It’s because we know the pain and suffering behind our eyes and don’t wish that anyone goes through what we are dealing with. “the people with the biggest smile hide the most pain”
Until I break down, then nobody can be within 5 feet of me or they might be impaled by whatever I'm holding, excuse when I breakdown I go into a blind rage that putd anything in my path in danger
Same man it hits very close to home. We don’t feel worthy of being happy we feel we deserve to be hurt so we inflict it appon ourselves so we can make ourselves feel the pain since others won’t we think
This song really does hit home, I lost everything 4 months ago due to my ex partner trying to kill me but I survived & this song has helped me so much, Thankyou
Loki Laufeyson that was a tough lyric to write but came from a real place. However, how we feel does not have to define us. Hope you’re good to yourself. Stay strong friend 🖤
Yeah, I get what you mean. I think one of the problems in it is that we forget who and what we are when in the intensity of what we feel. Though I may just be projecting, but at risk of that I felt a strange desire to share
@@AT-gj1erPlease. DON'T GIVE UP. PLEASE. YOU HAVE SO MUCH MORE TO LIVE FOR, I WAS DEPRESSED FOR A WHILE, AS I DIDN'T HAVE MANY PEOPLE WHO LOVED ME BESIDES MY PARENTS. I FELT REALLY ALONE. LIKE I WOULD NEVER BE LOVED. NOW I'M STARTING TO GET INTO A RELATIONSHIP. AND I FINALLY FEEL LOVED AGAIN. THIS PERSON HELPED PUT ME BACK TOGETHER- I ROSE LIKE A PHOENIX FROM THE ASHES. I FEEL LIKE I'M REBORN AND FINALLY MOVING FORAWARD. SO PLEASE THINGS WILL GET BETTER- TRUST ME.
"I over think till I'm sick." The feels man. 11 years ago I was toying heavily with the idea of ending it all. Then I had my daughter and she showed me "the weight of the world" wasn't enough to crush me. I still have my bad days. But I won't end it. I'll carry that weight like a Titan.
That sounds like something my mum would have thought before I was born. I think she's the best mum I could have had. I'm sure your daughter thinks the same. :)
OMG...I hear you. I've hit rock bottom too and many times wanted to end it all. But I'm still here ...miserable with a broken heart ....cos I'm gutless.
@@muttliee it's not gutless to keep going. It takes alot of will to keep it up when you want it to all end. But it's worth it. You'll still have bad days, but they will just make you stronger. Be a living testament to the human will.
@@muttliee suicide is the coward's way out. Any idiot can quite a marathon because he feels like it, but it takes courage to get to the finish line. If you can't do it, it's because you're smarter than you give yourself credit for. I considered the idea myself many times over the years and I can say with absolute certainty that things get better, IF you roll up your sleeves and make it so. Patience and determination are the key to everything. I don't know what your problem is, but I know humans, people, are much more capable than what they think. Only by seeing it through to the very bottom can you begin to rise to the top.
"Why are you sad?" Or "Why are you like this?" They asked me. "Well, it's to the point where I don't even know anymore." I replied. - (Yooo thank you for all the likes! Keep your heads up high, kings/queens/lords I'm proud of you for making it all this way👑👑👑) -
I was told I wasn't depressed by an ex friend of mine because he never saw the cuts that covered most of my body. So when I told him why I was absent from school for around a month he didn't believe that I was in a mental hospital for cutting.... Eventually I said ya know what believe what you want I'm done! Never spoke to him again
@@werewolfwithinternetaccess4155 I hope you’re in a better emotional place now friend....I love your name, Shadow Slayer....Makes me think of driving out the darkness....❤️ 🦋Lily🦋
@@Lily_Samson thank you ❤️ I'm in a much better place since I ended the friendship and have been cut free for around 2 years There is always a light at the end of the tunnel
@@adi4032 stay strong, you've got this I don't know if it will get better but you've got to get up and make sure that it stops, you're the only one who can change your future. I hope you're doing better even if it's just a tiny bit. I believe in you!
I never thought I would ever find a song that basically portrays me, but here I am at almost 2 in the morning bawling my eyes out because I feel this pain constantly day in and day out and usually songs like this just help me feel. Thank you for producing such amazing soul touching music. You have definitely gained a new fan. I just hope I can carry this weight a little longer to maybe someday find that light at the end of the tunnel...
@@audreyistired thank you so much, i dont usually expect people to be this kind, and i love seeing it in the comment section of my favorite band. I'm fine ❤️ ur comment made me happy
I've been listening to your music for a while now. I'm 15 and my family doesn't understand anything that I try to tell them. So whenever I'm in a bad state, I'll just start listening to some of your songs, and somehow it just makes me feel better after listening to a few. It sucks to know how many people feel this way, but at the same time it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who feels like this.
I don't know you but I am a mama to 2 teen girls and I love you ❤ you are worthy. You are enough. You are loved and you are perfect how you are.I'm so sorry that you understand this song like you do. **hugs** hang in there kiddo, it does get better ❤❤❤
My parents tell me that I am "to young" to understand anything so they shut me down every time I try to tell them something serious. I know how you probably feel.
You beautiful babygirl. I understand your feelings. I was there at your age. I have a son that has fought depression for many years. My heart goes out to you. Always remember there are some of us you can always reach out to. Remember no matter what you are enough!!! You have so much to look forward to. We have just lost another family member to suicide and I truly understand the struggle is real. Please reach out to someone, anyone. And girl if you need to, you can even reach out to me. Don't give up the fight, be the warrior that I have faith in you that you can be.
Are you happy now? You've successfully made me cry. I'm in school and people are looking at me. And I'm just sitting here crying because this is beautiful.
I should comment something creative, cause I came as soon as I got the notification. But all I can say is Thank You. I'm sure there are a lot of people out there, including me, who finally felt understood while listening to your songs. Believe it or not, it's a great help. I was waiting for this song and it really didn't disappoint me, it's another masterpiece. Thank You for making music for us, keep going, guys!
This song hits a bit hard despite how gentle it is. Probably because it sums up the things I don't want to say or even admit to since I know how true they are.
@@CitizenSoldier First, to whomever is handling the social media and engaging with the fans and comments, you are an absolute rock star!! Or if it's several people, likewise!! Seriously, it means more than words could express. Secondly, I just found you guys a few days ago, like 3 ... and I've been listening on repeat since. I've shared and shared, and will continue to share until everyone I know, that needs to listen, does! Your music has given me immense comfort in my solitude. Like so many others, and Joseph above, the way you have reached so many and myself is profound, and will have endless ripples to your credit. Thank you for keeping it real! Third, and last, it is absolutely heartbreaking to see so many comments of pain and despair. I've been there, am there again, this time I'm breaking the cycle. I'm doing things differently, and I would love it if I can use my scars to help someone heal. Anyone, anyone at all. I know their are groups galore out there somewhere, but we aren't somewhere, we're here, this is our group. This is our tribe. And we will take care of each other. If the above song got your attention, please do not delay in replying to me if you're ready to talk. No pressure, let me tell you my stories first if it helps. There is healing in your pain. It's waiting for you to take the first step. Talk. So much love for all my broken brothers and sisters ❤.
@@larryn1348 my story is a bit different than a typical pain and despair thing. I still deal with it and I try to use my pain to help others. Odd, I know, but I while it feels like I'm carrying the weight of the world, I at least wanna do something good. When I was younger, I had a golden opportunity to prevent something bad from happening and I let my anger get the best of me and lost somebody special. That was almost 17 years ago. Since then, I've always tried my hardest to be there for anyone who needed me. Pretty sad when preventing a suicide is as simple as just being a brick wall and listening to somebody bitch about their life. Thing is, not a lot of folks are willing to just sit down, shut up and listen. A lesson I learned the hard way cause that's all I had to do but the stuff I was being told was touching a nerve and I let my anger get the better of me.

As someone that suffers from depression and anxiety, this song definitely speaks to me in ways that truly understands how I'm feeling. Thank you, Citizen Soldier!
"I overthink until I'm sick" honestly same. My anxiety gets the best of me most of the time and it's difficult to deal with especially when around people or thinking about doing/going somewhere new. I panic until I feel physically and mentally sick. It sucks but I'm try not to cry infront of others just because it's new or I'm way too anxious. I keep fighting but sometimes it feels like there is no end but I know there is and that keeps me going.
I know how this feels. I have been in the exact same boat. People tell me to keep going, that it will get better. I don't know if it ever will get better, but I hope you can get feeling better, and feel aright.
@@Space_Cdz panic attacks are the worst! I just hope that you know that it's okay if you end up being sick because that's your bodys way of coping and telling you that something is wrong. It's natural to be sick and anyone who yells at you for either having a panic attack or being sick can go find themselves some help and I hope they get karma along the way
Here are the lyrics for y’all Feel the weight of the world Over me, tonight If I break, if I break down this time Hope you know I tried My mind's such a mess I can't handle it I'm at the end of my rope I'm so sick of this Just so over it Why won't you let me let go My neck is breaking, body shaking Sometimes it's so hard to breathe But no one sees it follows me I always end up underneath The weight of the world I don't like, like myself very much Despite all your kind words Can't explain why I'm hurting myself But it feels deserved My mind's such a mess I can't handle it I'm at the end of my rope I'm so sick of this I'm so over it Why won't you let me let go My neck is breaking, body shaking Sometimes it's so hard to breathe But no one sees it follows me I always end up underneath These thought won't rest I can't forgive I overthink until I'm sick I'm too damn tired Too worn to fight I don't feel strong enough To leave on the light To leave on the light My neck is breaking, body shaking Sometimes it's so hard to breathe But no one sees it follows me I always end up underneath The weight of the world The weight of the world Weight of the world Feel the weight of the world Over me tonight
@@arlo_bi3237 ay tbf not everyone has the eye coordination to follow the lyrics in the video mate so don't be throwing shade besides it's not the first time one has done this in any music video. And if you say otherwise you must not have been lookin in comments of most music videos XD not tryna be an ass but rather be honest with ya
This song is exactly how so many people feel in this world, and it needed to be said, and in such a powerful way, this song is just beautiful and amazing, the atmosphere it brings you is both comfortable and relatable, for someone who's dealing with this, it holds you like no other, and it's perfect. i thank you guys so much for sharing your story is such a beautiful way. it's helped me cope. much love Citizen Soldier.
I happened to have found this song at the exact moment that I was feeling everything portrayed in this song. I normally don't put shit like this out in the open but I guess I feel like you guys should know. Thank you.
I dont understand how you guys always hit right into my soul, even if this song is "softer" than your other stuff i love it. This amazing voice together with this wonderfull guitar play is amazing
“My neck is shaking, body’s breaking, sometimes it’s so hard to breathe” “but no one sees it, follows me and I always end up underneath” this hits really hard
I cried when I listened to this song. Each and every word really hits me hard. I'm glad to know I'm not alone in this but still, it's difficult to live on suffocating like this.
Sometimes, we all need someone else to help us carry the weight. If you're ever feeling like you just can't go on, reach out to someone who can help you forward.

The ones who suffer behind closed doors are always the ones who open their arms to those who are hurting openly. I've never been able to explain it to myself, bc I'm like that. It kind of scares me, how I'm so weak, yet everyone thinks I'm strong, all bc I hugged them. You're right... No one sees it...
Birk Scherman Edeblom that’s amazing to hear. We deal with anxiety releasing new material and it’s such a relief to read comments like this. Thank you 🖤
The raw emotion of this song is so heartbreaking. "Can't explain why I'm hurting myself but it feels deserved" is such a real lyric especially to a person who has dealt with self-harm. Thank you guys for the mesmerizing music!
I'm always the one lending a hand, but I always wish someone would for once just sit down with me and talk to me about everything going on in my head at times.
I been there I just close my self off I stop talking to people after high school because all my old friends were toxic. I cut a lot out of my life just to be by myself Because I'm stronger on my own. But I wish you the best and have a great one☺💛
"These thoughts won't rest, I can't forgive, I overthink, until I'm sick" I can't explain how accurate that is to me. I overthink every little thing I do and it makes everything so much harder to deal with. You are amazing, and you're music has helped so many people. Please do take care of yourself.
“I never want anyone to ever feel the way that I do so let’s make them happy, and maybe one day if I deserve it someone will be there for me too” -what I tell myself everyday
I am kind to everyone & feel so alone 99% of the time. I hope someone comes & is close to you & cares for you. This world needs a LOT more kindness & less hate!
This song hit so close to home it scared me. Never realized so many more people could feel the same. Thank the Gods my friends made me listen to Citizen Soldier
Me: playing air guitar Mom: oh ur doing that again Me: continues to vibe Mom: what song are you playing? Me: unplugs headphones Mom: oh listen to something that's not so depressing..' Me: looking threw my playlist an relating most of my music is super deep and emotional ..
Literally same Daniella. My brother and dad always tell me not to listen to all these “depressing” songs I have, but, like, I can’t really relate to much else
This song hits close to the heart. My whole life I've stayed strong but lately the world has gotten heavier. It feels like its crushing me. This song is amazing! Thanks for writing this! Your songs give me hope of finding peace with myself. I just became a fan about a month ago and I'm upset I wasn't one sooner!
“My minds such a mess, I can’t handle it, I’m at the end of my rope” I feel those lines so much. I’ve had so much going on here recently that idk if ima be able to handle anything else. I’ve been struggling to get though everyday and make it to the end. This music gives me the motivation and hope to get me through the next day. This is all I have tbh.
These lyrics resonate more than I thought they would. When you’re tired of telling people that your fine because they think your just in a mood all the time it can drain you to the point where breathing is a struggle with that dread feeling inside. Panic attack without the hyperventilating so to speak, that feeling is worse than anything else and I wish I was strong enough to say the words in this song out loud. Then maybe they would realise it’s not a mood, it’s an issue.
I know that probably no one will see this, but this band will describe what I'm going through so much so that this is an escape for me. I have been under the weight of my world for so long. My mom, and grandparents are my only family and they are so sick. I lost my dog, she was my bestfriend and we did everything together. I have PTSD from how we lost her and I havent been able to find a reason to continue on anymore. Life just feels like neverending suffering but because of Citizen Soldier I am able to have a few moments of peace where I can feel like I have a purpose. Thanks so much for all you've helped me through
Told a girl my feelings. I gave her my heart. But she could never give hers to me. And I have to accept it. I feel this song is helping me understand that now. Thanks you for the song. You guys are awesome.
I know you may never see this, but this is the first song that actually describes what I cant seem to put into words. I've been in a dark hole for about 3 years now and this song helps me so much, so thank you Citizen Soldier, you have no clue how appreciative I am. ~Jay
i want you to know that i saw this, and even though ive been going through my own shit for years and years, i would love to comfort you, its been so many years since i havent felt the same way, and im only 16, going on 17 this year on april 16th
Coming from someone who listens to heavy stuff, I gotta say I love this. With all the stuff I've been through with family issues and depression, this just hits close to home
"My neck is breaking, body shaking. Sometimes it's so hard breathe. But no one sees, it follows me. I always end up underneath.....the weight of the world." I cried at that. Your songs voice the things, the thoughts, the feelings I never could. I have never felt more connected to music and I just don't have words to say how much these mean to me, to everyone who can't voice their true selves. Thank you. 💜
I listen to this every day... Wish I could meet this artist he speaks in volumes that most people don't understand.. I've been going through hell n a half and I dunno this guy just gets me 💙💙💙
I too have had suicidal thoughts. You guys are not alone. If anyone else here has had thoughts of suicide, know that we are survivors and I encourage you to keep going.
this came at the perfect moment... "if i break down this time, hope you know i tried." i literally felt every word in the deepest of my soul. i've found new hope to stay alive in this song. so, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. ❤❤❤
How you connect with others, not just me, but with soooo many others is what makes you guys so lovable. Your music, the emotion through singing...literally EVERYTHING. I just want to say thank you for giving guys like me something to relate to. You guys are awesome!
“These thought won’t rest I can’t forget I overthink until I’m sick” I have cried to this part so many times but I always try again in the same toxic relationship
This stuff gets real, especially when you're thousands of miles from home on deployment. Me and the entire division, when we get web access, this is one of those things we think about, the "can we still do this" as we finally read the hundreds of messages from our wives, our parents, our friends. And we find in each other that those messages are what we wanna go home to, fight through every day to see those people that remind us we got something to go back to. So a big thanks to CS for the music y'all continue to put out.
They didn't notice I was crying They didn't notice I was sad They didn't notice I was tired They didn't notice I was alone. They didn't notice I was depressed They didn't notice I was suicidal They didn't notice I was actually trying to make other people smile. They did notice my failing grades They did notice my unattractive They did notice the mean side of me They did notice all of my mistakes They did notice all of my flaws they noticed all the bad things about me but they never try to get a good look at me and say oh your so smart oh your so funny your so perfect:(
I opened TH-cam and this was under my suggestions. I am so happy that I clicked on this song, it really hit me and brought some thins to my attention. Your life could end at any moment, when your least expecting it. Try to always live your life at the fullest!!
Citizen Soldier No, thank you for letting me know, I have a second chance. I’ve listened to multiple of your songs, and they all really made me thing twice about everything. Thank you!
@@Nocteul Chester is a singer in the band Linkin Park. Chester took his own life, that's why he is a legend and many people miss him. Linkin Park is an american rock band. Some songs from them are "Numb", "In The End", "What I've Done", "Papercut", "Breaking The Habit", etc. From what I've listened to, the band mostly plays emotional songs or songs about struggles in life.
I been struggling with some things in my life but hearing this song is somehow bringing tears to my eyes. Especially with the lyric '' My mind is such a mess '' . This is a amazing song
This song is really my life at the moment. Many people lost due to some drugs and such. I feel their weight on my shoulders and the rest of this burning hole also called planet. It's been a very hard period in my life. Due to some circumstances in my past I can't cry anymore and I wish sometimes I still could. And this song is the closest I have ever been to cry the last 20 years. Love you guys and I will keep supporting you guys!
When I heard the preview, I was overjoyed. The song's here and it did not disappoint. The song shares a wonderful sentiment that we all sometimes struggle with and this song helps ease the knowledge of that burden. I love your songs and I look forward to more of them.
So, my boyfriend who is a huge fan of Citizen Soldier decided to have me listen to this song, saying that he thought I would like it. I wound up crying my eyes out the moment I heard it, and it takes a LOT to move me to tears. He asked me why I was crying and if I was okay. I said to him 'I feel like this just about every day of my life, and it's amazing to finally hear a song that validates how much emotional pain someone can and is willing to go through.'
You guys have become the band I listen to the most. Your lyrics are so deep and meaningful. I’ve dealt with all of this just like millions have. We are not alone in this. We are all here for each other, we know what you are going through. Love all of you.
If you're reading this, God has plans for you. The plans he has for you may not seem like the plans you're making for yourself, so therefore, you may not agree with them 100%. Just remember that God loves you wether you're a believer or not. There is still someone who cares about you. Wether you're going through depression, PTSD, or any other mental health issue, you will be prayed for. Scripture says that we must love one another unconditionally and it also says that we should not listen to word of man, but to the word of God. As you're reading this, I want you to know that no matter where you are in life, God is standing by your side.
This song helped me get through my first anxiety attack a few months ago. I had been under so much stress that has built up over this past year and the only things that have helped was the music that you make and that I’ve had one person here for me the whole time even though he’s half an hour away from where I live. I tried to tell my dad about the anxiety attack but he just said that I just spooked myself somehow even though at least 3 or 4 adults at my school told me it was an anxiety attack. The one person that I talk to all the time has helped me stay happy since then and I don’t know what I’d do without him if he were to turn his back on me because I’ve told him so much and I don’t think I’ve even told my best friend about half the things I’ve told him.
Oh wow, I swear a song has never made me this emotional. This is just absolutely amazing, the lyrics, the music, the timing, everything. "If I break down this time, hope you know I tried," Within 35 seconds I find my favorite line and get hit with feels.
I listen to all of your music and it truly helps me through thank you for what you do your lyrics cut so deep and when I listen to your music I don't feel so alone! please never stop doing what you do
This song S C R E A M S to me & most of those ready to just give up! & when you're fighting to stay alive for someone else (kids, parents, friends) it makes it so much harder. Finally I can see someone else feels the same & I'm truly not alone ♡
When I saw the title I was like "oh neat" but as I listened this song nearly brought me to tears. It must suck feeling like your on the edge and no one notices or cares especially when your in the music industry. All everyone really cares about Is the music no one thinks of the artists who write these songs and what really goes on backstage or at home or on tour. All the documentrys we see always show the happy side of artists. I feel like if EVERYONE and i mean EVERYONE around the world heard this it could really bring to light the problems a lot of artists struggle with. Telling us there struggling. They want us to be happy but at the same time there not making themselves happy. If everyone in the world heard this maybe just maybe we could bring to light a serious issue with how the music industry works
FNAF GAMER 101 plays really great insights friend. We totally agree with you. So glad you connected with the song and get the message. Thanks for giving us a chance🖤
@@CitizenSoldier thank you for agreeing. I listen to alot of other bands who have had artist in the band end there lives because no one hears them. Its incredibly unfair that it has to happen. You make us happy and a lot of times we want to return the favor we just don't know how. When I hear songs like this it really hits home and It puts me In artist shoes. Its not our happiness that matters it's yours. If you love what you do for a living and you love the thrill of what your making then your in the right place. Every artist gets hung up on making us happy making songs that make us want more. They don't think of doing something that'll make them happy. A song they love. Yes we might not like it yes we might hate it but as long as the band has fun with the song that's what matters. As long as you have fun then you know you made the right decision
Dont ever let go of the light citizen soldier. I cant explain how much I value your music I dont really relate to any kind of music but this. I'm sure I'm not the only one either. Stay strong and tall we all will be alright.
@@CitizenSoldier I am a huge fan listening to all your songs daily. My life hasn't been the best growing up and still hasn't. But your songs touch pieces of my heart and soul and It makes me feel not so alone anymore in the world. After all the best gifts in life is those that dont cost anything at all.
This song describes me so much every time I listen to it I cry i feel like I never have anyone to talk to and when i do they cant see the pain im in they dont understand you guys do amazing work and make me feel loved keep up the good work
This is so much my life thank you 🙏🏻 for putting the words together you speak for me thank you god bless you and your work ur music is amazing wonderful blessed amen 🙏🏻
Usually my own thoughts break me as I listen to songs but this one was purely the words speaking to me...speaking directly to who I am..to what I am going through.. God...damn I need you
If you are struggling please don't hesitate to reach out to those you trust or consider seeing a therapist. You are not alone in this. Life is worth the pain we go through so stay strong. I wish you all the best
I use music to Express my thoughts....the thoughts I'm too scared to Express myself...and this song expresses them perfect.....this song resonates within my soul... it describes what I feel constantly
Please don't hide you. Feel free to express yourself. You have so much inside waiting to come out. Your emotions and feelings, ideas and all of you is worth expressing, worth being heard. Write again, and if you felt ever like writing a book-please do, I feel you'll be very successful in that!! Sending you encouragement, inspiration, and lots of love.
I've listened to this song a million times, and once again, it hits so close to home. Life is getting more stressful, and people are dropping even more weights on my shoulders, so I get the feeling. Great job guys. You're all amazing
Actually cried to this song, this is actually one of the most relatable songs I've ever listened too. I feel exactly this way.. it's nice to know it's not just me.. absolutely beautiful guys, thank you for creating another amazing song ❤

Your content is amazing my friends listened to a song and said you should be really popular so unfortunate that you are not
This song is absolutely beautiful, I have a depressing song playlist, this and many of your songs are in it
Ooooo i always do uwu and nice
@@CitizenSoldier No Problem guys were happy to be part of experiences and family
I'm sorry I've been busy all day...I'm literally crying rn..thank you guys for always being there..
I noticed that people who deal with depression are the most kind and love to make people laugh because they don't want people to be in emotional pain
Agreed 🖤
Yup. I do exactly that
It is easier to keep others in a good mood, than that others ask you about your pain.
You don't want them to know.
You don't want to bother them
It’s because we know the pain and suffering behind our eyes and don’t wish that anyone goes through what we are dealing with. “the people with the biggest smile hide the most pain”
Until I break down, then nobody can be within 5 feet of me or they might be impaled by whatever I'm holding, excuse when I breakdown I go into a blind rage that putd anything in my path in danger
Song hits close to home, and it's scary to realise there is so many people that feel this way.
Josh agreed. Hope it starts healthy conversations 🖤
Yeah same here too.
Same.
we all go and feel this way but the enemy likes to make us feel that we are the only one that goes through this..God love yous
How may I be of help?
"I don’t like, like myself very much Despite all your kind words Can’t explain why I’m hurting myself But it feels deserved" That hit close
Hope you enjoyed the song. Thanks for listening
Same man it hits very close to home. We don’t feel worthy of being happy we feel we deserve to be hurt so we inflict it appon ourselves so we can make ourselves feel the pain since others won’t we think
"my neck is breaking, body shaking"
Yeah i can relate rn
This song really does hit home, I lost everything 4 months ago due to my ex partner trying to kill me but I survived & this song has helped me so much, Thankyou
@@kristyguy1751 Oof i hope you're doing well
This song talks about suicide , panic attacks, and insecurity’s. This is a much deeper song than it seems and it’s relatable to me on so many levels
Yes. Yes it does.
Me too
Same
It’s a fire that burns through my chest to my brain that gets so hot to where no matter where I go or what I do I feel as if I’m turning to ash
Same man I don’t wanna hurt anymore but I keep hanging on
"Can't explain why I'm hurting myself but it feels deserved"~ Yeah that's me
Loki Laufeyson that was a tough lyric to write but came from a real place. However, how we feel does not have to define us. Hope you’re good to yourself. Stay strong friend 🖤
Same
that weird timing, I read ur comment just when that part of the song happen
Yeah, I get what you mean. I think one of the problems in it is that we forget who and what we are when in the intensity of what we feel. Though I may just be projecting, but at risk of that I felt a strange desire to share
as soon as that line happened, I had a cold chill, and my entire body shivered.
I’m scrolling through the comments and I see not a single comment that doesn’t have a citizen soldier heart. I will always love this band 🖤
🖤
u didn't get a heart xd
You will soon too❤️
That sucks you didn't get a heart from them
It probably doesn't mean as much but here you go
❤
But where is your heart 🥺 nevermind, I'll give you one too ❤️
the lyrics, wow, no words to describe it except near perfectly written
Planet S so nice of you to say. Thank you 🖤
Ikr it's almost too perfect to be real
Resignated internally eternally
@@AT-gj1erPlease. DON'T GIVE UP.
PLEASE. YOU HAVE SO MUCH MORE TO LIVE FOR, I WAS DEPRESSED FOR A WHILE, AS I DIDN'T HAVE MANY PEOPLE WHO LOVED ME BESIDES MY PARENTS. I FELT REALLY ALONE. LIKE I WOULD NEVER BE LOVED.
NOW I'M STARTING TO GET INTO A RELATIONSHIP. AND I FINALLY FEEL LOVED AGAIN.
THIS PERSON HELPED PUT ME BACK TOGETHER- I ROSE LIKE A PHOENIX FROM THE ASHES. I FEEL LIKE I'M REBORN AND FINALLY MOVING FORAWARD. SO PLEASE THINGS WILL GET BETTER- TRUST ME.
Does anyone else feel like this song was made for them. I can relate to every word. Can't believe I've only found this song today.
All their songs hit that way. You're not alone.💜
exactly
Same.
I do.. Feel exactly the same😏

"I over think till I'm sick." The feels man. 11 years ago I was toying heavily with the idea of ending it all. Then I had my daughter and she showed me "the weight of the world" wasn't enough to crush me. I still have my bad days. But I won't end it. I'll carry that weight like a Titan.
So glad you are working through it. Your strength inspires us. Thank you
That sounds like something my mum would have thought before I was born. I think she's the best mum I could have had. I'm sure your daughter thinks the same. :)
OMG...I hear you. I've hit rock bottom too and many times wanted to end it all. But I'm still here ...miserable with a broken heart ....cos I'm gutless.
@@muttliee it's not gutless to keep going. It takes alot of will to keep it up when you want it to all end. But it's worth it. You'll still have bad days, but they will just make you stronger. Be a living testament to the human will.
@@muttliee suicide is the coward's way out. Any idiot can quite a marathon because he feels like it, but it takes courage to get to the finish line. If you can't do it, it's because you're smarter than you give yourself credit for. I considered the idea myself many times over the years and I can say with absolute certainty that things get better, IF you roll up your sleeves and make it so. Patience and determination are the key to everything. I don't know what your problem is, but I know humans, people, are much more capable than what they think. Only by seeing it through to the very bottom can you begin to rise to the top.
"Why are you sad?" Or "Why are you like this?" They asked me.
"Well, it's to the point where I don't even know anymore." I replied.
- (Yooo thank you for all the likes! Keep your heads up high, kings/queens/lords I'm proud of you for making it all this way👑👑👑) -
🖤
I was told I wasn't depressed by an ex friend of mine because he never saw the cuts that covered most of my body. So when I told him why I was absent from school for around a month he didn't believe that I was in a mental hospital for cutting.... Eventually I said ya know what believe what you want I'm done! Never spoke to him again
@@werewolfwithinternetaccess4155 I hope you’re in a better emotional place now friend....I love your name, Shadow Slayer....Makes me think of driving out the darkness....❤️
🦋Lily🦋
@@Lily_Samson thank you ❤️
I'm in a much better place since I ended the friendship and have been cut free for around 2 years
There is always a light at the end of the tunnel
I totally agree with you.. A lot of people have ask me those questions so many times. I always tell them I don’t even know why I feel like this.
"Can't explain why I'm hurting myself
But it feels deserved"
💜
Cutting works good for me
@@adi4032 you need to find a way out of that, please.
@@adi4032 stay strong, you've got this I don't know if it will get better but you've got to get up and make sure that it stops, you're the only one who can change your future.
I hope you're doing better even if it's just a tiny bit. I believe in you!
Exactly
I never thought I would ever find a song that basically portrays me, but here I am at almost 2 in the morning bawling my eyes out because I feel this pain constantly day in and day out and usually songs like this just help me feel. Thank you for producing such amazing soul touching music. You have definitely gained a new fan. I just hope I can carry this weight a little longer to maybe someday find that light at the end of the tunnel...
Sending love you way friend. You’re not alone 🖤

i feel the same way

You are not alone 🖤
you couldn't have chosen a better moment, for me, to release this song.

@@audreyistired thank you so much, i dont usually expect people to be this kind, and i love seeing it in the comment section of my favorite band.
I'm fine ❤️ ur comment made me happy
"im too damn tired, too worn to fight." just exactly how im feeling theses days.. beautiful song.
Ellys Fly hope it gets better...thank you for supporting our music friend 🖤
Same, it hit close
Fight for what? A life nobody wants me to live? I'm going to lay down for now.
I've been listening to your music for a while now. I'm 15 and my family doesn't understand anything that I try to tell them. So whenever I'm in a bad state, I'll just start listening to some of your songs, and somehow it just makes me feel better after listening to a few. It sucks to know how many people feel this way, but at the same time it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who feels like this.
I don't know you but I am a mama to 2 teen girls and I love you ❤ you are worthy. You are enough. You are loved and you are perfect how you are.I'm so sorry that you understand this song like you do. **hugs** hang in there kiddo, it does get better ❤❤❤
My parents tell me that I am "to young" to understand anything so they shut me down every time I try to tell them something serious. I know how you probably feel.
Don't worry there are still people that will listen to you.
You beautiful babygirl. I understand your feelings. I was there at your age. I have a son that has fought depression for many years. My heart goes out to you. Always remember there are some of us you can always reach out to. Remember no matter what you are enough!!! You have so much to look forward to. We have just lost another family member to suicide and I truly understand the struggle is real. Please reach out to someone, anyone. And girl if you need to, you can even reach out to me. Don't give up the fight, be the warrior that I have faith in you that you can be.
Are you happy now? You've successfully made me cry. I'm in school and people are looking at me. And I'm just sitting here crying because this is beautiful.
NonEntity so glad you felt that connection. 🖤
I should comment something creative, cause I came as soon as I got the notification. But all I can say is Thank You. I'm sure there are a lot of people out there, including me, who finally felt understood while listening to your songs. Believe it or not, it's a great help. I was waiting for this song and it really didn't disappoint me, it's another masterpiece. Thank You for making music for us, keep going, guys!
Fanni Kiss what amazing feedback. It’s so incredible to us that you feel such a deep connection to our songs. What motivation. More on the way 🖤
@@CitizenSoldier people like us should be coming together to fight this war of sorrow better
@Entelechymonad maybe i understand sir?
@@willsheppard4288 i agree, i have a place im creating where that can be possible.. hopefully people come.
@Entelechymonad said as time of dying was playing TDG
This song hits a bit hard despite how gentle it is. Probably because it sums up the things I don't want to say or even admit to since I know how true they are.
We hear you 🖤
@@CitizenSoldier First, to whomever is handling the social media and engaging with the fans and comments, you are an absolute rock star!! Or if it's several people, likewise!! Seriously, it means more than words could express.
Secondly, I just found you guys a few days ago, like 3 ... and I've been listening on repeat since. I've shared and shared, and will continue to share until everyone I know, that needs to listen, does! Your music has given me immense comfort in my solitude. Like so many others, and Joseph above, the way you have reached so many and myself is profound, and will have endless ripples to your credit. Thank you for keeping it real!
Third, and last, it is absolutely heartbreaking to see so many comments of pain and despair. I've been there, am there again, this time I'm breaking the cycle. I'm doing things differently, and I would love it if I can use my scars to help someone heal. Anyone, anyone at all. I know their are groups galore out there somewhere, but we aren't somewhere, we're here, this is our group. This is our tribe. And we will take care of each other. If the above song got your attention, please do not delay in replying to me if you're ready to talk. No pressure, let me tell you my stories first if it helps. There is healing in your pain. It's waiting for you to take the first step. Talk. So much love for all my broken brothers and sisters ❤.
That is me to
@@larryn1348 my story is a bit different than a typical pain and despair thing. I still deal with it and I try to use my pain to help others. Odd, I know, but I while it feels like I'm carrying the weight of the world, I at least wanna do something good. When I was younger, I had a golden opportunity to prevent something bad from happening and I let my anger get the best of me and lost somebody special. That was almost 17 years ago. Since then, I've always tried my hardest to be there for anyone who needed me. Pretty sad when preventing a suicide is as simple as just being a brick wall and listening to somebody bitch about their life. Thing is, not a lot of folks are willing to just sit down, shut up and listen. A lesson I learned the hard way cause that's all I had to do but the stuff I was being told was touching a nerve and I let my anger get the better of me.

Why do we want to die before our time? For all those who have power in this fallen world are not even humans. They are the evil spirits, who have stole everything from us. And we, going away before our time to die - we give our enemies what they have wanted all along - we give them our lives. Ephesians 6:12 | View whole chapter | See verse in context
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
If we do not call upone the NAME OF THE LORD and SHALL BE NOT SAVED - then our souls - our very being is theirs (satan`s) and not GOD`S.

As someone that suffers from depression and anxiety, this song definitely speaks to me in ways that truly understands how I'm feeling. Thank you, Citizen Soldier!
The worst pain is when someone that knows how you feel and what you’ve gone through backstab you
Life is rough. Stay strong 🖤
That is the worst feeling I think is possible. And you went throught it. Stay strong, my soldier.
Absolutely true.....
I had a friend like that.. quite a few..
Ex did that to me, so did some "friends"... it honestly drove me into depression and made my anxiety worse😣
"I'm at the end of my rope.
why won't you let me let go?"
I would be that person holding their rope.
We all need people to help us in those moments 🖤🙏🏻
Yes, me too 💗😔 I know how this feels, I wouldn’t let go. Never
I would hold they're rope, but I would need someone to hold my rope
@@gamedayplays7894 Same
Unus annus
Memento Mori :)
"I overthink until I'm sick" honestly same. My anxiety gets the best of me most of the time and it's difficult to deal with especially when around people or thinking about doing/going somewhere new. I panic until I feel physically and mentally sick. It sucks but I'm try not to cry infront of others just because it's new or I'm way too anxious. I keep fighting but sometimes it feels like there is no end but I know there is and that keeps me going.
I know how this feels. I have been in the exact same boat. People tell me to keep going, that it will get better. I don't know if it ever will get better, but I hope you can get feeling better, and feel aright.
It's okay I feel the same
I know that feeling too
The other day I had an panic attack and I almost barfed but if I did I thought I'd be yelled at
@@Space_Cdz panic attacks are the worst! I just hope that you know that it's okay if you end up being sick because that's your bodys way of coping and telling you that something is wrong. It's natural to be sick and anyone who yells at you for either having a panic attack or being sick can go find themselves some help and I hope they get karma along the way
Here are the lyrics for y’all
Feel the weight of the world
Over me, tonight
If I break, if I break down this time
Hope you know I tried
My mind's such a mess
I can't handle it
I'm at the end of my rope
I'm so sick of this
Just so over it
Why won't you let me let go
My neck is breaking, body shaking
Sometimes it's so hard to breathe
But no one sees it follows me
I always end up underneath
The weight of the world
I don't like, like myself very much
Despite all your kind words
Can't explain why I'm hurting myself
But it feels deserved
My mind's such a mess
I can't handle it
I'm at the end of my rope
I'm so sick of this
I'm so over it
Why won't you let me let go
My neck is breaking, body shaking
Sometimes it's so hard to breathe
But no one sees it follows me
I always end up underneath
These thought won't rest
I can't forgive
I overthink until I'm sick
I'm too damn tired
Too worn to fight
I don't feel strong enough
To leave on the light
To leave on the light
My neck is breaking, body shaking
Sometimes it's so hard to breathe
But no one sees it follows me
I always end up underneath
The weight of the world
The weight of the world
Weight of the world
Feel the weight of the world
Over me tonight
Ummm not to be rude or anything but the lyrics are literally in the video...
@@arlo_bi3237 lol yea I realized that after but I didn’t really care so yea

This song is exactly how so many people feel in this world, and it needed to be said, and in such a powerful way, this song is just beautiful and amazing, the atmosphere it brings you is both comfortable and relatable, for someone who's dealing with this, it holds you like no other, and it's perfect. i thank you guys so much for sharing your story is such a beautiful way. it's helped me cope. much love Citizen Soldier.
GrimstuR we are amazed to hear it helped so much. We are rooting for you. Thanks for the amazing support 🖤

Thank you.
DC Fraser you are so welcome. Glad you found it. Thanks for giving us a chance friend 🖤
I dont understand how you guys always hit right into my soul, even if this song is "softer" than your other stuff i love it. This amazing voice together with this wonderfull guitar play is amazing

The ones who suffer behind closed doors are always the ones who open their arms to those who are hurting openly. I've never been able to explain it to myself, bc I'm like that. It kind of scares me, how I'm so weak, yet everyone thinks I'm strong, all bc I hugged them. You're right...
No one sees it...
I know I said "if these scars could speak" was the best song yet....
I was wrong

The raw emotion of this song is so heartbreaking. "Can't explain why I'm hurting myself but it feels deserved" is such a real lyric especially to a person who has dealt with self-harm. Thank you guys for the mesmerizing music!
Wow, this song digs so deep. Like hearing the words I keep to myself day in and day. Yet... Find it so relieving and relaxing.

You're not alone my friend.
I been there I just close my self off I stop talking to people after high school because all my old friends were toxic. I cut a lot out of my life just to be by myself Because I'm stronger on my own. But I wish you the best and have a great one☺💛
I feel you, sometimes i say to my friends that I'm okay but really I'm not. I just don't want to give them the burden that i bear on my shoulders.
I’m here for you or anyone else who just wants to talk, I’ll share the weight of the world with you..

"These thoughts won't rest, I can't forgive, I overthink, until I'm sick" I can't explain how accurate that is to me.

These lyrics resonate more than I thought they would. When you’re tired of telling people that your fine because they think your just in a mood all the time it can drain you to the point where breathing is a struggle with that dread feeling inside. Panic attack without the hyperventilating so to speak, that feeling is worse than anything else and I wish I was strong enough to say the words in this song out loud. Then maybe they would realise it’s not a mood, it’s an issue.
Damn...CS literally gave a heart to every single comment....thats dedication towards making people happy...
Abhishek .G we love the people who support us. They deserve that level of dedication.
I know that probably no one will see this, but this band will describe what I'm going through so much so that this is an escape for me. I have been under the weight of my world for so long. My mom, and grandparents are my only family and they are so sick. I lost my dog, she was my bestfriend and we did everything together. I have PTSD from how we lost her and I havent been able to find a reason to continue on anymore. Life just feels like neverending suffering but because of Citizen Soldier I am able to have a few moments of peace where I can feel like I have a purpose. Thanks so much for all you've helped me through
Thanks 💜!

Told a girl my feelings. I gave her my heart. But she could never give hers to me. And I have to accept it. I feel this song is helping me understand that now. Thanks you for the song. You guys are awesome.
I know you may never see this, but this is the first song that actually describes what I cant seem to put into words. I've been in a dark hole for about 3 years now and this song helps me so much, so thank you Citizen Soldier, you have no clue how appreciative I am.

I too have had suicidal thoughts. You guys are not alone. If anyone else here has had thoughts of suicide, know that we are survivors and I encourage you to keep going.
Thanks for sharing that 🖤
I'm a survivor of 45 attempts and after I found "Would Anyone Care" I kept fighting
this came at the perfect moment... "if i break down this time, hope you know i tried."
i literally felt every word in the deepest of my soul. i've found new hope to stay alive in this song. so, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. ❤❤❤
Louise Hobbelen love seeing these connections being made. Hope things get better for you 🖤
I hope you all get trough the night.
I found myself in this song. I feel like there's now someone who understands. Thank you.
Zodiac_Lover 12 you are so welcome. Thanks for giving it a chance 🖤🤘🏻

@Ender3667 thanks🙃
I understand it can be hard some times
You're not alone soldier we're all in this together
I find myself listening to more and more of your music after discovering it accidentally.
Listened to this on repeat not gunna lie lmao, it's amazing.
Kaiden Ring thank you so much. The support means a lot 🖤
i found citizen soldier through my friends playlist and ive been listening to most of their songs on loop since then
Best. Band. Ever.
This song...just made me cry, thank u, this is why bands saves lives 😭😭💕
We don't save lives, we inspire people to find the strength inside them to save themselves
Citizen Soldier so true 😭❤️ but still thank u😭❤️
How you connect with others, not just me, but with soooo many others is what makes you guys so lovable. Your music, the emotion through singing...literally EVERYTHING. I just want to say thank you for giving guys like me something to relate to. You guys are awesome!
Look2TheSky101 that’s so kind of you to say. Connection is everything. Thanks for your amazing support 🖤🤘🏻
“These thought won’t rest I can’t forget I overthink until I’m sick” I have cried to this part so many times but I always try again in the same toxic relationship
Stay strong friend 💜;
speechless... replay button...
Thank you so much! Enjoy 🖤
Finally someone that can express what it really feels like inside my head when the anxiety takes over. Thank you so much.
AEilleenH so glad you feel it speaks for you. We are rooting for you 🖤🤘🏻
This stuff gets real, especially when you're thousands of miles from home on deployment. Me and the entire division, when we get web access, this is one of those things we think about, the "can we still do this" as we finally read the hundreds of messages from our wives, our parents, our friends. And we find in each other that those messages are what we wanna go home to, fight through every day to see those people that remind us we got something to go back to. So a big thanks to CS for the music y'all continue to put out.
Bryce Stephenson thank you for your service. We are honored that our music has helped at all. Sending tons of love to you and your family 🖤🤘🏻
They didn't notice I was crying
They didn't notice I was sad
They didn't notice I was tired
They didn't notice I was alone.
They didn't notice I was depressed
They didn't notice I was suicidal
They didn't notice I was actually trying to make other people smile.
They did notice my failing grades
They did notice my unattractive
They did notice the mean side of me
They did notice all of my mistakes
They did notice all of my flaws
they noticed all the bad things about me but they never try to get a good look at me and say oh your so smart oh your so funny your so perfect:(
This is so true...
Facts
Don't worry i notice you for the good and kind person you are
And thank you for your comment it's nice to know I'm not alone 😃
I know the feeling.
No matter what I will be with you the entire time
I opened TH-cam and this was under my suggestions. I am so happy that I clicked on this song, it really hit me and brought some thins to my attention.
Your life could end at any moment, when your least expecting it. Try to always live your life at the fullest!!
Reed Weiand such wise words. Love it. Thanks for giving us a chance 🖤
Citizen Soldier No, thank you for letting me know, I have a second chance. I’ve listened to multiple of your songs, and they all really made me thing twice about everything. Thank you!
💙💓💓💓💛🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💞💞💞🧡♥️💓💛💚💙💜🖤💞❤️☺️😊amen love each day like it's our last. Keep Fighting hard 💪💪
@@PsychicPhoenixAngel1111 This comment makes us think you knew about "Sacred" before it was released...
I can just imagine Chester (Linkin Park) singing y’all’s songs and god the image is amazing-
Rip Chester
But really good song!
So glad you liked the song. RIP chester
Wait who's chester- and linkin park?...
@@Nocteul Chester is a singer in the band Linkin Park. Chester took his own life, that's why he is a legend and many people miss him. Linkin Park is an american rock band. Some songs from them are "Numb", "In The End", "What I've Done", "Papercut", "Breaking The Habit", etc. From what I've listened to, the band mostly plays emotional songs or songs about struggles in life.
@@violet7639 Oh, thanks
Wait, HE DIED WHAT!?!? Rest in peace
your guy's song always makes me cry I feel an inner deep connection within and makes me sad.
Hopefully it validates you instead of just making you sad :/
I been struggling with some things in my life but hearing this song is somehow bringing tears to my eyes. Especially with the lyric '' My mind is such a mess '' . This is a amazing song
Holy hell....I’ve never heard something that said my exact thoughts and feelings as much as this did.
We're all in this together. Glad you can relate!
This song is really my life at the moment. Many people lost due to some drugs and such. I feel their weight on my shoulders and the rest of this burning hole also called planet.
It's been a very hard period in my life. Due to some circumstances in my past I can't cry anymore and I wish sometimes I still could. And this song is the closest I have ever been to cry the last 20 years. Love you guys and I will keep supporting you guys!
So sorry to hear what you have been through. You are so strong. Sending tons of love your way
When I heard the preview, I was overjoyed. The song's here and it did not disappoint. The song shares a wonderful sentiment that we all sometimes struggle with and this song helps ease the knowledge of that burden. I love your songs and I look forward to more of them.
Aeternum Vale what beautiful insight. Thank you sharing that, understanding what we do, and supporting us 🖤
I randomly heard "Pretend my pain away" on TikTok this morning and now I'm obsessed with every song you ever released. ❤️
I actually wanna sing this to a friend that relates to this, she always feels dragged down so I'm glad I found this song again
So glad it helps 🖤🤘🏻🙏🏻
So, my boyfriend who is a huge fan of Citizen Soldier decided to have me listen to this song, saying that he thought I would like it. I wound up crying my eyes out the moment I heard it, and it takes a LOT to move me to tears. He asked me why I was crying and if I was okay. I said to him 'I feel like this just about every day of my life, and it's amazing to finally hear a song that validates how much emotional pain someone can and is willing to go through.'
You guys have become the band I listen to the most. Your lyrics are so deep and meaningful. I’ve dealt with all of this just like millions have. We are not alone in this. We are all here for each other, we know what you are going through. Love all of you.
Appreciate you so much 🖤🙏🏻
If you're reading this, God has plans for you. The plans he has for you may not seem like the plans you're making for yourself, so therefore, you may not agree with them 100%. Just remember that God loves you wether you're a believer or not. There is still someone who cares about you. Wether you're going through depression, PTSD, or any other mental health issue, you will be prayed for. Scripture says that we must love one another unconditionally and it also says that we should not listen to word of man, but to the word of God. As you're reading this, I want you to know that no matter where you are in life, God is standing by your side.
This song helped me get through my first anxiety attack a few months ago. I had been under so much stress that has built up over this past year and the only things that have helped was the music that you make and that I’ve had one person here for me the whole time even though he’s half an hour away from where I live. I tried to tell my dad about the anxiety attack but he just said that I just spooked myself somehow even though at least 3 or 4 adults at my school told me it was an anxiety attack. The one person that I talk to all the time has helped me stay happy since then and I don’t know what I’d do without him if he were to turn his back on me because I’ve told him so much and I don’t think I’ve even told my best friend about half the things I’ve told him.
Oh wow, I swear a song has never made me this emotional. This is just absolutely amazing, the lyrics, the music, the timing, everything.
"If I break down this time, hope you know I tried,"
Within 35 seconds I find my favorite line and get hit with feels.
Lil SadiGirl I’m glad you felt it. Much love to you friend 🖤
So much emotion in their voice its amazing. Makes the song 10x better.
Appreciate that 🖤
@@CitizenSoldier Oh wow I've been notices
I listen to all of your music and it truly helps me through thank you for what you do your lyrics cut so deep and when I listen to your music I don't feel so alone! please never stop doing what you do
This song is amazing, getting better and better. Two thumbs up for Ctizen Soldier.
Erg Polilo! Thanks 🖤
This song S C R E A M S to me & most of those ready to just give up! & when you're fighting to stay alive for someone else (kids, parents, friends) it makes it so much harder. Finally I can see someone else feels the same & I'm truly not alone ♡
I'm praying for you miss Cassandra~ keep fighting...🙏
Please keep fighting miss Cassandra 💌
When I saw the title I was like "oh neat" but as I listened this song nearly brought me to tears. It must suck feeling like your on the edge and no one notices or cares especially when your in the music industry. All everyone really cares about Is the music no one thinks of the artists who write these songs and what really goes on backstage or at home or on tour. All the documentrys we see always show the happy side of artists. I feel like if EVERYONE and i mean EVERYONE around the world heard this it could really bring to light the problems a lot of artists struggle with. Telling us there struggling. They want us to be happy but at the same time there not making themselves happy. If everyone in the world heard this maybe just maybe we could bring to light a serious issue with how the music industry works
FNAF GAMER 101 plays really great insights friend. We totally agree with you. So glad you connected with the song and get the message. Thanks for giving us a chance🖤
@@CitizenSoldier thank you for agreeing. I listen to alot of other bands who have had artist in the band end there lives because no one hears them. Its incredibly unfair that it has to happen. You make us happy and a lot of times we want to return the favor we just don't know how. When I hear songs like this it really hits home and It puts me In artist shoes. Its not our happiness that matters it's yours. If you love what you do for a living and you love the thrill of what your making then your in the right place. Every artist gets hung up on making us happy making songs that make us want more. They don't think of doing something that'll make them happy. A song they love. Yes we might not like it yes we might hate it but as long as the band has fun with the song that's what matters. As long as you have fun then you know you made the right decision
@@CitizenSoldier and your welcome. Just a fan saying the truth about the problem plaguing the music industry that's all ❤❤👍
Dont ever let go of the light citizen soldier. I cant explain how much I value your music I dont really relate to any kind of music but this. I'm sure I'm not the only one either. Stay strong and tall we all will be alright.
Woah thanks so much for those words Alicia 🖤 Appreciate you
@@CitizenSoldier I am a huge fan listening to all your songs daily. My life hasn't been the best growing up and still hasn't. But your songs touch pieces of my heart and soul and It makes me feel not so alone anymore in the world. After all the best gifts in life is those that dont cost anything at all.
I love you guys and your music! This song is just so beautiful
Redburst thank you so much. Much love 🖤
This song describes me so much every time I listen to it I cry i feel like I never have anyone to talk to and when i do they cant see the pain im in they dont understand you guys do amazing work and make me feel loved keep up the good work
kamryn dragneel so glad you feel loved, cause you are. 🖤 have you heard the rest of RELENTLESS yet?
This is so much my life thank you 🙏🏻 for putting the words together you speak for me thank you god bless you and your work ur music is amazing wonderful blessed amen 🙏🏻
It's incredible how a song can make you fell less alone. Thank you
Usually my own thoughts break me as I listen to songs but this one was purely the words speaking to me...speaking directly to who I am..to what I am going through.. God...damn I need you
If you are struggling please don't hesitate to reach out to those you trust or consider seeing a therapist. You are not alone in this. Life is worth the pain we go through so stay strong. I wish you all the best
@@TK-uz4ts thankyou for your kindness☺
Another banger. Whomever disliked this video wouldn't know good music if it kicked them in the shin...
Haha thanks Ben! Appreciate the passion 👊
I'm assuming it was a Bieber fan... or worse 😰
Lotus Faery lol yeah. Most Bieber fans hate this great music
XDD true that ben, true that
@@lotusfaery877 by worst do you mean nickleback
I use music to Express my thoughts....the thoughts I'm too scared to Express myself...and this song expresses them perfect.....this song resonates within my soul... it describes what I feel constantly
We're happy you and so many other can relate! Thanks for the listen
Please don't hide you. Feel free to express yourself. You have so much inside waiting to come out. Your emotions and feelings, ideas and all of you is worth expressing, worth being heard. Write again, and if you felt ever like writing a book-please do, I feel you'll be very successful in that!! Sending you encouragement, inspiration, and lots of love.
This song is so relatable to me.
I can’t even explain how closely this song resonates with me
Thanks 🖤
I've listened to this song a million times, and once again, it hits so close to home. Life is getting more stressful, and people are dropping even more weights on my shoulders, so I get the feeling. Great job guys. You're all amazing
Paige Mills the stress is real. We are right there with you. Stay strong 🖤
