love the sentiments of the song. NO reason to be depressed about ho other people are, just stick with who you are, don't change your values. your real mates will be there, but were in a dog eat dog world, dont be sad if you get let down,it's much harder to give and definitely easier to recieve. your true mates are much harder to find. xx and the vutures are always around.
Very good song. The line "it's hard to tell if they're your friends, they'll never be there in the end" proved itself a lot in my life... So did the line: "They only care when you're on top....".
i just looked at this song and went...how in the hell did the know that? this band hits dead on with the hearts of people...why are they so underated and how can i atleast try to make them more heard?
i do not believe that this song should cause suicidal thoughts. its just someone is putting depression into words and when u can do that it is a sign of letting go
idk about you guys but smile empty sure makes some real pretty songs that are about some fucked up things...i like that mix...good stuff..if you like this song you might like "end of the world"..i think its called
look people I don't know what all the fuss is about let the kid rest in peace I think about killing myself everyday, EVERYDAY. people tell me I'm strong smart good looking it doesn't matter it doesn't matter how good your life is how great your friends are how much you are loved. Not one of us knows what we are here for we can speculate all day long maybe the kid ( micah) wanted to die maybe he was depressed maybe he didn't like it here I know I don't. It's a mindfuck all the time.
This was the last song he sent to me before he committed suicide. I was the last person to talk to him before he hung himself. I don't know who you are but you don't know a god damn that about what you're talking about. You didn't know him. You're probably one of the flies that buzz around all the bullshit. Sadly, you damned vultures get fed. Pathetic...ordinary...
@@naruto99124 man no offense, but what a waste of energy for your friend. Contexts are a crazy thing. And again no offense, you dont need to do that to yourself or anyone else. All I know is this band moves me, and they always have since the first time I heard them.
I have zero respect for this band. This song attributed to the suicide of a close friend. He felt that the lyrics described his life, and it helped him decide that suicide was the best solution. Find something better to write songs about. If you are depressed, don't market songs about it that convince people that suicide is okay. A song can really create a thought in someones mind and make them make decisions that uplifting music wouldnt really cause them to make. Stop the DEPRESSION!
This genuinely has to be the most ignorant thing I've ever read. You lost a friend, we are all sorry for that. It sucks. What you fail to realize is many of the people who enjoy this song, have a similar connection, be it a friend, or themselves. There is a percentage of people that use this song as a release, to STOP them from doing things. Someone else's words, in a song, did not make your friend choose that path. If anything, you aren't looking at the bigger picture. People feel something, deep enough, that they feel that is the best choice. "Find something better to write about.", again, someone who is capable of writing something like this, wrote it to prevent themselves from doing something worse. You lost a friend, nothing will ever change that. It isn't fair, and it sucks. But many of us, who come to listen to this song, can relate in some form or another, to that same thing....I'm going to chalk this comment up to you being very confused, and sad over what happened, and hope that you don't still view this as such, 5 years down the road. If you do...well then....All I can do is hope you eventually find whatever answer you're looking for mate.
Maximilian, this song is NOT about suicide. Have you ever said anything in anger/frustration? Did it lead you to killing yourself? The lyricist is EXTREMELY angry, at his previous record label, and is calling them out on it. Saying “I can’t wait to die” is not equivalent to “I’m going to kill myself!” ...When I die of natural causes, I hope they play this at my funeral.
The tremble in his voice makes this song even more incredible
Nate Collett The gravel in his voice at 00:53 at "around" really adds to it
Yes it's underrated!
love the sentiments of the song.

Smile empty soul makes me smile for the other songs including this one
Seen em live a few years ago...FINALLY...loved it...i still feel this music in my heart..everytime
Very good song. The line "it's hard to tell if they're your friends, they'll never be there in the end" proved itself a lot in my life...
So did the line: "They only care when you're on top....".
Thank you Smile Empty Soul for everything... only my room and the songs knows it...
Smile Empty Soul kicks ASS!!!! i can relate to a lot of their songs. Love it!
It is good they are not popular, because they are the best, because they make music for us not for producers, that is important! Thanks SES
Right. Fuck the producers. They just want fake ass bands. 🙄
love smile empty soul--great band and great meaningful music--its nice to listen to music u can relate to--
How can someone dislike this song? It's complete truth.
I know right people have no good taste that's for sure
2021 and I'm still obsessed with this song 😌😍
They only care when you're on top
This song has so much more meaning than what's being sung. I love this song imo.
Love this song it is so relatable.
Smile empty soul is in my head
"Fuck you my life is not a fucking game" thank you Sean.
i just looked at this song and went...how in the hell did the know that? this band hits dead on with the hearts of people...why are they so underated and how can i atleast try to make them more heard?
They'll never be there in the end
Exacto
i do not believe that this song should cause suicidal thoughts. its just someone is putting depression into words and when u can do that it is a sign of letting go
The hard reality that was expansively brought to light due to Covid which only few of us ever knew.... 'SES' through decades

They fucking wish they had friends like us now.
@bushleague777 Micah had thought about that far before this song.
*replays*
I have this feeling of wanting to give up life, even through this song, its been there since the time I was cheated on once, I just wished I'd die :'(
Amerl Lane why don't we
Did you die?
Uhh.. huh huh..heh heh…hey baaby… Come to Butthead!
@Mou5yMOUSE9 how do you know, and why didn't you tell someone?

You realize your comment is the equivalent to someone saying "my kid ran over 15 people on the sidewalk with his car because he could do it in GTA."
Everybody blames the song or the artist but never blames the fact they only care when its to late
