This song had such potential with the melody in the verses but unfortunately the "run for cover" chorus is very dime-a-dozen, cookie-cutter, teenie-bopper sounding that cheeses it up. Too bad, I'll stick with the "Heavens" album.
@chaplain327 when i looked at youre comment i thought to myself how music can affect people and how much good it does....this is the best comment any song, video,blog can ever have!!!!
I love these guys. This is one of my favorite songs by them. I consider them punk /emo punk. Mostly because they sing about their emotions and how they feel. Punk to me is when a band doesnt really stick with the cliche or whatever. Seeing as how i cant really find any band that sounds similar to alkaline trio or that sing like about some of the stuff they do, i consider them punk. Blink182 was classified as neopunk, an i consider them punk. Punk is too broad a term to argue over. Alkaline Trio!
@J4RJ4R13INK5 Do you think that posting those old, annoying type of YouTube video comments I see on every fucking video supports the band? Grow brains man.
@peterdowftw I'm just tired of those "x people disliked this they should blah blah blah". Don't you miss the time when YouTube comments were about the videos?
@peterdowftw You dissed me for dissing him and the video was unmentioned and we just argue here so I can say we didn't speak a word about the video. I'm not gonna continue this conversation.
@imbocca yes they are alternative. and for some reason alternative is classifyed with punk. but if you look at real punk compared with real alternative, you can tell the difference by a lot. Thats why they were at warped, just because people see the 2 genres hand in hand
@infectionxxspreading what is punk rock anyway? Its a very subjective term . I mean i wouldn't call the sex pistols or the clash punk but many people would,
@infectionxxspreading now to me those bands are not that punk (doesn't mean your wrong) like i said the term is subjective. I would say bands like stiff little fingers, 7 seconds and UK subs et al.
@swiftyizbest I'm not POSITIVE, but I think it's because he wants the world to be more... peaceful, and not all about war and violence. You can stab someone with knives (and a pen if you're in an office) so he's saying he wants them to apologize for killing people. That's what I THINK, but I'm not sure...
@ilostmypandaa Wow, no offense, but you're evil. This song is from personal experiences, you shouldn't be laughing about that. What the Hell is wrong with you??
Went to see them in Dublin....great show !!! Kind of lost interest, but heard this song and now I love them again. I appreciate bands like this who aren't selling out arena's but they just love writing music and pleasing fans !
@SilasFace Crimson was a great album- my second favorite. But this one's off of Agony and Irony. This album is Matt and Derek's favorite (it was in 09 anyways) but I have to admit, I don't like this one that much.
this song makes me cry i was watching an interview and matt skiba said the first part his for his grandma and the second one his for his wife's grandpa who was in world war 2 and shot himself when he came back but he said he was connected to all the people mentioned in this video i feel so sorry for matt...
I SO know what you mean "run for cover as fast as you can" is a bit corny...but all in all the song rocks and I can relate, so its moving as well. I sorta go into a trance when i hear this song, This version or the Underworld remix.
this song is about his grandpa who fought in world war 2 now all he sees is war so he puts the 45 to his head kills himself ,then his sister who got in a crash and is now in the hospital, i cant remember the rest
@Hinotafandemonfox . I think it has to do with an OIF veteran and his mother that died of cancer. The son shot himself over his mothers grave. I read it in a tattoo magizine that interviewed Alkaline trio.
Hey you hang in there all right. you probabl have more to live for then me, and I understand how ya fell. I may not listen to metal or cut my wrists or wear black but im just as depressed as any who do, well of course ive only attempted suicide 3 times,
I dont know what it is about Alkaline trio songs but when ever Im feeling sad, and I listen to their songs I feel better. like the sadness of some of their songs make my own just melt away. its nice
As a Scottish Trio fan I understand that they don't come here very often and unfortunately I missed the last 2 trips, any more clued up fans know if they are coming here again anytime in the future on indeed anywhere in the UK, I'd be willing to travel Missing them twice was too much :P
this was my friend's favorite band. kind of a hard song to hear, being he shot himself in the head. but it is also uplifting being i'm not the only one out there who has felt this... great song...
They said this is a song that they really feel when playing which made me really wanna hear it and now I can defintiely see why each verse is about another person's death which definitely makes even a coarse person feel something while listening
The album Agony & Irony is a play on Ebony and Ivory
opposites
Alkaline Trio said they didn't write the album with that in mind, but, the album as a whole expressed the idea of opposites and extremes, love to hate, death to life,
which I found led to the Jeckal and Hyde feel of the album, from a new uplifting sound of the Trio to the Classic sadistic dark nature near the end of the album.
Thank you for your intellectual understanding of the song
yeah i relised that on this there were no . . .happy songs. Which i think made it a ton better in a way like the way he sings the songs and the lyrics and all of that. Over adn out is one of my all-timme favorites. Add me as friend :)
i disliked cuz i have the biggest dick in the world, jk i didnt dislike.
