    I Prevail - Every Time You Leave ft. Delaney Jane
    LYRICS:
    All I ever wanted was to find someone
    But holdin' it together is the hardest part
    No one said life gets in the way
    That our plans may change but our hearts remain
    You stand in the doorway holdin’ me
    Feeling the tension, you beg and plead
    Not to go away again
    And then she said
    Every time you leave, I lose a little piece of me
    And every time we speak, words don't do it justice
    It's just us from here
    Here, here
    And that’s when she said
    Every time you leave, I lose a little piece of me
    All I ever wanted was to find someone
    But finishing the puzzle is the hardest part
    Everyday wishin' you could stay
    'Cause our minds may change but our hearts remain
    You stand in the doorway holding me
    Lost in the moment, I can't believe
    You gotta go away again
    And when I say
    Every time you leave, I lose a little piece of me
    And every time we speak, words don't do it justice
    It's just us from here
    Here, here
    And that's when she said
    Every time you leave, I lose a little piece of me
    'Cause if you ever start to hesitate
    And you feel the weight, it starts to break
    We’re the not the same
    Know that this means everything to me
    Oh to me, oh to me, oh to me, oh to me
    Every time you leave, I lose a little piece of me
    And every time we speak, words don’t do it justice
    Every time you leave, I lose a little piece of me
    And every time we speak, words don't do it justice
    It’s just us from here
    Here, here
    And that's when she said
    Every time you leave, I lose a little piece of me
    All I ever wanted was to find someone
    But finishing the puzzle is the hardest part
    (I lose a little piece of me)
    No one said life gets in the way
    It's just us from here
    Here (I lose a little piece of me)
    Here, I lose a little piece of me

    Man this paints a picture of what goes on over there and how fragile human life can be. The man who’s over in the Middle East looks like he was forced into a war he wanted nothing to do with. He gets killed trying to escape back to his family but the American soldier gets to go home to her husband. That is a powerful message that speaks volumes. You guys nailed it.

    • @NateSceneTV

      I agree but it also shows there's bad people over there too. Personally I'm pro-military but I'd just like to see it get used in a way that helped the oppressed in other countries instead of what happens a lot, where they just make things worse. There's heroes and villains on both sides

    • @sethbowling
      @sethbowling Před 3 lety +8

      Yes. It's a very powerful message, but if the guy didn't try to escape, he wouldn't have gotten killed. Of course, it begs a question like, "What would they have done with POWs like him if he stayed?" or "Would they have killed him anyway even if he didn't try to escape?" If the script was flipped, and the Iraqi guy got to go home to his family and the American woman was captured, she would have most likely been killed with absolutely no mercy because they don't have a set humane guidelines for POWs like the U.S. does. That's not to say all Iraqi POWs are treated humanely and American POWs are always killed. I'm just saying, in general, he would've had a better chance at getting back to his family if he didn't try to escape.

    I spent 10 months in Afghanistan doing Detainee Ops. I saw multiple scenarios like this. Many of the prisoners under my control did not choose to be involved. They were forced by threats to their families and friends. Many of them were innocent and just got scooped up because they're were with the wrong people and the wrong time. Buy I believe we did a good job filtering them out to their local justice system, and most of them were released back to their lives. It's a sad situation over there. This video pretty much sums up my life for that year.

    Easily the hardest part of the military right here (Army for me), saying goodbye to my family. I'm stationed on one coast and they live on the opposite. Roughly 3,000 miles apart. I got to visit with them for a small bit of time and we just had to say our goodbyes again. My mom's tears. My sister throwing on her tough girl face to try and be strong. And my niece, confused why I can't stay with her, wishing that I wouldn't leave her again. NEVER gets any easier. You can become numb to many things but not everything. Shit really rips apart your soul. Apologies for the little rant, but venting helps. Many blessings to everyone who took the time to read this, and an extra blessing to everyone that's lived this (or something similar)

    Having served in three tours to Iraq this video hit me deep. Although I did come home in one piece physically, I came home in a dozen pieces mentally. To all of those men and women who live with the fear of uncertainty regarding their spouses returning home, that fear, for a lot of soldiers on the front line, is magnified ten fold. It's crippling mentally for some, a little less for others, even experiencing the same events side by side. Hold each other close and embrace your soldier when they return, they will most certainly need it

      If you live in a world that forces you to make hideous choices to survive, doing those things it not your fault. It's the fault of a world that put you in that position in the first place. I used to be a junkie right? I started doing this shit to deal with childhood abuse and trauma and shit I couldn't handle that left me fucked up. and I had this woman I was friends with get into drugs with me and her son. I would literally shoot her up cuz I was better at finding a vein. She almost died on me a few times. I got clean, but she didn't, and she died. I carried that guilt for a long time, like if i'd never started doing it and brought her into that world, if i hadn't gotten clean and cut her out, i could've saved her like i did the other time she OD'd on me, I could've, I should've... on and on.
      But it wasn't my fault. Wasn't my fault i couldn't handle my trauma, wasn't my fault she couldn't handle hers, wasn't my fault she'd go too hard, wasn't my fault i had to save myself and get clean. It wasn't my fault. the world was a fucked up place that i couldn't handle and some bad shit happened.
      And it's not your fault that people you've never met sent you to a war you never decided to have, to fight against people who never decided to fight you either.
      It is NOT your fault that you were put in a position that resulted in death. You didn't set any of those wheels in motion. The world did. Don't blame yourself, blame a world that so fucked up that these are the choices we have to make just to live in it.

I really wish we could live a peaceful world where no one has to fight and no one has to sacrifice or risk their lives. Salute to all the soldiers out there!!!! We're all proud of you.

    I absolutely love how they depicted that the female went to fight for the US and the man stayed home. A lot of people would've made it so that the man went off to war. A lot of women fight for the US and aren't represented enough. I also love how they showed that not everyone who is fighting is doing so willingly - especially from other countries. And the fact of the matter is, they showed the truth; some people get to go home to their families while others do not. That's the sad truth of war. And it's the sad truth of reality.

I was only a newborn when he left, but was lucky to have him come back when I was 6 months old, and he’s been with me ever since. To all those still serving and retired, I salute you. And to those who’s fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, and whoever else died in combat, I salute you too because you are a soldier as well. Grief is one of the worst things any person can go through, and I salute you for getting up every single day and facing it without your loved ones, you are a warrior and your family is I’m sure watching from the clouds above and so proud ❤️

    I've worked offshore since graduating high school 12 years ago. It's absolutely destroyed every relationship I've been in since. I know being away from work for a week every month is a far cry from what some people have to deal with, but it's still so hard. In fact, knowing that people do deal with worse makes it even harder, because at least some of them manage to have a successful relationship. Every day that goes by makes me feel more and more like I'm running out of time, and I can only really blame myself, since I'm the reason I'm still doing what I'm doing instead of pursuing any chances of a different life.
