It is a tough, guy-wrenching song to get through, but, oh my God, he just sings it so perfectly, with such passion and emotion, that I am on the verge of tears after listening to him sing it. Thank you, Rob, for sharing your amazing beautiful voice with us.

    I've been waiting a long time for a performance of this piece that could rival Cynthia in both skill and substance. I'm happy to say I finally got my wish and it's even cooler that it's a male singer. There have been a lot of attempts at this song, but this one finally gets it right. Bravo.

    Lately it seems
    I've lost inspiration
    it feels like it's miles away
    I sleep through the day
    cry through the night time
    caught in an empty space
    It takes effort to fight
    I don't have the strength
    I'm holding on to what's still left of me
    When the life you had planned
    slowly slips through your hands
    When it feels like you just slept through all
    the best years of your life
    When you can't find your way
    When each day is the same
    When you've lost the fight inside of you
    Is there anything worth holding on to?
    It's hard to be strong
    when weakness is stronger
    I'm a prisoner in my own skin
    I'm not good on my own
    I need to be cared for
    Someone to help these days begin
    There are dreams I've let die
    That I just pushed aside
    I need to find out how to turn this dark back into light
    When the warmth disappears
    When it's been one of those years
    When you're running from the truth because your scared of what you might find
    When your heart's beyond repair
    When you wake and no ones there
    When your home consists of only you
    Is there anything worth holding on to
    Maybe tomorrow my heart will reawaken
    And I can find what I've been searching for
    But today I'm tired and I'm running out of strength
    All I know is I can't live like this anymore
    When you're so far from home
    When you've lost all signs of hope
    When you're searching for salvation
    But it feels so far away
    When the words have disappear
    And the melody's unclear
    When there's nothing left inside of you
    Is there anything worth holding on to
    Cause I will still be holding on, to anything worth holding on to

    @codyash3802 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    It’s missing the soul for me in these vocals. He’s too calculated and focused on the technical aspects of the song. It’s literally about someone on the brink of ending their life surveying how they have nothing to live for but he’s more worried about enunciating and placing vibrato in the right spots to really convey such depth that the lyrics demand. It sounds like he tried to copy some Weiss riffs here too but grossly missed the mark on most of them 🧐

      @codyash3802 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@harri6399 Cool. He’s apparently not like that for reasons I already outlined. He’s a theatrical vocalist that, at least here, focused too much on applying his “theater tone and technique” to the song rather than connecting to the sentiment and letting that power his vocal instead. The fact that he’s allegedly suffered from mental illness bears no weight to any of that. If that’s the case, he failed to use source material in experience to connect to the song more.
