Does anyone else think about this album almost 8 years later? I am an adult now and I honestly can't get these songs out of my head. This was such a good album!
The first half is heavy and pumps you up with meaning then the second half is more lighter but brings out the meaning even harder and gives the message in a brilliant way this is why this is one of my favourite songs for MMF :D
At first this song made me feel like there might be a chance for me and a girl in the future down the road when our lives started to develop but now with a new mindset the song helps me to see that it's better to let go and just create a new chapter in my life. Powerful stuff
I know. When I listened to this when it came out I never took into consideration the lyrics and how deep is actually was. Just needed something to listen to. Came back and can't imagine why I haven't heard it in so long. #Deep
The best song they've ever done. Sounds a bit fangirly but it was a huge eye opener when I saw these live the first time. Matty was a humble as fuck dude as well afterwards
If there is anyone in the world that I want to thank. It's Memphis May Fire. They're not only a giant inspiration to me. They're literally my heroes. This was the first song I heard by them. I was sitting alone in my room about to kill myself. And I was listening to Pandora when this song came on and I just stopped and broke down crying because the lyrics were so fitting. This song showed me what a blessing it is to live. Thanks so much. Without you guys, I wouldn't be here today.
The spirit of God is all over this song! God saved you through Memphis May Fire. “Defined not by where you’ve been. Knowing that you’ll be made new!” And you’ve been made new!
Dear, MMF Thank you!! You have no idea how you've changed my life. This song tells me how I should live my life. Always trying to do the right thing. Just forget about all the crap that im holding on to and always move forward. This song helped me hold on. I'll keep trying. Thanks again!!
2:42 you always think like "ah this derpy computer sound errors" but after you listen to it a million times you get aware of the fact it's not really your computer :D
I think they are all amazing, Sleepwalking and Between the Lies too! But the old Memphis EP with Chase Ryan, ehh, I prefer Mat's vocals over anything else.
I’ve listened to these guys for about 10 years, beginning in my secular days. Always loved the tunes, lyrics were “meh” - but now I actually GET these guys. The further I grew spiritually the more I started to understand the meaning behind the lyrics. Every listen gets better 🔥🔥🔥
12 Years later and this song still gives me chills and brings a little tear. Insane how this song was overlooked by the other powerhouses in the same album.
I'm very surprised this song does not have more views. This is honestly my favorite song of the album, and honestly, you may not know this Memphis May Fire, but your music do save lives. Your lyrics are so inspirational, and for that I thank you. Keep it up MMF!
I remember being all stoked for this album to drop and my friends and i played the shit out of this album front to back.. no need to skip any songs cus they were all great and its bringing back all kinds of amazing memories. :')
I've seen Memphis May Fire twice and it changed my life both times. you definatly missed out these guys are just one of a kind and there is no other band out there like Memphis May Fire... hope to see these guys again in scranton this year at warp tour.
i cant find a single thing wrong with them. and i love either lyrics. "i cant say, the past will never get in the way just remember all things come and go, if they dont mean a thing, its not about what you have now, its what you have in store". those right there helped me get through a breakup from a 9 month relationship lastweek. you guys are an inspiration. if anyone keeps this music alive, its you. thank you.
I love Challenger and its lyrics too. Both of these albums are perfect and there's no song that I dislike by Memphis May Fire. This band is perfect for sure.
This song makes me think,"maybe I'm not a complete failure, maybe I'm actually worth something to someone...maybe I'm really NOT alone...", thank you Memphis May Fire...thank you.
this song is absolutely fucking incredible. i first got into this band by listening to challenger and now can't stop listening to anything and everything they've put out.
no problem! It's such an incredible concept for am album. I wanted to make sure people knew what it was about since a lot of people were saying they didn't know. This album has saved my life!
Taken from an interview with Matty Mullins: "Every song tells the story from the perspective of somebody different. There’s only one song on the record that’s told from my perspective. The rest of the songs are from people that I know that have gone through certain things. Every song on the record tells the story about something that makes people feel hollow inside and that’s why we named the record The Hollow. The very last track on the record offers hope."
who gets goose bumps when he says " I cant say the past will never get in the way, just remember all things come and go, they don't mean a thing, its not about what you have now, its about what you have in store, LET GO!!!!" cause i for sure as hell did :''') beautiful and wise lyrics man.
My ex who I gave 3 years of my life to and almost proposed to left me for another guy and it has been the hardest thing to let go. This song made me burst into tears.
Matt said in an interview that each of these songs are about different things that make people feel hollow, and they are each written by Matt, but from a different person's perspective, someone the band knows. And The song the reality is the one song he wrote from his perspective about the state of mankind. And then this song the redeemed, offers hope to all of those people who feel hollow. This is by far the best song off the album. It gives me so much hope for my life. I love MMF!
my story is tht i lookd up rock band's list of network songs and found these guys and to b honest...theyre def the best band i found out from there, along with a few others but not many i didnt no tht was wicked good
Listened to these guys literally when they first showed up on purevolume, LONG time ago... Solid lyrics then, Solid lyrics now. God bless Memphis May Fire :)
As what a theological person would call an Atheist, I love this band. Even when the lyrics are directed from the bible. That is the best thing about music, it's representational of whatever you want it to be. For me it's strength, understanding and being positive. Everyone has a story. Conversely, every story has an ending. Brilliant shit.
this song has really helped me through some shit and getting to see these guys live was amazing for me cuz this album has really helped me through stuff
I seriously think that is album is damn amazing! but this song out of all of them is the most up lifting, is sure has picked me up when im so low and depressed. I feel redeemed.
Good God.... These lyrics are amazi- no... EVERY Song on the album has INCREDIBLE lyrics. It seems each one has meaning and a story to tell. Memphis May Fire, you are coming close to being my favorite band. ILOVETHESEGUYS. XD
my story? I listened to this song on repeat and wrote this on my wall "From this day on, I vow to live life to the fullest, to take advantage, to never let the past get in the way , to never let my thoughts consume me, to never be scared, to never let the past influence a current decsion, I will change, I will become better, I will be happy, and I will fight, this is my life, I have the tools, I can do this, I promise." It's not what you have now, it's what you have in store
"Your eternity is worth so much more than their opinions of you."
Yes!!! That part hit me hard, like a slap in the face
Amen!
hits hard
By far their most emotional and lyrically incredible album.
Never gets old.
Madeline Williamson nope it never does its an amazing album
and you can 100% understand everything
4 years later and still my favorite album of all time, absolute perfection
+Nicholas Their best album hands down.
Nick Tomski I more like the Challanger but yeah. It is a really good album 😃
What about now? :D
@@csanadsajo2395 bro
Been over a decade and still jamming this🤘🏼😎
This is a very underrated song..
Man, this is such a mind-blowing album...
Does anyone else think about this album almost 8 years later? I am an adult now and I honestly can't get these songs out of my head. This was such a good album!
My favorite song by them. Other than the one that starts with "The"
The first half is heavy and pumps you up with meaning
then the second half is more lighter but brings out the meaning even harder and gives the message in a brilliant way
this is why this is one of my favourite songs for MMF :D
I wish this album never had an ending
This song gives me chills every time... Helped me get over a lot of hard times, and I'm very thankful for that
100 years later and this album and especially this song still hits just as hard! Best album ever!
At first this song made me feel like there might be a chance for me and a girl in the future down the road when our lives started to develop but now with a new mindset the song helps me to see that it's better to let go and just create a new chapter in my life. Powerful stuff
I neglected this album for years and wow have I made a huge mistake.
I know. When I listened to this when it came out I never took into consideration the lyrics and how deep is actually was. Just needed something to listen to. Came back and can't imagine why I haven't heard it in so long. #Deep
lol me too
Cairn Tse-Lalonde Same, but aren't you glad we are here late instead of not at all?!
Very much so! :)
Cairn Tse-Lalonde haha me too
one of the best songs they will ever write!
I discovered this band maybe 10 minutes ago and they're already one of the best bands I've ever heard
Those were some good growls.
+Christ Lover amazing
The best song they've ever done. Sounds a bit fangirly but it was a huge eye opener when I saw these live the first time. Matty was a humble as fuck dude as well afterwards
If there is anyone in the world that I want to thank. It's Memphis May Fire. They're not only a giant inspiration to me. They're literally my heroes. This was the first song I heard by them.

The spirit of God is all over this song! God saved you through Memphis May Fire. “Defined not by where you’ve been. Knowing that you’ll be made new!” And you’ve been made new!
I hope you’re doing good now dude
Dear, MMF
Thank you!!
You have no idea how you've changed my life. This song tells me how I should live my life. Always trying to do the right thing. Just forget about all the crap that im holding on to and always move forward. This song helped me hold on. I'll keep trying.
Thanks again!!
Thank god for lyrics. Smart men
This song is so underrated. Will always be may favorite from Memphis. The vocal melodies at the end are incredible.
Same think almost happened to me.I can't stand people that could think about hating on Memphis May Fire
2:42 you always think like "ah this derpy computer sound errors" but after you listen to it a million times you get aware of the fact it's not really your computer :D
Realising thusly that you need to re-new the prescription medication...
DARTHMOBIUS Wut?
evilocomments It was a joke :-D reread your comment quickly and then mine as a single narrative lol :-D
DARTHMOBIUS Ahahaha now i get it, nice one, i like it when people don't make simple plain jokes, so you need some time to get aware of it:)
evilocomments glad you do, anyway I was originally kinda hoping for a second there you'd continue it with something surreal :-D
I’m listening deeply to this record after so many years. It make me cry sooo much because of how much I relate to the lyrics.
OMG this song and what it says is amazing O.O MMF kicks serious arse! Hope new album is good :O
I really liked Challenger and Unconditional, but non of them will be better than this album
I think they are all amazing, Sleepwalking and Between the Lies too! But the old Memphis EP with Chase Ryan, ehh, I prefer Mat's vocals over anything else.
Sadly.
I just can't get enough of third song...
MY FAVORITE SONG! PLS COME BACK TO YOUR ROOTS MMF!!!!! 😔
Still hear this song
Completely was sleeping on this band so glad I found them now. Going to see them and Atreyu in 2 weeks!!!!
Mr. 2 weeks later now... how was it???
I’ve listened to these guys for about 10 years, beginning in my secular days. Always loved the tunes, lyrics were “meh” - but now I actually GET these guys. The further I grew spiritually the more I started to understand the meaning behind the lyrics. Every listen gets better
🔥🔥🔥
Waiter: "How would you like your steak?"
Me: "Well done!"
"Well done!"
The feels
this melody is absolutely amazing :O. i listen metal for over 1-2 years and wow...how come i didn't come by these people yet?:O genious, purely
evilocomments what bands were you listening?
12 Years later and this song still gives me chills and brings a little tear. Insane how this song was overlooked by the other powerhouses in the same album.
I'm very surprised this song does not have more views. This is honestly my favorite song of the album, and honestly, you may not know this Memphis May Fire, but your music do save lives. Your lyrics are so inspirational, and for that I thank you. Keep it up MMF!
pieces, is what I love this song to.
this band deserves more recognition
My favourite metalcore song
I saw them at Warped and they sounded better than any recording I've ever heard.
My inspiration to keep going ...
Jesus, this music alone can convert anyone and bring 'em close to The Lord.
The destination lies ahead and we are not alone, not ever!
The chorus of this song helped me get through tough times. Always be my favourite and album and it just make sense to put this as the last track.
how could anyone dislike this music
I remember being all stoked for this album to drop and my friends and i played the shit out of this album front to back.. no need to skip any songs cus they were all great and its bringing back all kinds of amazing memories. :')
I've seen Memphis May Fire twice and it changed my life both times. you definatly missed out these guys are just one of a kind and there is no other band out there like Memphis May Fire... hope to see these guys again in scranton this year at warp tour.
Best breakdown ever right here!
Currently rediscovering this album again. Oh the nostalgia. Memphis May Fire got me through so much shit in high school
perfect band
i cant find a single thing wrong with them. and i love either lyrics. "i cant say, the past will never get in the way just remember all things come and go, if they dont mean a thing, its not about what you have now, its what you have in store". those right there helped me get through a breakup from a 9 month relationship lastweek. you guys are an inspiration. if anyone keeps this music alive, its you. thank you.
Beautiful song...!!!
Very :'D
I love Challenger and its lyrics too. Both of these albums are perfect and there's no song that I dislike by Memphis May Fire. This band is perfect for sure.
This song makes me think,"maybe I'm not a complete failure, maybe I'm actually worth something to someone...maybe I'm really NOT alone...", thank you Memphis May Fire...thank you.
That recurring guitar riff sends shivers down my spine. You know the one.
this song is absolutely fucking incredible. i first got into this band by listening to challenger and now can't stop listening to anything and everything they've put out.
my story: I found them on rise records, listened to one song, had an eargasm, bought the album five minutes later. True talent and passion.
no problem! It's such an incredible concept for am album. I wanted to make sure people knew what it was about since a lot of people were saying they didn't know. This album has saved my life!
I agree. These lyrics are just completely amazing. So inspiring. It gives you hope.
Who is here in 2017 ?? wow this album is great still jamming to it !!!
It's crazy how much music can inspire you and change you isn't it? I wish more people would take good music and lyrics to heart. You have my respect.

Holy shiznet these lyrics are really eye-opening and amazing 🙌
My ex who I gave 3 years of my life to and almost proposed to left me for another guy and it has been the hardest thing to let go. This song made me burst into tears.
Be strong :)
This song is the most inspiring song I've ever had the pleasure of hearing. I used to listen to it constantly last year.
Matt said in an interview that each of these songs are about different things that make people feel hollow, and they are each written by Matt, but from a different person's perspective, someone the band knows. And The song the reality is the one song he wrote from his perspective about the state of mankind. And then this song the redeemed, offers hope to all of those people who feel hollow. This is by far the best song off the album. It gives me so much hope for my life. I love MMF!
his scream n voice always calms me when I'm n a bad mood. I also listen to this band on my ipod during classes n gym when I'm doing the mile lol
my story is tht i lookd up rock band's list of network songs and found these guys and to b honest...theyre def the best band i found out from there, along with a few others but not many i didnt no tht was wicked good
Listened to these guys literally when they first showed up on purevolume, LONG time ago... Solid lyrics then, Solid lyrics now. God bless Memphis May Fire :)
This song is so moving. especcialy the chorus.
Best thing about MMF. They can still make amazing music with amazing lyrics as well. Amazing song, well done Memphis.
As what a theological person would call an Atheist, I love this band. Even when the lyrics are directed from the bible. That is the best thing about music, it's representational of whatever you want it to be. For me it's strength, understanding and being positive. Everyone has a story. Conversely, every story has an ending. Brilliant shit.
Someday i'll get to see these guys perform live!:)
