[mollymindfreak]

This song blows me away...

[irrisjepierrisje]

I love this song.. I want this at my funural

[tillysfan1]

I am feeling this song way too much I have listened to it at least 2 times everyday for the past two weeks

[malski10]

DEGRASSI WHEN JIMMY GOT SHOT AND YOU HEARD THIS SONG BUT DIDNT KNOW IF HE WOULD LIVE! GOOD TIMES!

[cassie7373]

LOVE this song. So melancholy yet wonderful somehow

[metalangel12311]

Just finished watching the Shooting episode on Degrassi..man this song is soo amazing, and it fits the episode perfectly.

[LovexLikexWoahh]

Thumbs up if Degrassi Brought You Here :)

[JesseStarrM]

Its sad how they tell you to speak up on matters about bullying but they dont do anything. The person who is being bullied is a victum. But what do you call those who watch it happen and do nothing? What do you call the person who does the bulling? They tell people to speak up about bulling, but when you do they brush it off until it is to late. I love the episode on degressi but i dont like how rick was called a monster by so many of them yet many knew he was bullied and did nothing.

[Hendizzy]

@JesseStarrM *bullying* and he did beat on and fucked up his girlfriend Terri

[katierose1398]

If you ask me i think what Rick did was totally horrifying, absolutely heartbreaking and terribly stupid. But on the other hand it wasnt his fault. It was his mental illness and people only saw what he did and not the cause behind it. They stuck labels on him until no one could see the good in him which was incredibly unfair. I dont blame him for shooting jimmy. No it wasnt jimmy's fault but i dont blame him. He could have found a different method, but he was heartbroken. Like if you agree.

[Twiggy286]

@katierose1398 Rick's didn't have a mental illness. It was poor judgement on his behalf. Sadly, he was provoked to do it but violence never solves.

[buddahnature]

@ItsArielShae put Terri in a coma, endangered innocent ppl, crippled a guy. Any of this ringing bells?

[LastYearsRegrets]

This will forever be my favorite song..I cried at the end of this Degrassi episode just because of this song. I didn't even care that Jimmy got shot and Rick died.

[roseangelx3]

the 8 people who disliked have no heart.

[ChibbySu]

This song was perfect for the episode were Jimmy got shot. It was so sad! I always get all choked up :( I always felt so bad for Rick. Even though he did do a really terrible thing to Terri, he tried very hard to make up for it. But no one would let him.

[kamakazikaylie]

Is this the song when stupid nerd boy shoots jimmy on degrassi? :(

[RyanX1231]

If your alone in this world, this is the go to song. I sure need it right now

[SongsILovex]

Whenever I think of Degrassi and all of the people that had been killed or injured, I imagine what they would be doing right now. What if Rick had never died? Or J.T. didn't die? Or if Jimmy never got paralyzed? What if Ellie died from depression (with cutting) and Emma died from anorexia? Or Paige was killed by the man that raped her? I can't help but wonder what Degrassi would be like if none of the bad things happened

[TijaunV]

I wonder what J.T would be doing now if he were alive...R.I.P James Tiberius York..!

[EnchantressLaina]

Hey, remember that one time when your friend was so lame you decided to go into the school's recording studio (Degrassi has a recording studio?) and you auto-tuned everything? You don't? Right, because that's stupid.

They should have ended this show after season seven, when Emma, Manny, Toby, Spinner, Jimmy, and Liberty graduated.

P.S. Why is Chante still there? She's been on the show season mid-season 4.

[YounngRose]

This song depresses me in a good way...

[kaykid2]

ha back when degrassi was cool :)

It's so lame now.. This song is beautiful always

[YounngRose]

@kaykid2 AGREED so much!

[CionnaDee]

heard this on Degrassi when jimmy got shot i cried when i saw it

[waterflowing2]

I heard this on Degrassi season 4!!! I finally looked it up. I love the "I will fly, I will fly, you will see" That's my favorite part!!

I wonder if anyone knew about this song before Degrassi

[mrsdracomalfoy1000]

The episode of Degrassi this was in was in Season 4, so it was really hard to find it. But when I did find it, I cried. And cried. And cried and cried and cried and cried and cried.

[niakadesu]

this song is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooo sad and true im crying listening to this right now

[Watchmen341]

this is a song that tuchs you deeply

[pink24cutie]

season 4 2004

[pink24cutie]

degrassi

[Jr2green]

This came out in Degrassi a long time ago .

[zeldahett]

My perfect "sad" song. Works for everything!

[alex10748]

I cried when this played on degrassi

[shelbystelluh]

Perfect music to star gaze to.

[emilyohmy]

These are the most beautiful lyrics I've ever heard.

[MszAmazinq]

Breathtaking ...

[airact1]

i dont know why but this song makes me sad and depressed but at the same time i relize life for what it really is its a beutiful place but with death and crime as if it is in the struggle betwenn god and the devil and its as if this song has a purpose to make life be more realizeable and to be understood

[katcove]

hahaha at your disclaimer for not owning this song ^_^

[narniafan1015]

@lalaplop1 i couldn't have said it better myself. This song is just heart wrenching yet beautiful all at once. Amazing.

[Lalaplop1]

It's almost as if she is dreaming. She's lost someone important and now she is on a rooftop planning out her calm suicide. She imagined soft grass, as if in a fairy tale. She falls, and realization finally hits her. Grass turns to concrete but she still believes she will fly when she finally falls. It's like she is imagining this yet still in reality while singing this. She feels alone and she feels like she is god ending her own life.

[airact1]

@Lalaplop1 woooow u really get this its an amazing talent to understand things like this u have an amazing talent

[irrisjepierrisje]

@Lalaplop1 you described it perfectly

[Lalaplop1]

"The roof slips beneath my feet. As the branches fade away from me. Softest grass turns to concrete. But I will fly. I will fly... You will see."

[MizoraTasocai]

I love this song so much. Its so pretty. I found this song in one of my best friends videos and I've been obsessed with it ever sence. <3

[aoumon21]

where did you get the art for this video?

[iLyHannahhhx]

@aoumon21 deviantart . com (im the same girl, lol different channel)

[sierraanddom09]

reminds me of degrassi when jimmy was shot and emma and toby were at the candel light vigil crying

[iLyDC6191]

Thiss Made Me Cry Maad Hard .... :'(

[ILuvMe2019]

Wow.. this song doesn't really have many words to it.. yet it's 5 minutes long and it has more meaning to it than the 3 minute songs on the radio

[glowsticx]

i want this song played at my funeral..

i know that's weird to say but i think it's really pretty!

[mrdepaz666]

tabs?

[Sk8ErGaL85]

i heard this first on degrassi.

its amazing. <3

[oogp]

@JeniferFAILS why are you cussing?

[JimmyJones]

@JeniferFAILS What's with the swearing?

[pielova55]

This is like my favorite song its soo intense about how she jumps off a rooftop and kills hersrlf cus she feels so alone without her mom.i heard this song on degrassi 2 and it made me cry!!!

[jnkjonas3]

i remember when I first heard this on Degrassi

[Vr0om88]

I'm having a part of this song tattooed on my back someday :) I love this song so very much.

[AlyssaSaysYo]

@Vr0om88 which part?

[Vr0om88]

@AlyssaSaysYo

"The roof slips beneath my feet, as the branches back away from me. The softest grass turns to concrete but I will fly, I will fly, you will see"

I have a cool design idea for that part of the song :)

[123Deci]

This song is depressing but at the same time very beautiful!

[suchacuttiepie]

i could listen to this song all day

[Undecipherable1]

this song is beautiful, i heard it on degrassi and i love it.

[buddahnature]

heard this one the Degrassi episode where Jimmy got shot [i cried when i first watched it] and absolutely fell in love w/ it. I just had to find it. THANK YOU!!!

[sierraanddom09]

@buddahnature me too i cudnt stop it was sad

[ItsArielShae]

@buddahnature Rick is perfect

[buddahnature]

@ItsArielShae on what planet?

[ItsArielShae]

@buddahnature Mine.

[buddahnature]

@buddahnature Wow. 118 likes? You like me, you really like me lol jk.

[Hendizzy]

@buddahnature #fail

[thatgirlkelly1]

@buddahnature Same here :) I cried all through that episode but also fell in love with this song because it seemed to go with the episode perfectly. I really thought the actor who played Jimmy was in a wheelchair until I saw him singing on MTV. Great actor!

[crazy4lps]

Haha alot of people like to comment on my comment thin on the highest comments...XD i listen to this song when im upset,its just something i do...

[TheSweetie223]

i always listen tew this sonq when im sad :(

[62442Stitch]

Isn't this song about suicide? She's playing God, which means she's gonna take her own life, right?

I think its because she misses someone that she recently lost. Thats why she asks if she drops if she'll fly away with him/her.

The last verse kinda confirms it, the roof slipping from beneath her feet being her jumping off the roof, onto concrete.

idk, this is just how i'm interpreting the song...

[suwoooo]

@62442Stitch Yeah I think it is man, I heard this when I saw the columbine tribute on youtube and it matched so well and was soo dam depressing.

[donttouchme107]

Degrassi has introduced me, into sooo many songs,

but this is like

one of my favorites(:

[tillysfan1]

man this song is so sad, and everytime i hear it i see the degrassi sode wheen jimmi got shot and the candle light memorial they had for him...

[MissIndependent57]

love it! heard it on degrassi. it reminds me of when JT got shot too.

[PanoopyWorldCreator]

@MissIndependent57 JT wasn't shot. He was stabbed to death by a Lakehurst thug

[xMari95x]

Dude..this is the song at the end of the episode when Jimmy got shot..I still cry whenever I watch this episode..And this song just makes it more depressing...What a great song for the most dramatic episodes of Degrassi.

[jessicaklardie]

D E G R A S S I <3

[wezziezgurll]

Nice :)

[RikaRulez]

Heard this on Degrassi and I had to look it up.

[itsamasing94]

I Heard it on degrassie to But i think Rick wouldn't have done what he did if they would have left him alonee.

I think he would have changed.

[xMari95x]

@itsamasing94 He could have..He was just mentally unstable. If he just went away for a year, and worked on his anger issues, he would have been fine. Originally he was going to shoot Paige. After she said she was sorry(even though she didnt really do anything) he out the gun away and went to the bathroom. If Spinner and Jay never said anything about Jimmy, Rick wasn't going to do anything...

[PanoopyWorldCreator]

@xMari95x Rick still would've tried to shoot people that made his "list,"(he told emma she made his list) just not Jimmy He almost shot Emma. The purpose of the episode was to show what bullying could lead to. It was the paint and feathers incident and the bullying that caused him to bring the gun and he shot Jimmy because Spinner and Jay told him Jimmy set it up. Originally he would've shot a lot of people; Sean saved their lives. Raditch didnt pay attention to the seriousness of the bullying.

[sohowstheweather123]

this is so depressing,but amazingly beautiful.

[SHANNONSFINEST]

i heard this on degrassi, that was such a sad moment

[rentheading]

wow. this song gives me chills. it's so honest and beautiful, but so dark and hopeless.

[biiebonng]

ive been trying to look for this song for forever ! and i finally found it omg this song is soooo good! i cried when they were sitting there at the candle light vigle for jimmy in degrassi !

[shadowgames824]

this is a very sad and maybe even depressing song but i still like it because it captures the woes of the human experience...

[JoeHammerschmidt]

go every Degrassi ever marathon, I love that show.

[kristenlovessinging]

DokiDokiSoraChan that better have no been the first time you saw that episode, if so you dont not deserve to watch that show.

[DokiDokiSoraChan]

@kristenlovessinging

Erm it wasn't =_=

I saw it when It first came out I just never got to look up the song. And the marathon came on and I got to look it up^^

And what if I did barly saw the show? ;) so~?

[nightblossom645]

omg i heard this song in degrassi too ha i wonder if this song didnt play on degrassi the person who made this song would just suck ass.lol but wat happened to drake in degrassi was terrible FUCK U RICK UR A FUCKING MURDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and u suck at acting in degrassi

[yaoilover1488]

@nightblossom645 um he didnt die. if you wanna get really into it, sean is the murderer cuz he shot rick. rick died. not jimmy. jimmy is currently getting stem-cell research with his other crippled girlfriend.

[xdombillyx]

@yaoilover1488 Rick shot himself. They were struggling for the gun, but Rick clearly had it.

[stepinnoutdanceco]

@xdombillyx no sean shot him he even says it in a other episode

[yaoilover1488]

@xdombillyx No. Sean pulled the trigger. When he reached for the gun and turned it on rick while struggling for it, he put his hand around ricks and sean pulled the trigger.

[trumpetman2529]

oh goodness. The first time i heard this song was in a Columbine Tribute here on youtube. T.T
