- Counterfeit - Letter to the Lost
Lyrics:
"It’s been a little while now
since I last saw your face
And i’m hoping that in death
that you have found a better place
I still think about your childhood
And the future you did waste
I guess you felt you don’t belong here
and that haunts me everyday
And I know that I get lonely
When I think about your smile
And there’s moments when I know
I could have helped or should have tried
And I’m sorry I get angry
When I know what you have lost
You’re not alone
I just wish you could have told us
you had gotta go
There’s so many things un-answered
So many things I wish I’d known
And I know where you belong
and it’s not here upon this earth
I just wish you could have told me
and not given me this curse
And I know that I get lonely
When I think about your smile
And there’s moments when I know
I could have helped or should have tried
And I’m sorry I get angry
When I know what you have lost
But now you’re home"

#TogetherWeAreStronger
I am glad I discovered Jamie bower thanks to stranger things because he is an incredible human and I have a lot of respect for him and his music. I don’t usually get emotional for music but this one actually made me shed a tear.
Right? This became one of my new favorite songs. I wish I had known about him years ago
@@averydoggo1187 samee well i knew him ever since 2018
same!
@@averydoggo1187 SAME

I think this is about someone who took their life. You can literally hear the pain and confusion in your voice. Never stop writing you are so incredibly good at it.
It's about his friend Ivan who killed himself
I agree
It is. An old friend of Jamie's
@@ykbeccaa can you say how way did you know that?
@@lirtos5515 Jamie had told it in a few interviews.
Smells like NIRVANA spirit. He looks like Kurt in any angle.
agree!
My first thought was like :"just almost like Nirvana " :')
He doesn't really at all in my opinion, however he sounds similar at certain points eg the raspiness.
Look I really like Jamie, but Kurt is very different to him.
damn No that's men of nirva is patetic he suicide himself
is it just me or are you getting some nirvana vibes too? Jamie great job!!! I love your style!! can't wait for more!
I've thought that for awhile too!
i thought exact the same i love it
Yesss i know right
+just a fanvergent you love reading too?
+jennytsak it sounds more Nick Cave ish to me...
2021 and I'm still here... I'm just amazed how someone can show their feelings trough their voice. And you can't help, but to feel it with that person, also with lyrics where you see that someone question themselves if they could do something for things to be different.
This is underrated. 🖤
2022!!!!!! This song is amazing...
@@mariamladenova1312 indeed 💯
I lost my uncle and grandfather to suicide. I never thought I'd be dealing with it twice in my life... then I lost a guy that was like a brother to me and my husband to suicide. I would never wish that pain on anyone. It haunts you every day thinking could I have done more? Why does all the men I look up to... That i love have to leave me? This song explains everything. I'm so fucking angry. I miss them so much. I love you Chris, grandpa and Matt. I'll see y'all again one day. I'm glad you're in a better place but I'm still here... And this earth is so much darker without y'all. Fuck man... got me in my feels with this one. It's a beautiful song you guys! I never thought anyone would put into words what I feel. Thank you.
Jesus I am so sorry that’s horrible
it has been 14 years but i still have these thoughts he sings about.
Well f**K I was listening to counterfeit like I normally do and this came on, I just lost my childhood best friend to suicide 4 days ago and I just lost it I broke down crying. This song has never hit me this hard before but I want to thank this song as well because this is exactly how I feel! Thank you counterfeit, thank you Jamie and all the other boys just thank you.
So sorry for your loss, it's such a hard way to lose someone. I agree with you, this song is so real, so raw and so intense. It really hits all the emotions one feels in this situation - I think often people don't realize how much anger is inside of the grief that comes along with a loss to suicide.
So sorry 💖
I’m so sorry you have lost your friend in such a traumatic way. My heart goes out to you and I hope you have found positive ways to deal with this pain. Meditation, music, creating art, going for a walk, are just a few of the tools I use to help me through the days of dealing with my loved one who died by suicide. After 13 years you learn some things work and some don’t. Anyway, I wish you many happy memories of your friend. 🙏🏼♥️
I could have been that friend to my friends in multiple differenr situations.I guess it gets easier living with those thoughts over time.
hope you're doing well now morgenstern. ♡
'The Return of Good Music', is what this revolution shall be named.
I love your comment and I love your username (mostly the first part)
This song is so meaningful and deep , unlike the songs on the radio these days which makes this song 100x's better. Make more music like this! It's amazing
I though the same :)
When you're starting out your emo phase xD
Mate, the songs on the radio were never good.
I'm a huge Nirvana fan and i like how this song is a bit Nirvana style:-)
Me asking myself why I didn't know Jamie before when I literally see him many times in the movies that I liked!!! He's amazing in everything he does!!! What a wonderful human.
This song puts tears in my eyes, It really does. Jamie, you have an amazing voice and you have so much talent. This song has so much meaning to it and it's so powerful. Keep up the good work and I hope to see you in Australia one day.
I couldn't agree more.
totally the same here man... he wrote it about a friend who committed suicide... deep shit...
Zoe Brianna he's an angel. i Hope to see him in april, when they will come rome
It's my "must listen to" song for awful days. I somehow keep going back here.
5 years later still my favourite song.
JAMIE IS AMAZING I LOVE HIM SO MUCHH
officially a fan
YES HE IS
+bsafm 5sos fam:)
Don't think Aro and Marcus would approve of this...
But omfg I'm screaming this is so good!
But Clary likes it !
I understood that reference.
Jesus I love his style of music. I'm trying to find more from his band and seriously love this.
1225kmed they're releasing their first albumn this march
thanks :)
As do I, it is so very beautiful. This song in particular has most assidously saved my life.
This is so good, these guys are the next generation of punk rock
Wow totally felt the spirit of Kurt Cobain there. Love you Jamie that was beautiful!!!
As did I... Very reminiscent of the In Utero demos.
Honestly I'm so glad I discovered this song, it's so relatable for me…Jamie is such a strong man, I'm so freaking proud of him
Once my music teacher told me "when we can't stand up, when life won us by all means and whenever you try to speak only tears come to you... Then is when the best creative side of yours come out. We find art in misery, we find gold in pain. " I think if she ever listens to this, she'll say "told you"
2020, still listening. Thank you
🤘
this makes me stay
Was just wondering are you still with us?
Jamie your voice is so beautiful and emotional, and it couples so amazingly with your guitar, as well as the rest of Counterfeit. You guys are wonderful and I feel like you're going to be going places in the not too far future
the Shadowhunter band
Are those dislikes the result of missing the like button? Cause who could have dislike such a masterpiece?
I'm pretty sure this talks about suicide and jesus man hits my heart so hard.
He sad it's for a friend who committed suicide
+Mary R Man it rips me up inside because I lost my friend ten years ago to suicide and that was a hard place.
I'm so sorry suicide sucks
Yeah it does. It was a haunting time for sure
+Legend of the City of Glass So sorry for your loss. I have also lost someone very important in my life for suicide. This song means a lot to me.
This song was honestly incredible live. The story and the passion was incredible.
My friend tried to kill herself almost on this exact date in 2020. One of the worst days of my life. But I am so incredibly thankful she made it out alive. It has been a struggle, but she is here. This song brings tears to my eyes just thinking about the events. But it is so so beautiful. Love it. Love yall
This song means a lot to me. Things I have felt inside for a long time and couldn't put a voice to are all here. Thank you Jamie Bower,
Counterfeit, Jamie, I lost my father about a year ago now and I've been listening to this song since then and it's really helped me get through some difficult times. I want to thank you, and let you know that your music is amazing and it does save lives.
Jamie’s voice has changed over the years. But now and then its always so strong and touching and chaotic 🔥
I stumbled across this song and this band very randomly and recently, a couple of days after my dad died. We hadn’t spoke in about 10 years. It felt like the strangest coincidence ever because I related to every word. I listened to it on repeat and balled my eyes out. Even though they aren’t working together anymore I will forever be a fan of all these guys ❤
This song is a whole therapy
Absolutely amazing! Made me slightly emotional. Love it! Congratulations boys, amazing job x
I like so much how you feel the music. You're amazing Jamie. Don't let anyone get you down because your big talent is beneath than more than a half singers in this world just for the thing that you spread your sadness or happiness beside your songs. PLEASE GO ON COUNTERFEIT!
Can't stop listening to this! And I'm feeling a little "upset" right now. OMG! The words, Jamie's rough yet sweet voice, the music... That's deep, guys! I just love it so much!
I miss you so much krystal it's been 11 years this may and not a week goes by where I don't think about you. I get angry and lost and confused these days and I just want to call you on the phone. I remember when I laid in bed with and I watched you get ready for work in my bsthroom. And the times we drove around town in your jeep. Listening to music. I dedicate this to you and I hope at your home in heaven you can hear this song. Also thank you so much Jamie for writing this song .... it helps me cope with losing my best friend to.
I AM MEETING THIS BEAUTIFUL AND TALENTED PERSON THIS MONTH WHAT EVEN
Omg I love this so much!!! His voice and the guitar and the lyrics and just everything!!
This sings gives me goosebumps and makes me cry every time I listen to it. This song is a whole 5-sense experience
Wow. I'm processing how much I loved this song, Jamie's voice, the guitar and the vintage video. COME TO ARGENTINA PLEASE!! I love u♥ Congratulations for all of u!!
I was feeling really stressed and depressed, and now relistening to this song, I've decided that I don't want this to have to be how the people that have shown continuous love and care for me and that I love feel about me. I want to live for them, and while this moment wouldn't have necessarily been when my life could have ended, I feel like it's a time when I can let those people in and let them help.
OMG JAMIE I LOVE IT.
I love it I love it I completely love it. Your voice is so intense.
Did I say that I love it?
Congratulation guys.
Jamie has a mysterious voice. Different , mysterious , dark and like a.... complaint.
The “you’re not alone” had me crying
i love them so much
and yup, jamie is my biggest crush again
The song is great.

this song ended up being dedicated to the lead from linkin park at the Woodstock festival.. puts a whole new perspective to the song in my eyes at least
it has been 14 years but i still have these thoughts he sings about.
Omg I love this so much!!! His voice and the guitar and the lyrics and just everything 😍

That stuff is awesome! To be honest I didn't expected it to be so good, but the song wasn't even halfway through, when I knew that I'm definitely going to one of the concerts!
