I actually suffer from depression... and this song, always (in a weird way), tells me, keep going, and I feel like, songs like these, are very therapeutic, especially when I feel bad about myself, for whatever reason that caused it.... So THANK YOU COREY TAYLOR, for so many people that you have helped, with your music, and you are a rare one of a kind type of musician, that feels like a psychiatrists chair and tells us, hey, it'll be alright.. just hang in there
I feel you bro. Depression is an awful master. My stress level rises so much that I just want to forget about life. We gotta keep going. Even though I don't know you, I'm pulling for you bro.
I, too, suffer from depression. I have for decades. I find comfort in this song as well. For me, it explains how I feel…maybe even justifies it…hard to explain. It always makes me cry, but also brings some understanding that I do not get from anyone.
I'm right there riding the knife edge right now and I hate it and myself. If it wasn't for my wife and daughter I would have been dead in a ditch somewhere long time ago but I still worry about going over the edge
2021 here. This song was my mantra when my depression had flared last time. I played it over and over for hours, then for days. I got help eventually but until that time this was the only thing I wanted more than solitude.
Belive me, I KNOW exactly what you're talking about, and there were times where I thought about taking my own life, too.... but we just have to keep on going....
What most people don’t get is depression is beyond ones control! For anyone listening. Tomorrow definitely won’t get any better if you’re not here to make it better! Please hang on. God loves you and so do I !
even after finally beating my depression, this song still makes me feel just as hollow as when I was at my worst. This song summed up my existence at my worst, when I nearly ended it all. This song will always have a special spot with me, serving to remind me how close I came to throwing away the best thing I had.
etherealessence You put it very well. Looking down, wanting it over. I tried to do it in my car in s closed garage. didn't work. 2 hrs in there got do hot I couldn't stand it. what saved me? idk, cause all I cared about was myself. divorced just out of jail, no job or food. abusive girlfriend and daughter that would speak to me. never abusive to daughter or ex. or girlfriend. this song is so beautiful sad. I cry whenever o hear it. takes me back to what I wanted. I don't want that anymore, but lonelyness is a demon all it's own to which I cater.
Reminds me of when I was .... younger and inexperienced with dealing with depression..now I'm older I come back to this song when I'm feeling down to remind me even when I'm feeling down, there's somethings that just click and you realize it's not worth it.
There was a period in my mid twenties where I didn't go a day without s**cidal ideation. Even got as far as putting my head in a noose. This song gave me an outlet to carry on. The fact that the title is so close to the word "Brother" constantly made me think of both of mine when I felt that way and that I couldn't bring myself to do that to them. And it made me feel like I had a connection to Corey. 27 I cleaned up, fought for my life and went to Art school. The rest is history. There's now a small part of my life that feels like I owe it to Corey. I carried myself out of Hell.
I've been on and off battling anxiety for the last few years. I didn't know if I would ever feel any peace until I found this song. It has changed my life. Thank you for your beautiful voice Corey Taylor.
Haha I use to know a foster she has my heart and I once had hers but it been a lifetime well half my life we loved each other but not long ago our paths meet once again. But we changed she stayed the same I thought but got two kids now and that made me proud more than I've ever been but me I've changed a lot she went up in the world and I went down. You know as soon as I hear her voice for the first time in 13 years or more It was like my mind overdose it's self for a moment time just slowed down I spent what I thought was a few weeks was about four months it took me close to two years to get my mind right but I'm left wondering what happened I get this fear about me when I think of her but I'm learning to overcome that feeling I just wished it was easier done than said this fear is not easy to live with it's about killed me but it's the reason I'm still here or I would have let go already now it's become normal who would've thought someone could get use to fear of any kind but I have it gets to me at times but nothing like before haha the things that becomes normal to us life is crazy
No song has ever hit me so hard the first time I heard it as this one did. And here I am 20 years later and it still hits me everytime. It just speaks to a part of me that lives completely isolated deep inside me. It lives there alone and the only time its allowed to bleed is when I hear this song.
This song is on Spider-Man soundtrack I had that CD growing up. My dad always let me bring it to listen in the car. I’ll never forget those night drives. He passed away 10 years ago in September. Thank you pops, RIP
That sounds like a wonderful, though heart-wrenching, memory. I watched the film with my father when it was released on DVD. He's been gone nearly 5 years. In a few minutes & one day it would've been his 75th B-day. The anni of his D-Day is Dec 22nd. A candle for both our dearly missed pops.🕯💔🕯
I used to listen to this song so many times on my way to school when I was 17/18, I was so depressed and had zero support. Although the song is beautiful, I can't really enjoy it as much, it kinda holds the essence of this miserable time for me. I saw another comment saying there's a certain beauty in pain, but what depression took from me and how it altered my life when I didn't get the support I needed, there's no beauty in that.
Andy Bradford You're really stupid if you truly think depression isn't real. I lost a friend who committed suicide because he was depressed!! So don't fucking act like a stupid ass troll and say that depression isn't real. I fucking deal with it on a daily basis!!
Nothing hits me like this song. I'll be singing it in the car and next thing I know I'm speeding screaming the lyrics and basically crying. Absolutely insane how beautiful yet frightening it is
Such an underrated song. Corey has such an excellent voice (and SEXY!) and deserved mad respect for his vocals & for the song. At least he still has fans listening in 2020!!! That says alot!!!
Wow just heard this for the first time again since getting off heroine 5 years ago and it monetarily catapulted me right back into that hopeless feeling of just wanting to give up so tired. I listened to this regularly in those days. Praise God I'm clean now and am so blessed to have a wonderful life with the love of family.
I didn’t realize how fortunate I had been for my entire life leading up to the loss of my fiancé. After her passing the hole I found myself in was so deep, I felt like I could never climb out. This song summed up my everyday for a long while. Those of you facing this monster that is depression please seek out help be it from family, friends, or a professional. Do it for yourself and those who love you. We need no more lost souls.
My fiance passed 2yrs ago when we were in a car accident.. I made it and he did not.. I have been where you have been and it is hard to keep fighting but keep trying. Keep pushing forward. It's going to hurt like hell and some days I don't feel like getting outta bed... I do though. To honor his memory and to show him that the woman he loved is a fighter. I'm sorry for your loss, I would say it gets better but, it's been 2 yrs and still hurts. Not as bad, but the pain will always be there. You just replace it with smiles and memories and you will be okay.
@@ljrayburn322 You have fought these last 4 months though.. there were times in the last 2yrs after my accident that I wanted it all to just be over.. I lost EVERYTHING all in one shot and I'm still here honoring the memory of the man I loved and lost. Would your fiance want you to keep fighting? How about your family? It sucks, believe me, I know first hand... You can get threw this though. If you want someone who understands reply back stating such and I'll give you my info to talk.
The pain of losing a fiance, a real fiance, a true partner, confidant & best friend, with the promise of a life together, is ... a fate worse than death. When I lost her I lost a month & a half of my life to PTSD induced amnesia, many, many years ago. It also warped many of my memories of the times we shared together. Most of the memories have returned in the 28 years since then & I more or less remember the relationship we shared before hand. I also pieced some of the month & a half that I lost back together again from half remembered dream like occurrences & from witness statements. When it happened to me the hole in my chest was inconsolable & inconceivably painful. I couldn't think straight. I would either sleep & sleep & sleep ... or I'd be up 3-4 days in a row just staring off into space. I came close, real close, to ending it all. I felt my purpose in life had expired & that I was of no use to anyone any longer. It wasn't my family or my friends that kept me here; It was her. If I did what I had planned I knew she would never know peace. I lived on for her & her alone. I went on to find love again. Got married, we have two children together & though it was rough it was pretty good. A couple years ago I had a couple of TIAs (a couple of minor strokes) & they messed with my head. I lost a good deal of my short term memory & it effected my ability to formulate speech. I constantly pause to search for the right words I want to use or panic into trying to think of an alternate word. At 46 I can't work anymore for a number of reasons. My relationship with my wife & children isn't that great anymore either. My wife will be listening to something I'm saying, I'll pause to search for a word & she'll go back to what she was doing even though I hadn't finished saying what I was saying. My son, with whom I used to be particularly close, now waves his hand in a circular motion as if to tell me to summarize what I'm saying because he wants to get back to his video game. (He's 21 BTW.) I can't work, the level of chores I can do have greatly diminished, I'm no longer of any tangible value to my family, our close/cozy conversations are gone & all of my friends have moved on since it happened. Sometimes I really do think I don't need to be; Especially now.
I recently heard this song for the first time and immediately feel in love with it, but the lyrics especially. I sent the lyrics to my best friend and he replied "Elsa... what kinda songs do you listen to?😂"... he knows I love rock music, and I've told him how much songs with meaning resonate with me, and how much I connect with rock songs, like this one. I guess he hasn't put the pieces together, not that he should. I didn't have the heart to tell him this song is exactly how I feel- I don't have the heart to tell anyone. They don't need to bother.
I see him trying..see him fighting..see the fear .. def see the depression...I see the testing... Maybe I saw way too late... And if so it will always be my greatest regret. But until the day there is only one of us on Earth....and even then...it's only him. Despite what he believes.... Only him. I believe in him even if he doesn't...and I def finally believe in myself...and that's because of his kick in my ass... You may not realize but my heart is yours and even if yours is not mine, I appreciate the man you are and thank you....infact owe you for helping me see the damn light to get my shit together for my kid and I. ....and hopefully us.. not giving up ... Not quitting. Even if we never be....in my heart you will stay...to help pushing, motivating, and giving me that swift kick when needed. I know who you doubt me around... I'll prove ,because I know better. Even if you never know... So keep those eyes open.. keep your heart guarded...it's okay.. I don't deserve another chance but to my heart I must be true....and that's you my love..you know who you are...but just in case Mr. Asshole who brightens my life..mjp And I know you will see this. So keep pushing me away...I will turn away from you..I will leave you alone if you ask...but will be standing arms wide open if you ever return..and I will show u just how loyal I can be even before that. I very much am in love with you....you and only you..put out there for the world to see
I am ready to end my pain once and for all. This song is my life to a tee. I am tired of trying only to keep failing. My family would be so much better off without me. I am getting too tired of trying to be strong. All I ever see anymore is darkness where light once roamed so long ago. Later peeps!!
This is one of ny favorite songs. It expresses so many. Emotions. Sadness, anger the feeling you aren't good enough. Its not about giving up, its about fighting, holding on til you bleed. No person should make anyone that doesn't look like them feel bad about their life. Depression is a terrible disease to suffer from. Keep fighting each day.
This is my song when I'm depressed along with a lot of others. This is my song when I'm depressed I blast on my phone while at the beach at night. Best feeling ever is just being at the beach at night when nobody else is there. Just watching the moon dance across the oceans surface.
Child of a narcissist, this describes most of my life. In the worst moments it's a comfort to know I'm not alone. It often feels like a meaningless existence in a world of intense suffering and no joy.
👍 same here brother it opened my eyes to see that life was very important and I had control of how long it would last or how fast it would pass and I wanted to live as long as possible but never realized how bad I was doing until this song one day triggered and I had to wake up and face the truth that I was killing myself or would try to on a daily basis with alcohol wishing I wouldn't wake up to the nightmare all over again the struggle and pain .🙏 God bless brother
It's still there music comes in season every song may not be significant to everyone but hey if it impacts 1 person in a positive way when they needed it ,it means something
I was listening this song, while I was in a bus and outside came a powerful rain and that feeling of sadness and compassion surrounded me. I cried when I was looking at that rain and I've felt myself an inferior person in this world.
Song about sums up my world. I wish I died and didn't live a zombie hides my face..love it. How could 500 people hate this, could it be they are soulless beings, sheepables just existing without a soul
Wish I was too dead to cry My self-affliction fades Stones to throw at my creator Masochists to which I cater You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds Wish I was too dead to care If indeed I cared at all Never had a voice to protest So you fed me shit to digest I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season For this, I gave up trying One good turn deserves my dying You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds Wish I'd died instead of lived A zombie hides my face Shell forgotten with its memories Diaries left with cryptic entries And you don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep slipping farther But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds You don't need to bother, I don't need to be I'll keep on slipping farther But once I hold on I'll never live down my deceit
The thing with depression is you realize that life is hell and humans have ruined everything but in turn if you end it all you will never know what it might be to really live and enjoy life at it's fullest.....
I never really listen to this song until know my fiance always played this song i knew he was depressed but on march22 2019 he took his own life i wish i would of listened sooner to all his song maybe i could of saved him again i miss him dearly R.I.P. EARL MCCARROLL love sherry
Corey Taylor has contributed so much to the music world, but if this song was the only thing he did, it would've been enough. It's that powerful of a song.
A song for any one who has looked down into eternity. The pain, desolation, loneliness or addiction are pain most others don't understand. Suicide is real. We need to make it mainstream instead of sweeping it underneath the rug.Too many of us.
This was 2004 for me. Its 2021 and i knew all along where id be now. I knew back then i was entering a path of slow demise yet somehow im still alive when i should be dead.
I hope you’re doing well. Every single person has a purpose and a reason to be here, even if it isn’t clear what exactly that purpose or reason is. Every person you’ve made smile, every friend you’ve been there for, and every person you’ve ever helped are all examples of your purpose and your reason to continue on. Life can beat the shit out of you but just make sure you always hit back harder.
Music that means something can be found 50 yrs ago or today you just have to open your soul and mind to what they say but none the less a great ass song!!! Through the glass is also a good song
This song is so meaningful it's inexplicable. I feel like it reaches into your depression and lets it all out into the song albeit sounding like a suicide song to some degree. I know this the hard way cause I lost my father that way 9 years ago June 7th so I know how it can be applied to suicidal tendencies. It implies in some parts the way we don't feel like we're worth anything to this world other than taking its air. I've cried so many times to this song it's not even funny.
I finally decided to read the lyrics to this song and other song my fiance always listened to especially alot before he took his own life i knew he was depressed and was suicidal because he has tried before but this time he was so quiet but this song tells it all i wish i would of listened sooner im so lost without him
@@earlmccarrolliv3511 , listening to the song earlier wouldn't have stopped him; it's not your fault please know that. what you need to do is live for the both of you, he couldn't take the hardship of life but you can and you should. i've had suicidal thoughts since i was 9-10 and the only thing that stopped me is my faith and my family with the thought that if i killed myself i would kill my family. do whatever it takes to keep living without him: if you need to be mad be mad, if you need to feel happy he found peace be happy, just don't lose yourself as he did.
How about in 2022? I have my lips just over the water. This is what keeps me going I want to see how so many things end up. Keep your head up and remember you got this.
@@GrazsPlace integration and customs has been taking people fleeing from war torn countries; detaining them and sending them back into harms way. The indifference of Americans to this shows krazytrubble has truth to the claim of not being able to change. While it goes deeper then the carrot the meaning of the song is the suffering induced by falling from ones faith. The root of this vile dehumanization of our fellow apes
@@zer-op2gq I don't understand how my comment got deleted, but I responded to you a few hours ago and just said I have no idea what you're talking about in that last comment of yours. You'll have to get more specific about whatever you're talking about. And just for the record, I fucking despise Trump. I voted against him both elections and I would vote for a deaf, dumb and blind dog with 3 legs, before I'd vote for Trump.
Still listening in October 2023... One of my all time favs!!! Oddly, this song has saved my life on multiple occasions. But, hell I'm odd AF so if ya knew me it really wouldn't sound so odd ✌️
You're comment reminds me of my favorite quotes. "It means a lot to me that my darkness can connect with your darkness and make it OK." - James Hetfield

Their is no beauty in pain only self clarity and lessons learned

My wife will be listening to something I'm saying, I'll pause to search for a word & she'll go back to what she was doing even though I hadn't finished saying what I was saying. My son, with whom I used to be particularly close, now waves his hand in a circular motion as if to tell me to summarize what I'm saying because he wants to get back to his video game. (He's 21 BTW.)
I can't work, the level of chores I can do have greatly diminished, I'm no longer of any tangible value to my family, our close/cozy conversations are gone & all of my friends have moved on since it happened. Sometimes I really do think I don't need to be; Especially now.
I love when a song can take you back to a memory, smell, feeling. July 2024 and still great
There's an older country song that alludes to that in it's entirety, I believe it's called "The Song Remembers When."
I recently heard this song for the first time and immediately feel in love with it, but the lyrics especially. I sent the lyrics to my best friend and he replied "Elsa... what kinda songs do you listen to?😂"... he knows I love rock music, and I've told him how much songs with meaning resonate with me, and how much I connect with rock songs, like this one. I guess he hasn't put the pieces together, not that he should. I didn't have the heart to tell him this song is exactly how I feel- I don't have the heart to tell anyone. They don't need to bother.
This music has always resonated with me over any other
Fuck.
You just told everyone. And people like you and me agree, You Do Need To Be! Please Stay, for your future and everyone that loves YOU! PLEASE!!!
YES YOU DO
I hope you got through it all
I'm from the ninetys I'm still listening to this song. I'm lucky IV came this far
I see him trying..see him fighting..see the fear .. def see the depression...I see the testing... Maybe I saw way too late... And if so it will always be my greatest regret. But until the day there is only one of us on Earth....and even then...it's only him. Despite what he believes.... Only him. I believe in him even if he doesn't...and I def finally believe in myself...and that's because of his kick in my ass... You may not realize but my heart is yours and even if yours is not mine, I appreciate the man you are and thank you....infact owe you for helping me see the damn light to get my shit together for my kid and I. ....and hopefully us.. not giving up ... Not quitting. Even if we never be....in my heart you will stay...to help pushing, motivating, and giving me that swift kick when needed. I know who you doubt me around... I'll prove ,because I know better. Even if you never know... So keep those eyes open.. keep your heart guarded...it's okay.. I don't deserve another chance but to my heart I must be true....and that's you my love..you know who you are...but just in case Mr. Asshole who brightens my life..mjp
And I know you will see this. So keep pushing me away...I will turn away from you..I will leave you alone if you ask...but will be standing arms wide open if you ever return..and I will show u just how loyal I can be even before that. I very much am in love with you....you and only you..put out there for the world to see
I am ready to end my pain once and for all. This song is my life to a tee. I am tired of trying only to keep failing. My family would be so much better off without me. I am getting too tired of trying to be strong. All I ever see anymore is darkness where light once roamed so long ago. Later peeps!!
It gets better. If you won't think of yourself think of the people who love you. God bless you
Wtf dude. You need to find out why you keep letting them bring you down. Someone evil is around you man.
I hope you’re okay, and doing better brother. You are loved
It's crazy how music like this have seem to vanish. Gosh I miss the good ol days
Deamon....sounds like my Ronnie.... xoxo Heather
Such a good song. lyrics were artistically chosen. melody is somber but still rocks. I can really feel the ups and downs of the melody.
This is one of ny favorite songs. It expresses so many. Emotions. Sadness, anger the feeling you aren't good enough. Its not about giving up, its about fighting, holding on til you bleed. No person should make anyone that doesn't look like them feel bad about their life. Depression is a terrible disease to suffer from. Keep fighting each day.
I used to cruise around darkened streets in a sentinel in GTA3 to this song... Even in 2021 this song evokes chills.
This is my song when I'm depressed along with a lot of others. This is my song when I'm depressed I blast on my phone while at the beach at night. Best feeling ever is just being at the beach at night when nobody else is there. Just watching the moon dance across the oceans surface.
Enjoy your life girl... It's precious til it ends
@@michaelcraig8471 thank you. I'm hoping with my new move everything will change.
Careful out there. Not so safe out
You're a legend if you're listening to this in 2021!
2024!
This song STILL gives me chills. I absolutely love it.2020 has been a weird year. Thank goodness for music.
Such powerful meaning, blinded by ego, most will not fully understand this song.
This is one song they overplayed on the radio....but just enuf to stick it.....IN YOUR HEAD for LIFE! Still can't get enuf of it!
Found this gem a few months ago, its been my comfort ever since
Child of a narcissist, this describes most of my life. In the worst moments it's a comfort to know I'm not alone. It often feels like a meaningless existence in a world of intense suffering and no joy.
This song saved my life... Thank you
It saves mine still to this day
... every day
Raymy Vasquez god bless you and your future buddy. It’s has me too!!
👍 same here brother it opened my eyes to see that life was very important and I had control of how long it would last or how fast it would pass and I wanted to live as long as possible but never realized how bad I was doing until this song one day triggered and I had to wake up and face the truth that I was killing myself or would try to on a daily basis with alcohol wishing I wouldn't wake up to the nightmare all over again the struggle and pain .🙏 God bless brother
I love you
Great song with deep insightful lyrics! ❤️😊 🎵
This song feels like he/they were looking directly inside of my spirit, heart, soul, brain, eyes, etc when these lyrics were written...
The only and best song that can carry my pain in my heart , and let me cry like a baby to let the pain out , till i slip further !!
Feel corey's voice it carries the raw emotion of the song, tortured soul! Like mine.
Fukking GENIUS of our time. Recognize enlightenment 🙌🏻🙌🏻👁️🌟
2021 song hits harder than ever...
Downloaded a ton Slipknot the other day and threw a few StoneSour songs in there. Gave me some serious nostalgia man. These lyrics are so good.
My soul was spoken to through these lyrics
i don't even remember when i first heard this.... but glad i found it again... saw it live on youtube and it all came back
Hell yeah 👏 give a thumbs 👍 if you listening to this in 2019 💯
Always
👍
👍you got me
Charles Boswell ❤️❤️
👍
Listening but it's crazy. You always had a voice. I gave up everything for you
Whatever happened to music that actually meant something, like this
Everything changed
Yes
Kinda went south.....
It's still there, you just got to look for it.
It's still there music comes in season every song may not be significant to everyone but hey if it impacts 1 person in a positive way when they needed it ,it means something
I was listening this song, while I was in a bus and outside came a powerful rain and that feeling of sadness and compassion surrounded me. I cried when I was looking at that rain and I've felt myself an inferior person in this world.
Even in my darkest days this song can bring happiness to me
Song about sums up my world. I wish I died and didn't live a zombie hides my face..love it. How could 500 people hate this, could it be they are soulless beings, sheepables just existing without a soul
Love this song! And it's always helped to explain exactly what I feel!!
Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds
Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me shit to digest
I wish I had a reason, my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying
You don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds
Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten with its memories
Diaries left with cryptic entries
And you don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on, I won't let go til it bleeds
You don't need to bother, I don't need to be
I'll keep on slipping farther
But once I hold on
I'll never live down my deceit
I love you Joe. If you are listening to this because you are slipping come find me and let me hold you. You are never alone my love.
I love that
M- my name is Joe.
I wish someone special whispered just that in my ear.
Touches my soul...great great song
Sometimes the worst place you can be at is in your head
That's why God says be not conformed to the world, but transformed by the renewing of your mind.
That's why God says be not conformed to the world, but transformed by the renewing of your mind.
It’s true, if I stay out my head. Everything really is okay.
2021 and this song is still on repeat love stone sour and slipkot nice to hear corey just singing once in awhile
The thing with depression is you realize that life is hell and humans have ruined everything but in turn if you end it all you will never know what it might be to really live and enjoy life at it's fullest.....
Or it's the music people listen too
@@seanbogren5967 that's fair
Amen too bad ideas led to death
I'm totally listening...Music Is My Everything!!!
I never really listen to this song until know my fiance always played this song i knew he was depressed but on march22 2019 he took his own life i wish i would of listened sooner to all his song maybe i could of saved him again i miss him dearly R.I.P. EARL MCCARROLL love sherry
Music like this is what helps me through the day , depression sucks !!!!!
Corey Taylor has contributed so much to the music world, but if this song was the only thing he did, it would've been enough. It's that powerful of a song.
So powerful
Only song that contests it would be his other song "Snuff"
This song defines my life. Corey Taylor is a genius. When I hurt I listen to this song . He understands 😢
This hits hard af
For some reason the official versions are both censored. Props for uploading the original.
MANY THANKS FOR THE WAY BACK!
Corey voice is so good
Gives me chills every time, without fail
Yes , this is a classic.
Solid,tight great lyrics from the heart!!!!
2023, still a great song!
Depressing day. Even in 2020 this is the only song that would fit it.
For sure
I love you too
That is my day today. Hope thing improved for you.
A song for any one who has looked down into eternity. The pain, desolation, loneliness or addiction are pain most others don't understand. Suicide is real. We need to make it mainstream instead of sweeping it underneath the rug.Too many of us.
This was 2004 for me. Its 2021 and i knew all along where id be now. I knew back then i was entering a path of slow demise yet somehow im still alive when i should be dead.
I feel that 💜
Me too…
I hope you’re doing well. Every single person has a purpose and a reason to be here, even if it isn’t clear what exactly that purpose or reason is. Every person you’ve made smile, every friend you’ve been there for, and every person you’ve ever helped are all examples of your purpose and your reason to continue on. Life can beat the shit out of you but just make sure you always hit back harder.
One of the most underated songs ever
Such a beautiful song❤️Love Corey Taylor🤘🏻
Brother
Music that means something can be found 50 yrs ago or today you just have to open your soul and mind to what they say but none the less a great ass song!!! Through the glass is also a good song
Anyone listening in 2024
Just us who are broken...
@@dimisilang just like a broken plate can't be fixed
September
❤
Hits home!so real i live it every day!
THIS SONG MAKES ME FEEL THE FEELS
Same!! ALL the feels!
Heard this song in a store yesterday and I remembered how much I liked it so I found it again
Sound is great! Thanks for this
Still listening in 2022. One of my favorite songs. ❤ could be written for me.
This song is so meaningful it's inexplicable. I feel like it reaches into your depression and lets it all out into the song albeit sounding like a suicide song to some degree. I know this the hard way cause I lost my father that way 9 years ago June 7th so I know how it can be applied to suicidal tendencies. It implies in some parts the way we don't feel like we're worth anything to this world other than taking its air. I've cried so many times to this song it's not even funny.
I agree about the inferiority complex. My inferiority is my Autism.
Freedom 2016 Maybe. Nice catch. And thank you.
Corey wrote this song after his attempted suicide as a teen. He was in a serious state of depression after his gf at the time broke up with him.
I finally decided to read the lyrics to this song and other song my fiance always listened to especially alot before he took his own life i knew he was depressed and was suicidal because he has tried before but this time he was so quiet but this song tells it all i wish i would of listened sooner im so lost without him
@@earlmccarrolliv3511 , listening to the song earlier wouldn't have stopped him; it's not your fault please know that. what you need to do is live for the both of you, he couldn't take the hardship of life but you can and you should. i've had suicidal thoughts since i was 9-10 and the only thing that stopped me is my faith and my family with the thought that if i killed myself i would kill my family. do whatever it takes to keep living without him: if you need to be mad be mad, if you need to feel happy he found peace be happy, just don't lose yourself as he did.
Legitimately one of the best songs in history. Deal with it.
brings back so many good memories
How about in 2022? I have my lips just over the water. This is what keeps me going I want to see how so many things end up. Keep your head up and remember you got this.
No one cares what years your listening skills to the song. It's a great song so it's timeless.
Someone had to say it... Even if this is a version of the same type of like bait.
Another exceptional artist...
Still 2020. Seems no one can change. It hurts, I don’t wanna feel.
Because, I dont know when it started to occur, but our country is in a downward spiral. Donald Trump is America's Hitler
@@GrazsPlace ✊ stand against ice
@@zer-op2gq ???
@@GrazsPlace integration and customs has been taking people fleeing from war torn countries; detaining them and sending them back into harms way. The indifference of Americans to this shows krazytrubble has truth to the claim of not being able to change. While it goes deeper then the carrot the meaning of the song is the suffering induced by falling from ones faith. The root of this vile dehumanization of our fellow apes
@@zer-op2gq I don't understand how my comment got deleted, but I responded to you a few hours ago and just said I have no idea what you're talking about in that last comment of yours. You'll have to get more specific about whatever you're talking about. And just for the record, I fucking despise Trump. I voted against him both elections and I would vote for a deaf, dumb and blind dog with 3 legs, before I'd vote for Trump.
Still listening in October 2023... One of my all time favs!!! Oddly, this song has saved my life on multiple occasions. But, hell I'm odd AF so if ya knew me it really wouldn't sound so odd ✌️
Stone sour needs a new album. I know Cory is focused on Slipknot right now.but this side of him is just so picefull
He's said he's working on a new stone sour album I think
They have a new out listen to tired that's new
Mario Best dad Hydrograd came out 2017 so it’s not really that new.
Ohne Worte 😢❤❤❤
Die helfen mir gerade sehr ❤❤
This Song explains My Depression and How I constantly feel.
You're comment reminds me of my favorite quotes. "It means a lot to me that my darkness can connect with your darkness and make it OK." - James Hetfield
Me too
Me too
Listening to Stone Sour always. ♥️♥️♥️
