Lyrics:
Somewhere in the end of all this hate
There's a light ahead
That shines into this grave that's in the end of all this pain
In the night ahead there's a light upon this
House on a hill
The living, living still
Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
But the children are doing fine
I think about them all the time
Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will
Somewhere in the end we're all insane
To think that light ahead can save us from this
Grave that's in the end of all this pain
In the night ahead there's a light upon this
House on a hill
The living, living still
Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
But the children are doing fine
I think about them all the time
Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will
I am not afraid
I won't burn out in this place
My intention is to fade and I will, I will
In this house on a hill
The dead are living still
Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
Keep your children safe inside
Out of pocket, out of mind
Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will... - Hudba

Somewhere in the end we're all insane,
To think that light ahead can save us from all this pain.
When for all we know that light could be a train that is coming toward us and will eventually hit us
im not crying. My eyes are sweating from all these feels
Crying tells us that we have hearts....
+Isabelle DeFranco Ninjas cutting onions!
One of the best rock ballads I've ever heard. I love you so much Taylor Momsen
I'm not afraid, I won't burn out in this place.
My intention is to fade, and I will, I will...
Hey...ill run to the store n get a couple matches!!
I wonder if this line is in reference to Kurt Cobain?
Yes you will
Drive to spokane. Look at the empty ir hack the cam system. Children aren't reason sf doesnt raise kids. Ying yang fucking against are. Dirty there possed regardless this house is theres too most. Donrmt realize. That Mexicans. Americans do if tgere pissed. Then

Sunshine Anderson their*
Conor mcgregor new champ
Lucas Mitsinikos
Nah man, José Aldo is staying the champ..
Sunshine Anderson I can only hope you cannot relate to going down xD
i feel ya.
Incredible voice, talent. All of them. A friend turned me on to Pretty Reckless a while ago, and I do enjoy their music.
A beauty, with a beautiful voice,singing a beautiful song...It doesn't get any better than this.
Easily the best band to come out in the last 10 years.
+Fritz Schoch I'm not sure about "easily" ;)
Gaslight Anthem? Mumford and Sons? The Flobots (depending on how you define "come out")?
ARE YOU FORGETTING IN THIS MOMENT? I'D DIE FOR MARIA!
Can't stop listening to this. Amazing.
@@hajnalkatamas9781 I'll look forward to your answer in another six years. :)
Goddammit! Why does this song make me cry?
NICK nikki Its not weak to cry, stop with the unnecessary hate please.
Because you can feel/understand the music.
Tasha Staunton
Thank you. But I block hate so he/she can type till the cows come home. No one should have to put up with it ;)
It has a mournful feeling and it's likely you will interpret it in a way that resonates with you. That and it has a good ending segment that sounds uplifting/hopeful.
It almost made me too :/
I dont think anyone undestand how sad and heartbreaking this song is! Taylor i love you for making this amazing song! And you are a great singer!
This song moves me at a deeply emotional level and I have no idea why...
I love this song. She has the perfect voice for this song and lyrics are just amazing. So true to the world we live in today with being fed this life is so beautiful until you walk out your door and see what the real world is. She just puts the world into lyrics and the crazy world we live in today. I love the fact she writes her own lyrics and have not heard a bad song from her. We have some critics however we all have our own beliefs in this life.
The writer of this song for sure saw for a moment the greatness and the emptiness at the end of every vain effort we ever did.
They write all their own songs but it's not Always about them sotimes it's about their friends or family
She is amazing that voice transcends you into the song and all of her songs the band is amazing as well, why is this band not playing every where so underrated.
damn that girl can sing
I think this group was underestimated, for me, they make beautiful music, and this magnificent and soulful track is proof of this.
Taylor and her band just Rock.....love this mellow Ballad....they bring it home....xx
Pres. Taylor. Lyden. Has a prob w. Missing kids. Ford. Solved it. We're ford. Prob is lyden went bitch.
Her voice is perfect for her music...nuanced, rich and full of harmonics, and attention arrestingly powerful. The band is a wonderfully supportive match to her growls and shrieking cries. She and the band accompany and frame each other as a symbiotic unit and are a well oiled machine...a Wall Of Sound that could teach Phil Spector new lessons on the meaning of the term that it's been thought he invented. I confess that The Pretty Reckless is for me a recently discovered and newly acquired guilty pleasure.
However, I must also admit that the pleasure does come with some guilt accompanied by some dissatisfaction. Although I appreciate how well they've mastered their personal musical niche, I leave the experience with some aftertaste of the aggravation that comes from tedium. The pervasive theme of rebellion, particularly against religion and the prevailing religion of the west, eventually rings hollow. While in private conversation The Pretty Reckless might reveal some positivity that fuels aspirations that give them reason to wake up each morning (or afternoon), that wall of sound signals little more than a raised fist of opposition. The Pretty Reckless is another example of railing against a church, its theology and its symbols which Momsen and company would have to invent if they weren't already conveniently at hand as grist for shock and awe. While their sound can overwhelm and exhilarate, their trappings and affectations are eventually parodies of themselves that are revealed as contrivances and ultimately silly, undermining the scariness that all the mascara, eye shadow, power chords and theatrical embracing of darkness try so hard to maintain.

The "children" bits get me all the time T-T
***** Im not really sure, but it made me think about the Lolita Slave Toys
this song will find a place on the small list of truly great songs timeless
Favorite song by TPR ♥
I absolutely love this. What a song. Lyrically as well as instrumental. Everything just works here. This is the type of music I myself would love to be making.
Talent like this is more than just amusement, the ability to make people cry when they need to is equally important as the ability to make them smile, and Taylor can do both at the same time.
wow, you made the best compilation of pictures of Taylor I ever saw.
Watching this while listening to Manson :)
Thanks
One of the things I like the most about The Pretty Reckless is that they write beautiful melodies, which sound absolutely amazing in Taylor Monsem's voice.
Momsen
@@tavriltv3615 Thank you, I didn't even notice the misspelling!
@@scullyxenagg Não tem problema. Acontece com todos.
i love the voice it draws you in and keeps you there. her voice it gives those you are hurting a sense of belonging. I love The Pretty Reckless
Such a great music and lyrics. I never thought that the sound of the " Heart Beat" in the music can blend in very well .. Duh..,.. that feelings .. :D ~~~~~~~
Well no one cares. So yeah.
.im honesty. Yeaa
This song is so beautiful. It wakes some "pleasant" sadness in me...
This is my favorite song by them!
I really like this song! At the risk of sounding "emo" (if people are even still using that word) I've always been fascinated by the idea that death is not something to fear and is instead much more peaceful than life. Unless I'm totally missing the point of the song, I definitely get that impression from this song.
I honestly don't fear death itself, I fear all of the things and people that I'll miss out on here if/when I will die
Tina Mansel
She seems annoyed that her kids keep drinking her wine...
@Adrijana_Radosevic Agree with u
God I love her and can you send pics and fun stuff
This is my new favorite song.
I do art for a living and this song is so inspiring and deep. I actually have done art pieces depicting the vision I get when I hear this song. Amazing song.
Where can we see this art?
I do a lotta art but here are the 2 photos that I made that was kinda inspired by this song. facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151892691089887&set=a.10150588492829887.401810.809474886&type=3&theater
and then this one facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152242436594887&set=a.10150588492829887.401810.809474886&type=3&theater
and lastly this one... it's a print from wood block carving. facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153184274889887&set=a.10150588492829887.401810.809474886&type=3&theater
+Sarah Evansco Nice work. I don't have an artistic bone in my body, but I too "see" this song in black and white, if that even make sense.
I love her songs especially this song cause for some reason this song is kinda calm and it's awesome.
her voice takes me places I have never been before.
Best song ever
I absolutely love this song!
Thank you
I showed this song to my teacher and classmate in first period. Our teacher wanted us to do a song project that has to do with our identity, and I picked this song as my first choice. After listening to it with the whole class, I told them why it fits into my identity while telling them what this song is talking about, but I ended up crying in front of everyone since this is the most emotional song I ever listened to. It may be embarrassing for to cry in front of my classmates, but at least it's worth telling them my feelings about this song and how it fits into my identity.
Did your teacher kiss you and ask ya out; )
That's actually fucking awesome. It's like a scene out of a movie. Anyone in that room who didn't let themselves get judgmental learned a whole lot about you right there. Keep being you, kid.
Pussy
@@brianloher7617 lol you little troll bitch, stay tilted 🙃🙃😂😂
ur so brave
Absolutely love this song, so much emotion but one of those that can just chill me out and put me in a good mood regardless. Taylor Momsen has an amazing voice, as talented as she is beautiful :)
beautiful...💗
Cried at this song, love them so much!
Omg waiting for this to be out in the UK!!! So I can buy it yeeee 👌👌👌
Невероятно притягательная песня! Её можно можно слушать бесконечно. Послушайте еще одно произведение "kill me".
Favorite song from the album
Love this song so much.
Wov this is really an amazing rock ballad.
The more I listen to their songs, the more I love TPR !
Taylor Momsen is so good and you know why, she went through it. She got out of Hollywood and I am so proud of her!!!!
this song is fucking EPIC!
Wooow I love this sooooong
i love this song so much. the pretty reckless are an awesome band!!!!!
Wow, now that is an amazing song..pure unfiltered talent.
This is one of my favorite songs. My 16 month old digs it too. He will just sit on my knee and watch the video and ignore everything else going on around him.
I love the strings on this .... it just make a great song ... just brilliant ....
You like strings, you say? Check out Master of Puppets by Metallica, I bet you'll like that as well! And if Kermy and Mrs. Piggy ever get married and James Hetfield could be the pastor of muppets! Whoah, talk about pulling strings...
@@kennylauer412 Cheers - You are totally correct - preaching to the converted a brilliant album - got that when it was released ... funny to think it was 7 years before the lovely Taylor was born .....
i love this song for my past and for her singing it back to me.. i love her... so cool.
I soooo love this,,,,,❤️🌹💗
first time i heard this song. And i love it
love this song
Taylor duet with Avril will kill me.
Like I'm living for that day
oh I love this song sooooooo much
Even more beautiful than "Just Tonight", and that really means a lot ! The most beautiful song in the world tie with "Crash" form Sum 41...(to me)
this song and beautiful too, the strongest to me.
I think when it comes to child stars becoming musical sex icons, Taylor destroys Miley Cyrus by talent alone, not to mention beauty
+BiohazardBunney defiantly Miley is not attractive at all to me
iou43 msp if you mean in attractiveness then no she is not haha
MechaMinilla99 no one cares, you fucking virgin
iou43 msp that's fine if you think she is, everyone has different preferences
+Lenny Miley looks like a ten year old boy with anorexia. Wouldn't consider that beautiful.
Love your music, and Taylor you are just drop dead gorgeous.
Man is she ever hot. Love the music, keeps hope and faith alive! Thanks Taylor Momsen!
Aaron Grahn agreed.
Aaron Grahn totally
Абсолютно случайно забрёл сюда... и залип! Шикарно! Браво!

i think that the quality is not so good that it fits the video and the song, thanks for the effort, has become one of my favorite videos
♥
absolute classic. you cant say that about many songs anymore
I really love this song. Probably my favourite pretty reckless song
Super, super i jeszcze raz zaje*iste!
Can't get enough of this song...
I am not afraid
I won't burn out in this place
My intention is to fade and I will, I will.
I love the shit out of this tune. Play it to death every day. Thanks, TPR.
same here
T.T
ballads of meaning
Never known a song to provoke so much Passion in the meaning of its lyrics..Taylor and the boys have written some great songs BUT this has to be the most thought provoking of them all.......and i Love It
It makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck,very powerful and emotional song,awesome
I play her music at all my get togethers. Everytime I put her music on somebody goes out and buys her albums. Keep going!!!
I listened to this on the front lines...in my mind. USMC
Favourite song of the album; ) i love them all but this is dogs dangleeees
dayum this one is stuck on replay sooooo good :)
me encanta está canción! :3
Absolutely a wonderful great song
Omg I used to listen to this music while I was reading The coldest girl in coldtown from Holly Black.. now every time I hear this is start crying 😭😭😭😢😢😖💔💔
I just got pretty reckless cd (light me up ) and looked the band up on line today and what a band and a great singer Taylor is,she has an outstanding voice and she reminds me of Amy Lee of evenescece band.i will look out for more CDs of pretty reckless.hope the band are still together and hopefully a UK tour in the future.best wishes to the band.
This song makes my cry
I love her voice so much !
WOW!! How great is this.Fantastic
Great song wonderfully sung.. good rock band
...wow❤
This song makes me cry and I don't even know what it's about ;(
Megan Savery If you watch the Vevo video of this song it will make sense. The house on the hill seems to refer to the White House and by extension all political centers, the Kremlin, Parliment, etc. It is about the transformation of children from innocent peaceful creatures into adults that buy into hatred that leads to war and other evil.
Marcel Ledbetter Oh...I've seen the video, and even that didn't make sense to me. Thank you for explaining :)
+Megan Savery It’s about the inevitability and certainty of war, and the inevitable assimilation of nearly all society into obedience with the powers largely responsible.
I love this shit. It’s one of the best rock songs I’ve heard in 20 years. The Pretty Reckless has the potential to be one of the most influential bands of the younger generation.
+Marcel Ledbetter Well, evil that made people do those shit. Evil causes greed and power which leads to war. Who is the victim? Us.
+tommylehman uuiijko75
Gosh this song!! And HER!😳❤️
I can't get enough of her voice.
best song from her in my opinion. the lyrics talk to me more than all the others
Great song.Love.
I love this soo much
beautiful song, luv it..
los amo tanto
love this song. 2
