  • Rise against...My solitude, my hope, MY HEAVEN.

  • i have a friend who died because he was bullied for being gay and he was only.... 14 :'( i miss that dude its ok john god will take care of you up there , remember god likes you for you not your way of life </3 :(

  • Fine that you guys like gays and stuff, but i like the song , catchy beat :D

    Rise Against Is the Best!!

  • This song is the only reason I know who Tyler Clementi is. (:

  • KONY IS MY BITCH

    

  • I love this song. I've been on both ends of the bullying game, and I don't like either side. Bullying just ain't good. RISE AGAINST BULLYING!

  • my best friend is gay and i swear, i would kill anyone who dared to treat him like this.

  • Oh god this song is so true, The fuck is wrong with society these days? I mean if you are not "straight" you get killed? thats just fucking retarded...... And its even more retarded that religion says that "God" dont like gay guys. Isnt it suppoused that he likes everyone no matter what?

  • @ChickenFriedA I agree with you, but the Bible doesn't say "God doesn't like gays". It says to not partake in immoral sins, but still treat everyone as equals. Just like me, I don't like the idea of "gays" and lesbians", but it doesn't mean i'll go around trashing them. I even have friends who are homosexuals and i'm fine with that, after all we're all brothers and sisters.

  • @BabyDBoom no, it doesnt say anything THAT bad, it just says something about them getting stoned to death >.>

  • @131996Connor and no, i do NOT mean marijuana

  • @ChickenFriedA Nowhere does it say in the bible that God hates gays, but people misinterpret the meaning of a lot of scripture and twist it to their own beliefs.

  • @HaZZmatDefender um....... wait...... what o_0

  • @HaZZmatDefender Well, it says that a man lying with another man is an abomination punishable by death, (I don't know the direct quote). But that is 2 lines amidst a flurry of statements saying to love everyone despite their flaws shows that those who use those two lines as a reason to hate people? I don't think it's their real reason, I think it's because they are homophobic, brought on by ignorance and their parents morals. If only they would look past their ignorance and listen to people...

  • My heart dropped when I was age 13. :(

  • Why bully?

    RIP Blake, I love you and miss you.

  • " It's always darkest just before the dawn " ... Omg it's so beautiful! It will raise me during bad days! Thx Rise Against!

  • Rise Against. Spechless again.

  • i plan on living 

  • I plan to go on living. From someone who's been bullied to that point, stay strong.

  • "this life chose me, im not lost in sin"

  • And too much blood has flown from the wrists of the children shamed for those they chose to kiss. Who will rise to stop the blood?

  • I believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. And I feel that this song is meaningful and very emotional. As TinyTinyTurtle mentioned, it's about accepting others. I know this because I've friends who are homosexual and bisexual. But I try not to let that affect my perspective on any matters and try to create peace with others.

  • im not very religous but this song is still pretty amazing and sad,...

  • Kony 2012

  • RISE AGAINST Homophobia.

  • RISE AGAINST Discrimination

  • いい曲!! 否定する人はおかしい・・・

  • 79 can't make it stop

  • nobody have the right to say you are bad or wrong just because you are gay if they hate you for being gay the just fear that themselfs are maybe gay and cant live with this words in thier head

  • What if we lived in a world where heterosexuality was considered 'dirty' and 'wrong?' How would you tormentors feel now? 'Do to others as you would have done to you'

    I certainly wouldn't want to be tormented for liking a guy. (Yes I'mma girl.) That would suck, wouldn't it?

  • I'm catholic bisexual. I am so. Sick. Of everyone saying how gays/bi's/lesbians are going to hell. If God hated us for being the way we are, he wouldn't've created us that like that. And another thing, if I do go to hell for my sexuality, then at least I wouldn't be with any of the assholes who torment me for being myself.

  • @pokegal19 Are we separated twins? x)

  • @pokegal19 Sadly the assholes who torment you suffer from the sin of pride, and probably wrath as well. so they're probably going to hell. That said I don't believe in hell. I can't believe the God I love and serve could ever be that cruel.

  • This song saved me. ^____^;

  • @Mrupercut28 that quote is from so many movies and songs and TV shows....it originated like 40 years ago u know?

  • "it's always darkest just before the dawn" <--- that is deep

  • the bible may say that homosexuality is an abomonation but the real abomonations are the ones who caused these kids to kill themselves. how else could they live with themselves?

  • wtf who wud dislike a song like this !

  • nah the dislikees are just people who dont like the way the song sounds, or they're the kind of people who like disliking any video they can find. I'm not saying i like the fact they do that, but you shouldn't automatically judge people just by their actions or beleifs (wink wink nudge nudge)

  • even after listening to this around 7 times.. i still dont see the point in living anymore.....

  • @QuotesWorld there is always a point to living. don't give up hope

  • @QuotesWorld There's always a point in living (: You're an amazing person, who has a real purpose in this world, and even if you haven't found it yet, when you least expect it, there's gonna be someone who comes into your life and shows you that very purpose, like an angel or something, and you won't feel so bad anymore because they showed you a reason to live :) If you just hold on. Don't ever. Ever. EVER. give up <3

  • @QuotesWorld Don't be a pussy. Life is hard, people are jerks, but quitters don't get anywhere.

  • @QuotesWorld Well maybe 7 times isn't enough. You have to get up off the computer and realize the good in your life rather than seeing the bad.

  • Im bi... c'mon take a poke at it i fucking dare you trolls, I'm bi I AM BISEXUAL! and proud (though still shoved in to lockers and knocked out...))

  • @blindgamerz125 stay strong man people shouldnt bully you because of your sexual orientation

  • @blindgamerz125 amen ! ur awesome !

  • 19 year old straight dude here and I always start crying at 3:05. Fuck homophobes. I love you LGBTQA, it gets better.

  • 1:37 to 1:44

    columbine massacre reference

  • This song breaks my heart because like most of you I can relate to it. I was shunned for my looks and sexuality for the longest time until I found two people who love for who I am. I've considered a permanent fix to all my problems before but... Don't ever give up, everyone.

  • showed the music video to some people earlier, one of them said "the video is sad but the song sucks"....

    i was like "wth are you talking bout?!!?!?"

  • Jamey Rodemeyer, age 14.

  • @ElaleMinority I knew Jamey.... </3

  • @EatingBabiez  im so sorry

  • I took a pen and paper and i made a list of the people who are horrible and one of people who are good natured and have good hearts. The Good hearted ones were much bigger than the horrible people but the horrible people are still there. Learn to accept, Just accept who you are and DONT commit suicide. Please just hang on. For someone who is the same age as Seth. We need a safe place to grow up. And some people are making it a not-safe place. FIX IT

  • @lizarddogguy Amen

  • Dude, Seth Walsh's name is gonna stay in my head forever. 13 years old...

  • @GDAbaseball97 I'm only 14, and to think someone just a year under me...

  • @GDAbaseball97 It's disgusting when people think they can justify killing a child/adolescent because of his sexuality, race, religion, etc. It's horrible killing anyone for any reason...but a child? How can you think that's "right"?

  • This song makes me think of the Chardon, Ohio shootings. Even though he was not gay, TJ LANE or killed himself he was still bullied heavily.Although he shot 5 and three are now dead..If more people would have reached out to there fellow classmates, I gaurentee we wouldn't be hearing about this on the news. People need to understand how much bullying effects everyone and how easily it can be avoided.

  • so cool song...

  • Comment removed

  • One the first comment in responce to what I said anonfollower had no real need to be said. Second so you kill people for being made gay by God so you have no way to justify that. Third killing people because of one person who you have no proof im sure was gay for the death of a brother. So basicly enjoy life now because the only thing waiting for you later is Hell. Also remember this you killing someone for bull reason only makes you a worse person in God's book. I am sorry for your bro though!

  • 77 people don't listen to lyrics.

  • "You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty." Mahatma Gandhi

    there are 77 dirty drops !!

  • @davidberrueco2 Yeah, but the ocean has a pretty big oil spill going on right now.

  • Live the life you want to live, never give up, never give in, keep on pushing for a happy life and always remember you didn't choose this life you are not lost in sin you are loved by many. Always remember God loves you no matter who you are. He made you who you are and he loves you for being you!

  • @Mac81700 Actualy God did destroy sodom and gamora for there sexual immorality's with men and women and when can tryed to leave the city with his wife she turned back and was turned into a pillar of salt for wanting to remember the immorality she did in there so ya God dislikes ALL SEXUAL INMMORALITY So crack open a bible and read it to learn why, btw my 8yr old bro was raped and murdered 3 years ago by a gay guy so im just serving the justice till i find the unholy bastard 

  • @Anonfollower1 Just because he was gay you prosecute all gays for what one did? Straight men kill and rape little girls everyday and we don't say all men are pedophiles. You take your faith on a book written by a man thousands of years ago. It was written by a man! Not god and just to further my case it's been translated from language to language over the years who knows what was added in or lost. It's sad what happened to your brother but he's not the only one.

  • @Anonfollower1 Did God not command us to protect those who are weak? Did Jesus not come to save all, regardless of who they are or what they've done?

    Gay, bi, straight, confused... who cares? We're still in need of salvation.

    For you to attack other people based on their sexuality alone speaks volumes about your character, and paints every Christian with a bloody broad brush. Shame on you.

    Those people you've attacked, even their cries are heard. Nothing but shame on you.

  • Anonfollower1 you are a fucking dumbass if u dont like the song or what its about dont fucking listen to or it or comment nobody wants to hear your opinion if its a bad one so stfu

  • im sorry to any gay ppl offeneded by the ordasity of some of these assholes who tell you to kill urself, you will get way farther than them. don't waste it, that bullets worth more than their words... hold your head high!!!!

  • @TheKypage Pretty sure the word you were looking for was 'audacity' 

  • @TheNewMalone  yeah but its really just the point of the matter not the grammar lol

  • @TheKypage I know, I'm just trying to help ya out.

  • Im against bullying but even i agree that homosexuals are a abomanation and i beat them with bats and battons till they bleed then i keep till they passout and spit on there body

  • @Anonfollower1 dude, your a fucking asshole. i don't care what anyone says. I'm not gay and if your not gay than good, but you have no fucking right telling anyone how to live. It's assholes like you who make these normal people kill themselves, so i hope you get arrested for assaulting a homo go to jail and get ur ass torn apart by some big guy. your not cool for acting tough and if u dont like someone telling you how life is then get the fuck off this video

  • @Anonfollower1 an you are a sick sick person who will burn in hell once you die from your own hand from depression. But don't worry at least then satin will be there waiting to welcome you with a nice burning pit that you will stay in for your wrong doings.

  • @Anonfollower1 What the fuck is wrong with you? That's not even trolling, that's just being a fucking cunt.

  • @Anonfollower1 Hypocrite.

  • @Anonfollower1 YOU HAVE NO LOVE FOR PEOPLE??? I magine I do it to you!!!!! I readed your explainations, it doesn't matter!!! FUCKING ASSHOLE!!! imagine people persecute u!!!!! you deserve NOTHING but DEATH!!! and you're a sick perverse, a sadist!!!! Homosexuals are people like you and i !!! So are bisexuals!!!!!!! little bitch!!! How DARE you do this to them??

  • @Anonfollower1 your a sick bastard my cousin was raped by a homosexual and i didnt take my anger out on oter bi's and homosexuals just cuz one of them did it doesnt mean that all of them agree so i have to say have fun with the rest of your life cuz karma is a bitch!

  • @Anonfollower1 1: ur an idiot to think that god has a plan for the world. he created us all to be unique and equal. if he had a plan and wanted us to turn out a certain way, we'd all be human robots. 2: you cant say ur against bullying when you admit that you beat the shit out of homosexuals and spit on their bodies when they pass out. 3: gays, bi's, lesbos, wtf ever, arent always against god; they're against the bastards of the world, such as urself.

    -coming from a bi chick

  • @xXTwisted13Xx F U.

  • @Dgkody haha thats real cute ^_^ u mad bro?

  • @Anonfollower1 Troll.

  • If you are being bullied for any reason, listen to Metallica "Nothing Else Matters". It always makes me feel better, I hope it makes you people who are being bullied feel a little better :)

  • This song is so inspiring, it makes me cry everytime.

    I'm a victim of bullying almost everyday, but that's not the point.

    The point is, we can't believe better things are coming, we can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, but it's there, believe me, I struggle everyday to keep my hope, I try not to break down, yes, sometimes I do useless but relieving things like self-harming, but that's not the way, and I'm not proud of doing it!

    Keep holding on, things will get better, please... <3

  • This is incredibility powerful, not just about bullying or discrimination but all the pain the world can offer growing up. We all need to hear that it's get better. I swear this song makes me cry every time.

  • @jackburke1214 i know i can relate to these people :(

  • im gay so this song hits home

  • @jackburke1214 you sir are an abomination and should follow the names and kill yourself

  • im natural...no plastic fake tits on me O_O

  • 13?i first tried at 8...i was put in a behavior place till thhey decided i wouldnt hurt mysself again

  • 13 years old? That made me cry. For these kids to take there own lives because of someone else`s ignorance......

  • @BayandSade they werent the ones who killed them its not their fault some kid shot himself over it, im not saying its right but kids need to grow thicker skin

  • @iamqssdeath and when they're beaten to death? Because that happens too - then it's also their fault, for being weak?...

    But bullying can also be Hell, thick skin or not.

  • i just want it all to end....people dont accept me...i get the shiz beat outta me...im harrased...my parents disowned me...whats left to love??

  • @rainbowappplepie No you don't Never Say that! I am fat over weight ugly, Get picked on everyday, But you know what I never once though of suicide and believe me there is ALWAYS Someone who loves you even if you havnt met them yet if you need to talk inbox me :D So please understand you are important!!

  • @rainbowappplepie no!

    Don't think like that! I know it seems hard and u just wanna die, but if it works...we all feel like this one time, and you're not alone! I'm quite sure you're a very important person :) so don't think like that! :hug:

  • @rainbowappplepie

    You have yourself to love.

  • @rainbowappplepie no, please don't take your life over other people being assholes. you are worth it. you're going to find people who accept you one day, you're going to make something of your life. it may not seem like it now, but i promise things can change. one day someone is going to love you and you are going to be so glad you didn't do it. ♥

  • people like him are the reason iv tried 3 times in my 18 years...last sunday was one.....i have ppl think they can beat my sexuality out of me

  • @rainbowappplepie Don't try it anymore! Please!

  • 75 people are egotistical assholes who degrade and bully bi's for a living.

  • @TheNacho56 We are supposed to be attracted to the opposite sex. The penis was meant for the vagina, not the anus. Obviously. Gays are not natural.

  • @Hunt2deth43 People like you are not natural.

  • @Hunt2deth43 Define natural. Natural means it exists in nature. Gay animals DO exist in nature, so I think that being gay, lesbian, transgender or bisexual is "natural". Thank you very much for your input, but what you're saying is false.

  • @TheNacho56 sorry if we think they should be punished for being against gods plan for the world

  • @TheNacho56 1 person is an empathetic tool waiting for flames to cover his head.....and the heads of bi's everywhere....

  • @TheNacho56 Not entirely sure that's an accurate conclusion to come to, perhaps they just did not like the way the song sounded and didn't understand the message and were basing it solely on the music.

  • Just to be fair, a real Christian, who understands what our religion is about, would never hate somebody. If you judge all Christians as being horrible people, aren't you being just as bad as those who wrongly judge others for their orientation? I support gay rights wholeheartedly. I believe in hope, and suicide absolutely breaks my heart. This is such a beautiful song. Stay strong. :)

  • i can't believe this is happening at the age of 13. its horrible

  • so a fucked awesome band !

  • . . . Oh my god. . . this song is the best song i have ever heard. The meaning behind it. . . its. . . i have many friends like this. and if i haven't had been a friend i'm sure there names could have been spoken on here. . . I want to cry and yell. yell that this happens. I want to change the world. . . no matter what it takes. . .

  • If in fact homosexuality is not a choice and there is a genetic component.(As so many people say) Then homosexual partners adopting children should not be allowed. Back when we were hunter gatherer tribes if someone was homosexual they just couldn't go to the adoption center and pick up a kid.

  • @Megatron8118 why shouldn't it? can't two men or woman look after a child with the same level of responsibility as a straight couple?

  • thumbs up if you're here cuz the official vid is just too sad....

  • love this song and the meaning. means a lot to me as im sure it means a lot to many others. To anyone having issues i hope things get better and hope that you dont let anyone get to you. Easier said than done but you got others like you and like most say dont keep quiet speak out and keep a smile on your face through this hell we call life.

  • i have suffered bullying for the majority of my life and it wasn't for my sexuality, i can't even imagine what it would be like to be bullied for something you truly cannot control, to anyone suffering who reads this i promise you it does get better, the torture does end i swear on my life, i beg you please tell someone if you are being bullied, don't keep it quiet like i did

  • I love all these "learn to accept others" comments. How about learning to accept yourself? If you were born female/male then it was meant to be like that. But no, everyone jumps at each other before themselves. The path to enlightenment starts within. You don't have to be in tibet to meditate like a tibetan monk.

  • It would stop if you Humans learned to accept others. We are all one species of Homo Sapiens here, yet we act as a conglomerate of different species all together instead. It's not sad, its pathetic. And I know this comment is gonna get a lot of hate probably, but you know what, fuck all of you. My opinion, and it's mostly right

  • @BlackKungFu there are no girls names because no girls committed suicide due to bullying in september 2010. hence the name:Septembers children

  • @gube9000 i know you where joking man

  • Look im all for gay rights and what not but i think the guy was just joking

  • a) you have the most twisted sense of humor ever

    b) id mention it so that people realize that even though this song speaks speicifically about homosexual people, it can happen to anyone

  • Jason Michael age 15.

  • @BookLoverKid That 13 year old, when his name was spoken I BAWLED.

  • I wonder why there were no girl names

  • @BlackKungfu lesbians are far more accepted than gay men

  • I think you guys are overreacting just a little bit

  • @gube9000 fuck no kid no ones over reacting ur a fucking asshole you're the reason people feel the need to damage themselves in this way

    im not gay, but i know how being tortured like this feels and seriously ur the sort of white trash that should be killed for saying things like that

  • @AGingerSoul Wow touchy, ever heard of a joke? Btw why mention that you're not gay?

  • @gube9000 love it when 8 yr olds try to act mature

  • R.I.P Harrison Chase Brown. We miss you

  • @gube9000 hey dude why would you even say something like that even if you were just messing with us it doesn't matter the people in this song commited suicide cause of retarded little basterd like you

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • gube9000 doesn't matter if it is a joke or not, some people will ignore you, others will not and may feel bad the rest of their lives because of you.

  • this song helped me get through some rough times after i came out

  • jeez i was just messing with you

  • @gube9000

    Uncalled for?

    I think so.

  • @gube9000 People like you are why this song was made, dude. Fuck off.

  • @gube9000 its because of people like you that there are names to be listed in the song

  • @SilverAce579 And it's because of people like you, that fewer names will be listed. <3 Thank you.

  • @gube9000 Hm. I think jackasses like you are the reason they needed to make this song.

  • @gube9000 You are so goddamned lucky I don't know your address.

  • @VitalSubtlety I wish you did so I could beat your face when you came over

  • @gube9000 Mmhmm you have no idea what I'm like when I get angry I get like a honey badger. I don't care who I hurt or what I break until after I calm down. My step dad and I got into a fight a couple times HELL YEAH he was stronger than me but I ended up breaking two of his fingers.

  • @gube9000 really what are you three?? no three year olds aren't ass wipes!!

  • @gube9000 you fucking sicken me, people like you are the scum of the earth, not those who just happened to be bored different

  • @gube9000 u sad sad bastard just imagine u were wat u call a "queer" and u we're bullied so bad it drove u to commite suicide just think about that, u inconsiderate shit id say go throw yourself infront of a train but im not a sick bastard like you

  • @MrXxL4ZYBOYxX By arguing you're just lowering yourself to his level, he's just a troll that needs attention, ignore..

  • @gube9000 It's people like you that push people to the edge, you sick bastard. I don't give a damn if you're kidding, it's not funny to joke about things like this. I don't understand why people like you can't just get their heads out of their egotistical assholes and think for a second, think why people do what they do to themselves. Oh, that's right, you're too busy laughing at them even though you don't know shit about them. I'd say go die but I'm not a sick twisted bitch like you.

  • @gube9000 you bastard. get over yourself. it doesn't even matter that they're gay, they shouldn't have had to end their lives at ALL.

  • everytime i listen to this song it reminds of everything i went threw i always used to telll myself if im not here who will care, who will beable to change this dying world the crazist people you will meet in life are the ones that talk about changing the world they are the ones who do

  • awesome song
