see, I was born the second child
with a spirit running wild, running free
and they saw trouble in my eyes
they were quick to recognize the devil in me
see, I was born a restless child
and I could hear the world outside calling me
and heaven knows how hard I tried
but the devil whispered lies I believed
can you hear it hanging on the wind?
can you feel it underneath your skin?
you've got to go on, further than you've ever gone
you've got to run far from all you've ever known
you've got to run far from all you've ever known
The anthem of all second children.
TrueImmortality I just realized I'm a second child lmao. The middle child to be exact lol
TrueImmortality so true thank you I'm a second child
Yup
@@XxAzureNekoxX Same bro
Truly💙. I happen to be the second child, and only girl, out of 5 children. I’m pretty wild and restless.
Hits hard when your a second child that wants to be free but cannot because of personal circumstances. This is also why I love fantasy/adventure things and why this band is my favorite. ❤
I’m the first child but I relate to this so much ❤ It’s like me and my younger brother flipped the “restless child” because he’s the second born.
Luke 15:11-32, where the song is based around if your wondering
i'm the prodigal older child, but this is so true for me with that perfect younger sibling. great song.
So we are two
Thank god I'm not the only one.
Same lmao :p
Same here Kristin. But the song also makes me think of an adventure. Traveling through an open plain on horse back
Me too
The Second Child, also known as the forgotten child, especially if also the middle child.
middle one here :p
Rae Thomas Middle one here too! :')
Rae Thomas yep! Same here!
First one here :00
I’m the oldest of three, and sincerely hope my brother doesn’t grow up feeling like that
I'm the second child. And this song really touches my heart. I was indeed born wild and free and a little devil in all my mischiefs. I am ready to leave to see things from places far away from home
I just found this song today but DANG it hits me hard!! Im technically a third child (2 older, 1 young) but with there being such a big age gap between me and my older siblings i was always treated as a middle kid with all the responsibility of the older. They use to get in trouble a lot so there was a ton of pressure for me to do well and help out, but i was always the restless one. Id devour books and daydream about going off on "adventures". Even now with all my responsibility, college, work, relationships, I get this urge to just drop EVERYTHING and run off
Oh by the gods, I can relate to this a lot. I thought I was the only one with a situation similar to yours.
That’s Literally me!
I relate to this so much
Yep. I'm in much the same position, I'm just younger and actually the second child of three. Coming up on highschool's end, and I just wanna run off and become a druid
Bro that's me I'm also a middle child with a big age gap
this is an anthem to all second children. I'm 15 and ready to get out and see more of the world. I know this sounds weird but at this point I'm okay with being the second everything and the forgotten one and the restless one and the second important. it makes me independent and not rely on anyone
How you doing now?
ur 20 now :) how’s it feel
how are you doing now? I'm currently in the exact same scenario 😅
Hope you are doing okay, maybe you will see this video again ^^
I’m 21 now and absolutely thriving!!!
"they were quick to recognize the devil in me" hits me the hardest. i am the second child, and where my older sister was calm, i was energetic and wild. a lot of the adults around me disliked me because of how "wild" i was. i distinctly remember my aunt hating me, always picking on me and ive turned into an adult with basically no will to live
I'm the opposite of this. First child, never wanted free and wild and running away, always chosing safe and staying exactly where I am.
I'm also the oldest, but I'm treated a lot like your stereotypical middle child. I just can't wait to finally explore the world
Damn that's kinda hit hard
same
Same-
For me its more like "only child, lonely child"
@@Roseberry606 "It's called an only child, DW. A lonely child is what you'll be when I sell you."
As a second child, who is most definitely restless (I have ADHD) and who did, in fact, grow up in a catholic influenced household, they did see the devil in me, and seeing as I can hear the world outside calling me, this song hit HARD
This song reminds me of the prodigal son, it would be his reasons for running away, "wishing well" would probably be about his regrets for leaving his father's house and "in memoriam" about him returning to his father's house
thats the entire album, the entire album follows the prodigal son
I'm always the second child, born second second choice second best second one to be given help, I know these are kinda selfish things to ask to just be first for but it can really kick my ass sometimes
Yeah it would be nice not to have the standard and the comparison to your older sibling.
For all those who forget to read the description and go straight to the comments for the lyrics:

Thank you :)
How sweet of you
Ouch you called me out, but thank you!
thank you.....
You know me lol thanks!
i love how this album is a song series for the parable of the two sons, you guys make the most unique christian songs i have ever heard (especially by the lyrics because they are rare topics) and i am in love with you because of it!
This actually hits so hard, i am a second child and a free spirit
Come to think of it, i too am a second child. I understand it. My older brother got to run while i was stuck. Besides the gender stereotypes, i was never really treated differently than my brother; but since he was older, he could run.
But i can run now, too! I need to stop thinking about things so much and get out before i get stuck for good. Cause I CAN hear the world outside calling me. I can hear it hanging on the wind, and i can feel it underneath my skin.
I've got to go on, further than I've ever gone.
I've gotta run far, from all I've ever known.
I’m an only child, but I’ve always felt like how middle children did because my parents were always very busy. I had a few close friends who became close to “siblings”. We’ve stayed friends for years, and promised to put up with each other no matter what. Anyways, I was always a very “wild and free” type of kid. Never wanted to sit still, constantly wanting to cause trouble, craving attention, etc. This song just hits so close to home. I still love to run, and to push my limits as far as I can.
Finally found another only child - I've been looking through all the comments trying to find someone!! My parents were always busy too - it's weird feeling like you have a lot of attention and none at the same time lmao. I was a really restless, cheeky little kid as well, always up to something... :)
All rise for the national anthem of middle children.
Hello. Middle child here. I just wanted to thank you guys for writing a song for all of us. Really means a lot, you know. We're usually ignored...
i agree, im the middle child and sometimes you just have to give your best to get recognized
@@carl-hugokleynhans8903 It's weird, right? I lived most of my life bein like "middle child syndrome isn't real, it's all in my head", but man...it's definitely out there. So weird.
I'm my mother's firstborn, and this applies to me too well! Always running ahead and getting lost. My little brother has always been the more tame of us two 😄
I was born the first child
I have no siblings
Live is boring
me
Same XD
Same-
only child pride XD
You are lucky to not have siblings. They are the worst little creatures.
This song makes my heart feel full. I’m the baby of the family and I’ve always felt somewhat different from the rest of my family- mostly due to my differing interests, but I’m moving out of my shithole town into a dorm in a large city soon. This song gives me hope, especially the last lines.
I hope you were able to find community there! 💗
I found this song yesterday, and let me tell you guys. This is my ADHD anthem now.
This song describes me almost to the letter (only difference is I'm the oldest sibling haha). I've always wanted some good grand adventure, some fantastical opportunity. Im a fan of forests and ideal cottage lives and castles crawling with ivy. But I was taught as the oldest to be grounded and sensible, so those dreams got shot down real quick haha
Any second child will know how eerily true these lyrics are...
this song is a wonderful representation of the story of the prodigal son. i had always seen it as a reflection of myself, since i was also a second child eager for change and adventure, while my brother, the first child, exceeded everyone's expectations and seemed to need nothing.
but i was doing a bible study with some friends the other day, and we were all talking about the parable of the prodigal son and saying which brother we related to more. and true to the story, it seemed like most of the first children related to the older brother, who thought he was so much better than his brother since he didn't run away. while us second-born children felt more with the prodigal son, the second child, who rebelled against his father's best wishes and made a fool out of himself. (obviously this isn't EVERYone's experience lol, but it seems to be true more often than not.)
he did try to be a good son, but his wild spirit got the best of him. he succumbed to the adventurous promises of the world outside, even when he knew better. and it got him to the pig sty.
and i know that, because i've been there. i was that restless child, and i still am. but i'm learning to put that wild spirit to better use than i did before.
I'm technically the youngest, but my brother (the actual middle child) is special needs, so I was basically ignored growing up... I can sympathize with middle children
I can relate to that except I am the oldest. You basically are a mere shadow when a sibling has special needs.
I am the oldest child in my family, but my parents have always payed more attention to my siblings, always favor them over me, and are always much more lenient with them, so I can relate to most “second children” I guess
I think it’s mainly because my brother (who’s the actual middle child) is literally perfect at everything. He gets good grades, is great at sports, is generally an obedient and good kid, and makes tons of friends no matter where he goes.
@@promethanol4162 same, except it's my sister. I'm more hated than forgotten with my household family, and my brothers forgotten.
Same here! I think the song isn't specifically about the order the child was born, but like the one that is always the second option.
I'm the oldest out of me and my brother who is autistic and while I haven't necissarily been ignored, there have been nights where helping me with homework has been set aside to deal with meltdowns or I haven't been able to do something because it would mean he would have to be dragged along to something he wouldn't be able to do.
Cheers to any people with siblings who have special needs, it's a rough life that not many really think about and that sucks.
Very much a middle child song. I think every middle child can relate to this!
The only reason I clicked on this was because I am the second child and the restless child but Goddam this song is good.
This is what me discovering my journey as witch feels like
I’m writing a play atm and this song fits my protagonist to the TEE like I can’t explain how perfect this song is
I’m the second child, and damn right I’m restless!
My brother is a second child and this song definitely describes him. Oh Hellos never disappoint
oh wow, I never knew being the second child was so bad. My older sister is the second child but she is treated the exact same as my older brother and me (the youngest )
Yeah, it's probably just a bunch of people whining in the comment section, self-identifying as 'forgotten' just because mommy and daddy weren't 110% as excited about their first day in primary school as their older sibling's. Most probably had a beautiful childhood with loving parents, but oh, they ran into a song on RUclips, so that changes everything!
I don't know a single second (or middle) child that feels unloved, forgotten or unwanted. I myself am a firstborn, but my younger brother is mentally disabled, so it's not like I ever got more attention than he did. And we're both very happy with our parents.
@Socksonat3am oh gosh yes, this sort of stuff was such a downer... My sister had a massive party for her 16th and my parents have preemptively told me I'm not getting one at all bc it's too difficult...
I swear,good songs are always underrated at first.
I was born a first child, yet this describes me perfectley!
My older sister sent me this song. and it touched my heart, I never really related to a song before until now
As the second child of 5 kids this describes me perfect.
Im ready to head out,live,fight and explore while the firstborn is clinging to childhood.
My parent's always knew I was the crazy one.
This song is so inspiring for the story I want to write!!
as the second restless child, THIS SLAPS MAN!
I can’t even describe how happy this song makes me. Thank God for this group and their music.
#secondchildrenrule 🤘🏼
Since everybody's naming their fandoms.... Young Eda, anybody?
dsmp 👀
^ 👀
What is it with sibling duos and songs like this? XD
Holy shit.
OMG YESSSSS! I LOVE YOUNG EDA AS THIS SONG. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I AM SO DAYDREAMING ABOUT THIS NOW
Instantly reminds me of my dog.
Man my life is weird 🤣
As a foster sibling I've gotten the vibes of small family, big family, oldest, youngest, and definitely the middle child. One of these days I'll be out on my own, and then I'll be the only child 😈
And yes, this means I plan on never growing up
as a middle child, i approve
Yesssss a song about meeeeeee finalllyyyyyy
this is my new favorite song now (coming from a second child)
i am the second child, and i am the odd one out amongst my whole family, so this song hits home :)
Finally a song i can call my own
I'm the second child. I spend every second I can in the woods exploring and I always put on this song
This song is totally Bilbo Baggins, oh my.
i love this comment !!!!
Oh shoot I was here for Maglor, hello fellow tolkien fan!
Totally agree with Bilbo Baggins, but I also thought of Kili
@@eggben5610 I heard this for the first time in a Kili mix on 8tracks like 6 years ago LOL
I've always been wondering, i was the first child I've dreamed and had nightmares, lost in mind and lost in reality, dragons never seemed bad, knights always seemed cool, the forge is where i want to be, i want to shape metal and create universe's, always I've wondered and I'll continue till yonder
I’m a sixth child, but non the less am I restless and wild, this song truely is amazing
I’m the second child, my spirit ran free and they saw too much trouble inside my eyes while my feet pounded in time with my heart and against the ground in the celebration of life and courage that would challenge them. They broke my spirit but I, so many years later, am now reclaiming it
middle kid of three here, grateful i don’t relate to this too much, but it still hits hard
I really like this song it reminds me when i go to camping with my friends
I'm the fourth child but this song still applies to me very well.
This song reminds me of my great aunt Jean. The first time she saw me, when I was a baby she said "clef in the chin devil within." So they quite literally were quick to recognize the devil in me.
I love the adventuring and travel vibe this song has.
This song has been in my head and I couldn't for the life of me remember what it was called
Holy crap I love your music you make me relaxed after a day of school I Liston you all the time have a great day or and night and everyone have a nice life ♥💞💕
First child here, can't wait to be free
I'm a third child, but this song still applies to me so well...
Same
As a second child, I approve
Perhaps all of God's children (being the forgiven sinners) are kind of second children to Jesus, in a way. But unlike the father's oldest son in the prodigal son parable, Jesus, alongside God, welcomes us back with open arms.
that’s an interesting perspective
As a second child diagnosed with ADHD, I completely relate to this song.
This made me so laugh XD
Technically, I'm 4th kid, but we were born in sets, which means I'm second of the second! (which means I'm forgotten) I have a spirit "runnin' wild, runnin' free"! It's cool because Maggie Heath sings it, and out of her and Tyler-the two siblings that make up The Oh Hellos-she's second.
I’m not a second child but this song reminds me of my younger brother in a good way :)
I found this song just before I sent my uni application, and now I'm going as far away as I can. I think this hit a bit hard
Yes just yes ❤❤❤❤❤
Day 34 (?): this song reminds me a lot of my brother he moved out as soon as he turned 18 and never really showed emotion or affection even at our grandfathers funeral when he knew him better than I did. Yesterday he hugged me after I had a brief moment of paranoia and locked myself in the bathroom and I just???? It felt reassuring? I suppose. My mother always said he genuinely cares for me but I didn’t really know it?
The hug was kind of like the nail in the coffin in a good way
I love my brother
“See I was born an only child,”
Second child, so true.
I've just never been sated with this small town small world
I’m the first child of my parents together, but both of them had one child before me, though my mom never got to raise her own. Sometimes I worry I disappoint them; I’m certainly not what they expected, not who they wanted me to be! But I will give all I have to the world who has been so cruel and so kind.
I may be the youngest but hearing this song reminds me so much of my sister. It's literally her in a nutshell.
Only child here. Song still fits to a tee!
My dad was the youngest of six, my mother has an older brother I’ve never met, and I’m the older sibling to my little brother. I’m kind of in a strange reverse situation because I’m the only oldest sibling in the family of youngest siblings. Because of that, there is a definite bias towards my little brother that my parents don’t have the ability to see, or just refuse to see. It’s this somewhat ironic situation where I’m the one who’s overlooked instead. I may be the firstborn, but I can’t help but find this relatable. It’s just tiring sometimes.
Anyone want to run away with me?
heard this on tiktok and instantly recognized The Oh Hello's
True, true, true, and not speaking about myself...sorry sis! ;)
Djeezz why did I only discover this band of sibblings now??
They are sooooo awesome!!
This is interesting to me as a first child who was always the forgotten child, the restless child. I dont care so much now as i have my friends and i like being alone its just interesting.
I am the second child, the second daughter and my parents always treated me like that, I was born for don’t annoy anyone, in my parents eyes I’m perfect and the good child.. I just want,even for a second, to be free
I'm the second child, with dreams of moving to Missouri and starting a farm. I want to live completely off the land one day.
Honestly I really relate to this song
Even though I’m the oldest I still feel like I’m falling behind since by brother understands things easier at this rate he’s gonna have a job before me
I’m the oldest, my brother is 5 years younger then me and this song honestly describes him so well
The fact I was born a second child and fit exactly into this. idk how to feel but I like the song
So glad to have found your music
this screams ivypool to me tbh
Gabby. Challenge accepted ;))))
Oh definitely. I can see it at squirrelflight too
IMMA MAKE THAT HAPPEN NOW
kinda hollyleaf or breezepelt too
Same!! It reminds me of her so much!! I've actually been working on some frames! I'll post it on a different account though.. stay tuned!
i'm not a second child but i relate to the rest of the lyrics
Read the False Prince from the Ascendance Trilogy!!! This song is literally made for one of the characters
I knew I wasn't the only person.
@@shojodraws3399 it is so good and underrated, i mainly see Sage/Jaron in this song
Yep, second child. Wanna run and adventure and start a family to see me and my family in
This is my little man. Daddy luvs u
I love this Song; )
Day 17: it’s late but I made pop corn with a random spice I had and it was so good made my nose run though lmaoo
I also Talked to my friends a lot
I was born the first child, but me and my younger sister share the same fates. Usually Im left out of things lol
I may be the oldest kid, but I've always wanted to run away, roam free, see the world and have adventures
i love this song
I'm my fathers second child amdy mothers first, but she raised her youngest brother, so I feel more like a second to her
im the middle kid in a bunch of triplets. also, the troublemaker of the family.
finally, an anthem for my creed!
Gracias
❤❤❤❤❤😊
