Absolutely yes! I'm ten years into a healthy loving marriage with three amazingly frustrating daughters.. I'm the happiest I've ever been but there's always that one person that tugs at your heart a little bit in the worst way.
Lyrics to this masterpiece 💜 Did someone you know Ever turn on a dime From an angel right into a monster? You still wanna stay Wanna help, wanna heal Only so much that your love can offer Why did I try for as long as I did? Back on the ropes when I knew I should quit Where do I run 'cause I've got no more blood left to bleed? I gotta put you behind me With all the pain that you caused I barely made it out fighting You drained all the life from my love Sometimes in moments of weakness I want you back in my arms But all of the bruises remind me The past is where you belong The past is where you belong You tried to protect And you always defendin' Even when they’re caught red-handed But all that you get For your purest intentions Is your heart wrapped up in a bandage How many tears do my eyes have to make? How many years is it gonna take? Where do I run so that I make it out in one piece? I gotta put you behind me With all the pain that you caused I barely made it out fighting You drained all the life from my love Sometimes in moments of weakness I want you back in my arms But all of the bruises remind me The past is where you belong The past is where you belong I gotta put you behind me With all the pain that you caused 'Cause all of the bruises remind me The past is where you belong The past is where you belong
To all the people who listen to this masterpiece, hope you heal from all the pain you suffered.. Life goes on no matter what don't let them bring you down.. Fighting 💪

This is probably the song I’ve ever cried to in my life. I’m no longer on speaking terms with my mother for 7 weeks now and I’m deeply hurt and this song just explains to me or how I felt about her. Shes my mom you know and il always love her but she chose her path and I chose mine. It’s time to move on and for my mental health she belongs in the past. they belong in the past!
I JUST FOUND THIS SONG MYSELF. I HAVE NEVER HAD A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH MY MOM. I HAD MY SON WHEN I WAS 23 SHE NEVER ACCEPTED US -- SHE SAID HE & I WERE OUR OWN FAMILY-- SHE TOLD ME WHEN I WAS 2 I COULD TAKE CARE OF MYSELF SINCE MY BROTHER WAS COLICKY THAT'S HOW SHE RAISED ME AT A DISTANCE. I TRIED FOR MANY YEARS AFTER MY SON TO ESTABLISH A RELATIONSHIP BUT HE ACTUALLY TOLD ME IF SHE ALWAYS UPSET ME WHY? SHE NEVER LOVED ME I MOVED 10 YEARS AGO TO ANOTHER STATE SHE & MY BROTHERS KNOW WHERE IVE BEEN NOBODY HAS CALLED OR CARED, SO IVE LEARNED IN MY 54 YEARS GOD IS MY (& YOURS) FATHER WHO UNCONDITIONALLY LOVES US ALL. HE KNOWS THE HEART OF EVERYONE SOMETIMES EVEN FAMILY DESERVES TO BE A PAST. I PRAY FOR YOU & YOUR SITUATION DONT LOSE FAITH. STAY STRONG FOR YOURSELF & LOVE YOURSELF TO HEAL
10 years of marriage, 7 years of abuse, 5 years of fixing me when it was him who needed the help. 2 weeks it's been since I walk out 😢 I've been striped of everything
These are the words I wish I could have told my adopted mom before she passed. Thank you for helping me scream them to the stars. Maybe her energy will feel the pain she caused me and my brother. She is in my past forever now.

It's so unfair that someone you loved so much and would do anything for cuts you so deep. You give so much and all they are is a leech, just literally sucking the life out of you. It took me 6 years so let go, I had to learn they didn't love me. That's okay because I have someone now who loves me so much.
I am going through a separation probably a divorce. We’ve damaged each other a lot. It’s hard to let go, and I want to because I know I have to love and respect myself. For now that’s my goal as well as getting close to God. Idk what will happen with my husband I truly don’t. But for now I just want to focus on me ❤
My past is exactly where my stepfather belongs as well as my own mother!! Two abusive parents towards me ! One was sexually abusive and the other was mentally and physically abusive but they are both gone and i have met them go and do not want to think about them ! Let God take care of everything for me!! I am a survivor with the Grace of GOD!!
Crazy how much a song can speak exactly how your feeling and what your going through. Best song I’ve heard in so long and it came out As soon as I needed it🖤 your music is amazing please keep them coming!
Cheated on time and time again, he would tell girls I was crazy when I just wanted answers... I wanted to end my life time and time again... Just wanted what we had in the beginning.. Before him I was in an abusive relationship... I feel he perfectly created a version of himself to make me fall. 7 years later and we are now offically done after hes cheated on me for the last time. We were engaged... Had so many plans for the future, now im kinda lost... I'm having night terrors again... I don't know how anybody could do this to another person.
I assume this song talks more about leaving a toxic romantic relationship, but this hits me as the people I see in this song is my mom and her side of the family. I have left my mother in the past. And once I move out, she’ll finally be where she belongs. My love for the rest of my mom’s family leaves me feeling like I’m being bled dry of it. I will always love them, they are helpful, but so much has happened that I’m drained of any compassion when I’m around them for too long. I’m glad that there’s a song that I can feel like I can put the people who need to be in the past can stay in the past
Just ridiculous tears rn...... You have no idea how much this song can help people to face the trauma and heal it. Thank you again for being you and following your heart. It's beautiful
So my 18th birthday is next Friday and it texted my real dad asking him if he could come and he said no because has kid duty. What he means by that is yet again he’s taking care of some other woman and two other kids other than his actual blood, and then tries to act like I’m the bad person in the situation and honestly, this song has been on replay for the past hour and a half. With me just screaming in the car.
Man, I feel like this song came out just when I needed it. But instead of putting another person behind me, I need to put the old me behind me. 💯/💯 love this song so much!!! Definitely having this on repeat for a long while!
I am a childhood sexual abuse survivor. I put my abuser in prison years ago. He's still serving time. He was my dad.....this song is perfect....it says what I can't explain.

I'm struggling listening to this song. I'm having a hard time forgiving someone that was family for assaulting me in front of my child. I know I should forgive for me but the damage they caused... Idk if I could. There's something of this song that hits so close to home, but it's a vocalization I needed.
I'm sorry to hear that you went through that. It's really hard to forgive when a boundary that big is violated by someone who was family. I grew up being told I needed to forgive, and I knew I should forgive too, but if I could go back and give my younger self some advice about forgiveness it would be this. Don't be afraid to create some distance, from the person, from the location, from others even if they are well meaning and just trying to help. Sometimes forgiveness comes in the background while we focus on moving forward rather than what we are trying to forgive. It took me a really long time to forgive my dad for my parents divorce, I didn't want to, and for many years didn't think I could, but I can honestly say that I have now. It doesn't erase the wrong, or even the hurt sometimes, but I have made my peace with it. Forgiveness can't be rushed, it's a process, the more we "should" ourselves I think the harder it gets. It's certainly not easy, I can relate to this song now because I'm having to separate myself from my mom and sister so that I can heal and forgive them too. It's so hard, and there are days I just want to forget they exist, but it's a process. Just give yourself a lot of grace, and keep moving forward, you'll get there.
@@brittanym. This was incredibly recent for me too. Approx. 3-4 years. I've since disconnected and cut off the person who did this. I know I should forgive, but right now I'm not quite sure that's a possible task I can do. Maybe one day, just not today. I'm even in therapy for all that I endured that day and days well years prior that I endured too. Maybe one day.
@@madsraine6705 Wow, I am so proud of you for setting those boundaries and seeking counseling! That takes incredible courage, and bravery! 🙂 Forgiveness comes with healing, and healing takes time, and time seems to take patience. Sometimes I feel like I lose patience with the process, I feel like I should be more healed, or should have learned how to set better boundaries, or I should have conquered my fears and separated from my family and the pain I feel around them, or that I should be more forgiving toward them. But at the end of the day we are only so strong, and in training to become stronger. We can only take it one step at a time. You are on the right track, and I fully believe over time the healing, and forgiveness will come. You're doing an amazing job! Plus in this process you're teaching your child resiliency, how to handle the process after a bad situation, and how to be mentally healthy. That is a wonderful example for your child! 🙂
I've been struggling over the last week after my mother, who I haven't spoken to in over a year, was hospitalized for the 3rd time since October. She's slowly dying, well, killing herself basically. She doesn't wanna speak to me and I feel the same. No one understands how I feel. No one understands how much it hurts every time I hear she's back in the hospital because yes, she is my mom, but also how it brings up every awful thing I've ever been through with her as my parent. Thank God for therapy I guess. This song is cathartic and all I can say is thank you for sharing it with the world.
11 yrs ago I escaped covert narcissist who I was married to. This song is my anthem - a reminder what I have went through and not to takemy freedom for granted. He certainly belongs in my past.
One day out of a mentally, physically, and verbally abusive relationship and this song had me shaking and pouring tears but thank you Matt for making this song❤
Beautiful. 😢 I got so emotional listening to this. Thank YOU for this masterpiece.. your voice is so majestic. Shed a little tear because your song reached a part of my past I wanted to forget. It’s bittersweet how things ended so quick… Still, I love this song ❤
Keep making these amazing songs bro. I know you are underrated but one day you’ll be on top artists. I’m sure about that! Your voice is powerful and healing❤️
Dear Matt Hansen Just a few weeks ago I foundout about your music by instagram i came around a sponsored song and it was yours and i remember it like it was yesterday the song was let them go the first time I heared it i went through all kinds of emotions happy to tears to mad to thankfull to happy again that song made me realize that sometimes its better to let go then holding on cuz sometimes holding on ends up hurting you more then letting go! That song helped me in so many ways! And then Just a few days ago i came across the short from this song and Just like the last time all the emotions i felt with this one straight up i felt the same! Honestly when i saw this vid online it was uploaded Just a few hours earlier ( time difference) i had to put it onto the speakers after the second or third time i had listen to the song i knew the lyrics Thanks for your music! Music has always been my way out cuz of my troubled childhood soo thank you so so much! Im really really glad I got that sponsored video of you and that I found you! You made a big difference in my life! Big hugs from me Ps. Your music reached the Netherlands ❤
THIS!!!!THIS!!!!!THIS!!!! SHOULD BE THE SONG FOR ALL SURVIVORS OF ABUSE. I'VE SENT IT TO ALL I KNOW!! I AM AN ADVOCATE AND WILL SHARE SHARE SHARE YOU ARE AN ANGEL MATT
Just went to an physical, mental, and an emotionally abusive ex's parents house to get my things a few days ago, I was worried he'd be there but so glad when I saw he wasn't. But in the boxes were pictures of before when everything was okay, as well as a tattoo removal gun (I call it a torture device, it can burn through paper) that he bought so he could remove my tattoos, cause they "weren't cute". Now since then I'm back to having nightmares and I left him 9-10 months ago. I just want them to stop but don't know how to stop them. Should've left him so long before I did. 🤦🏻♀️
I recently stumbled across you and your songs, this and let em go really strike chord with me, this one in particular. They remind me of my ex, I miss her… every day… and think “I want you back in my arms”… but I am starting to think … “the past is where you belong”.
I found you right when your songs literally described my life and what I’m going through. It is so amazing how people can write songs and depending on how you interpret them they can really put a lot of things in perspective for you. Thank you for this song and the meanings behind it
Had this song been released 8 years ago, I would have laughed at it thinking that my trauma wasn’t valid because of how brainwashed I was. Thankfully I decided to think for myself and look at the ugly reality of my family and their generational curse.
This song hurts me to the core. It’s so true to trauma I endured. I wished I had this when I was being abused by those who were supposed to love and protect me as a child. Truly a gift🫶🏻
This song on repeat already. Bawling like a baby. Trauma bonds are the hardest to break.
Girl me too sheeewwww... Just feel it. We'll be better people for it. Sending love.
Trauma is just an unhealed emotional wound. You can heal. You've got this!
I see You. I feel you. I hear you. You will get there. I promise.
Absolutely yes! I'm ten years into a healthy loving marriage with three amazingly frustrating daughters.. I'm the happiest I've ever been but there's always that one person that tugs at your heart a little bit in the worst way.
The hardest to break…. I feel that on a level not many have ever experienced to understand
Lyrics to this masterpiece 💜
Did someone you know
Ever turn on a dime
From an angel right into a monster?
You still wanna stay
Wanna help, wanna heal
Only so much that your love can offer
Why did I try for as long as I did?
Back on the ropes when I knew I should quit
Where do I run 'cause I've got no more blood left to bleed?
I gotta put you behind me
With all the pain that you caused
I barely made it out fighting
You drained all the life from my love
Sometimes in moments of weakness
I want you back in my arms
But all of the bruises remind me
The past is where you belong
The past is where you belong
You tried to protect
And you always defendin'
Even when they’re caught red-handed
But all that you get
For your purest intentions
Is your heart wrapped up in a bandage
How many tears do my eyes have to make?
How many years is it gonna take?
Where do I run so that I make it out in one piece?
I gotta put you behind me
With all the pain that you caused
I barely made it out fighting
You drained all the life from my love
Sometimes in moments of weakness
I want you back in my arms
But all of the bruises remind me
The past is where you belong
The past is where you belong
I gotta put you behind me
With all the pain that you caused
'Cause all of the bruises remind me
The past is where you belong
The past is where you belong
Thank you 🙏
Wow every lyrics super duper good
Thank youuu😊
Thank u so much for lyrics may God bless u abundantly
thanks mate
To all the people who listen to this masterpiece, hope you heal from all the pain you suffered.. Life goes on no matter what don't let them bring you down.. Fighting 💪

I didn't think I needed this song so badly.... Now I can listen to it, I can finally heal and move on.
Thank you

Been waiting for this song to out out for a fat minute. I'm glad its finally out! Song is so relatable and I love it! Your amazing Matt! 🤍
10 years of marriage, 7 years of abuse, 5 years of fixing me when it was him who needed the help. 2 weeks it's been since I walk out 😢 I've been striped of everything
I feel your pain....was 19 years for me...💔
I’m proud of you, you beautiful soul
12 years for me 😢
I hope you're doing okay 6 months on. Well done
GOOD....
These are the words I wish I could have told my adopted mom before she passed. Thank you for helping me scream them to the stars. Maybe her energy will feel the pain she caused me and my brother. She is in my past forever now.

Matt Hansen is officially my favorite singer! So underrated!!!
My past is exactly where my stepfather belongs as well as my own mother!! Two abusive parents towards me ! One was sexually abusive and the other was mentally and physically abusive but they are both gone and i have met them go and do not want to think about them ! Let God take care of everything for me!!

Crazy how much a song can speak exactly how your feeling and what your going through. Best song I’ve heard in so long and it came out As soon as I needed it🖤 your music is amazing please keep them coming!
Absolutely floored by this, every single word is like matt is singing about my life, beautiful lyrics beautiful voice, thank you matt ❤
Anyone in 2024
His voice ❤ you can feel it all
This song found me at the perfect time...
Though it doesn't feel like a perfect time.
Thank you for this song, sir.
I've been waiting for this to come out....trying to break a trauma bond, but honestly.....it's been over a year and I still feel it everyday
After 5 years, I finally left. I've had the preview to this song on repeat for weeks. I needed this ❤️
I've been in a rough place for the last 5 years too. I feel like I'm so close, but still struggling to actually leave. Do you have any advice?
Cheated on time and time again, he would tell girls I was crazy when I just wanted answers... I wanted to end my life time and time again... Just wanted what we had in the beginning.. Before him I was in an abusive relationship... I feel he perfectly created a version of himself to make me fall. 7 years later and we are now offically done after hes cheated on me for the last time. We were engaged... Had so many plans for the future, now im kinda lost... I'm having night terrors again... I don't know how anybody could do this to another person.
I assume this song talks more about leaving a toxic romantic relationship, but this hits me as the people I see in this song is my mom and her side of the family. I have left my mother in the past. And once I move out, she’ll finally be where she belongs. My love for the rest of my mom’s family leaves me feeling like I’m being bled dry of it. I will always love them, they are helpful, but so much has happened that I’m drained of any compassion when I’m around them for too long. I’m glad that there’s a song that I can feel like I can put the people who need to be in the past can stay in the past
Just ridiculous tears rn...... You have no idea how much this song can help people to face the trauma and heal it. Thank you again for being you and following your heart. It's beautiful
So my 18th birthday is next Friday and it texted my real dad asking him if he could come and he said no because has kid duty. What he means by that is yet again he’s taking care of some other woman and two other kids other than his actual blood, and then tries to act like I’m the bad person in the situation and honestly, this song has been on replay for the past hour and a half.

Oh my God!!! Your voice 💚💚💚
Please do Angels Like You by Miley Cyrus 🙏🏻🥺
Pain, soul, passion, love, broken-heart, and healing- all in one. What a gem to the soul.❤️🩹✨
This is soooo good. I’m in love ❤️❤
Man, I feel like this song came out just when I needed it. But instead of putting another person behind me, I need to put the old me behind me. 💯/💯 love this song so much!!! Definitely having this on repeat for a long while!
😔
Me too
I am a childhood sexual abuse survivor. I put my abuser in prison years ago. He's still serving time. He was my dad.....this song is perfect....it says what I can't explain.

@@brittanym. This was incredibly recent for me too. Approx. 3-4 years. I've since disconnected and cut off the person who did this. I know I should forgive, but right now I'm not quite sure that's a possible task I can do. Maybe one day, just not today. I'm even in therapy for all that I endured that day and days well years prior that I endured too. Maybe one day.
@@madsraine6705 Wow, I am so proud of you for setting those boundaries and seeking counseling! That takes incredible courage, and bravery! 🙂
Forgiveness comes with healing, and healing takes time, and time seems to take patience. Sometimes I feel like I lose patience with the process, I feel like I should be more healed, or should have learned how to set better boundaries, or I should have conquered my fears and separated from my family and the pain I feel around them, or that I should be more forgiving toward them. But at the end of the day we are only so strong, and in training to become stronger. We can only take it one step at a time.
You are on the right track, and I fully believe over time the healing, and forgiveness will come. You're doing an amazing job! Plus in this process you're teaching your child resiliency, how to handle the process after a bad situation, and how to be mentally healthy. That is a wonderful example for your child! 🙂
I've been struggling over the last week after my mother, who I haven't spoken to in over a year, was hospitalized for the 3rd time since October. She's slowly dying, well, killing herself basically. She doesn't wanna speak to me and I feel the same. No one understands how I feel. No one understands how much it hurts every time I hear she's back in the hospital because yes, she is my mom, but also how it brings up every awful thing I've ever been through with her as my parent. Thank God for therapy I guess. This song is cathartic and all I can say is thank you for sharing it with the world.
This breaks my heart give yourself some grace and remember that you are not the parent here. You’ll be on my mind and heart ❤
🎉🎉🎉🎉
I have been listening to this on Spotify since it's dropped at midnight ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG

Dear Matt Hansen
Just a few weeks ago I foundout about your music by instagram i came around a sponsored song and it was yours and i remember it like it was yesterday the song was let them go the first time I heared it i went through all kinds of emotions happy to tears to mad to thankfull to happy again that song made me realize that sometimes its better to let go then holding on cuz sometimes holding on ends up hurting you more then letting go! That song helped me in so many ways!
And then Just a few days ago i came across the short from this song and Just like the last time all the emotions i felt with this one straight up i felt the same!
Honestly when i saw this vid online it was uploaded Just a few hours earlier ( time difference) i had to put it onto the speakers after the second or third time i had listen to the song i knew the lyrics
Thanks for your music!
Music has always been my way out cuz of my troubled childhood soo thank you so so much!
Im really really glad I got that sponsored video of you and that I found you! You made a big difference in my life!
Big hugs from me
Ps. Your music reached the Netherlands ❤

YOU ARE AN ANGEL
MATT
I wish you understood the consequences of your actions before you went too far.
Never been so excited to listen to a song or have a song I relate so much to xx
Just went to an physical, mental, and an emotionally abusive ex's parents house to get my things a few days ago, I was worried he'd be there but so glad when I saw he wasn't. But in the boxes were pictures of before when everything was okay, as well as a tattoo removal gun (I call it a torture device, it can burn through paper) that he bought so he could remove my tattoos, cause they "weren't cute". Now since then I'm back to having nightmares and I left him 9-10 months ago. I just want them to stop but don't know how to stop them. Should've left him so long before I did. 🤦🏻♀️
I want to die and be reborn as Matt Hansen's voice😭❤️ oh lord please make my wish come true!!! This guy is too holy
This im going to put this on
2026 FIFA World Cup 🇨🇦🇺🇲🇲🇽⚽️⚽️⚽️
Hey Matt!!! My friends and I are going to your concert in Houston and we can’t wait!!! :) We’d love to meet you backstage ☺️🫶
I recently stumbled across you and your songs, this and let em go really strike chord with me, this one in particular. They remind me of my ex, I miss her… every day… and think “I want you back in my arms”… but I am starting to think … “the past is where you belong”.
BFF 🫂

I found you right when your songs literally described my life and what I’m going through. It is so amazing how people can write songs and depending on how you interpret them they can really put a lot of things in perspective for you. Thank you for this song and the meanings behind it
I came in at 4.6k and now it's at 11k!!!! So excited!!!! 😛🥵😛🥵😛🥵😛🥵
I really needed this right now because I am just going through this ❤❤ LOVE IT
The timing of this is perfect. Thank you so much
To him: though you tried to break me to pieces, I put myself back together stronger than before. You didn't win over me. I'm happier without you.
I ammmm so happppyyy it is out, I just love it sooo much, the lyrics, the voice, the energy, it is a masterpiece!
Had this song been released 8 years ago, I would have laughed at it thinking that my trauma wasn’t valid because of how brainwashed I was. Thankfully I decided to think for myself and look at the ugly reality of my family and their generational curse.
I been waiting for this to come out for like a month
Grazie per condividere il tuo talento, fai bene al cuore ❤️
I've been waiting for so long, awsome song love it
Crying to this song 😮💨
If you come across this comment
I hope you heal from that one relationship ❤️🩹
Your music sir save my lonely soul 😭✨
Finally! Thanks Matt, its a piece of Art. Already on Repeat. 💯🤝
I BEEN WAITING THNK YOU.- your new follower❤️
This song hurts me to the core. It’s so true to trauma I endured. I wished I had this when I was being abused by those who were supposed to love and protect me as a child. Truly a gift🫶🏻
❤️
I been waiting for this song to come out. This is one of my favorite songs because I understand what the meaning of the song
Masterpiece ❤️🔥❤️🔥
But all that you get for your purest intention is your heart wrapped up in a bandage 🤕❤️🩹
Finally thank you so much for releasing this. It's a beautiful, emotional and over all amazing song
This reminds me of when I got abused and now they try to make things better when I still have trama but don’t worry I am ok now
Mental health is so destructive to everyone involved. Can so relate to this. And I'm the one with the problem. So sad to see it from the other side
Thank you so much for this beautiful song, I feel like I can heal with this song 💜
So stoked this finally dropped!! My soul needed this!!
I've been counting down until I could hear this full song. So beautiful and honest. Playing on repeat.
The is now on repeat!!!! I need this sing so bad.
Matt, seriously would it be copy right to make a cover?
The highlight of my day! Love this song! 🎉
Thanks Matt This song is perfect I needed so much ❤️
You have no idea how much this means to me at this time I really needed to hear your words. Thank you.❤
