i used to listen to this band when i was a kid, and the kid in the music video looks like me when i was a kid. if i had seen this as a kid, i woulda flipped out
Lifehouse is probably one of the most underrated bands of our time. This song alone shows just how talented they are, and even throughout the different band members, the songs still managed to stay meaningful. Favorite band right here<3
@chestermcfly The boy in the video is stuck in a strange world. It's big, mystical and out of his control. He can struggle to get out of it but can't, like if he's stuck in a sick, cycle carousel. Which the sick, cycle carousel can represent anything that we strive to do but can't.
Lifehouse is simply amazing but they make the weirdest videos...whats up with naked skinny boy in huge world? Weird...maybe because he can't help what's around him and it's so much bigger than him and he can't get out? Maybe. Well whatever the case he needs a new haircut lol I like it better blonde and short
The song kinda reminds me of Arthas in Warcraft, from being Paladin into a DeathKnight then finally being the new Lich King. It has many resemblances to this video which I hope someone would gratefully upload a warcraft version of this starring Arthas of course. Cool song
this song jason wade wrote for when he was in a relation ship with this girl and he said he wrote it about 7 years ago which is about more then that now
and their not a christan band..
(i watched this in a diffrent video) this is an old video .. he has short and blond hair now...)
bands with screams aren't really shitty.they're also good.maybe you just can't appreciate that type of music.if you don't like the music, then probably just look at the lyrics.most of em have good lyrics..i'm just defending the side of louder music..but i also like these stuff..^^
yea i agree but i love lifehouse so much i love bryce and jason and rick! they rock cuse their lifehouse and this is the old lifehouse and an old vid...
this song isnt about god.. u people r dum... all there songs have to do with one person and jason wade means his wife their songs have to either with relationship... and love tords his wife and also pain... and songs that r like mazes and yea but their not a christan band! their a rock band
Although a songwriter may have a certain meaning in mind when writing a song, a really good song touches people on a personal level and the meaning is something different for them. People aren't dumb for having a song mean something completely different for them, it's actually a compliment to the songwriter to create something that can touch people in that way.
Lifehouse songs pretty much plot a course through my own life and give me comfort when i need it but equally upset me when they make me realise what i don't have...
It's about when you're not satisfied with your life, and you feel like you're at the end of your rope. The chorus talks about whatever he's done, it's never good enough. Hence, all the "I Tried" stuff. Then you just realize that your life is a sick cycle carousel, and it's never going to end until you step down from it. Woo. *deep breath*
My old friend sent me this song when he could hold his infatuation for me no longer and admitted everything in an email. Unfortunately, his timing was bad as I was dating someone else at the moment. Since then, I've been in love with this band, but this song makes me die a little inside. He's moved schools, but I really do wonder about him from time to time.
Not even. It's everything. Whatever shitty, awful cycle people get themselves into (which every single person is bound to with one thing or another one time in his/her life) is what this is about, I think. For most people, it is some kind of drugs/alcohol.
Is the song about beating the cycle, or just telling how it never ends? You decide.

The sick cycle of addiction. He explains it perfectly. And you can just see the shame in his eyes.For awhile, I played this song at least ten times a day. It's so true for me.
Wow, Jason looks so much better with his natural brown locks in the older videos. Too blond and washed out these days but still a Rock God all the same...Love this Song!
yeah, for a second I was momentarily stunned because of how ridiculous cute he was. Anyhow. This song has so much great meaning and depth, not at all like those typical whining junk we have nowadays.
Lifehouse is not a christian group. Jason Wade was part of a christian group called Blyss a long time ago, before they changed their name to Lifehouse. He said in an interview that they are not a christian group, but some of the songs he wrote are spiritual or can be interpreted that way. He said he wanted to be able to write about anything he chose (also, notice that most of their songs are actually not spirutual). :-)
This song is same exactly like my life...i can't beleive it,but hell yeah lifehouse is rock!!!!i like the entire of his album..i feel much better after listen to this song..hope jason wade will never stop doing his music...
Listening to this in 2012!!!! Such a Great song takes me back : )
