He sits & he waits
Feeling broken & hollow
Hands held close to his face
Screaming why do I bother?
They'll just tear me down,
Rip me apart, cast aside like a sinner
With no words from the wise
Will you ever learn?
Learn to listen
Can you hear them calling?
You'll testify to justify, you have to find a way!
Can you hear them calling?
With arcane eyes you're staring back at someone with no face!
Can you hear them calling?
She lies there in wait
& feeling so hollow
Can't find love in this place
Left alone with her sorrow
All the promises you made
When you stood by her side were so broken
When you threw it away
We'll mobilize, not pacify to save another day
Can you pick up all the pieces of this broken generation?
Can you hear them calling?
The road to hell is paved in good intentions & apathy
What did you expect when common sense is your enemy?
I'd rather burn alive than drown inside your reality
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
We'll climb the walls to scratch the sky to save another day
Can you pick up all the pieces of this broken generation?
Can you hear them calling?

I hope the metaphorical representation of the system doesn't start using Wi-Fi now :(
Scrolling through comments and stumbled upon you, followed for a while. Just didn't expect to find a comment from you
OMG DAVE
Why am i finding your comments almost everywhere? xd
here we see an intellectual, pink striped creature of interest in it's unnatural habitat.
Well hello there Dave! Didn't expect to see you here!
3:05 Lets all take a moment to admire Alan's guitar flip, hes done it again (;
I thought I was the only one that noticed it ahah
+Irvin Vazquez It's allot harder than it looks. Stage tricks are really under rated these days.
+Irvin Vazquez thats how my friends guitar broke
+Irvin Vazquez even then if you have a heavy guitar it's possibly to rip the locks out of the guitar. I almost did it with my Les Paul, that was almost really bad lol.
Well yeah man Les Pauls are known for being tanks! With something like an Ibinez or a Fender (if installed properly) should work for stunts like this no problem.
Why did I stop listening to this type of music? This is awesome!!!
me too!
That's what I think after I stop listening to this music for a while.
I listened to this kind of stuff when I was 3. my mom loved metal and hard core.
+The proxy That's suh cool dood
But you know kpop is life listen to vixx XD!!
Aaron has to be the son of Jack Black.
Nope, he's mine!
+brandon kittson Austin looks like Mclovin? Are you blind haha..idk who else you'd be talking about
+Sup Dewd Aaron is a fuckn champ, dem clean vocals tho
+Sup Dewd I definitely see the resemblance lmao
+Sup Dewd I was just thinking that haha
oh yes
YESS!!!!!!
yessss adam yessss! btw ily
Adam and Bryan yessssss
Hi Adam
ADAMM
that's so crazy that people don't like this song!?! I love it! I think it's perfection, they haven't sold out they've decided to change their lyrics which is amazing because most bands aren't brave enough to do that! I have been listening to this on repeat because I love it so much
I remember when this song first came out- I hardly heard Austin's singing voice. I panicked.
OM&M logic. Writes a song about being stuck on you phones and not appreciating life, so they make an addictive song so peeps can be even more on their phones xD
Best 2015 song for me !
Omg I cried this is so inspirational, now I'll stop cutting my arms with a butterknife I promise
NOOB, we hardcore cutters use spoons. Like, god, i bet you only do it for attention but i don't i do it because i literally hate my privileged life.
thebaconflapsable You're too hardcore for me, spoons must hurt really bad
You're both extremely lame, like, haven't you heard about forks?
i got fucked up using a whisk once..
Lol, call me when you use a piece of fishing line
All these people bitching about it "not being heavy enough" or "not having any breakdowns" clearly aren't listening for the right reasons. Good music is good music. It's not about how heavy a band is compared to before, and it's not about how many breakdowns a song has. Jesus. Grow up.
this album was a masterpiece
Whos will listening in 2023? Cause I am ❤️☺️ always be a banger 🥹
🙋
OM&M sounds great on they're newest album. I don't get why people say they're bad now. They sound better than they have before
Its because everyone hopped on the "only heavy metal" bandwagon.
Actually they aren't really that different. They just have a new sound. Bands should never stick with one Sound.
Munchkin The Dino WE ARE RUNAWAYS!!!
Stop thinking of the band as a genre, look at them as an artist. Artists change over time, people change over time through influence and life change happens. This song is outstanding, if it had a different bands name on it everyone wouldn't say they don't like it. I cannot belive the negativity this song is getting. Its amazing. Maybe that's just me? I love the grudge like vocals of Austin really that's my favorite type of music. This really makes me appreciate of mice and men more.
Funny thing is we're all watching this most likely on our phones.
+Robynelli I don't own a phone
I don't have mom.
+sky jumper What's a mom?
It's the thing is the wind
I'm actually watching on a tablet because my laptop isn't working. and I am at home, so
this song shares the same message as Three Days Grace's song "I Am Machine": Powerful.
ReprogrammedToHate síiiii, alguien que también conoce a los 3DG.
Damn..it’s already been 3 years since “I Am Machine?” Feels like a few months ago since Adam left them.
I get a deftones feeling with this song.
yeah... kinda
Except Deftones are far superior :P
same ... put me off it
Is that a good thing? I mean the deftones are the far superior band here.
Swagnemite Depends on how you look at it. I just get a feeling of this in this song. There other songs are completely different though in their new album.
everyone complaining about austin's "missing screams": the band openly said, that they'll try out something new & that austin will sing more. on the contrairy they want aaron to do more of the screamos. bands change. i miss their old heaviness etc. too because it was just perfect, but they evolve & this song still is very good. i support them. and it's just one song, it's not like they made a whole album in a totally different style.
"Screamos"?
finally someone that argees with me. this song is fking awsome and true fans will support them!
"Screamos"
Damn it’s been years since I hear this band and tbh brings back the golden days back
the moment when you realize how much Aaron Pauly looks like Jack Black
Omg true 😂
Thank God, I'm not the only one!
Even more now with his beard
Now that you mention it...
tru af tho
I feel so bad for whoever has to wrap all that cable.
It was me! It was horrible! But worth it in the end because the video turned out great!
Sarah Tither-Kaplan I bet your over-under skills are on point then. Lol
kblunt18 so true. so true.
also if you like this video you should check out the lead actor's music facebook.com/cameronfifemusic
I was literally thinking the same thing after those two people found that building with all the cables lmao
I feel like that entire music video was a trip hazard.
i wonder how may times they fell during the recording...
kaitlynosaur if they had the outtakes and it was literally them triping over, being tripped or trying to trip people.
Mario Fatovic I was just thinking that lol!!
Go on BMTH'S Shadow Moses, it looks like they are making fun of musical.ly
SilversoulX The Unknown Legend no they're not 😂
Bumping this in Middle School was an experience
My only regret in life, is that I didn't find OM&M's music sooner.
LOVE IT.
They get softer with each album after The Flood.
Nothing will ever be as good as The Flood and The Flood Deluxe, sucks aye
They sound like every other generic band now
And that is a problem how?
Destructive Beauty Did I ever say that it was a problem?
I don't like their recent work and that's subjective, not a problem.
[S]unjay May I just be thankful that for once, somebody on the youtube comments of a music video, mentions and agrees that one person's opinion isn't to be generalised! Thank you man! You may continue whatever you were doing. :P
Happens with almost every band as the members mature and shit becomes more than just trying to be heavy to please everyone.
I just recently discovered this song. Wtffffff😭😭😭. I've missed out. I was hooked instantly holy shit. Idk but I can't help to sing this with passion. Anyone else?
Relevant and beautiful.
Great video :)
Ik except for all these hoes talking shit
RIGHT !!!! i really love it !!!
Bryan hazme un hijo
Agreed!
Yes
i dont care if they dont scream, i dont care i they dont jump but this song has a really really good message that only of mice and men would leave
*if shit
That guitar flip gets me every timeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh *eargasm*
I really miss listening to of mice & men
Seriously loving this. I've always had just a casual interest in the band, but this song has made me a bigger fan. Great job!
This is gonna take a minute to grow on me
Alan at 3:05.. i repeated this more than a thousand times to realize it... WHY DO I HAVE TO LOVE THIS BAND SO FREAKING MUCH!???
Austin and Aaron... A+...
I love when i hear a good song with a good video but then i look at the comments and its everyone who should be supporting these dudes as a group, fighting with one another.
So good. It was cool to hear Austin sing a little bit. Gosh I can't wait for the 24th!
Austin, if your reading this, just wanted to say thanks, i have God in my life today. You helped me realize what i needed to go on. Thank you.
One of the best new bands out there love this band one of my co-workers went to a concert of a mice and men never even knew who they were then I heard one of their songs
For all of those people who think OM&M are any less of a band, or not "HARD" anymore I can only say OPEN YOUR CLOSED MINDS!!!!!!!!!!! The changes bands go through as they evolve come from their life experiences, such as getting older. Their sound has become so much more complete with each album. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the screaming for motional effect, but how many songs can you use that same style before your fans (and the band themselves for that matter) get bored with the monotony! I think it shows how much they have evolved when I hear their latest releases, they still evoke a tremendous amount of emotion with their music, now it just sounds more complete!
"The video is a metaphor for the current state of the Internet/technology-obsessed generation. As technology advances, life is lived out through LED screens instead of looking at the beauty in the world around us. This generation needs to begin taking action and 'unplug' instead of mindlessly entering data into computers." Tino Arteaga (the kickass drummer)
Let's talk about this music video for a second. This is an awesome message! Get off your phones, let go of your technology, and enjoy your surroundings! This is an awesome video tied to a great song. Thank you, Of Mice!
I love how he screams now it sounds so cool. I loved it before but yeah ^.^ this band is the greatest.
Kinda reminds me of Breaking Benjamin, I really like their new sound.
I love you wow stuff bro
Woah, first Breaking Benjamin comment I've seen on an OM&M video. This sorta sounds like "Crawl" from "Dear Agony".
Sounds nothing like Breaking Benjamin. Nor does it sound like the 2 songs Binca mentioned. You've just insulted one of the best bands with this radio friendly poprock shit.
RoyalGaming she said one song and a album but I can see why u said that since the song is also called dear agony. But whatever have a good day!
This sounds more like Chevelle than breaking benjamin...
"Those cords look so ridiculous" *looks down at headset wire coming from my head going into computer* "oh"
music is life!!!!! *achievement unlocked* *happiness level increasing and stress decreasing*
This song live touched my heart...I felt it so much..literally cried,they just know how to hit your soft spot and how to relate to your feelings..❤
In my opinion they haven't changed they've just grown up. 😐💖
I saw them play this live at a festival, it wss really cool.
+Felix Nilbog They're one of those bands that even if you don't like them, their live sound is always on point. Seen them a couple of times at Warped tour and they always nailed it.
Totally, they defitely know how to put on a show.
Austin sounds so freaking good...! Not to mention he looks good too..... no, but I luv Of Mice & Men!!! They will always b my favorite band!!!!
The message behind this song really makes you think about your life...
i love this band
This is honestly one of my favorite OM&M songs, despite it not being as "hardcore" as their past music. The message is deep and relatable for me, and the music video is fucking awesome!
Of of my Favorite bands just listening and I love this!
I have never been a big fan of these guys but Im starting to. I really like this song and many others. I like their old songs and their new ones, I don't get why people are complaining they are still good.
I love the idea of the music video.
Like this broken generation of kids with technology controls them.
and those two made a change.
AND MAN, THIS ALBUM IS INSANE! LOVE IT!
Sarah Hazel . of mice men
Really gonna miss Austin with the band!!):
I don't understand why people wouldn't like this and prefer their old stuff this us just amazing 😁😁
Thumbs up if you saw this amazing band in Nottingham a few days ago...I did and they were perfect!!
Young Jack Black on bass!!??
New favourite band
After I heard this song, I started putting away my phone more often . . .
this is the 24th time( in a row) that I have listened to tis song and for some reason, I cant stop! I love this, so much.
This song aged like fine wine
i love how Jack Black has joined to sing for these guys!
Why is everyone saying ''OMG IM CRYING'' here? like wtf
rise records' audience is all tumblr girls
Fan girls dude... -__- it's annoying, right?
Ryan Billiam Very annoying
Ryan Billiam haha I'm a girl and I find them annoying
***** congratz
I am really glad that Jack Black and David Schwimmer decided to get together and make this great music video. Awesome!
Listen to something else.
Perception is reality!!!!!!!
It’s all about how you really listen
Aaron:
Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
Me with the higher volume:
YEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!
Who loved when Alan did that guitar swing . I know I did
This new style is amazing. Fits Austins voice much better. His scream is to screamo for my tastes. Restoring Force was a turning point for them and I love that album. I'm excited for another great album from these guys.
To clarify: I'm referring to his screaming on the first two OM&M albums.
I actually recently saw these guys live in gothenburg! They were literally amazing and impeccable stage presence. To all of you Who are afraid they've gone soft, take it Easy, this song hit hard live and moshpits were moshed.
Spoiler alert: George kills Lennie. No rabbit tending.
Omg this comment cx
omf how fucking dare you i only got up to the end. xD
+Throwing Spaghetti sorry bby
Jam! i remember reading it and when lennie died i cried wtf was wrong w/ me
...And that, ladies and gentle men, was a reference to a book that bored not only me, but my entire English class-and the rest of the school...I'm pretty sure the only person who liked it was the teacher and the exam board.
I did not see that coming. o.o
2016, are you serious? I'll miss you Austin😭💔.
I really really can grasp the meaning of this song. This generation is a broken generation!
I've been searching for this song for like 5 years, and the only thing I remembered Is that I saw this video clip on MTV Rock around 2016. It's been a long search
I think Aaron is Jack Black's long lost son..
Nope, he's mine.
that's what I thought 😂
JAJAJ Tenacius D
this song is amazing i don't care what people say wake up call bands change i know shocking not to change means they wont evolve if you don't like it to bad every band in history and so on will do it
Your comment is good but use the right grammar. I know you probably don't care but my brain hurts so please... Make TH-cam a better place and use punctuation
My opinion, without any attempt to infuriate anybody: Austin should be the only singer. This song proves is incredible capability of not only screaming but singing in simple tones.
Definetly. No hate on Aaron, he's really good. But if OM&M wanted to go on without him sadly they could. Just like Shay :(
I really like Aaron. Like I'm not hating either but I think his voice adds something to the band that other bands don't really have. OM&M wouldn't be the same with just Austin
this video tells me how so many people don't really pay attention to their surroundings in reality and that the people who do, can't find people like them close by until they meet them.
Look up people, look away from your screens, put down your phone or whatever for once and socialize. You never know who's needing someone to talk to. Look up.
Austin's cleans are starting to sound better.
Them's fighting words! Maybe check out Jamie's Elsewhere if you haven't? (his old band, lead vocalist). Might change your opinion. Might not.
Matt - Boostz who you talking to?
Well this is nothing like The Flood or Self Titled ...
R.I.P the Of Mice And Men I actually liked
bands progress/change, get over it
Yep and now we get a shitty Linkin park clone XD
One there the same band
Two there just trying new things
Three if you really liked this band you would understand what there doing no being all negative about this song
Tall are so fucking negative. They're trying out something new. It's not up to you to decide what the hell they do.
Tiffany m Ferrant It's not new if every other fucking band is doing it
Time flies it’s insane
Oh my god I don't know where I've already heard this song, but I know it!!
This is awesome,I love it. Sorry if you were expecting some boring metalcore song that sounds like every band at Warped Tour. I love the Nu Metal/Alternative influences,my first favorite genre of rock!
not gunna jump on the bandwagon and say they've sold out and they're just a fangirls band as i enjoyed restoring force and listened to it obsessively for quite a while. I appreciate restoring force for its diversity and that they want to grow and change sound as any decent band should, by wanting to progress and find their own comfort. For me Restoring force sounded great in parts and offered greater diversity in parts but lyrically was not as great as the flood, which to me was the pinnacle of what a metalcore album should be. the flood was/is simply the best metalcore album imo. Shay has such a unique voice which compliments Austins Fry's so well. The Reissue songs were brilliant too and to me were a step up. Restoring force felt like a move in to a more marketable sound whilst keeping elements of metal core and expanding idea's and boundaries of what they were comfortable with, I like Aaron and think hes a great replacement but he does not have that uniqueness of voice that makes the band distinct. Ill wait till the release of the full reissue and next album but i feel like their going pop rock and not even at a gradual pace like bring me, This song is just lyrically and instrumentally generic and doesn't hold me or make me want to just smash repeat like half of restoring force, the flood and the self titled does/did. This might grow on me but god i miss that poetic vibe, metaphors and semantic fields they had going on. Still buzzing to see them in March anyway and id forgive my unease of this if they played purified or let live for me!
I agree with you. This song sounds a bit like its attempting to walk away from that vibe they had in the flood. Idk if they're trying to get more fans bt this song is a no for me. I love them and hopefully they go back to their old stuff. This song just makes me appreciate the flood and the self-titled album more than ever.
AbiV3 bump 4 fellow open minded flood lover
Austin reading this and thinking to himself, Shayley who?
you nailed it bro
You are right. I idolized shay for having such a great very cal range. He was amazing. But they did market to a radio friendly generation.
Incredible band much love ❤ rock on 🤘
I'm watching this glued to my cellphone
This song has such a wonderful meaning behind it. Everyone is so addicted to technology that they can't even face reality anymore. They're hurting the people they love by being too obsessed with technology. Don't focus on the vibe of the song, focus on the lrics. This BROKEN GENERATION really needs to step a little into reality. Great work, OM&M! Wait a go, Austin! This message needed to be delivered!
I normally don't like pop but this is really good
+Nex: TheEliteGamingGroup ... Okay... I really want to say something...
The Tary ????
don't you think pop is a bit of a stretch? sure, it's not metal like usual, but still, at least hard rock.
The Tary Barely tho
Yes, pop music. This Of Mice And Men song, because it is less heavy than usual, is pop.
Wow. In love with them all over again
I love this SO much. I don't know why I ever stopped listening to them, or this music in general. digging Austin doing cleaner vocals, stoked for this album!
Its like they predicted Pokemon Go would come out lol. People be acting like fuckin zombies now man... ¬_¬
Because zombies go outside with their friends to walk and have fun
KevinsYeah i don't get the fun in it but whatever, that's just me. Ain't judgin...
+Jamanator9 growing up playing pokemon and wishing that you could do it in real life was part of our childhood. now that we can, it's obviously going to have a shit ton of us playing it.
Well to be fair, Pokemon Go was announced before this song even came out but was just released this year lol
+Jamanator9 I agree with you, when it first come out you spent hours "catching Pokèmon" when you were actually catching fucking pixels on a screen which has no meaning or value to you, and now you can do the same and waste further hours of your already pathetic lives catching even more useless pixels on your mobile devices XD xD 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 fucking pathetic xD like Jesus Christ I get it when you were younger like the generation which grew up with it but now when your what 18-25 running around like a moron saying look fellas I just caught fucking squirtle, then wonder why people look at you like you are a pathetic little child who needs to grow up and realise that they are not real they have no value to you and cannot help you at all in life. What say you are 17 now yea, and you go for a job interview and you have fuck all on your CV accept for and I quote. " I caught every Pokèmon on Pokèmon GO, is that a useful skill and achievement". No it's not
I'm just happy to see that Austin is doing more singing than Aaron in this song. In Restoring Force I felt that Aaron was taking his spot as the lead singer and Austin was just becoming the back up vocals almost. Aaron is a good singer and all, but remember that Austin is the lead singer.
They are just so amazing, if u don't like them don't watch them and don't post mean stuff about them. simple as
This needs a few BILLION more view... get the message across!
Guys , please come to Peru
+Maria Fernanda Ostolaza sería hermoso
Si seria maravilloso
Nobody talking about Austin SINGING?!
SO GOOD ~~~~~ , i love Alan's riff , SO NICE ~~~~~~
MV is literally what we see every day
