“Your father’s dead, he passed in his sleep” “and I woke to the sounds of her crying” will get me every time. ❤
As a kid I loved this song without truly hearing those words. Now it pushes the song to such great meaning.
My dad play this band every time he would pick me up for visitation and now I don’t see him anymore but I’m glad he showed me this band I love you dad
Forgot how these songs go from 0-100000000000000
Good lord this is raw.
How this song relates to the story of Armory Wars:
I think Jesse is either standing in a doorway or laying in a cot, looking at Claudio sitting down chronicling in a journal and he's smiling. He knows things will get rough for him but he enjoys the glimpse of that innocent boy that his nephew once was. He thinks to himself "Slowly the pen touches paper in the guidance of words that you write. Memories roll in of the things you once did and who you shared them with. Is somebody thinking of HIM?"
He then explains everything and acknowledges how hard it is to explain "Words don't come with ease; they're forever my hurt" since he's the bearer of bad news. He continues to comfort Claudio and explain that his countdown to return to Newo is in vain and that his focus needs to be on the mission and what's at stake (Would it really matter if you were to count the days left with your hand? Your focus secure and the loves you left well [Newo is safe at home]. Smiles staged in photographs, here until (Those memories are forever])
Claudio then thinks of Newo as he gets close to breaking down.
Jesse then tries to reaffirm his and Claudio's resolve by mentioning Matthew and Cambria, "Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother, "Kill or be Killed" spilled the words from your mother. Jesse can't sleep at this point and justs lays back with the light on thinking in silence. Everything is sinking in with Claudio in the silence.
Jesse acknowledges "You couldn't last a lifetime" knowing his nephews life will never be the same and the kid he knew will be gone now that the situation is changing his role in everything. He know's how much Claudio has lost and given up in such a short time. He kind of taunts him as though Claudio won't accept his fate and says I know you have better things to do than avenge your family and save the world; go carve that girls name in your arm.
Claudio can't accept it and starts calling him a liar and isn't believing the story. Claudio tells his uncle, "Liar, lie away..." His uncle then get's angered by being called a liar and Claudio not heeding his words about his family and tells him "If you die in this, it'd be better than what you're about to go through" (If you get to put to sleep like an old dog, you're better off) Jesse then says, I've told you what you need to hear and what i needed to say, now take time to soak it in (I've been cautious with the words I extend. Allow this year before the world starts to end) as Ambellina looks on.
I think Claudio eventually drifts off to sleep but keeps replaying the scenario of what happened with his family according to his uncle and wakes up crying thinking of his mom crying for his dad. He begins accepting it throughout his sleep and begins to dream that he made it home that night (Which is where 21:13 begins)
I think Jesse is "The Light" as he held the truth about the events that transpired, and Claudio was "The Glass" who was about to break at the news of how everything changed for him in one fell swoop.
Thank you
The ending will kill me every time
This band has reinvented the rock opera and become and instant classic. Been obsessed with these guys since 2002!
This whole album played over and over while I was in highschool. I still jam this in 2021. (Class of 04)
Same, but ‘08. Glad to know Coheed has been making soundtracks to leaving adolescence since forever :D
06 here. This and system of a Downs steal this album were the first two CDs I ever bought. Oh and The Used album, which still holds up today phenomenally.
Class of ‘22 here. I can’t believe I haven’t discovered this sooner.
Same here! One of my favorite bands 4 sure
Same here!
I remember hearing Favor House Atlantic at a T-shirt shop, then running to my local record shop to seek it.
I dedicated this one to my first gf in 2004... good times.
This song truly saved my life... I literally had nothing left and didn't want to keep trying and my friend introduced me to this and I held on to the song, the lyrics and his voice for dear life. I'm happy to say my life is no where near where it was a year ago, and I owe every bit to music and submersing my mind into lyrics instead of negative bull shit.
He tends to do that. :) Glad your good now.
I've been through that many times myself.
Nicky Bee I hope she gains hope from this song 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I sent it to her when I read your comment ❤️❤️❤️❤️💔
Totally transforming the emotional mind side for sure
I love you
I know the end says "Pray for us all" but when I'm not paying attention it sounds more like "Soul for a soul" And its oddly soothing.
I used to think it was pray for us all, save all us all idk why probably because of how well this band and how well Claudio writes
the lyrics sheet actually says that at that part of the song it says "Pray for us all... My dearest Apollo I'm Burning Star IV" i try to listen for it but its in the background a bit
I hear the same thing
Pray for us all-look for a sign. Either way. Thats what I hear.
I thought it said "Wait for a sign" But I looked up the lyrics not to long ago
The dramatic and epic wailing of the guitar at the end always brings me back to this one. It's such a great way to peak the emotion of the song.
Early 2000s obsession turned in to a life long one. This one is still my favorite. 💜
You're telling me!
I named my kid after them!
Think of all the people that never discovered Coheed and Cambria... poor souls :c
Absolutely brilliant! Speechless.
Slowly the pen touches paper in the guidance of the words that you write.
Memories roll in; of the things you once did
and who you had shared them with. Is somebody thinking of you?
Did I bother telling you this, with the words that cross teeth and jump lips?
A poor choice of words, in wanting to tell you anything.
But words don't come with ease. They're forever my hurt.
Would it really matter, if you were to count the days left with your hands?
Your focus secure and the loves you left; well
smiles staged in photographs here until...
You, you left the light on.
There's a chance I might have tripped, girl
You were there to hold on.
Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother;
kill or be killed spilled the words from your mother.
I'll lay awake for a while.
I'll leave the light on a while.
But you couldn't last a lifetime. Caught between here and the days of it;
carving her name across your arm with every wish. It's hit or miss... her.
I told you so. I measured distance in lines departing the rest of my life.
But you, you, you... you had better things to do [x2]
Liar, liar, liar, liar. [x6]
Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother;
kill or be killed spilled the words from your mother.
I'll lay awake for a while.
I'll leave the light on a while.
But you couldn't last a lifetime. Caught between here and the days of it;
carving her name across your arm with every wish. It's hit or miss... her.
I told you so. I measured distance in lines departing the rest of my life.
If you get put to sleep, like an old dog, you're better off.
If you get put to sleep;
I've been cautious with the words I extend.
Allow this year before the world starts to end.
Your father's dead. He passed in his sleep,
and I woke to the sounds of her crying.
Your father's dead. He passed in his sleep.
Pray for us all. [to fade]
One of my all-time favorites...my heart hurts.
can these songs not kill me every time plz
Claudio's voice makes me tear 🥺 & I'm a dude. Not tears of sadness but,his voice is beautiful. His lyrics touch the soul. I 🖤 you coheed & cambria. Keep up with the beautiful poems you guys make.
I cried at their concert, absolutely amazing.
Oh yea 😢🥲
This song is truly addicting like drugs. Glad such song exist! Great adrenaline rush and chill bevause I can relate to this song
Last thing I expected was a Coheed and Cambria song in a Sonic creepypasta, but damn did it fit.
What is the name of the creepy pasta?
niggawut
@@evilira718 Needlemouse from shutupjojo
I cant believe its been 20 years
I never knew why I had such an emotional issue listening to this song until after my father passed away in his sleep. I never knew this song was just a premonition
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss i hope your doing okay!
My uncle died in his. This song immediately came to mind. I’m sorry for your loss 💕
this album is amazing
The Light & The Glass >>>>>>>> Stairway to Heaven
man those lyrics..
Why does this song only have 11,331 views?? This song is amazing!
Because we all own the album and don't frequent TH-cam for the heed
Because other people uploaded the song before Coheed themselves did, and they ended up taking a lot of the views
You're amazing

A poor choice of words
I sing my life away to this shit. And I suck. ✌🏼️😏♥️♥️♥️
Thumbs up. Me too dude. Me too.
2022 still here?
I feel the love why would i lie it was a good memory I still waiting
Why hasn't the Amory Wars been made into a movie? This would be badass soundtrack music with some sweet sci-fi shit going on.
I SO AGREE!
ClamManDan there is a movie deal in the works. Mark Wahlberg is one of the producers.
They are supposed to be working on a Netflix series from what I've heard
23 enigma, for sure that shits gunna show up in the next cheese balls sci-fi thriller.
I love this song so much.
Love this song
The memories of ending a long night of teenage partying to this album will stay with me my entire life
So thankful for discovering this band and album
beautiful
Awesome song
Pray for us all!
Slow songs by coheed are incredible and adorable.
so many wonderful moments in this one
but I enjoy the sparseness Claudio uses, when the sound is big, the words are simple
"your father's dead, he passed in his sleep/
and I woke to the sounds of her crying"
I don't know who he's talking to, could be me for how I feel
My favorite part of this song starts at 4:14
This is a pain I share to heart.Someone who I thought was my friend took everything from me.She tried to take my heart,integrity,soul, and good nature.It was as if nothing I did mattered but only chaos and misery.
Master track to my life🙌
Pray for us AAAALLLLLLLLlllllll!!! :-)
I needed this today! prayfor us all....!
Playing the intro on acoustic always gets me sleepy
Now its NEEDLEMOUSE
It's like a Genesis song, about great!
underrated !
It was a coincidence that it was playing the guitar scene. because I was playing pokemon Alpha sapphire, the guitar solo played right as kyogre turned into its primal form and it had to be the best scene ever. *Such a good song*
This is the song i was listening to when it was announced someone uber close to me in my Family died. I can not listen to this without crying manly tears.
2021 Sept. Coheed rocks my world
2023 Sept. Coheed rocks my world
"Why can't you just *LET... THINGS... GO?!* I... I don't know what to do anymore..."
If anyone ever asks: the instrument used in the outro is some kind of toy piano
MaskedMenace830 glockenspiel
I want it made into a music box SO desperately
I was in 9th grade when a friend ask me to burn her a cd. 3 songs were off coheeds album the second stage turbine blade, since that day they have been by far my favorite band. Something about the music they make!! I saw them at a buzzfest and bought the cd i just purchased a week earlier to get in line to meet them! Only time ive been star struck lol
♡♡♡
thx b4nny
where else have I heard this outro before? the first time I heard it I knew it like from my childhood but I've yet to find it and I've wondered for years
Honestly...
Maybe just another great Coheed song that you heard before and subconsciously recognize. Off the top of my mind, Everything Evil and the Crowing have comparable endings.
Unless you're talking about the glockenspiel melody at the very end, which is also a motif in the Coheed storyline, heard in songs like The Ring in Return.
@@beidouvirus3978 yea the melody at the end
Search the lyrics heard from the radio this early morning, I'm not mistaken it's them Coheed.
(Edit) What a great find
Is somebody thinking of you
2024 HYPEEEEEEE
this is PROGRESSIVE AF DNAMM
5:52, 6:36 and 8:00 at 0.75x
Needlemouse
To my best friend Eden. Keep your head up get through this I'm praying for you.
8:43
🤤
In our phenomenally shallow world today, most people can't pay attention long enough to enjoy a masterpiece like this.
I felt this......
Beauty
I want so bad to like your comment but you have 33 likes and I can't be the one to break that
Lmao
Exactly I have to explain so much now
b4nny brought me here
same bro im so glad he did !!!
At the time of this comment, 30 posts, 54 comments total.
And yet, this fact is confusing to me. I like being part of this subculture of good music, makes me feel like I've stumbled upon greatness.
But greatness should be appreciated. However, would it be diminished in some capacity if it were "mainstream"?. I suppose not, although... by definition, wouldn't transcending things/music be in the minority?
I suppose enough time has passed for people to catch on to Coheed, so the point is moot.
Coheed was at one point one of the most popular bands around, my dude. Welcome Home held a spot in the top 10 of the Billboard top 100 for a solid while, and even their recent releases have broken into top 15 for a while.
Shabutie forever
That intro (on the drums) sounds just like Iron Fist
Dang this song really does fit in with needlemouse
needlemouse lol
PHEW!
Yo as a drummer- but shitty guitar player?! This songs middle part like 5:00 to 6:00 that lead descending part then to 6:45 and on doing chords and all the key changes and time signatures changes AND split lead parts?! And then Even trying to attempt the solo …
My left hand is BURNING!
Man these guys write such cool parts !
Very talented songwriters, this will…probably always be my favorite band, even as a mainly jazz musician! something about their writing, motifs and reoccurring themes, concept albums, it’s so cool and intriguing.
Anyone else get a Pearl Jam vibe from the solo towards the end?
We always pretend he says "pray for Gassol" like the basketball player 🤣
What does it mean the melody at the end of the song?
+Selene Owl I think it's supposed to be a sign of the passing of time between albums. It coincides with a door opening, which to me suggests Claudio walking into Newo's house looking for her.
I THINK CLAUDIO SAID IT REPRESENTS THE PASSING OF TIME, NOT FROM ALBUM TO ALBUM BUT WHENEVER ITS HEARD
there's another song that's slow like this, the name slips me :/ can anyone help me?
I assume you mean another Coheed song.
The first one that springs to mind is Mother Superior. It is pretty close to this one in style.
My pearl of the stars
Could it be 'Wake Up'?
Melanie Damon YESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If Claudio ever asks i have work for him to do
Vengo por el Needlemouse
Venimos
Pov: you're here cuz of needlem0use.
Yes
Aw shit i already got caught
Once I heard the song I just had to find it
I’ve been caught
Whose needlem0use?
