[staystrongxxstarveon]

my best friend brought me here. shes pregnant. i met her on here. we had eating disorders together. but now, everythings changed. everything i do makes her mad. but all i want is my best friend back. my lexi. )': </3

[XxTheStealthyClownxX]

Okay, well I can't connect with anyone here because I haven't had anyone special to me die recently...Well, except Whitney Houston. RIP, girl. You will always hold a place in my heart. All the good artists are dieing and are being replaced by disney stars...We need more bands like this

[brittney7645]

@XxTheStealthyClownxX -Luv this song-so intense &makes u feel deeply 4luvd 1's lost &evn tho i HAVE experiencd losin close ppl, i relate bout Whitney -as a girl growin up thru 80s-90s-etc, she was like havn a big sis always there 2give u advice, no matter what prob i was havn, coincidentally she always had an emotionally relatable song out @the time that helped me thru it -Think we can all agree no mattr what ur opinion of her is, she def goes down as losing 1 of the greats

[meelker12345]

RIP to the 12 dislikers :(

[BadlanderConnor]

RIP Nana. She past away a year ago and I miss her. She was Irish, and she used to call me her "blegard". She would never tell me what it meant though.. I miss her so much, if only I could see her for a moment.

[MrDarkseid15]

RIP Friend of Mine :[

[cerelac08]

<3 Granpa RIP

[PersephonieA1]

RIP Papa. <3 

[GulaiDzn]

sounds like kid cudi the prayer? lol

[BarcelonaFan1998]

@GulaiDzn that's just a bad remix of this song

[haloownz456]

my dad died today. im 12. we such a great relationship. i sit here listening to this song balling my eyes out. life can be great, life can suck.

[darclusia]

Wow.... whole lot of sadness here... let's all instead talk about why we like this song, for positive reasons, for instance, I think it has a great melody and I liked it ever since it was on the movie 127 hours... James Franco is badass

[BiankaSK95]

@darclusia it was? i don´t remeber it :/

[darclusia]

@BiankaSK95 yeah, it was actually on the commercial for it and also at the end

[SmexiiBacon]

Look i know everyone who has posted a RIP comment is sad but i like this song and i come on here and see a bunch of depressing comments please try to not post those comments

[PersephonieA1]

@SmexiiBacon Don't read them then. Some people like to share their stories.

[cagedbear187]

RIP Rebecca Black....Oh wait....

[chemical331]

@cagedbear187

HEY dont get our hopes up like that!

thats just cruel :3

[tylerl596]

RIP Billy Mays July 20, 1958 – June 28, 2009

[spyro40000]

Lol why so many death and rip comments? Seriously, stop being so negitive, death is a horrible thing but the best thing in out planet, because us humans have a sentence we will find that we are emotionly attached to our loved ones. You shouldnt post comments repersenting your ones who have fallen, insted you should forget them as they encounted the most natural cycle of life, death.

[darclusia]

@spyro40000 yeah... RIP positive happy mood lmao

[IDatedTheGiantSquid]

RIP Pop. You were an amazing grandfather, even if you didn't remember me half the time. I knew you'd recognized my face when your face lit up every time you saw me. I remember the last words I said to you. I love you. I always will. I'll see you when I get in heaven. Maybe we can go fishing. :')

[italian0stephan0]

RIP All those who died in the car accident in front of me....Like if you understand what it's like to be a first responder but to have everyone die in your arms.

[TheLiverblow]

RIP To every Palestinian soul that went through more than 60 years of aggression .

[RetroEditz]

deaths shouldnt be something you shout out to people you dont know for sympathy, keep it to yourselfs or go tell your friends/family. dont mean to sound harsh but cmon

[darclusia]

@RetroEditz I agree... RIP dear little goldfish that I'm about to cut up... sorry, turtles gotta eat

[phantomfeline]

R.I.P Aunt Chocki ... Went through alot, ashame i never got to know you

[masterbrice]

I've lost a friend and a aunt in the same week.

[legodude50000]

april 27 2011 a F5 tornado hit my state of Alabama...It took more than i could believe it took my home, my friends, my town...after that my best friend i consider my sister emily got killed in a car wreck...I thought it would stop after that but it never did.. my grandfather got cancer...god please i just want my old life back.

[asr12321]

Wow.. at all the assholes who insult the people who talk about their deceased friends/family, what the hell is wrong with you? I mean I can sort of understand 'trolling' when its something minor and for a few kicks... but because the internet can mask who you really are doesn't mean you should be an ass... its just immature... mocking someone sad about a death is just low. Get a life you ten year olds...

[darclusia]

@asr12321 well it's cuz people don't wanna get on here and hear a bunch of crying... go talk to your family or friends or a counselor if ya need help, I don't know your aunt gingey or uncle rick or grandpa william etc...

[MilesPerHour141]

R.I.P. to my friend George, who died last Friday at the tender age of 16 when a car hit him as he was riding his bike. "Only the good die young." This quote never rang so true in my ears. </3

[bayi159357]

I think everyone should just ignore ClayColes; an attention seeking prick. Obviously HIS daddy doesn't give him enough attention.

[fireman1871]

klye xy brought me here

[jpksx]

such an amazing song, i love liz lee's cover.

[cheyennelua]

RIP Zack, the bestest friend I could ever ask for. I love you so much and I know you're watching over us. <3

[Kdiscus]

[talldudegrad12]

[Deezzill]

[catriton]

So Beautiful.

[kikesurfrincon]

otras canciones !

[myhedges]

Lost my cousin about 8 months ago. Still seems like a dream. I just found some pictures of him holding me when I was a baby. It truly is hard to loose someone close to you in your family. Rest in Peace Mike. We still think of you everyday, you've changed our lives forever.

[stickmansam2210]

@XTMxTH3XB3ASTX a shooter killed 90 people

[thedarkgeneral135]

[The123123123123456]

[notjamichael]

[White77ihy]

[Jasmineee143]

@White77ihy

I did too , i love that movie :D

[XIANNE157]

this song is beautiful <3

[guitorinth95]

love <3

[Bavery14ZombiesProd]

RIP Dad. Died of Colon Cancer, Stage 4. Thumb up if You understand what i went through as a 15 year old daughter, close relationship=Broken..<,/3

[Endlessdonut97]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd I'm so sorry for your loss. I know exactly how you feel. When I was 9, my father passed away from multiple causes in a hospital bed he'd been in for 2 months. No sunlight, no fresh air, and not being able to see family all the time. We visited him as much as we could. On December 7th 2006, he gave us a final wish: To see the sunlight once more. The doctors took him off life support and brought him outside. He died 10 minutes later.

[Bavery14ZombiesProd]

@Endlessdonut97 im so sorry... God Bless You.

[Endlessdonut97]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd It still hurts to talk about it 4 1/2 years later. Just know that your not alone. My father had a garden built at Straub Honolulu in his name in '09. Events in your life like this will stay with your for the longest of times. I would post a link to the article that the hospital wrote on my Dad, but YouTube won't let me post a link for some reason >_<. Just Google search "Straub Healing Garden" if your interested. And like Aron Raltson said, don't give up.

[IPrefer2Win]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd I don't want to sound like a mean, insensitive person but.. I think it's better when you lose a parent young instead of being a little grown up? I completely sympathize with you and I hope you and your whole family are coping well and doing fine. I lost my mom to breast cancer when I was 16, a year ago. It's never a cool thing but you're not alone. Good song though :)

May your father Rest in Peace.

[bunzmunch]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd i was pretty close to my grandpa he died of pacreatic cancer, 17 year old grandson.

[bunzmunch]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd cant imagine what what you went through with it being your dad and all.. im sorry.. it must of been hard..

[loveskating3]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd I'm praying for you!

[bringerofthecows]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd RIP my nobody cares.

[ClayColes]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd shut up bitch no one cares

[sahebsandhu]

@ClayColes

dude don't be such a dick

[zain7789]

@ClayColes thats an asshole thing to say how about i kill ur dad shit head ? how would u like it ?

[ElectronicScreams]

@ClayColes Just cuz no one cares about you doesnt mean you have to act like a dick so stfu you stupid bitch

[xXTianaXx]

@ClayColes I can't wait till someone you love dies. You'll grieve horribly, seeing as you call someone who has lost someone a bitch. You'll hate yourself, you'll feel stupid because you thought grieving was just for drama queens. I mean, you'll hate yourself if you don't already. Have a nice life, Biggot.

[Davidofcourse]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd Kbry



[BrandNewShoe]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd I am so sorry, I wish you the best. Much love!

[vivalaT911]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd sorry to hear that :( be strong 

[brittney7645]

@Bavery14ZombiesProd -Major thumbs up to share a complete understanding of what u went thru - Lost my mom when i was 15 -most confusing & screwed up time in a kids life anyway & to lose the only person who loved u unconditionally -it twisted my head in ways no words can explain -only some1 who went thru it can possibly comprehend how it jades you...25 yrs later im still tryin to feel unconditional love again ;..(

[PROSNORLAX]

Best song ever. RIP Brenda. The aunt I never knew. :(

[intactus]

RIP the poor souls in Norway.

[XTMxTh3XB3ASTX]

@intactus dont wanna sound stupid but what happened in norway?

.__.

[InkCollie]

Wow, completely beautiful song! It makes me think of everyone I have lost, and yet, in such an uplifting, sad way... Tangles your emotions, but still makes you smile. :) And to think I heard it off of 'Skate' wii game.... >.<

[93elt]

RIP Michael.

[fructuu]

RIP Amy.

[MrALMOSTSK8ter]

RIP uncle rod

[mahnax]

This song is beautiful.... :')

[HunnieeBuniee1]

this song reminds me of everyone i've lost. it also makes me think they're watching out for me, i like to think that. a real band makes you feel the way they want you to feel.

[SuperJonathon1997]

Woah o.o … never heard this song before now, its good

[CannibalVegetarian]

What if you aren't a total hipster and don't care when/how you find out about anything?

[AlexDinosaur]

hurricane 2011 <3

[anahgirl2012]

i wish i had found this band without the use of a tv show but im just glad i did. theres something inexplicably sad and beautiful about their songs and now i am addicted

[Twigheart911]

@anahgirl2012

I found them because Kristen Stewart mentioned on of there songs at the comic con and now I'm addicted to there songs too!!!!!

[lorenzo1341]

thumbs up if you came cus 127 hours

[timinlex]

These lyrics were posted in one place and have been copy/pasted everywhere on the 'net, but I think some of them are wrong. "To know me as hardly golden Is to know me all wrong, they were" may be slightly different, possibly "to know me is hard, and we know that...it's to know me, all wrong they were". Also, another source shows "one billion day funeral" instead of "brilliant", and on the David Letterman video, it looks like he's singing "I'm coming out only".

[OmEry512]

Thumbs up if you found this song from trailer 127 hours!

[doogz8u]

Can't I just say I fricken love this song?

[scmmo]

who else feels like they're in a movie destined for greatness whenever they hear this song ?

[JourneyLikeNoOther]

I love this song,<3

[immasilando]

dont know what else to think when i listern to this song.

[kosova973]

i com to this great song from 127haurs the movie and i like both the movie and this song :D

[SpicyMonkeySoup]

thumbs up if you came here cuz of kid cudi

[oreoisnumber1]

Thanks for directing me to this song Kid CuDi

[vintagelifelover]

his voice is haunting. I found this accidently on i-tunes.but I probably heard it on a show. don't hate the ppl wo are finding the great music late. to the vid poster thanks for the lyrics

[EmoKitten723]

what tv show does this song play on?

[portal2dredg]

@EmoKitten723 Anyone who is wondering, I dont think this was played on a tv show. However, It was on the soundtrack of 127 Hours. Amazing song for an amazing movie

[herrgoda]

@portal2dredg It featured in Numb3rs "Breaking Point" episode, two episoded of One Tree Hill IIRC and on Criminal minds, although I don't remember the episode.

[andreap023]

the song is used so much, you cant blame soembody for finding through a tv show, trailer or movie.

[ICUYesIDosGaming]

This song is inspiring, it brings out such emotion, it's one of the best pieces of music ever created.

[QuickieSnipezzz]

R.I.P. Ryan Dunn You will be dearly missed. You will be in all our hearts. :'(

[AVATARD10000]

[waterloo110]

[voollyball]

does anyone know any other good songs by this band? thanks....

[andreap023]

@voollyball well my second favourite song is a cover they did, called "The End's Not Near, Its Here". then you should check out most of this album, Everythng All the Time. i like the "First Song". just click a bunch of songs in the side bar dude.

[TheTUGAfreak]

[19811tanner]

i came here from skate 2 and the stepfather thumps up if u did

[GMZdmg]

haha love it when the guitar just goes hardcore but i knew this band b4 it was put on tv :P

[readingisbeast]

I think the song's about excepting death.That at anytime we could die.At Any occasion.But also it kinda has to do with hope ,waking up in the morning to hopefully find that person.

[hRTerritory]

<3

[fruitylalaland16]

Wow. I'de only ever listened to Kid Cudi's version of this song, I didn't even know this existed, but this is much more sentimental and much better, over all. :)

[walnutgrovemo]

This is really good. And kid cudi did a good job with it too:)

[AmericanLoser360]

can somebody say infectious??? :D love it!!!

[Beetarde]
