hi just wanted to say your music is beautiful. and by the looks of it you are beautiful too, inside and out.
Mr. Faunte Is There any backstory about this song and its lyrics , it haunts me everytime and im almost at the verge of tears , i wanna know the story ... i feel like deep inside i have a connection with in my own life with the passage this song is taking me through .... or maybe im better left alone in the dark .
i love you
Hey, Roland… I feel like we’re close enough that I can call you that. Just listening to, loving and living your beautiful creations should be enough for that.
I have a playlist named “Stuff that makes me feel” for whenever I feel like a soulless, defeated, pathetic husk of a person incapable of realizing how beautiful life can actually be. Lately I’ve been going back to it more frequently and it scares me. I’m terrified of this toxic indifference that keeps creeping in.
I know there’s warmth and I found it in this song. That’s why this has been on top of that playlist since I first heard it.
Thank you, Roland. For gifting me my favorite song. Thank you.
Don't you dare stop doing music.
😔
i dont think he knows the power he has
Actually, I think he knows exactly the power he has. Look at those tears.
@@OldFriendAuden he has brought me tears... multiple times. I'm sure to so many. This is true magic. Very powerful. ✌️💚🤗. Powerful enough to make me realize that I have to leave my ex tomorrow. Leave everyone and start new. Powerful enough to move me. Literally
guys i have a problem i keep listening to this on repeat everyday since this came out live i-
It’s okay🥰🥰
Well, you're not alone....I kinda have the same problem.
it just be like that
Whatever it takes to summon your happiness right?
it's so great!!!
when he started crying i did too
oh my,
lights are gone
i can't see stars anymore
but they're, they are
heaven shine looks so dull anymore
lights i can't see
what did i do that this would be done to me
oh, my God if you're still in charge
i think i'd like to meet you
I just really want to meet someone that can understand this, or want to listen to this as much as I do
i want the same. there are a bunch of songs, i want to listen to with someone with as much connection as i have with these songs.
I know exactly what you mean..
"oh.. my God, if you're still in charge. I think that I'd like to meet you."
Proof that at least one person out there understands how you feel.
There stands a door that I was yet to consider
But the locks are all melting and the colors are convincing me
Words on the gate reading I'll make this all go away
Just walk through me to the silence, that's the music
In the valley of nothing where everyone started
Before life erased you and made you not part of it
Broke off a piece of what was silent, but eternal
And then trapped in a body we beg to return to it
Placed in the depths of an ocean, forgetting
How we belong at the surface but everyone's swimming
Towards lights at the bottom reflecting on mirrors
But I could labor no longer and float towards what everyone
Fears the eternal that's found in the shallows
But one day they will realize what I have just figured out
Here, at the bottom, it's cold and it's sort of merciless
But the water gets warmer as you float away from it
On my way to live the greatest
Life, not have one, or I'll just stick around
And see if it gets better
This decision lasts forever Seeing pictures, filled with envy
Trying to become who I used to be
It seems so far from likely
Smiling, he looks nothing like me
Levers and pulleys and spindles of wire
My limbs are all frozen and my lungs are on fire
And here in your arms I feel miles away from you
Know how it's strange, but I mean all that I'm saying, oh
Levers, and pulleys, and spindles of rope
In that perfect machine that I used to be, something broke
And then a thought so unnatural that it felt like perfection
Came and knocked on my door, and in time I just let it in
Asking me if I had heard of the surface
Where nothing goes wrong, and where no one can ever hurt you
And taking my hand it allowed me to breathe
Said that there's a way to always feel the way you feel
When you finally find your way to sleep
And then it showed me my life
How it could end, and where it started
And then it showed me the world but said I'm not a part of it
But the lonely and the hurting have a place, no one's seen it
But once I have shown you,
you can't ever leave it No matter
these thoughts, and these words, so inviting
I can't say goodbye just quite yet I'll keep fighting it
People who love me would never stop hurting
From something so simple yet something so permanent
Gone into the valley where everyone started
Where smiles are worn by the hopeless and the brokenhearted
There in the light of the stars dancing quietly
Spirits at home in the warmth of eternity
Broken boy who must keep hoping
Maybe one day he will figure this out
Or things will heal in time
This breathing ghost that never died
These bits and pieces all left over
From that smiling child I used to be
I'm cold and terrified
I know there's warmth but I can't find it
Oh
Oh my
lights are gone
I can't see stars anymore
But there, they are,
heaven shine
looks so dull anymore
Lights
I can't see
What did I do
that this would be done to me
Oh
my God
if you're still in charge
I think that I'd like to meet you
@@lucaspeters-murphy2770 do you have any idea what this last part means? I think the first part is about idealistic thoughts around suicide. But for "lights are gone, I can't see stars anymore" do you know what this may be referring to?
I think light mean like hope and I think I remember reading something about how he Used to love going out and seeing the stars but when he went out he felt so empty and didn’t feel the happiness that he had previously felt
@@mmiller6342 Ohhh alright cool that makes sense. Thank you!
@@neverending9803 Yes, i do believe that it is about hopelessness and suicide as he says "God, if you're still in charge, I think that I'd like to meet you." and in most/some theologies, dying (or suicide) is the only way to meet God. It's sad.
Lyrics (updated):
There stands a door that I was yet to consider
But the locks are all melting and the colors are convincing me
Words on the gate reading I’ll make this all go away
Just walk through me to the silence, that’s the music
In the valley of nothing where everyone started
Before life erased you and made you not part of it
Broke off a piece of what was silent, but eternal
And then trapped in a body we beg to return to it
Placed in the depths of an ocean, forgetting
How we belong at the surface but everyone's swimming
Towards lights at the bottom reflecting on mirrors
But I could labor no longer and float towards what everyone
Fears the eternal that's found in the shallows
But one day they will realize what I have just figured out
Here, at the bottom, it's cold and it’s sort of merciless
But the water gets warmer as you float away from it
On my way to live the greatest
Life, not have one, or I’ll just stick around
And see if this gets better
That decision lasts forever
Seeing pictures, filled with envy
'Cause I'm trying to become who I used to be
It seems so far from likely
Smiling, he looks nothing like me
Levers and pulleys and spindles of wire
My limbs are all frozen and my lungs are on fire
And here in your arms I feel miles away from you
Know how it’s strange, but I mean all that I’m saying, oh
Levers, and pulleys, and spindles of rope
In that perfect machine that I used to be, something broke

I found out about this song when i was in a very difficult part of my life. Everything was falling apart around. Drug abuse, family feuds, disappointments and self-immolation. When even i failed to understand the different kinds of pain i felt all the time, this song made me cry like a baby the night i heard it for the first time. It's my most played track on every song playing engine. He described pain he's hurting and we understand because we have felt the same kind of hurt. Brilliant!
i can relate
Its still my mist played song and no way is it dropping down for even a second. I still tear up everytime it playd
I keep coming back to this rendition over and over and over again. I have never seen a creator be so moved by his own creation, breaking down by the sheer volume of the emotions he's feeling.
I love how the words and verses just flow into the next one, feeling like an endless carousel.
I get you, Roland. We get you. Thanks.
This makes me cry so hard. We come from the same place. We aren’t supposed to be here and I think deep down you know that too. A wise man once said to me “how are you suffering?” And I said “I suffer so deep, so much” and he said “that’s how you know your living in the truth”
“What did I do? That this would be done to me?” Feeling that at the moment
Dear Roland, there is light at the end of this darkness. I have lived with these feelings for half of my life now. Some days, it might not seem like this. But then there are the little moments that make all this battle worth it: from a melody to a quote in a book or the smile of a stranger or a colorful sky at the sunset or whatever has meaning for you. On top of depression I got a pretty bad anxiety after my brother passed. I haven't heard your song. I lived it. Still live it. But "light can be found even in the darkest of times". You are that light to some people. Your gift of music can defeat darkness. Thank you for putting your feelings into this songs and keep fighting your fight. One day you'll wake up and you'll see that you've won. Or at least got used to it.
hey, mă bucur să văđ pe cineva din Romania aici :)
I have been repeating this for weeks now, laying on my bed with my phone at my side just listening to his words and stare at my ceiling. But this time, I decided to watch the video, I wanted to see how he plays the piano, how he moves his body while he flows out the lyrics, and noticed that he’s crying at the end. Holy hell it’s too early for me to cry but dammit streams can’t be stopped.
same.
..
Hate how relatable this song is
This was the first song I ever heard by you, and now I have every word of your album memorized. You make me feel things no other artist has ever been able to; your music evokes pure emotion. Please, never stop creating. Thank you for all you've done.
When I listen to this I just got frozen and can't do anything 'till it' s over. Wonderful
levers holds such a large place in my heart and will forever. Hearing it in refined sound, and with more lyrics means the world to me,,, i loved this. never stop making music, i can’t wait for your new album !
'my limbs are all cold and my lungs are on fire' is such a great line, describes the feeling perfectly with such simple words...makes me cry everytime
Ohh, my God, if your still in charge I think I like to meet you ~ > tears
someone loved this beautiful song so much that they had to like it twice, by turning their phone upside down just to like it again!
Ten people have done this now.
The emotion at the end just makes it so much more powerful. I can tell you mean it with every single cell in your body. ❤️❤️❤️
^^^^
Such a master piece... I just found my favorite singer.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to this song , this video, please never stop making music
"People who love me would never stop hurting". Yes. At the end of the day, you taught me something.
Please, please put this on Spotify. This is my favorite song from Sewing Kit and I keep listening to this version on repeat. It means so much to me. It's just so moving and powerful and full of emotion.
I keep listening to this over and over and I keep crying but I feel so liberated
i went on repeat mode first time i heard that song, then i found this acoustic version, but this is first time i did watched it while listening to it, and it hits hard
I forgot how much i loved this
This reminds me of old twenty one pilots... I like that. Is like when Tyler performed addict with a pen live and seemed like he was crying. This is nice.
Never had a song make me cry this much 😭😩❤️🔥
Thank you so much for giving us this masterpiece. This song has made me cry for I don't know, I lost count a long time ago but this song, this song, this is the song that calms me down whenever I feel like crossing that "door". This song has saved me a lot of times now. Aside from that, this is art. Music is a form of art and it is so rare to actually find songs that I can label as art because most of them sounds generical and the same, I guess. But you, your lyrics, they're art. A masterpiece. You're like the Vincent Van Gogh of music. Every sentence or phrase that you've sung is just pure art and it's so beautiful. So thank you for that. Thank you for everything.
I feel like i have become stone after listening.
Damm man! Allah bless you
I cry with him every time I come here, and I come here a lot
Este chico transmite algo maravilloso, me eriza la piel, y me lleva hacia un lugar maravilloso con su voz y su música. Ojalá nunca deje de hacerlo.
Bro de verdad, es un tipo maravilloso
this, this is your best song, could listen and have listened to on repeat for hours
I'll never be the same now that I have heard this.
Oh my, it was already great and now it’s even better with the additional lyrics you have put in, please keep up the great great work
Those who haven't suffered don't know how to share the suffering of others. Thank you for your special music! Love from Italy
a song has never spoken to me so much as this one does
I’m writing this and I’m full with tears, I’d never thought I’ll be that lonely to share how bad I feel here , or to not have any safe place to feel like home in ,I’m not feeling well at all , I’ve never been this weak before and it’s even worse when the closest people to your heart make you feel that way , I’ve been holding it so much lately, but now in this exact moment I admit that i lost it , and I’m giving myself this chance to feel as much weak as i can , hopefully I’ll get better and stronger soon and I’m sure i will .
I know I'm 3 weeks late but i really hope things will get better or at least you'll grow stronger to handle them.
Just wanted to say thank you for writing and performing this song. Thank you for your courage and willpower. You’re lyrics are moving and resonating and your voice is as well. Thank you.❤️🌦
This performance is even more touching when I see that the man whose music has reached me in ways no one ever has also feels the power his amazing talent holds. You and Jess Benko have a nack for taking many of our feelings and emotions and turning them into such moving art. Until I found the two of you, no artist has ever expressed how i feel so beautifully. Levers and Anchor make me emotional every time I hear them but I just can't get enough of your music, It is therapy to me. Thank you. You and Jess are literally lifesavers.
i still cant stop listening to this.
I listened to this song twice, first just the audio, now the live. There's no difference at all. Chills
This guy is so underrated- like I don't see anything on him and his music is absolutely golden
one of my favorite artists, what you do is pure art to me
... 3.05. the exact moment, the lump in my throat grew bigger.. and the pure emotion at 4.50...and the extended ending. ... you honestly made me feel you in that moment. i think my heart just broke.
Me encantan todas tus canciones , tienes un estilo tan propio y no me canso de escuchar tus canciones me hacen sentir tan bien juro que jamás me cansaré de escucharlas
Tienes una voz hermosa
What a beautiful pianist to watch. Your hands move over the keys in a soft and familiar way. It’s a pleasure 🎹
How can u be so perfect
Very emotional ending! Yes yes yes
Just when I thought I can finally listen to this song without breaking down...your music resonates with my most raw self, please continue making them for as long as you can
"To the silence. Thats the music" ... wow
Still here, still crying,.
Ok now this is magic
Been listening to this on repeat for so long. I was shocked to see the number of subscribers you have here. You deserve a lotttt moreee
Petition to get this song on Spotify:( it’s my favorite
keep doing your art. you deserve much much more.
so sad and yet satisfying
This song is a story of a brave soul 😥
Found this recently. And made me think about a lot of stuff about me, my life, things I hate about myself and what I am. And I picked some pieces of myself thanks to this piece of art. Even went back to writing some lyrics myself, just how I used to. Thank you
its been about a year and I have finally just figured out what the lyrics mean, this is art.
levers will always feel special to me. mostly bc i relate to so much he sings about
The last part hits me hard ~
God is always here for u 🌷
I'm literally in love with this man, someone please save me from this.
Can't. Stop. Listening. Can we just have this on spotify too? 👉🏻👈🏻 gcg?
This speaks to my soul, a voice I have not heard in a while, hope it stays to chat. Thank you for writing my pain and struggle in such sublime music and lyrics. Thank you.
I predict it will grow even more. Therefore, I will always support you.
You can see the pain he is in as he is playing more and more. Roland you are amazing
Glad I discovered this dude. Great music!
i love this so much, thank you for sharing your talent with us :). Pls come to the Netherlands one day, i would love to hear this live

Thank you for existing
My god this is beautiful. What a beautiful human to create something like this. ☀️ ⛅️ ☁️ 🌧 🌈 🎶🥲
Thank you, for that.
I hope you’re well brother
Okay, I did not expect that. I am crying here at work.. before he even started cried. This is art. I am so inspired.
Absolutely mesmerizing. This truly is beautiful brother.
I do be crying to his music lmao :)
The ability to be SOBBING but still play the piano like nothing changed. My guy. You may be falling apart, but you're keeping the pieces together.
Lyrics:
There stands a door that I was yet to consider
But the locks are all melting and the colors are convincing me
Words on the gate reading I’ll make this all go away
Just walk through me to the silence, that’s the music
In the valley of nothing where everyone started
Before life erased you and made you not part of it
Broke off a piece of what was silent, but eternal
And then trapped in a body we beg to return to it
Placed in the depths of an ocean, forgetting
How we belong at the surface but everyone's swimming
Towards lights at the bottom reflecting on mirrors
But I could labor no longer and float towards what everyone
Fears the eternal that's found in the shallows
But one day they will realize what I have just figured out
Here, at the bottom, it's cold and it’s sort of merciless
But the water gets warmer as you float away from it
On my way to live the greatest
Life, not have one, or I’ll just stick around
And see if it gets better
This decision lasts forever
Seeing pictures, filled with envy
Trying to become who I used to be
It seems so far from likely
Smiling he looks nothing like me
Levers and pulleys and spindles of wire
My limbs are all frozen and my lungs are on fire
And here in your arms I feel miles away from you
Know how it’s strange, but I mean all that I’m saying, oh
Levers, and pulleys, and spindles of rope
In that perfect machine that I used to be, something broke
And then a thought so unnatural that it felt like perfection
Came and knocked on my door, and in time I just let it in
Asking me if I had heard of the surface
Where nothing goes wrong, and where no one can ever hurt you
And taking my hand it allowed me to breathe
Said that there’s a way to always feel the way you feel
When you finally find your way to sleep
And then it showed me my life
How it could end, and where it started
And then it showed me the world but said I'm not a part of it
But the lonely and the hurting have a place, no one's seen it
But once I have shown you, you can't ever leave it
No matter these thoughts, and these words, so inviting
I can't say goodbye just quite yet I'll keep fighting it
People who love me would never stop hurting
From something so simple yet something so permanent
Gone into the valley where everyone started
Where smiles are worn by the hopeless and the brokenhearted
There in the light of the stars dancing quietly
Spirits at home in the warmth of eternity
Broken boy who must keep hoping
Maybe one day he will figure this out
Or things will heal in time
This breathing ghost that never died
These bits and pieces all left over
From that smiling child I used to be
I’m cold and terrified
I know there’s warmth but I can’t find it
I can't believe this isn't famous enough, all of the songs are amazing I really meant it. I heard lake by a random youtube playlist and I froze I really love it, I think all of these songs are truly a piece of art
This is just so great!
If I could only listen to one song for the rest of my life, this would be it.
This was the first song I ever heard of you... And I cannot be more grateful for that moment to hapenned.
you are my favorite human :)
I really like all of your songs, I already learned how to play Happy Life, Be Fine and Hand Over Hand. Your tutorial videos helped me so much and I really want to learn Levers as well. So, can you make a tutorial for Levers too? I really like your other tutorial videos too. I also have a suggestion for your tutorial videos, when I was trying to learn your other songs, learning the embellishment you use was the hardest thing and I think you can seperate the embellishment section in two or three parts, that would be easier for the ones who wants to learn. Other than that, everything was perfect about your tutorials. Thank you for making and music, you are my favourite artist!
i can't count more how many times I repeat this song everyday
Es muy buena la cansion
thanks for being a reason to stay alive
I love the lyrics, it's surreal and poetic
-I still love feeling the lyrics
Hermosa canción❤
This is so beautiful in every level. Thank you for this song. It really helps.
Such beautiful poetry; the duende resides in your music.
Can someone do a piano tutorial for this please!! :))
I kind of feel like I'm not worthy of listening to this song, because of the sheer raw emotion being put into it with every word. It feels almost too personal for someone like me to relate to, its like hearing something you're not supposed to know. Though this song breaks my heart every time, I love it to my very core.
