- Summer, I painted a scene that lit the stars for me. Said, "I can erase it for you dear." That summer created those words that came to life in three. They were denied by you.
Summer I laid down below the glitter-adorned night. And silently sparkled my own way. Summer I laid down by you and shared my frail light. You gave the dark to me.
I looked inside to find the one I sent away
( I wanted this excoriation)
I nearly froze when I stepped inside to find
(I thrive on)
The flowers turned to gray.
( This self-mutilation)
I closed my eyes and kissed them one last time.
Summer a morning, so pale, alone when they found me. As I remained sleeping I heard them say, "This summer created a boy of abject misery." He was designed by you.
I looked inside to find the one I sent away
( I wanted this excoriation)
I nearly froze when I stepped inside to find
(I thrive on)
The flowers turned to gray.
( This self-mutilation)
I closed my eyes and kissed them one last time.
So like a lost child I will hide
(Now the world)
And like a lost lie
I will find a way to return to the ones who made me. Cover your eyes and we'll die together.
Will you cry for me? Will you cry for me? Or will you cry with me? Will you cry for me? Will you cry for me? Or will you cry with me? Will you cry for me? I've been a lonely one.
Will you cry for me? I've had this whole world drained from me. Or will you die with me? Will you cry for me? Am I the only one? Will you cry for me? I've had this world drained from me, drained from me. Or will you die with me? Summer, I painted a scene that lit the stars for me. Said, "I can erase it for you dear."
This is the version that should be on Spotify rn. 💔
My favorite band EVER!!!!! A F I !!!!!!!!!!
I downloaded like 47 viruses trying to get this song on Limewire back in the day!
hahaha, i remember that! and when Limewire didn’t work, Kazaa did 🤣
I remember hearing this and Reiner’s music when it first came out back then. Gave me the CHILLS. Still does.❤
Man, I remember when 336 came out. Hot Topic was brand new to our local mall where my cousin and I were complete rats, and as a result, it was slowly killing our favorite place which was the alternative store near the mall (walking distance with ease)... a little boutiqe or whatever called Beyond the Limit. At that store, years prior, I discovered an AFI album (VPOY) and loved the artwork and noticed it was on Nitro so Ibought it. I was hooked and bought everything I could find at that point (pre-internet I didn't have a million sources, and relied on Beyond the Limit and the record store next to it, Rolling Stones Records which was at this point only selling CDs). I didn't see AFI in Best Buy or anything. By Art of Drowning, which was in stores, I was just hooked completely and they were one of my favorite bands thanks to that little store I spent hours and hours at every time I went to the mall. Getting back to 336, I begrudgingly bought it from Hot Topic while I knew that their business used to go to Beyond the Limit (which lasted until Covid, amazingly). I played the two songs and they both reminded me a lot of something like A Winter's Tale which I thought was cool. I would go to a listening party (I think an early listening party-- it may have been exclusive to Despair Faction members but I can't remember, I just know I had this interesting "invitation" of sorts as it looked, with date/time/place and AFI insignias on it) in 2003 at Rolling Stones records (the place near BOTL) for STS which was unique, since I had never been to something like that before... II think the album may have leaked before that night, but it was still cool and the turnout was pretty insane... I mean, the crowd was unreal in 1999 when I saw them with at Fireside Bowl a day before my b-day, but by 2003 the interest was just nuts. Girls Not Grey being on the radio and TV probably helped a lot. Does anybody remember if they had listening parties for Despair Faction members with that album before release in your town? I can't remember if it was exclusive or something the store was just doing. I don't recall paying anything. But it was cool and made me realize just how big they had gotten in what seemed like a blink.
Wait what was 336?
@@mister.wednesday AFI's 8th EP, from 2002. Had 2 songs on it. Now The World, and Reivers Music.
the old days man, the best days, may the sunset last forever
love this blurb and love that I can return to such a personal deep cut song and read others’ AFI memories. They are such a special band and growing up as an AFI fan was such a truly special experience
@@teaspooooon shoot, I forgot to mention how I would constantly pause my Tony Hawk 3 (was it? Or maybe 2? Possibly even 4.... one of those, not the OG) to select a track and just repeat The Boy Who Destroyed the World. There was also a song by an aussie punk band called Bodyjar on there that I liked a lot, too.... I am pretty sure the same edition of THPS as The Boy Who Destroyed the World was one. Fun fact: bodyjar was on Nitro as well.
One of my great disappointments (haw haw) is not getting to see them in 2004 due to the nodes..... I saw them from the sidelines as a preteen and then saw them again in 2006 two nights in a row. The crowd energy was as good as I've seen it at the Vic theatre, which has a pretty awkward floor. It was nice to see them both nights since there was a few changes in the setlist for both. I believe on night $2 they played Rabbits Are Roadkill which was really cool.
haven’t heard this song in like 20 years, holy shit. totally forgot about it all that time, but listening to it now i know every word. still gives me the chills 🥀
This song will never die!
I’ve been playing this song tuned down since 2003!!!
20 years later and it’s still one of the best f***ing songs
true
@@loserlynnay
These Sing the Sorrow B Sides were too good.
It's besides,?? Now I see!! What the sounds it seems to be so familiar?? !! ✌️✌️🙏🙏✌️✌️🙏🙏
@@carlossandi4260yes. This song and Synesthesia were B-Sides on Sing the Sorrow
@@Crime_flies Too good , I have the sing the sorrow, since almost realesed in the lates 200'3. I was a child right back then,, how amazing times. For God sake!! I ✌️✌️✝️✝️🙏🙏💥💥
This will ALWAYS be my favorite AFI song.
The. CHILLS.
Which version do you like better?
@@BlueHouseSoundStudio the alternate early version of course! I thought the lyrics might have been a bit different here than the version i was used to growing up.
EDIT: had to listen to which version this was again, and THIS is the one I like better. I have it on vinyl with Reiver’s Music, but kept it sealed!
@@hella__allie this “art of ears” Andy Ernst version is for sure my favorite as well! Despite my hero being Jerry Finn who co produced and mixed STS. I believe this is one of the “older” songs they re recorded prior to STS as a test mix as shown in those now very old and unfortunately grainy pre RUclips STS production teaser videos.. man I wish there was more footage like that.
you are speaking my language
Out of all the AFI albums ,this one is your favorite song?
I am so greatful that this song exists
This better than the one on Sing the Sorrow.
Me too. One of their best songs :)
I'm right there with you brother!!!!??????
Me 2
Me too! The perfect demonstration of everything AFI
Why is this not on spotify
I think this was on a limited EP. I seen a couple on EBay.
Aliens or vnv nation
Screw Spotify, greedy bxxtards
It's too good that algorithms can't handle it
Now it is
Im so grateful this band exist
Such an amazing song. Chord progressions, overall structure, lyrics...it’s all completely brilliant
Can't believe they just played this in Houston!
I forgot how good this was!!! their EPs were loaded with sick songs! It's all on my old macbook and they don't have them on spotify, so they're fading away, thanks for bringing it back with this upload
Masterpiece.
As a combat Marine on Fallujah this makes sense. We live with the after effects.
man it took me forever to remember what this song is, glad i finally did
I remember buying this record that also had Reivers music on it. I didn’t have a record player so I brought it to my friends apartment and listened to it that one time and loved it. The b sides are all fantastic.
I will never get sick of this song 🖤
trying to hunt me down a copy of 336....only 2 songs but a killer 2 songs indeed!
Just snagged this on vinyl. It was about 30 bucks. Not bad
I'm more used to the other version of the song, but this was the first one I heard. It's so different to the one on Sing the Sorrow's UK edition, but just as good.
This song is kinda everything to be honest, damn.
Just a slight correction. It's:
"Will you cry for me? Will you fly for me? Or will you die with me?"
If I recall correctly, the other lyrics are of the STS version.
That's correct
Never noticed that actually
Actually it’s, will you cry for me? Will you cry for me? Or will you die with me?
@@typhoonluv4322 There's two different versions of that song and the lyrics slightly differ between the 336 EP version and the Sing the Sorrow UK version, as I recall. The lyrics I mentioned are of the 336 EP version, IIRC. The STS version leaves out "will you fly for me?" and has more "polished" production. Davey clearly says "fly" when he sings it here.
@@Sion6 that’s fine
If you cry for me
I’ll fly with you
And we’ll die together!
The definitive version!
incredible song!!
I just found out what the word 'excoriation' means. That's a dark line Davey 😞
10/10 ❤
This use to be jam back in 10th grade.
I always think... the 2 songs on 336 jus have this interesting feel to them, and I really wish they had made some more stuff that sounded like they do. I've had a love/hate relationship with STS as I loved it when it came out, played the hell out of it and had to go back a couple of albums to just get back into AFI again, and then kind of buried it for awhile but still liked to play demos from it and stuff like that... and I didn't hate it or anything, just had played it too much in a short period of time and I was getting into other hardcore bands that were coming along or getting bigger right around that time period as AFI was departing that style, which I was still heavily into. As I've gotten older and some of the early stuff almost feels too outdated for me, I am happy for STS and especially the demos I've always been in love with, all of which exist on here if you look around. T
But as I started off... the two songs from 336 just have this different feel to me for some reason.... I don't know if anyone else feels the same, but it's almost as if they represent and hold the place of this extremely tiny gap between Art of Drowning and Sing the Sorrow that didn't have much material or time for anything other than STS's stuff to be recorded. It was like a tiny moment and this sound just isn't really in any other period of AFI;s history, and I'll argue STS really doesn't sound like the 336 release, it's much more complex and it gives off a different feeling to me. Those two songs on 336 just captured something I haven't heard in anything else except maybe the demo for Synesthesia.... That demo actually sounds like it belonged directly on 336... A Winter's Tale has a similar style, but also feels like something from the AoD era.
I remember seeing the record was supposed to be limited to 5k copies or something, but that couldn't possibly be true... In any case, it's an era of AFI that seems to almost not exist. I assume a ton of songwriting and recording went on during 02 (I want to say I read an article where it's mentioned that STS had over 130 tracks recorded for it?.... Am I thinking of the right band and album here?).... 2002 was also a year they didn't seem to play live much, but the few shows out there that made it to youtube are unreal... I suggest anyone interested in this short period check them out. There's one ft. Nick 13 on here that has some insane crowd participation and good sound and video as a whole, so you're not listening to and watching something that was filmed and recorded with a potato.
I gotta go back and see when 336 was actually recorded. I can't exactly remember if it came out in late 2002 or sometime 2003, either. To me, it's like Art of Drowning and Sing the Sorrow having a kid. But the kid died really fast and STS was born. Not a bad thing, but I wish the kid had another year in between.
So much better than the album version.
Where did this afi go? Breaks my heart
This AFI?? Missing old AFI? Well this ain't it
@@HorrorBiz408 yes pre sts was good. Like at a glance and smile. Or you could throw back even farther to a single second. This secret ninja and file 13 are classics and atasf was my first ever cd. This song just happens to be my favorite.
@@glitch5251Definitely one of their hidden gems for sure
Way better than the Sing the Sorrow version.
Thanks for the upload!
Totally. Something seems missing from the STS version.
back to '02! Best version
I like these lyrics better than the changes made to the STS version.
Yeah, I always thought the STS version was the older one because it sounds so much shittier.
They really should've left it alone, it's amazing as is.
Who unliked this video? Really
Jealous songwriters/musicians who can't come up with an epic song such as this.
@@devanwoodruff7289 preach!!!!
I want this song to bad it’s not on iTunes
Thanks for the upload. Amazing song.
better than anything on that album lol
Man on some parts it sounds like the old school Davey! He still got it! Now he needs to jump on another Son of Sam album, please and thank you!
WILL YOU CRY FOR ME!!
Thats an amazing song! Thanks for share
the lyrics are just so good
They just played this right now in Houston 🥲
2:30 hits hard! "LIKE" if you agree!
Can anyone point me in the direction of purchasing authentic AFI records or eps
Bring it … from Santa Monica’s Mexicans
Put it on RUclips music and topic of this album please check it out
More clarity in the lyrics with this version
Wait for me
1 of the Greatest Punk songs i've ever heard: ruclips.net/video/cl5aEQIuKxQ/видео.html
My highschool years
back when afi was awesome
Make AFI Great Again
Open dress code
God how I love my emo music
Afi, Appleseed cast, circa survive, sunny day real estate
I hate life
Life can be unbearably hard sometimes. It is still a gift. It's only temporary too so might as well try..
@@aaroneckhoff1748 Im 23 and i turned to alcoholism over a 1 year period of time, i drink and get drunk almost every day now because it makes the nothingness of my life more tolerable, i dont see any achievable things for myself in the future, everything seems pointless to try and i loathe to wake up every day for many years
@@RandyOrlok I've wanted to die about a million times and I'm still here. You are still so young, You ARE capable of achieving many things! You also are severly depressed.. but you can get help and climb this mountain. Is your name not Warchief??
Imagine AFI making amazing albums like this again. Stuff after DecemberUnderground is....... not cool.
I liked burials.. not a fan of decemberunderground though, or the blood album either for that matter.
2:34
Blix
Such a horrible upload
pinnacle of afi
Been a fan for 20 plus years but I still crave for an album with the same energy as Now the World , reivers music and synesthesia..that brief sound between Art of Drowning and Sing the Sorrow is the perfect blend 👌
