    I cannot stop drinking alcohol. No matter what I try, where I go, how long I last at a time. I always go back. This song makes me comfortable. I can't stop myself. I see my life from behind my eyes and the bottle. Thank city and colour for this. I can cry on an invisible shoulder

      Hello internet stranger. Same. It's going to happen for us. You do you and make your own way. I believe in you, and hopefully I can follow your lead when alcohol is a mere afterthought to your progress.

      One day at a time. Reach out to people and talk it helped me I’m 50 days sober so very much ground zero still. Speaking to other alcoholics is the only way to get better. I wish you all the best you can do this

    My best friend told me that she loved this song, she told me that his voice was the kind of voice that you want to put in your pocket so that any time you get sad you can take it out and listen, and it would make you feel better. She was right! A sad song that is uplifting...that is irony. :-)

    I found out about this song and band randomly. Some guy had died, i had no clue who he was so being curious i clicked on his profile and the kid had shared this song a few hours before his death. Great song. May he rest in peace.

      Eh, the Band is just one guy Gustavo. his name is Dallas Green and was the lead guitarist and clean vocalist for a band from canada called Alexisonfire. You should def do some research on them I promise it is worth your time.

    I just got out of the military and alcoholism is something that i struggle with daily, this song speaks to me in more ways than i could ever explain. Brings tears to my eyes, but hope to my heart at the same time in a strange way..knowing i'm not alone in these struggles

    My mom has been a heavy alcoholic for 10+ years. I love how people think this song is trying to make you sympathize with being an alcoholic when really, the point is at the end that you DON'T need alcohol to solve your problems. Your nerves will be the death of you either way. It's a song I will listen to until I get much older after she has passed to remind myself to not go down the same path as she did.

  • @DbPriincessxox
    @DbPriincessxox 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This song was so my life a few month's ago..It's scary how many insane thoughts were in my head when my father passed, and what a drunk I was! Yup 20yrs old & a drunk, depressed and losing my mind. Until a few months ago when I discovered Dallas Green and his song's and it made me feel better that I wasnt alone.

    I'm currently drunk for the very first time and suddenly this song makes a frightening amount of sense. I'm a little afraid, and definitely worried.
    ....But his voice is so beautiful that it helps me orient myself every time I re-listen.

    Unfortunately, this song has been my life ever since my return from trying to save lives as a medic in Iraq. With all the things that I had to deal with, whiskey is the only thing that helps me to sleep at night. I'll be alright eventually... I hope. Hearing the passion fueled into these gut wrenching lyrics helps to ease the pain somewhat. Thank you Dallas for getting a song out there that expresses the sorrow that so many people go through everyday.

    i am one of those people that is almost always touched by anxiety and ruthless inquietude. it is not easy to fit in society when you are like that, and it is hard to constantly try to function 'normally'. i like to think about us, these kind of misfits, as aliens stuck in a human form, that were born at some other galaxy, in past lives lived on other planets with, for us, more soothing air to breathe. so i often see Earth as a filthy round ball, filled with no oxygen and nothing but toxic gasses

    When I was in the pits of my meth/alcohol... errr everything addiction and lost all my family and friends and was surrounded by freaks and users this was my anthem. I would be loaded and I would shout the lyrics of this song out while listening to it downing a half gallon of booze. Now 3 years later in healthy, happy, got my family back and my good friends. I’m financially stable and doing great. But this song will always be a reminder of hard times.
