    Been listening to you guys since I was 16. I’m 31 now. Saw you live when I was in high school. “Parkway Drive” also was my senior quote under my photo in the yearbook. I did reports on you for multiple classes in multiple grades. You were also in my “senior project”. Lastly… my father has a friend in Byron Bay. So we asked him to take a photo of Parkway Drive and he sent it to me. I had it blown up and framed. This was probably 10 years ago. I still have it despite moving like 7 times. MORAL OF THE STORY: I’m a huge fan. Huge huge.

      The NRL used it darker still for promoting grand final, and parkway drive performed the greatest fear for alliance stadium grand opening and rooster do or die first game and rooster lost. The boys killed it. Almost as good as Tina Turner's 89 Winfield cup simply the best promo tour. Two absolute legendary people from opposite side other world Americans tina turner and Aussie's Jimmy Barnes.

I can't imagine this not existing. Amongst all other things over the last 20 odd years, for this alone, thank you.

    This song brings this 37 year old man to tears. I lost my friend Alan 3 years ago to colon cancer. He was building acres in the sky ready for his arrival, the night grew darker still when there was no hope of surviving his condition. Along with the beautifully crafted music, it's not hard to be driven to emotions. RIP my brother

Might not be “heavy” by today’s standards but the throwback sound is pretty dope. I welcome this style from having years of ear fatigue of hearing the same stuff over and over.

      This sums it up pretty well. It's almost like A Deathless Song but more emphasis on acoustics, which I dig. It seems like melodic metal bands out there need to have a softer tone
      to even things out from the aggressive/heavy stuff. Since Parkway's switched to this melodic metal direction, I've always said that they should take some influences from the band Insomnium...aggressive, yet when they want to go softer, it sounds like it fits the mould and isn't forced. Downside to this song was the vocals, autotune was way to noticeable for my liking.

    Easily the best song so far out of their singles. They aren't pretending to be heavy here, they're letting themselves make beautiful music.

    Watched them live a couple weeks ago. Didn't know many of their songs, but when they dimmed the lights and a trio of strings started playing the intro for this song, the guitar slowly comming in, then the bass, the vocals... It was amazing. And right after, they played Wild Eyes. Insane performance

    These guys are the best. Hands down my favorite band since i was 16 and I’m 30 years old today still jamming their music. I love everything they have put out from the Dont Close Your Eyes EP til today. I’m lucky to say I’ve seen them live. They’re such a good band

    This song is simple yet beautifully written with a very memorable style.
