Bro, I'm 42 and they're still my rock. Life's tough these days man, find happiness wherever it speaks to you. These guys SCREAM to me when i need it. 🤷🏻♂️
There was a brilliant comment here once which explained this song so well and it's too bad it's not in the top comments anymore. This song/video is about this boy who is doing the same thing over and over. Even if it's harmful for him he can't stop doing it. The aged man is the future boy who ends up all alone and dies in the end, because he wasn't able to change. Personally I find the idea brilliant because change can be so hard sometimes. We tend to do things over and over again just because we're afraid of change, even if we know we need to change. We're weird creatures sometimes :)
Just amazing comment brilliant idea i could relate to this song because i smoke over and over again and i listened to this song and it made me change and im proud of it
VirtualLionelMessi you've ressurected the brilliance. And you've made a point....a pointed aspect of our fallen human nature. We don't just do the harmful.... we also don't do the good. And many times we watch ourselves doing... or not doing... almost helpless. Almost. It's a thought to consider when we come face to face with handicap people who often times are at the mercy of their syndrome. Our excuse is far more flimsy. But there is hope! Romans 7
The most powerful line in this song is a simple one "I get it no I get it, can't help those who don't wannabe helped" ive been in that position of refusing help now the pain of seeing those who don't wanna help themselves is heart breaking I lost a baby when I was 19 I genuinely believed that would be the end of me, I wasn't seen by friends for months this song is so deep for so many reasons
"End Of Me" I took some time away For understanding of what brought us here today Oh, you'll be the end of me I'm never happy like we were happy I'm never sad like we were sad Oh, you'll be the end of me You know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gone and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be 'Cause Oh, you'll be the end of me I know I wasn't perfect, but I kept trying Till I forgot why I stayed Oh, you'll be the end of me Yeah we lost all meaning We lost the magic So good luck to you on your way Oh, you'll be the end of me You know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gone and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be 'Cause oh, you'll be the end of me (you'll be the end of me) I get it, no, I get it Gave more than I took back, oh well (took back, oh well) I get it, no, I get it Can't help those who don't wanna be helped You know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gone and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be 'Cause Oh, you'll be the end of me You'll be the end of me...
I honestly cant stop listening to this song. My best friend, Andrew committed suicide recently and this was his favorite song.I have always loved this song, and I showed him A Day To Remember, but now this song has a deeper emotional connection to me. Rest in Peac, Drew {6.24.15}
Been listing to this song since I was 14 now I’m 27 and it still has the same damage just in a different way. Different trauma.. I’m not sure, wow how time flys
People get so upset when bands let their sound evolve over time. It's still cool listening to the old stuff we all fell in love with, but that doesn't mean you can't still fall in love with the new stuff. We expect these bands to just to keep screaming about being angry, but they grow up just like us. The songs become more reflective and deeper, but we can still relate even though we aren't teens listening to them anymore. This has happened to almost every band I listened to back in high school, but I'm glad they are all still making music and living their dreams.
People fear change. Plain and simple. As fans, we either need to embrace the change, quit listening, or moan about the past. Im a casual fan of ADTR, so maybe I can't say much. But what you say about bands growing up is true.
Zach Dillon it is. Some people can't embrace it. Many people also don't the like the new sound of the band "The Offspring", Dexter Holland, the singer, was with the band when they formed in '85 when be was 20. Now he's 49 and of coarse him and his band's music isn't going to sound the same. And as a quote from one of The Offspring's new songs "Those days go by, and we all start again. What we had and what we lost, it's all memories in the wind. Those days go by, and we all start again."
I've said it once, and i'm gonna say it again: Let people interpret the song how they want. There's no right or wrong way to perceive the song. Everyone will look at it differently. That's the beauty in the world. Everyone has their own opinion. If you don't like someone elses view on the song, dont bash them for it, just move along and listen to the amazing music that ADTR has put here for us all to enjoy. Thanks for reading, if you did. Bye :)
Most meaningful comment about music thx for posting this comment to help people understand that difference is bad and people have different interest and that nobody has to be the same thx man sorry this is late about 6 years
It can pertain to any situation that fits the description. That’s the beauty of music. Art even. You interpret it based on what is going on/has happened in your life.
Spotify literally had this as my number one listened to song for years now.. It is in the thousands and for good reason.. I probably watched this video on repeat for hours straight while blackout drunk crying my eyes out.. I am now 8 months sober and still enjoy this song just as much.. In a better place now though! ❤️
That's fucking awesome man congratulations! Just keep taking it one day at a time - I'm rooting for you 🙂 Music is so fucking powerful and can truly save us and make us feel understood in our darkest moments when nothing else can
I sat there and played from 3:00 to 3:03 over and over again, remembering my friend that would smile to hide her pain, and deny all evidence that would show that she wasn't okay...
@@PhoenixAscending I KNOW THE BOIS GOT MY BACK! I’ve met a lovely lady and she’s my girlfriend now!! I’m much happier than I’ve ever been my dudes!! #ItGetsBetter
Everyone has their own story about this song/video but for me.... I literally lived this music video. From 12-19 my mom drank like a fish to pass out after my Gma died. My grandpa,sister, Dad and aunt all left but forgot me in the process. I considered suicide hundreds of times, begged god every night to not let me wake up the next day. I have a few scars. Some from myself and some from her. I felt so alone and forgotten, so much so that as an adult I can’t be alone, I literally hate it. She attempted suicide. And that part of the video where the paramedics rush in really hits home because I remember that, I felt that. Some days it feels like I made it all up, and some days the wounds feel as fresh as they were then. It still really messes with me from time to time. Now I’m 27 married to a beautiful woman with 2 lovely children. Life couldn’t be much better. Like I said it seems so distant at times, and other days it feels like I’m still stuck. I survived. I pulled myself out of the deepest of depression, and honestly now a days no one even has an idea of what I went thru because I don’t show it. I’m happy and smiling all day. I’m positive constantly all because I refuse to be anywhere near the place I was then. This video really hits home and the song as well. It reminds of the bad days but also reminds me I survived because I was meant to do something meaningful in life.
so dramatic ! your words left me speechless. i mean i got so much in my life which i'm not happy about either but to be honest my troubles are nothing as compare to you. i must thank to the every God.
I agree with the person below, love does make you go blind. & i never knew or acknowledged how blind i went until i was sitting in a dark place and realized i gave up my career, myself, dignity, confidence to try to make something unfixable work. Sometimes it really is best to let it go. I think everyone thinks that "they're the one", that they can't bear a life without the other person. but things change man. They truly do. & it's not until you find someone else that the feelings grow just as strong. What i'm trying to say is, if you're ever in a position where you know it's not healthy for you, respect yourself enough to walk away. It'll hurt tremendously the first few days but one day you wake up and feel free, no resentment, no love, no bitterness, just free. That day was today for me. & AdTR helps alot in realizing and coping ❤
Cindy. Recently I looked over my life since nearly dying in hospital, realising the light was dimming the more I remained stuck away from everyone as I took my rage out on the staff after four months of being at rock bottom without tasting fresh air then just before my fifth month they let me go and those moments where I held my family brought my light back. To cut a long story short. Find your light and fight like hell to keep it from going out. Stay tough
ADTR - End of Me (Lyrics) I took some time away For understanding of what brought us here today Oh, you'll be the end of me I'm never happy like we were happy I'm never sad like we were sad Oh, you'll be the end of me You know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gone and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be Oh, you'll be the end of me I know I wasn't perfect, but I kept trying Till I forgot why I stayed Oh, you'll be the end of me Yeah we lost all meaning We lost the magic So good luck to you on your way Oh, you'll be the end of me Ya know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gone and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be Oh, you'll be the end of me You'll be the end of me I get it, no, I get it Gave more than I took back, oh, well (so back away) I get it, no, I get it Can't help those who don't wanna be helped Ya know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gonna and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be Oh, you'll be the end of me The end of me
this video explains the way I feel and what I've been through almost perfectly, I don't cry anymore. but every time I see it I want to.. I'm in foster care because this is practically what happened. I'm 17, it's almost over. although I don't have anyone anymore left in my family to go to, and I'll be on my own, I live to make others happy, and I enjoy doing so. :)
I took some time away For understanding of what brought us here today Oh, you'll be the end of me I'm never happy like we were happy I'm never sad like we were sad Oh, you'll be the end of me You know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gone and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be Oh, you'll be the end of me I know I wasn't perfect, but I kept trying Till I forgot why I stayed Oh, you'll be the end of me Yeah we lost all meaning We lost the magic So good luck to you on your way Oh, you'll be the end of me Ya know me all too well And I can't suppress the memories You're gone and I can tell That I've lost more than you'll ever see Don't say that it's not fair That you're not the person you wanna be Oh, you'll be the end of me You'll be the end of me I get it, no, I get it Gave more than I took back, oh well (so back away!)

I found what director have said about this music video: "End Of Me by A Day To Remember is a dark video about the two male members of a family dealing the loss of the female figure in their life. Director Shane Drake tells the story of a teenage son who has taken on the burden of responsibility for the family since his mother left. He spends most of his time alone and his only interaction with anyone is when he has to take the lit cigarette out of his sleeping fathers hand, taking a drag for himself before putting it out. He takes out his frustration of the walls, appearing to count the days since his mom left by drawing X marks all over his room. As the song intensifies, his emotions boil over, and he begins the react more violently to the situation by taking a baseball bat to his bed. All of this builds to an unexpected twist ending thats super fun to see people try to figure out in the comments on TH-cam."
Shit I still listen to this guys since 2008 they have been getting me through the tough times. It's weird, and don't laugh,, but I feel like I'm growing with the bands music like the rate of my emotional growth is parallel to the maturing of their sound and lyrics. I love this band. McKinnon is definitely and idol of mine.
So it's been six years since this song came out and I just found it. I've been a fan of them since 14 and I am 30. This literally is how I feel about my relationship with my father. He beat people, attempted to take life in general (others, himself, animals...) But he kept swearing he loved all of us. I let him go at 24. When this song came out. If I didn't he would have been the end of me. I love him so much. It hurts every day that I can't talk to him. But if I do I'll fall back into being under his dangerous thumb. I can't do it again.
listened to this back in 2014 and loved it, complettely forgot this song existed till now.. depression hit me so hard, finally realised the meaning behind this video and song, I could relate. Life sure is a pain.
My wife listens to this song on repeat right now. We may be separated, but I’ll always hold her love with me. Good bye Laura. I hope our paths cross again.
I never thought ADTR had it in them to make such an incredible video. Not a criticism of them, i've always liked these guys, but their videos have always been on the silly side. I'm glad they've made a video like this. One of the best music videos i've ever seen.
They've made at least two others. Not trying to be rude, but there are a couple more. Have Faith In Me is one and All Signs Point to Lauderdale was another. This one spoke so much more than the others though.
my god, so much feeling to this song. i bet it was hard for the singer to reflect this memory in his life. I'm watching and almost cried for the guy.. damn dude, keep strong
I come back to this song every now and then. It reminds me that I have to keep going, its the only way things will change. I left my home a year ago. I have an amazing family and friends down home, but the past kept bringing me down.
This video reminds me so much of my father. He developed epilepsy within the last 7 years partly due to alcoholism. I tried for years to get him to get help and change but he had a lot of demons he was fighting. He was doing better when his best friend Maria came to live with him but when she died he just spiraled. He loved music and used to play guitar a lot when I was small. He passed away about 3 weeks ago from a seizure. He was 50. RIP Dad. I'm going to pick the guitar back up and keep learning for you.
I pray that anyone of whom stumbles across this video decides to take a stand to change their lives. Even if you are doing great, push it to the limit and ensure that you live this life to the fullest in whatever way you percieve that to be. Spread happiness and understanding, use logic and never give up!
This video is awesome. Perfect for the song. I think it just means that our biggest mistakes are the chances we don't take. God only promises us today, so live your life to the full with no regrets.
wow such an incredible video. It really made me think of this song in a different way. I know there are different opinions of what the music video is about, but i just wanted to give my opinion... I think it is about a son and father who are dealing with the mother leaving them. The Xs on the wall mark the number of days she has been gone. The son and the father are living in this mindset of grief and sadness and cannot find a way to escape which is symbolized through the house. The son is able to let out his anger and frustration and eventually allows himself to heal."I can't suppress the memories.." When he lets himself feel the emotions he has been holding onto he "moves on". His dying could be a metaphor for letting his depression die and starting to live again. When he leaves the house the father senses he is gone and looks for him. When he is doing so he remembers that he has to live for his son and lets his depression die too. They climb the stairs together to start the journey into their new life. The scars on the hands show they were both hurt in the same way. By feeling rejected by their mother and wife. And the son scrubbing the stairs symbolizes how healing is sometimes a hard and grueling process. Sometimes it can seem impossible, but you will get through it and you will see the light again.
This song literally has deep meanings. I have watched this video like so many times but damn , i still love this video and this song. One of their best works out there #adtrrocks!
Maybe the stair scrubbing is just trying to show that he did the same things over and over in his life, things that didn't make him him happy. The love of his life left him because of him never changing his ways. The X's on the wall are days that he wasted in his life doing things that served no purpose. He knew from an early age that he was wasting his life but never/could never change. He finally *realized* that he had wasted his whole life, which is when he "meets" his younger self, and he committed suicide thinking there was no where to go but down..... as in down the negative stairwell that he had been working on his whole life? Just my thoughts.
Maybe it was that he was reflecting on his past while he was asleep. Well. Dying*. But yeah, possibly it was that he was dying and realizing his bad choices as a younger person and reflecting on all the things he lost. Then when he gets the bat and stuff, it was him mentally taking out his anger as to what he was doing with himself. The X's could be how long he was trapped in his thoughts. Idunno. I guess the thing about these videos is you take away from it what you feel you relate to. There's never really a right answer :P
Majority people seem to be interpreting this song with there tragic heart break stories and exes, which is fine, but to me this is basically about wasting your life away and never stepping up to change.
Could be both. Such as letting a breakup consume you to the point that you never move on and thus waste your life away instead of accepting change and moving on.
Yes I perceived it to myself as stepping up and changing yourself, being who you truly are and stopping the bullshit because you only have one life to live and you don't want to live it the wrong way.
if the song made you cry, that's because you can probably relate. if someone wronged you, don't waste tears on those people. Someone out there will appreciate you.
What scares me the most about growing up is that ill make mistakes and end up like this and look back when im 30 or 40 and realize I wasted my life. Im valedictorian of my senior class so far but what does it mean. It really doesnt mean much 5 to 10 years down the road. I have some much hope and dreams I just hope I find the right way to live it all before I die. Being 17 sucks.
take it a day at a time my friend. Take small steps and set smaller goals that will eventually lead you towards your bigger picture. But don't dwell on not being a success yet. 17 is the perfect time to still be thinking about where you're going.
In the end we only regret the chances we didn't take. Live the life you want to live, if you don't then it's not your life. I'm in the same boat my friend. I feel the same way, even four years later. You never shake that feeling, but don't feed that doubt. I believe in you.
The best thing you can do is attempt to follow your dreams no matter how risky they are. I'm in the same situation you are in, I just graduated a week or 2 ago and I'm going to follow my dream of being a movie director no matter how risky it is. I COULD get a safe medium wage paying job and I COULD live my life not worrying too much about losing my job but then I'd always be wondering what if I had followed my dream. Our existence is so small in the universe, why attempt to live "safe" if your just going to regret it and not be happy
Personally, I love this album more than their older stuff. I like hearing Jeremy's normal singing voice and I also like hearing them sing about things in their lives.
This song reminds me of when I was obsessed with somebody important I knew. He found out one little lie I told him, but it was a pretty substantial one due to the circumstances. I wanted to die when he basically made it clear that (unless I attend his events and pretend to be someone I'm not, which is worse,) I'll never see or talk to him ever again. He was a close friend of 3 years. So that, being found extremely close to death from a poor choice I made a couple days after that, 2 of my other friends dying in the same week as that, and realizing how much I've squandered my time and money since graduating high school years early made suicidal matters more intense. But each day, with every waking hour, I'm striving harder and harder to make my time important and meaningful because I'm too young to give up and die now. As much as I love this song, I refuse to let someone who, in retrospect, wasn't as good of a person as I made him out to be, be the end of me. I've let go of my obsession, now time to let go of the rest of this depression.
I remember going thru a super hard issue for a period of time. I thought I'd never get out of my head but I worked hard to distract myself and get thru each individual day. Eventually life started to feel more and more normal till I basically forgot I ever had a problem. Also, idk if ur religious, but praying and asking God for help really got me thru. I felt like He was the only chance I had of escaping my problem. So there's a few suggestions for you. I promise everything will get better. I'll pray for you :)
Well glad you found out your friend was a total jerk before investing to much time on him. Having to deal with the loss of two of your friends must have been extremely difficult. I'm glad to hear that you are recovering from your depression, surround yourself with people who love you and aren't going to drag you down. You have been through some tough times and yet you remain strong and continue to push forward. Hope all goes well in your life, keep on fighting, the best is yet to come.
Im Beyond hooked on this song... I have always been a ADTR fan.. but this song just hits SOOO DEEP.. I straight cried the first time listening.. Like this song is so POWERFUL... #ADTR #ForLife
A lot of people see the video as the man's son but I think it's the same person, and the woman that left him was his wife. After he dies, he's wearing a white shirt just like the teen boy and they have the same scar, so he was looking back at himself from a long time ago and now.
+AlphaLeader772 oh I just looked up the meaning behind and ADTR said that was what it was about don't remember the source so who cares I think the meaning of the song is more important anyway
You guys need to understand that relationships under 18 hardly ever work out. I have been through it.. please do not worry everything will eventually happen in time to come. :)
Basically the meaning to the song is that this guy loved this girl and he tried so hard with the relationship and she leaves him. So basically the way the video explains it..he wasted he life away depressed until he eventually died.

right, thats why that guy just keeps smoking
VirtualLionelMessi you've ressurected the brilliance. And you've made a point....a pointed aspect of our fallen human nature.
We don't just do the harmful.... we also don't do the good. And many times we watch ourselves doing... or not doing... almost helpless.
Almost.
It's a thought to consider when we come face to face with handicap people who often times are at the mercy of their syndrome.
Our excuse is far more flimsy.
But there is hope!

Thanks awesome that the feeling and what the lyrics mean are the same
“Don’t say that it’s not fair you’re not the person you wanna be...” hits hard.
Не один я такой, кто зашел послушать эту песню в 2020.
The most powerful line in this song is a simple one "I get it no I get it, can't help those who don't wannabe helped" ive been in that position of refusing help now the pain of seeing those who don't wanna help themselves is heart breaking I lost a baby when I was 19 I genuinely believed that would be the end of me, I wasn't seen by friends for months this song is so deep for so many reasons
I could listen to this song on repeat all day and never get sick of it.
That’s exactly what I’ve been doing! It’s addicting and one of the best songs.
Listen to Miracle. It will blow your mind
Same
This band will forever have a special place in my heart
"End Of Me"
I took some time away
For understanding of what brought us here today
Oh, you'll be the end of me
I'm never happy like we were happy
I'm never sad like we were sad
Oh, you'll be the end of me
You know me all too well
And I can't suppress the memories
You're gone and I can tell
That I've lost more than you'll ever see
Don't say that it's not fair
That you're not the person you wanna be
'Cause Oh, you'll be the end of me
I know I wasn't perfect, but I kept trying
Till I forgot why I stayed
Oh, you'll be the end of me
Yeah we lost all meaning
We lost the magic
So good luck to you on your way
Oh, you'll be the end of me
You know me all too well
And I can't suppress the memories
You're gone and I can tell
That I've lost more than you'll ever see
Don't say that it's not fair
That you're not the person you wanna be
'Cause oh, you'll be the end of me (you'll be the end of me)
I get it, no, I get it
Gave more than I took back, oh well (took back, oh well)
I get it, no, I get it
Can't help those who don't wanna be helped
You know me all too well
And I can't suppress the memories
You're gone and I can tell
That I've lost more than you'll ever see
Don't say that it's not fair
That you're not the person you wanna be
'Cause Oh, you'll be the end of me
You'll be the end of me...
I honestly cant stop listening to this song. My best friend, Andrew committed suicide recently and this was his favorite song.I have always loved this song, and I showed him A Day To Remember, but now this song has a deeper emotional connection to me. Rest in Peac, Drew {6.24.15}

That's scary to me cause my exes name was Andrew and he told me one time he wanted to commit suicide because of me and I cried for days
I'm so sorry you had to hear that. That's really heartbreaking D': ThatColoradoGirl(Vail)
I'm sorry that happened :(
He passed on my birthday 2 years ago.... My best friend showed adtr to me that day..... Ouch
I cannot stop listening to this song...
Same man
Jack Kissinger The teen in the video, Arthur is a good friend of mine. He's really talented.
Jack Kissinger I love this song too
+Jack Kissinger same...

One of those "Take an aimless drive on a dark rainy night" kind of songs. I love it
Destroys me everytime, This is one of the best ADTR songs IMO
Yes this one and “You be tails I’ll be sonic” is mint it’s Doomer generation material before doomer was a thing, relatable content down to a T
Been listing to this song since I was 14 now I’m 27 and it still has the same damage just in a different way. Different trauma.. I’m not sure, wow how time flys
@@Jbrowbishh yeah same, crazy how fast time goes by
People get so upset when bands let their sound evolve over time. It's still cool listening to the old stuff we all fell in love with, but that doesn't mean you can't still fall in love with the new stuff. We expect these bands to just to keep screaming about being angry, but they grow up just like us. The songs become more reflective and deeper, but we can still relate even though we aren't teens listening to them anymore. This has happened to almost every band I listened to back in high school, but I'm glad they are all still making music and living their dreams.

Some people just can't expect that and are total dicks about it..
I agree. 👌
People fear change. Plain and simple. As fans, we either need to embrace the change, quit listening, or moan about the past. Im a casual fan of ADTR, so maybe I can't say much. But what you say about bands growing up is true.
Zach Dillon it is. Some people can't embrace it. Many people also don't the like the new sound of the band "The Offspring", Dexter Holland, the singer, was with the band when they formed in '85 when be was 20. Now he's 49 and of coarse him and his band's music isn't going to sound the same. And as a quote from one of The Offspring's new songs "Those days go by, and we all start again. What we had and what we lost, it's all memories in the wind. Those days go by, and we all start again."
And either way, this is one of the few soft songs on common courtesy. The rest was amazing, even this is good
I've said it once, and i'm gonna say it again: Let people interpret the song how they want. There's no right or wrong way to perceive the song. Everyone will look at it differently. That's the beauty in the world. Everyone has their own opinion. If you don't like someone elses view on the song, dont bash them for it, just move along and listen to the amazing music that ADTR has put here for us all to enjoy. Thanks for reading, if you did. Bye :)
Most meaningful comment about music thx for posting this comment to help people understand that difference is bad and people have different interest and that nobody has to be the same thx man sorry this is late about 6 years
It can pertain to any situation that fits the description. That’s the beauty of music. Art even. You interpret it based on what is going on/has happened in your life.
good comment, some people just have to use their ego to say so-so is wrong/right, music is art, and art is in the eye of the beholder.
Couldn't have said it better myself
And that is what makes art art. We forget that a lot
Man this song is literally one of the best of all time for me. The feeling the realness the emotion the hurt. I love this song
same...just love it..!!
🙂
Spotify literally had this as my number one listened to song for years now.. It is in the thousands and for good reason.. I probably watched this video on repeat for hours straight while blackout drunk crying my eyes out.. I am now 8 months sober and still enjoy this song just as much.. In a better place now though! ❤️
That's fucking awesome man congratulations! Just keep taking it one day at a time - I'm rooting for you 🙂 Music is so fucking powerful and can truly save us and make us feel understood in our darkest moments when nothing else can
The story behind this one is awesome! ADTR!
what's the behind it ?
neverdia1 its hard to explain but the kid is dead the whole time if that helps a bit
One of their best songs to date. So refreshing to know they're from Ocala, FL - right down the road from where I live.
The best song they've ever had in my opinion
I sat there and played from 3:00 to 3:03 over and over again, remembering my friend that would smile to hide her pain, and deny all evidence that would show that she wasn't okay...
Cheer up, girl! BTW nice photo you got.
Thanks. I like yours to!
sandun rashmika :) I love seeing Life Is Strange lovers! (I love her to)
the feelings :')
+Paula C. that game made me cry like a little bitch
My wife is divorcing me.. and immediately I go
To ADTR. I’ve cried a lot of times today, including now.
How are you feeling now ? Is it better after 4 month ?
Hang in there brother
@@PhoenixAscending I KNOW THE BOIS GOT MY BACK! I’ve met a lovely lady and she’s my girlfriend now!! I’m much happier than I’ve ever been my dudes!! #ItGetsBetter
@@MyShadowsDie that's great my man 👍
@@MyShadowsDie damn, that was quick
Everyone has their own story about this song/video but for me.... I literally lived this music video. From 12-19 my mom drank like a fish to pass out after my Gma died. My grandpa,sister, Dad and aunt all left but forgot me in the process. I considered suicide hundreds of times, begged god every night to not let me wake up the next day. I have a few scars. Some from myself and some from her. I felt so alone and forgotten, so much so that as an adult I can’t be alone, I literally hate it. She attempted suicide. And that part of the video where the paramedics rush in really hits home because I remember that, I felt that. Some days it feels like I made it all up, and some days the wounds feel as fresh as they were then. It still really messes with me from time to time. Now I’m 27 married to a beautiful woman with 2 lovely children. Life couldn’t be much better. Like I said it seems so distant at times, and other days it feels like I’m still stuck. I survived. I pulled myself out of the deepest of depression, and honestly now a days no one even has an idea of what I went thru because I don’t show it. I’m happy and smiling all day. I’m positive constantly all because I refuse to be anywhere near the place I was then. This video really hits home and the song as well. It reminds of the bad days but also reminds me I survived because I was meant to do something meaningful in life.
so dramatic ! your words left me speechless. i mean i got so much in my life which i'm not happy about either but to be honest my troubles are nothing as compare to you.
i must thank to the every God.
Hope you’re still thriving bro! 🙏🏼
4 years later, and i only have one question. How are you doing champ? How are your children and wife? Hope they are healthy and happy
Probably one of the deepest songs this band has ever written, which isn't a bad thing at all. Good job!
I agree with the person below, love does make you go blind. & i never knew or acknowledged how blind i went until i was sitting in a dark place and realized i gave up my career, myself, dignity, confidence to try to make something unfixable work. Sometimes it really is best to let it go. I think everyone thinks that "they're the one", that they can't bear a life without the other person. but things change man. They truly do. & it's not until you find someone else that the feelings grow just as strong. What i'm trying to say is, if you're ever in a position where you know it's not healthy for you, respect yourself enough to walk away. It'll hurt tremendously the first few days but one day you wake up and feel free, no resentment, no love, no bitterness, just free. That day was today for me. & AdTR helps alot in realizing and coping ❤
Cindy Valencia Your story
Thanks for sharing! Wise words
Cindy. Recently I looked over my life since nearly dying in hospital, realising the light was dimming the more I remained stuck away from everyone as I took my rage out on the staff after four months of being at rock bottom without tasting fresh air then just before my fifth month they let me go and those moments where I held my family brought my light back. To cut a long story short. Find your light and fight like hell to keep it from going out. Stay tough
@@lewislawrence8408 Good to hear you're doing fine now pal
Easily one of my personal favorite ADTR songs. I love the entire Common Courtesy album - A masterpiece.
this song has been on repeat for the last few days.
fml. I hope shit get a better. been struggling for to damn long.
I don't know if your still there or whatever but trust me, it gets better. hang on
Mikuo, thanks
Bro believe me everything gets better :)
Nope
Every time I hear this song, it gives me chills. This song is so bittersweet, I can feel the emotion flowing through it as it's being sung and played.
Been listening to ADTR since 1958! Hard to believe it’s been almost twenty years. I only get happier with their music. It keeps getting better.
This song is phenomenal. In my opinion, one of their best.
I fell in love with this song from the first time my ears were graced by its amazing sound.
ADTR - End of Me (Lyrics)
I took some time away
For understanding of what brought us here today
Oh, you'll be the end of me
I'm never happy like we were happy
I'm never sad like we were sad
Oh, you'll be the end of me
You know me all too well
And I can't suppress the memories
You're gone and I can tell
That I've lost more than you'll ever see
Don't say that it's not fair
That you're not the person you wanna be
Oh, you'll be the end of me
I know I wasn't perfect, but I kept trying
Till I forgot why I stayed
Oh, you'll be the end of me
Yeah we lost all meaning
We lost the magic
So good luck to you on your way
Oh, you'll be the end of me
Ya know me all too well
And I can't suppress the memories
You're gone and I can tell
That I've lost more than you'll ever see
Don't say that it's not fair
That you're not the person you wanna be
Oh, you'll be the end of me
You'll be the end of me
I get it, no, I get it
Gave more than I took back, oh, well (so back away)
I get it, no, I get it
Can't help those who don't wanna be helped
Ya know me all too well
And I can't suppress the memories
You're gonna and I can tell
That I've lost more than you'll ever see
Don't say that it's not fair
That you're not the person you wanna be
Oh, you'll be the end of me
The end of me
2019 and these guitar riffs and vocals still kill me!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤘🏻
4 years straight I listen to this song a couple of times a day. This is the song that has marked my entire life the most.
this video explains the way I feel and what I've been through almost perfectly, I don't cry anymore. but every time I see it I want to.. I'm in foster care because this is practically what happened. I'm 17, it's almost over. although I don't have anyone anymore left in my family to go to, and I'll be on my own, I live to make others happy, and I enjoy doing so. :)
You are clever man. Hope you are fine. I wish you happy life
I know that this comment is 6 years old, but I hope you found your way in life. You seem like a good person
I hope you are doing much better :)
Still with us brother?
I took some time away
For understanding of what brought us here today
Oh, you'll be the end of me
I'm never happy like we were happy
I'm never sad like we were sad
Oh, you'll be the end of me
You know me all too well
And I can't suppress the memories
You're gone and I can tell
That I've lost more than you'll ever see

:/ espererando que no seas mi final
I found what director have said about this music video:
"End Of Me by A Day To Remember is a dark video about the two male members of a family dealing the loss of the female figure in their life. Director Shane Drake tells the story of a teenage son who has taken on the burden of responsibility for the family since his mother left. He spends most of his time alone and his only interaction with anyone is when he has to take the lit cigarette out of his sleeping fathers hand, taking a drag for himself before putting it out. He takes out his frustration of the walls, appearing to count the days since his mom left by drawing X marks all over his room. As the song intensifies, his emotions boil over, and he begins the react more violently to the situation by taking a baseball bat to his bed. All of this builds to an unexpected twist ending thats super fun to see people try to figure out in the comments on TH-cam."
Shit I still listen to this guys since 2008 they have been getting me through the tough times. It's weird, and don't laugh,, but I feel like I'm growing with the bands music like the rate of my emotional growth is parallel to the maturing of their sound and lyrics. I love this band. McKinnon is definitely and idol of mine.
So it's been six years since this song came out and I just found it.
I've been a fan of them since 14 and I am 30. This literally is how I feel about my relationship with my father.
He beat people, attempted to take life in general (others, himself, animals...) But he kept swearing he loved all of us.
I let him go at 24. When this song came out. If I didn't he would have been the end of me.
I love him so much. It hurts every day that I can't talk to him. But if I do I'll fall back into being under his dangerous thumb. I can't do it again.
listened to this back in 2014 and loved it, complettely forgot this song existed till now.. depression hit me so hard, finally realised the meaning behind this video and song, I could relate. Life sure is a pain.
I’ve heard this song so many times, I listened to it just now. It’s always made sense- today it hit me- I’ve wasted my life away-
2019, still crying 🤘🏼
2021, still crying 😭
I've been waiting my whole life for a song like this.
This song still hits me deep, like a blow in the chest! Music speaks what some of us cant reveal….
Hello from Russia! This song is so awesome !
Hello from America and your comment is awesome.
klassiK Productionz ow, thanks)
Самая любимая песня уже 2 год)
да, и клип тоже.
severe anal trauma
зачем матерится-то?
All us broken people, with our broken stories and a broken song to get by with. Feels like home. Even hell can get comfy once you've settled in.
Uma das melhores musicas que já escutei em toda minha vida... obrigado!
I lost the name for this song and haven't heard it since 2014, I'm really happy I found this song again!
My wife listens to this song on repeat right now. We may be separated, but I’ll always hold her love with me. Good bye Laura. I hope our paths cross again.
I never thought ADTR had it in them to make such an incredible video. Not a criticism of them, i've always liked these guys, but their videos have always been on the silly side. I'm glad they've made a video like this. One of the best music videos i've ever seen.
They've made at least two others. Not trying to be rude, but there are a couple more. Have Faith In Me is one and All Signs Point to Lauderdale was another.
This one spoke so much more than the others though.
Chris Hailey That's true, but they're not on the same level of feels as this video.
Josh Howe also agreed lol
That is very true.
it needed to be said. ADTR is god tier, but they always put out music videos that do not do them justice. this is a complete 180 degree change.
my god, so much feeling to this song. i bet it was hard for the singer to reflect this memory in his life. I'm watching and almost cried for the guy.. damn dude, keep strong
I love the acoustic guitar at the beginning and how it sets the mood for the rest of the song. That guitar was the one thing that caught my attention.
this song literally saved my life
I come back to this song every now and then. It reminds me that I have to keep going, its the only way things will change. I left my home a year ago. I have an amazing family and friends down home, but the past kept bringing me down.
This video reminds me so much of my father. He developed epilepsy within the last 7 years partly due to alcoholism. I tried for years to get him to get help and change but he had a lot of demons he was fighting. He was doing better when his best friend Maria came to live with him but when she died he just spiraled. He loved music and used to play guitar a lot when I was small. He passed away about 3 weeks ago from a seizure. He was 50. RIP Dad. I'm going to pick the guitar back up and keep learning for you.
I pray that anyone of whom stumbles across this video decides to take a stand to change their lives. Even if you are doing great, push it to the limit and ensure that you live this life to the fullest in whatever way you percieve that to be. Spread happiness and understanding, use logic and never give up!
This video is awesome. Perfect for the song. I think it just means that our biggest mistakes are the chances we don't take. God only promises us today, so live your life to the full with no regrets.
Can't help those who don't wanna be helped. Love this song!
Such a powerful lyric
this seriously sent shivers down my spine, one of my favourites on the album, great job guys!
Why do these bastards want to make me cry.
Funny...
SAME
Danny Madrigal because they were hurt so many times and they try to help
Same bro
Bad day?
This band will never get old! I love these guys they will probably always be my favorite band.
Oh. My. God. This isn't a song, this is a masterpiece.
wow such an incredible video. It really made me think of this song in a different way. I know there are different opinions of what the music video is about, but i just wanted to give my opinion...
I think it is about a son and father who are dealing with the mother leaving them. The Xs on the wall mark the number of days she has been gone. The son and the father are living in this mindset of grief and sadness and cannot find a way to escape which is symbolized through the house. The son is able to let out his anger and frustration and eventually allows himself to heal."I can't suppress the memories.." When he lets himself feel the emotions he has been holding onto he "moves on". His dying could be a metaphor for letting his depression die and starting to live again. When he leaves the house the father senses he is gone and looks for him. When he is doing so he remembers that he has to live for his son and lets his depression die too. They climb the stairs together to start the journey into their new life. The scars on the hands show they were both hurt in the same way. By feeling rejected by their mother and wife. And the son scrubbing the stairs symbolizes how healing is sometimes a hard and grueling process. Sometimes it can seem impossible, but you will get through it and you will see the light again.
This song makes me cry every time I listen to it. I love ADTR and this song is definitely on top.
This song literally has deep meanings. I have watched this video like so many times but damn , i still love this video and this song. One of their best works out there #adtrrocks!
Maybe the stair scrubbing is just trying to show that he did the same things over and over in his life, things that didn't make him him happy. The love of his life left him because of him never changing his ways. The X's on the wall are days that he wasted in his life doing things that served no purpose. He knew from an early age that he was wasting his life but never/could never change. He finally *realized* that he had wasted his whole life, which is when he "meets" his younger self, and he committed suicide thinking there was no where to go but down..... as in down the negative stairwell that he had been working on his whole life? Just my thoughts.
Agree with you there
Sounds pretty logical actually, however: I don't think he commited suicide at the end. I think he just passed away because of his bad lifestyle.
Gijs Dekkers I just thought he did because of the vertical scar on his wrist but you could be right.
Maybe it was that he was reflecting on his past while he was asleep. Well. Dying*. But yeah, possibly it was that he was dying and realizing his bad choices as a younger person and reflecting on all the things he lost. Then when he gets the bat and stuff, it was him mentally taking out his anger as to what he was doing with himself. The X's could be how long he was trapped in his thoughts.
Idunno. I guess the thing about these videos is you take away from it what you feel you relate to. There's never really a right answer :P
TacoDown Good thoughts indeed!
This is just one of those bands that I can always listen to regardless of how I feel or what mood I'm in.
Majority people seem to be interpreting this song with there tragic heart break stories and exes, which is fine, but to me this is basically about wasting your life away and never stepping up to change.
it really changes the tone of the song when you interpret it as if it's spoken to you by yourself, the desperation really comes through honestly
Could be both. Such as letting a breakup consume you to the point that you never move on and thus waste your life away instead of accepting change and moving on.
Yes I perceived it to myself as stepping up and changing yourself, being who you truly are and stopping the bullshit because you only have one life to live and you don't want to live it the wrong way.
This song always hits home. It hits me pretty hard every time I listen to it
9 years ago and this song still hits hard today!!! ❤
I cried
+Brenda Puente Same
If they had to pick.. the Realist Raw.. breakup song. 💔 This Would be It . 💔 #1 .
+Alex Medina :(
+Alex Medina Damn true..
if the song made you cry, that's because you can probably relate. if someone wronged you, don't waste tears on those people. Someone out there will appreciate you.
2019 and this song keeps getting better and better as time goes on.
just brilliant!
MEU DEUS EU AMO MUITO ESSA MUSICA
tomara que toque ela nos credito final da minha vida kkkk
this is the song I've been looking for all my life
Took me a long time to listen to this song without breaking down crying. Its such a beautiful song
2022, song still hits hard just like it did when it first came out.
Just discovered this by accident on Tik Tok of all places....what a gem
This is beautiful.
Rock can be beautiful in so many ways.
This song really tugs on my heart strings, so personal and profound .
One of your best adtr ! Xx
What scares me the most about growing up is that ill make mistakes and end up like this and look back when im 30 or 40 and realize I wasted my life. Im valedictorian of my senior class so far but what does it mean. It really doesnt mean much 5 to 10 years down the road. I have some much hope and dreams I just hope I find the right way to live it all before I die. Being 17 sucks.
Live your life and do not stress the rest. No regrets
take it a day at a time my friend. Take small steps and set smaller goals that will eventually lead you towards your bigger picture. But don't dwell on not being a success yet. 17 is the perfect time to still be thinking about where you're going.
you sound like every whinny pissy teen, go out there and do what you want, it's not hard. the key to success is having the resolve to do it.
In the end we only regret the chances we didn't take. Live the life you want to live, if you don't then it's not your life. I'm in the same boat my friend. I feel the same way, even four years later. You never shake that feeling, but don't feed that doubt. I believe in you.
The best thing you can do is attempt to follow your dreams no matter how risky they are. I'm in the same situation you are in, I just graduated a week or 2 ago and I'm going to follow my dream of being a movie director no matter how risky it is. I COULD get a safe medium wage paying job and I COULD live my life not worrying too much about losing my job but then I'd always be wondering what if I had followed my dream. Our existence is so small in the universe, why attempt to live "safe" if your just going to regret it and not be happy
Personally, I love this album more than their older stuff. I like hearing Jeremy's normal singing voice and I also like hearing them sing about things in their lives.
I listen to this song every time I want to cry. Such a good song for these difficult moments..
This song really hits way to close to home.
La busqué durante 3 años, nunca la pude encontrar, y hoy por fin la pude encontrar. Me sacó una lagrima.
Love this song.. I can relate to it like no other
Honestly this was one of my lest favorite till I saw the video today.
same here!
Yeah the video really made the song better it almost felt like they also re-recorded it
I hope they have songs like this on their new album
+Pokemonix151 Wolfebane what do you mean by rip off
+Pokemonix151 Wolfebane Me neither. But I'm excited because the two singles released have a nice, heavy sound
Forgive and forget
Vodka Melkior yep
they got some of 'em :D
Listened to this for the first time a few days a go and my soul resonates to the melody of this song...Pain is all I hear
at the age of 17, I listened to this song on repeat in the same depressed state as I am now at 27
A song I can listen to on repeat.
I can't Believe this song came out 3 years ago! I remember listening to it for the first time and instantly falling in love!
You know sometimes a relationship goes from Have Faith In Me to End Of Me
:,v
only the truth
you're not wrong there
MemeHowell best comment for this video right here
MemeHowell so true
MemeHowell this song ties in losing my best friend and being close to my friends and finding a new one.
hermosa cancion y espectacular video me recuerda mi adolesencia
I've listened to this song so many times. And i still just got goosebumps and my hairs still stood up. That's amazing honestly.
This song reminds me of when I was obsessed with somebody important I knew. He found out one little lie I told him, but it was a pretty substantial one due to the circumstances. I wanted to die when he basically made it clear that (unless I attend his events and pretend to be someone I'm not, which is worse,) I'll never see or talk to him ever again. He was a close friend of 3 years. So that, being found extremely close to death from a poor choice I made a couple days after that, 2 of my other friends dying in the same week as that, and realizing how much I've squandered my time and money since graduating high school years early made suicidal matters more intense. But each day, with every waking hour, I'm striving harder and harder to make my time important and meaningful because I'm too young to give up and die now. As much as I love this song, I refuse to let someone who, in retrospect, wasn't as good of a person as I made him out to be, be the end of me. I've let go of my obsession, now time to let go of the rest of this depression.
Wow iam so sorry
Indeed
I remember going thru a super hard issue for a period of time. I thought I'd never get out of my head but I worked hard to distract myself and get thru each individual day. Eventually life started to feel more and more normal till I basically forgot I ever had a problem.
Also, idk if ur religious, but praying and asking God for help really got me thru. I felt like He was the only chance I had of escaping my problem.
So there's a few suggestions for you. I promise everything will get better. I'll pray for you :)
***** Yeah that's true mate it is
Well glad you found out your friend was a total jerk before investing to much time on him. Having to deal with the loss of two of your friends must have been extremely difficult. I'm glad to hear that you are recovering from your depression, surround yourself with people who love you and aren't going to drag you down. You have been through some tough times and yet you remain strong and continue to push forward. Hope all goes well in your life, keep on fighting, the best is yet to come.
Im Beyond hooked on this song... I have always been a ADTR fan.. but this song just hits SOOO DEEP.. I straight cried the first time listening.. Like this song is so POWERFUL... #ADTR #ForLife
i just started balling my eyes out....
that the first time ive really cried in 4 years
A day to remember me surpreendeu! A coerência da letra com o vídeo ficou muito foda.
A lot of people see the video as the man's son but I think it's the same person, and the woman that left him was his wife. After he dies, he's wearing a white shirt just like the teen boy and they have the same scar, so he was looking back at himself from a long time ago and now.
that's my opinion too
you're right
+AlphaLeader772 oh I just looked up the meaning behind and ADTR said that was what it was about don't remember the source so who cares I think the meaning of the song is more important anyway
Yeah I think the scar thing was supposed to confirm that it's the same person, just at different ages.
you're right
what an amazing song and video. thank you for being great. namaste, shalom, and god bless.
Really cool to see how they have grown as a band
You guys need to understand that relationships under 18 hardly ever work out. I have been through it.. please do not worry everything will eventually happen in time to come. :)
Absolutely in love with this song, I've been listening to it on repeat for days. Its perfect.
Its amazing how a song that I can barely understand the meaning of, can give me so many feels😢
Basically the meaning to the song is that this guy loved this girl and he tried so hard with the relationship and she leaves him. So basically the way the video explains it..he wasted he life away depressed until he eventually died.
More like getting stuck in self destructive behavior and not changing until one day it's all over, and it just drives everyone who care about you away
I can't believe I have never heard this before.
Welcome!
