Evans Blue has been able to comfort me throughout my life. When I was younger in my teens and early 20's Kevin's voice helped me through bad relationships, because Kevin sang mostly about heart-break. Me and my friend from the Army would sing these songs on our deployments to Iraq hoping to get back to our significant others, wishing we were back in the states. Those women left us for other men, ones that didn't leave for a year every other year. Well I am 30 now, and my friend is dead now due to the war. I don't really care about the heartbreak from a woman anymore. But I miss my friend and I struggle with all this crap left over from that stupid war. Dan Chandler sings about struggle in real life, and Evan's Blue realistic lyrics really help me struggle with the weight on my shoulders. hooah
Back in 2007, when I first heard this song, I scratched my CD hearing it over and over again. Now in 2016, I feel like I am going to scratch this you tube video. Best song from this amazing album!
To me personally. And I think the lyrics reflect it as well. The song is about a guy who is with an amazing woman that he can't seem to bring himself to fully love. He's telling himself he needs to start to actually love her because she's worth it. She wants to be with him so she puts up with his distant attitude. But he wonders exactly how long before she changes her mind about him and moves on to someone more deserving of her.
I feel its about a guy who loved a girl so much... they argued a lot... he fought for her so much (he feels it was pathethic to be that way) and she didn't really care enough. He left heartbroken after she went off with someone else. She got what she wanted. She realized she made a mistake in leaving him, she begs him. He has so much to say, but he just says "no" to the relationship. He says if it will change her life if he changes his mind about it. He isn't going to. He can only think that she should love that other guy so much she will move on from him. He's done.
@@VeryCloverd I agree with this, but I think she hurt him so bad that he thought about suicide. " Hang a noose for my new sinner " this song hits alot of diffrent feelings.
I think you are all wrong. Its about a girl who is not really worth his time but he loves for all her flaws and (but not seeing those flaws) she could care less about his affection. So now he tells the next man in line he needs to be the one to give her the love he thinks she deserves. While standing aside and trying to persuade himself that he should be the one that she loves. No matter how wrong he knows all of that is.
So many fantastic songs, I dont know which one Im more attached to, stumbled across this great artist, and Im still tumbling, I think Im particularly drawn to, Erase my Scars, its a very profound song, its a shame, what happened to the nephew, still hes in good hands now, I hope Evans Blue continues to make beautiful and meaningful music, major props!
been five years since I last heard this song. and the feeling jus rushed back into my body, made me scream out the top of my lungs every word. good thing I don't have any roommates 😄
+Michael Gonzales this song brings me back about that far as well, first time listening to it in years and only now am i beginning to find those memories i once had. Haha this is my motivation for finishing finals week.
This song reminds me of my cousin so much. I miss her so much. This song never fails to bring tears and goosebumps. I can remember when she showed me this song, it felt just like yesterday. I can never seem to forget the expression on her face when she sang along at the "This world lives just fine without us" part. I don't know if she felt that way but God how it's untrue. I miss you so much. I think about you everyday. I miss spending almost everyday together. This song is just so strong and emotional. "For how long?" never fails to send chills down my spine. I miss you. I love you.
It's kinda cool seeing how y'all keep coming back here and jamming to this song lol whether experience or luck brought you here, I'm glad you like this song too years after its release :)
This song is so awesome and so true about me and my "ex" I just can't believe it. And now everybody wants her but I shouldn't even bother Cause you made me so complete dear But you left me so alone here Hang a noose for my new sinner Somewhere everyone can see it ...I know you're risking failure AWESOME.
I love this song and I wish I could find a more accurate bass tab for this song. I've found a couple but they seem to be missing parts or some parts are played kinda funny.
Seems to be written from the perspective of someone who's lost someone they love that they view as amazing. Many verses are the singer telling whoever's with her now that they better do a better job of loving her than he did, otherwise she'll break their heart like they broke his.
OMG the only reason why i came across this song is bcos of Ben Burnley but it has become to b one of my favorites!!! :) i had never heard of this band b4 its awesome tho!!
"Go run for cover!! You better fucking love her!!" Best part =] I heard their song "Over" on the radio and loved it, then I found this song and now its one of my new favorite songs and bands now!
I think it really is 'how to love you' instead of 'can I love you'. I heard an accoustic session of this song, and it was way clearer.Good song, anyway. There aren't words enough to describe how good Evans Blue is.♥
this was the song that my girl played for me when it got to this point, we loved each other but we did not say it at first. She played this and it just clicked she holds my heart i love her so much.
Just reminds me of my ex..it makes me cry every night because we were so close. I would do anything to get her back. She has a new bf and he better love her
My interpretation: he’s got a good girl and a nasty drug addiction. He wants to love her. He’s just fucked up. She’s loves him too but, she’s starting to lose her mind and her innocence.

Rip to your friend. Listen in his memory and stay strong brotha
Jason Aguilar I hope you are doing ok
Sorry man.
Jason, you sound like a great man, and you’re friend sounds just as great, and thank you for your service
Hope you are getting through it dude, couldnt imagine what you have been through. I hope you are still jamming these songs!
Back in 2007, when I first heard this song, I scratched my CD hearing it over and over again. Now in 2016, I feel like I am going to scratch this you tube video. Best song from this amazing album!
Yosshy M My favorite is eclipsed
Dark the Follows
I went to high school with the lead singer and bass player. Wicked tunes, each and every one. Keep it coming guys!!!
Awesome
Wow that’s so cool! I’m from dfw area and I remember them coming on our local radio station. I still love them

This band needs friends like you
I was in high school when this band was blowing up and everytime I hear any song of theirs I freak out cause memories just rush back! Great music.
2008 was a wild year... Brings me back
This song still gives me goose bumps!
I love that... when a song is so good. I get the chills down the back of my spine and it shoots all over my body. This song definitely does that!
I agree its such an amazing song 👌with so much emotion
"For how long" that shit cuts right through my soul.
Word
So does the song cold
indeed
His voice is just so incredible. It's got so much power and range!

rediscovering music i used to love. now i can't stop playing this and "The Dark That Follows" over and over.
anyone who's been through a gut renching heart break can identify with this song.
been five years since I last heard this song. and the feeling jus rushed back into my body, made me scream out the top of my lungs every word. good thing I don't have any roommates 😄
+Michael Gonzales this song brings me back about that far as well, first time listening to it in years and only now am i beginning to find those memories i once had. Haha this is my motivation for finishing finals week.
I know...my foster sister...my best friend committed suicide last June..we would always listen to them...she would sing this song and it was beautiful
Sorry for your loss Michelle.
+Michael Gonzales Haha, did the same thing, except that I have roommates. But I don't care!
Come back and listen to it again.
I’ve been looking for this song for 12 years glad I found it!
That bass riff at 2:24 is epic, tying the song together and out of place at the same time! My favorite part!
Wow its been 10 yrs since i've heard this, cold chills, heart pumping i love it.
I loved these guys for years I can't tell you what your music has done for me 😘😘
Tastes likcandy have you listened to Parabelle? Kevin sings for them now.
This song takes me back to teeny angsty years. And feeling soothed by every part of this song. Severely underrated band, I loved them so much.
What kick ass lyrics and song !!!!
Very powerful and moving song!
Was my wife's favorite song, I lost her on July 20th 2020.......i play it at least once a day 😞
Sooo sorry for your loss mike I know your wife would be happy your listening to this song
I don't know who you are Derek Jones but thank you for the comment
It's a struggle every day my friend
@@mikehenninger7597 I hear you there its tuff and hard at the same time
I grew up listening to this.
Now I'm in love with Parabelle :3
Kevin is so amazing.
first time hearing this. I love it.
Same here
You're late to the party young man. They're a great band.

Kinda weird bro
i wonder why they dont add this album to their spotify profile srsly , this is the best album
Probably because they changed lead vocalists
I found this song on spotify...yoj made a difference!
@@stephenashes5665 same found this in spotify
I like this singer better 🤷♂️
@@cm8298 which the old singer was much better in my opinion
Back when this band was good. All the talent left with their original singer.
It's kinda cool seeing how y'all keep coming back here and jamming to this song lol whether experience or luck brought you here, I'm glad you like this song too years after its release :)
im so pathetic. you made me finally see it.
So fucking relatable right now.
@@riotepidemic6681 You two will be okay.
Killision Blasto can confirm I’m doing better than ever haha can’t believe I commented that made me cringe a little
Glad to hear it!
😅😅
5 years later, and this is still my favorite song.
This song is so fucking amazing.
still my favorite song, but this whole album is perfect. gj guys.
lyrics are so vivid.
God I’m so glad I rediscovered this gem
man i love this song so much now. before i use to like quote but reading the lyrics made me have a change of heart. i can really relate to the song
after all these years and it's still so fucking perfect
This song is so awesome and so true about me and my "ex" I just can't believe it.
And now everybody wants her
but I shouldn't even bother
Cause you made me so complete dear
But you left me so alone here
Hang a noose for my new sinner
Somewhere everyone can see it
...I know you're risking failure
AWESOME.
This song replaces the alcohol. It replaces the drugs and for a few minutes it soothes what hurts
It does take them pain away for just a few minutes
love the song but I love her more and it dont take the pain away like the drugs do
Mandy H axrxzsgeusbhxijsgsjowbmdmz
drugs and alcohol only make the pain worse
Mandy H edgy

Hi
That last bit. I’m so pathetic you made me finally see it.
oh i miss the old singer.... SO EVANS BLUE
I love this song and I wish I could find a more accurate bass tab for this song. I've found a couple but they seem to be missing parts or some parts are played kinda funny.
Can someone please explain to me the meaning of this song? I love it so much i wanna understand the message of the song as clearly as possible.
Seems to be written from the perspective of someone who's lost someone they love that they view as amazing. Many verses are the singer telling whoever's with her now that they better do a better job of loving her than he did, otherwise she'll break their heart like they broke his.
He sent me this while i was asleep... I miss him :,-(
***** Definitely. Thank you *Namaste* xoxoxoxox
Such a good song I have been a big fan of theirs since I can hardly remember
Still here 2018
OH yeah!! HD lyrics!! I will never go back to SD lyrics after this~ Thanks!
Listened to this song like 10 times in a row!
omfg 2008...i miss those times so much ;(
Still one of my all time favorite songs
I absolutely love Evans blue
The lead is my bro. So good to see theve got a little credit thus far. Going on tour Oct15. :-) cant wait!
Pure Poetry
The LittleRock Clydesdale Nobody can compare with Kevin Matisyn's lyrics
OMG the only reason why i came across this song is bcos of Ben Burnley but it has become to b one of my favorites!!! :) i had never heard of this band b4 its awesome tho!!
"Go run for cover!! You better fucking love her!!"
Best part =]
I heard their song "Over" on the radio and loved it, then I found this song and now its one of my new favorite songs and bands now!
His voice is amazing.
Amazing voice
Can't believe this song isn't on Itunes! Its such an awesome song!
Quickly becoming my favorite new band (new to me anyway). Thanks.
I think it really is 'how to love you' instead of 'can I love you'. I heard an accoustic session of this song, and it was way clearer.Good song, anyway. There aren't words enough to describe how good Evans Blue is.♥
god this song and erase my scars...never get old
This song touches my soul.
The intro alone is an eargasm.
this song is melodic. ^.^
Agreed
perchance the most melodic on the non-album,,no one looks as gewd,maybe? dunno but going there next
this is my favorite song from them!!
wow... i almost cried listening to this. my friend told me to watch it
his voice remind me of rise againts' singer (for the once who know that band)
Yeah I bit
+Aaron Meacham bro noone compares to maynard!
you had comment on blue October song "say it " saying "say it " by Evan blue was better. now i ve been stuck listening to this band
+Aaron Meacham I hear the rise against singer, but not Maynard James Keenan.
I agree, however I do hear a Lil bit of a Maynard influence. not saying he's the exact same, so calm your tits.
this was the song that my girl played for me when it got to this point, we loved each other but we did not say it at first. She played this and it just clicked she holds my heart i love her so much.
How is that going now?
All these women wanting to tear men down. Where's my Queen to lift this heavy crown???
If you listen closely, it's about a stalker.
This is very good music, it takes me back to my college years. Thank you for everything! ❤😢
2:58 perfect.
how can't you just love this song!
Awesome Song! i Love it!
yes the alcohol yes the pain
First comment of 2020 :) happy new year y'all. Great song
This is a really good song! I love it!
this the song that my girl played for me when it was getting so real and this will be our song forever
Great song !
Just reminds me of my ex..it makes me cry every night because we were so close. I would do anything to get her back. She has a new bf and he better love her
@VaniTySnipesFTW This is a pretty badass song. I've definitely listened to this on repeat a few times as well.
Not this song but another has done it for me... I was alone in a hotel... my angel saved me from myself.
The intro to this song sounds almost identical to the theme song played in the beginning of "The Warriors" before they head onto the subway.
Best fucking band ever... huge fan 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤙🏼
Their best written song but its my favorite song by Evans blue besides painted & my damsel .
Why isn't there a single good quality version of this song on youtube? Ugh is evans blue seriously this underrated???
My interpretation: he’s got a good girl and a nasty drug addiction. He wants to love her. He’s just fucked up.
She’s loves him too but, she’s starting to lose her mind and her innocence.
Great song.
lol I'm not sure about his personality, but he's another one of my favorite vocalists.
2019?
:'( this song makes me cry
Amazing song. Oxox
Love this song
best song by evans blue
