    Hydra = your demons
    The girl = your innocence
    The lion = your strength
    The chains = your problems/fear
    The city = your battlefield
    The sword = your weapon/courage
    Statue = guidance
    Walking away = the ability to move on
    I love skillets messages in their music! This song is amazing

      You are probably right, but that doesnt even matter. Everyone can choose to see the meaning they need to see the most at the moment. I think, that's how Skillet would like it.

    I watched this video and listened to this song almost religiously every day when I was in middle school. It was the worst time of my life with so much going on, and this really was the song that kept me from dying. This song gave me motivation and courage to fight back, take my life back. And 6 years later, I have 👊

      It is good that you keep listening to this song during your difficult time. Every life is precious. I know it is not easy. Don't let people defined your worth. Jesus loves you and He is proud to see you fight back. Jesus, I like to pray for Erica and ler her know that she is beautiful and precious in your sight. I am happy for her that she is coming out stronger from the fight she had been through. Lord, may you bless her with friends and people that you wanted to surround her with, so that she will not have to go through her battle on her own. In lord Jesus name I pray, amen. 🙏

      This deserves much more likes. God, will never give up on anybody despite what everybody thinks because they don’t understand as well as they think they do. I love this band I learned about it when I was young and my whole family is Christian. I love all the good things God has done for this world, these songs just show so much meaning. Btw, if you want a real good song on the Christianity complexities and a good insight on it, listen to “Fly on the Wall” by Thousand Foot Krutch, it has so much more meaning to it then people think, there are insights in this belief and how stupid us humans have ruined the beauty of Christianity and God because we are letting ourselves be restricted by Satan, every sentence of that song has great meaning. I’m happy to greet you to the family and I pray for you and everybody else. Everyone in the family welcomes you! 😄💕 You’ll find no regrets here I promise you.

  • @Ghost_Hawk
    @Ghost_Hawk 5 лет назад +1023

    I love the biblical references in this video; the seven-headed dragon from Book of Revelation, the lion that protected the prophets against the pagans, the little girl beginning her attack with just a stone and slingshot, like David defeating Goliath, her picking up the sword (from an angel statue) and fighting the beast with it, much like the archangel Michael fighting the devil, and a crumbling city that collapses, just like the walls of Jericho or Sodom and Gomorrah during the time of Abraham. This is an awesome video for combining these themes, and has a good message about not giving up in the face of insurmountable odds and certain death. Love Skillet.

    Death surrounds
    My heartbeat's slowing down
    I won't take this world's abuse
    I won't give up or refuse
    This is how it feels when you're bent and broken
    This is how it feels when your dignity's stolen
    When everything you love is leaving
    You hold on to what you believe in
    The last thing I heard was you whispering goodbye
    And then I heard you flatline
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta stand and fight forever (don't close your eyes)
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta fight for us together
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    Break their hold
    Cause I won't be controlled
    They can't keep their chains on me
    When the truth has set me free
    This is how it feels when you take your life back
    This is how it feels when you finally fight back
    When life pushes me I push harder
    What doesn't kill me makes me stronger
    The last thing I heard is you whispering goodbye
    And then I heard you flatline
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta stand and fight forever (don't close your eyes)
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta fight for us together
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    Don't you give up on me
    You're everything I need
    This is how it feels when you take your life back
    This is how it feels when you fight back
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta stand and fight forever (don't close your eyes)
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta fight for us together
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    Not gonna die
    (Not gonna die)
    Not gonna die
    (Not gonna die)
    Not gonna die tonight

    When I was at least 19 my whole life changed, I have my first panic attack and anxiety during that age. It scarred me for 3 years. Three whole years, I lived under fear and pain. It was like cold flame surrounding my body. I couldn’t bare it and I thought I just wanted to end it.... but I can’t. My heart, my body, my will, they said “No.” I cried to myself....but I kept going. I stood my ground, I keep my head high and said “I will not die. Not now, not ever.” I will never let myself go, I refuse to go down... because my whole family need me.. and I need them. I am a warrior. And I will die as a warrior. Nothing more.

    I friggin LOVE this!! The lion and the girl can have so many archetypal meanings. They are both strong and willing to die for each other. The monster is so busy throwing them around they don't notice the weakening structures that finally collapse. The animation is different and poignant. Like the old silent movies, so much emotion and fear and determination is conveyed with a single glance. Norma Desmond would be proud. I'm so glad to have stumbled across this work of art.

  • @siamesegeneral3654

    this song is trying to point out that people who are suicidal should fight away that depression that's getting to them and try to think on the positive side cause there are friends and family who care for you so don't take your life from the people you love and care about cause then they become you and would never be able to think straight cause you are the light of their lives.

      Teammagmagrunt Arekkusu I guess it all depends on your prospective. I know they are a Christian rock band but they never really directly says "God" or "Jesus" in fact if you didn't know that you would just think it is talking about a fight of some sort and the lyric video kind of reinforces that, but I see your point

    Lyrics:
    Death surrounds
    My heartbeat's slowing down
    I won't take this world's abuse
    I won't give up I refuse
    This is how it feels when you're bent and broken
    This is how it feels when your dignity's stolen
    When everything you love is leaving
    You hold on to what you believe in
    The last thing I heard was you whispering goodbye
    And then I heard you flat line
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta stand and fight forever (don't close your eyes)
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta fight for us together
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    Break their hold
    Cause I won't be controlled
    They can't keep their chains on me
    When the truth has set me free
    This is how it feels when you take your life back
    This is how it feels when you finally fight back
    When life pushes me I push harder
    What doesn't kill me makes me stronger
    The last thing I heard is you whispering goodbye
    And then I heard you flat line
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta stand and fight forever (don't close your eyes)
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta fight for us together
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    Don't you give up on me
    You're everything I need
    This is how it feels when you take your life back
    This is how it feels when you fight back
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta stand and fight forever (don't close your eyes)
    No, not gonna die tonight
    We've gotta fight for us together
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    No, we're not gonna die tonight
    Not gonna die
    (Not gonna die)
    Not gonna die
    (Not gonna die)
    Not gonna die tonight
