I will remember this for a long time. I am Living in my small studio and running everyday for my uni. whenever i will come back this song will remind me the beautiful memories i have collected past years. Thanks lumineers.
On the last time we met
Your love was dead
You held my hand
Bit your tongue
Shut me out
Spilled my blood
All around
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I took the poison, praying you'd feel it too
You held your punches back, and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
All alone
Your ax fell
We dragged you down
Gave me hell
Made your bed
Now you sleep
On your own
Guess we'll see
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I took the poison, praying you'd feel it too
You held your punches back, and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
I know that you tried
But you're no friend of mine
Falling apart
You played it the best
A dame in distress, ooh
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
Yeah, wrapped my neck and prayed that you'd feel the noose
I saw the restaurant table for two
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
Yeah, I took the poison, praying you'd feel it too
You held your punches back, and I left the room
Yeah, it wasn't easy to be happy for you
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Leia Oriana bless people who comment lyrics 💕
“you always felt we dragged you down”
Thank you!
@@blahber222 is "your ax fell"!! I listened the song again and it looks like he was saying what you said! But the lyric is "your ax fell"
@@dOrK1169 hahaha yeah I know!!! I always say that!! It was my turn to put the lyrics😄
Finally saw them live, they were amazing. If you get the chance I’d definitely recommend, great show.
THE CINEMATOGRAPHY IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL

It doesn't matter how long I go without listening to the Lumineers, whether it's days or minutes, it always hits hard. Such a coming home feeling I get from listening to them.
❤❤❤❤❤.. We've all been on the receiving end of the person we love not returning those feelings and leaving us lonely and trying to figure out where, when and what we did to cause them to go away.. Awesome video! !! ❤❤❤❤❤
Family Tree + Story (so far):
Frank and Donna Bell were Gloria's parents according to the video for 'Donna.'
Gloria married 'W. Sparks' some time before 1979, which was the year Donna died and also would have been the year that Gloria's son Jimmy was born. Because of the video for 'Life In The City' we can only assume that Jimmy is not W's son.
Easy to assume that W and Gloria moved from NYC back to her childhood farm house after her mother Donna died in March of 1979 as Gloria would be 3 months pregnant by that point as well.
Due to the assumption that W is not Jimmy's father, perhaps that is why he is always so seemingly okay with just leaving the baby behind as he rushes off with Gloria in all of her drunken moments, which would also explain why Jimmy then grows up to be a bit of a fucked up dad as well as his mother was an alcoholic and his father didn't seem to really care about him.
According to the Lumineers website, when Jimmy is older, his wife takes off and creates a new family as well so obviously not having the greatest female roles in his life would also lead to some issues.
They also state that Jimmy was a prison guard which could have likely been something bred from probably being taken into some sort of police custody and then turned over to foster care after Gloria and W. got in their accident -- total assumption though on that but one can only assume he was taken away.
Junior is Jimmy's son so this video has skipped Jimmy's generation and is showing his son Junior and how he is rebelling as well as a teen as Jimmy - his father - was also an alcoholic.
So we have Donna (Bell) = mother of Gloria Sparks (nee, Bell).
Gloria = mother of Jimmy (Sparks)
Jimmy = son of Gloria and W. (or one-night stand man); father of Junior (Sparks)
Junior = son of Jimmy, grandson of Gloria, great-grandson of Donna.
Essentially what is happening with the Sparks' story so far is showing how the spark of addiction can really turn into this raging flame and carry on for generations!
Thank you for listening to my Ted talk.
Wow
I thought i was reading a blurb 😂
Wow! God bless your kind gesture!
Alguém traduz por favor??
That's helpful, thank you! I keep thinking I'll pay more attention and sort it out, but I get caught up in the music and the raw despair of the video and forget!
it wasn’t easy to be WAITING for you!

Needed this
For Me: i went thru some difficult times and i smoked weed a lot. All because of this one girl i could not get out of my mind and weed was all way i could get thru that shit time. This music video kind of shows how smoking weed made me feel better even tho this girl kind off broke me for a while. But at the end of the day you have to face your problems because they will never go away if you dont.
The Lumineers is my favorite band. I'm excited ... From BRAZIL

its been 2 years since the first time i listen to this song, now i realized this happen in my current situation, the last time we met was christmas day 2022, kissed and being touched. i didnt know his love was already dead that time. it hurts, i still love you Leo, i will remember you
As someone who knows very deeply about this kind of love, it's both exhausting and addicting.
Yes it is 😢
Only one singer (band) in the globe, whose song waits before premier ,💥💥💥💥💥love from Nepal🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵

This is the amount of times we are going to watch it 😂😍
I can't wait.. I hear the song on Spotify while getting ready for work.. And I instantly look up for the video in TH-cam.. See that it's on countdown for premiere!
Hi Nadia
I have never felt so on point with a song in my life!!
THIS ALBUM IS A MASTERPIECE.
I-/ ♥
I swear Luminners have both songs and videos on another level. 🤩😭😭🖤🖤
I genuinely like everything this band puts out, they are so good on a consistent basis, its unreal!
It is said that every one of us in the world has a soul mate.
Mine is MUSIC.
Just was thinking about this song and i didn't knew it's name just remembered how my brother and I used to sing this in lockdown
By the way one if the best song I've heard..
2:25 when she unbuttons and my guy coughs the smoke out 😂😂 best Moment of this kids life 🙌🙌🙌
Their music is like the best summer evening, your all time favorite meal, dessert, song, blankie, smell, jeans, color and happiest moments, ALL WRAPPING ITSELF AROUND YOUR SOUL AT ONE TIME💖 Soul enhancement everytime THANK YOU!!!💖💖💖😍😍😍
This is an awesome comment!!
the cinematography, the story, and the song are just... I can't find the right word...Just GODDEMN outstanding
I swear to god I can't understand how this is not considered music excellence and instead cardi B gets Grammy awards 😧😧😧
Exactly, I mean they make such beautiful songs but they never get recognized for it
While I understand your point the two artist are completely different musically. The Lumineers wouldn’t be in a Grammy for Best Rap Artist and cardi wouldn’t win an indie/folk award. So comparing the two is kind pointless
That’s what I am saying to myself all the time.. and they aren’t famous as her pfff most of people like commercial music not this kind of music . How is shallow this world
@@daniellesingletary4934 Nah not at All sweety. Think twice. And if u need to try agian.
It's cause of the fucking millenials 😑
,Simply WOW!, Lumineers. And God Loves me and Jesus died for my Sins. Not making fun of God or Jesus, just Thanking them for the Lumineers.
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have checked every hour for this video to see if it came out yet lol
Holy shit they always deliver excellence. They deserve more recognition!
It's hard to feel happy for someone who's left ur life but if you really love them u want them to be happy even if it isn't with you and that's how I feel about this song
You are very correct. All the losses can teach you real love for others, but it leaves it's mark.
@@CoffeeKillersClub definitely, i think it takes us what seems like an eternity to get over certain heartbreaks. But it's good to know in the end that we did what we could to keep them and we gave it our all regardless of it's ending
the last time we met was christmas day 2022, kissed and being touched. i didnt know his love was already dead that time. it hurts, i still love you Leo, i will remember you
I relate to these lyrics.
2017: "I took the poison hoping you feel it too" Brokedown with PTSD and depression. Cut my wrist hoping mother would see how much I was hurting inside.
2018: "I would lie awake hoping you don't lie awake for me" Struggled to rebuild my resources. Most aspects of my life shattered from years of mental illness, I felt so bad and fragile about having nothing. Relationships, work, money, security... It pained me thinking my mother must have shunned me, the way I shunned myself.
2019: "It wasn't easy to be happy for you". I'm more stable than I used to be. Living a more independent life. Half of the time, I'm aware of my co-dependent ways, and how my actions of self-destruction are manipulative. How it would bring me down, stuck in this love-hate relationship game with mother. "If you don't have it then you'll never give it". My mother is a dry well, I would not fill it bawling my eyes out.
So yeah, I stop expecting the motherly love that I hoped for. And I find myself happy for her sometimes. Her actions hurt me in the past, they hurt less now. I hated her, I hate her less now.
I hope one day I'll have enough love for myself. And be truly calm, and happy for her. For I know I love her.
My wife loves the Lumineers, but is getting annoyed. We take our dog on a 30 minute walk everyday and all I do is play the same three songs from this album on rotation. Now I have a 4th!
Corrz I don’t see the issue here
Basically YOU love the Lumineers. She just likes them.
Corrz my bf felt this
Maybe try the rest of their excellent music?
Lmao, no really
I believe that the guy in this video is Gloria's son, and he is remembering seeing his mother run out into the field and take her shirt off when he was a baby, which we saw in the "Donna" video. In some weird Freudian way, maybe this is what he wants to see a woman do now, and he envisions his date doing the same. This album seems to be about the ways that patterns of behavior keep passing through generations, and the sins of the father (or mother in this case) keep arising in their children. I can't wait to watch it keep unfolding. These music videos are so special. Please work with this director forever.

The Lumineers is so underrated
I somewhere dont want this music taste to be common. I want it to be exclusive. Idk if I'm right.
@@AbhishekSharma-od2yy as far as the genre of music goes they are already one of the most popular so not really exclusive at all.
thats because the rest of the world doesnt like music that is too "real". They like their distraction music that doesnt remind them of the consequences of their own actions.
@@kinetictrading809 and that's perfectly fine. People can like what they like for whatever reasons
Mohamad danial stfu the Lumineers are not underrated and they’re well known. Im not sure if you left this comment because you’re a dumb fuck or if you’re one of those pathetic fucks who wants to feel like they’re special or deep based off of their music selection.
The girl looks like a young Charlize Theron. This is amazing and you'll always be my favorite band forever. I really wish I could meet you guys someday.
I was lucky enough to see them live at the van Andel arena in Grand Rapids it was for their cleopatra tour, I loved every second of it !! :) they really are such an amazing band
Once again the Lumineers make another great song
can we just for a second appreciate how BEAUTIFUL IS THAT GIRL IN THE VIDEO

Greatest group ever! My favorite song! Awesome
Согласен с тобой
Stranger: which series are you watching atm?
Me: Lumineers' new album 😁🌟
How is it possible that a band like this is so underrated. The story of his lyrics is even poetic.
The video has 46 million views now.
She is absolutley stunning..
Holy shit that was so good not only is it a beautiful song but an amazing video to portray it ❤
Damn, I recommend Lumineeers to everyone I know. Spread the word, friends. We are in the midst of greatness.
"I took the poison praying you'd feel it too."
You guys never disappoint me when it comes to lyrics, good music video and a good song❤
what does it mean?
I’d like to to think he meant some sort of love potion 😳
@@elisazanni9210 it means you're destroying yourself and suffering for the toxic relationship and hoping the other one would care at all
I think the whole point of including melodies from their previous album and mimicking scenes from other videos is to illustrate that we all go through the ups and downs of life. Each character's experience bleeds into others spanning generations, leaving the listener confused. But it isn't meant to be figured out because the ultimate theme is that there is nothing new under the sun, and this is the human condition. We love, we ache, we desire.
i’ve never had a favorite band until now

Ha buon duaaa
When the girl turned the heat up with her foot....excellent touch.👍
This song is beautiful. Reminds me of Elliott Smith and the Beatles, and some others.
Still don't know why my brother Ryan could never love me and always felt such abusive negativity towards me. Oh well. My love for him ran out after all he did to me. Poisoned me and strangled me, often. He kept trying to murder me. He couldn't ever just let me make music, and money, and move out and move on with my life. Everyone did that to me, even God. They all orchestrated it, even God. The abuse, the assaults, the murders, the torture... So many crimes against me, with me as the victim, and only a victim, they all orchestrated, even God. While I orchestrated many songs, all on my own, and even an escape route, multiple ones, many times, that all failed. They kept cognitively disabling me and physically disabling me. I'm The Lumineers, and many other musicians and bands. Many. All alone. Thanks for always ruining my life, Ryan, God, and all the others. Don't relate to it. No sense or rationale or intelligence to it, any of it. Senseless violence and senseless destruction. Well, Hell's real, and I'll be seeing you there, from my position as one in Heaven, always in Heaven. While you're always in Hell, or Oblivion. You never make it to Heaven. Ever. Only I do. Easily. Easy for me.
Ryan is the "dame in distress" as he put it. I was the daemon distress. Lol. God is handing Everything and All over to me soon, due to God's trespasses against many, against all, against me. I'm God's replacement.
Ryan called me the dame in distress, and I think it was really him. I mean, those crimes mounting, his crimes, and all the penalties for them. Gotta be distressing.
Ryan admits to wrapping my neck and the noose... And he called what was mine his. Never belonged to him. Ever. He's never been much to me. Just an abuser, and a rapist. God also mistook what was mine for its. My neck, my body, my life, my music. They never knew how little others thought of them, and how little others really cared about them, on account of how they treat... Everyone.
The lyrics are me quoting some of the things Ryan said to me, and some might just be my words.
This may sound crazy, but I truly have tears come from my eyes every time I hear a new song from them for the first time. The amount of beauty that they put into their music is amazing. God I love this group. Thank you
Aside from their music I am always excited to see their music videos because it's aesthetically pleasing
Is it selfish for me to wish that the Lumineers will stay underrated as it is? Because I want to be possesive by their greatness and at the same time want people to know how amazing they are! I can't just see one day that their music will chafe. I want it to be preserved because it's beyond every metaphors you can say! Amazing!
The Lumineers is not that underdog as we think, they as not just in the pop culture. To those indie folk lovers, The Lumineers is pretty mainstream.
Just watched Super Dark Times and Charlie Tahan (the guy in the video) killed it! What a movie. Fantastic acting
Great movie.
Most underrated song from iii album

I can’t wait to see you guys touch the sky and above. III is gonna be THE BOMB. Much love. Keep up

Cause the actors need recognition too.

Amazing clip! Oh God, now I have to wait for 5th video.
BUT WHAT DOES ANY OF IT MEAN
Jackson Joseph i mean we know a lot abt all of the videos. like this is Gloria’s grandson, we can presume that girl in the car is imaginary, we know the whole album focuses on a family through three generations struggling with addiction. but like i feel you lmao. i cant wait for it to all be out and we can piece together everything
I am so so happy that the Lumineers have started highlighting how addiction has such a devastating effect on both families and communities, I myself was caught in the grip of this pernicious deadly disease, caused a whole lot of hurt and pain and worry to my family and loved ones, stole a whole load of their peace of mind and contentment. for 30 years a long long time, never ever thought there was a way out lived a life of hopelessness emotionally null and void. drugs were the solution to all of my problems, finally through emotional pain i sought another way and found freedom from active addiction. 851 days clean today. THANKFULLY WE DO RECOVER. cant wait to see the Lumineers play on the 22nd November in Glasgow. (so much more than a concert to me its a celebration of my clean time) their music got me through a lot of rough nights and helped me cope with a lot of guilt and shame i was facing made it a bit easier and for that I'm truly a grateful recovering addict. thank you from the bottom of my heart Wesley Jeremiah and Neylah.

I didn’t leave a dislike on the song, I never do that, but I didn’t like the song. Definitely not something I’ll be listening to
Donutsandmusicaltheatre areamazing thank you for sharing that life decision that affects us all.
Robin Well, hey asshole, he wanted to know who didn’t like it, and I stood up.
I’m confused but I love it
Very beautiful! ♥
the lumineers, their songs come together to tell a story. not many artists do that. it’s just brilliant. as you watch more videos, the songs come together and make more sense. love love love it

Lumineers live at the o2 London 27/11/19
Amazing night 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
A memory for ever
Ahhh my husband listening to pearl jam with his headphones on . Me listening to this... Slow dancing and laughing. 10 years we've been lucky. Ahhh I need more Lumineers... And Pearl Jam.
I am overwhelmed by some unknown emotion. What to do now? Bring out the 5th soon. I need to get better.
The Lumineers never disappoint!!! 🎶❤️
What an epic Nissan.
I feel like almost every guy has had at least some similar encounter with a girl like this at some point, usually at a young age...they like to have you around and have your attention, but only until they get bored which usually doesn't take long...you try and feel sort of helpless as you can see her drifting away, but only later realize it was always going to be in vain. It's a good lesson to learn for a young man. I'm sure girls have their version of this as well. I don't know why but it's almost good for young adults to go through things like this...builds character and teaches you what you really should be looking for in a love interest...just so long as it doesn't make one jaded which definitely can happen.
I love how he sings "all alone" in the same tone as in my cell.
This was stunning. I love their music it's so amazing and touching. Well done !!!

Honestly this song has so much meaning to me now I just got dumped and this song makes me feel a little better because I don't hate him I just hate that he did this to me but I'm happy for him in his life

My sister was gonna buy me tickets to a Lumineers concert, but Covid came, and it fell through. This is one of my favorite bands, and I have loved all of their songs. I even started learning some of their songs on my guitar, and really wanna learn how to play this since it’s one of her favorites.
he's a man of focus
Smoking is everywhere in this album
It surprises me how such a great song can be sung on a acoustic guitar only.
Always with that unique vibe, love the lumineers!
The lumineers you guys soooo aesthetic🥰🥰🥰
I was dating my first boyfriend when the Sparks Story came out. One day he came to my house and said "it seems like the lumineers are making a movie album" and we watched all the videos as it realeased. it's been 2 years since our break up, and I still miss him everyday, because he was my best friend. When we broke up, he tattooed a couple months later "if the sun don't shine on me today..." on his wrist. Everytime I listen to The Lumineers I'll remember him, and how happy we were.
1. all i think about is ho hey
2. the girl's eyes are charming
3. smoking in car with closed windoes is suffocating
4. i like the fog and somewhat rainy weather
Hey you , u have a good taste in music ^-^ !
I’m crying already, this is pure art
