    I’m not sure who Tyler is referring to, but when I met my fiancée, my grandpa was in the hospital with Stage 4 lung cancer and he passed away before she could meet him. This song wrecks me.

    When I went to see them in Concert, Tyler took a moment during the song to explain who the song was dedicated (because not everyone knows. My dad sure wouldn't have). Anyways, ended up saying that although his grandfather had passed away, Tyler had known him to be someone that held on to the very end - and how he planned to do the same himself.

  • @nearlyvvitches
    @nearlyvvitches 5 лет назад +4

    for people that are new/confused about the song meaning: this song was written about tyler’s grandpa who has since passed away.
    “my middle name, my goodbye.” tyler’s full name is tyler robert joseph. his middle name is his grandfather’s first name, which is robert. i think the goodbyes are pretty self-explanatory :(
    “you were one of those classic ones, i wish she knew you.” i think he means that his grandfather was someone that had always been there in the family, maybe a constant that they could always count on to be there? and the “she” i believe, is referring to his niece, who had been recently born and how he wishes there had been more time for her to get to know him.

    • @floraostberg

      @James Scheuermann incase you don't know irreverent is a proper word which means "being disrespectful for the things which are to be taken seriously". It's irreverent as Tyler wrote this song for his late grandfather and every lyric carries an intimate emotion. So making fun of it is clearly irreverent .
      Now go buy a dictionary, improve your vocabulary and make sure you don't make yourself look like a dumbass next time trying to correct someone when you don't know stuff!

  • @reharm_reality
    @reharm_reality 3 года назад +1

    I was so afraid of dying until my grandfather died. He beat awful illnesses twice and both times had accepted that he would likely die. When the time came that he was truly dying, he was ready, and completely at peace with his life. He died in his own home, with his wife and kids with him. I used to go back and forth between wanting to die and being afraid to die, and I thought those were my only options. Now I want to die peacefully at an old age. I hope I can be at peace with my life like my grandpa was, and I will be so happy to see him again when I go. I was afraid his death would bring chaos to my family, but somehow it brought peace because he taught us all not to be afraid of scary things. Since he wasn't afraid to die, it was less scary to let him go. It was like a final act of love to all of us.

    I just saw this live in Pittsburgh last night! I was so surprised they did it(it's my favorite song from the album.) The song hits so close to home for me because my gram is battling thru Alzheimers too. Even tho we try to visit her once a week, she still has trouble remembering who we are. Anyone who knows someone with it, understands. When they played it, I sang and danced with lots of crying of course. I hope I get to see them again in the future!

    i was listening to this song in class and not expecting anything because before this song didn't really hit me in any way it was just another bop youknow? oh well my aunt died recently of liver disease and this song feels so familiar to me now because of her and i was just chilling and having a good time until the chorus and it hit me "this is how i feel, fuck. i miss her" and i started crying and i excused myself and walked away from the class and to the hall and my friend was there and he asked if i was okay and i just smiled but he saw i wasn't fine since i get emotional so rarely, he hugged me and my bf happened to show up and he asked about it and we sat together in the hall for a few minutes of me crying and him hugging me and telling me it's okay, this song means a lot to me now, and im so sad it had to be made, but at the same time, im glad tyler made it. it helped me : a person with issues with emotions and just cant cry or laugh, to finally feel, i cried for the first time in so long. and im thankful, ah, thank you hshshsh imma go cry about it now i miss my aunt

    I want to believe so much that heaven exits so my grandpa can be in it, I have so much regrets and things to say. He was supposed to be tomorrow having fun, dancing and laughing like he loved to do on his birthdays, but now he’s underground. I know that’s life but damn it hurts. This is about him, I’ll miss him forever

    On my 19th birthday,
    My grandfather wished me well.
    In the garage, smoking a cigarette, I sat in relative comfort.
    My grandfather, deep into his battle with cancer, and horribly, mentally disconnected from the groundwork of reality due to countless concussive slips, trips, and falls, turned from his workbench and faced me:
    "Happy birthday", he said in an unfamiliar manner.
    I remember being surprised that he could remember the date.
    I remember he told me he could not remember how to use his computer.
    To him, the keys were nonsensical,
    Any button he pressed would result in a foreign response.
    And his once incredibly intellectual mind had been damaged to the extent that he could hardly follow the press of a button to the result on a screen.
    His mind was too damaged.
    Perhaps if he was not a drinker, he would have found himself to be a far more comprehensive man as he approached death.
    But he wasn't,
    And all things considered,
    Maybe I am no different.
    But the manner in which his face resolved to a smile,
    The way his varicose arms extended to the heavens,
    The path his voice took when relating to me his pride and admiration,
    An exclamation of, "Happy birthday".
    His last words.
    Immediately following this, he erupted into what would be his last seizure.
    Collapsing from the chair of which he had sat for decades,
    My grandfather writhed in agony on the concrete of a garage that he had called home for the nearly 30 years of his life,
    And without regard for the medicine my grandmother deposited into his mouth,
    Without care for the projects he had yet to complete,
    Without consideration for the life he had yet to live,
    My grandfather died.
    "Happy birthday"
    He spent the last 24 hours of his life in a bed that was not his own.
    Only feet away from his actual bed, he laid unconscious and disconnected, on a twin-sized mattress barely separated from the queen that he had spent a third of his life in.
    I remember when my grandmother awoke me,
    "He's gone, grandpa is gone"
    I knew it was coming,
    Right when she woke me up,
    I knew exactly why she did.
    For the past 24 hours my grandfather's heart had continued to beat,
    Though mentally and spiritually his soul had already passed on.
    Gone was the man who had raised me,
    departed was the man who had given me countless gifts in knowing fact, and science, and reliability, and truth.
    Now the body of such a man had given its last breath.
    And he's gone.
    And I'll never have the opportunity to speak with him again.
    It's been well over two years now,
    And I still break apart when thinking of him.
    I miss him dreadfully,
    I can't think of him without collapsing into tears.
    But I know that were he here,
    He'd encourage me to persevere.
    He always had faith in me,
    He always believed in me,
    And until my dying days, his love will be the backbone to my success.
    Grandpa,
    You're a legend in my mind,
    Always and forever.
