I was today years old when I learned this is a Christian song. The whole band is a Christian band? How did I miss that? They were my favorite growing up. Edit: It's been two years. Please stop commenting on this. Especially if you're just gonna say how great God is. Truthfully learning this has made some of the songs unlistenable for me with all the Christian hate BS going around. Thanks.
If more Christian music was like this, I'd actually head to church once in a while (sure, I'd probably burst into flames, but still) Edit: Guess who got saved? Jesus Christ is the way! The King of Kings and Lord of Lords

My mom loves Flyleaf. I grew up listening to their songs 'Sick' and 'Fully Alive' but this is definitely my favorite. This era of music is my favorite place. I wish it could be like this again. Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Linkin Park, Seether, my childhood.
I feel like the majority of us discovered this when we were in middle school. Shit, music hit so much differently back then, but I feel is more appreciated the older we got.
i sure did in 7th grade of 2009 my brother got me into flyleaf myself couldn't stop listening due having a huge on Lacey my brother and cousin tease me saying "Jonathan gots a woody watching Lacey sing"
I've just gotten into Flyleaf early this month , and I've been watching all of their videos , I sang "Run To You", twice , and "Life Screams", by Lacey Sturm . I'm going to sing this song tomorrow . I'm so excited !!! I can't get enough of this song . I absolutely love it !!!! I lost count how many times I've watched this video , and the one with lyrics , in the last couple of days . Seriously !! And , I'm going to get Lacey Sturm's CD , "Life Screams", next month . Yes !! I love Flyleaf and Lacey Sturm . This is great music , and I really love to rock out , and sing with passion , too . I'm 51 years old , and I enjoy singing , dancing , and writing , as Jesus has called me to do . This is so rewarding and satisfying , and yes , Jesus is very exciting !!! This music kicks a.. !!!!
I've also just recently , as in early this month , gotten into Skillet and Red . I love those guys !!!! I'm going to get Skillet's new CD , "Victorious", and the one that came before that , "Unleashed Beyond"- Deluxe Edition , this month , and in the last couple of days , I've watched 20 videos from Red . Skillet and Red also kick a.. !!! In a couple of weeks , if there is time to sing 2 songs , on Friday , the 8th , I'm going to sing , "Mystery Of You", and either "Yours Again", or "Hold Me Now", by Red . It's really hard to decide . They're both really great songs . I love to belt it out when I sing . It is so much fun !!!
It's crazy, after all this time, how your music has never deluted. Always making me feel whole inside. Your message warms us, it fills the void within. Thank you for what you have done, it's more than you will ever realize. God bless, we love you.
3:00 - 3:10 why after so many years do we still only have less than 10 seconds of such a powerful breakdown. I'm pretty sure everyone agrees that's the best part of the song.
I had no idea this was a Christian song until I read the comments. I started listening to Flyleaf when I was in Middle school and it holds new meaning for me with it being Christian music. ❤❤❤❤❤
Bro Im not tryna sound weird or anything.. lol.. and i dont mind your religion its cooll.. but.. since I became a christian and reading the bible depth came In my heart and passion comes with ease hehe
I'm not able to believe, but I feel all of the faith that the whole band puts into his song. It honestly have me shivers when I first understood the message of the song. The whole album is brilliant.
i never heard of this band. But there's this woman that i am madly in love with and she is exactly and everything i've ever or could ever want, and she sent me this song and said "That is my song about you. That is about you. Completely." And I'm sitting here sobbing with happiness that the person I've always wanted most in this world feels this way about me. How lucky, how blessed am I. repeat loop #5
".....That’s why I sing this song, I sing it to God. It’s really intimate as well, you can think about it as a relationship between two people in love, too. I never think about it that way, but what’s so cool about that is I think there’s parallels everywhere - in everything in life. I think that that parallel is something that God wants to communicate to us, that he gives us relationships like that, an intimacy like that." -Lead singer Lacey Sturm, on the radio show LA Lloyd’s Rock 30
I just wanted to add that quote so no one can say that you have the song and its meaning wrong. That's what's so beautiful about music is that each person listens to it and interprets it in a totally new meaning and experience. It's beautiful!
The messiah's name was always going to be Jesus according to Zechariah Chapter 6... which is the same name as the post exile high priest ,Yeshua! if the concept of Messiah and God are separate then it doesn't automatically follow that sins can be forgiven.. only God can forgive sins. furthermore if the expectation of Messiah is to reverse the events of Genesis 3 Genesis 6 and Genesis 11 then by Definition messiah has to be more than just a man. Jesus being born of Mary but not of Joseph is not a problem according to Jewish history because I believe during the reign of Queen Alexandra Jewish law made Heritage pass on, by matrilineal Bases. A basis for the Trinity can be established in the Old Testament by passages like Amos 4:11Isaiah 48:16.. and Judges chapter 2:1 and Daniel 7:9-14 Support for the idea of God becoming man in Scripture are Deuteronomy 18 verses 15 to 18 Focus of the verse speaks of the coming Messiah coming from lineage of Israel like unto moses. We also have Exodus chapter 23 verse 20 and 21 the context of which is speaking about the future Endeavor of going over Jordan then we come to Joshua chapter 5 verses 13 to 15 and the context of this passage is having just gone over the Jordan into Israel. Another proof of this idea perhaps most glaringly Jeremiah chapter 1 verses 4-10... the first thing you want to pay attention to is titles in verse 4 and verse 9... Hashem and the word of the Lord these titles are used interchangeably there's some definite implication there but the point of emphasis here is verse 9 because it goes a little further than just anthropomorphic language. Now the next concern is did Jesus ever claim to be God? And for this the scriptures I would provide are Matthew 26:64 Jesus directly quotes Daniel 7:13 John 10:34 Jesus claims to be the judge in Psalm 82 referencing verse 6 In John 10 versus Both 11 and 14 Jesus Yeshua says that he is the Good Shepherd and you can cross-reference this with the very first line of Psalm 23. In Mark chapter 6 starting from verse 45 Jesus walks on the water this is something designated in the Old Testament for something only God (job 9:8) can do this separates Jesus from the other people who did miracles. Where another claim would be is in the fact that Jesus forgives sins, off the top of my head is Mark chapter 2 now certainly there have always been Messianic claimants but none of them have ever claimed to forgive sins. Now the question becomes why would Jesus so secretive why didn't he just come out and say that he was the Lord God of Israel?... well one scripture off the top of my head of that I would provide here that might be interesting is this Matthew 16:20 "then he commanded his disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ"... my suggestion to you here, would be that the crucifixion how to take place at a certain place at a certain time and under a specific set of circumstances. Please Look into all the scriptures I made mention here I hope this helps even one person Hashem bless everyone of you... in the name of Jesus both son and God of David king of Israel, amen!
It was in a small town called Azle Texas Victory Christian Center or VCC for short. It was awesome!! I got a drumstick signed by her and the band but idk what happened to it lol also a drum pad but I’m sure my parents threw it out
She spoke at our church today in New Mexico. Amazing testimony. Her vocals were absolutely electrifying and mesmerizing in person. She is an absolute blessing of authenticity ❤️
This song helped me when my ex committed suicide. I remember crying myself to this for years, now it's more of a memory of him. It's been 9 years & this song will always be there for my darkest nights. I miss you Jay ❤
When Jesus meets evanescence. Edit: DAMN THANKS FOR ALL THE LIKES YALL ❤️❤️ Just moved out of an apartment to live in my camper trailer on the road with my animals (babies🤣)! First video of why & how it came about coming to my channel soon! Show love if you’re interested ❤️❤️🚙🏠
Dude this sounds utterly goood... how is that 13 years have passed until I've finally reach this vid... The only thing I know is that I most definetely want more of this!!!
Then you’ll be delighted to know that Lacey Sturm, the lead singer for this video is still making music to this day and it brings back ALL the Flyleaf memories
Who else is jamming to this song 10+ yrs after this song was released? This takes me back to when times were good. If I could live in an Era forever,for me,this would be it.
To think this whole time I was thinking this song was about an ex boyfriend haunting her.... but it was about our lord and saviour... can’t say I’m mad at it. This song slaps
Listening to this again makes me want to cry. I miss being in high school and watching twilight whenever I could. The nostalgia it brings. I’ll never get those feel free moments again 😢
I don't care what anyone says, Lacey is a top 5 female vocalist in this genre. Maybe even without the gender qualifier. She has such incredible range and bleeds emotion. Hard to find real emotion from this area but Flyleaf gives me chills every single time I come back.
I never want to understand why people obscure the message like this. As a Christian, today... This speaks to me. I understand the symbology of the video and the lyrics perfectly. As a lost person, years ago, in my youth? I hadn't the slightest clue what your music was about and none of my peers who heard it on the radio did either. We just liked how it sounded. I wish that this fence-sitting message style would either bolden up or die out, and I know from the Word the Lord feels the same.
I'm not religious but after hearing Lacey's captivating story about finding God...I kinda wish something like that existed for me... wish I believed that strongly about something. Wish I knew that passion and unwavering belief... 🖤🖤🖤
That same God that she encountered wants you to feel the same way. Jesus loves you and truly cares about the relationship we have with him (: God bless.
@@maskonfilteroff3145 everyone needs saving, it’s not just about here on earth. At the end of your life you will give an account to your wrong doings. You absolutely have the freedom to choose not to and of course no one can force anything on you. Us believers are just here to warn others of that and also spread the good news that the Lord came to bring. God bless (:
This is a good song and after being 35 I still think so However there's something else that I want to address because usually people who listen to this are in the mode of thinking that any argument can be settled merely with emotion people have unknowingly adopted a worldview that says that "truth is relative rather than objective" or "if it feels good it must be right" this idea goes right under people's nose in plain sight however if this idea has taken to its full extent than this means that no one has any logical right or justification to complain about anyting.... for the person that thinks that truth is only relative I would only ask what keeps them from falling into nihilism (.. idea that nothing matters everything that everyone ever hope for a struggle for is ultimately meaningless life is meaningless)... because relativism lead you in two ways either nihilism or hedonism (Hedonism being the idea of living only for pleasure)... and we all know that can turn bad really quick then one will potentially find themselves justifying what find detestable... so for the person reading this, if this indeed applies to you or someone you know, then some food for thought...why would one be engaging in an idea such as the truth being relative or relativism when it potentially leads to so much harm, and based on an historical account of human nature, often does?... Ultimately the idea of Live and Let Live sounds good to our ears but does harm because it really devolve down to I'll let you get away with what you want to get away with if you let me get away with what I want to get away with.... and again with human nature being what it is, why even promote an idea like that?.
I love Flyleaf so much they remind me of a heavier verison of Avril Lavigne imo. U should also check out Skillet, Red, Demon Hunter, Impending Doom, P.O.D. and Fireflight I love those bands as well 💜💯🎸
Jesús want that you know about He. If you die now. Where will you pass the ethernity? If you do not know You should listening www.bbnrario.org Here you can find the answer of the whole life
Was so blessed to meet Lacey and her husband at one of their last shows, she spent 20 mins talking to me and my husband and proceeded to pray with us and lay hands on both us. That girl is a powerhouse filled with the holy spirit, every time I saw them live I would be just be so overwhelmed with emotion I would just sob in worship..So awesome to see a all Christian band who are proud to be Christians and write music go mainstream and end up on rock radio and regular charts.
I got goosebumps reading this!! I'm so happy for you that you got to have that experience!! I know exactly what you are saying as I feel that way just hearing about a fellow Christian experiencing something so beautiful 💜
Im curious about something. I met them with the new singer on the drowning pool tour. I forget what year but from I remember it seemed more quiet about faith even on stage than about rocking. I am a very devout Christian. I love Jesus with all my heart and soul. So I was thrown off a bit by it. Im not familiar with the band but was there something going on with the band at that point? I always wondered if we met them at a night where God asked if they were at a place they wanted or He wanted.
Coming back so many years later and I finally understand the deep meaning. "I can feel You all around me, thickening the air I'm breathing, holding onto what I'm feeling, savoring this heart that's healing" is talking about the Holy Spirit moving in the midst of prayer/worship. I experienced this multiple times while saying my prayers at nighttime. Believers rejoice because it is the craziest yet calmest peace and most incredible enveloping experience. We know everything will be okay because the Spirit reassures us like the Bible says He would. I'm so thankful for Jesus' sacrifice and His asking of the Father to deliver the Spirit to us. Thank You, God
I just want to say that I 100% agree with that, but I have known that for a while now, I don't think of it as only the holy spirit though, it is more then that, it is power and love flowing through you or others to help the ones they care for. It has nothing to do with ONE THING but has to do with everything.
She is happy to be alive. She contemplated suicide, and I think she talked to her mom about it, and her mom brought her to church. I guess the Pastor keyed in on this and talked to her about suicide and Jesus' Love, and she ended up becoming Christian after attending a few more times. That's at least how I was told the story goes. This song has parallel meanings that could be interpreted as love for Jesus or love for a significant other. Either way, this is good music. Not this mumble rap BS nowadays lol
This man's art and passion has pulled me through some rough ass times. From addiction to recovery and everything in between. ❤His voice is straight dopamine.

Out of all the Christian Bands out there, Flyleaf is really in tune with channeling faith into their music while keeping up a suspense or "mystery of the kingdom of heaven" so it doesn't stick out as inherently religious and pushes people away. Just a great song, and fantastic band.
The reason this Christian Rock band succeeded where so many before failed is because they're not over the top with the lyrics. They're not like Jesus this, Moses that, etc. They understand their audience. People don't listen to Rock music to have religious messages slammed at them. If people wanted that, they'd go to church or listen to traditional gospel music. Flyleaf found a perfect balance with delivering their message subtly enough that it will appeal to almost anyone, Christian or not, while not being so over the top about it that one feels as though one is at church listening to them. I love this band.
Didn't even know they were a Christian Rock band until you mentioned it. I've always liked them because of their style and ambiguity of lyrics' that can be interpreted in what ever way you want. So yea, your point stands!
When you can relate to the lyrics spiritually regardless of which religion you may follow is when it's a winner to me. I'm not christian nor religious, but I've always like Flyleaf and their lyrics.
God is so beautiful, all the Glory to his name pray for her that God may keep blessing Lacey and protecting her and keep using her to make awesome music for the Lord
For those who don't know the story of the lyrics, when she was 15 she was addicted to heroine, and at 16 she decided to kill herself. THE DAY she was going to end it, she had an encounter with God and from that she wrote these lyrics.
Heroin withdrawal causes hallucinations. Generally, when you're close enough to death to see it, the realization of true nothingness scares the absolute shit out of you. At that age it will anyways.
@@chileball8984 yeah when I was younger my mom told me it was a I refused to believe her. Now I can clearly hear it. But that's the amazing thing about music, it is whatever you interpret it as.

I told you hoping not to offend you that your voice was so beautiful and strong, it reminded of Amy from Evanescence. You smiled and said thank you Tyra 😊.

Lol Christian IS the only good message
My hands are searching for You
My arms are outstretched towards You
I feel You on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for You
There's fire risin' through my being
Burning, I'm not used to seeing You
I'm alive (alive), I'm alive (alive)
I can feel You all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
My hands float up above me
And You whisper, You love me
And I begin to fade into our secret place
The music makes me sway
The angels singing, say, "We are alone with You"
I am alone and they are too with You
I'm alive (alive), I'm alive (alive)
I can feel You all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
And so I cry (holy)
The light is white (holy)
And I see You...
I'm alive (I'm alive), I'm alive (I'm alive)
I'm alive...
I can feel You all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
Take my hand, I give it to You
Now You own me, all I am
You said, You would never leave me
I believe You, I believe
I can feel You all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healed
Thank you so much

I played this song when I was a teenager I didn't know it was a Christian song . GLORY TO GOD ❤
After everything I've gone through, I'm still alive because of Jesus.
They may be a Christian band, but these lyrics can be interpreted in several ways. Its how we the listener perceive it. That’s the beauty of art ❤️
Exactly, the beauty rests in how the viewer can interpret words and song. Like you said, that's the beauty. Much respect for this comment.
Facts
they never claimed to be a Christian band..she says the way she sings her music she thinks about her religion but they werent a "Christian band" :)
403l2 they do preach about Jesus a lot all you have to do is find a live video from like 13 years ago. So yes they are lol
@@acousticcoverjams8602 i mean the ex lead singer has said many times they arent but ok
Man coming back to flyleaf after years and hearing the chorus brings me life.
Brings me hope that I’m not the only one here !
Makes me really nostalgic :(((
Really nice stuff

2024 who’s here?
Weird because you just post this.. I am 😂😂
Here with my son I was 13 now he’s same age discovering and I’m reliving my childhood
Yeah we still here.
Yep
Me
My mom loves Flyleaf. I grew up listening to their songs 'Sick' and 'Fully Alive' but this is definitely my favorite. This era of music is my favorite place. I wish it could be like this again. Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Linkin Park, Seether, my childhood.
Never heard of my childhood. I'll have to check them out 👍
Same
I was saying those bands were my childhood.
@@willowbeatricesheer I'm sorry it was a bad joke probably like a dad joke yeah know haha! I get chu
😄 I couldn't tell for sure
I feel like the majority of us discovered this when we were in middle school. Shit, music hit so much differently back then, but I feel is more appreciated the older we got.
i sure did in 7th grade of 2009 my brother got me into flyleaf myself couldn't stop listening due having a huge on Lacey my brother and cousin tease me saying "Jonathan gots a woody watching Lacey sing"
Same. Like 8th grade... now I just listen to it to remember the innocent rebellious fun side of childhood
Absolutely you never really get into meanings into you reach an older age these songs hit different tones inside with every listen
I've just gotten into Flyleaf early this month , and I've been watching all of their videos , I sang "Run To You", twice , and "Life Screams", by Lacey Sturm . I'm going to sing this song tomorrow . I'm so excited !!! I can't get enough of this song . I absolutely love it !!!! I lost count how many times I've watched this video , and the one with lyrics , in the last couple of days . Seriously !! And , I'm going to get Lacey Sturm's CD , "Life Screams", next month . Yes !! I love Flyleaf and Lacey Sturm . This is great music , and I really love to rock out , and sing with passion , too . I'm 51 years old , and I enjoy singing , dancing , and writing , as Jesus has called me to do . This is so rewarding and satisfying , and yes , Jesus is very exciting !!! This music kicks a.. !!!!
I've also just recently , as in early this month , gotten into Skillet and Red . I love those guys !!!! I'm going to get Skillet's new CD , "Victorious", and the one that came before that , "Unleashed Beyond"- Deluxe Edition , this month , and in the last couple of days , I've watched 20 videos from Red . Skillet and Red also kick a.. !!! In a couple of weeks , if there is time to sing 2 songs , on Friday , the 8th , I'm going to sing , "Mystery Of You", and either "Yours Again", or "Hold Me Now", by Red . It's really hard to decide . They're both really great songs . I love to belt it out when I sing . It is so much fun !!!
I heard this song over 10 years ago and I fell in love with it.
10 years on I'm now a Christian,
Jesus Christ was calling me to this song even then
It's crazy, after all this time, how your music has never deluted. Always making me feel whole inside. Your message warms us, it fills the void within. Thank you for what you have done, it's more than you will ever realize. God bless, we love you.
It's 2022 and I'm still blasting this from my high school emo days

I feel immediately emo when listening to this
Before i found out this was a religious song i honestly thought it was about drug addiction..
It actually is, just in a different way.
Domicile Conflict exactly.
Says a lot about religion
It's about a lot. That too. And God. The devil. Abuse. Her trauma. It is everything, guys. We are not in her head!

I’m here because I was playing Call of Duty and my buddy goes “I can feel them all around me” and I’ve been singing this song for days.
Your buddy’s got good taste!

You can't fake that much passion. I wish I had that much passion towards....anything.
Bro Im not tryna sound weird or anything.. lol.. and i dont mind your religion its cooll.. but.. since I became a christian and reading the bible depth came In my heart and passion comes with ease hehe
Take mushrooms and realise tat god is all around you
Wow. What a pathetic druggie.
Jordan Eva Yes! One of God's gifts to man ... ;)
Kris Luh Yeah, no thanks. I was raised Christian and no longer believe in its teachings. Logic > blind faith
im not religious but this song just hits different
Same, I love the passion in the music.
because being religious and having raw-real encounters with God are two completely different things these days my dude.
Lacey Sturm's voice does that.
I'm an atheist but I do like this song.
I'm not able to believe, but I feel all of the faith that the whole band puts into his song. It honestly have me shivers when I first understood the message of the song.
The whole album is brilliant.
Life is so hard but Gods love gives me strength I hope it does the same for all of you ❤✝️
Most of the goofs here don't even believe 🤣✝️
i never heard of this band. But there's this woman that i am madly in love with and she is exactly and everything i've ever or could ever want, and she sent me this song and said "That is my song about you. That is about you. Completely." And I'm sitting here sobbing with happiness that the person I've always wanted most in this world feels this way about me. How lucky, how blessed am I.
repeat loop #5
".....That’s why I sing this song, I sing it to God. It’s really intimate as well, you can think about it as a relationship between two people in love, too. I never think about it that way, but what’s so cool about that is I think there’s parallels everywhere - in everything in life. I think that that parallel is something that God wants to communicate to us, that he gives us relationships like that, an intimacy like that." -Lead singer Lacey Sturm, on the radio show LA Lloyd’s Rock 30
I just wanted to add that quote so no one can say that you have the song and its meaning wrong. That's what's so beautiful about music is that each person listens to it and interprets it in a totally new meaning and experience. It's beautiful!
She came to the church I used to attend years ago when I was in the youth program and she is truly amazing.

The messiah's name was always going to be Jesus according to Zechariah Chapter 6... which is the same name as the post exile high priest ,Yeshua!
if the concept of Messiah and God are separate then it doesn't automatically follow that sins can be forgiven.. only God can forgive sins. furthermore if the expectation of Messiah is to reverse the events of Genesis 3 Genesis 6 and Genesis 11 then by Definition messiah has to be more than just a man.
Jesus being born of Mary but not of Joseph is not a problem according to Jewish history because I believe during the reign of Queen Alexandra Jewish law made Heritage pass on, by matrilineal Bases.
A basis for the Trinity can be established in the Old Testament by passages like Amos 4:11Isaiah 48:16.. and Judges chapter 2:1 and Daniel 7:9-14
Support for the idea of God becoming man in Scripture are Deuteronomy 18 verses 15 to 18 Focus of the verse speaks of the coming Messiah coming from lineage of Israel like unto moses.
We also have Exodus chapter 23 verse 20 and 21 the context of which is speaking about the future Endeavor of going over Jordan then we come to Joshua chapter 5 verses 13 to 15 and the context of this passage is having just gone over the Jordan into Israel.
Another proof of this idea perhaps most glaringly Jeremiah chapter 1 verses 4-10... the first thing you want to pay attention to is titles in verse 4 and verse 9... Hashem and the word of the Lord these titles are used interchangeably there's some definite implication there but the point of emphasis here is verse 9 because it goes a little further than just anthropomorphic language.
Now the next concern is did Jesus ever claim to be God? And for this the scriptures I would provide are Matthew 26:64 Jesus directly quotes Daniel 7:13
John 10:34 Jesus claims to be the judge in Psalm 82 referencing verse 6
In John 10 versus Both 11 and 14 Jesus Yeshua says that he is the Good Shepherd and you can cross-reference this with the very first line of Psalm 23.
In Mark chapter 6 starting from verse 45 Jesus walks on the water this is something designated in the Old Testament for something only God (job 9:8) can do this separates Jesus from the other people who did miracles.
Where another claim would be is in the fact that Jesus forgives sins, off the top of my head is Mark chapter 2
now certainly there have always been Messianic claimants but none of them have ever claimed to forgive sins.
Now the question becomes why would Jesus so secretive why didn't he just come out and say that he was the Lord God of Israel?... well one scripture off the top of my head of that I would provide here that might be interesting is this Matthew 16:20 "then he commanded his disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ"... my suggestion to you here, would be that the crucifixion how to take place at a certain place at a certain time and under a specific set of circumstances.
Please Look into all the scriptures I made mention here I hope this helps even one person
Hashem bless everyone of you... in the name of Jesus both son and God of David king of Israel, amen!
Where?
It was in a small town called Azle Texas Victory Christian Center or VCC for short. It was awesome!! I got a drumstick signed by her and the band but idk what happened to it lol also a drum pad but I’m sure my parents threw it out

Listening to this again makes me want to cry. I miss being in high school and watching twilight whenever I could. The nostalgia it brings. I’ll never get those feel free moments again 😢
I don't care what anyone says, Lacey is a top 5 female vocalist in this genre. Maybe even without the gender qualifier. She has such incredible range and bleeds emotion. Hard to find real emotion from this area but Flyleaf gives me chills every single time I come back.
Who are the other five?
Eh, more like the best vocalist in the genre. But the rest of your comment I agree with.

I think of when i was younger laying outside in thunderstorms at night just me an my lord its a great feeling that she convey s perfectly
My husband likes her music too i was surprised shes wounderful
I never want to understand why people obscure the message like this.
As a Christian, today... This speaks to me. I understand the symbology of the video and the lyrics perfectly.
As a lost person, years ago, in my youth? I hadn't the slightest clue what your music was about and none of my peers who heard it on the radio did either. We just liked how it sounded.
I wish that this fence-sitting message style would either bolden up or die out, and I know from the Word the Lord feels the same.
This is probably the most backhanded compliment I've ever given. There is a compliment in there, rest assured. I say all this lovingly.
I love my lord and savior Jesus thank you father God
I don’t think we’ll ever get someone like her again. It was truly a special time when she was performing.
shes a drug addict so......
Now we have Jen Ledger 😇

This woman is undoubtedly one of the most adorable vocal performers in the history of rock.
This is a good song and after being 35 I still think so However there's something else that I want to address because usually people who listen to this are in the mode of thinking that any argument can be settled merely with emotion people have unknowingly adopted a worldview that says that "truth is relative rather than objective" or "if it feels good it must be right" this idea goes right under people's nose in plain sight however if this idea has taken to its full extent than this means that no one has any logical right or justification to complain about anyting.... for the person that thinks that truth is only relative I would only ask what keeps them from falling into nihilism (.. idea that nothing matters everything that everyone ever hope for a struggle for is ultimately meaningless life is meaningless)... because relativism lead you in two ways either nihilism or hedonism (Hedonism being the idea of living only for pleasure)... and we all know that can turn bad really quick then one will potentially find themselves justifying what find detestable... so for the person reading this, if this indeed applies to you or someone you know, then some food for thought...why would one be engaging in an idea such as the truth being relative or relativism when it potentially leads to so much harm, and based on an historical account of human nature, often does?...
Ultimately the idea of Live and Let Live sounds good to our ears but does harm because it really devolve down to I'll let you get away with what you want to get away with if you let me get away with what I want to get away with.... and again with human nature being what it is, why even promote an idea like that?.

Was so blessed to meet Lacey and her husband at one of their last shows, she spent 20 mins talking to me and my husband and proceeded to pray with us and lay hands on both us. That girl is a powerhouse filled with the holy spirit, every time I saw them live I would be just be so overwhelmed with emotion I would just sob in worship..So awesome to see a all Christian band who are proud to be Christians and write music go mainstream and end up on rock radio and regular charts.

Im curious about something. I met them with the new singer on the drowning pool tour. I forget what year but from I remember it seemed more quiet about faith even on stage than about rocking. I am a very devout Christian. I love Jesus with all my heart and soul. So I was thrown off a bit by it. Im not familiar with the band but was there something going on with the band at that point? I always wondered if we met them at a night where God asked if they were at a place they wanted or He wanted.

I am not even remotely a religious person, that said this song is beautiful. Good music is good music, that’s what matters to me.
Thank you Jesus Christ my Lord and Saviour the one true god all knees will bow
Coming back so many years later and I finally understand the deep meaning. "I can feel You all around me, thickening the air I'm breathing, holding onto what I'm feeling, savoring this heart that's healing" is talking about the Holy Spirit moving in the midst of prayer/worship. I experienced this multiple times while saying my prayers at nighttime. Believers rejoice because it is the craziest yet calmest peace and most incredible enveloping experience. We know everything will be okay because the Spirit reassures us like the Bible says He would. I'm so thankful for Jesus' sacrifice and His asking of the Father to deliver the Spirit to us. Thank You, God
I just want to say that I 100% agree with that, but I have known that for a while now, I don't think of it as only the holy spirit though, it is more then that, it is power and love flowing through you or others to help the ones they care for. It has nothing to do with ONE THING but has to do with everything.
Amen! She has a beautiful testimony!
I beg your pardon?
@@bogeythedog163 what you an edgy something?
when she sings "im alive" i always start to cry, i dont know why, she sounds so happy
She is happy to be alive. She contemplated suicide, and I think she talked to her mom about it, and her mom brought her to church. I guess the Pastor keyed in on this and talked to her about suicide and Jesus' Love, and she ended up becoming Christian after attending a few more times. That's at least how I was told the story goes. This song has parallel meanings that could be interpreted as love for Jesus or love for a significant other. Either way, this is good music. Not this mumble rap BS nowadays lol
i am glad i got to see her sing live, was around 10 years ago

I revisit this song sometimes when I need to be reminded that the lord is always around even when I feel completely alone..
If they played this at my church I would go every Sunday😭
Out of all the Christian Bands out there, Flyleaf is really in tune with channeling faith into their music while keeping up a suspense or "mystery of the kingdom of heaven" so it doesn't stick out as inherently religious and pushes people away. Just a great song, and fantastic band.
Skillet did this pretty well back in the day(or still does idk i havent listened to anything past 2010)
Killswitch Engage
ABR
More than anything I feel like they actually put effort into making something that they enjoyed.
Have you tried creed
I’m guessing you weren’t around when Creed was
The reason this Christian Rock band succeeded where so many before failed is because they're not over the top with the lyrics. They're not like Jesus this, Moses that, etc. They understand their audience. People don't listen to Rock music to have religious messages slammed at them. If people wanted that, they'd go to church or listen to traditional gospel music. Flyleaf found a perfect balance with delivering their message subtly enough that it will appeal to almost anyone, Christian or not, while not being so over the top about it that one feels as though one is at church listening to them. I love this band.
Didn't even know they were a Christian Rock band until you mentioned it. I've always liked them because of their style and ambiguity of lyrics' that can be interpreted in what ever way you want. So yea, your point stands!
Underoath was way bigger, and emery
She is sharing her experience strength and hope. Anyone can read out of the book and call it lyrics. It is special.
When you can relate to the lyrics spiritually regardless of which religion you may follow is when it's a winner to me. I'm not christian nor religious, but I've always like Flyleaf and their lyrics.
@@jackpage2588 I’m a huge Underoath fan, but that’s silly to say that Underoath and Emery were bigger than Flyleaf

For those who don't know the story of the lyrics, when she was 15 she was addicted to heroine, and at 16 she decided to kill herself. THE DAY she was going to end it, she had an encounter with God and from that she wrote these lyrics.

i've heard that she was a pretty crazy youth... but its because of that she wrote good shit and became famous.

@@chileball8984 yeah when I was younger my mom told me it was a I refused to believe her. Now I can clearly hear it. But that's the amazing thing about music, it is whatever you interpret it as.

Me
I'm still listening to their music.
It feels great to have this gem, secular music is hard to let go of, God bless
HEy You, I remember when I was just 21 and you came to a small town in Arkansas, Batesville in fact. I met you, got your CD and signed. I told you hoping not to offend you that your voice was so beautiful and strong, it reminded of Amy from Evanescence. You smiled and said thank you Tyra 😊. I still believe that to be true to this day, but now you have formed your own path of inspiration for others which is the most beautiful thing we can do. Keep Rocking it Amy 🤘🏻🎸
❤❤❤

I believe my parents are my "gods" however I don't judge difference. I'm just glad to be "Alive"
@@codyderickson0 I'm glad your parents are good to you, enough to where you consider them your 'gods'. My dad threatened to kill my family and then take out as many people as possible before killing himself. Instead, he killed himself last year and I found him. It reminds me just how different the world is for everyone and how much religion plays a part in our lives. RIP Dad, even though you hurt me, I still miss you.
As an atheist I apologize to all Christians who have met the toxic atheists. I promise not all of us are bitter and mean. You keep doing you
We also apologize for the toxic Christians who try to push religion on to you.
I apologize for the Christians that have tried pushing their religion on y'all
Yes!!! I love your attitude. I'm so sick (no pun intended) of people bashing each other for their religious beliefs. Why can't we all just get along?? It's so sad :/
@@psimillie For real, why can't we just respect each other's beliefs?:(
@@angela-im4oo I'm pagan and believe in a lot of different gods (including the Judaic god aka Christian god), and I respect all religions as long as people aren't forcing their regions on others! :D Or are cults- Cults aren't good-
