[June160x]

Um can we stop talking about religion conspiracies and enjoy the video?

[FallenShadows9999]

Do they have seether in heaven? :/

[marike41]

@FallenShadows9999 God, i hope there is this great music to listen to there up above

[RockerKing23]

I feel touched...

[tontobones]

@crossifudied ,what you mean is there is no evidence.I am a guns n roses fan but i think this is a great song,a song with a story

[kaosboy14]

Seether is soooo amazing.

[jigsaw371]

not all people have religon realize that music can be in anyway to just have hope which is my most suicides happen people loose all hope that life will getter music can help them really look in their lifes to think on wat can affect all whom love them

[ientertainmentZA]

This song saves lives!! THUMBS UP TO SAVE ANOTHER LIFE! :)

[jbop88]

shaun morgan is my idol

[Michaelmop]

This song doesn't only touch 'kids', sir.

[yabbapcdfg]

this song saved me 2! cant wait to see them live in 2 weeks at the richmond raceway!!

[pfcad198]

This is a well made video with a great message.....one of my favorites ~~ break out of the tunnel vision of depression, look around you and see all that is good in this world and "Rise Above This"~~

[FireflyFanatic3]

"If this video is able to connect with one person, and save a life, it would definitely be a mission accomplished"

well, I can safely say it has reached your definition of success, because I know for certain that it saved my life. It's so painful to listen to, and it cuts me to the core to hear it, but it is so moving and so real.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Shaun. I have so much respect for you, for making this song and this video, it has been so influential, it has saved my life. Thank you.

[henckel15]

this song helped me out when i was going through a rough feeling

[kempokiai]

People Barely know anything about respect, nor do they care about anyone else. Its all about one person and thats themselves.

Animals are those people that will climb over their own kind for anything they want. In my eyes, they don't even deserve to be called "Human"

Human Beings actually care for one another. They find time and reason to give to their own kind and combine to achieve something greater. Respect and Trust is mutual and its not about who is first, its about who's here with us

[Chikkolle]

"hitting myself instead of the drums... so professional" xD

[LazyQ8i]

ppl who commit suicide dont rest in peace

they go straight to hell :P

am just sayin

[chronorador]

@LazyQ8i Show some respect for the people who lost a loved one to suicide ! insensitive basterd

[frostyh81]

@LazyQ8i People who think it's okay to say that so bluntly have something wrong in thier heart. That "thing" that is wrong in their heart is what's keeping them from going to heaven. If they are not going to heaven, they are going to hell.

[NMages20]

@LazyQ8i thats why you, my friend, are an idiot =)

[GuitarPlayer96100]

@LazyQ8i You are a dick do you realize that when a person commits suicide it effects everyone around them it's a sad thing for someone to end a life but it's even sadder for someone to end their own life.

[sonicyouth1982]

@LazyQ8i You, my friend, are a douchebag. To say the so nonchalantly, you should really check to see if you have a heart, or a brain for that matter. Oh by the way It's spelt "people" not "ppl".

Just sayin. :)

[dadgadcan]

The hardest thing about losing a friend to suicide is blaming yourself for not seeing it comming.I lost a very close friend,a large piece of me and a fellow performer and the world lost an awesome person and vocalist 3 yrs ago. Thinking of you always.

[a7xfan000001]

i have listen to this song many times and it really made me think about suicide because i was think bout doing it but after i saw this i new i couldnt put my family though that. its a selfish act

[Extfighter]

RIP Eugene Welgemoed.

[zachattack19955]

ive tried it then watched this video of the effects

[TheFableDragon1]

R.I.P Eugen we will miss you!!!!!! :( :( :(

[falsecomment]

Fake

[KyleRulebreaker]

@falsecomment 

[ImpactWarning]

even after such a lost and still be capable to make an emotinal song about it

thats something we all can look up to

[mirdan71]

this song helped me thru my darkest hours and stopped me from doing something that would have hurt so many.....u guys rock especially u shaun xxx

[DJDhananjayK]

It would be so funny if the guy at 2:52 would fall and hit his head to the wall xD

[jaso456852]

I dont know... people tell me they would be happy if i killed myself... still thinking about it...

[srs2388]

@jaso456852 Don't do it... someone that can tell anyone that doesn't even deserve the air they breathe and deserve to burn in hell.

I don't know you but I wouldn't be happy if you killed yourself.

[wolfeman85]

@jaso456852 wow those are some cold people to tell you that bro

[FireflyFanatic3]

@jaso456852 find someone to talk to, really, do.

This song is so powerful, and sometimes so triggering to me because it is so closely associated with a time when I was contemplating and even attempting suicide, to the point where I was on the brink of walking to the local art gallery and jump of the roof terrace. But this son kept playing in my head ...

when you think of killing yourself next, think of this song because it REALLY does affect other people, no matter what you think, you matter!

[FireflyFanatic3]

@jaso456852 find someone to talk to, please, please do. It's taken a lot of support and councelling, but I have gone from being severely depressed and suicidal to the point of hospitalisation, but now, a year from then, I am happy and coping with life and what it throws at me. Find someone, please.

talk to me if you really want to, I don't mind, I'm happy to help, really.

I care

if you believe no one else does

I care

God cares

xx

[BurnDownNorthPole]

I can relate to this song a lot, Haha, I was depressed for a long time.

[hinder1312]

Why would u dislike this. its so emotional. 

[KiaraTier]

This song and video did save a life... mine! Thank you for both the song and video!

[superfish0012]

well,yes,fuck the easter bunny,cuz,the tooth fairy,santa,and all that other SHIT is fake,it's all ur parents,that's why ur parents say to go to bed early on christmas eve,so they can put stuff under the tree

[hammad313]

There is a God, we have not transformed from the monkeys.

[concrete1213]

does anyone bother combining things together... even if we did evolve from monkeys how did the monkeys get created?

[undeadgamer0]

@concrete1213 and why are there still monkeys? XD What did only a handful of monkeys turn into people lulz

[dwsnare]

So cool man. And the clip is their best ever i recken. Come to think of it, all their clips are good.

Get your asses down under you guys, wanna see ya's in concert.

[CirqueDuCloud]

Hahaha fuck yeah! Five thumbs down.

Mission accomplished.

[lcddg]

[jynxblood1]

[coyote7272]

[hockeynut464]

the drummer sounds like owen wilson

[rom1324]

Mission accomplished

[animemanga666]

why did he kill himself???

[sodapop43920]

@animemanga666 idiot

[helljason]

every person gets to an stage that feels disconnected from every thing and everyone around, it happened to me too... but if it happen, just sit down n think about it, think about what happened if you end ur life, what it does to others, close ur eyes, take a big sigh n talk to GOD for a while, then U'll feel better... n eventually U'll 4get about everything that happened to u ...

[smashingpuppies123]

@helljason theres no such thing as god if god was real do u really think he would give me a shit life and think bout the homeless maybe ur so called god can help them

[knicksfan3]

its called free will...people make their own decisions down here

[bobm123456]

God is Real. Posting comments like yours makes little sence, u may say that there is no god, but if u at all want to make ppl think he is not real, u will only succeed in ammusing me and other believers, Seether rules, ur comment fails, ill pray for u. Honestly i love u as a human and hope to see u in heaven. someday. and i hope ur like stop's suking. just be thankfull for what u have. :) <3

[gaza592]

People are entitled to their beliefs, so are you, you believe to not believe if that makes sense..anyway, leave 'em be. Nothing you do or say will stop people believing.

[gaza592]

And again, you're entitled to your beliefs. No-one here is being agressive but you.

[ICrossifiedI]

@smashingpuppies123 there is a God, a very loving God. your argument to disprove it is one of the easiest ones for a christian to shoot down.

[smashingpuppies123]

@ICrossifiedI You guys and your religion, Pshh

[ICrossifiedI]

@smashingpuppies123 what about us guys and our religion? can you make an argument against it that can't be easily obliterated? or do you just have to mock it and say it's stupid and false with no substantial evidence to support your claims because there's not much else you can do?

[smashingpuppies123]

@ICrossifiedI okay, where's your "substantial proof" that Go exists?

[ICrossifiedI]

@smashingpuppies123 well the fact that no one has yet disproved it says the same for his existence as the fact that nobody has proven it says against his existence. also, just look around you and think about how amazingly miniscule the chances are that the universe could have created itself the way it is. and look at how there has never been a person that doesn't worship something. most worship a God of some kind. some worship money. we were created to worship.

[smashingpuppies123]

@ICrossifiedI Ok then, explain to me how god got created?

[ICrossifiedI]

@smashingpuppies123 he is infinite. he has no beginning or end. something you'll never understand. neither will anyone else. but his presence is easy to see

[Michaelmop]

@helljason Oh yeah great job on the 'GOD' part, deluded freak. You really helped out some people now. I hope after 1 year you've finally woken up now eh?....

[Tomato9209]

@helljason i know what you mean dude .. i cant say i spoke to God as i aint religiouse... but i tell you what i did do .. wack on my headfones and went through proper music 90's hip hop, soul, reggae, DnB, indie, Rock and so on and so on .. MUSIC is a lifesaver for me and i love it :D

[FireflyFanatic3]

I don't know his situation obviously .. but I kinda know how Eugene felt ...

The only thing that keeps me here is my loved ones ... someday's that's not even been enough.

[terryberry48]

I'm sorry to hear you talk like that, but there are people who care about you, I don't even know you and I care, I enjoy talking to people so message me if you want to talk

[terryberry48]

[TwiztedChesireCat]

[Irock124]

Yeah, I sent that guy message after I posted that comment. Let me explain what happened. I could swear I thought I read "I don't think this song is about suicide". Then I posted that comment and didn't realize until after I posted what he really said. :-) My bad.

[TwiztedChesireCat]

ohhhh okay my bad too :3

[angelflyn2low]

That says alot about Shawn's character, to be able to put all that out in public instead of burying it deep inside himself. Thank you Shawn. I'll never let anything really, REALLY get to me again!
