This song brought me to tears. I remember coming home from Afghanistan on my last final deployment before leaving the Corp. I became a heavy heavy drinker. Drank to rid of my demons and bad memories in my 10 years in the service. I was hurting people around me. I cussed at everyone for trying to help me. The final straw is when I tried to commit suicide by hanging with a suicide note pinned to my shirt. My GF came home just in time to cut the rope down(I was already hanging there). I'm now 3 years sober and regularly attend VA group meetings.
i love you brother. im glad you made it through. 8 years in the Corps. i understand better than most! glad youre here and doing great. im proud of you!
Stay strong brother. Thank you for you're service. God bless.
Thanks for your service brother, you're a stronger man then I will ever be.
@@BananaBloods thank you brother. But please my guy, don't put yourself down like that. I'm almost positive there is things you do that I won't. Don't be so harsh on yourself
I tried with my GI 45. It jammed and i realized then it wasnt meant to be. Ive been clean and sober since 01 03 2020. God is awesome
A family with a long line of service stretching back to the Revolutionary War, and as the last of my family name and a veteran myself I would say we all deserve our portion of respect. But it's the combat vet that takes the hardest hit, to include their families. Scars that never heal, memories that never fade, and a heart that never shrinks. Heard this song may times and it always struck a chord with me, but I never felt the connection till I saw this video. To all my brothers and sisters out there. Salute!
All respect to you and your family for your perseverance and bravest of hearts. Us true Americans will never forget you and do our best to fight against it all going down in vain. We are up against our biggest enemy at this moment in time. Respect
Salute
Grateful every day for the service and sacrifices of our nation’s veterans. Hopeful that this will start to shed a light on every aspect of their lives. Love this song and everything it means. Hope y'all do too
@@joncredendino3474 thanks man. just added it to the video captioning 🙏
@@morganwallen you're the man for that. see you in chucktown on feb 20th 🤟🏼
So beautifully done. This song has held a special place in my heart since you've released it and seeing it live yesterday and now watching this video has given me a whole new perspective of it. Thank you veterans!
Morgan Wallen this short film fits in so well with the song and it is so sad 😭 😭
It was a good video
My 23 yr old son died in the army and this hits hard for a momma. Thanks Morgan. He struggled being away from home but a damn good soldier. I love you Brandon Lee Campbell. R.I.P. july9th 1997-November 7,2020. At least your back in Tennessee!!!!!! He missed his sister's and dog so so much. You are loved. I saw this in your funeral.
I would recommend dress blues great song about a similar subject. Gets me in the feels ever time.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Keep his name going!!! We love you! Stay strong
@Morgan Wallen STFU, you fake. Get off of here. No one wants a loser like you in any thread. That's not a request. You will disappear.
Whether I'm a Marine and he matters not in this moment ma'am. What matters is, we are all family. He is mourned by every Veteran along side you. When you close your eyes, picture us next to you and take strength from that ma'am.
I lost my son..my only child..16 weeks ago to PTSD...I miss you everyday son...i love you...Dad...Semper Fi son....Semper Fi..
I am so, so sorry. I cannot imagine your pain. I send healing, love and hugs to you. My heart sank and I felt for you. No words are of any comfort but please know that I am thinking of you and your family.💕💕💕 May your boy rest in peace. 🕊️
I’m so sorry to see this. I couldn’t imagine losing one of my brothers in the AF or military alone. I salute your son, may he Rest In Peace.
I"m so sorry for your loss
God rest his soul.
Semper Fi sir. Heaven is lucky to have him guarding the gates.
Here’s the quote from the beginning of the video: “It’s not the person refusing to let go of the past but the past refusing to let go of the person.” 😢
Thank you.
Thank you.. this video was heart wrenching I have now listened and watched it 4 times and get tears rolling out of my eyes!
😞
i have never heard a truer statement when describing ptsd .
That is such a true statement in so many cases in life’s journey
Man, this video is very powerful. 12 years I've been home from Afghanistan, and I still struggle, sometimes in ways I'm not even aware. My wife has loved (not tolerated) me through the deepest and darkest moments of these last 12 years. It took me nearly 9 of those years to even acknowledge that something was different (not wrong). PTSD does not mean we are broken, although to us and others it seems that way. It's a natural neurological response to shit we've seen and done. I like how this video focuses just as much on her love and patience with him as much as it did him. Unfortunately, this is a G-rated version of how it looks sometimes. Thank you to everyone who are patient and understanding to your loved ones because I know from outward appearance it does not seem they are worthy sometimes. I feel not worthy almost daily. 🇺🇸
You are worthy. Thank you for your service. I’m sorry for its cost.
HAY BE A US A DID SABEBE LOVE YOU MISS YOU 24 YEA I DOG SISRE A DO PUE ARO RIGT A DID
Socom..... You are sooooo worthy
Thank you for your service.
I love you. Thank you.
I lost my brother. My best friend to depression and PTSD😢. I wish so much he was still here
God Bless him. He is so missed. 23 years fighting for our country.
This song and video hit me square in the heart!!! After being hit with a hand grenade in 2003 and then being over prescribed antipsychotics instead of someone just listening to me talk I turned to drugs and vodka. 3 years ago I met the love of my life who has given me a son and a daughter since then. It hasn't been easy by no means but I've been clear headed and clean for 6 months. This will be our first dance song at our wedding 100%!!!! Thank you for bringing light into the darkness!!!
Keep fighting the good fight. I did a 15 month deployment came back to a divorce and a dead dog. Life tests the strong ones.
Hats off to u soldier
keep going boys never out of the fight
Thank you for your service. Keep up the good work! Wishing you and your family well ❤️
Jacob hester and Anthony Hobbs, thank you for your service
I’m reading the comments and most seem to be a veteran telling their story. I give a different perspective. I’ve been a Marine/ veteran wife for 21 years. Been through moving every couple years, to deployments, war and everything in between. The hardest thing to do is trying to love someone through their pain. I always tried to make him talk to me, but no matter how he tried, I could never understand what he had seen and been through. He never drank when he would come home, sometimes I wished he would have, maybe it would have calmed him down. I would try to get him to go to the VA, but he would say he didn’t need to. After a few, for lack of better term, breakdowns, and the last one almost causing me to reach my breaking point, I talked him into going in to talk to someone. I’ve been lucky, he is/was the strongest person I know. He fights his demons every day, and according to him, it’s not easy but it’s worth it. He knows I will always try to love him enough to drown out the bad, but on the days I can’t, I will always throw him a life vest to bring him back up. Semper Fi!
Thank You for your Service and may GOD Bless You...
Thank you for yours, your families and your husband's service.
This country is the greatest because of families like yours. Thank you. God bless you and yours!
Thank you all for your kind words. I appreciate it ❤️
Beautiful ❤❤❤ The real definition of a woman you are amazing ❤❤❤
It really is true. It is not the same here. I appreciate the song and what it has done for Vets. Cant even listen to it without crying. It is hard for us to talk to people sometimes. You feel separated, numb and just put a face on so everything seems normal. I have lost friends in combat and friends due to suicide. I wish the entire country would stop asking what is wrong and instead just offer a hug, a warm embrace, a kind gesture. Too many of us are left out to hang and I dont speak for all Vets. But at the end of the day I would rather have a conversation, maybe a shoulder to cry on. Instead of just constantly being looked at sideways. Thank you Morgan for bringing this song and continue the path. Semper Fi
Amen to that Leatherneck. I will always offer a hug and two listening ears and a mouth of wisdom and understanding and compassion rather than look at a fellow Marine side ways. Love you Brother continue to grow strong. Continue to work on yourself and never carry the burden of guilt on yourself. Its a heavy weight you made it our Brothers didnt. Let God sort the rest out. 🙏
I served 20 years in the US Army. Been through 5 combat deployments, seen my brothers die, injured and I have been in some deep shit. I made it home and I carry a guilt everyday that I made it home and not them. I struggle every day but I have a beautiful family that I am thankful for. They help me each day to love the life I have. This song hits deep but speaks the truth. Yes we may seem abrasive, even called dicks and assholes, no one understands it but us. I love my country and will do anything for her. God bless all who have served and all who continue to serve. Remember everyday on this earth is a good day.
Thank you for protecting our country.
Thank you for your service and thank you for sharing. As a veteran myself i know its hard to express things at times
Amen to this!!!! God Bless TYFYS SIR....Army 1990-1994
Are you in Arkansas.... If so come on home
.
I pray your doing well, praying your a christian and know Jesus. As he can help you fight your demons.Thank you for serving. You will find purpose. And remember we will see our loved ones and our brothers In Arms again. And all the rest of our loved ones, on judgment day. Cry no more, rejoice for they are home with their creator!
Hearing your version of this song, I fell in love with it right away. It’s a song I listen to every morning while getting ready.
Seeing this short film, I’m breathless. It’s a wrenching truthful story. My husband served in the Marine Corps for 8 years. After his first tour to Afghanistan he was never the same. This short film fits us to a T.
As hard as it can be for people to watch, thank you for bringing it to light.
Beautiful, beautiful work. ♥️🇺🇸
Thank you for your sacrifice as a military wife.. Your husband is appreciated.. Thank you for your service..❤ 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤
Tine Richardson Thank you very much. ♥️🇺🇸
Thank you so much for all you and your husband sacrifice for the country!! God bless you! Have a great Thanksgiving, I hope your husband will be home to enjoy it with you and both your families!
Kristin Sinkiewich Thank you very much, that’s very sweet!! He is home this year. We are very thankful for that. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving! ♥️
Thank you and your husband for your sacrifice. Thank him for his service as well! God that song made me realize how hard it really is. God bless you both!
Unfortunately, not all our scars are visible. This song hits different than anything I've heard in a while. God bless!
You are so right my friend.
try fire away by Chris Stapleton
stay strong.you are loved
I love I drive your truck
Nope, not all scars are visible. This song is beautiful.
I’m a proud veteran and love when we are recognized for our sacrifices. Thank you Morgan.
Thank sir for your service 🫡🇺🇸
This song is from Jason isbell wrote to his wife about him getting sober! This song is not about vet's.
@@giovannabrazel7152 Morgan Wallen's Version is... it doesn't matter. The lyrics have a positive message and that's what matters.
It does matter because the lyrics are sang and wrote by Jason isbell to his wife!
@giovannabrazel7152 LOL. I'm not sure if your trying to be on some hate rampage but not this one. Yes the lyrics might be the same but it's sang by Morgan Wallen. And he is portraying it to be about vets who deal with mental and ptsd issues. Doesn't matter the lyrics people can choose what those lyrics mean to them and for Morgan Wallen this is what those lyrics mean to him. Just enjoy that people like this song and stop being so negative...
The words "thank you" will never adequately express the magnitude of gratefulness all veterans, military persons, and their families deserve for their sacrifices. This video brought me to tears, and I can only pray those who have fought, and/or are currently fighting for the freedom of our nation, will know they are appreciated, from the smallest of towns to the biggest of cities. God bless you, each and every one. "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends" John 15:13 (KJV)
Thank you for such a beautiful verse
When John spoke about friends, he did not mean Ukrainians or Israelites thousands of miles away
I'm a retired disabled marine gulf war and Somalia vet I deal with PTSD everyday its bad enough that my wife left me and I've been alone feeling like no one could love someone like me. I just found this video and song and sit and cried I would gladly do it all over again for everyone in this country I appreciate the thank you but on behalf of all combat vets it was our pleasure it was what we do.
Amen brother! I'd do it again in a heartbeat
GOD bless you Scotty
God Bless you Sir. Thank you for your service. There are those of us civilians who think about this very often. Thank you again.
THANK YOU FOR SERVING OUR COUNTRY!!! Not as many willing these days…your sacrifice is recognized & valued!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
This song & the meaning behind it completely rocks my world- lost my boyfriend 2 months ago today to suicide. He was in the army and so passionate about serving for our country. If you need a sign to stay, this is it. You are so loved.
I know this is delayed, but I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my partner to suicide almost 3 years ago. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. Take care of yourself.
Bless you Aurora thank you for sharing this. My heart was rock hearing your story. We love you.
SO LOVED
check out mark hemans and robert clancy on youtube and so very sorry for your loss may the Lord heal your heart
I’m so sorry. I lost my husband on the 2:27 of this year to suicide. Some days I don’t think I’ll make it. I’m trying for our girls
I haven't seen my son in five months..I miss him so much..he was a
Almost 1 year clean the last time I saw him.. Please Lord keep my baby safe and clean 😢😢😢
How this song can change.
Listened to this years ago and loved the brilliance of the heart behind Wallen's voice. If he only recorded this single cover, he'd have done something so great that it's worthy of saying he did something amazing in his life. An artist who created a masterpiece. I still feel the same way.
Since then, I've become a founder of a non-profit. Not sure it will ever be successful, but the loss of my friend left me with a choice to try and help others not be taken over by the dark of depression, or to do what most do and give a bit here and a bit there, and hope that I can make a difference that way. Watching such an amazing soul be ruined by PTSD, depression and likely a list of other things... is heartbreaking. He took his own life last year (2023) and ...
Watching this video now, floored me. First time I've watched it since my close friend left. I'm one of the lucky that didn't get exposed to the trauma that others did. I did back to back tours, but far from danger. I have nothing but respect and remorse for those who have been through much, much worse. I have my own traumatic events, my own depression to deal with, but I feel I'm among the lucky that can offer what I have to those who need it. If I was allowed one favor to those who read this far? It would be that you do the same. When the times come to keep walking, or turn back and lend a hand... if it could one day make a difference to just that one person, give what you can.
Respect & love to all those serving and leaving their families to protect us and our country 🇺🇸
Amen to that
AMEN I LOST ALOT TO THY MILITARY😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🙏 FOR BEING YOU
@Much Derp you're ignorant. Simple as that.
Much Derp nobody can explain why you are wrong , but aye I'm a little Mexican boy listening to this because I love it , & I have a cousin serving in Afghanistan so chill the hell out bub
Much Derp shame on you
I am a counselor specializing in PTSD. This is what my soldiers have gone through. Thank you for showing their story so perfectly.
Thanks for choosing this as a career 🤍 much love and light to you
Many of us who made it home never truly left and left a piece of our souls in that sand, stay strong gents if you're reading this you're not alone.
I was never in the military but this song brings me to tears every time i listen to it. So many people take for granted the blessings we get to live everyday.
God... I can't imagine how hard it would be to fight a war and the scars that leaves you inside out. My prayers and thoughts are with you all.
Imagine hand to hand combat in WWI and WWII. Imagine crawling over piles of bodies knowing that you will likely end up on top of one yourself. They then came home and built this nation. They are the greatest generation and its not even a close race.
@@AU9377 People like me have CPTSD - Im not a war veteran - just a life surviving on the edge
RESPECT TO ALL VETERANS AND SERVICE MEN & WOMEN worldwide serving selflessly. Thank you
Jesus this was was intense, I almost forgot it was a music video
So much love and respect for our vets. This one hurt a little to watch, I'm so glad it ended well. God bless those who are here to care for our vets after the fact.
After my child died I couldn't handle a lot of noise.... This covers PTSD perfectly. Esp.. when you watch them pass . God bless every single soul who has had their hell on earth. May Heaven welcome you with wide open gates by the one's you miss the most.
This is why there’s nothing like country music
I'd give 5FDP a nod for their work though.
LONELY
Absolutely. Havent a heard a good country song like this in awhile.
@@rupeethemexican This song came out years ago
@@rowbseatthirteen lol I realized this earlier but have never heard it till the other day!
Who wants to see a full movie now.
Me
Thank you for your service is a movie similar
Glad our PTSD and what we went through could entertain you
@@sydneywooton4228 relax, it brings awarness nothing at all wrong with it
@@sydneywooton4228 relax fobbet the long lines at the Px was traumatizing but you’re home now and can get all the rip-it’s you want.
I love this song! My husband is a Marine Corps Infantry Veteran...hasn’t been the same since he returned home from his second deployment...accurate representation of what families go through on the daily ❤️💛🇺🇸
Educate yourself about this song. Jason isbell wrote it for his wife when he was getting sober. Watch the original song Jason isbell
"are you going back?" yes. "why?" IT's NOT THE SAME HERE NOW
God Bless ya... And thank your hubby for being our hero... God bless the both of you...
Thank him extra hard today for his service, I know we sure do

“The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war.” -Douglas MacArthur
This is really beautiful and true
Those who have seen war, never truly stop seeing it. Only the dead have seen the end of war.
My husband served in Army for 13 yrs two tours. Came home a new man. The first 5 yrs were probably the hardest. Nightmares waking us both up, he avoided large crowds, he would snap so fast and over things that he would have normally brushed off. This song truly shows what our men and women deal with everyday. The effects it has on the ones who love them so much. Thank you thank you so much for showing this. ❤
As a wife of an Army vet with PTSD this hits so close to home.
God, please bless ALL of us that fight against demons.😢☹️😞💔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
What an incredible video. Brought me to tears because I have been there. My name is Sgt Donnell USMC 2x Combat vet Iraq and Afghan..... If any Vets seeing this need to talk my inbox is always open.
"I sobered up I swore off that stuff forever this time" .... there is a lot of combat vets that can relate to this. People say thank you for your service,but they doent really know what they are thanking us for. That damn combat ptsd is a killer people don't understand. I'm not ok
Mike Donnell thank you for your service sir and may God Bless you in every way.
@@daniellejeanette8099 Thank you.
Thank you and all the soldiers past present and future. God becwith you and Bless You
Thank you for your Service Sgt.
My husbands brother committed suicide 2 years ago. My husband found him. I’ve been trying to understand it since. My husband hasn’t been the same since that day and we’ve been struggling to make life “normal” again. I can’t imagine what these people are going through. I love and respect our military very much. I just wish he’d talked to someone. We never knew there was anything wrong. Ps.. his son was born 2 weeks after his death. A little boy that will never know his amazing father.
I'm so sorry for your loss
Don’t try to understand. You can’t.
PTSD sucks balls. Mine is from a Cold War incident. I'm finally getting therapy. Almost 35 years w/o help. God knows how often I had my pistol aimed at myself. I have a good family, for almost 15 years now, even grandchildren.
Buddy of mine has it from many deployments. He's here, in our home and we help each other.
Though this video may trigger some, I'm glad you put it out. Thank you for putting the Crisis Line number up, too.
This is literally the most beautiful song I've ever heard. I get chills every time. 😭
Edited to add: it's 100% Morgan Wallens voice. He was meant to sing this song. 💚
@Morgan Wallen you're not even Morgan Wallen. 😭
@Morgan Wallen YOU ARE NOT MORGAN WALLEN. 😂
To every soldier coming home with PTSD, I hope u find peace n learn to love again. I pray GOD help u guys. I SALUTE YOU GUYS
I first heard this song and got sad about some girl who left me and broke my heart but soldiers coming home have some much more to be concerned about. I’ve never felt so selfish. Thank you for your service guys and girls.
Yeah, But this song has nothing to do with soldiers or PTSD or any of that stuff. It’s a song about addiction and getting better, despite all of the bad you’ve done, and knowing that there is someone out there that loves you for you, So don’t feel as if what you felt is invalid or selfish. This is just a video to a song someone covered.
I didn’t serve. I have PTSD. My childhood was awful. My mother left my dad when I was a baby. I grew up with a stepfather who was an animal. My “parents” subjected me to things no child should ever experience. No disrespect to those who have served, not at all. Just sharing my experience. I was made to count to 100 while I was “spanked” with a wooden paddle with the word STUPID spelled on it in drill holes. My back side looked and felt like cooked bacon. I spent my days at school bracing my legs because it hurt too much to sit down right. Anyway… I get this song on a personal level. I’m almost 50 now. It does not go away.
So sorry 🙏
Im so sorry
This breaks my heart. Please look to Jesus for healing and comfort
❤
PTSD is so real.Thank you for the men and women who defend our country and the families that stand behind them.🇺🇸❤️🙏🏼
Post deployments, post treatment, and haven't drank in 2.5 years...My wife and I can watch this video and joke about our Journey now. This song says a lot in 7-minutes.
Thank you all for serving. My dad suffered from Vietnam combat PTSD and was an alcoholic. He finally got sober 8 years ago. The VA therapy groups have helped him tremendously.
I’ve heard this song a million times and it’s always made me cry but never seen this video until now. Now I’m balling my eyes out not just from the song and video. But from all of the comments posted! I am so sorry for everyone’s loss but I’m beyond grateful for every single one of the loved ones you lost and the sacrifices they made! May God bless you until you’re reunited with them!
It did the same for me bro
My fella plays this song all the time and I've only just seen this video 😭
Thank you to all our veterans! Their courage & commitment. Forever!❤️🇺🇸
As someone who suffers from PTSD this video is very accurate. I’m thankful for the family members/spouses, therapists and psychiatrists out there who are making a difference.
check our mark hemans and robert clancy on youtube will you will be blessed by them
ive been playing this song over and over and over and even when its not playing its on repeat in my head ill be honest just hearing it immediatly brings me to tears or atleast damn close, guess its what i need most in this point in my life, lost my way and at times feel as though im losing myself, my wife and kids i know they can see it, ive been slowly secluding myself and withdrawing from family events, we live in the sticks down here in this beautiful bluegrass state of ky, the only peace ive been able to find lately has been the view off my poarch 19miles straight to the ky hillside, in my shop tinkering or working on something, or the third and the thing that is giving me the most peace,,,, music......i cant really explain it but man when youve been hit soo hard by life that you feel your "soul" was injured thats where im at and music is life for me right now....listening, playing and now writing.....if I could ask your permission I wanted to do a cover of this song, im trying to step out of my comfort zone again and try and break this cycle .....ive got to get back to the husband, father and friend that I was, 29 years old and at times i feel like a stranger in my own skin.. ps sorry for the grammer errors just exhausted and wanted to get this typed and get back the playlist
I hope you're doing better man. Hang in there.
Stay strong brother, family's the best for that and if you need more there always the VA. The group meetings help a lot. At first I wasn't sure about it, but it was cool opening up and all
For those of us who have been both the hunters and the hunted…we will never be the same…and for those of you who have never experienced either, we will be forever grateful for your shelter from that darkness.
Thank you for sharing. That was a really short but effactive way to put that. I hope you don't mind I copied that. Nancy J. USMC
A lot of people don’t realize that ptsd is part of how something breaks you down and causes trauma in many shapes and sizes. The army specializes in this so they can shape you into what is more useful for them, to then throw you away like an old toy once they did what they needed to with you. This can happen at home as well with things that want to scar you for life. The thing that helps more than anything is seeking a mindset that nothing in the past matters & you want ultimate happiness in your life looking forward. Working with yourself with the help of God to strengthen your mind, and realizing that you can only make your best years ahead of you if you want to.
It's 3 am and I am going through a divorce because this is my life story. I am drinking, crying, and asking God why because I don't want to lose anything ever again.
Are you ok?
I'm sorry I hope things get better for you
I hope you’re okay Dusty.
I'm ok thank you all for asking! Proof that kindness and love for others is there. My struggles are mine but I am working through them
@@rockingmcranch I'm glad to hear you're working through your struggles. Sending you so much love!
This is my life! I came back from fighting war, and started fighting everyone that loved me... it must be a hard thing to damage everyone that loves you! I used to love and live happy and now I just stay stoned and ruin relationships, bc guess what? That's how I push myself away! And keep up my fighting! It's hard being a warrior in a society that wants the wars but no longer needs the used up warrior.
Mike Jones thank you for your service 🙏🏻
God Bless you! Thank you for your service and sacrifice! 🇺🇸
Mike Jones praying for you 🙏 and huge THANK YOU for protecting me and my family and GOD BLESS AMERICA 🙏🇺🇸❤
Life by itself is hard, having to live it and going to war is the hardest...Brother you’re not alone pray to Jesus and he will help you through the really tough times. But most of all Brother don’t give up...Bless you and Thank you for your service.
Thanks for the kind words and prayers yall! Lord knows I need them.
I am a nobody. One minor tour in Iraq. 16 when the towers fell. I flew across Iraq trying to find myself and found nothing but a hollow shell. I am so sorry for those who truly lost and served.
Anyone else see it as a addiction stand point as well? My husband has fought addiction for many years, he played this one night while asking to get help to get sober. It brings me to tears. But also to the soldiers who fight ptsd & addiction issues as well. ❤️
Thanks for your love and support
110% I feel this statement as well. ❤️
It was written by Jason Isbell as an ode to his beautiful
And talented wife, Amanda Shires. Jason was an addict and spiraling. She loved him but was not going to be with him in that shape. He loved her and when she had an intervention, he got clean and has been since. It’s not easy but this woman stood by and for her man. When he sings “but I sobered up, I swore off that stuff, forever this time” his fans cheer every time. It’s on the album Southeastern and is the best album you will hear in a long time.
I just cried for the first time in over two years... I am a “tough guy” but I have a soft spot for veterans and military personnel. Thank you all for your service and just know that there are some of us that appreciate everything you do for us and our country. All the shit you go through has a purpose and we truly are great full that you take the sacrifice so we don’t have to.
@@jonathanwilson7766 Aye, fuck you man. you might be a vet, but from one vet to another you're no one to tell another what someone should feel. this song is great and does a great job portraying what it's supposed to.
@@dwolford60 wth man he never told anyone how to feel.
Canadian Veteran fighting my own Demons, I just found this song/video and it says everything I’ve never been able to put to words to my loved ones. Even watching a friend go back when I couldn’t bring myself to be with them and living with them not coming home. This is my life. .
Thank you so much for this.
Travis, I am not a soldier, but a Canadian who struggles a lot with mental health issues. I am from Toronto area. Let me know if I can be of any help. Thanks for the service 🙏
I hope you reach out ..everyone cares about you !
a veteran is a veteran, hang in there
This makes me cry every time I listen to it. I love our men and women who serve. My heart absolutely breaks for what they’ve had to see, do and endure for me and my freedom. I could never thank you enough. We have no idea what y’all have went through you deserve so much more than you get. God bless y’all.
So well said, thank you
There are tens of millions of Americans and me, a single Canadian here who are forever grateful for all you’ve done. VETERANS…..IM TALKING TO YOU. Thank you
Wow. Now this made me cry for sure. I raise a glass for every service man past and present. Someone speaking out about the mental health issues that these people struggle with every day has to be the greatest story ever to be told. This is something I've battled with for years ( for different reasons), but still hold it close to my heart. Witnessing friends go through this is really hard. Your short film spoke a million words and I thank you for it. Country music has played a big part in my moving forward I wish more people could just be as fortunate. Amazing song as well. May are prears be heard and answered for everyone. 🇬🇧🇺🇲
Lost my younger cousin to suicide after coming home from overseas. The pain some of these kids go through is unbearable. Much love and respect to everyone coming home. Thank a vet !!!!!
God is always with you. Thank you for your service. My husband served 20 years in the Army. This is so relatable. Husband gave his life to Christ and hasn’t drank a day since. Just celebrated his 3 year sober day. Hang in there. God bless you.
Whoever produced this knows the pain and the way it hits you in the moment. Thank you.
Combat didn't get me though I was in combat. What damaged me is 28 years of being a paramedic. All the scenes, the stress, the death, the stories, the 72-96 hour work weeks. Every day is a battle to just survive. I lost the one who used to "Cover Me Up" to early onset Dementia, which has absolutely devastated me. I don't know what to do or how to cope, but somehow I get up and go back. I used to think that life had a meaning but now I I think life is shit! I can see my old self, the guy who enjoyed life and all it had to offer, but I can't bring him to the present. I just want her to "Cover Me Up"!
It gets better man, I’m so sorry for all you’ve gone through but people and God are here for you. I’ve dealt with a lot too and hearing you be courageous enough to tell your story means a lot. Thank you, and Jesus loves you
Thank man
Security at a Trauma center and current corrections officer. Sir I understand completely. Pulling people out of cars that had been shot up and killed, Overdoses, combative patients, carrying infants to the morgue. Did a lot of damage. I can only imagine seeing the scene. Love you brother
@@CO-sk9ou Thanks brother...love back at you
❤ I hope that you find her. Soon. Sorry sweetheart. Don't know what else to say except thank you for the sacrifices that you made for someone like me and my babies and grandson that I couldn't. I am forever grateful to a brave man such as you. ❤
My favorite song! I'm married to a disabled Vietnam veteran recovering alcoholic who relapsed and has now succumbed to even more addictions. I've never given up on him even when he gave up on himself - until now. I've rescued him repeatedly and gotten him to a hospital twice that they said he would have died had I not intervened. He demands I leave him to the life (or death) he chooses and the verbal abuse, financial ruin, and lack of anything remotely similar to being grateful to be alive other than obtaining the next fix compel me to realize that as much as I have tried, I will never be his hero and I must leave him in God's Hands. For all I've been through with him, I realize that I will never know the horrors that many of these brave souls have suffered. And though no words could ever express adequate appreciation, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I fit this to a T, luckily after 10yrs and 2 busted marriages I met the woman who loves me more than anything, 43 yrs now, and this song tells the story of me, and I know alot of other vets. Thank god for strong caring women!
@Linda McC I too loved a man that suffers from PTSD and no matter what all I tried or done had to face the horrible reality this past January that I would never be able to hold him together or be all that I wanted to be for him. He is the love of my life and always will be without a doubt I'm sure, as we also do share the most amazing human being together born in October of 2009 our son Brayden, and I can only put his life in God's hands now and just hope and pray with all that's left in my soul that He won't let anything bad happen to him so he can still at least be the amazing father that he is to our son...this song has always brought me to tears and now seeing this video it only proves exactly how much none of this is to be taken lightly because the man I fell in love with for 12.5 years battles the same demons day in and day out to this day and he served in 2006 and lost one of his brothers in Iraq in 2009 also and he will never be the same...I begged and I pleaded with him multiple times and even more so last year at this time to please find the help he needs no matter the cost I was willing to do it with him and be by his side as I always had been I told him I would drop whatever I was doing right then and take him wherever he needed to go that our family and his love and his life meant that much to me that I would go to whatever lengths I had to just to save him and our family! He refused and I held on longer than I knew how to anymore until January of this year, hardest damn thing I have ever had to do was let him go but he had already let me go long before and I know I don't understand it all and never will but he still means the world to me and always will no matter what I just hope one of these days he will be happy that is all I want for him in this life and I just fear he never will truly be happy again in this life bc of what he went thru and is still battling to this day but I do know that I can never ever thank him enough for the sacrifice he made while serving this country and is still sacrificing every single day that he wakes up and realizes he is still living in the hell that is PTSD, not only that but he gave me so much more than too, the most amazing and sweetest child a woman could ever ask for and the opportunity to be his mom and is hands down the most beautiful and precious gift that man ever could have given me! I love you Brayden Leevi, Momma loves you son more than my own life 💙 and u r what makes living the most precious thing in the world to me and also falling in love with your dad the best thing I could have ever wished or prayed for too.
BKD I know you don't think I do bc of everything but I do love you more than u will ever know and always will thank you for your courage to stand up and fight for this country and our freedom bc u knew u couldn't just sit and talk about it and not be about it all those years ago 💖 You did what so many people wouldn't and couldn't do and for that you will truly always be honored and appreciated even after you are gone...you still are and always will hold a special place in my heart and will always always be mine and Brayden's HERO ❤🤍💙
@@carladillon9045 I am so sorry for all the pain you are going through. But you are strong and know you have to be for Bayden. I too thank your husband and all the others who have sacrificed so much for us to be able to live in a free country. And I know that you have sacrificed too. I wish more people understood why it is unacceptable to burn our flag or to disrespect it. Sadly, some will never understand the price paid by those men and women until the freedom they take for granted is gone.I pray for you and your son to go on and live fulfilling lives full of love and peace!
PTSD is a lifelong struggle one never really defeats... we just learn to deal with it.
❤ much respect to you!
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
I've never served but have been part of a military family my entire life. Grandfather was a medic at Normandy WW2 father served 25yrs in Air Force. I thank all those who have served and for the ones currently serving. I can't sit here and say I understand what you've gone through or are. I can say as a human being that you are so highly appreciated by me and mine. This is one of the best country songs, and film I've ever seen. Literally broke my heart. Again thank you to all.
I was moved to tears with this video. PTSD is real and my heart breaks for our selfless soldiers. Morgan Wallen, I was already a big fan but you, songwriter, and all involved... blasted this one way out of the park!
NiNi to #6 I lost my son in law to PTSD. He lost his battle in March. I miss him so much.
Jan Bouchard I’m sure he was incredible, praying for y’all ❤️
He didn’t write this song.
Lisa G she’s thanking him and everyone in involved
Jonathan Whitworth I never said I did but that is what the PERSON WHO WROTE THE SONG SAID what it was about, as for a song they can’t actually show how hard things get. I don’t know what ptsd looks like but I do know that it’s a real serious medical problem that does need attention brought to it!
Jason Isbell wrote this masterpiece, so make sure you give him a listen if you enjoyed it.
Jason Isbell is an incredibly gifted writer. His song "last of my kind" resonates deeply with me.
He was recently noticed as one of the most underrated artist no one will ever hear. I love vampires and elephant.
Isbell needs to get recognition for sure. He resonates with so many people with his songs. He has killer picking skills as well definitely a big fan of his!
He’s from around where I live and it always makes me happy to see when people that aren’t local are huge fans of his. So much talent inside that man!!!
Yes!
It’s hard every day to remember all that we have done. I love this song and if you can relate it is hard but good to watch this. If you don’t see you just don’t see it.
I want to give many precious thanks to all of our veterans and active duty military. My freedom is because of you all. Many hugs to those struggling.
I love you guys. This might be the most meaningful country video I've ever seen. I'm not a Veteran at all. But I am a human. And I care about others so much. I've cried my eyes out watching this so many times. Just because I can't relate to its' content, doesn't mean I can't appreciate and love those who can. You're the real heroes. Thanks so much for protecting our liberties. 💜
Im right there with you..its so meaningful and sad I cry to
These men and women who serve literally sign their life away to protect ours if they aren't bad motherfuckers REAL heroes willing to die I don't know what a hero is. Not just their physical life but everything changes lost relationships they give EVERYTHING for this country
Remember EVERYDAY is Veterans Day.
I love your humanity man. Thank you!
Look up Every Time You Leave by iPrevail, I cried the first time I watched that music video, too. It’s a very powerful video, like this one
czcams.com/video/5KDR0M-Edrg/video.html
Am I the only person who wants someone to look at them with so much understanding as she does him when she finds him drunk in the hammock.
The wife in this video is the backbone of America. One of the reasons I fell in love with this video is that it doesn't leave out the struggle, loyalty, gracious forgiveness and selflessness of the military spouse. I so agree.
I agree
At the end did he pass out or kill himself what happened?
To anyone who’s served, I thank you for your service.
My little brother was a special agent for the army CID. He took his own life this past April this video is so hard to watch knowing he went thru it all , and thought he was alone. I love you bro RIP SA /SSG badge 2551 Jeffery Alexander Thruman- Carnall
So sorry for your loss
Oh my I'm so sorry for your loss ,it's terrible 😢 my deepest sympathies
Being a veteran myself I understand how hard it is to tell someone you need help or to reach out for help. But trust me don’t let it stay inside truth me it’s not fun..
God bless you, and thank you a million times over.
A heart on the run, keeps a hand on the gun, can't trust anyone.
Everyday it's a battle. This is the PERFECT expression of both sides of the veteran and the spouse after they get out. 12 years my vet served. Iraq killed apart of him he will never get back. Everyday its hard. Every single day you do not know what to expect. If people had to walk in either shoes for just one day they would look at the entire world differently. Prayers for our veterans and their families. The war didn't end when they got out. They still fight it every single day.
I buried my best friend on 04.23.21. It was the hardest day of my life. My best friend was taken from me by a drunk driver. This was his favorite song. He and I played it frequently when we drank beer together around bonfires. I miss him so much. Listening to this song without him is hard, but I know if I didn't listen to it he'd be pissed at me. I love this song and I miss my brother. RIP ARJ. Love you brother. Until we meet again.
This is why we show the upmost respect to our veterans and those who are currently serving in the military. We absolutely have no idea what they go through. 🇺🇸
Heartbreaking! My husband served 3 tours in Iraq. And, the toll it takes on their bodies and their minds.. unbelievable. Unfortunately, our marriage didn't survive. I spent 13 years trying. I just couldn't do it anymore. I still feel like I abandoned him somehow. But, unless someone has lived with a person with severe PTSD, they could not even begin to understand how hard it is on everyone involved. I had two children to think about. And, their safety and happiness will always come first. As it should. My heart goes out to people who live with this struggle. It's not their fault.
I'm living this life with my husband. It's heartbreaking...
I know how you feel and I felt the same way leaving but I am happy now and I wouldn't trade that for anything.
Am I the only one Crying watching this video? It happens everytime. Thank you for your Service Love you all. 🇺🇲🙏💕💝
Anyone that is being negative of this video and making fun of it. Has never had a family member die from agent orange in Vietnam, suicide of young service members. Upcoming kids wanting to serve our country because they want what they were taught. I can’t read many comments, but I saw some negativity in many. Jason’s might be better, which is fine, but this video, gives a glimpse of what military deals with. We don’t see what they see. I don’t know why people are confused about the video. PTSD is real. I have never been overseas and fought their battles. I have been fortunate to not have to as I have many ancestors and family members that have served, lost their life, friends kids. My son in law joined. I know the marines or military don’t ever want thanks. You do it because you have a calling for it. To everyone that served and sacrificed, their wives, kids, etc thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! Remember 22 a day. You made it through sorry for my rant. We need some positive in this world and kindness.
That was entirely too many emotions for 8am.
you vertrens i Love you gys so so so so mutch
agreed for 6:30 am as well
Jeez man your right😂 i already got tears and it’s only 7:45🤣
Yes 9 a.m. here. I'm not a huge country listener but love when I find sad songs.
8:55 here and I’m agree with you
"I made it through because somebody knew I was meant for someone." Who else can relate? PTSD is a rollercoaster but we will survive I promise! 💖
@Morgan Wallen your fans still love you man!! I see you too 💙
My 35 yo brother was drafted in March 2022 to join Ukrainian army since Russia invaded. He spent 7 months at the different bases and then his brigade was taken to the southern front. Within 30 min my brother lost his best friend as their large convoy was spotted by a drone and hit. He lost almost all his friends in just few months and was heavily injured himself. On Dec 11, 2022 his trench was hit by a mine. Brother got 8 wounds. Shrapnel missed his heart half an inch and landed in his lung. Was 14 degrees . Brother crawled 20 yards to the next trench and after a minimum help his buddies had to lay him under the bush until the artillery attack stopped. He could hardly breathe at that point since developed a pneumothorax. Then all the wounded and killed had to be carried by feet 2 miles back where the pickup was. My brother survived. 4 months at the hospital & then few months of recovery. He has changed a lot
War is Hell!! Props from your brother and the men that gave their life. He's a part of great men and women. I lost my best friend on my last tour. He was literally 4 inches from me. We were nearly touching shoulders..
Stop lying dude
It is hard at times to feel "normal" when you are surrounded by people that will never truly understand the burden that you carry inside each and every day.
I so feel you bro cuz i face that every time I hear someone say the mean streets of an American city..
Your fellow brothers are all around you, you just may not see us. We're out there, and we all understand that burden.
Know this all too well. My dad is a veteran and goes through this everyday since he’s come home from Iraq. This video truly represents not only veterans with PTSD but their loved ones who also go through it with them. I cried through the video. Thank you for shining a light so that people can understand better on what it’s like to go through this.
My Father is a Veteran. He brought home a lot of bad things. Things I couldn't control but learn as a child. I was able to join but I've always wanted too. I'm 34 and still willing to join. I have a family to protect plus an entire country. Every time no matter how many times I listen to this it's all tears. I have many friends who came back not the same person who still struggle till this day.
This is definitely my favorite song (even though it's a cover). I showed my mom this video because my father is a vet with really bad PTSD. She cried because this video portrays what its like living with my dad. He is a remarkable man, that's for sure. Although he struggles at times he tries his best to be the best dad and husband he can be. After showing my mother this video she told me that the reason my dad started going to VA meetings was for me. As his PTSD became worse our relationship took a turn and he just wanted to make things right with me and try to be a better father no matter what he had to do. I definitely regret a lot of things I have said to my dad especially when his PTSD was set off. I wish I could have spent more time with him and talked to him more throughout high school and now that I am in college I don't have the luxury of seeing him everyday.
My heart goes out to the Strong men and women who risk it all for peace and justice to avail for the voiceless people around the world…. Love and respect goes to family and friends who lost 😠 a soul on duty. …..
All you veterans, first responders, police and protectors of America, from another veteran to you, hang in there. Life is a gift that can be a struggle at time but there's always someone out there that loves you and is sleeping peacefully thanks to you and others sacrifices. I couldn't be more proud of you.
This short film and song always makes me wanna call the boys to make sure theyre doing alright never know when that call could save a life. Great song Great message.
I know it's a little but late but this is the most underrated comment here
Make the call and talk shit
Wish I could call my guy
Love this video. I understand completley both sides of the PTSD issue, first responders, soldiers in combat, rape, child molestation, etc. the more than many catagories. But please understand this when I say that veterans, mostly those of us who have been in combat have crossed a line where we took life!!! It is not the same as as other PTSD types, it's a line that no matter how hard we try to forget, try to go back to when we were normal, we will never make it back! We can only start from where we are and move forward. For those who have been in combat - taken life, saved life only to lose it right before us, you can do what I did. I turned to the LORD OUR GOD, I put it all, and believe me it was a lot in the hands of Jesus and let him fight those inner demons as we often call them, it's His job, and He is glad to do it, you have only to first believe. Then go and get help, there's plenty of it out there, the VA, private sources, but damnit get off your ass and go and get the help you need!!! I did a total of 15 years between USMC, US ARMY, we who stayed in Europe have nothing, no VA help, only for those who stuck it out and retired, otherwise nothing. That's why I wrote to you about Jesus, He is everything, healer, counselor, shrink, everything wrapped into the guy who died on your cross, when He sat at the right hand of the Father, HE BECAME YOU!!! So when the father looks at you he sees Jesus His Son and you. Remember the part where Jesus spoke the words " I AM IN THE FATHER, AND THE FATHER IS IN ME " " YOU ARE IN THIS THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT, ALL THAT THE FATHER GAVE JESUS HE GAVE YOU, REACH OUT AND TAKE IT, IT'S FREE, THE HEALING BEGINS WITH HIM, THE COUNSELING BEGINS WITH HIM, YOUR SHRINK WAS PROVIDED THROUGH HIM " Remember GOD made some men first responders, doctors, lawyers, HE made us the shooters of our generation, we did our jobs well, it was costly, nervey, downright disgusting at times, but we did our jobs well. Now it's time for some healing, it sits on you, you take the first step, and I guarentee you HE will lead the way, ALL THE WAY, AND HE WONT NEVER STOP OR GIVE UP ON YOU, EVEN WHEN YOU GIVE UP ON YOURSELF, HE WILL KEEP GOING STRONG AND FINISH THE MISSION OF HEALING YOU AND BRINGING TO THE PLACE IN LIFE HE WANTS YOU TO BE, A DEVOTED HUSBAND, FATHER TO YOUR KIDS, RESPONSIBLE SON OR DAUGHTER, MOTHER TO YOUR KIDS, BRINGING YOU TO BECOME A LEADER FOR THOSE WHO HURT FROM WAR!!! I counsel many people this way, also MUSLIMS, BHUDISTS, both military and civilians those affected from war in Europe, and those I have helped from Africa. I won't quit because Jesus never gives up or quits. He never gave up on me, and I know He never will. Take the plunge and believe, your family will see and know the difference in you before you will. Thanks, sorry it's so long. richardsoncliff64@gmail.com
Whats the name of this film??
I was addicted to drugs for many years, hopelessly. Put my amazing wife through absolute hell. She stood by me, who knows why. Just finished my 8th year sober, 5th year in a great job, and two months ago bought a house. God is great. Trust the process…
I have a friend who served in Iraq and he told me listen to this song and when I did it made me cry. Since then when I miss my friend and I do so very much I listen to this song and I hope he knows how much I miss and care about him. Beautiful song. I can’t thank our service men words cannot express my gratitude enough for them. We need to do everything we can to support them especially when they come home where they need love , care and understanding! God bless you all and this song still makes me cry.
You should make it a point of sending a text/call/email out of the blue to tell your friend how much he is appreciated and loved. It could make all the difference in the world to him.
Been there and done that. My wife is the angel that saved me. The quote still haunts me to this day. It has been 52 years and the memories are still there.
Thank you for your service and many sacrifices you made for us.
This about the most raw and emotional short film I've ever watched. Just knowing how much the veterans sacrifice for their country everyday just absolutely blows me away. Although I don't live in the USA, I still support the veterans no matter where I live. I love everything about the American culture and what it stands for. Thank you to all the men and women who are fighting, have fought and fought til the end for their country's freedom. Its men and women like you that make your country what it is. May God bless you all and bring you all home to your loved ones. God Bless the USA ❤❤❤❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
How much Morgan cares for everyone. Not just an exceptional musician, also an exceptional human being. Bless him.
Not like he wrote this
See Jason Isbell
This song hit me hard. I'm not a soldier. So thankful for our soldiers. Me and my cousin Derek would cling to each other as we tried to make it through our childhood. We were and are brothers. We were beaten and broken down. We were so close. Derek at age 15 was put through violent and sadistic trial he broke started huffing paint trying to kill himself . I tried to stop him he was my brother he left me in the hole to fight on my own as he left to walk the streets as a sombie. Try to help he would just run farther away. Today I don't know we're he is I catch myself thinking and praying for him. I've never gotten over it and that was 25 years ago. I'm just thankful now for every day that God his son Jesus has saved me I know there were times I shouldn't be here, but God!
