I lost my son in 2017 to suicide and right as we pulled up to the the funeral home to collect his ashes this song came on the radio I never heard it before and it spoke volumes to me and helped me mourn and cope as I was numb and unable up to that point
I’m glad this song helps bring you comfort. Not sure how much of Alter Bridge’s catalog you know but In Loving Memory off their 1st album does the same for me. I’m very sorry for your loss. God Bless!
May all who have been broken never feel the same suffering more than once. It hurts, but remember that all things must come to the end. At the end of winter must come spring, and the thunderstorms will never last forever. Hang in there, my comrades. Let the whispering winds guide you to happiness.
This song is absolutely powerful and beautifully dark. Myles Kennedy’s vocals conveys the emotion of this song perfectly. You don’t listen to this song. You feel this song.
The willow it weeps today A breeze from the distance is calling your name Unfurl your black wings and wait Across the horizon it's coming to sweep you away It's coming to sweep you away Let the wind carry you home Blackbird fly away May you never be broken again The fragile cannot endure The wrecked and the jaded a place so impure The static of this cruel world Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day Long before they've seen their day Let the wind carry you home Blackbird fly away May you never be broken again Beyond the suffering you've known I hope you find your way May you never be broken again Ascend may you find no resistance Know that you made such a difference All you leave behind will live to the end The cycle of suffering goes on But memories of you stay strong Someday I too will fly and find you again Let the wind carry you home Blackbird fly away May you never be broken again Beyond the suffering you've known I hope you find your way May you never be broken again May you never be broken again
a single song worths way bigger than an entire career we hear these days..........touches my heart at its deepest bottoms......such an emotional masterpiece.................
Tharusha Munasinghe Same dude. This song describes me so well. I’ve been bullied all my life and I’m trying to achieve my music career goals, so that I may unfurl my black wings and wait
This song is the epitome of power, grace and depth possible with a 4 piece rock band. Possibly the greatest song ever written. Also the strength of playing by Flip and Brian are top shelf here and hold this hold crazy emotional rollercoaster together. Cheers to the rhythm section! They don't get enough credit and they're half of Alter Bridge.
I don't see how they can give a thumbs down to this song. Such an emotional and powerful song. I get chills everytime I hear it. Reminds me of my mother that died in 2016. I miss you and one day I too shall fly and find you again
A friend recommended I listen to this and I usually don't listen to hard rock. This was beyond words amazing. It wasn't just the lyrics being amazing, which they are, but the actual music made me feel. I've listened to a lot of songs to help me grieve and when it hurts the most I actually feel a pressure in my gut but no song has matched the feeling before like this one. I generally associate hard rock with a lot of energy and grieving as being passive but that just made me realize that aching pressure I feel is the energy. But slower more mellow songs aren't able to release it the way this would. Honestly I've grieved so hard I scream before but the music in this does the screaming for the soul. That's like the best way I can describe it. And at the end the way it winds down reminded me of when I was little and I'd be done crying and my Mom would just hold me. It was slower and deeper and soothing. Dude that was an experience. Not just a song. I am thoroughly and genuinely impressed. Like whoa! I am training to be a recreational therapist and want to do music therapy so I wanted to broaden my tastes. Thank you to the band. This is amazing.
I dedicate this song to my recently deceased older brother: this was his favorite bamd and his favorite song to play on his guitar. Each time I listen to this song i think about him. And the lyrics in the song that go: "the cycle of suffering goes on. But memories of u stay strong. Someday I too will fly and find you again" hit home to me
I miss you sis. It’s been four months since you left the world. Let the wind carry you home, blackbird fly away, may you never be broken again. Beyond the suffering you’ve known, I hope you find your way. May you never be broken again.
Myles Kennedy has THE voice. mark tremonti is still brilliant. I found alter bridge by accident and have become addicted. I have been going thru some bad shit n this band is getting me thru it
My dad sent this song to me, it has slipped my mind over the years. But I just lost my best friend to domestic violence on monday and this song was just what I needed... she left behind her 2 year old boy and it was less than a week to her 23rd birthday which is today... Please get help if you're in a scary situation... I wish I could have helped her so she wasn't taken from this world I hope you find your way home Amanda Black(Bird) 💜💜💜💜😭😭😭😭
I was in my 20’s when this came out. How have I never heard this song? I thought the heavy metal sound of the 80’s and 90’s left quietly. I had no idea there was such a capstone. 🤯 A perfect encapsulation of the genre before Breaking Benjamin moved the sound into the new era. Beautiful.
I have no words to describe how much I love this song. This is an absolute masterpiece and the guitar solo is literally out of the world. Thank you Alter Bridge for such a beautiful composition. Resplendent! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The most beautiful song I've ever heard. It's hard to not cry though, very powerful stuff. Not sure why I never heard this song before... I can't help but think of my mom who died 3 years ago. I miss you my friend, 1 day I too will fly and find you again

This vid popped up in suggestions. I have heard the name alter bridge and I thought I had heard some of their songs on the radio... Sooo.. F'it !! .. clicks on video. J A W Floor!................... 8 minutes later . No way I've heard these guys before. Def not the kind of band you hear and forget about it. What an amazing song.
U've never heard of Alter Bridge before?...U've never heard of WWE either?...cuz Edge's theme is Metalingus by Alter bridge :D and edge's theme is by far the coolest:P well..anyway it's good that u found Alter bridge in the end:P
To me, this masterpiece is right up there with Stairway to Heaven! Luv Watch over you too. Myles......your fab vocals and emotional storytelling performance. Ughhhhh....just sensational
This song hits me hard emotionally and I realise how hard it must be to perform while you’ve lost so many friends in the music industry.. stay strong and know we appreciate all the work you do to create such masterpieces..
I felt that! The emotions conveyed so soft & gentle along side the heavy guitar to me shows great depth & understanding of the harsh reality of being broken. Imo an emotional musical masterpiece. 🎶
May your soul Rest In Peace Grandpa. I wished he could say few last words before he took his last breathe, i couldn't even tell him that one day i'll make him proud. 💔💔💔
Stormy I KNOW RIGHT!! This song is EPIC! I'm dumbfounded by the talent displayed here and I was crying my eyes out thinking about my dad who passed last year while listening to it! OMG!! I haven't been this deeply touched by a song ever! The power and beauty of his voice, the bawling and shredding rawness of the guitar, the flawless lyrics, Jesus, one of the best songs I've ever heard and this is coming from someone who listens to almost everything, as long as there's talent involved and from someone who has done so for 25+ years! OH MY GAWD WHAT TALENT!!
This song is dedicated to my best friend who died 2 days ago. Fuck you covid. He was only in his 30s and changed everyone’s life that he touched. I miss you Adam. Rest In Peace
This Song Deeply Effected me. I Recently Lost my Nephew from a Disease that Plagued his body he Suffered Physically and Emotionally for years. My Son Who is also Afflicted with the same Illness Expressed to me the Words to this song Reflects Exactly how he felt about the Loss of his Cousin. He won’t have to Suffer Anymore he’s Free. How Poignant. Rip Glenn ❤️
Give your life over to Jesus! You ll never be lonely again! I ll pray for you! Iv been where you are- I cried out to Christ- iv never regretted it. May his peace be with you always!
I lost my son in 2017 to suicide and right as we pulled up to the the funeral home to collect his ashes this song came on the radio I never heard it before and it spoke volumes to me and helped me mourn and cope as I was numb and unable up to that point
Sorry to hear that may his soul RIP
Sorry for your lost men i too lost someone close to me so i understand your pain but it gets better.
I’m glad this song helps bring you comfort. Not sure how much of Alter Bridge’s catalog you know but In Loving Memory off their 1st album does the same for me. I’m very sorry for your loss. God Bless!
Be strong bro...
So very sorry for your loss. May he find the peace now that he deserves. Much love.

The willow it weeps today
A breeze from the distance is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait
Across the horizon it's coming to sweep you away
It's coming to sweep you away
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
The fragile cannot endure
The wrecked and the jaded a place so impure
The static of this cruel world
Cause some birds to fly long before they've seen their day
Long before they've seen their day
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
Ascend may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
All you leave behind will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on
But memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly and find you again
Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you've known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
May you never be broken again
It's a vip-place in heaven for people like you.
Literally in tears every time I hear this song! Reminds me of the closest ones I’ve lost and the beautiful sound of this song, voice and all! 🤍
Totally agree. Reminds me of my brother who died in a car accident when I was 10 (he had just turned 13)
To friends who left far too early. This is for you, brothers.

I'm 68 and saw alter bridge for the first time last month, now I'm a big fan, great music
Not only do the lyrics tell a story and show emotions but the guitar and all the rest of the instruments do too
Myles Kennedy has THE voice. mark tremonti is still brilliant. I found alter bridge by accident and have become addicted. I have been going thru some bad shit n this band is getting me thru it
I truly hope you're in a better place today. And yes, Myles & Mark are brilliant.
I found Alter Bridge when I first heard Edge's theme song
Keep your head up big man!! Love you bro!
Shinedown has helped me thru stuff too
My dad sent this song to me, it has slipped my mind over the years. But I just lost my best friend to domestic violence on monday and this song was just what I needed... she left behind her 2 year old boy and it was less than a week to her 23rd birthday which is today...

From Can to Can’t to Blackbird.
Holy shit this drive home on Christmas Eve 2019 has been the best I’ve ever had.
