    I'll try and keep this short. I found you guys so many years ago while bartending in downtown Des Moines Iowa. I loved everything you put out. After years of alcohol abuse I made the choice to officially become sober. This song has helped me more than you will ever know. I love music that touches the soul, and I relate to both sections of this song. I am happy to say I am 3 months sober today, and after almost 2 decades of heavy drinking, I can fight this. Thanks for writing such a beautiful mental health, addiction ( that's how I see it ) song. You guys are amazing!! Now. Where's the new music lol.

    There is something that you're always running from
    But you can't run from me
    I am your conscience speaking and this is
    What I see... I see the fear in your eyes
    As you run & hide
    Your body's going numb, you're slowly dying on the inside
    This feeling haunts me everyday
    The only thing to do is pray
    No one can save me from myself or this hell I've created
    I'm trapped in my mind, it's a prison cell
    When I become so jaded?
    Mirror, mirror on the wall
    Is there any point at all?
    The reflection that I see
    Only shines to show me
    Better days and better nights,
    And better times when I felt alive
    The deception that I see
    Has sadly taken over me
    I cannot run, I cannot hide
    I cannot find myself tonight.
    I know, I know
    This isn't easy
    When you let go,let go
    The pain stops
    Because I know it's hard to see now
    But I promise, it'll be okay
    I know, I know
    This isn't easy
    When you let go,let go
    The pain stops
    Because I know it's hard to see now
    But I promise you that we can change
    Yeah!
    This all makes me sick to my stomach
    You can't run from your past so give it up
    I see the void in my eyes, it's always calling
    I hear the voice I try to hide, it's always calling
    I can't always believe what's looking back at me
    All these voices that I hear
    Are they angels?
    Are they demons?
    Or the dark half that I fear?
    Mirror, mirror on the wall
    Is there any point at all?
    The reflection that I see only shines to show me
    Better days and better nights
    And better times when I felt alive
    The deception that I see
    Has sadly taken over me
    I cannot run, I cannot hide
    I cannot find myself tonight.
    I know, I know
    This isn't easy
    When you let go,let go
    The pain stops
    Because I know it's hard to see now
    But I promise, it'll be okay
    I know, I know
    This isn't easy
    When you let go,let go
    The pain stops
    Because I know it's hard to see now
    But I promise you that we can change
    I thought I can make myself change
    Just give you're up worthless
    No!
    I'M NOT!
    I CAN'T!
    I can fight this
    I CAN FIGHT THIS!

      @silverdragon13b Před 9 lety +8

      They might just not be listening to the right style for their taste. There is no factually 'bad music', it all depends on the listeners taste. Whether or not a song is good, and how good it is, is a matter of opinion. While this song means a lot to me for personal reasons and I simply adore it, others are entitled to their personal opinion. I will not be mad because someone does not have the same taste that I do, nor will I get into a fight over who's opinion is right, because neither is wrong. There's no point. Listen to what you like, don't listen to what you don't. It's very simple.

    • @alferelli65
      @alferelli65 Před 9 lety +2

      But it *is* generic. This genre on the whole is extremely generic. I could pull a playlist made up entirely of bands that sound just like this. Breakdown intro, screaming, bridge, screaming, painful clean vocals, subtle synth, repeat. That's not to say it's bad but I do not think it is a genre that will be round for very long. Each to his own and all that though, it's not my place to tell you (or your grandpa) what to listen to.

    • @zachhurley334
      @zachhurley334 Před 9 lety +6

      alfie...65 Doesn't every type of music follow the same pattern? If you listen to a country song they'll probably all sound pretty similar because they follow the same music patterns (or because country sucks)

    • @alferelli65
      @alferelli65 Před 9 lety +3

      To a degree, there are formulaic genres and non-formulaic genres. Heck, I love hardcore and the majority of that will sound the same to a non-discerning listener. It just seems that every time I listen to a band of this type then it sounds exactly the same as the last one I listened to (I am not an expert by any means, so if there is anyone that is taking the genre by the balls and doing something different, then I am all ears). And we are definitely agreed on country music, what a load of horseshit.

    • @zachhurley334
      @zachhurley334 Před 9 lety

      alfie...65 Yeah fair enough it can sound very similar. I don't particularly think that's a bad thing because I like the way it sounds so I don't really mind a band or song that sound like generic other bands or songs

    Man, these lyrics aren't good. I could pretty much predict every other line. The state of metal/metalcore/post hardcore/whatever is very stale right now. This isn't bad, it's just nothing to remember. There's nothing different about it. Give me some lines that stick in my head!
    We, as a community, should ban the lyrics: eyes, alive, night, falling, run, conscience, fear and alive.

    I love this song because it tells a story of the struggle many of us have of fighting against our dark half. In other words, the struggle between the good and evil within ourselves. Sometimes to relate to songs we have to reflect them upon our lives and sometimes others ,in general, as well.
