Lyrics: I didn't know about those other things I could've been there but now it's too late But only here for one hour, we won't know till it's gone Try to find the best, I know you I didn't know that you would leave so soon I'd have tried a little harder to make you smile once more One day I'll come to find you, wherever you may be Only time was kinder, you would still be here
I lost a friend to depression this morning. I didn't know he was still that bad. Know one did. He was the most cheerful, caring, loving guy. He was friends with everyone in the entire county and everyone loved him. "If only time was kinder, you would still be here". I really want you to come back or for me to wake up from this nightmare
I’m really sorry to hear that.. I hope that everything and everyone is kind to you (Including yourself) to help you get through this. Best wishes and I hope you’re okay 💖
I am so sorry friend ♥️ I lost a friend too a few yrs ago and it still hurts. I hope wherever your friend went he is feeling lighter. I talk to my friend all the time, it helps. Be gentle with yourself
hey, your comment was posted a few weeks ago, but i wanted to see how you are doing. At my high school there was a kid who committed un-alive. And the response to his death was way different than they show in movies and tv shows. All we did all day was cry. It was so quiet in school, like everyone was still processing all the questions they had for him. its been 3 years since he died and still people comment on his last Instagram post trying to let him no how much they miss him, hundreds of students wish him happy birthday every year. you might be looking for answers and wondering what you could have done to prevent it from happening, but considering that you sound like a very kind person, you did all that you could. please please please don't blame yourself you didn't know, you couldn't have known how he felt. it will be okay. There may be times where it feels impossible to focus on the good things when there is so much pain. The most effective thing we did at school that day was talk to each other about how we felt. this was long, but i hoped it helped
@@anne.l.w thank you so much for everything you said. I am hanging in there as best I can. I think that our community and school had never been more united than we were those few days after his death. The night after he had passed his dad organized a get together/prayer for him at the 4H grounds and I think more than 200 people had shown up, maybe even 300. It was amazing to see everyone but it sucked to think that he probably didnt realize that there were that many people that loved and missed him. His dad has done an incredible job at talking about it and keeping the community informed. I think the part that has helped us all heal the most is that he is an organ donor and his dad keeps us updated on all of the people he's been able to help. I think hes been able to help about 10 people so far with his organ donations❤
This song made me think of an old friend that I had. I used to go over to her home and have dinner with her and her two kids, and then we would play music. As i riffed around on the guitar she would always add with her vocals whether it were words or just notes. Once in awhile we'd get the neighborhood listening in and come outside. She had such a beautiful voice and a beautiful soul. Well, time came creeping and cystic cancer took her. I miss our days playing together, and the wise words we spoke together. I miss you songbird. I hope you're flying high.
My 11th wedding anniversary, painting the floor of our twins bedroom with my wife and best friend, having a laugh. This song just made me flash through the 20 years we've been together, in my mind. I feel blessed to have met her, I can't imagine life without her. I cherish this moment and now this song also. Love is a pure joy to be cherished. One love all.xx
Congratulations and what a beautiful comment. You are right. love IS to be cherished-whether for a spouse/partner/child/friend. That the world around us can evoke that is magical and a blessing.
I like how this song doesn't specify if it's something romantic, a good friend, or family. Just really feels like it's about losing someone you care about, whether they're just going away or dying. Lost my mom back in August and the song hits there for me the most, met a good friend online that helped me through the grieving process and showed me this song. We parted ways for the time being. But really showed me that people out there care. If you're reading this, and you've lost someone, remember people care, and if you can, spread that love. You never know who might need just a bit to keep them going.
@@theresaramgeet6586 Thank you, doing well now, had gotten into a deep depression but came out doing alright. Got back in touch with my friend as well, things are starting to look up. Hope all is well with you too, stay safe.
@@alwaysrarito Yeah dude, life's been going pretty alright now. we'll all come across some highs and some lows. When I'm in a high, I like to help others get there as well now. Hope you're doing good too bro, love you man
Take good care of yourself. It's so tough you lose your Mum. Mine was 50 and died about 16 years ago. Although I still miss her, the pain does lessen and I believe in some way your mom will be "with you" 💙
I was mistreated in a toxic relationship I let go on for way too long. I moved hundreds of miles away, started a new job, and I’ve lost 130lbs. No matter how stuck you feel, you’re not. You’re stronger than anything you’ve seen before. Trust yourself.
Ya I feel yuh on that,the wrong people places and things can ruin your life especially when someone is lusted after early in their recovery and not ready for a relationship
This song became my ringtone after my mother passed a few years back, and yesterday my father also passed as well. I don't think I've ever cried as much to a song as this one here, i just wanted to say thank you Skinshape for this incredible piece. It's helped me more than I ever thought music could.
It’s 12:30 am, I’m working in the garage and this song plays randomly and hits me in the gut. “I didn't know, that you would leave so soon I didn't try a little harder, to make you smile once more One day I'll come to find you, wherever you may be If only time was kinder, you would still be here” Last week my 19 year old cousin passed away. The smart one that played 3 instruments, black belt in karate, at college and pursuing his degree and eventual career. In the prime of life, gone for good. How I wish it weren’t true, RIP JMW. 😢
I just want to say to all of you, I am terribly sorry for your losses. The pain you are all going through is so much, but I’m very thankful you shared this here. I pray that you all have better lives and happier moments, because you all deserve it. God bless, beautiful souls ✝️❤️✝️❤️✝️❤️
I am getting the feeling that, as people die, young, older or whatever... that the worst thing isn't that they're gone, but the people left behind to notice it, and mourn it and speak about them and write songs, sometimes. Like this one. Maybe the people who've left are just fine. I feel like they are. As for the rest of us, hold onto them any way you choose to and, Good luck 🌹
So sorry to hear his, I hope you are healing well and keeping those fond memories close. I lost my father over 15 years ago at 24 and sometimes it hurts bad
Went to school with this guy. He was nice, mature for his age. He deserves the success. And by success I don’t just mean recognition, but being genuinely creative.
I've dedicated this song to my mom, it's been almost one year since that night. I remember following the ambulance while this song played randomly on my phone. Everytime i listen, it connects me with that moment and most importantly with her. I love you so much amu.
My mum just passed away because of cancer. The lyrics " I didn't know that you would leave so soon. I'd tried a little harder to make you smile once more." really hit me. We didn't talk much, I have never open my mind to her. I could done better when she is still here.
It hits rock bottom, before it gets better. But it does. It always does. Try to make her memory smile with a well lived life. Every mom smiles to their kid living their best life.
Thank you all, I just can’t tell my feeling to my friends because I don’t want them to be sad, and I don’t want to cry in front of them. The comments really helped me to get through. All the best to everyone.
My grandma passed this morning ive been listening to this song on repeat this past week not knowing it was going to Manifeast into my life ... I never got to have the relationship I wanted to have with her, I wanted to know her point of view and story, I know she deserved better... both in her passing and through life. I didn’t know you were gonna go so soon. But thank you for being here even for a short moment I’ll miss you forever till we meet eye to eye again.
We cannnot change what is already done, but we can always do our best to be a better version of our past-selves. That's a way I like to think to deal with feelings like this wish of yours.
@@qotda Ahhhhh fuck I cant believe you've done this. :'( I found the song a little while back but bothered listening to the words just yesterday and felt the exact same thing. Hits hard, even 14 years later.
I lost the only woman who ever made me feel truly blessed and happy, only because we found each other at the wrong time in our lives. I hope we find each other again some day. I'll always love her more than time itself.
I came to hear this song. I lost a friend from Afghanistan, I met him by internet and he was an extraordinary person, that kind of people you only know once in a life. I regret all the things I didn’t tell him, how much I love him and that even in the distance he taught me so much about this life, not lie, not promise thing that you don’t gonna do. I wish you were here, but you no longer here. So I remembered this song, and all this masterpiece hits me so hard, lyrics feel bittersweet and those special ones that describe perfectly my feelings. I didn’t know about those other things. And still keep echoing in my head. Thanks for reading.
I just discovered Skinshape today. I just listened to Skinshape’s discography and I didn’t hear one bad song. Honestly what a blessing. This song reminds me of Harvest Moon by Neil Young. This is absolute perfection. Thank you.
KittyCatAddict let me blow your mind, skinshape is in fact one single guy who plays and composes the songs, rather than a whole band. he was playing bass for palace before starting skinshape
A lot of people have commented about how this makes them nostalgic for lost love. That's amazing. I went on a week-long road trip to Asheville with my last SO a few weeks before she tore my heart into shreds. This song never fails to remind me of driving the Blue Ridge Parkway with her, but it's so beautiful that it's helped me to see my experience and that unforgettable trip in a kinder, calmer light. Thank you, Skinshape.
Last year I lost the love of my life in a horrible car accident. We had lots of trauma that we suppressed and we were so abusive towards each other mentally and physically. The last time I saw him we got into a big fight and I told him how much I hated him and wanted him dead. He ends up going missing and dies all alone. Everyone blamed me and for a while I blamed myself I wanted to take my own life. Instead I just spiraled and slowly started to lose everything and everyone around me. It took months and me surrendering to God to understand. Please hold on tight to your loved ones I would do anything for another chance to see my loved one but I know I’ll see him in heaven. No fight or argument is worth staying mad at your loved one make things right before their time or your time comes. Believe me the regret and guilt can eat you alive.
WHATEVER RELATIONSSHIP YOU FIND,.... It was be different and beautiful, mistakes and lose, cause a "Love wisdom". You love more, listen better, forgive easy, You will create Nirvana. CWM
Losing my way-too-young loved one to depression-almost 2 years later, this music captures the aftermath perfectly. More sentimental than sad. The quiet rhythm driving unrelentingly forward. If only time was kinder. We truly are just here for an hour.
Love & miss you grandma, it’s been 3 yrs now I believe since I’ve heard your voice or felt your warm embrace. 2020 was a terrible yr overall. I hope to see you again one day abuelita ❤ thank you for everything you did
Going through these comments, it’s crazy to see the range of emotions and memories of loss/love that people associate with this song. I’ve listened to this song over the years with tears of joy and tears of sadness and, therein lies it’s beauty. Just a perfect record from start to finish. Thank you Skinshape!
I just realized that browsing through RUclipss music suggestions is actually soul enrichment. If you don’t do it, it’s actually unhealthy because you end up having the same catalogue of music for years. It doesn’t sound like a problem but it is because it exacerbates the problem of how we live each day the same boring cycle.
Never has a song impacted me as much as this one. I only heard it earlier this year in May through a random artist radio playlist on Spotify. It instantly grabbed me and I've listened to it over 1,000 times without exaggeration. Such a beautiful piece of art.
I discovered this song (the very first one of Skinshape) in 2018 and I haven't stop to listen to it since then. It always was the song that made me company when none else did, at the moments where I needed support but loneliness was overmuch. It was the kind caress I needed. Last year, 2020, was a terrifying year for all of us. Too much pain. Back then, when reality overflowed my mind and I couldn't stand by my feet, it was this song that made me smile and made me a bit comfortable and pleaced, wherever I was. Skinshape, I have you in a hug. Now, I am in a difficult moment, and as usual, I come to this song and I listen to it over and over again, to feel better. Thank you forever, William, for this song. Such a beautiful gift you gave us all.
No one I love has died yet. Yet day after day I'm here listening to this with scenarios playing through my head. I'm just preparing for when the day comes. I'm mourning for my future self. I'm crying for her because I know she won't be able to handle it when it actually happens. Dear mother I hope you'll live longer than me.
Your words concern me. Believe me, your mother does not want you to check out first. What she needs is to see you fully develop into the beautiful person for which she has dedicated her whole life preparing. Only then ,will the agitations in her soul be soothed. So when the day comes for her to crossover, she will be completely at peace. Forgive me, if this analysis does not fit the narrative.
I have played this on repeat for 3 days now. Day n night. Those bright lazy groovy soul riffs, the guitar layers, the skiffly breezy drums. Love love love this, Thank you Skinshape for sharing your art :-)
A bit over a year ago I was having a bad acid trip and this song came on on RUclips and it instantly made me just lay down and enjoy thr moment. This song brought so much fucking joy to me. Skinshape came to me that day and I continue to listen to him almost everytime I trip. Its like he knows..
One day you’re here, next day you are gone. What could this life mean? These are the kinda of questions this song brings to mind. Oddly satisfying like we are excepting our fate. Life is so complicated there is so much to just being alive, the emotions/experiences/memories/sadness and happiness. Just so crazy to think about it all. This is what this music makes me think about.
Here's the lyrics for you guys: I didn't know about those other things I could've been there, but now it's too late We're only here for one hour, we won't know untill it's gone Try to find the best, I know you I didn't know, that you would leave so soon I didn't try a little harder, to make you smile once more One day I'll come to find you, wherever you may be If only time was kinder, you would still be here
I first came across this song when I was 15/16 at school in the Lake District. Everytime I hear it I'm reminded of the of the spring days hanging out with my friends, watching the sunsets in the long grasses looking over the mountains and the Kent Estuary. It allows me to romanticise my teenagehood which is so incredibly precious. It's the most beautiful song. For me, it embodies those strong emotions of joy, freedom, love, and friendship as well as heartbreak and sadness we feel so intensely at that age. It ties in all of my most cherished and beautiful memories and provides me with a sense of place and familiarity when I'm feeling low. If I'm looking to be reflective and need a moment to release any pent-up emotions, this is the song/band I turn towards.
This song reminds me of my trip to see family in Germany last year and my late grandma. I listened to this song with her shortly before I found out she had cancer. She passed June 2020. Ich liebe dich Oma 💓
my great-great grandmother died in early June 2020 too, with 95 years old! I understand she needed to rest, but it doesn't make me miss her any less :( I'm sure your grandma is fine wherever she is
What an incredibly beautiful song, so deep❤ the video is amazing! It reminds me how life is constantly changing and when you think you have a perception it evolves into something else. We all lose something in life whether it's a person a perception, a broken promise or sometimes we loose ourselves through the complexities of life. I listened to this song over and over on the way home from work. It made me feel as if one day I will find where I need to be ⚘️
Every single lonly night walk I did last year started with this song. I connect such strong feelings to this one, that whenever I hear it Im back home, feeling all alone and walking through the streets at 3 am thinking about all kinds of stuff, love, relationships, hatred, isolation...
I always loose myself when I'm with someone...been single for a year after a 3yr relationship and it took this time to see all I really needed was me all along...no one else to love me, I needed to love myself first...❤️😊✨
@@coatzinr we have to give our All to ourselves first and be whole before we can give ourselves to someone else. We will get through it. Best wishes to you babe. 🙏✨
This is one of my favorite songs.. has been on repeat. I have literally listened to it a couple of thousand times no joke... it represents my 2019. Thanks Skinshape so refreshing and nowninhave a video yaaasssss
I remember having a bad time trying to sleep so i putted some music on my phone, after a while I fall asleep but then suddenly woke up listening the best song I ever heard in my entire life!
Skinshape is wildly inspirational. This video too wow!!! One interpretation: there is only one time in all of history where we are all here on Earth as little humans with all these other beings. It's a crazy miracle that all of us happened to have got thrown here at the same time! We (our lovers, friends, brothers/sisters, fish, flowers, butterflies, birds, mountains, living room couches - all of us) could get sucked into a black hole tomorrow. Love it all while we're here together
Found Skinshape in March of 2019 and boy how lucky I feel to have found one of my favourite bands through chance. Thanks for your music man, it helps me out a lot.
...ain’t it the truth!💔 Since Mother left on ~Valentine’s Day 1990~ ~My dear oldest sister passed away suddenly the day after this past ~ Valentine’s Day ~ 1 & 1/2 months before that my youngest brother passed away in the wee hours of the morning on ~ New Year’s Day ~ ~ 2021~ 😔💔🕊
I found this song after taking care of my mother during her cancer hospice. I knew every moment we had was on a timeline. When the cancer was actively killing her I gave her a lethal dose of morphine. Then we watched her slip away in peace. Every time I listen to this song I still ball like a baby.
I love this song with all my might. Always starting over from the top. Sad lyrics but it always brings me joy. Always makes me dance. Thank you skinshape.
my great-great grandmother died in early June 2020 too, with 95 years old! I understand she needed to rest, but it doesn't make me miss her any less :( I'm sure your grandma is fine wherever she is 🕊️❣️
i first listened to this song and only paid attention to the melody. i recently revisited it and my heart is shattered. my brother left us on his own accord in 2018 and i wish he didn't every single day.
Escuché esta canción el día en que mi madre falleció y cada vez que la vuelvo a escuchar me recuerda ese momento, ella solo cerró los ojos para siempre. En honor a ella compuse una canción que se llama Broken Pieces y cada vez que la toco con mi banda se me caen las lágrimas.
I listen to music all day every day.. for the past 2 days this has literally been the ONLY song I have listened too... don’t even know the band (my bad), but it’s like a reminder to show unconditional love.. not 4 reciprocation.. just to show luv. Crazy dawg
Its been a couple of years now of good memories with Skinshape playing on the background, THANK YOU. Can't wait for a few more. Love this. Skinshape is everything that is right in the world
old buildings and places that went out of business along with torn down trees and old friends are what the past consists of so don't take this moment for granted because you could want it back in 10 year's from now.
Heaven. Heaven up there. Hell down here. Separate us from them. Your blood. Delivering truth. This song is an ode to mankind. What we think we know, we do not. What we think we don't know is instinctively clear within us. A voice like no other in the abyss said to me NOTHING IN THIS LIFE WILL BE EASY. God knows the heart of man. His ways are not our ways. In the end, salvation and eternity await, wether you choose to believe or not. Maranatha
For I didn't know about those other things. And now I do I shall stand in his name. It's the blood. What he did is forever. I thought I knew love until I met Jesus. What he did on the cross was love. I've been separated for over a month. Really hard time right now. 9 years together we found the lord together and now just me and Jesus. I shall never let you go Jesus.
@@HellomuSic1296 The separation is part of the journey. Sometimes they are short seasons and sometimes longer. Stay present with God today and everyday and let all of the yesterdays and tomorrows worry for themselves. There are over 100 scriptures about being in the present. God is able to turn your pain and sadness to His glory. I pray Abba Father reveal himself in such a way to you that no man or woman will ever reign above Him in your heart! 🙏🙌
this song reminds me of when I was getting out of a break up an the whole winter was just a mess but once spring came I heard this song for the first time taking a walk
Hace un tiempo descubrí esta canción, estoy en el aeropuerto y me dieron unas ganas profundas de escucharla, es como un cariño al alma. Viendo los comentarios me llegué a emocionar. Estamos aquí, ahora. Experimentando la vida, que lindo.
haven’t listened to this in years and at the time was just a groovy tune but now it makes me think of my old self around that time and how i lost myself telling myself i was fine .,,, wish i could hug her:c
Everyone’s commenting something sad under this song but to me this song just gives me the vibe of chillin in a coffee shop somewhere drinking coffee and reading a book. Or chillin at home with not much going on just a chill vibe getting stoned something to relax to.
This song has been bittersweet for the past few months for me. I was mourning the two yr loss of a great friend, my dog had puppies but one didn't make it. Then a week later she was mauled to death by a neighbor dog. "If only time was kinder" guts me every time. It's been really fucking hard these few months w work and life and trying to remember things will be okay. I wish eveyone in these comments finds peace too
I cried to this over a breakup. Remembering all the great parts when it was mostly bad. Thank you RUclips for showing me this song again. I almost forgot and I love it
Funny because had I not said goodbye I would've never knew this beautiful songs existed. But reminiscing back in that moment of listen to this song at night in the back seat of the car had I the choice to choose, I would've probably stayed the night in San Antonio.
I’ve lost 6 people within two years. my dad, sister, auntie, brother in law, uncle, and nephew. Now I’m mourning my second oldest sister while she’s still alive. Addiction has changed her drastically. I just recently had my son and my heart broke all over again, realizing he won’t have his auntie the way I remember her, only the memories I have of her. The hardest part of loss is knowing that time doesn’t stop. The hurt you feel never goes away, you just learn how to live with it. This song is bitter sweet, I’ll never stop listening, it brings up feelings I thought were once lost. I love you always my sweet angels🤍
I just moved to Flagstaff AZ and heard this song about 2 days after. Ironically at 2:37 it shows a mountain range I am quite confident is Mt Humphreys and the San Francisco Mountains. It's a sign... I'm in the right place.
this song makes whatever you’re doing in the moment feel like a memory
Tis why i put it on replay. Made me feel like that specific mood.
damn
i’m sitting at the toilet

exactly...
Lyrics:
I didn't know about those other things
I could've been there but now it's too late
But only here for one hour, we won't know till it's gone
Try to find the best, I know you
I didn't know that you would leave so soon
I'd have tried a little harder to make you smile once more
One day I'll come to find you, wherever you may be
Only time was kinder, you would still be here
I'd have tried a little harder to make you smile once more
🖤
thanks
Thank you for existing.
Now I know why I like this song so much. Thanks Auke Spijker !
I'm working on myself right now, im glad this song has no person attached to it.
yeah, same
Gladly I kept a lot of songs to myself during lol
No form only satisfaction
Good man. Keep it that way
yo that really stayed with me, hope you're all good bro
That feeling between sadness and being content is as closest as I can explain it.
Acceptance?
Melancholy
Sweet Surrender
Bittersweet nostalgia
Yes
I lost a friend to depression this morning. I didn't know he was still that bad. Know one did. He was the most cheerful, caring, loving guy. He was friends with everyone in the entire county and everyone loved him. "If only time was kinder, you would still be here". I really want you to come back or for me to wake up from this nightmare

This song became my ringtone after my mother passed a few years back, and yesterday my father also passed as well. I don't think I've ever cried as much to a song as this one here, i just wanted to say thank you Skinshape for this incredible piece. It's helped me more than I ever thought music could.
I hope you write, cause the way you do it, touches hearts.
It’s 12:30 am, I’m working in the garage and this song plays randomly and hits me in the gut.
“I didn't know, that you would leave so soon
I didn't try a little harder, to make you smile once more
One day I'll come to find you, wherever you may be
If only time was kinder, you would still be here”
Last week my 19 year old cousin passed away. The smart one that played 3 instruments, black belt in karate, at college and pursuing his degree and eventual career. In the prime of life, gone for good. How I wish it weren’t true, RIP JMW. 😢
I just want to say to all of you, I am terribly sorry for your losses. The pain you are all going through is so much, but I’m very thankful you shared this here. I pray that you all have better lives and happier moments, because you all deserve it. God bless, beautiful souls ✝️❤️✝️❤️✝️❤️
I am getting the feeling that, as people die, young, older or whatever... that the worst thing isn't that they're gone, but the people left behind to notice it, and mourn it and speak about them and write songs, sometimes.
Like this one.
Maybe the people who've left are just fine.
I feel like they are.
As for the rest of us,
hold onto them any way you choose to and,
Good luck 🌹
So sorry to hear his, I hope you are healing well and keeping those fond memories close. I lost my father over 15 years ago at 24 and sometimes it hurts bad
Rest in peace, mom. I love you.
I'm sorry for your loss . 💕 RIP
Amen
Sane
Same
Stay strong ❤️
This is the type of song you play for someone who is able to hear for the first time, to show them how beautiful music is.
why is no one talking about how insanely good the video is
So true I cannot imagine how much work was put into making it!
I was thinking about that's why I doctor explore comments
cause we are more enjoying it than saying it
Went to school with this guy. He was nice, mature for his age. He deserves the success. And by success I don’t just mean recognition, but being genuinely creative.
I've dedicated this song to my mom, it's been almost one year since that night. I remember following the ambulance while this song played randomly on my phone. Everytime i listen, it connects me with that moment and most importantly with her. I love you so much amu.
Love this song. I used to listen to it and cook for my ex gf when we were in brasil. So nostalgic.
Que triste bro, lo único que queda son los buenos recuerdos
Cool cheers from Brazil o/

@@satori8895 i love brazil 💞 beautiful place, paradise
@Isaac Floresi love to travel, even tho i'm alone now LOL
If only time was kinder.
you'd still be here
Just a wee bit would be nice
That verse
Damn, that's the one part that always gets me
What a beautiful lyrics
Yep. Still, if I could spend my last ten years of life with my wife and family in SEA, it d be enough.
This song has a feeling of surrender to the time/situation.
Everyone tries their best and has to play their role.
Just pure understanding of life
My mum just passed away because of cancer. The lyrics " I didn't know that you would leave so soon. I'd tried a little harder to make you smile once more." really hit me. We didn't talk much, I have never open my mind to her. I could done better when she is still here.
cheer up lad, you will see her again
I've had bad dreams of the same, and yet it's hard to change. But I doubt she would have reproached you.
It hits rock bottom, before it gets better. But it does. It always does. Try to make her memory smile with a well lived life. Every mom smiles to their kid living their best life.
Thank you all, I just can’t tell my feeling to my friends because I don’t want them to be sad, and I don’t want to cry in front of them. The comments really helped me to get through. All the best to everyone.
@@paulfung8242 also trust your friends lad. True friends will let you cry and just be the shoulder to cry on.
My grandma passed this morning ive been listening to this song on repeat this past week not knowing it was going to Manifeast into my life ... I never got to have the relationship I wanted to have with her, I wanted to know her point of view and story, I know she deserved better... both in her passing and through life. I didn’t know you were gonna go so soon. But thank you for being here even for a short moment I’ll miss you forever till we meet eye to eye again.
i know how u feel went through it 11 month ago, reading this made me happy
Had this with my late father. Wrongful allegations made before he died and he went to the grave thinking I was still guilty.
i miss my grandma too
occasionally i find a song thats so good it forces me to feel emotions that i've surpressed my entire life. i wish i was a better person to everyone.
We cannnot change what is already done, but we can always do our best to be a better version of our past-selves. That's a way I like to think to deal with feelings like this wish of yours.
it's all good g, just crack on you got this!
you can be a better person. hope you find peace with everything.
It's an odd feeling/emotion in itself to realize that
Keep it up bud your always a ray of sunshine to someone
I'm afraid of change but this song tells me to embrace it
life is alwyas changing. all we can do is go along for the ride and let nature take its course
Same, college it is.
To change is inevitable, I am afraid of not changing.
that's a good song

"the lyrics were made for someone who passed away, it made me cry when I realized it"
oh no :(
I know
Verse two for mum
@@qotda Ahhhhh fuck I cant believe you've done this. :'( I found the song a little while back but bothered listening to the words just yesterday and felt the exact same thing. Hits hard, even 14 years later.
Could I get the link pls
I lost the only woman who ever made me feel truly blessed and happy, only because we found each other at the wrong time in our lives. I hope we find each other again some day. I'll always love her more than time itself.
I'm in the same 😔 shape
Same here Tacoman. Same here...
Same! Blessings to you
I came to hear this song. I lost a friend from Afghanistan, I met him by internet and he was an extraordinary person, that kind of people you only know once in a life. I regret all the things I didn’t tell him, how much I love him and that even in the distance he taught me so much about this life, not lie, not promise thing that you don’t gonna do. I wish you were here, but you no longer here. So I remembered this song, and all this masterpiece hits me so hard, lyrics feel bittersweet and those special ones that describe perfectly my feelings. I didn’t know about those other things. And still keep echoing in my head. Thanks for reading.
If only time was kider, you would still be here ... this hits different :(
i miss the old times.
hiii i dedicate you this cool nice tune - Time by The Impures
i hope you liek it :)))
I pray everyone smiles when hearing this song and spreads the love to others, no matter who they are. Stay Blessed 🙏🏽
This is the most important song a true music fan should have on their playlist. 💯
"I woulda tried a little harder, to make you smile once more" that damn line gets me in the feels every time! 🥲
I just discovered Skinshape today. I just listened to Skinshape’s discography and I didn’t hear one bad song. Honestly what a blessing. This song reminds me of Harvest Moon by Neil Young. This is absolute perfection. Thank you.
I’ve been playing the two song you mentioned over and over
Thats true... Kinda like harvest moon...
This is my absolute favorite song from you guys, as well as the first one I ever found. Bless.
KittyCatAddict let me blow your mind, skinshape is in fact one single guy who plays and composes the songs, rather than a whole band. he was playing bass for palace before starting skinshape
Adam G Whoa, wait, serious?? That's insane!
Same. First song I heard by him and definitely one of if not my fav. Glad they gave it a nice music video. It deserves it.
Same here.

A lot of people have commented about how this makes them nostalgic for lost love. That's amazing. I went on a week-long road trip to Asheville with my last SO a few weeks before she tore my heart into shreds. This song never fails to remind me of driving the Blue Ridge Parkway with her, but it's so beautiful that it's helped me to see my experience and that unforgettable trip in a kinder, calmer light. Thank you, Skinshape.
Last year I lost the love of my life in a horrible car accident. We had lots of trauma that we suppressed and we were so abusive towards each other mentally and physically. The last time I saw him we got into a big fight and I told him how much I hated him and wanted him dead. He ends up going missing and dies all alone. Everyone blamed me and for a while I blamed myself I wanted to take my own life. Instead I just spiraled and slowly started to lose everything and everyone around me. It took months and me surrendering to God to understand. Please hold on tight to your loved ones I would do anything for another chance to see my loved one but I know I’ll see him in heaven. No fight or argument is worth staying mad at your loved one make things right before their time or your time comes. Believe me the regret and guilt can eat you alive.
WHATEVER RELATIONSSHIP YOU FIND,....
It was be different and beautiful, mistakes and lose, cause a "Love wisdom".
You love more, listen better, forgive easy,
You will create Nirvana. CWM
"If only time was kinder, you would still be here"
Man it's been a while since a line has broken me down like this
Losing my way-too-young loved one to depression-almost 2 years later, this music captures the aftermath perfectly. More sentimental than sad. The quiet rhythm driving unrelentingly forward.
If only time was kinder. We truly are just here for an hour.
This one pulls on all the heartstrings. Good song to introspect to. Makes me remember not to take anything for granted. Including today.
True
Love & miss you grandma, it’s been 3 yrs now I believe since I’ve heard your voice or felt your warm embrace. 2020 was a terrible yr overall. I hope to see you again one day abuelita ❤ thank you for everything you did
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Skinshape. Similar chill vibes :) two of my favourite artists
I’m sorry for your loss. I’m sure she’s smiling down on you. Take care
I just lost my best friend and this song took the wind out of me. I've listened to it for years but the lyrics mean something else to me now
I will pray for you 🙏🏽
Sorry for your loss. My best friend passed two weeks ago and this song hit me hard too❤
Going through these comments, it’s crazy to see the range of emotions and memories of loss/love that people associate with this song. I’ve listened to this song over the years with tears of joy and tears of sadness and, therein lies it’s beauty. Just a perfect record from start to finish. Thank you Skinshape!
I just realized that browsing through RUclipss music suggestions is actually soul enrichment. If you don’t do it, it’s actually unhealthy because you end up having the same catalogue of music for years. It doesn’t sound like a problem but it is because it exacerbates the problem of how we live each day the same boring cycle.
Never has a song impacted me as much as this one. I only heard it earlier this year in May through a random artist radio playlist on Spotify. It instantly grabbed me and I've listened to it over 1,000 times without exaggeration. Such a beautiful piece of art.
Listen to their whole discography
I discovered this song (the very first one of Skinshape) in 2018 and I haven't stop to listen to it since then. It always was the song that made me company when none else did, at the moments where I needed support but loneliness was overmuch. It was the kind caress I needed.
Last year, 2020, was a terrifying year for all of us. Too much pain. Back then, when reality overflowed my mind and I couldn't stand by my feet, it was this song that made me smile and made me a bit comfortable and pleaced, wherever I was. Skinshape, I have you in a hug.
Now, I am in a difficult moment, and as usual, I come to this song and I listen to it over and over again, to feel better. Thank you forever, William, for this song. Such a beautiful gift you gave us all.
02:17 If only time was kinder you'd still be here... So true 😔😔❤️🩹🐶🕊️
No one I love has died yet. Yet day after day I'm here listening to this with scenarios playing through my head. I'm just preparing for when the day comes. I'm mourning for my future self. I'm crying for her because I know she won't be able to handle it when it actually happens. Dear mother I hope you'll live longer than me.
Your words concern me.
Believe me, your mother does not want you to check out first.
What she needs is to see you fully develop into the beautiful person for which she has dedicated her whole life preparing.
Only then ,will the agitations in her soul be soothed.
So when the day comes for her to crossover, she will be completely at peace.
Forgive me, if this analysis does not fit the narrative.
I have played this on repeat for 3 days now. Day n night. Those bright lazy groovy soul riffs, the guitar layers, the skiffly breezy drums. Love love love this, Thank you Skinshape for sharing your art :-)
If you watch some of the Dues es Machina documentaries they have a ton of this genre in their movies
🙂
Skinshape is doing exactly what great artists are supposed to - he allows us to heal through the expression of his craft.Wings indeed...
A beautiful reminder of people, family and friends that I have lost in the past 7-8 years!
Family members I kept away from. When I could've been there and brought support. I regret who I was
A bit over a year ago I was having a bad acid trip and this song came on on RUclips and it instantly made me just lay down and enjoy thr moment. This song brought so much fucking joy to me. Skinshape came to me that day and I continue to listen to him almost everytime I trip. Its like he knows..
One day you’re here, next day you are gone. What could this life mean? These are the kinda of questions this song brings to mind. Oddly satisfying like we are excepting our fate. Life is so complicated there is so much to just being alive, the emotions/experiences/memories/sadness and happiness. Just so crazy to think about it all. This is what this music makes me think about.
Wishing I could go back in time. What else is out there in the afterlife. Existence/creation is so sacred
This song makes me cry everytime I hear it. For not only the loss experienced but the joy felt as well. Life is a cycle never to be one way for long.
.. hello i suggest this indie song ((( TIME BY THE IMPURES )VV
Here's the lyrics for you guys:
I didn't know about those other things
I could've been there, but now it's too late
We're only here for one hour, we won't know untill it's gone
Try to find the best, I know you
I didn't know, that you would leave so soon
I didn't try a little harder, to make you smile once more
One day I'll come to find you, wherever you may be
If only time was kinder, you would still be here
This song makes me think of progression. Just the idea of something simply progressing forward, whether it's life, time, or water...
yes
The horns and then the strings at the end. Just wow. I will love this song forever.
I first came across this song when I was 15/16 at school in the Lake District. Everytime I hear it I'm reminded of the of the spring days hanging out with my friends, watching the sunsets in the long grasses looking over the mountains and the Kent Estuary. It allows me to romanticise my teenagehood which is so incredibly precious. It's the most beautiful song. For me, it embodies those strong emotions of joy, freedom, love, and friendship as well as heartbreak and sadness we feel so intensely at that age. It ties in all of my most cherished and beautiful memories and provides me with a sense of place and familiarity when I'm feeling low. If I'm looking to be reflective and need a moment to release any pent-up emotions, this is the song/band I turn towards.
This song reminds me of my trip to see family in Germany last year and my late grandma. I listened to this song with her shortly before I found out she had cancer. She passed June 2020. Ich liebe dich Oma 💓
my great-great grandmother died in early June 2020 too, with 95 years old! I understand she needed to rest, but it doesn't make me miss her any less :( I'm sure your grandma is fine wherever she is
Gotta be one of my favorite songs. I never get sick of it.
What an incredibly beautiful song, so deep❤ the video is amazing! It reminds me how life is constantly changing and when you think you have a perception it evolves into something else. We all lose something in life whether it's a person a perception, a broken promise or sometimes we loose ourselves through the complexities of life. I listened to this song over and over on the way home from work. It made me feel as if one day I will find where I need to be ⚘️
this is my favourite song i’ve ever heard. countless plays over the years for so many occasions. never gets old. thank you
Every single lonly night walk I did last year started with this song. I connect such strong feelings to this one, that whenever I hear it Im back home, feeling all alone and walking through the streets at 3 am thinking about all kinds of stuff, love, relationships, hatred, isolation...
Hear that. I m saying no more
I always loose myself when I'm with someone...been single for a year after a 3yr relationship and it took this time to see all I really needed was me all along...no one else to love me, I needed to love myself first...❤️😊✨
❣️❣️🥺
your words inspire me. I'm going through that same process.
@@coatzinr we have to give our All to ourselves first and be whole before we can give ourselves to someone else. We will get through it. Best wishes to you babe. 🙏✨
It's been 4 years since I've been with anyone. Who knew the scars love would leave. They heal, but they're still there to remind us.
@@randallwitcher55 amén, it makes us stronger. 🙏✨💖
This is one of my favorite songs.. has been on repeat. I have literally listened to it a couple of thousand times no joke... it represents my 2019. Thanks Skinshape so refreshing and nowninhave a video yaaasssss
Giblets n Gravy hahaha same here
same
Same
It represents my 2019, as well. The last year I spent together with my ex-wife before we split.
this is the hardest song on the internet. nothing will ever beat the feeling this song gives me.
Rest in harmony to my hospice patient Cathy. She was only 37 years old. God bless her
I remember having a bad time trying to sleep so i putted some music on my phone, after a while I fall asleep but then suddenly woke up listening the best song I ever heard in my entire life!
Skinshape is wildly inspirational. This video too wow!!! One interpretation: there is only one time in all of history where we are all here on Earth as little humans with all these other beings. It's a crazy miracle that all of us happened to have got thrown here at the same time! We (our lovers, friends, brothers/sisters, fish, flowers, butterflies, birds, mountains, living room couches - all of us) could get sucked into a black hole tomorrow. Love it all while we're here together
Found Skinshape in March of 2019 and boy how lucky I feel to have found one of my favourite bands through chance. Thanks for your music man, it helps me out a lot.
This hits different when you're high and thinkin bout your mom who's no longer here
Especially because I really did not know she'd leave me so soon
I'm sorry rest in peace ❤️
Me too girl. Sending lots of love your way 💗
Thank y'all so much 💜
Ode to Mom...the lyrics hit home...I didn’t know you go away so soon...
💔💯🕊
...ain’t it the truth!💔

I found this song after taking care of my mother during her cancer hospice. I knew every moment we had was on a timeline. When the cancer was actively killing her I gave her a lethal dose of morphine. Then we watched her slip away in peace. Every time I listen to this song I still ball like a baby.
I love this song with all my might. Always starting over from the top. Sad lyrics but it always brings me joy. Always makes me dance. Thank you skinshape.
Haven’t listened to this song in 3 years and so many things have changed around me, appreciate this song way more 💖
RIP grandma. You'll always be here in my heart, til i too pass away.
my great-great grandmother died in early June 2020 too, with 95 years old! I understand she needed to rest, but it doesn't make me miss her any less :( I'm sure your grandma is fine wherever she is 🕊️❣️
It's been 10 years since I lost my grandma who was essentially my mother growing up "if only time were kinder, you would still be here" 🖤💜🖤
i first listened to this song and only paid attention to the melody. i recently revisited it and my heart is shattered. my brother left us on his own accord in 2018 and i wish he didn't every single day.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded
Yea, I’d say Goodbye Horses, One Last Time (H.I.M.), and this song are the 3 most beautiful songs in the history of music. My personal opinion.
Good choices .... completely different vibe but please listen to "honey I miss you" by Tammy Wynette unbelievable song
Escuché esta canción el día en que mi madre falleció y cada vez que la vuelvo a escuchar me recuerda ese momento, ella solo cerró los ojos para siempre. En honor a ella compuse una canción que se llama Broken Pieces y cada vez que la toco con mi banda se me caen las lágrimas.
I listen to music all day every day.. for the past 2 days this has literally been the ONLY song I have listened too... don’t even know the band (my bad), but it’s like a reminder to show unconditional love.. not 4 reciprocation.. just to show luv.
Crazy dawg
Its been a couple of years now of good memories with Skinshape playing on the background, THANK YOU. Can't wait for a few more. Love this. Skinshape is everything that is right in the world
old buildings and places that went out of business along with torn down trees and old friends are what the past consists of so don't take this moment for granted because you could want it back in 10 year's from now.
Never had I had I come across a song that makes me tear up everytime I listen to it.
.. hello i suggest this indie song ((( TIME BY THE IMPURES )
When I come to this song I always believe in me again and continue pursuing my dreams. Enjoy the trip, the end it's just a point.
This song got me out of real bad funk when a good friend of mine passed away. The words hit home like a doorbell to my heart. Thank you Skinshape
Heaven. Heaven up there. Hell down here. Separate us from them. Your blood. Delivering truth. This song is an ode to mankind. What we think we know, we do not. What we think we don't know is instinctively clear within us. A voice like no other in the abyss said to me NOTHING IN THIS LIFE WILL BE EASY. God knows the heart of man. His ways are not our ways. In the end, salvation and eternity await, wether you choose to believe or not. Maranatha
For I didn't know about those other things. And now I do I shall stand in his name. It's the blood. What he did is forever. I thought I knew love until I met Jesus. What he did on the cross was love. I've been separated for over a month. Really hard time right now. 9 years together we found the lord together and now just me and Jesus. I shall never let you go Jesus.
@@HellomuSic1296 The separation is part of the journey. Sometimes they are short seasons and sometimes longer. Stay present with God today and everyday and let all of the yesterdays and tomorrows worry for themselves. There are over 100 scriptures about being in the present. God is able to turn your pain and sadness to His glory. I pray Abba Father reveal himself in such a way to you that no man or woman will ever reign above Him in your heart! 🙏🙌
so many people came into my life and left, sometimes i think of them, i wish i could have them back. but this is life. it's an ever-flowing river.
Amen.
I absolutely love this song. Great music especially the beautiful ending.
this song reminds me of when I was getting out of a break up an the whole winter was just a mess but once spring came I heard this song for the first time taking a walk
Hace un tiempo descubrí esta canción, estoy en el aeropuerto y me dieron unas ganas profundas de escucharla, es como un cariño al alma. Viendo los comentarios me llegué a emocionar. Estamos aquí, ahora. Experimentando la vida, que lindo.
Every listen brings back memories of long, drawn-out walks across campus well into the night. Good thinking music.
haven’t listened to this in years and at the time was just a groovy tune but now it makes me think of my old self around that time and how i lost myself telling myself i was fine .,,, wish i could hug her:c
Everyone’s commenting something sad under this song but to me this song just gives me the vibe of chillin in a coffee shop somewhere drinking coffee and reading a book. Or chillin at home with not much going on just a chill vibe getting stoned something to relax to.
Now that's a mind blowing song!
This song has been bittersweet for the past few months for me. I was mourning the two yr loss of a great friend, my dog had puppies but one didn't make it. Then a week later she was mauled to death by a neighbor dog. "If only time was kinder" guts me every time. It's been really fucking hard these few months w work and life and trying to remember things will be okay. I wish eveyone in these comments finds peace too
Appreciating the song and the video making 👌🏻🔥❤️😍
This sums up nostalgia perfectly. I actually dedicate this song to the time itself, my time.
What a tune!!!!! Thanks for letting me add some pictures ❤️❤️❤️
Mrs Director, congrats
William Bell thank you!
'some pictures', fantastic artwork! thank you for creating!
Great video, very creative
This song is so rich in emotion.
3 years on and its still my favourite song, had it on repeat for well over 2 hours during a bike ride a number of times ❤ 🎉
I cried to this over a breakup. Remembering all the great parts when it was mostly bad. Thank you RUclips for showing me this song again. I almost forgot and I love it
Funny because had I not said goodbye I would've never knew this beautiful songs existed. But reminiscing back in that moment of listen to this song at night in the back seat of the car had I the choice to choose, I would've probably stayed the night in San Antonio.
I’ve lost 6 people within two years. my dad, sister, auntie, brother in law, uncle, and nephew. Now I’m mourning my second oldest sister while she’s still alive. Addiction has changed her drastically. I just recently had my son and my heart broke all over again, realizing he won’t have his auntie the way I remember her, only the memories I have of her.
The hardest part of loss is knowing that time doesn’t stop. The hurt you feel never goes away, you just learn how to live with it. This song is bitter sweet, I’ll never stop listening, it brings up feelings I thought were once lost. I love you always my sweet angels🤍
I just moved to Flagstaff AZ and heard this song about 2 days after. Ironically at 2:37 it shows a mountain range I am quite confident is Mt Humphreys and the San Francisco Mountains. It's a sign...
I'm in the right place.
reading this sounds assuring, glad you found the right place :))
I can't stop listening to this album, thank you so much for making such beautiful music.
