    This band has touched my soul on more than just an emotional level but, physically. I have changed so much since finding this band not only because of their inspirational lyrics but, their stage presence. I swear, when they play every person listening becomes as one. It is so miraculous to me. Many long nights spent listening to them.. Helping me get through hardships and the understanding of pain and love all at once. Teaching me that life is beautiful and what is in it as well. They have helped me step back from my mischievous set of mind and not take for granted what is right in front of me... I could not thank them more for that. No band has ever inspired me like this one has.

    Something that inspires me most about them is that they're not worried about headbanging and jumping around. They capture a beautiful melodic hardcore sound and are focused on capturing that by playing their instruments very well. There's nothing wrong with stage antics like headbanging, but their music creates an atmosphere that would be ruined if while watching them they crouched down and headbanged while playing open D. It's nice seeing their music reflected with their talent and focus.

    i listen to this every single morning. not only because its a great song. but because it gives me strength. strength to be positive in a negative world. I'm able to have hope, that i can better myself, that the world can see light in the darkness. only love and respect can fix this. its easy to be negative in a negative world. but to be positive takes strength and perseverance. so, I DARE YOU ALL TO BE POSITIVE

    I dont care what beliefs you may have, this is truly amazing music. You can slander them all you want for having religious themes, it doesnt erase the fact that they're good.

    "I'm trying my best, to be a better man. Despite all my fears, I really am. I write these these things to remind myself, that admist this darkness, there still remains; light, hope, and the perfect plan. For the first time in my life I am writing for the sake writing, living for the sake living, loving for the sake of loving. And I'll live. So, you can call this sort of life, a hopeless endeavor. That this tiny vessel could ever endure such violent weather." Too beautiful...

  • @TebbyTebZz
    @TebbyTebZz 11 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I love this song! Some words that my sister always tells me is "It's not the Religion, but the Relationship towards God" but I try being a loyal Christian like this says "I'm trying my best, to be a better man" bcuz ever since I became one, my life changed and became better than ever! Love you Being as an Ocean! Love you God! Amen.

    As I pen these things
    It might literally be all I have
    Ink on paper
    Does any of this matter?
    Then I’m reminded of what I’ve seen
    The places I love and the people I’ve been
    Only Love could have brought me to this place
    Holding in me a joyful heart while spit covers my face
    I’ve come to forgive those who’ve wronged me
    Knowing that they’ve helped make me into exactly who You intended me to be
    I’m trying my best to be a better man
    Despite all my fears, I really am
    I write these things to remind myself
    That amidst this darkness, there still remains
    Light, Hope, and a perfect plan
    For the first time in my life
    I am writing for the sake of writing
    Living for the sake of living
    Loving for the sake of loving
    And I’ll live
    So you can call this sort of life a hopeless endeavor
    That this tiny vessel could ever endure such violent weather
    Call it pointless
    I’ll continue to carry out Grace none the less
    I will scream it till my face is blue
    There is a point to all of this and its always been You

    Joel is the best human being ever. He's from where I live, and I saw him and his wife at a grocery store. I walked up and was like flipping out and I told him thank you for his music and inspiring me and all he said was "No thank you!" And gave me the biggest hug no hesitation.
