    LYRICS
    Will they remember my name when I'm gone,
    (When they know what I did was so fucking wrong)
    Put the steel to my wrist, lost the breath in my chest,
    (Just to forget all the wrongs I had left)
    I took the exit, left my friends in the gutter,
    (Left my life right behind me, left myself, left it all)
    Left myself, left it all, not a falter not a stutter
    Not a note, and now?,
    (There's nothing at all)
    (Are you at all haunted by memories past?
    Are you ready to make this one breath your last?
    Is your chest so heavy you're ready to leave,
    Or are you hoping that some one will grieve?)
    And now we roll on...
    I'm gone now,I don't remember much,
    I just know that I would have been better off if I had stayed,
    spoken to a friend,
    (let my heart keep on beating and not given it all up)
    for the grave, for the grave
    There's no one on the other side there's nothing more than what I had.
    There's no ghost left to haunt you so you know I'm still here,
    just the end of my life nothing left here at all.
    (There's no memories here, just regrets of the dead),
    please don't follow my footsteps - cherish all you have left.
    (Are you at all haunted by memories past?
    Are you ready to make this one breath your last?
    Is your chest so heavy you're ready to leave?
    Or are you just hoping that someone will grieve?)
    There's no one there on the other side,
    (there's no one there on the other side)
    There's nothing more than what I had.
    (There's no ghost left to haunt you)
    There's no memories here (memories here)
    just the regrets of the dead (regrets of the dead)
    please don't follow in my footsteps (my footsteps)
    cherish all you have left.
    (Are you at all haunted by memories past?
    Are you ready to make this one breath your last?
    Is your chest so heavy you're ready to leave?
    Or are you just hoping that someone will grieve?)
    (Are you at all haunted by memories past?
    Are you ready to make this one breath your last?
    Is your chest so heavy you're ready to leave?
    Or are you just hoping that someone will grieve?)

    The censorship is fucking disgusting. The band is about raising awareness of issues like this and they fucking censor it like it's something to be hidden away from people. Anyone old enough to understand what they're referencing with the line "steel to my wrist" is old enough to learn about it.

      It can, but that's not what this particular band has focused on. The singer suffers with depression and they know people who also suffer with it. "Normal" people can have depression too, by the way, and "normal" people can enjoy the music without being depressed.

    "I wrote Chasing Ghosts as a narrative based wholly around someone that has committed suicide and has passed onto the other side. It's a story that I hope people will see for what it is; an example in song of why you should turn to someone close and talk instead of taking that last fatal step towards death prematurely. I just want to reiterate to people that once you're gone, that's it. There's no ghosts. There's no heaven, no hell, just finality and the wreckage left behind in the wake of their decision." - Joel Birch

      Arthur Williams scientifically the energy in your body would leave and dissipate into the surrounding area as your body decomposes, but their isn’t any evidence that consciousness or anything else remains from your life in that energy, or that that energy stays together by some mystical force. To each their own beliefs but so far nothing proves that anything “magical” happens when we die.

      The reason they censored it is so they cant be blamed or sewed for "promoting" people causing self harm as well as the other things they censored (i know its fucking stupid but its politics and people are fucking stupid get use too it). Its mostly too protect themselves but also too relay their point through music without completely removing it. Hope this clears up any confusion :P

Not what ever the genre for music is today, pop? Lol i dont even know, but they are fake most of them, builds fake worlds for the listeners, i understand that people do like that music and i understand why, but me personally i never like that type of music.

      @bourky93 9 лет назад +10

      Nickexp Well all songs have a message so that can't be the only reason you like it. People don't hear it in music like this if they don't already like it because all they focus is the screaming and that's perfectly fine. Same reason you probably don't hear the messages in music you personally don't like because how can you hear it if you're too busy thinking about how much you don't like it?

    • @Nickexp

The growler singer is for the boys in the audience and the singer who holds the actual melody is just singing some canned shit that might as well be autotune. Big ol meh from this ol dude...

    The first song I heard by The Amity Affliction which helped me from what I was going through because of the chorus in the song which I feel like the band is asking me about my depression: Are you at all haunted by memories past? Are you ready to make this one breath your last? Is your chest so heavy you're ready to leave? Or are you just hoping that someone will grieve?, I chose the right decision of moving on with my life, so I'm happy that my depression is gone.

These songs are not about screwing and using people but about finding yourself when you are lost and showing people that no matter what you are not alone. It's truly amazing to come to the comments on some of these song and to just see that strangers are reaching out to others to let them know they are not alone! this band is amazing and so are you guys!

    There is something nostalgic in those 2012 times when i was young and depressed, wanted to die, often cut my arms and face to blood.. and found this band. I'm 28 now and this is still my favourite band and my top 1 track. And i'm still depressed, just kinda learnt how to live with it. But somehow i want to travel back, i want to feel that again, don't know why. It felt so heavy and emotional back then, it was so true. Please, let me be young again. Let the Amity Affliction be young again.

      That hits home dude. I am same age as you and still depressed like I was as a youth, just gotten used to living with it. I think we've become increasingly resistant to the overwhelming emotional feelings over the years. Like a waterfall that beats on a rock for years and shapes it. I reckon it's super unhealthy for our everyday life to be this used to feeling down, our baseline emotional level is lower than it should be. I think we will have massive regrets if we stay in this state throughout our 30s aswell. Goodluck dude

    I turn 18 in 2 months and I want to say that I probably wouldn’t have held on this long if it weren’t for the message of this song. I found this song when I was 12 at the prime of my emo phase and well when I first met depression. My depression has been an off and on type of thing, I’ve almost attempted suicide but then I’d listen to this song. I didn’t want to die, I just wanted a different life without all the pain. I’m still struggling now especially since 2 weeks ago I got out of this toxic relationship and it damaged me a lot. He was very manipulative and I lost parts of myself trying to please him. I felt insecure about some stuff he said but then he’d get upset with me for expressing my thoughts. I’m finding myself again and healing at my own pace. Seriously though I was supposed to die in my mind before I turned 18 because I didn’t think I’d make it to my 18th birthday. It’s still August right now, but I hope I don’t die before October.🖤

    I just absolutely cannot stop listening to this song. I freaking love how much Ahren is jamming out to the song with all his spins and kicks! Makes me just wanna get up and hardcore dance lol
