn’t going to work out for me.
This song always feels like the devil is mocking me for coming to him when I’m low. Expecting the devil to pity me when I brought myself to him with my sob story. It made me not want to keep telling my story to “the devil” and start to work on not calling to “him” anymore.

discovered this song 20ish minutes ago and i totally get where you're coming from but im very glad to have found this song. been in a really bad depressive episode the past month and needed to just cry it out lol. this song did that for me
1:57 my fav part.
This is the first song my non verbal, 4 yo autistic son has actually asked for (he points to it). I literally cried, I never really knew if he was listening along, jamming with mommy. I know it’s not the most appropriate song for a kid but seeing him calm down instantly when it comes on is just amazing.
Beautiful
Good music taste, wish you all the best
The colors and animation is amazing
All love

This song deserves a full 10 minutes, possibly the greatest tune of all time
It has Modest Mouse World At Large vibes to me
@@lisadaniels6457 I went and had a listen, wow what a song! Thanks for the recommendation!
It ends to soon! I want to know more about these conversations!!
Calm down man, but it's a very interesting song. It's always good to have songs with a meaning.
@@lisadaniels6457 EEEYYYYY! I said the same. Im a huge fan of Modest Mouse. Fell in love with this band too.
This song is so good as someone who’s suffered from depression it’s about letting go and letting life spiral fighting your demons on your own taking time alone to figure things out just let them happen don’t worry and stress too much
I hope you are still alive and going strong!
I understand this song as a desperate person (maybe thinking in suicide) who call the devil as the last option to talk, or share their shit. In this case the Devil, also tired, explained that life is hard, even for him, these shitty moments are just that, "moments", its a "freefall". Everyone needs a freefall. A moment alone to learn about ourselves or just realize who you can really trust.
It's cool how this person calls the Devil again and the Devil is busy or just tired at 2am, and said, I'll show you how to get your "freefall".
Simply beautiful. I cried a lot when I understood that even the most powerful people or entities need a rest or pass a shitty time and learn. Someday everything will be ok. Not now, but some day.
The beat drop in this song makes me feel absolutely euphoric. I’ve never experienced anything like it! I love you guys so much. Such a gorgeous video and an even more gorgeous song!!! Come to Scotland one day or else
100% agree, this is my favorite song by them for sure.
Agreed! Get your asses to Scotland!
If you want another euphoric drop I reccomend in the flowers by animal collective
@@fayubstay I went to that song and it's beautiful! Thank's for recommending it.
hahaha read this before actually hear it...had to come back to say you told me so
Some Hollywood director will eventually find this song and use it. And our secret will be gone.
Ooh fuck I found the first person who thinks like me. You are the one
I'll use it I promise.
Especially it’s been chosen by the almighty algorithm
Good. Music which makes you feel was never meant to be hoarded.
This song was never yours to keep. Music is not newspaper clippings, not porcelain dolls on a shelf, not "Star Trek"-branded commemorative plates, not even dried flowers.
Even though this was released before The Midnight Gospel, it gives a lot of the show’s vibes.
Duncan Trussell approves of this comment.
Stay awesome.
pls 😭 ur right tho
OMG FRRRR
Watch this once after a long shift and I stupidly decided to drop 3 tabs of LSD. This honestly tickled my brain in a way nothing else has. Fell across it again sober and it still hits almost as intense as it did in my trip. This is something
You can listen to this song at any mood and it will make it better, You can be mad and it will just make you calm or you can be sad and it will make you fine. What a masterpiece.
And you can be fine and make you sad like me now idk if it’s jest me tho but this song is the best ❤
Verdade
[Verse 1]
Called to the Devil and the Devil did come
I said to the Devil, "Devil, do you like drums?
Do you like cigarettes, dominoes, rum?"
He said, "Only sundown, Sundays, Christmas"
[Verse 2]
Some days end when I need a few friends
Now and again, I could never hope to keep them
Thought to give friends what I thought that they wanted
Never had they needed a good friend as I've been
[Verse 3]
Don't get me ventin' on friends who resent you
'Cause all you've ever done is been a noose to hang on to
They thought was a necklace and reckless
They fell into Hell where you both hang with nothing to do but
[Pre-Chorus]
Scratch, kick, let gravity win like
Fuck this, let gravity win like
You could leave it all behind
Even the Devil need time alone sometimes
[Chorus]
You could let it all go
You could let it all go
It's called "freefall"
It's called "freefall"
[Verse 4]
Called to the Devil and the Devil said, "Quit
Can't be bothered, better handle y'all shit
Keep about your wits, man, keep about your wits
Know yourself and who you came in with
Can I sit down? I've been hustlin' all day
I can't even count how many souls I've made
Off the same deal you're on
Remember, the Devil ain't a friend to no one
But fine, true
[Chorus]
Well, you could let it all go
You could let it all go
It's called "freefall"
It's called "freefall"
[Verse 5]
Called to the Devil and the Devil said, "Hey
Why you been callin' this late?
It's like 2 AM and the bars all close at 10 in Hell
That's a rule I made
Anyway, you say you're too busy
Savin' everybody else to save yourself
And you don't want no help, oh well
That's the story to tell"
[Chorus]
Like, you could let it all go
You could let it all go
It's called "freefall"
It's called "freefall"
You could let it all go
You could let it all go
'Cause ain't shit free but fallin' out
That shit's easy, let me show you how, it's like
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Ain't shit free but fallin' out
That shit's easy, let me show you how, it's like

i love people like you
Thank you
Realizing that "u could let it all go. It's called freefall. Doesn't mean give up on yourself it means let go of the things out of your control and you'll never feel more free
"You can leave it all behind. Even the devil needs time alone sometimes. You can let it all go. You can let it all go. Free fall. Free fall. "
Greatest bar about quitting addiction ever dropped in music
I heard this song months ago for the first time and thought, "wow the cadence and voice is so beautiful". Listened to it again while high and really listened to the lyrics and it changed me and my whole way of thinking. Thank you guys for this song. It means so much to me.

My Dad overdosed last year and this song just makes me tear up. It has such a profound message. that makes me want to improve my life and stop saving others around me when I am the one I really need to focus on.
Be strong! You are the most important in your life! Love you!
I listen to this song not because it's dragging me down, but because I wanna fight back. Even if you have nothing to live for leave, get outta that environment go somewhere where you can thrive, this is a big world, lots of places to see. Now is your chance to grow
Honestly yes. my home life was so toxic and was just trapped there. I met my husband in college and he was my saving grace his parents let me move in and allowed me to free my self from there and to be able to do the things I wanted to do
Thanks to Spotify DJ I found you tonight. I was at the lowest of low points.
Ive been streaming your music for several hours.
Thank you for pulling me out🙏
I'm in a deep depressive episode right now and the level of conflict I have with this song is so confusing to me
It's deep and makes me feel safe yet also sad and suicidal but it calms me and makes me feel a sense of comfort in where I am in life knowing I'm not alone. I haven't ever reached out . I always keep it in because I don't want to hurt the people around me . This song is a safe place and thank God I found it
Thank God your alive! Hope today was a good day and if not i love you :)
i’m glad you are still here, this song does the same thing to me and my emotions, i get a sense of everything i lost and what i have now, you are still here because you are strong willed and i have no doubt you will keep it that way my friend, i’m proud of you
Thank you for the replies ❤️❤️
@@tbtag7222 your so welcome! glad to have you alive and well :)
@@tbtag7222 always dawg, keep fighting
This song is simply incredible, death is not something to be afraid of, it's not evil or mean or unforgiving, death is simply death, an inevitable end to an inevitable life because, life is just as inevitable as death. You are here, right now, in this very moment. Once you learn to frgive yourself, embrace death as the beautiful friend that it is, then you will be able to let go of your fears and worries, pains and struggles, trauma and resentment, because there are very few things in live scarier than death. Please if anyone ever reads this just remember: You are alive, you are here, in this very moment, don't waste it thinking about the end because you'll never outrun it. Live life as a child running across the beach to the ocean, with his toes burning from the sand but unfazed for he knows what awaits him is stronger than that pain will ever be.
Perfectly said
❤❤❤❤
This just made me cry.
I'm not even joking this is so inspiring.
This should be a quote on Google bruh😭
Why isn’t this the top comment?
I just want to print your comment out and hang it on the wall. I’m trying to survive after the death of my younger brother and this is really helpful
I am under an intense depressive episode rn. This song means so much. I keep trying to show it to people I love expecting it to profoundly change them the way it does me. I don’t think they’re listening. Like really hearing it. Not the way I hear it
Edit: thanks everyone for your support I’m not better but I’m still here 🖤
Something's are only meant for you
Same fucking thing happens to me and a fucked up twist, they'll show me the song a few months later like I didn't know about it or show it to em! Fucking morons
I can relate. Sounds dumb but I recently watched Adventure Time the whole way through and it has helped me.
I hear it. And check out 'when I was done dying'
Saaaaame. I just keep listening to this song on repeat because it gets me in my feels (in a good way tho) I'm happy that this song is able to help you as well as myself.
„You can let it all go, you can leave it all behind, even the devil needs time alone sometimes“. Damn!
The beauty of letting go..
This song gives me "it's ok not to be ok" vibes but I'm not sure it was intended
Quite the opposite actually lmao. It's about a self-destructive dude who calls up the devil thinking he'll condone his destructive behavior when in reality the devil wants nothing to do with it.
@@barzzey_1171 i don't really get it... can you explain more? Sorry i'm DAFT
@@gearsofwar2pwnfest throughout the song the narrator gives us contradictions within how he views himself ("never had they needed a good friend as I've been" and then "all you've ever been is a noose to hang onto") and then talks about calling out to the devil who barates him about being needy and then says "say you're too busy saving everybody else and you don't want no help, oh well, that's a story to tell," which is scoffing at the idea that the person is finding excuses to avoid self-help, which is the only thing that could actually help him. The song stresses that the narrator could leave his bitterness and resentment and greif and regret behind if he just gets out of his pity party and lets go.
@@kyla5428 This is how I interpreted it too. The narrator gives a self obsessed story of who they are calling to the devil to validate them but even the devil finds their woes pitiful and insignificant and caused by them self.
@@kyla5428 That's my interpretation too.
When my father passed away at 40 just by falling down the stairs it changed my whole life. Death became such an easy thing to me. Just one wrong slip. It ruined me for a very long time but now that it’s becoming more comfortable to talk about, songs like this become so much better to listen to. There is so much to this story but I just want you to know this song helps me every day that I live on
I'm so sorry for your loss:( I couldn't begin to imagine the hurt you must've felt. It's nice to know a song can help people through hard times and struggle. The power of music is unbelievable and magic.
Oh, jesus. I am so sorry for your sudden loss of your father.
Your comment also managed to give me an existential crisis, as I fell down the stairs earlier this morning. I'm 41.
@@Absolutely_Nobodyhe was one year younger. So…: be thankful 👆🏽🙌🏽
I hope, you’ve Someone to talk to. A good therapist would be good. I can tell you, most adults are overwhelmed themselves, with a topic like that and don’t know what to say or do.
I’m 44 now and still grieving sometimes. But it hurt for a long time.
I wish you all the best in your life and a lot of honest and loving people ❤🤗

This song got me through so many things.
This song got me through losing my best friend, my dearest connection. It helped me mourn another bad birthday. It helped me mourn the death of my first work friendship, and it helped me grasp at the hands I had waiting for me. Helped me see the real people in my life. To finding peace. Tomorrow is the 28th of March. It's also the one year anniversary of my last su1cide attempt. I almost lost my life. And in the hospital I played this as often as I was allowed. Let music free you from your hurt. Let it ease your pain.
My cousin hung him self a year and a few days ago. The same day fever pitch came out actually. This video is just so powerful and makes me think of him. He would’ve loved it. Keep it up guys. I’m so proud of how far you’re coming.
I'm sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your story.
Emily Fritts thanks for sharing your story, I hope music helps you cope with your loss a little better

My counselor recommended me this band and I will be forever grateful, hope shes doing well, she has great music taste.
What a great lady
That's so cool. I'm about to start my master's for counseling. I'll keep music recommendations in mind for my future practices!
@Nicholas Johnson hey nick! its okay to not feel to talk to a counselor, we all can feel sensitive. you can still hang on!
Love to see it
@Nicholas Johnson hey Nicholas! I'm a counselor in training, it's okay to feel scared but please know, we're trained to not be judgemental and to make you feel safe and heard! 🫶🏻 I recommend looking into the different counseling theories and finding a counselor who specializes in the theory that fits you best. I would recommend a Person-Centered Counselor for you
This song reminds me that it’s okay to let go, of old friends, old things that no longer serve you, habits, stressors and even your own ego. Just liberate yourself instead of kicking and screaming that you can’t save your self. Sometimes we save ourselves just by letting go and letting things fall where they may.
This song will always have a confusing place in my heart. The first seizure I witnessed my dad have, was right after i finished this song to go investigate what the loud crash was. That led to a long fucking hell like journey, that ended with my dad passing away. I come back to this song on the days I miss him the most. There will always be a small part of me that'll wonder if I had just not listened to this song, maybe I could've saw ths signs earlier, and stopped it before it got too bad. I know that, realistically isn't what would've happened.
Listening to this over and over again somehow gives me some form of comfort. Of my ignorance before knowing all of this would've happened. The days where I could just sit quietly in my room blaring my ear drums out and ignoring what I thought were "lame" parents.
Love you Dad.
I’m sorry man don’t be to hard on yourself it’s not your fault at all
AAUGH HUN!!! I SOOO FEEL FOR YOU!!!! I HOPE YOUR OK HUN!!!
it isn't your fault at all plz don't blame yourself the seizure would've happened regardless of if you listened to this song or not i hope you're doing okay i wish you nothing but the best
I'm so sorry, it must be terrible to carry this. Grief leaves so many questions behind. I can never speak for your father, but I know how much joy it brings me to see my loved ones get lost in a song; I'm glad you can still connect to him through it. Thinking of you in the days ahead.
I'm so sorry for your loss
"called to the devil and the devil said 'hey, why you been callin this late? its like 2 am and the dars all close at 10 in hell its a rule i made'" that line is my FAVoRITE they are lyrical geniuses.

AGREED
My favorite also but can't get others to like it as much lol
I absolutely love that lyric too
It's beautiful. Feels like it goes to show his dependence on "the devil".
It's rare that a song actually gives me chills, like everything about this song from the lyrics, to the grungey break at the end just blows me away everytime.
This is the song I've been listening to lately and to me it speaks to the levels of exhaustion I've felt trying to maintain friendship with those not worthy or respectful of my existence in their lives, so many showing they true colors these days
