[icreatedsocks]

Gay.

[Olka134]

omg awesome <3 !!

[MDavis4291]

hes pointing out how dum u people are hello look it up jesus is plagiarsed from other prophets dating back to 3000bc enter horus. 12 desciples ,crucified, started at 30 sound familar 3000 years before jesus. nuff said

[jewels5073]

Btw The Used is my Favorite band

[jewels5073]

If this song is not reaching out to you there's something wrong. Bert is saying what other people are afraid to say for the sake of ridicule. People now or days pray just to feel safe and that's not how it works you have to commit and dedicate yourself to God. Little do the people that just wants to feel safe know your prayers only go as high as your ceiling. You're better off going it alone.

[kinnkilla2]

So much anger on here from everyone, Why can't we just stop with our own opinions for once and enjoy the music? I love Bert and The Used regaurdless of religious views.

[lunartreadinglegacy]

The chorus always sends chills down my spine :)

[chrissy1234567891000]

im 11 nd i luuvv thi song nd i think that the used needs more credit their sooo awesome

[kinnkilla2]

@chrissy1234567891000 haha they have been around since before you even knew what music was. I am telling you kid they have a ton of respect and a lot of devoted fans, me being one of them. Look into some of their older music if you like this song, a great song of theirs that I love is "Poetic Tragedy" that's from I think like 2001-03 somewhere around those years. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

[aelove456]

i fucking love this. my boyfriend shows me all thiss<3

[sotojoseph123]

OMGizzle guys Bert used to be Mormon but now he is Christian\catholic

[Dignity1995]

The beginning is the end of Watered Down isnt it?

[deweyreesemalcom]

@Dignity1995 yes it is :)

[ASexyNarwhal]

@deweyreesemalcom INDEED.

[geekyfake]

i love all the songs but this is my favorite

[Duckensweet]

i apologize to all that got the wrong impression Christians are not god by far don't let them misguided you im not christian but i love god you don't have to be in a religion god die on the cross for are sins we are sinners he know that and yet still loves us god is a good god don't listen to the sinners. god loves use all gay straight or lesbian transgender in all. by the way love this song and the band.

[NosConsurgo]

@Duckensweet He's singing about you ^

The Bible goes completely against every word you just said.

I'm not an extremist, but the Bible most definitely has a message you're supposed to read and follow. While you may believe another religion, I respect that, but at the same time, the point of religion is for it to be religion. Yes, it's a relationship with God, but there are rules that come with it.

[Duckensweet]

@NosConsurgo well everyone entitled to there own opinion. how does the bible go against every thing i wrote? and why did you write a song about me lol.

[a7xdaboss]

WE KILL THE FAGGETS WE KILL THE LEZBIANS !!!! (NOOOO NOT THE LEZBOZ)!!!!!!

[xTHExTASTExOFxINKx]

@a7xdaboss Come on guys... Top Comment??

[XXmrsXXshadowsXX]

That's not the real beginning of the song people. I bought the cd and this was not there.

[familyguyrocks1233]

@XXmrsXXshadowsXX it actually is but for some reason they didnt put in on the cd... (have cd too)

[XXmrsXXshadowsXX]

@familyguyrocks1233 maybe bc they added it after they finished the album. I think Bert was trying to make a point.

[familyguyrocks1233]

@XXmrsXXshadowsXX yea i actually lik the song added with the beginning

[XxUnaturalSinxX]

I Love this song so much, im atheist, dont get me wrong i do not mess with religion or anything, i pretty much respect everyones beliefs as long as they can respect mine and dont judge me for it, but this song refers to all the hypocrisy thats goin on with the Christian ppl

[wubba52]

@XxUnaturalSinxX Too bad he is a MUSLIM!!! DO SOME RESEARCH BEFORE YOU SAY STUPID SHIT

[r9centeno]

IM PISSED OF EVERYWHERE I GO THERE ARE DEBATES ABOUT GOD!!! look here listen to the music christians it opens up your eyes and helps you see how christianity, has gone corrupt with man made doctrines and the bible at times doesnt enforce the church no more bc of the leaders up front wanting to do it their own way! now ppl who are against christianity! bert knows a God exist why does he keep saying "So Save Us" he wants to be saved but doesnt have the strength bc he's been let down of all the bad

[julianyoung]

this is the atheism song

[retardedyusra]

Hye I'm a Muslim but I love The Used so much!! I think this song is about having faith in God regardless of what religion you are because He's your shelter. Peace be upon you guys :)

[SandvichGuy]

@retardedyusra no ur fucking retarded 

[mollyxmassacree]

only 3 dislikes? SEE The Used will forever be THE most badass band EVER< 3

from the beginning till now they've amazed us all &continue to fill our lives with orgasmic music! :D

[lovelovewed13]

"So pray then, if it makes you feel safe."

[Negativitory]

Someone types, "Amazing song." And they get 40 plus thumbs up? odd... But hey, I agree with the man.

[LilMissPrettyful009]

I love how Bert can convey his own opinion without offending people that don't share his beliefs. To write these lyrics takes someone that's passionate and has a magical way with words. This is such a good song!

[cakewalk000]

3 ppl or more just dont know what good is...im a follower as well but i think we r all siners and we cant be sayn anything about ppl be because we r just as bad.yeah u get baptised,read the bible but that doesnt mean any thing.jesus if u belive in that guy die for the siners and almost every one is a siner. we cant do something crazy like kill a person becuase they'r who they r. we cant take thier life it's not ares to take and if we do woudnt that be stealing?i love this song<3 and THE USED!<3

[MrKILLINGLUCIFER]

FUCKING 'ELL O.O.

BASTARD OF A SONG EY?

WICKED. LOVE THIS SONG:) THUMBS UP

[Harrysan791]

BEST FREAKING SONG EVER. =').

[NYCluva1]

i dont var ewhat anyones sey i love this song <3speaks the truth sum ppl dont do now a deys <l3

[GodsMannequin]

"I Said If They Don`t Get Out Of Town, We Kill The Men, We Kill The Woman, We Kill The Children, We Kill The Babies, We Kill The Blinds, We Kill The Crazy, We Kill The Faggots, We kill The Lesbians I Said God Dammit We Kill `em all" its actually a agenst racism speach the speach is about whites in africa saying he'll give them 24 hours to leave south africa or something...

[arfuture85]

my favorite line is when he says the second time over and over and i still can not beleive we can save ourselves. i think this is about beleving what you want and not leting organized religion tell you what to beleive. beleive in god just dont let the pope or anyone else tell you what god stands for

[avenged7foldforlife6]

@arfuture85 actually religion IS bad. it says so in the bible. what religion is, is a manmade, orginized, piece of shit. however I and others have a RELATIONSHIP with jesus. we go to church not cuz our religion tells us to but becuase we have a relationship with him and we CHOOSE to.

[AbbieAttack666]

I love this song so much. Bert is not trying to 'dis' christianty, he is simply just trying to get the point across that priest and other preachers are not doing a good job by simply stating "kill all the gay's" He is saying that they have failed as a union to get that point across, because how they say it is just wrong.

[jenniferhouseholder1]

"So pray then, if it makes you feel sane.  All I can say, is we go our own way..." Believe what makes you feel right.

[pencilquest]

haha love this song!!!

[MrSupervillian]

I was on both sides of the belief spectrum. My life is way better as an atheist, not saying it's great, but it's better not to waste my time.

[MrSupervillian]

Who is talking in the beginning?

[Ashtonnx]

@MrSupervillian Me.

[kevonlyle]

I'm a follower of Christ and a believer of the message of salvation...but I love how Bert has spoken honestly to the hypocrisy and unwavering proof that the Christian world is doing a poor job to witness and live what we speak. I don't think this song is in any way part of an agenda, it's just an example that "we" have failed to make a good reputation for ourselves.

[avenged7foldforlife6]

@kevonlyle what makes christians look bad is the overly religious people who force religion on people. i'm christian and i don't consider myself religious i don't have a religion with god i have a relationship

[kevonlyle]

@avenged7foldforlife6 amen

[ASubtleExchange]

@kevonlyle Gods fake. Go brainwash children into believing, and get off a good song.

[kevonlyle]

@ASubtleExchange sorry you feel that way, friend. Hope you have more faith in something in your life at least. keep the peace and God bless

[MorgisaurMayday]

@kevonlyle True That Is Really True, Its the Redneck Christians that are making us have a bad reputation

[wubba52]

@MorgisaurMayday too bad its a Muslim speaking, google Kallid Abdule Muhammad, oh and he got paid by the government to do that speech.

[MrNukesftw]

@kevonlyle The speech was done by a Muslim "Khallid Muhammad". Therefore the song is either about the Muslim extremism or religion as a whole

[kitten99899]

@MrNukesftw no

[sticknasos]

@kevonlyle i dont believe on anything but i kinda agree to what u say :)

[wubba52]

@kevonlyle THATS A MUSLIM!!!! his name is Kallid Abdule Muhammad, Thumbs up if you actually research things before making statements like this. 90 people jumped to the conclusion that this had to be a crazy white christian. pretty ignorant.. Not as ignorant as Kallid, but you're definitely working on getting there.

[kevonlyle]

@wubba52 Sorry you feel so afflicted and angry. I did think for a while on how to respond but I didn't think of anything that was polite or, to be honest, wouldn't make you feel small. Sorry man, pick your battles more wisely.

[GangstaHippy31]

amazing song

[NoRmAnDyWrEsTlEr]

The used needs to come out with a new album soon

[GangstaHippy31]

THE USED = BADASS

[deefreely]

"These days we reach for so much more.." Like what?

[jbinthacoc]

@deefreely umm not being a blind idiot?

[deefreely]

@jbinthacoc No..I'm not asking what he's reaching for NOT being.. I'm asking what he's reaching FOR..

[adamchristensen11]

So pray, then, if it makes you feel safe.

But all I can (say) is we go our own way.

We go our own way.

So save us.

Typo in the lyrics. thought id be that guy.

[gothprincessforever]

well if they've killed em all why and i still here?

lol but its a good song :)

[michelle027girl]

Can someone help me understand this song im reading the lyrics but i cant tell if its sarcastic or not, i dnt get it, is it talking bad about jesus like he doesnt believe? i love the used and i'm catholic i'm just curios

[Milonification]

@michelle027girl I think it's meant sarcastic, because they go their own way and save themselves, but ask people to save them with their prayers. That is very contradicting and so, I think it isn't meant serious. Maybe they are talking about the type of christians that feel obliged to convert non-believers into christians and the ised says they don't need that, because they "can save themselves".

[kidvic411]

@michelle027girl He's saying he can't blindly believe in God without any proof, but if that's how people wanna live thier lives then so be it. He definitely means "save us" sarcastically.

[AFCAUltra]

@michelle027girl

Its about not judging others for who/what they are.

[CD44F]

@himynameisfluffy What point are they trying to make?? I don't really get what the song's about...

[Tehninja]

@CD44F Read the lyrics.

[kjkorry]

I'm always wondering if they performance live is as good as on the album.. Some one who can assure me that they do?

[shady7bc]

@kjkorry They definitly play awesome live!!

[GailandLauren]

@kjkorry Believe me, they are UNBELIEVABLE live.

[bho0die]

@kjkorry AMAZING live!!

[ChemicallyNotOkay]

It doesnt have the talking on me CD.

[cjuneau1]

I wish I had the version with the spoken lyrics! I got mine from iTunes soon after it was released and haven't found any other version. This is one of the best songs on the best album of the 21st century.

[rileypmht]

This song is less about christ himself, and more about the foundation of the christian church. Also, the full intro (including the bit from the previous song) are the concepts that The Used hate about religion.

At least, that's what makes sense.

[Narutoemoness]

I'm guessing Bert doesn't believe in god? Great for him cause neither do I

[Shaviine]

@Narutoemoness

He lived in a Mormon community, but when he started to drink and do crystal meth his family disowned him and kicked him out of his own house at the age of 16. So I assumed he stopped following the Mormon belief because of how harshly they reacted towards him.

[xxPorcupine]

I dont have that intro on the CD or when i rip it from the cd. why is that?

[lessthannothing08]

@xxPorcupine the intro was on the leaked version of the album.they took it out for the official release.

[xxPorcupine]

@lessthannothing08 ohh okay that explains alot then, cause my friend has that intro only on her phone but on comp its not there. so that the leaked version. lol i'm gonna rub it in my friends face for not getting the real one... (probably not.)

[xxPorcupine]

@lessthannothing08 which version do you think it better? oh and it is the same with Take it away. How it has that intro bit but my cd doesn't have it.

[AbbieAttack666]

@xxPorcupine

Maybe because of censoring.

[ArbZ0022]

is this song is about Jesus?

[squirrely91]

@ArbZ0022 its about faith in god and what im guessing is his opinon about? im not sure?

[bobdavecheekymonkey]

tuuuune!!!!

[Alltimefuntv]

haha awesome

[mmaaarrcc]

the thing in the beginning is on my cd :D

[JonathanBrownn]

mp3iiiiify is the best site to get this mp3. google mp3iiiiify.

[Alltimefuntv]

@JonathanBrownn is it free?

[Wolfman8888888888]

Totally rocks.

[gatersy]

It's on mine. :D

[mscolormeorange]

wtf

this isn't on my CD either!

anywho, this song is FUCKING AWESOME

THE USED FOREVER<3

[andy92811]

It's not on my either. Is their a P.A. version? That would explain it.

[himynameisfluffy]

its a speech by Dr. Khalid Abdul Muhammed.

also known as the american black hitler. and the used, their music is more raw. they are making a point to people, so this speech is a good fit witht he song.

[Togepi7m50x]

its not on my CD either mabey its just supper quiet..??

[Mattlehead]

Why is the intro speech does not appear on my cd??? Weird... :S

[Ashlay71]

@Mattlehead yeah mine doesnt either? and i dont have a parental advisory cd because it says fuck in my songs.

[Shinigami232]

an epic introduction... lol

[kynlifsstelpa]

it's on my cd, .. in the end of watered down .. there's the beginning of this talking. do combine the songs :D

[theused801xx]

@kynlifsstelpa yea i have it too. the cd was burned for me and i thought my friend just did a shit job. but then i got it on youtube and I relized it was supposed to be like tht lol xD

[loaerl]

@kynlifsstelpa lol my old acc. <3

[helloimaneskimo]

it wasn't on my cd either.

[inapeanutbutterjar]

That's really weird.

[inapeanutbutterjar]

What is with the beginning? That's not on mine and i don't think it's supposed to be there.

[Juliette15]

It is on some copies of the CD and not on others. The 'preacher' part follows on from the ending of 'Watered Down' before it on the CD

[TheRaccoon119]

its a speech by some black guy a while ago he wanted to kill every minority and gays and ppl that werent like him and they placed the speech in some of there songs

[Andrew52EX]

Amazing song.
