LYRICS
Let the ocean take me...
You've gotta know kid that it ain't easy.
To take on all of your grieving, yeah you gotta believe me.
Well don't lean on me 'cause I am falling, please don't fall with me.
I really need you here, yeah I need you so don't leave.
And don't count on me 'cause I am drowning, please don't drown with me.
Just hold me in your heart, let the ocean take me.
And you think I don't read every message that you send?
You think I turn a blind eye, you think I'm just like them?
It breaks my heart, all these stories, brings me to tears all this grief;
and I feel so fucking helpless when I can't be your relief.
Well don't lean on me 'cause I am falling, please don't fall with me.
I really need you here, yeah I need you so don't leave.
And don't count on me 'cause I am drowning, please don't drown with me.
Just hold me in your heart, let the ocean take me.
There is hope in my eyes, there is hope in these words.
And there are far too many reasons for you to stay here on this earth. Stay with me.
Well don't lean on me 'cause I am falling, please don't fall with me.
I really need you here, yeah I need you so don't leave.
And don't count on me 'cause I am drowning,
please don't drown with me.
Just hold me in your heart, let the ocean take me.
Let the ocean take me.
on a serious note, Joel wrote this with the feeling in mind that he receives after reading fan mail from depressed teenagers or just depressed fans in general. It was said in a blog he posted on reddit that there would be evidence of self harm on countless show goers. He relates with a lot of us on such a personal level. He said he felt helpless because there's no way he could try to individually help these kids writing him. therefore he transcended it in to this song and video. To send the message that he relates and wants us to know that we are not alone. He feels our pain. This alone is one of the MANY reasons I LOVE Joel and The Amity Affliction all together.
That is amazing 😭
I just read his statement and came back to listen to it more in depth now that I have the meaning behind it. I can barely listen to it now without getting tears in my eyes. This is one of the deepest songs i may have ever heard. So many of Amitys songs are speaking directly to the audience and I absolutely love that. Instead of pretending like we arent real humans with lives and emotions and were just faceless fans, they recognize their fans as individuals and it's a beautiful approach how joel speaks to us through his lyrics.
I never knew this. The meaning of the whole song changed for me now.
song shown they care and listen to their followers
I got so confused while reading this cause my names Joel
2024, who is with The Amitty Affliction?
who will I see in Atlanta this year?
2024 and beyond! ♾️
🎉🎉🎉
Meee
We never left.
My son had this on his Facebook feed and he died in March of this year. From fentanyl poisoning and I didn’t know how depressed he really was. I can relate to major depression and bless all
You young ones. I. hope you all find peace and happiness because life is short. 🥰
I’m sorry for your loss 😢 I hope you find peace too ❤
@@muffinz699 thank you 🙏 bless you.
I am so sorry. 😢 That is heartbreaking. Seems like you loved him w/ all your heart.
Blessings to you and your family. I hope you can peace in knowing that he’s not feeling that pain anymore (and he’s watching down you)
Im so sorry for your loss… i love you… all the loved ones we lost do to! Your words have touched me and i hope the ones growing up now have people in their lives that love them and are there for them… and i hope people who sell fetynyl realize what thier doing and stop. Only a matter of time till it kills someone they love too… im sick of losing friends and family.
:(
The part where he says “There are far too many reasons for you to stay here on this earth” hits hard
Ben Donahue always the line I cry over
Ben Donahue hits hard for me aswell bro 👊🏿
Montana Crews too
Bloodborne💪
Can't relate.
I don't get why the kid's depressed, he's got the fucking Amity Affliction doing a live concert in his bedroom
lol
LOL TRUE
lol
Lol
because he wants to do homewroks
These guys are legends. They have made a HUGE impact on my life. I hope they go down in history as one of the most influential metal bands. They've been around for a long time. They need the love they deserve. They are one of the best.
They've been together since 2003, that's hardly forever. They're mediocre at best and sure, they're a good listen, but c'mon man.
They aren't mediocre. They're pretty great.
You're right. They're pretty mediocre at being great. Sorry for the confusion.
What bands do you listen to?
Rubber bands.
Kid shouldn't be complaining. He gets Amity Affliction to give him private concerts in his home!
ha-ha godly comment, don't know why there are no likes
+AceOfSpadezA not only that but hes got a pretty cool bring me the horizon poster too.
+AceOfSpadezA lmao true. they're awesome. like I See Stars they have such a great balance between their electronics and the heavy stuff.
really I didn't know that. it's such a shame this band has such great songs.
+Makuyii I've seen them live and they were amazing! idk what you're talking about.
I wish Amity would perform live in my room whenever I feel like this...
I love all of their songs and they have all got me through tough times. The lyrics to this song mirror my feelings perfectly.
❤🖤❤
That's the intention behind the music video, if you dig deep enough you will find their meaning behind the lyrics. This song is pointed towards the fans and people who find solace in their music, yet they express the inability to truly help them otherwise as they are also drowning. It brings tears to my eyes.
same
the thing a love the most about this song is the piano, i dont know why but it just gets to me you know?
+AfterlifePlays i love taa but the piano/violin sounds amazing
The first time I ever heard one of their songs was on Pandora and I think it was this song but I was like wow this is really nice and then when Joel came in I was like this band just got 1000x better holy shit who is this
lol joel makes everything better
#lovejoel
Check the piano version of this song then, its amazing
OK so i was reading a little bit about this song and this band (I'm a newer fan of them) and about Joel's struggles. I about how much he was struggling and his problems with self-destructive behavior. He had said that he wrote this song to everyone to say not to lean on him because he's struggling with the same problems many of us may have. In the song when he says "And you think I don't read every message that you send? You think I turn a blind eye, you think I'm just like them? It breaks my heart, all these stories, brings me to tears all this grief; and I feel so fucking helpless when I can't be your relief." I feel like he's talking to us saying that he knows what some have gone through and he's aware of how much some suffer; but he's going through the same things. He's falling and he doesn't want us to go down with him. This hit me really hard. I just want him-and the rest of the band of course- to know that they can lean on us if they need to and that they can rely on us to help them out the same way they help us all the time. But that's just me.
***** i also heard about the pittsburg (i think i spelled that wrong) story. He had a seizure and had someone not found him within ten minutes he would have died
Kelly Crowley Pittsburgh is about joels issue with alcohol and how he found himself "drowning" and helpless,, the ideal of the curch burning ect. is that those beliefs that couldve saved him were burned up by the alcohol, and there is a letter regarding this song on Theamityaffliction.net
Nathan Young yeah I've heard what Pittsburgh is about but I didn't know about the church. I'll have to read that letter then. Thanks bro
+Nathan Young the liquor store was on fire too. Seeing buildings n stuff on fire is a early symptom of schizophrenia so theres that too
Michael Peltier Joel never suffered schizophrenia however, the idea just came from him torching all his weaknesses, or rather what causes the helpless feelings he has. he rarely drinks nowadays apparently
I liked Pittsburgh but felt that it wasn't gonna be the song I fell in love with. This is that song.
I've been friends with a kid for about 4 years. Best friends at that, we met thru Twitter back when Twitter wasn't full cancer accounts. He lives in Canada and I live in New Jersey. We'd always FaceTime and bullshit randomly or when we needed someone to turn to and were down on our lives in a rut we'd be there for each other. Amity was our favorite band so we clicked. We'd say he's Joel and I was ahren. This year about 2 weeks ago I drove up there and finally met the kid and his family and we would scream our lungs out to this song and other amity songs. The kid is family to me at this point and whenever I hear this song I think of how I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for people like him or amity or my lady. The power of music brings people together and makes you incredibly strong. Thank you guys for the moving music that helped me thru my deepest depressions of suicidal thoughts and helping me meet amazing people through the years from severed ties to this could be heartbreak
so awesome man,you guys should jam and maybe start a band.
@@kurtmartin5669 our schedules are kinda conflicting and not to mention hes in canada and im in the united states. we've always jammed out thru facetime atleast haha
Hahaha you defiantly don’t know me and I’ve never spoken to you in my life haha but good job on the story I guess haha
@@mayhemsforbigboys sorry chief, my buddy’s name is Mitchell. Get over yourself, Aidan. Whoever you are ya weirdo 😂
So awesome to read this. So proud of you and your friend 😍
This band is fucking beautiful. They know exactly how people suffering from depression, anxiety, anger issues and many others feel. I have serious anxiety and anger issues. Amity have helped me through all of it. Although my conditions remain, these guys make it better and let me know im not alone. Bless you guys, bless you
2:32 "There is soap in my eyes!"
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS COMMENT XD
That's what I thought hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
BradTheThird he's saying there is hope in my eyes
...yeah. Thanks for that...
BradTheThird lmao, I hear "soap", but everyone I bring this up to say they hear "salt". Was starting to think it was just me.
I sincerely don't know any other band like these guys, going to listen to them till my dying day.
anchorbrasil . com ? haha :P
Bruno Baruta È Do Brasil cara? haha
Sim. pq? haha
Curte a page do TAA Brasil ai kk , raro encontrar brasileiros que curtam eles !
Secrets are somewhat like them, but not near TAA's level.
I think we have all been this kid at least once in our lives
I've been this kid for most of my life.
I never had TAA giving me a free show in my room :(
wait only once in your life??
@@khimaustin5066 at least 😂 and that one time is every damn day
I’ve actually met this kid and he regrets doing this cause we always pull his leg about it.
My 2 year old daughter love your music as do I .
You have the coolest child ever haha
Sergius Voon
That's creepy as shit... Just saying...
Sergius Voon
Yeh but you could've said it like that...
Dzimka Bujiashvili why?its normal
Dzimka Bujiashvili
Shut the fuck up
where hAVE I BEEN ALL MY LIFE? THIS SONG IS PERFECT
+Christina Skuchenkova Ikr! My friend show me a few months ago, and I haven't been able to stop listening to them.
+I might drown on the weigh down
My friend showed me these guys few weeks ago, I'm not into screamo but after having a proper listen to a few of Amity Afflictions songs I've been hooked awesome lyrics :)
+Christina Skuchenkova I saw them at warped tour this year and I only knew a few songs, such as this one, but they put on a killer show. They ended their set with this song and when he says "let the ocean take me" at the beginning the whole crowd screamed it at the top of their lungs, it was an unforgettable moment.
+Christina Skuchenkova amen to that)
+Christina Skuchenkova Listen to youngbloods :)
These legends! I met the drummer Ryan and one of the guitarists Troy after the show. Such humble people! They actually made me feel like they wanted to talk to me and get to know me. They said that when I travel to Australia I need to stay away from the big cities, that way I get the real Australian experience. I love these legends!
They probably told you that because they're from a regional part of QLD themselves. Plenty to see in Aus depending on what kind of thing interests you.
Melbourne is the greatest city in the world, you should definitely go there
city is a city no matter where you go, definitely get out of the rat race and explore!
In Australia the cities are nothing compared to that of the USA... They will seem like babies to you. You should try both the regional and city experience. Both are great, go for a road trip around Australia if you can.
my best freinds uncle is the bass player for 3 days grace so I get vip access at all concerts and I only go to the ammiti affliction concerts love this band and song so much meaning unlike the rap I used to listen to when I was in my ghetto wannabe rapper phase haha XD
for whomever need to hear this, you are maybe currently alone and feeling depressed but I swear it WILL get better, you just need to keep pushing. And keep in mind that you are loved, even by my, a stranger under this video :)
Legitimately thinking of getting a tattoo that says "let the ocean take me"
Terrance Atchison do it
Terrance Atchison yasss!👌
Terrance Atchison dude me too!
do it!!
i just got a tattoo that says dont lean on me :p
0:39 SHE'S TAKEN ALL OF YOUR GRAVY!!!!!
+theRyedfore Damn i cant unhear it now
+theRyedfore I can't un-hear that now. The song is now ruined ):
+ImNotClifford You say ruined. I say better.
no it actually sounds nothing like that. He says to take on (pause) all of your grieving. the word "she" doesn't sound at all. nice try tho lol.
No @ 2:36 she takes the gravy
This is such a great shower song. You really feel the lyrics when he scream "THERE IS SOAP IN MY EYES!"
Then it turns into a baking song: "AND THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY RAISINS"
TAA is the band that brought me strength and understanding of my depression and anxiety. Full circle and beyond.
this song brings me to tears every time
Same...
+Rachel Hintze my existence brings me to tears
+masoN damn :c
masoN sending you love, remember your just as important to this world, i hope your okay
Rachel Hintze ;((((((((((
Saw them play live the other day.. Best day of my life my far!
You in Australia?
I guess you can say it was... A day to remember...
*****
That wasn't what I was going for but whatever floats your boat
InChellsMind
dont worry, i got what you were saying cx
InChellsMind you just made my day omg hahahahahahahahaha i love you
Almost ten years later and this still hits me hard♥️♥️
This song hits different when you don’t want to live anymore.
It actually does
Let the ocean take me
Push through it my friend.
@Nikola Stanković thank you, with all honesty I have been getting a bit better sometimes I relapse but I still choose to survive you know? So I won’t be doing anything drastic😅 thank you once again
@@jacobbigelow180 I have been pushing thru my friend, been getting better. Thank you!
I love this band. It's helped me through so much. I'm 16 and I'm just totally lost in life. It seems like everyone else is doing fine or is doing better. Life is just monotonous, school, work, games, and repeat. Welp, great song, great band, have a good day.
Same here... This band is really helpful...
Life gets better, i felt the exact same way in high school, it was CRUSHING and emotionally exhausting...keep going; push harder; find faith...it really gets better, i GUARANTEE IT
David Ryder you're right... I hope so
sorround yourself with people...DONT BE AFRAID PLEASE DONT BE AFRAID OF FINDING AND SEEKING OUT GOOD PEOPLE...just because some people hurt and abuse, doesnt mean good people dont exist...quite the opposite; if some people can be so evil to you, that just means some people in the other end of the spectrum can show radical love...much love!
17 Dealing With The Same issue Find What makes you happy i promise it gets better if you don't let the negatives over power your mind
I paid £200 for a ticket to Download this year and when I look at the lineup, in my eyes, I see The Amity Affliction headlining my weekend.
if it weren't for my friends wanting to go Reading instead, I would've 100% bought a Download ticked just to see Amity. The whole line-up looks awesome
200 bucks so well spend.. man crack open a beer for me .. for a brother who cant be there :c
Will do bro :)
pritchy H Two beers dude =D enjoy it
pritchy H might as well make it 3 beers :D
the lyrics in this song are very strong, i almost cried
I feel you on an emotional level..
The video itself is very sad. Poor kid is having all this go on in his head. Depression is the worst.
like if you cry every time xD
I see myself understanding and relating to this song more and more every time I finally pick myself back up from being stepped on ( ex issues..
I'm not gonna lie I almost broke down crying myself.
Apparently the lyrics are about fans who use amity as a way of getting through depression and the strain it puts on the band members. Knowing that makes the lyrics so hard hitting
Not exactly that, the lyrics are about Joel trying to support his friends and be there to help him, but it ends up dragging him down. Eventually just pushing him down,s so it's to a point about the fans but just us much his personal life.
Joshua Solonsch No man, pandahpops was right. Joel put out a letter explaining it: www.theamityaffliction.net/news/my-open-letter
He explains that he wants to help, but when fans send him messages about their own issues, he feels he isn't qualified to help, and along with dealing with his own depression and anxiety, this puts a lot of stress on him, because he doesn't know how to help.
Truth, Joel spoke about it in an interview
like i dont mean to lean on taa but what would i do without them
I got to see them live this week, this was one of the songs they played and my favourite song by them and the first song I ever heard back when I was 12/13. I'm now 22, almost 23 and seeing them live was an amazing feeling after waiting so many years, amity has helped me so much throughout my darkest moments i cried my eyes out when they played this. for some like myself, music is so much more than just music, is healing, comfort and sometimes our only friend. I can't wait to see them again ❤️
I found them when i was 12. they helped me so much. 2 years later now, Im chasing my dreams still listening to them
i turn 29 this week. TAA followed me through my deepest breakdowns, self harm and even a suicide attempt. It's like they are by my side, always around me. I can't describe the feeling seeing them live, Joel and Ahren fought with their own tears while so many people started crying in the crowd.
In my own case, The Amity Affliction are my life savers.
After reading Joel's explanation behind this song. I literally can't listen to it without getting tears in my eyes. It didnt affect me this way until I read his statement. Fuck man. Bro anyone out there who feels like they cant handle life anymore, many of us have been there and may still be there, but like Joel says in this song, there are far too many reasons for you to stay here on this earth stay with me.
There will always be times when it doesnt seem worth it, but if you can push through, you'll find reasons. Do what makes YOU happy in life. Life is worth living. I promise.
Ugh, too many feels man.
I honestly listen to this when I'm deeply depressed or considering.. well y'know. And here I am again.
@@twentyfourtythree1190 never give up. That's all I have to say. Never give up. As someone who deals with numerous mental illnesses, I know how hard it can be. But you know it all ebbs and flows. There tough times and theres good times. Strive to stick it out when you're in a tough time.
Here's some songs for you:
You're not alone- Of Mice and Men
Never giving up- Of Mice and Men
Rise Above It- iPrevail
The Hell I Overcame- Bad Omens
My Disguise- Currents
You'll get well again. You'll smile again. I promise u that.
Crazy. Back then, i've known this song for years without entirely knowing what it means, so i'd just casually vibe to it, and i eventually stopped playing it because i've played the same song so many times, came across other interesting bands like If I Were You, Oceans Ate Alaska, etc. But, nowadays hearing all this stuff about the song and the meaning behind "Don't Lean On Me" just completely changes the way i see the song and I'm really starting to remember why i loved this song the first time i've heard it, not only that, i'm kinda obsessed now lol
This song literally makes me cry as soon as he starts singing. I don't even know why, it just does. It isn't even only a few tears, it's a whole mental breakdown. Maybe that's why I love this song. Feels like a cleanse from all the emotions I've felt.
Joel should be mad at this kid for not acknowledging the band when he went in his room.
That kid is his brother lol
no its not lol
Joel "is" the kid.
Saxon true statment there
Fucking Joel.
I wish they were in my house screaming like that
gay
+Joaquin Espinosa i dont understand do you have some hate towards gay people, i mean either way just cause he wants them their screamin dosent say hes gay he may just really love the music,and even if he was gay whats the bug deal thats his choice
It's not a choice buddy...
lol I'm not gay I meant I wish they could sing their songs in my house. I love Amity!
Jacob Lopez me to
That BMTH poster though ;)
+Kidd and IKTPQ
+reckzn and AA
lol bmth. What a joke
where
+Cliporis at least they are now, god their new album is shit
Amity fucking slaughters them though \m/
Sadness aside but that kids handwriting good af
Ayoo I just noticed 😂
Right?! 😂
That’s me and I didn’t think it was good 😂
Lol
@@mrogers1995 be
9 years later and this still hits like a ton of bricks 🖤
I agree very blown away it’s almost going to be it’s 10 year anniversary!
@maddysplace4157 I'm just thankful I've been around to witness amity from the beginning... 👌🏼🖤
the countless nights i spent walking around a sleepy town blaring amity affliction in my headphones might be the reason im still here today. this band really helped me when i was in a dark place and whenever things get rough, or when i just wanna look how far i've come i'll kick back and listen to pittsburgh and this song because they were the first ones i ever heard.
The teacher never called my name in class😂!
This song able to speak on a level most people aren't willing to reach. Keep up the good work Amity.
10 years of this excellent album 🖤
To anyone who might read this,
So my name's Thien, and while we might not know each other, that doesn't exactly matter because I just wanted to let you know you're truly beautiful, amazing and incredibly loved! If you're going through a rough patch in life, please keep your head up and keep going because you're gonna be alright!! Have a lovely day and don't forget to sm:)e!
ThienTunes So nice. >.
ThienTunes Many thanks
Arigato!!!
ThienTunes you rock dude
Aaron Hoops Just hoping to make a change (: Have a good one
I like how he has a BMTH poster in his room
He also has an Amity Affliction one and an I Killed The Prom Queen one
P_Sherman Actually he has at least 2 TAA posters. There's one at 0:42 and there's one from AP magazine
And letlive and asking alexandria
iSekC Fan I know I have the same one
He also has The amity affliction in his room playing awesome music. this guy knows.
'THERE IS SOAP IN MY EYES'
It’s hard when you feel no one is listening. I had the same exact thing happen when I was 16 and they said why? You have this, that, and the other… I just keep pushing on my own. Now I’m 28 and taking my mental health in my own hands. It’s hard every single day but your future is up to you. Things will get in your way, just find whatever light you can and keep pushing forward. ❤
I have never found a band that could make me understand as much as these guys do. This song in particular helped me realize that no band was going to come and save me, that no song was going to come and fix all of my problems, that I shouldn't depend on anyone else but myself to find happiness. The Amity Affliction gave me inspiration to save myself, and to stop letting myself be depressed, to stop leaning on others because of problems that I have. We all have problems, and no one can fix those for you.
It's sad how many people can relate to this song and how many people contemplate and even resort to suicide. No one should feel so helpless and invisible by the ones that are supposed to love them the most that they think of that. Then again, not all of us can come from loving families who automatically give them attention and notice them.

IT'S OVER 9000!
Let the ocean take me, oh
You've gotta know, kid, that it ain't easy
To take on all of your grieving
Yeah, you've gotta believe me, oh
Well, don't lean on me 'cause I am falling, please don't fall with me
I really need you here, yeah, I need you, so don't leave
And don't count on me 'cause I am drowning, please don't drown with me
Just hold me in your heart, let the ocean take me
Let the ocean take me
And you think I don't read every message that you send?
You think I turn a blind eye? You think I'm just like them?
It breaks my heart, all these stories; brings me to tears, all this grief
And I feel so fucking helpless when I can't be your relief, oh
Well, don't lean on me 'cause I am falling, please don't fall with me
I really need you here, yeah, I need you, so don't leave
And don't count on me 'cause I am drowning, please don't drown with me
Just hold me in your heart, let the ocean take me
There is hope in my eyes, there is hope in these words
And there are far too many reasons for you to stay here on this earth
Stay with me
Well, don't lean on me 'cause I am falling, please don't fall with me
I really need you here, yeah, I need you, so don't leave
And don't count on me 'cause I am drowning, please don't drown with me
Just hold me in your heart, let the ocean take me
Yeah, let the ocean take me
Yeah, let the ocean take me
9 years later and still one of their best pieces. Tells such a great story. As a father this resonates so much more with me now than it did 9 years ago.
"There is soap, In my eyes
There is soap, in these words"
😂😂
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!?
took me ages to realise what the actual lyrics were. haha but soap sounds better :P
This can not be unseen... I now hear it is as that...
fuckin ruiner man lol
So happy i wasn't the only one who heard this!
I've been struggling with my mental health for years and now my little sister is going through some really tough times two, suffering from depression, anxiety and ptsd... I never thought she could feel like I do. I've never thought she would know this pain. I don't want that for her. She deserves so much better. This song is exactly how I feel. I feel helpless, I don't know what to do anymore.
Hang in there your not alone
You guys are on another level to any other band. You can really see the truth coming out of the vocals and the tune is so freaking good. By far the best band out there
This song has saved my life soooooo many times! Fell in love with it the first time I heard it. As a 36 year old straight Male, i would do anything to give Joel and Arhen a hug! Thank you amity, you have no idea!
Am I the only one who seen the I killed the prom queen poster and find that really cool? xD
Yay!!
Challen Dablaing I found it cool too, even when i dont really into that band XD
Aronio Añez haha same
Challen Dablaing i thought the bmth poster was friggin epic
ThatOneBandObsessedGirl letlive. as well
I LOVE THIS BAND SO MUCH
The intros to Don't Lean On Me and The Weigh Down are fantastic
Anytime life has me down this song saves me over and over
Same
In the past 2 weeks I've listened to this song every time I get down and it gives me hope to move on and keep my head up even when I want to curl up and accept defeat. Such a great meaning and I really respect you guys, not only for reaching out to your fans about how they feel, but for also expressing your fight with depression and the struggles you face even though you are apart of a successful band. You'll forever be held in my heart guys and I'll never let you down.
Captain Siin you should listen to give it all
This song has push through my depression. I sing it when I get days that lost the will to life.
Why would you release this on the same day as Navy Blue by The Story So Far. Now I'm addicted as fuck to both. The struggle is so real.
And Would You Still Be There from om&m! Three good ones on one day. :-)
you too huh? :)
alyssea king lol would you still be there by om&m came out like 4 months ago ahahhahahahahaahahah spastic
xPhizzeh I think he meant the music video lol
I was thinking that, and then Navy Blue turned out to be shit. :(
I just watch this video I'm 39 years old and I can relate to this guy so it's been happening a long time where was this kind of music at when I was a kid
My best friend showed me this band and I'm in love. This is the song we dedicate each other and I know I couldn't live without her. Music brings people together,music brought me to her and I'm grateful for music and her in my life.
Still one of the best metalcore songs ever written
Lost my bestfriend two weekends ago and these songs have a whole different feeling, love you bro you will always be here with me , you can count on me , rest up 🙏🏼
Stay strong bro, I hope it gets better for you, I know how loss feels...
Still blastin’ in 23’ when the depression hits harder than usual and it’s getting harder to be here TAA will always hold a special place in my heart💛
Keep fighting the good fight brother you’re worth it ❤️
Best band on Roadrunner Records right here!
While I like TAA, you must realize that both Rush (HOF) and Dream Theater are signed with Roadrunner. Both are better than TAA, but TAA has potential.
This band honestly helps know how I feel. I always think what I’m going through doesn’t matter and that it’s not important and that I’m being over dramatic, and then I hear this and read everyone’s story in the comments and it’s a moment of clarity that lets me know what I feel is real and that I need to fight through it.
this song is perfect🎶👌
Definitely 🍻
This song makes me feel grateful for being alive listening to it
I’m great full that this song makes you feel that way!
I love Joel's lyrics. They are always so powerful and send a personal message! I love these guys and can't wait to see them live! I am obsessed with this entire album and think its the best one yet!
I've been addicted to this song for about a week or so ... I'm not even complaining
I love how heavy this is...
This has been on straight repeat
First song I heard from them and instantly fell in love.
Welcome to the club ❤
Me too!
WHO CARES WHAT GENRE OF MUSIC IT IS, IF YOU LIKE IT, LISTEN TO IT. ALL YOU PEOPLE ARE SO GENRE SPECIFIC
2:32 me when i get a drop of shampoo in my eyes
haha
+Allen Carmack i fuckin died when i heard that after you pointed it out
Dakota Stevens lol
+Allen Carmack or shoot water into your eye while at a drinking fountain
Warrior Tha Witt true
This song is so depressing yet beautiful at the same time.
They just keep getting better :')
i wouldn't be that sad if they were playing music in my room.. 😂
right that kid is lucky
Victoria Ann same
Haha, that's actually MY room! This whole clip was filmed in my house :)
linotheundead rly? O,o oh jeez
I would love to get home from school and see Them playing a concert in my room, That kid is lucky.
Actually I was lucky. That's MY room =)
To many memory's from this album 💔
I remember that listening to this song helped me a lot in my depression stage, caused by breaking up with my ex-girlfriend, but more than 2 years have passed and I hear it again, already recovered from everything. its beautiful!
Fax dude what plus I do t really understand the video that well
@@ImDemon-do8lu the video deals with a personal struggle between whether to commit suicide or not, it is something internal since you will realize, everything is in the head of the protagonist.
2:31 - "THERE IS SOAP, IN MY EYES"
2:37 THERE IS SOAP THIS PLACE!!!!!!
@@TotallyNotSomeTerrarianBoi but i heared "there is soap in this world"
Worst part is, thats how i singed the lyrics until now...
And now that is all I can hear
Hahaha my brother said the same and it sounds like that also!
This speaks volumes... Especially when u Maxx out your livingroom sound system ✌🏻 ✌🏻 😎 😎 😎
Maxin out the headset with an equalizer on. Sounds amazeeeeeee
That's hard to touch the heart of so many people, but they manage to do it so perfectly, that's incredible
saw these guys live for first time,what an amazing band,and live woooow!!,sounded awesome
2019 and still relate to this song so much.
Such an amazing song
Fucking legends.
Hellz yeah
yesss
Fffffffuck yes!!!!
This song hits home for me because I do my hardest to help any and everyone I can. I can't say no to people and I can't just let their problems go unheard of unsolved. It takes a hard mental toll on me. I still can't bring myself to tell them no. It's really really really hard to be as empathetic as I am. So this song is beautiful. Sometimes I wish I cared a little less. ♥️
I think I like pittsburgh a tad more just because of the lyrics making it feel more confronting and relating to it, but this song is fukin amazing!!!!
I like both equally but you're right. The lyrics in Pittsburgh are more relatable definitely. However, Don't lean on me can be just as relatable. I know it's about Joel trying to be a solid foundation for every broken heart and it takes a toll on him. There are many others who try to be that positive solid foundation for their friends' broken hearts. I know I am that one guy a lot of friends lean on for advice and comfort, and it does take a toll. We get exhausted. Pittsburgh is definitely easier for others to relate to since a lot of us go through depression. Don't Lean On Me is more personal and a lot less people will probably relate to it, however it hits home hard for some of us.
I think we should focus on the feeling TAA just try to transmit with their music and lyrics. We just need to hear their songs, think about nothing else, and try to be a bit melomaniacs =)
3LimbedHero im that guy to bro. people seem to gravitate towards me. I'll meet someone at the bar and they are telling me their life story over a beer and a cigarette. Like wow. And like Joel I empathize on a abnormally deep level.
Weather that's a blessing or a curse I haven't figured out yet
Why am I only hearing this now!?!
WHAT!!! also listin to toxicity from system of a down if your looking for an awsome song
Literally SAME!!
Bit late to the party bro.
RJpalapa you're a bit late but dont worry. This songs is 5 years ago and Im not dead yet. This can save you too! Fan of TAA since LTOTM era.
Never too late, man
I feel like the kid in the music video. I feel ignored by everyone close to me and every now and again I feel like I'm hopeless and lost. But in the end its just all in my head, I forget that everyone around me supports me and is trying to help me deal with my depression and anxiety even tho they might not understand what it is or how I came to develop it
So beautiful.
There are those of us who are ignored, abandoned, alone. Remember, we are the ones God has chosen to separate to be with Him! WE ARE NEVER ALONE!
God, he's never going to get any work done with a band playing behind him!
This music video is so beautiful it made me cry, I love you Amity
this song is old but i find myself coming back here more and more when im upset, it'll always hold a special place in my heart. along with ''and the snakes start to sing'' SHIT HIT DIFFERENT THOUGH
This album is going to be huge. Holy fuck...
Impericon brought me here. Where have I been why haven't I checked this band out before? Holy shit. This is amazing. I can feel the emotion so much.
