"I wrote that song for a friend of mine. She would tell me stories about how her parents neglected her as a kid. My parents were so awesome growing up, I can't imagine what that would have been like. When she was little, she would climb into her neighbor's trees just to see if her parents would notice that she was gone. It really messed her up growing up and still kind of affects her now in her 20s. I wrote "Hold On Till May" to see if she could get any kind of closure on that part of her life. She ended up sending the song to her mom. Her mom didn't know how to respond." -Vic from Alternative Press Magazine
I’m grown ass man that works in construction and pretty well built but that didn’t stop me from crying like a bitch when this song played while I was in the shower. I’m a metalcore guy to the bone but this song is a masterpiece.
K,Today marks another year ,we miss you and I’m sorry you didn’t have the help you needed. Will always remember the day we met and wish I could’ve been there to listen away. See you when that day comes 🤍 4:00
My favorite part of this video is 4:00 as Vic sings "Darling you'll be okay" and Jaime sings it too. Tony's smile, Vic's passion when he sings, Jaimes dimples and the way you can see he's not lying when he says that you'll be okay, and mike looking like a kid in Christmas with his drums. I love this band so much💓
They're playing at my favourite venue in America but I can't afford to drive down there because I live in Canada and I'd need a hotel room. I'm watching these videos and crying.
uncontrollably sob every single fucking time i used to listen to this on repeat feeling so depressed but understood , the comfort of knowing someone understands is powerful
I’m so glad they had tony back for this, I remember reading about his accident and I was at the edge of my seat hoping he would be okay because he’s a big influence for me :,)
I always wanted to go to a concert but then I realized I can watch it live... and at the same time pissing my dad off to buy me tickets for the next one
My best friend sent this to me on the first. I tried to overdose a few days before. PTV always knows when I need them. Thank you for sharing this with us Vic. I needed it so bad.
this song always makes me feel better, ALWAYS. it’s been my go to song for years. I saw them back in 2016, best day of my life and when they sang this song, i cried my eyes out.
I love this song so much , I can’t believe I’m only now stumbling upon this video , The bands live performance is so good , for everyone who’s been holding on till May and still holding on with Pierce The Veil , I hope you’re happy
It's been so fucking long since I heard this song. At the time it came out I was in a shitty place. Not gonna say what happened in that time but it lead to a whole shelf full of anti depressants. I recently listened to this song...it brought back so many damn feelings. The good and the bad. A song has never made me feel this way. Now it has...and there's black mascara down my face lmao!! I'm lame! Haha
She sits up high, surrounded by the sun One million branches and she loves every one "Mom and dad, did you search for me? I've been up here so long I'm going crazy" And as the sun went down We ended up on the ground I heard the train shake the windows You screamed over the sound And as we own this night I put your body to the test with mine This love was out of control 3, 2, 1, where did it go? "Now don't be crazy, yes, now of course you can stay here" Been in a touring band for going on ten years "Big deal", she said, "I guess you're official." I only said it because I know what it's like to feel burned out! It gets you down, we've all been there sometimes But tonight, I'll make you feel beautiful once again And as the sun went down We ended up on the ground I heard the train shake the windows You screamed over the sound And as we own this night I put your body to the test with mine This love was out of control 3, 2, 1, where did it go? If I were you, I'd put that away See, you're just wasted and thinking about the past again Darling, you'll be okay And she said "If you were me, you'd do the same 'Cause I can't take anymore I'll draw the shades and close the door Everything's not alright and I would rather" And as the sun went down We ended up on the ground I heard the train shake the windows You screamed over the sound And as we own this night I put your body to the test with mine This love was out of control Tell me, where did it go?

is it true that she killed herself? I was on the album music vídeo and read some comments about it
Suici deadly I was thinking the same thing. I read it somewhere. 🤔
@@suicideadly5702 Olivia Penpraze, look it up.
@@thanhlengoc3805 Olivia Penpraze is a different fan. Bulls In The Bronx is dedicated to her. This is a different person.

Aaron Land yeah, I hope he’s doing better. Hopefully he wasn’t being overworked or anything during tour.
@@nyancat8655 I thought this was just him being dramatic/acting to the lyrics :D I know he loves fooling around like that sometimes.

She sits up high, surrounded by the sun
One million branches and she loves every one
"Mom and dad, did you search for me?
I've been up here so long I'm going crazy"
And as the sun went down
We ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
3, 2, 1, where did it go?
"Now don't be crazy, yes, now of course you can stay here"
Been in a touring band for going on ten years
"Big deal", she said, "I guess you're official."
I only said it because I know what it's like to feel burned out!
It gets you down, we've all been there sometimes
But tonight, I'll make you feel beautiful once again
And as the sun went down
We ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
3, 2, 1, where did it go?
If I were you, I'd put that away
See, you're just wasted and thinking about the past again
Darling, you'll be okay
And she said
"If you were me, you'd do the same
'Cause I can't take anymore
I'll draw the shades and close the door
Everything's not alright and I would rather"
And as the sun went down
We ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
Tell me, where did it go?
everyone stop at 2:07
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO SAW THAT
DRUMMDERPD
Aladdin Patton YAS 😂
HAHAHAHAAAA
See you on May 2023 , we've been holding May for so many years ❤️
