Come on man you don't have no expiration date on your toe it's only you and the Lord the miracles happen every day don't let the doctors kill you by they get my brother the wrong medicine that dissolves in his liver instead of his stomach you're paying attention because these doctors are killing people remember the schools the doctors the prisons about like the same anymore wake up
Cancer treatments for 3 years, waiting everyday to die, depressed, worthless and in constant pain. Your music got me through some really dark times. 🤘 I'm here still fighting 💪
Although I myself havent fought like you but my 19 year old son has been fighting lymphoma stage 4 cancer w 6 sub catagories of BS so the drs are literally making it up as they go. Stem cell transplants graft vs host disease tons of immunotherapy jesus I cant even list it all, it's been painstaking to watch and fight along side of him. But hes a constant inspiration his head is held high and when he cant hold it there we battle for him... I hope and pray you have someone there to help you fight to keep u going... If not hmu if be happy to.
My husband is in ICU on life support. Played this for him & he tried to open his eyes. He has severe pneumonia & gone septic, Allen needs all the prayers he can get 🙏🏼EDIT: sadly, after 3.5 weeks in hospital, he passed. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your prayers & love. It means the world to me. The sun still shines & I’m in a better place of healing than I thought possible. You guys are true heroes & I love you all
This song was played at my son's funeral 2 days ago. It literally means the world to me. It is my connection to him, between our two realms of existence. To me, Sully is a gift from God and I pray that he continues to shine his light upon the world for years to come. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Do you ever feel like you're shaking apart inside and just up and fly away and never be seen or heard from again somehow it's that storm inside of me that you're able to come down and keep me from falling to pieces simply by saying sleep with the angels baby I love you forever
I have LOVED this song from the moment it was released. I play it on my phone ALL THE TIME!!! It gives me hope. And I am so proud of them for their commitment to humanity.I am 76....this song helps me relax. Diane
My husband played me this song (for the 1st time) while he lay in a hospital diagnosed with Stage 4 Renal Cancer (spread to brain & lungs). Fast forward a yr & a half....When things are rough & I question whether OUR LOVE is strong enough to endure, this song makes the answer to that question VERY CLEAR!! "You're everything that feels like home to me". To Herman, Keep fighting ... We got this. I LOVE YOU BIG ♥️. #KickinCancer 🧡🧡
Melissa Anderson my best wishes. Made me cry when I read this. My heart is very sensitive. Many come out my eyes for you. Much love and great passion for you.
Seeing this song performed live hits so much differently. He dedicated this to all those fighting a silent war and trying to survive. Brought this grown man to tears.
This song knocks me down, but I use it when I really need to cry. I lost my husband of 21 years in July 2017 to a heat stroke. He was 47, and when I miss him on days like today, it feels like 9/11 in my soul. I fight Bipolar II and borderline and PTSD daily..As weird as it sounds, I like to listen to this song over and over until I'm cried out, and I can turn to a happy memory of us with our kids and grandaughter.
Dear whoever is reading this, I may not know you. But i care about you, you may not be here for a good reason, however please trust me it will pass soon. You will be loved, people do love you. Reach out. You will heal. Sometimes all it takes is a little time. You are worthy. Edit: Thank you for so many likes and responses. This is a true resemblance that kindness matters, and sometimes people just need to be reminded of their worth, or to keep fighting. Be a reason for them to fight. You are worthy and loved, let's show those around you, the same love. Too much time and effort is spread into hate, yet kindness costs nothing
We need more considerate people out there like this Thank you for stepping out and trying to reach others out in social media.!!! I pray and trust it will cross the soul in their exact moment of reading that there's another out there who feels driven to reach others !!! One Selfless act....
@@queen_mommas_auntietriciabear Unfortunately to many times to count. Hopefully it helps guide people through the dark place their in. And to help shine a light within that dark place, as it did for me
@@rockydisney622. All I pray is that it helps sooth the pain or steer a path for a better state of mind and give people hope. And reasoning that there is still a reason to fight. Even when it feels there's nothing more to give ...
I’m probably their oldest fan. I’m 74, love heavy rock, and will till I’m in my grave. If I’m ever in the hospital not responding, put my headphones on and blast the good tunes and you’ll find out if it is possible for me to respond to anything.
love it ....62 here ..and last august 2nd and 3rd wasmy initiation with marilyn and rob zombie with john 5 -next night I cried as I was disturbed with sound of silence -recording it live in portland ,,,and them this discription of myself by godsmack... wow what ive been missing ... glad to join in !!
This song was my girlfriend’s favorite song. She took her life 2 weeks ago this song will always remind me of her. She was everything that felt like home to me. I wish she was still here right beside me. I still feel broken but I will miss her and cherish her memories forever and a day. Rest in peace baby (update) thank you so much to everyone showing support to me just a few kinds words from strangers have absolutely restored my faith in humanity. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart
Met Sully in person 10 yrs ago. I was 2yrs sober at the time. Down to Earth kinda guy. Long story short, it led to a new outlook on Spirituality for me. Thank you Sully. You effected that housekeeper more than you'll ever know!
I survived a massive stroke. And my body recovered like a miracle, however i lost all of my emotions. Therapy and all sorts of music could not help me.....until this song came by (and i didn't knew Godsmack).....I broke and could not stop crying! Thank you for giving back an important aspect of my life not only for me but my entire family. God Bless you all guys 🙏♥️
@@joesphjoesphson8262 that all depends on the individual person and their stroke. For some people, yes it can make them more emotional. For others, they might lose some or all sense of emotions and just be monotone (lack of a better word) when it comes to things that would normally excite or sadden them. It all depends on what part (s) of the brain it affects and how severe it is.
All these comments brought me to tears and reminded me again that no matter who we are, we each have our own individual battles, traumas and scars. Today I celebrate 17 years with with my soulmate, the man who saved my life and who is everything that feels like home to me. At 60 and 63, we both have our scars, but they compliment each other and I thank God every day for bringing him into my life!
@@karagrace3221 his still alive his in the hospital and am his son I am planning on starting a go fund me to raise money for him here’s my number if you would want to help cause we need all the help we can get
This is my favorite song on the planet. I lost my beautiful, sweet, gentle husband to suicide in 2002. He was and is "everything that feels like home to me". Nothing will ever be the same. I wish more people, including myself, had been aware of the signs of his pain and been more vigilant in making sure he knew he was treasured beyond what he could possibly imagine and that he was certainly NOT ever alone in his journey with bipolar disorder and PTSD among other diagnoses. I loved him more than my next breath. The Scars Foundation is vitally important in raising awareness for so many people in need of UNDERSTANDING in so many areas. Thank you for caring. And to my love, may you finally rest in peace, beautiful angel. You were most definitely imperfectly perfect.
I am so sorry for your loss. They're are alot of Men out there and I am really saying real Men. I am having a hard time right now with my wife. She has been drinking to the point I don't know who she is anymore. I devoted this song to her on Facebook and she never said anything. I'm deeply hurt . Yes as a real true Man I'm hurt 💔. This song did it for me , but I guess not for her. Sorry to hear about my problems. I hope you have peace and happiness and will 🙏 for you.
You brought tears to my eyes I'm so sorry for what you have gone through. Time will heal the mind but never the heart I pray you find peace in this world and live for him.
Battling drug addiction since I can remember.. I dedicated this song to myself. I could not stop listening to it over and over. I lost me. Somedays I could feel pieces of me because of this song. I LOVE the lyrics, music, voice- all of it!! Clean now for 69 days. This IS my song. I love it more than ever before. What a beautiful and powerful gift you give this universe, thank you!
Congratulations! Everyday is a blessing in that world, been there. You got this man keep pushing even on the hardest of days always know that day will end soon and a new will arise!
Keep pushing baby noone will have your back like you will keep yourself strong to do that. You've got ppl rooting for you no matter what. Just keep pushing no matter what happens. Much love ♥️
I love everyone here & the ones who are gone. The comments….. Sully…… the song……. There’s just no words, only tears, sad & happy. I remember when this was first released & I couldn’t play it enough. I’m so glad it has deep meaning to so many others. I just want to hug you all & you too Sully. There’s nothing like the human touch & the people who get it. God bless ALL of US‼️🧡
Literally, cry every time I hear this song. I miss my wife so much. She's been in an assisted living center ever since she had heart surgery and they do not allow visitors due to COVID. She is everything that is home to me. I miss her smell, her touch, the taste of her salty lips on a hot summer day. I have never in my life felt a feeling as strong as the love I have for that woman. I never knew you could actually feel pain in your soul until she was taken from me in such a way that I can not see or touch her. We use pictures and texts to keep in touch, but it isn't the same. After 16 years of a very happy marriage, I could not imagine my life without her. If there is an afterlife, If there is a God, and they have any power at all - my only wish would be for them to never take her from me again. I miss you Honiny. I will love you until the time of times end.
tell me about it, i love this song a lot though my reasons are a bit different than a lot of other peoples, but that just proves that music is a universal language.
Pain is universal. To be understood is visceral. To have both is a dream. No one really ever stands alone, no matter how it seems..bless the broken, guide the vengeful, fruitless pasts wanting tomorrow's forgiveness. Peace in loss isn't about acceptance, or forgetting. It's the strength to feel, again, and again. The unknown is a fear so many don't have the chance to have. Thank u for letting Gary's daughter speak here. For me, and my dad, who I can not get back..yesterday made me, I have today, not granted tomorrow. Reach in, reach back, no regrets.
My husband is my hero. I have suffered from mental illness most of my adult life. Tomorrow is our 31st anniversary, and in all those years he has loved me in my worst times, even times when I was doing so much to destroy both of us. Now, he truly IS everything that feels like home to me! Thank you for your music and your compassion. You are a great bunch of guys!
I can relate for sure. My husband of 26 years was like you and the one thing that we really related to before the song started was when Sully quoted Our imperfections make us perfect! May you and your husband enjoy another 31 years. Please don't stay mad long forgive quickly and love unconditionally. You want that peace if either one of you leave this world without a say. From the beginning to the end is what we said to each other instead of sorry or that or I wished we said before he left unexpectedly. We were perfect as your husband and you are, no regtets!
@@cd7670 Thank you for your comment! We have both dealt with addictions ib each other. After this many years we don't drink or drug-got to be my first choice every morning. I make better decisions sober!
"You're everything that feels like home to me. yeah" That's the killer right there. Instant tears. Everyone wants a love that feels like Home. Home is where you want to be. Home is safe. Home is what you miss when you're gone.
My wife and I got married on September 23rd of 2023 and we danced to this song at our wedding. So whenever I think of this song I instantly well up with tears of love and joy
I'm a U.S. Marine Veteran and find comfort in this song... it chases away the PTSD demons. Countless times I lost the will to continue the fight in life, this music has grounded me in a broader perspective... life is not a narrow vision, it expands as far as we allow ourselves to invest in it and experience it. Love to all!!
Hey @robrettig1079 I'm not a veteran, but I can relate to those PTSD demons. I went through a shocking and traumatic event and every day I experience triggers that bring me right back to what had happened. So here's to wishing you wellness and recovery that one day your demons will no longer haunt you. Peace, Bro.
@Barredeux fear, is the beginning of torment, don't give in to it, it is satans #1weapon against us...the only way a human can overcome fear, is thru submission, to The King of Kings, and Lord of Lord's, Jesus Christ...I grew up in an alcoholic family, I have seen fear and pain, but thru Christ, I am made free...let Him help you🥰 John 3:15-17 my precious son, is a Marine, I LOVE our military and our country 💙
I was diagnosed with depression/anxiety after 30 combined years in the Marines (bomb disposal) and law enforcement in Los Angeles. When I listen to these lyrics I don't feel so alone. Thank you
Thanks for your honesty♡ I also have to share that the main reason I don't feel alone today is solely bc in earlier sobriety ..(years ago) I too didn't feel isolated and lost. Still today I confess 😪 I feel that way ONLY bc Ikw others are still sick and suffering from this nefarious disease and while in NA/AA meetings.... i remember feeling at home .Take good care of yourself♡ brother!!
I just wanted to thank everyone for their support! We all have demons...some worse than others. Reach out to friends or family when you're going through tough times. If you can't find anyone, write me here. I'm always here and sleep with my phone on. I'll talk to anyone, anytime.
Thank you for protecting and serving us even though it came at such a tremendous sacrifice. I hope if you ever read this it conveys my sincerest gratitude. 🙏🇺🇸
Last round of chemo today. Your music has been a constant in my life through good times and bad. Thank you for all you do. BLESSED BE! #STRONGERTHANCANCER
Blessed Be! You have inner strength & courage to survive all that. I've a chronic version of a rare disease, Brucellosis. Been isolated at home long b4 the latest plague. Music of all types has been a constant thru the good, bad, ugly, & psychotic as long as I remember. Stay strong!
Agreed! I remember getting their first album and being seriously disappointed and never looked back... Lately I've been giving them another try because I was honestly surprised to find out they were still making music! I gotta say, they have most definitely gotten waaaaaay fuckin better. This song is amazing!♥️
This song reminds me of my mom. She’s been through so much these past years. From having such an abusive family to a abusive narcissistic husband. She stayed strong all these years, for me and my siblings. She loves Godsmack, and my dream is to make enough money so we can go to a concert together. I love my mom so much, no matter what happens. She’s fought for my siblings, doing everything for us. I’m so sorry mom that you’ve been through this, I love you so much momma. Any teen, please go tell your parent(s) you love them. You never know what they’ve done to keep you here. Thank you Godsmack, for everything. 🫶
May you be able to get to a show. There were special prices Tix for only $25 in San Diego for this show last month! And it was amazing. Try even to just get lawn seats if nothing else somewhere....they are usually always affordable. Prayers for your mom and you.
Our scars are our battle wounds. Be proud of what we have been through and stay strong to survive. This song is our anthem. Scars are a permanent reminder of the pain we endured but battle we have won. God Bless- Godsmack your music tells the story. John - Cape Coral, FL
Depression sucks.! your doing well and bam it hits you .people have good intentions but man up or just put on a smile don't help. Hopefully your scars foundation educates them as well as people like me. I'm 58 ,music is my medication without it and especially this song I don't I would be here to write this. Thank you.
Damn. This hits hard. As someone who has struggled with anxiety, depression, and loneliness, these lyrics dig deep. However, I keep on going and am pushing myself forward, one day at a time. I know it will get better. Always have hope.
Wow. I mean. Wow. Am 65 yrs young and this just blew me away! Now THIS is RocknRoll with heart ❤️👍🏻🤘🏻👍🏻 Badass and also make you tear up. Awesome and thank you!!! ❤️
My Name Why thank you very much! ❤️ Might need to change my you tube name....cause am a female 😂 But thats cool...get it alot! Beat em at the 1/4 mile and circle track and ohh. The remarks. 😂 Thank you again and that song just touches your soul...🥰
I just turned 62 and I rock out to these guys everyday! I like my rock hard and very loud!! I may be a geezer but this geezer knows great music when she hears it!!❤❤❤
Youre no geezer- you keep rocking it!! I carry my music everywhere I go - w/a speaker, not ear buds! And I ❤ it when those around me gravitate to my tunes- from good, hard rock... to a classic disco beat... It's the best therapy on earth- it makes us FEEL- & it keeps us "old geezers" rocking our way through the LONG DAYS & the SHORT YEARS!! Rock on Baby!!🤘🥰😉
This song gives you hope that there is light at the end of whatever tunnel you may be facing. Very touching song which moves my heart everytime!! This song gives stength and hope.
I remember listening to Godsmack when I was a kid. As I'm listening to this song now, I don't feel confused, I don't feel alone, and I don't feel unworthy. A place I never thought I'd live to experience. Thank you Godsmack❤
I'm somehow just now discovering this gorgeous song. The lyrics perfectly describe someone who recently backed out of my life to figure out his own. We each have our scars, but we were so right for a while, and we were good for each other. I miss having him beside me so much and hope the universe brings us back together, even if it's just for a little while longer.
The best performance ever! Never stop playing this song. Sully wrote a winner when he wrote this song. It touches all walks of life because everyone has scars of some kind. Counting me. Keep up the great work Sully Erna and Godsmack!
It's sad when someone has been searching for themselves and as found as they are their still lost. Absolutely breaks a person's heart. Is acceptance truly ever enough for some bless them
I am with You both in prayers even though they fall short of a difference, I still hope the best My brother...Cherish whatever time is left for all We have are the memories in thee end ❤
The wife and I lived with cancer for over 20 years I feel for you and yours I ain't going to lie I love to say gets better I lost my wife only 9 years I'm praying for you and and yours
This song gives me chills everytime that I listen to it. I was abused by my brother for most of my life and no one would believe me. Not until I found a wonderful woman who sat and listened to every word that I had to say. What she told me really blew my mind and shook me to the core. It helped me stand up to my brother and stop the abuse. I have survived far more than most ever could of and I hope to use what I have learned to help others who are suffering in any similar way. I do the best that I can with what God has given me on the inside.
I'm so sorry about your abuse, my brother abused me since I was very very tiny. I never let it affect me. I never think about him. If you ever need a friend, please feel free to hit me up.
My dream in life is to start a non profit out reach for kids 10 _ 25. I have so much to give. We All need that ( hey.. you are so loved. Just the way you are.)) I pray on this full moon night. God will guide us. We can do anything, though him
@@christinagalley1017 I have never told anyone about the many things that I have been through. You both just gave me hope that I may find a person, time, place that will help me release the pains I hold inside. Bless you both and Godsmack, for the message received so clearly Today. Blessed be.
Under your scars allowed me to show my love of 23 years that I am there for her. I am a disabled veteran with PTSD. I am broken physically and mentally and she is my rock. This song creates peace to me.
Same for me but for different reasons. This 56yo man was diagnosed 7-8 years ago with bipolar. I was always high functioning, that extra energy helped me achieve a lot actually. But then I hit a point where it became a liability. Idk, midlife crisis, just changes in the body and mind with age, stressors with a kid with severe problems, who knows? Point is I became a selfish asshole. She put up with 5-6 really bad years, gambling, coke, younger women...all of it. But she stuck it out with me. I dunno how she did it, but now I appreciate and love her again. She truly takes care of me and I know I couldn't do it alone. I was new to Godsmack, I heard this and it made me think of us. She's not a hard rock or metal fan but I played it for her. Beautiful.
I'm disabled & in a wheelchair due to me a accident. The depression is soul taking some days. I 💗 this song. It's def comfort to me. My husband is the best thru everything...... PTSD controls my life...... Thank you for your service. 🤍God Speed
The quote at the beginning is probably one of the most..... I'm not even sure how to say it. It reaches out and touches you. We all have those thoughts, and knowing that there are other people out there that feel that.... then seeing that, lets you know that everyone is who they are, no one is perfect, and honestly perfection isn't something that should be strived for. We are amazing who we are. We are not alone, and everyone is imperfectly perfect. Everyone is who they are, ever changing... don't change just because someone else wants you to, change because YOU want to. Thank you Sully and Godsmack for being who each of you are.
This song is so inspiring. It has really touched me. I suffer with depression. On dark days this song makes it better. Thanks from the bottom of my heart
I have been with my husband for 28 years. I put him through hell during my addiction. He saved me. I never for a minute doubt his love for me. For that I am blessed.❤
Been there am still there. 11 years. Trying to remake the connection. But the spark never brings light. I've been the problem. Still can't fix me or us. Happy times happy times...
Angel Walker that is what true love is about. Sadly I’m suffering from clinical depression and started abusing my meds and when I needed my wife the most, she cheated on me and left me for another man that she never met in person. It’s very hard to find true love and someone that will put up with you on bad times
I Lost My Veteran Son To Suicide in 2011 Godamack was one of his favorite group..I Fight joining him Everyday but I know I need to be here for my other 2 children and my grandkids ~ this song hit me deep the first time I heard this song I fell to my knees and balled my eyes out...To anyone who is contemplating suicide please take one step at a time and know that you are not alone..even if you feel like no one cares,the Suicide of someone is a domino affect it will affect ones for the rest of their lives you would of never know..you have people that care even if you cant see them at the moment..we are all here for each other no one will be better off with you gone..you have a purpose here even if it's to touch one persons life..you are important you have value you are needed..tell.your story someone is going to need to hear it...you are an overcomer Your story Hasnt ended ;;; We love you and need you
I just read your words and thanku,I've got rock bottom I'm depressed anxiety guilt by choices I made,I'm just existing daily,your words touched me because I feel so lonely worthless,but thanku again
I lost my love KIA in 2006 and almost joined him for a good while. Stay strong! I know it's hardest on the parents, not the partner. We have to keep going though. It's what they would want for us. I'll keep strong too. ❤️🔥
Such a great feeling to go through everyone's life story in the comments, it's amazing to see how deeply people connect to the music in their own way. God bless you all!
Makes me cry everyone I hear this . Been left with scars that are deep and painful . Praying for strength to move forward .....💔 Prayers for all going thru their own battles....
How have I never heard this song until today?! Very powerful, very moving, I love the song and the message. The comments really bring home how powerful music can be. To anyone struggling out there I’m praying for you, I’m pulling for you and things WILL get better! Anxiety wrecked me for many years until I was led to great coping techniques through a lot of answered prayers. No matter what your challenge is, don’t be ashamed to seek help. May God bless you all!
"You're everything that feels like home to me" I was diagnosed with cancer March 24th, 2020. May 7th.. I beat cancer. Cancer is tuff, but I am tuffer!!
My son was going through a difficult time. Hopelessness. This song became part of a playlist I made for him. Thank you for these beautiful words. He's grown up loving GODSMACK.
Look I had a cousin who frfr was like brother kill his self this June be 23 years and I'd give heaven and earth for him him to be here cuz sometimes u just need someone that don't judge yr ass .. and this keeps me from joining him .. js
There was a time about 12 years ago, give or take a couple years where they were one of the biggest bands on the planet, then all the poppy bullshit took over because we allowed stupid people to keep fuckin and reproducing and now we have beiber
Mark Payne I was going to say in the early 2000’s it was essentially Godsmack, Linkin Park, Slipknot, Korn, Limb Bizkit, System Of A Down, etc. that ruled the culture.
Sufferings usually result in and lead to the purest and deepest ART of a human being. I don't think you can make something touching like this without it.
I've lived on this earth 34 years. Every day for 17 years I've fought suicide. It's funny that I first heard this on Sirius XM a few year ago, and rather go for nostalgia, this hit me harder than anything. Suicide is an option when being strong too long has failed. We all hurt but I keep coming back to this song, I keeps me alive.
Every single song that this band produces has such a powerful meaning and impact .. when Sully sings it’s seems like he is actually singing to your soul .. this song is the epitome of just that ✌️every song is a true masterpiece and strikes a chord with me .Thank you Godsmack for reaching out of your heart and producing it thru your music you guys are AHHH-mazing❤️🔥
Godspeed Godsmack for doing something positive with the fame and fortune you have been greatly blessed with. You are thankful and that's a big start. from a servant of Jesus
I think of my ex-wife whenever I hear this. She had so much trauma buried. She left when it all started coming back. The more I tried to help, the more she pushed away. I I love her so much. I hope and pray she gets the help she needs.
Did the same thing to my husband. I won't bore you with the details but I was sold to a cult by my mother at 14 and it was a set cult so I don't have to tell you how much that f'ed me up. Byv the time I met my current husband, I had been married twice he was number three. I did everything I could to screw it up. I lied, betrayed, emotionally cheated, drugs, men, left, and divorced him twice. He took me back every time. He was my third marriage and we've been marries to each other three times now. Don't give up on her. I finally got the help I needed... because he didn't give up on me. Be there for her, support her. She will eventually get it.
Oddly enough im thinking of my ex husband and come across your comment. We were inseparable until he lost his dad and that was the end of him and to this day he hasn't dealt properly with the loss. I tried for years to help and it wasn't enough because he didnt want it so i had to let go because the cheating is something i just couldnt keep forgiving putting me at risk for disease and harassment from whoever he decided to sleep with. He was a totally different person after his dad passed like i didn't even know him anymore. Im better than that and deserve better and so do my kids. We have kids together and they see him every other weekend but thats it. No calls, no co parenting no nothing and thinks living with someone 10 years younger is what will "fix" him while letting her dictate his life. Mind you hes a grown "man". Any female who doesn't allow a man to be in his kids lives more than every otber weekend is no woman to me yet he allows it. Its actually sad. It kills me to see my kids without a daddy but it was best for my sanity and im double the mommy though it still hurts today nearly 6 yrs later. I truly hope your ex finds their way and gets the help she needs and finds her way back to you atleast to show you she did it id not to continue your life as one!
I'm sure she knows how much you care. Sometimes those of us who are broken have a impossible time receiving love and help from others. Perhaps the two of you will find your way back to each other. Blessed Be.
This song hits me so heavily. Driving across town 3 years ago, staying with my parents as my marriage abruptly crumbled out of nowhere with this song playing in the car. I still remember that day...
I understand I didn't see it coming and she went straight no contact so I'm still trying to figure it out. She said she just needed some time but it's been 9 months. When she didn't send so much as a card on my birthday last month I finally accepted that she never intended to return I was fairly certain when she changed her# but I guess I was still holding out hope. She was a birthday nut, I never gave a shit before and I guess I will probably go back to not giving a shit again. The one person I let see my scars has left the biggest ugliest scar I have
Incredibly powerful song. How many of us are shooting stars in the rain under our scars? This song gives strength to our human spirits that is desperately needed. I am a Godsmack fan for life.
🙌💝👌🌈 Saved me tonight hearing this for this for the 2nd time tonight, PTSD , Trauma started at 15, & being convinced your own scars make you unloveable are a recipe for darkness. I want to thank Godsmack 👌💜🌈
Music is capable of sometimes even healing and getting rid of the impossible pains we feel! GODSMACK is definitely one of the greatest out there and they deserve more credit than they receive!
My husband played me this song in the car about a week ago for the first time! We’ve had our problems and I’ve put him through a lot, he played this FOR me. Brought me to tears. 💙 Under your scars I pray, you’re like a shooting star in the rain, you’re everything that feels like home to me!
I really appreciate all your lovely support and encouragement towards my work. I’m very grateful and thankful to have you as a supportive fan that cares so much❤️😘😍✅💕🙏
Lyrics: Do we make sense, I think we do In spite of everything that we've been through Oh and you say black and I say white It's not about who's wrong As long as it feels right Don't think those stars won't align Under your scars I pray You're like a shooting star in the rain You're everything that feels like home to me, yeah Under your scars, I could live inside you time after time If you'd only let me live inside of mine Live inside of mine Wish you were here Right beside me So I could watch you sleep Hold your body closer, breathe you deep And everything feels broken When you're not next to me Would you still be you If we weren't we Under your scars I pray You're like a shooting star in the rain You're everything that feels like home to me, yeah Under your scars, I could live inside you time after time If you'd only let me live inside of mine So hey, if you feel like coming down If you feel like coming around Just call my name out loud, na, na, na Hey, if you feel like coming down If you feel like coming around Just call my name out loud, na, na, na, yeah Under your scars I pray You're like a shooting star in the rain You're everything that feels like home to me, yeah Under your scars, I could live inside you time after time If you'd only let me live inside of mine Live inside of mine
Wow.. I don't have words but amazing . These guys have been around and got better and better with time . Can't believe anyone would thumbs down a powerful song like this!!
I have suffered sexual abuse, drugs and alcohol, 53 years old and finally on the right track and I am at peace with myself.....Wearing my scars with pride....
I have emotional scars too, along with physical scars, from people I've loved with all my heart. I can truly empathise with you. May your tears of pain be replaced with rainbows of hope. 🕊🙏🕊
I recently lost my fiance to an overdose on August 13,2021. This was always our song and it brings tears to my eyes and tightens my chest everytime I hear it, along with a few of Sully's solo songs. I want to thank you for touching our lives both while he was physically with us and beyond, cause I can feel his arms around me and wiping my tears. So, thank you for keeping us together yesterday, today and always.
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my wife of 10 years on April 10, 2021 to addiction. I carry the scars of pain and loss with me but I know underneath them is a fighter, someone who will not give up and live life. Just remember with the fight of dealing with your loss you will have scars.....but underneath them is a wonderful person, a fighter, and someone that will not give up. Be strong, don't give up and know that your fiance will always be with you, watching over you and still loving you.
My husband has Parkinson's and was addicted to pain pills and then to heroin. He has been clean since 2016 but now we are dealing with this. I'm so sorry for your loss. So sad baby. 💞 to you.
Oh so sorry. Addiction is so horribly sad. I hope your heart and soul is healing! Reach out to family/friends everyday for comfort. It really hurts when they leave us. I lost two boyfriend's from 2016 to 2021 for the disease. I still have anxiety. We all need each other for support. You are not alone 💖
I’m 63 and have a terminal illness, probably about 6 months to live, I love this band! It comforts me to listen to good rock music.
So sorry to hear that, hope you enjoy your last days mate !
Prayers for you
You are loved. 🙏💙
Come on man you don't have no expiration date on your toe it's only you and the Lord the miracles happen every day don't let the doctors kill you by they get my brother the wrong medicine that dissolves in his liver instead of his stomach you're paying attention because these doctors are killing people remember the schools the doctors the prisons about like the same anymore wake up
I just saw your post. I'm so sorry. How are you doing, it's been 2 months since you posted. I'm praying a miracle has happened for you. Hugs.❤
Cancer treatments for 3 years, waiting everyday to die, depressed, worthless and in constant pain. Your music got me through some really dark times. 🤘 I'm here still fighting 💪
I beat cancer 3x it's grueling ,under bearable pain at times , but I fought and beat it and so can u .stay positive
Keep fighting the good fight, you are an inspiration
Sorry for ur cancer wish I could take it away tell KK I said hello
Keep fighting.
Although I myself havent fought like you but my 19 year old son has been fighting lymphoma stage 4 cancer w 6 sub catagories of BS so the drs are literally making it up as they go. Stem cell transplants graft vs host disease tons of immunotherapy jesus I cant even list it all, it's been painstaking to watch and fight along side of him. But hes a constant inspiration his head is held high and when he cant hold it there we battle for him... I hope and pray you have someone there to help you fight to keep u going... If not hmu if be happy to.
My husband is in ICU on life support. Played this for him & he tried to open his eyes. He has severe pneumonia & gone septic, Allen needs all the prayers he can get 🙏🏼EDIT: sadly, after 3.5 weeks in hospital, he passed. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your prayers & love. It means the world to me. The sun still shines & I’m in a better place of healing than I thought possible. You guys are true heroes & I love you all

Songs like this makes All the hard work, WORTH IT!
Thank you, brother
This song was played at my son's funeral 2 days ago. It literally means the world to me. It is my connection to him, between our two realms of existence. To me, Sully is a gift from God and I pray that he continues to shine his light upon the world for years to come. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
sorry to hear about your son, hope you're doing alright.
I'm sorry about your son 😢 he sounded like a good guy r.i.p brother
Shine the Light on for your son!
Feel u
So sorry for your loss
Once in a while a song comes along that gives you hope and faith in humanity. This is one of those songs. Thank you, Godsmack.
Yeppers
I miss you watching me sleep I miss feeling safe in your love
Do you ever feel like you're shaking apart inside and just up and fly away and never be seen or heard from again somehow it's that storm inside of me that you're able to come down and keep me from falling to pieces simply by saying sleep with the angels baby I love you forever
but in reality there is no hope in humanity, great song though
เพราะ
I have LOVED this song from the moment it was released. I play it on my phone ALL THE TIME!!! It gives me hope. And I am so proud of them for their commitment to humanity.I am 76....this song helps me relax. Diane
You must have 1 hell of a great connection between a subconscious mind, & a very adaptive awareness in your soul.
You look way young ❤️
68 and just hearing this band first time OM Good God...amazing words...Keep On Rocking!!!

God bless me too
I love this song when my days are dark there is 🕯️
My husband played me this song (for the 1st time) while he lay in a hospital diagnosed with Stage 4 Renal Cancer (spread to brain & lungs). Fast forward a yr & a half....When things are rough & I question whether OUR LOVE is strong enough to endure, this song makes the answer to that question VERY CLEAR!! "You're everything that feels like home to me". To Herman, Keep fighting ... We got this. I LOVE YOU BIG ♥️. #KickinCancer 🧡🧡
Melissa Anderson my best wishes. Made me cry when I read this. My heart is very sensitive. Many come out my eyes for you. Much love and great passion for you.
Your comment touched my soul... I wish you and your husband the very best...God bless...
Much love and strength on your journey.

May he find the strength to carry on in the presence of you who he loves. I hope both of you are doing well.
Seeing this song performed live hits so much differently. He dedicated this to all those fighting a silent war and trying to survive. Brought this grown man to tears.
Bless your heart x
I thought someone was cutting onions in here😢
This song knocks me down, but I use it when I really need to cry. I lost my husband of 21 years in July 2017 to a heat stroke. He was 47, and when I miss him on days like today, it feels like 9/11 in my soul. I fight Bipolar II and borderline and PTSD daily..As weird as it sounds, I like to listen to this song over and over until I'm cried out, and I can turn to a happy memory of us with our kids and grandaughter.
Same hear.i cried seeing this live
Kyle didn't know that. Thanks for sharing. Now wonder I like it so much.
Dear whoever is reading this, I may not know you. But i care about you, you may not be here for a good reason, however please trust me it will pass soon. You will be loved, people do love you. Reach out. You will heal. Sometimes all it takes is a little time. You are worthy.
Edit:
Thank you for so many likes and responses. This is a true resemblance that kindness matters, and sometimes people just need to be reminded of their worth, or to keep fighting. Be a reason for them to fight. You are worthy and loved, let's show those around you, the same love. Too much time and effort is spread into hate, yet kindness costs nothing
Thanks
We need more considerate people out there like this
Thank you for stepping out and trying to reach others out in social media.!!!
I pray and trust it will cross the soul in their exact moment of reading that there's another out there who feels driven to reach others !!! One
Selfless act....
Bret thank you for that comment. It sounds like for me that you've been down this road before.
@@queen_mommas_auntietriciabear Unfortunately to many times to count. Hopefully it helps guide people through the dark place their in. And to help shine a light within that dark place, as it did for me
@@rockydisney622. All I pray is that it helps sooth the pain or steer a path for a better state of mind and give people hope. And reasoning that there is still a reason to fight. Even when it feels there's nothing more to give ...
You guys have helped me thru the good and bad. To the point of stopping me from ending it you are life savors
I’m probably their oldest fan. I’m 74, love heavy rock, and will till I’m in my grave. If I’m ever in the hospital not responding, put my headphones on and blast the good tunes and you’ll find out if it is possible for me to respond to anything.
Love it man!
You are my hero!
Beautiful response. I love them as well as my favorite band 311, Badflower, and so much other great music. Music is so healing.
love it ....62 here ..and last august 2nd and 3rd wasmy initiation with marilyn and rob zombie with john 5 -next night I cried as I was disturbed with sound of silence -recording it live in portland ,,,and them this discription of myself by godsmack... wow what ive been missing ... glad to join in !!

Goose bumps... After reading a bunch of these comments, I'm reminded there's still a ton of good people in this crazy world. Thank you all.
Thank you!!!
Word!
What a great comment!
Beautifully said
People are good don’t let the world tear us apart
This song was my girlfriend’s favorite song. She took her life 2 weeks ago this song will always remind me of her. She was everything that felt like home to me. I wish she was still here right beside me. I still feel broken but I will miss her and cherish her memories forever and a day. Rest in peace baby (update) thank you so much to everyone showing support to me just a few kinds words from strangers have absolutely restored my faith in humanity. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart
@cjbeck7198 hang in there brother, praying for you
My heart goes out to you brother.
Music and love has no boundaries like age colour religion its a feeling emotions
Been there too.peace brother.
My heart goes out to you.
I am a 57 year old mom with teenagers and just discovered this song. Gives me chills when i listen to it. His voice is just amazing!
46 I think lol with grown babies and a grandson found this "accidentally". But Godsmack is amazing
Yeah amazing😢
@@kellicampbell6646 you're right
62 and love this song father of 3 popo to 6 life is good
Hang in there... teenagers are rough lol❤
As a combat veteran, time does not heal all wounds. It’s ok to not be ok. Be honest about what’s in your head. You are loved.
time doesnt heal.
Thank You for Serving our Country!
thank-you for your service and sacrifice
I know what you mean brother. It never heals just gets a little easier to cope.
No it doesn't i can still hear the screams everytime i lay down or when i close my eyes
Met Sully in person 10 yrs ago. I was 2yrs sober at the time. Down to Earth kinda guy. Long story short, it led to a new outlook on Spirituality for me. Thank you Sully. You effected that housekeeper more than you'll ever know!
I loved when I read this. In the rain , cold. These words give hope for some reason.
Amen
I survived a massive stroke. And my body recovered like a miracle, however i lost all of my emotions. Therapy and all sorts of music could not help me.....until this song came by (and i didn't knew Godsmack).....I broke and could not stop crying! Thank you for giving back an important aspect of my life not only for me but my entire family. God Bless you all guys 🙏♥️
I needed to read this. Thank you🧡
you realize this isn't a Christian song fuck your god bless
and you my friend are a true survivor - go out, celebrate your 2nd birthday with your loved ones
That’s the most beautiful story I’ve heard in a long time. Thankyou ❤️🇦🇺
@@joesphjoesphson8262 that all depends on the individual person and their stroke. For some people, yes it can make them more emotional. For others, they might lose some or all sense of emotions and just be monotone (lack of a better word) when it comes to things that would normally excite or sadden them. It all depends on what part (s) of the brain it affects and how severe it is.
All these comments brought me to tears and reminded me again that no matter who we are, we each have our own individual battles, traumas and scars. Today I celebrate 17 years with with my soulmate, the man who saved my life and who is everything that feels like home to me. At 60 and 63, we both have our scars, but they compliment each other and I thank God every day for bringing him into my life!

This song has helped me through my PTSD after my time in the military. 20 years later I am still fighting my demons. this music is great.
We appreciate you and everything you've done to keep us free my brother.
Listen to Amon Amarth Into the Dark and thanks for your service
Keep fighting the good fight my friend. We are all glad that you're still here!
Appreciate your service
Thank you for your service, my dad served 24 years. Stay strong!
This is my favorite song on the planet. I lost my beautiful, sweet, gentle husband to suicide in 2002. He was and is "everything that feels like home to me". Nothing will ever be the same. I wish more people, including myself, had been aware of the signs of his pain and been more vigilant in making sure he knew he was treasured beyond what he could possibly imagine and that he was certainly NOT ever alone in his journey with bipolar disorder and PTSD among other diagnoses. I loved him more than my next breath. The Scars Foundation is vitally important in raising awareness for so many people in need of UNDERSTANDING in so many areas. Thank you for caring. And to my love, may you finally rest in peace, beautiful angel. You were most definitely imperfectly perfect.
I am so sorry for your loss. They're are alot of Men out there and I am really saying real Men. I am having a hard time right now with my wife. She has been drinking to the point I don't know who she is anymore. I devoted this song to her on Facebook and she never said anything. I'm deeply hurt . Yes as a real true Man I'm hurt 💔. This song did it for me , but I guess not for her. Sorry to hear about my problems. I hope you have peace and happiness and will 🙏 for you.
May God give u strength and hope.
You brought tears to my eyes I'm so sorry for what you have gone through. Time will heal the mind but never the heart I pray you find peace in this world and live for him.
I'm sorry
Stacey Kelly awwww I’m so sorry!! I’ve had 3 cousins commit suicide. It’s horrific. God bless you. ❤️
Battling drug addiction since I can remember.. I dedicated this song to myself. I could not stop listening to it over and over. I lost me. Somedays I could feel pieces of me because of this song. I LOVE the lyrics, music, voice- all of it!! Clean now for 69 days. This IS my song. I love it more than ever before. What a beautiful and powerful gift you give this universe, thank you!
Congratulations! Everyday is a blessing in that world, been there. You got this man keep pushing even on the hardest of days always know that day will end soon and a new will arise!
Youre amazing 🤩 this is my favorite song also ❤
Keep pushing baby noone will have your back like you will keep yourself strong to do that. You've got ppl rooting for you no matter what. Just keep pushing no matter what happens. Much love ♥️
We're here on borrowed time. Keep your head brother. I'm with ya.
You got this, you are worth it.
I love everyone here & the ones who are gone. The comments….. Sully…… the song……. There’s just no words, only tears, sad & happy. I remember when this was first released & I couldn’t play it enough. I’m so glad it has deep meaning to so many others. I just want to hug you all & you too Sully. There’s nothing like the human touch & the people who get it. God bless ALL of US‼️🧡
We love you too!!! I wish for nothing but the best for everyone!!! God bless you and God bless the United States of America!!!
I totally agree with everything you are saying ( and feeling).❤❤❤
Literally, cry every time I hear this song. I miss my wife so much. She's been in an assisted living center ever since she had heart surgery and they do not allow visitors due to COVID. She is everything that is home to me. I miss her smell, her touch, the taste of her salty lips on a hot summer day. I have never in my life felt a feeling as strong as the love I have for that woman. I never knew you could actually feel pain in your soul until she was taken from me in such a way that I can not see or touch her. We use pictures and texts to keep in touch, but it isn't the same. After 16 years of a very happy marriage, I could not imagine my life without her. If there is an afterlife, If there is a God, and they have any power at all - my only wish would be for them to never take her from me again. I miss you Honiny. I will love you until the time of times end.
James Miller I am so very sorry......I pray you get to see your wife soon.....this is a beautiful song.......stay strong
You'il be together very soon 🇧🇬🤟🙏🤘
That is beautiful! ♥️
What a fantastic band! ♥️
Oh my God! That made cry. I totally agree about this song, It’s fantastic.
Stay strong ❤️
It's crazy how a song can touch so many people in different ways. Thank you for the music you make 💜
tell me about it, i love this song a lot though my reasons are a bit different than a lot of other peoples, but that just proves that music is a universal language.
It touches me so deep in my old soul
Such a powerful song. My husband died 10 months ago and I feel nothing inside. I'm holding on because of beautiful music like yours. Thank you ❤
Listen to HIM- Heartache Every Moment, In Joy and Sorrow or any other song by them, gets me through the day.
Sorry for your loss. Please hang in there. I hope things get better and in time, I think they will.
Соболезную вам. Музыка помогает... держитесь ❤
I'm so sorry. Keep holding on babe
Be strong. You are a warrior
Pain is universal. To be understood is visceral. To have both is a dream. No one really ever stands alone, no matter how it seems..bless the broken, guide the vengeful, fruitless pasts wanting tomorrow's forgiveness. Peace in loss isn't about acceptance, or forgetting. It's the strength to feel, again, and again. The unknown is a fear so many don't have the chance to have. Thank u for letting Gary's daughter speak here. For me, and my dad, who I can not get back..yesterday made me, I have today, not granted tomorrow. Reach in, reach back, no regrets.
My husband is my hero. I have suffered from mental illness most of my adult life. Tomorrow is our 31st anniversary, and in all those years he has loved me in my worst times, even times when I was doing so much to destroy both of us. Now, he truly IS everything that feels like home to me! Thank you for your music and your compassion. You are a great bunch of guys!
I can relate for sure. My husband of 26 years was like you and the one thing that we really related to before the song started was when Sully quoted Our imperfections make us perfect! May you and your husband enjoy another 31 years. Please don't stay mad long forgive quickly and love unconditionally. You want that peace if either one of you leave this world without a say. From the beginning to the end is what we said to each other instead of sorry or that or I wished we said before he left unexpectedly. We were perfect as your husband and you are, no regtets!
@@cd7670 Thank you for your comment! We have both dealt with addictions ib each other. After this many years we don't drink or drug-got to be my first choice every morning. I make better decisions sober!
"You're everything that feels like home to me. yeah" That's the killer right there. Instant tears. Everyone wants a love that feels like Home. Home is where you want to be. Home is safe. Home is what you miss when you're gone.
Cheers Deb, well said!! I cant get through this song without shedding a tear.
I had that. But like everything good it's gone now.
Well said :)

very lovely
I'm a U.S. Marine Veteran and find comfort in this song... it chases away the PTSD demons. Countless times I lost the will to continue the fight in life, this music has grounded me in a broader perspective... life is not a narrow vision, it expands as far as we allow ourselves to invest in it and experience it. Love to all!!
Hey @robrettig1079 I'm not a veteran, but I can relate to those PTSD demons. I went through a shocking and traumatic event and every day I experience triggers that bring me right back to what had happened. So here's to wishing you wellness and recovery that one day your demons will no longer haunt you. Peace, Bro.
God Bless You Buddy! Life Is Wonderful!
JESUS, is the only one that can conquer them, scripture
@SUNSHINE-bf3bw You've obviously never had anything extremely traumatic happen to you/
@Barredeux fear, is the beginning of torment, don't give in to it, it is satans #1weapon against us...the only way a human can overcome fear, is thru submission, to The King of Kings, and Lord of Lord's, Jesus Christ...I grew up in an alcoholic family, I have seen fear and pain, but thru Christ, I am made free...let Him help you🥰 John 3:15-17 my precious son, is a Marine, I LOVE our military and our country 💙
Godsmack, you stood with me at my darkest times when no one else did, you have my eternal gratitude for that.
Still listening in October 2024 ! One of my favorites from this band.

I was diagnosed with depression/anxiety after 30 combined years in the Marines (bomb disposal) and law enforcement in Los Angeles. When I listen to these lyrics I don't feel so alone. Thank you
Thank you for serving your a great leader. And I will keep you my prayers
Thanks for your honesty♡ I also have to share that the main reason I don't feel alone today is solely bc in earlier sobriety ..(years ago) I too didn't feel isolated and lost. Still today I confess 😪 I feel that way ONLY bc Ikw others are still sick and suffering from this nefarious disease and while in NA/AA meetings.... i remember feeling at home .Take good care of yourself♡ brother!!
I just wanted to thank everyone for their support! We all have demons...some worse than others. Reach out to friends or family when you're going through tough times. If you can't find anyone, write me here. I'm always here and sleep with my phone on. I'll talk to anyone, anytime.
Thank you for protecting and serving us even though it came at such a tremendous sacrifice. I hope if you ever read this it conveys my sincerest gratitude. 🙏🇺🇸

The most underrated band ever. So much more than what they get credit for.
I love Sully!!!!
They are an amazing live band. Best concert I have ever gone to hands down.
So True!! One of the best bands out there..
Agreed 100%%%%%%%
Underrated? How is being one the most successful bands ever.. underrated? Do you even know what music is? Because that's an idotic statement
Thank you,Sully. This song is so beautiful. Just thank you, I have no words. The feelings I are beautiful memories. ❤️🤘
Only : YES ❤❤❤
Greetings from Germany❤
Godsmack actually got better as a band with age. Loving their new music.
That very much the truth
Agreed! I remember getting their first album and being seriously disappointed and never looked back... Lately I've been giving them another try because I was honestly surprised to find out they were still making music! I gotta say, they have most definitely gotten waaaaaay fuckin better. This song is amazing!♥️
Nah, loved all there music since I was 12, voodoo pussy bitches

@@Dainith All there music, huh? LMFAO
This song reminds me of my mom. She’s been through so much these past years. From having such an abusive family to a abusive narcissistic husband. She stayed strong all these years, for me and my siblings. She loves Godsmack, and my dream is to make enough money so we can go to a concert together. I love my mom so much, no matter what happens. She’s fought for my siblings, doing everything for us. I’m so sorry mom that you’ve been through this, I love you so much momma. Any teen, please go tell your parent(s) you love them. You never know what they’ve done to keep you here. Thank you Godsmack, for everything. 🫶
She has a place in God’s heaven for all her sacrifices. I’ll pray for her and all who love her. Amen 🙏
May you be able to get to a show. There were special prices Tix for only $25 in San Diego for this show last month! And it was amazing. Try even to just get lawn seats if nothing else somewhere....they are usually always affordable. Prayers for your mom and you.

Our imperfections make us perfect.
I have always said that .
Thank you Sully . You Rock xoxo
One of the best songs ive ever heard! My favorite line in the song..."Dont think those stars wont align" 💜
Sully really needs to make an extended version of this song. This masterpiece is too short to fully experience. ❤
Our scars are our battle wounds. Be proud of what we have been through and stay strong to survive. This song is our anthem. Scars are a permanent reminder of the pain we endured but battle we have won. God Bless- Godsmack your music tells the story.

Damn. This hits hard. As someone who has struggled with anxiety, depression, and loneliness, these lyrics dig deep. However, I keep on going and am pushing myself forward, one day at a time. I know it will get better. Always have hope.

Absolutely! I listen to it every day it never gets old!
One of the best ballads I heard in a long time. Great band. 🤘
My older brother died of cancer at 35 and I’ll be 39 this year. This song help me a lot to this day to remember him.
I remember listening to Godsmack when I was a kid. As I'm listening to this song now, I don't feel confused, I don't feel alone, and I don't feel unworthy. A place I never thought I'd live to experience. Thank you Godsmack❤
Amen 🙏 to that!!!😇
I'm somehow just now discovering this gorgeous song. The lyrics perfectly describe someone who recently backed out of my life to figure out his own. We each have our scars, but we were so right for a while, and we were good for each other. I miss having him beside me so much and hope the universe brings us back together, even if it's just for a little while longer.
The best performance ever! Never stop playing this song. Sully wrote a winner when he wrote this song. It touches all walks of life because everyone has scars of some kind. Counting me. Keep up the great work Sully Erna and Godsmack!
He wrote it about Lady Gaga
@@bblemon219 That is good to know. Thank you.
It's sad when someone has been searching for themselves and as found as they are their still lost. Absolutely breaks a person's heart. Is acceptance truly ever enough for some bless them
Just found out my 36-year-old wife of 17 years has cancer. We will fight with every ounce of energy your music means so much to us. Thank you.
I am with You both in prayers even though they fall short of a difference, I still hope the best My brother...Cherish whatever time is left for all We have are the memories in thee end ❤
The wife and I lived with cancer for over 20 years I feel for you and yours I ain't going to lie I love to say gets better I lost my wife only 9 years I'm praying for you and and yours
@@khristophertaylor3718 Thank you.
@@joshrabatin Thank you. That is a lesson that I am being to learn to enjoy the moments and make memories.
Thinking of you and praying. God bless you and your dear wife.
This song gives me chills everytime that I listen to it. I was abused by my brother for most of my life and no one would believe me. Not until I found a wonderful woman who sat and listened to every word that I had to say. What she told me really blew my mind and shook me to the core. It helped me stand up to my brother and stop the abuse. I have survived far more than most ever could of and I hope to use what I have learned to help others who are suffering in any similar way. I do the best that I can with what God has given me on the inside.
prayers to you
I'm so sorry about your abuse, my brother abused me since I was very very tiny. I never let it affect me. I never think about him. If you ever need a friend, please feel free to hit me up.
My dream in life is to start a non profit out reach for kids 10 _ 25. I have so much to give. We All need that ( hey.. you are so loved. Just the way you are.)) I pray on this full moon night. God will guide us. We can do anything, though him
@@christinagalley1017 I have never told anyone about the many things that I have been through. You both just gave me hope that I may find a person, time, place that will help me release the pains I hold inside. Bless you both and Godsmack, for the message received so clearly Today. Blessed be.
@@angelavandoorn6813 Angela, I will lift you. I'm willing to be your friend
Under your scars allowed me to show my love of 23 years that I am there for her. I am a disabled veteran with PTSD. I am broken physically and mentally and she is my rock. This song creates peace to me.
Fellow veteran to another thank you for your service. Thank you for still being with us. You have value.
Thank you both for your service. You are both amazing.
😍🥰
Same for me but for different reasons. This 56yo man was diagnosed 7-8 years ago with bipolar. I was always high functioning, that extra energy helped me achieve a lot actually. But then I hit a point where it became a liability. Idk, midlife crisis, just changes in the body and mind with age, stressors with a kid with severe problems, who knows? Point is I became a selfish asshole. She put up with 5-6 really bad years, gambling, coke, younger women...all of it. But she stuck it out with me. I dunno how she did it, but now I appreciate and love her again. She truly takes care of me and I know I couldn't do it alone. I was new to Godsmack, I heard this and it made me think of us. She's not a hard rock or metal fan but I played it for her. Beautiful.
I'm disabled & in a wheelchair due to me a accident. The depression is soul taking some days. I 💗 this song. It's def comfort to me. My husband is the best thru everything...... PTSD controls my life...... Thank you for your service. 🤍God Speed
The quote at the beginning is probably one of the most..... I'm not even sure how to say it. It reaches out and touches you. We all have those thoughts, and knowing that there are other people out there that feel that.... then seeing that, lets you know that everyone is who they are, no one is perfect, and honestly perfection isn't something that should be strived for. We are amazing who we are. We are not alone, and everyone is imperfectly perfect. Everyone is who they are, ever changing... don't change just because someone else wants you to, change because YOU want to. Thank you Sully and Godsmack for being who each of you are.
❤❤❤
This song is so inspiring. It has really touched me. I suffer with depression. On dark days this song makes it better. Thanks from the bottom of my heart
Very good song.
I agree it has helped me in the same way I suffer with depression and other mental health issues
You hang in there brother! Prayers being said on your behalf.
I too suffer from depression and I know exactly how you feel!!!
Stay up brotha itll get better i promise.
I have been with my husband for 28 years. I put him through hell during my addiction. He saved me. I never for a minute doubt his love for me. For that I am blessed.❤
Been there am still there. 11 years. Trying to remake the connection. But the spark never brings light. I've been the problem. Still can't fix me or us. Happy times happy times...
True love never dies and stays NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!
That's a man you should never let go.. They don't make em like this anymore..
angel walker one day you will kiss a rainbow
Angel Walker that is what true love is about. Sadly I’m suffering from clinical depression and started abusing my meds and when I needed my wife the most, she cheated on me and left me for another man that she never met in person. It’s very hard to find true love and someone that will put up with you on bad times
I Lost My Veteran Son To Suicide in 2011 Godamack was one of his favorite group..I Fight joining him Everyday but I know I need to be here for my other 2 children and my grandkids ~ this song hit me deep the first time I heard this song I fell to my knees and balled my eyes out...To anyone who is contemplating suicide please take one step at a time and know that you are not alone..even if you feel like no one cares,the Suicide of someone is a domino affect it will affect ones for the rest of their lives you would of never know..you have people that care even if you cant see them at the moment..we are all here for each other no one will be better off with you gone..you have a purpose here even if it's to touch one persons life..you are important you have value you are needed..tell.your story someone is going to need to hear it...you are an overcomer Your story Hasnt ended
;;; We love you and need you
So beautiful, very well said❤
Keep on loving the memory of your son.
I just read your words and thanku,I've got rock bottom I'm depressed anxiety guilt by choices I made,I'm just existing daily,your words touched me because I feel so lonely worthless,but thanku again
I lost my love KIA in 2006 and almost joined him for a good while. Stay strong! I know it's hardest on the parents, not the partner. We have to keep going though. It's what they would want for us. I'll keep strong too. ❤️🔥
stay strong mister..you'll get through this
I love this song... It's so beautiful, and showcases Sully's vocal range perfectly. Great job, guys!
Such a great feeling to go through everyone's life story in the comments, it's amazing to see how deeply people connect to the music in their own way. God bless you all!
Makes me cry everyone I hear this . Been left with scars that are deep and painful . Praying for strength to move forward .....💔 Prayers for all going thru their own battles....
It's not all sad turn your tears to a waterfall of joy and reflection
Makes me cry too 😢
We are not alone!
The impact youve made for these children is amazing ......i can only imagine
Ali
How have I never heard this song until today?! Very powerful, very moving, I love the song and the message. The comments really bring home how powerful music can be. To anyone struggling out there I’m praying for you, I’m pulling for you and things WILL get better! Anxiety wrecked me for many years until I was led to great coping techniques through a lot of answered prayers. No matter what your challenge is, don’t be ashamed to seek help. May God bless you all!
My first time hearing this fantastic song! Any chance you could share the coping techniques you discovered? 🙏
Wow,
In tears , hope forward 🤠👍
@@bruce2228 ❤😂😢
This is one of the most beautiful songs i've heard by godsmack.
Agreed
Going back to the early Godsmack days, people would probably never get it.. But, Sully is like an Angel Singing.. At least to me
"You're everything that feels like home to me" I was diagnosed with cancer March 24th, 2020. May 7th.. I beat cancer. Cancer is tuff, but I am tuffer!!
blaze jennifer so true...I too beat cancer. I hate to even write that word...28 years May 7th....my birthday...
One of the most beautiful songs ever. I been a fan of godsmack and this genre for 21 yrs. I ain't stoppin
My son was going through a difficult time.
Hopelessness.
This song became part of a playlist I made for him.
Thank you for these beautiful words.
He's grown up loving GODSMACK.
Hey i went to give your playlist a listen to. Can you make it public?
Im curiouss
Look I had a cousin who frfr was like brother kill his self this June be 23 years and I'd give heaven and earth for him him to be here cuz sometimes u just need someone that don't judge yr ass .. and this keeps me from joining him .. js
My awesome momma sent me my link too. Hard times. This helps.
Throughout the years 1 thing has never changed, and that is Godsmack. They are just as good if not better than when they formed the band.
Rock on!!!!
That is soo true man sooo true
crying song mid im here lisn help need
I personally think Godsmack is the most underrated Hard Rock/ metal band. Sully Erna is a true storyteller with his lyrics
You're 100% right.
I personally think I wrote a better song yesterday in my garage
@@ElijahMendiola you probably did
There was a time about 12 years ago, give or take a couple years where they were one of the biggest bands on the planet, then all the poppy bullshit took over because we allowed stupid people to keep fuckin and reproducing and now we have beiber
Mark Payne I was going to say in the early 2000’s it was essentially Godsmack, Linkin Park, Slipknot, Korn, Limb Bizkit, System Of A Down, etc. that ruled the culture.
I'm obsessed with this song, and Sully. Y'all Rock!!! Hey, hell yeah.
Girl, me too!!!! 😍😍
Me too, its epic
Sufferings usually result in and lead to the purest and deepest ART of a human being.
I don't think you can make something touching like this without it.
Your music and lyrics have gotten me thru addiction and depression for 20 years now! Let's go for another 20-God bless!
I've lived on this earth 34 years. Every day for 17 years I've fought suicide. It's funny that I first heard this on Sirius XM a few year ago, and rather go for nostalgia, this hit me harder than anything. Suicide is an option when being strong too long has failed. We all hurt but I keep coming back to this song, I keeps me alive.
Keep coming back so it keeps you here. 💛
You have a place in this life you may have not found it yet but it will find you keep on keeping on strength is a virtue my friend and you have it
If you ever feel alone or you don't belong, come back to this very spot. Also, if you ever need or want a chat, I'm all ears, I don't judge, I listen.
Same my son who age 10 play this when I had a break down later od
I feel you man. Sometimes all of this feels so big and so difficult to navigate. You are not alone
Every single song that this band produces has such a powerful meaning and impact .. when Sully sings it’s seems like he is actually singing to your soul .. this song is the epitome of just that ✌️every song is a true masterpiece and strikes a chord with me .Thank you Godsmack for reaching out of your heart and producing it thru your music you guys are AHHH-mazing❤️🔥
Godspeed Godsmack for doing something positive with the fame and fortune you have been greatly blessed with. You are thankful and that's a big start. from a servant of Jesus
I just don't understand why my eye's are so wet. Godsmack are the king's of inspiration thank you for that. Godsmack RULE'S
My allergies are messing with mine. No I'm crying man
ROLL TIDE
ROLL TIDE ROLL
I think of my ex-wife whenever I hear this.
She had so much trauma buried. She left when it all started coming back.
The more I tried to help, the more she pushed away. I
I love her so much.
I hope and pray she gets the help she needs.
Did the same thing to my husband. I won't bore you with the details but I was sold to a cult by my mother at 14 and it was a set cult so I don't have to tell you how much that f'ed me up. Byv the time I met my current husband, I had been married twice he was number three. I did everything I could to screw it up. I lied, betrayed, emotionally cheated, drugs, men, left, and divorced him twice. He took me back every time. He was my third marriage and we've been marries to each other three times now. Don't give up on her. I finally got the help I needed... because he didn't give up on me. Be there for her, support her. She will eventually get it.
Oddly enough im thinking of my ex husband and come across your comment. We were inseparable until he lost his dad and that was the end of him and to this day he hasn't dealt properly with the loss. I tried for years to help and it wasn't enough because he didnt want it so i had to let go because the cheating is something i just couldnt keep forgiving putting me at risk for disease and harassment from whoever he decided to sleep with. He was a totally different person after his dad passed like i didn't even know him anymore. Im better than that and deserve better and so do my kids. We have kids together and they see him every other weekend but thats it. No calls, no co parenting no nothing and thinks living with someone 10 years younger is what will "fix" him while letting her dictate his life. Mind you hes a grown "man". Any female who doesn't allow a man to be in his kids lives more than every otber weekend is no woman to me yet he allows it. Its actually sad. It kills me to see my kids without a daddy but it was best for my sanity and im double the mommy though it still hurts today nearly 6 yrs later.
I truly hope your ex finds their way and gets the help she needs and finds her way back to you atleast to show you she did it id not to continue your life as one!
Praying for you two🙏😇♥️
In my prayers
I'm sure she knows how much you care. Sometimes those of us who are broken have a impossible time receiving love and help from others. Perhaps the two of you will find your way back to each other. Blessed Be.
" under your scars I pray you're like a shooting star in the rain"-DAMN! That LITERALLY gave me chills. I felt that!
This song hits me so heavily. Driving across town 3 years ago, staying with my parents as my marriage abruptly crumbled out of nowhere with this song playing in the car. I still remember that day...
I understand I didn't see it coming and she went straight no contact so I'm still trying to figure it out. She said she just needed some time but it's been 9 months. When she didn't send so much as a card on my birthday last month I finally accepted that she never intended to return I was fairly certain when she changed her# but I guess I was still holding out hope. She was a birthday nut, I never gave a shit before and I guess I will probably go back to not giving a shit again. The one person I let see my scars has left the biggest ugliest scar I have
Same here...
Incredibly powerful song. How many of us are shooting stars in the rain under our scars? This song gives strength to our human spirits that is desperately needed. I am a Godsmack fan for life.
*This song can be described in One word, AWESOME! God Bless You Guys !*
🙌💝👌🌈 Saved me tonight hearing this for this for the 2nd time tonight, PTSD , Trauma started at 15, & being convinced your own scars make you unloveable are a recipe for darkness. I want to thank Godsmack 👌💜🌈
Overcome! light a match the darkness flees from the light😉
Music is capable of sometimes even healing and getting rid of the impossible pains we feel! GODSMACK is definitely one of the greatest out there and they deserve more credit than they receive!
sending you hug i have ptsd and alot people dont get it i hope you are ok hun
Amanda, I know exactly how you feel. This song has saved me many times since the very first time I heard it.
Amazing song, Sully has a way with writing, I have had this on repeat a few times for hours on end, thank you #Godsmack for the music.
When godsmack does a balled watch out . Simply said wow 😮 very impressive
My husband played me this song in the car about a week ago for the first time! We’ve had our problems and I’ve put him through a lot, he played this FOR me. Brought me to tears. 💙
Under your scars I pray, you’re like a shooting star in the rain, you’re everything that feels like home to me!
I really appreciate all your lovely support and encouragement towards my work. I’m very grateful and thankful to have you as a supportive fan that cares so much❤️😘😍✅💕🙏
@@dariusrucker1349 your work? Sully wrote this.
I've never heard this before but I feel it. He feels it. Wish other people felt this way.
So awesome!! Thank you for sharing ❤
Our scars make us who we are. It shows the world that we've been battle tested and survived.
Hell yes !! Remember the past and move forward 🤘

Lyrics:
Do we make sense, I think we do
In spite of everything that we've been through
Oh and you say black and I say white
It's not about who's wrong
As long as it feels right
Don't think those stars won't align
Under your scars I pray
You're like a shooting star in the rain
You're everything that feels like home to me, yeah
Under your scars, I could live inside you time after time
If you'd only let me live inside of mine
Live inside of mine
Wish you were here
Right beside me
So I could watch you sleep
Hold your body closer, breathe you deep
And everything feels broken
When you're not next to me
Would you still be you
If we weren't we
Under your scars I pray
You're like a shooting star in the rain
You're everything that feels like home to me, yeah
Under your scars, I could live inside you time after time
If you'd only let me live inside of mine
So hey, if you feel like coming down
If you feel like coming around
Just call my name out loud, na, na, na
Hey, if you feel like coming down
If you feel like coming around
Just call my name out loud, na, na, na, yeah
Under your scars I pray
You're like a shooting star in the rain
You're everything that feels like home to me, yeah
Under your scars, I could live inside you time after time
If you'd only let me live inside of mine
Live inside of mine
I love this Lyric so much!
I could hear it on and on....... A powerful Song for me!
My scars are deep
My scars are deep but this song hits home .. I will always love him but he doesn't want me and I accept it and time to move on
Thx man
Beautiful aye!
Stage 4 terminal cancer laying in a hospital bed listening to this song... just inspiring thx guys big fan here for life
So sorry to hear of your diagnosis...stay strong!
FUCK CANCER
My heart goes out to you... I hope and pray that you are not in pain Mike🙏
Stay strong!! 💪🏼
Praying for you and your family
5:35 am daylight time. This is one of Sully and Godsmack's most pure songs. He sings raw with honesty and truth from deep within his soul.
Wow.. I don't have words but amazing . These guys have been around and got better and better with time . Can't believe anyone would thumbs down a powerful song like this!!
I have suffered sexual abuse, drugs and alcohol, 53 years old and finally on the right track and I am at peace with myself.....Wearing my scars with pride....
Amen
I’m so proud of you Maria...”They” did not win!! You did!! Yes proudly wear your scars!!

Scars tell a story. I have emotional scars. Godsmack, your song helps my emotional scars heal. Thank you.
God bless you
I have emotional scars too, along with physical scars, from people I've loved with all my heart. I can truly empathise with you. May your tears of pain be replaced with rainbows of hope. 🕊🙏🕊
❤️❤️❤️
I recently lost my fiance to an overdose on August 13,2021. This was always our song and it brings tears to my eyes and tightens my chest everytime I hear it, along with a few of Sully's solo songs. I want to thank you for touching our lives both while he was physically with us and beyond, cause I can feel his arms around me and wiping my tears. So, thank you for keeping us together yesterday, today and always.
Damn. I lost mine about 4 months before yours. That's tough. Damn
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my wife of 10 years on April 10, 2021 to addiction.
I carry the scars of pain and loss with me but I know underneath them is a fighter, someone who will not give up and live life. Just remember with the fight of dealing with your loss you will have scars.....but underneath them is a wonderful person, a fighter, and someone that will not give up.
Be strong, don't give up and know that your fiance will always be with you, watching over you and still loving you.
So beautifully said ❤️
My husband has Parkinson's and was addicted to pain pills and then to heroin. He has been clean since 2016 but now we are dealing with this. I'm so sorry for your loss. So sad baby. 💞 to you.
Oh so sorry. Addiction is so horribly sad. I hope your heart and soul is healing! Reach out to family/friends everyday for comfort. It really hurts when they leave us. I lost two boyfriend's from 2016 to 2021 for the disease. I still have anxiety. We all need each other for support. You are not alone 💖
