    The drumming in this song is peak Underoath. I revisit this song often and have since I was a teenager

    Ahh to be 14 and rocking out to this with headphones on, or early in the morning while getting ready for school, with black eye shadow, snake bites and all black wardrobe. I’m 26 now and still rocking out to this in the gym or I’m the car with my toddler! Good old memories

    For me, this song was 'Underoath 101'. My friend brought the cd, told me to pop it in my player. So I did what he told, put on my headphones, select this track, and as the intro started to play HOLY SHIT THIS BAND IS AMAZING! WHY DIDN'T I EVER HEARD THEM BEFORE? I'M GONNA BUY THEIR ENTIRE DISCOGRAPHY!
    Best decision of my life.

    LYRICS:
    I've been crawling around in the dark for a while.
    Sprawled out across the floor.
    Not collecting dust anymore.
    Define me a parasite. Define my host.
    Trapped beneath the floor.
    I slowly waste away.
    Now I pull my frail body into the chair.
    And look me in the face.
    Oh, disappointments, so disappointing.
    This may be my last one.
    It's gonna be good and hard.
    It might be a touch out of key.
    When this thing breaks. I will be you, you will be me.
    I'm afraid that this is really happening.
    When this thing breaks. I will be you, you will be me.
    Let's hope this is short lived and riddled with dizzy
    Oh, God the noise! Is ringing in my ear.
    It's so unclear. I hear them talking.
    But can't make out the words.
    Speak up. Speak clear.
    God, where have I been.
    I'm terrible company. With zero apologies.
    My God where have I been.
    Where have i been.
    While I sink to the bottom.
    I'll sing out as it fills with water.
    I hope I've done enough.
    When this thing breaks. I will be you, you will be me.
    Let's hope this is short lived and riddled with dizzy
    When this thing breaks. I will be you, you will be me.
    I'm afraid that this is really happening.
    I'm worn out. (Where have I been)
    I'm worn thin. Where have I been)
    I will never break through. (Where have I been)
    Let me out

    This song was my introduction to Underoath and Metalcore, its still as good now as it was back then. These guys are amazing and i'm so glad i got to see them play last month, hands down the best show I have ever been to. I really hope they get in the studio again.

    For those who don't understand the video:
    A lot of the lyrics from this were made from Spencer's overcoming his drug addiction and reinforce his relationship with God (since from what I know, there are/were all all christians).
    here is my interpretation of the video.
    The boy represents Spencer's current appearance and that old man at the end of the video represents God that sends him an angel. The band represents the soul of Spencer, the pure, the good, the great out of Spencer. And that part of him (the band) is locked inside a box cause of all the drugs Spencer had been having at the time. The angel removes the box out of Spencer mouth, forcing Spencer to follow it to wherever it goes. The translation to it in real life would be that everytime there's no more drug in your system, your addiction to it forces you to follow anything/anyone that can give you some more. No matter what it takes to get it (Hence the name of the song "Desperate Times, Desperate measures") . At the end of the video, He then gets to a point where following the angel that took the drug he's looking for leads him to God. He then gives him the box, which to him contains something he needs (the drug). But God lead him here and put him in this situation to set his soul (the band screaming inside) free.
    The whole band performing the song, as well as the lyrics go about the desperation that the real Spencer locked inside the box need to be set free for the evil him to be locked inside the box.
    "When this thing breaks, I will be you, You'll be me"
    You can also see that towards the end of the song when Spencer is desperately screaming "I will never break through (I refuse to give up on you). Let me out let me out" and It ends right when the boy opens the box.
    Another interpretation of the video could be that it's the other way round. The band represents the evil side that comes with taking drugs and that old man at the end of the video represents the Devil that tricked him into opening the box.
    But the reason I'd likely go with the first interpretation would be cause, right at the end of the video, the boy opens his eyes on the bed and you realize that all this video was actually a dream. Which means that God sent him a vision through his sleep telling him the only person that can set him free from his demons is himself and nobody else. Also the following song on the album is too bright to see, too loud to hear. Which is pretty much about Spencer waking up from all the nonsense he's been doing from his drug addiction, and asking forgiveness for all the wrongs he'd done and also asking the lord to help him find his way back home. Home being the lord's kingdom (could be our world, could be heaven).
    Hope that will make the video more understandable now :D

    TRADUÇÃO
    Estou rastejando
    Por um tempo no escuro
    Espalhado no chão
    Não estou mais juntando poeira
    Defina-me um parasita,
    Defina meu hospedeiro
    Preso sob o chão
    Eu lentamente defino
    Agora eu puxo meu corpo frágil para a cadeira
    E olho para o meu rosto
    Oh, decepções, tão decepcionantes
    Esta pode ser a minha última
    Vai ser bom e difícil
    Pode ser um toque desafinado
    Um toque desafinado
    Quando essa coisa quebrar
    Eu serei você
    Você será eu
    Tenho medo de que isso esteja realmente acontecendo
    Quando essa coisa quebrar
    Eu serei você
    Você será eu
    Vamos torcer para que isso seja de curta duração e cheio de tontura
    Oh Deus, o barulho
    Está zumbindo no meu ouvido
    É tão confuso, tão confuso
    Eu os ouço falando
    Mas não consigo entender as palavras
    Fale alto, fale claro
    Eu os ouço falando
    Mas não consigo entender as palavras
    Fale alto, fale claro
    Deus, onde eu estou sido?
    Eu sou uma péssima companhia
    Sem desculpas zero
    Meu Deus, onde eu estive?
    Onde eu estive?
    Enquanto eu afundo no fundo
    Eu vou cantar enquanto ele enche de água
    Espero ter feito o suficiente
    Quando essa coisa quebrar
    Eu serei você
    Você será eu
    Vamos torcer para que isso seja de curta duração e cheio de tontura
    Quando essa coisa quebrar
    Eu serei você
    Você será eu
    Tenho medo de que isso esteja realmente acontecendo
    Estou exausto
    Estou esgotado
    Eu nunca vou superar
    Estou exausto (Onde eu estive?)
    Estou esgotado (Onde eu estive?)
    Eu nunca vou superar (Onde eu estive?)
    Deixe-me sair
    Deixe-me sair
    Deixe-me sair

    And learning to be a man is one of the greatest life lessons any boy can learn.
    This band has an 'otherworldly' feel to them, like they are just different, somehow.

    Couldn't have said it better myself...Zao may have started Screamo or "hardcore" but Underoath gave it a new light and perfected it.

    2022, Chris just posted a reel on instagram about experimenting with new instruments. One of which was on top of a box that looks just like that 3:10 one on this music video. So I commented on his reel, and he replied to me and agrees, it’s very similar.
