Philipp Sandfort I'm pretty sure a forest is good. Would've been another thing if he sang "we're a city of lives, we're grey and cold" or something like that. Trees are good. We are trees, tall and strong. And we won't let ourselves be cut down = we won't give up.
I always thought rise against was the best out there and still do to this day. They have the most under appreciated lyrics out there I can’t wrap my head around some of these verses & these guys just have some kind of separated sound from any other band that makes them unique
Thought I'd say, even though I'm 16 and have a lot of my life ahead of me, Rise Against has saved my life once. It was with Survive. In all honesty, I owe Tim my life. Bash me for saying this, but it's the truth.
Tim is everything to me. He's the one who inspires me to know that everything actually gets better, and he inspires a lot of different beliefs for not only me but ..everyone. And he has a way of makeing everyone who goes through feeling like nothing and being more than another face in the crowd feel like they're the only face of their Audience of One..... I
you're right. - I also think with the Acoustic versions, we really listen to his lyrics. I think it gathers more attention and awareness. These guys are great and I can't see their music fading away. What I like about them, is that their not commercial and with all honesty - the better!
Well, they're still a commercial band. They have their Mainstream songs (Ex: Audience of One) but what makes them different is 3 things: 1) They don't only talk the talk, they also walk the walk. They spread much awareness and are involved in many organisations 2) Amazing lyrics. Tim McIlrath truely is a poet! 3) Great "live" sound. They're as good on stage than on album which proves they have talent... and lots of it. In the end, RA are musical Gods...
@@No_Control Lol what a wild reply to receive! Thank you for this. Honestly don't really play much anymore. Still play every now and then but basically just to learn songs on my acoustic and play for myself and that's basically it. Sadly, not really looking to create music anymore
We've been alright up until now, But the air that we breathe is about to run out. We've rehearsed our lines clear and loud, But the cue never came and the lights, They never went down. So we're passing the time, While time passes us. The fast lanes a term never applied to us. Without a dime to my name, Or a prayer in the world. I walk out the door. Destination anywhere but here. Away from you. Now I'm on my way to the other side, (On my way) I'll forget everything I left behind. (On my way) These empty rooms, (On my way) Are still filled with you. (On my way) So I dropped out of my own race, A race with no finish line, No first or last place. These faces all rush right past me. I turn and walk away, Cause we finally know now what our Time here's about, we were not meant to be Another face in the crowd. We're a forest of lives, But we grow tall and wide. We'll never be cut down. Destination anywhere but here. Away from you. Now I'm on my way to the other side, (On my way) I'll forget everything I left behind. (On my way) These empty rooms, (On my way) Are still filled with you. (On my way) I'm so tired and turned around and scared. I'm lying in empty beds again. I'll wait for you to come To your senses, barbed-wire fences Won't keep me from breaking through. I swear I will to you. Now I'm on my way to the other side, (On my way) I'll forget everything I left behind. (On my way) These empty rooms, (On my way) Are still filled with you. (On my way) I'm so tired and turned around and scared. I'm lying in empty beds again. Away from you.
i fucking love rise. these men are amazing. and idk how you guys can say one album's better than another. EVERYTHING that comes from them is simply amazing
"So we're passing the time
While time passes us"
I really like that line for some reason.
The timestamp on your comment only makes what you said hit harder. I hope you're still going strong in life, even if it's 14 years later.
we’re feeling each other even though it’s been 15 years… and I am 15 years old!😅
Hope they remake this for Ghost Note sympathies Vol. 2
they must!!
sympathies
Did they do it??
These are the types of songs that mean something to you growing up. Songs that keep you dreaming. Rise Against inspires.
Hello from 2024. I hope you grew up to what you wanted to be.
@@derric2379hello bro, wish us all to grow up someone we want to be
I remember watching this exact video when i was in 8th grade. I'm 28 now and i'm glad this video os still up
Now you are 33🎉
Praise the lord. Jesus is back!!
we're forests of lives, we grow tall and wide, we'll never be cut down...
im not sure if this is meant to be a positive thing...

That riff during the bridge that Chris plays is incredible...Amazing men who make up the most amazing band to ever live.
I always thought rise against was the best out there and still do to this day. They have the most under appreciated lyrics out there I can’t wrap my head around some of these verses & these guys just have some kind of separated sound from any other band that makes them unique
Words cannot describe how much I love this song...
00:39 - releasing tim's unique voice = goosebumps
It's 2024 and this song embodies my current situation spot on. A masterpiece
This is so good but you must hear “World” or “Cage” by SLT 🔥🌎🎶🌎🔥

Casually playing this acoustic like it's not literally the fastest drum part in the verse that RA drummer has ever played...absolutely insane.
This is so good but you must hear “World” or “Cage” by SLT 🔥🌎🎶🌎🔥
oh his voice's so beautiful.. love this band/tim
Rise Against = best band ever.... they can do hard and acoustic songs... love them.... they changed my life....

This song still rocks with emotion. I beat the crap out of my guitar playing it, too.
This song is kind of inspiring me to move out and start a new life somewhere else move from this city... story of my life every word of this lyrics :(
Tim is everything to me. He's the one who inspires me to know that everything actually gets better, and he inspires a lot of different beliefs for not only me but ..everyone.

you're right. - I also think with the Acoustic versions, we really listen to his lyrics. I think it gathers more attention and awareness.
These guys are great and I can't see their music fading away. What I like about them, is that their not commercial and with all honesty - the better!
I discovered this version of the song before the rock version and i absolutely enjoy this one a lot better.

one of my fav bands in the hold wide world
We've been alright up until now,

Destination anywhere but here.
Away from you.
Now I'm on my way to the other side,
(On my way)
I'll forget everything I left behind.
(On my way)
These empty rooms,
(On my way)
Are still filled with you.
(On my way)
So I dropped out of my own race,
A race with no finish line,
No first or last place.
These faces all rush right past me.
I turn and walk away,
Cause we finally know now what our
Time here's about, we were not meant to be
Another face in the crowd.
We're a forest of lives,
But we grow tall and wide.
We'll never be cut down.
Destination anywhere but here.

I'm so tired and turned around and scared.
I'm lying in empty beds again.
I'll wait for you to come
To your senses, barbed-wire fences
Won't keep me from breaking through.
I swear I will to you.
Now I'm on my way to the other side,

I was so stoked to hear that rise against was playing at warped tour. They're only going to play at four locations none of which are mine :(
