[fuckthebreakdown]

progression in 0:20 :')

[helenachoen]

dedicata a te,mia passione...

[ironman316]

WHY DOES IT CUT OFF AT THE END!

:'-(

[Ironman4321wow]

epic

[tsm1th611]

Im LOSING SIGHT of the present and realizing that by REPEATING YESTERDAY I am CONFINED in my past mistakes. THE DARKEST NIGHTS pass, as i look at my REFLECTION and realize that to delete the ILLUSIONS I have to realize that there is MEANING IN TRAGEDY. MORNING WAITS for me and I can longer go THROUGH STRUGGLE because all CONTROL IS DEAD. We all have EMPTY HEARTS.

[MetalliCxZero]

The lyrics aren't about Christianity but Tim did say he writes lyrics through his Christian perspective so they are a Christian band. Stop doing your mental gymnastics to try and say they're technically not Christian.

[ilovedapussy123]

@MetalliCxZero You are 100% wrong, Tim has said in multiple interviews that they are not a christian metal band. There is a difference between a christian metal band and 5 christians in a band. Theyre energy and perspective is backed by their faith. This does not mean that they sing about christian "stuff." Theres no mental gymnastics. This is not a christian band.

[MetalliCxZero]

@ilovedapussy123 Tim said he didn't know the difference between a Christian band and Christians in a band. The lyrics aren't explicitly Christian like Haste the Day or something, but they are still written through his faith point of view. You could probably google it and find what I'm talking about. And it really shouldn't even matter whether they are Christian or not.

[hXcDancing4life]

0:46 it sounds like he says soldier boy

[CODReligion]

the lyrics to this song have no relation to their religion what so ever

[DiabolicalSchemes]

00:43 Best bit on the album.

[samhuizenga6891]

actually As I Lay Dying would be considered Religious Metal simpy due to the fact that their main inspiration is Jesus Christ

[mizuhokazami1]

@samhuizenga6891 hahaha wow your comment made me laugh thank you.

[tsm1th611]

check out my aild guitar cover

[marcusg0th]

fucking lyrics, aweasome

[Nytemare111]

best song on the album in my opinion

[xWagnerPlaguesx]

on this song,Tim sounds like Brook from Impending Doom o.o

[Slayman3909]

This song is awesome while playing Dawn of War Dark Crusade as Chaos

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

[KooLBrez3]

5stars!Nice song.

[KooLBrez3]

5 stars!Nice song.

[jhonioh]

5 people lost sight

[T0XICMAYHEM]

wtf is metalcore bullshit? this is metal not metalcore

[CoreyCBM]

@T0XICMAYHEM metalcore is a branch genre off metal 

[T0XICMAYHEM]

@CoreyCBM this is just normal metal i can see why you call bullet for my valintine metalcore because they sound like girls and play crap with alot of double bass.. this may uses perfect double bass and guitars and there vocals are good clean

[CoreyCBM]

@T0XICMAYHEM trivium are also metalcore, august burns red are metalcore, they use perfect fills. metalcore isnt about thrashing drums, its a type of music that branches off, bullet for my valentine is ladies metal, (some songs)

[HeadBangAllDay]

@CoreyCBM I agree but Bullet for my Valentine are fucking awesome. Don't worry about if they sound "pussy" just fucking listenin to the music man and enjoy it. They have great riffs and real emotional stuff. Fuck everybody who labels music and people. They're so ignorant.

[CoreyCBM]

@HeadBangAllDay bro thats true, i like bullet for my valentine, as i have a video of them, a top 5 , although i critisize them, i still have all albums, and vids from concerts, as they are talented

[HeadBangAllDay]

@CoreyCBM Yeah they dont really have a song I dislike. Great band for sure.

[loganmannen]

@HeadBangAllDay bullet for my valentine has been my favorite band for years i luv hardcore screamo and metalcore and all that but when it comes to bfmv there fuckin amazing and will continue to my my number 1 band till the day i die

[SPlRE1]

@loganmannen seen the making of scream aim fire? bullet are fucken shit, matt doesnt even hang out with his band and the video clips are obsessed with his eyes. I think the band is more designed to make little girls ginies tingle. But they do have good guitar work and good songs... However as people they suck.

[Jesushobo]

@CoreyCBM Believe your looking for the word "sub-genre." and yes you are sorta right.

[onemanarmy675]

This is Chuck Norris's elevator music.

\M/(>.<)\M/

[CobaltSpieder777]

@onemanarmy675 ROFLMAO!!!!!!

[mau571]

@onemanarmy675 Chuk needs no elevator

[nickawat1212]

ladies stop arguing its metalcore and ive been listening to them since they came out

[TheRavenAzarath]

Chyeaah

[gothickingdon]

fucking love this dam song,fucking keep the head bang metal live guys love this shit rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[widowmakr124]

Justin Bieber.........and now begins the heated argument over popular and iconic music figures :)

loljk AILD is brutal. The Powerless Rise imo is best so far, it made love to my ears

[happyfunny23]

anyone thinks this sounds like reflection a lil bit? :(

[Dahmer06]

you dont have to be a bible thumper to like this shit, its fuckin brutally beautiful. even better live guys. get out and see them if you can. i've seen them twice now, seriously sick shit

[spinningspun]

Brutal!

[TheFrostcheck]

Does anybody else hate when people say, "omg you listen to screamo?!" who calls it screamo?

[xd5xhostile]

@TheFrostcheck .. just say "its metal you pussy bitch"

[marcusg0th]

fucking brutal

sweet lyrics, amazing

[gta4master12321]

look like 2 people should die

[xhile420]

subgenres who cares shutup they fuckin jam

[beeftownz]

@xhile420 i care. and these people obviously care. ::)

[TheEmoti0ns]

I love this song, it's like a fist in my face and a happiness for my ears *_*

[Ranant989]

1:50-2:13 my favourite part man..

[VessUnless]

This is my ABSOLUTE favorite song - they should play it more live :DDDD

[Kenerfalkaren]

They say they are christian beacuse they want publicity

[FullyFlared212]

@Kenerfalkaren What do you mean because they want publicity? They dont go through their interviews preaching to everyone, they keep their relationship with god personal, and it influences their music in that way.. and they do what they do beacause they love it, not for the publicity...

[wes1eyscott]

@FullyFlared212 I completely agree with you, they wouldnt do it for publicity, Tim is humble now more than ever and its all because of his relationship with God and ur exactly right it shows in their music, like their album The Powerless Rise most of those songs are about being a christian and God, but yeah theyre not going around preaching for publicity

[FullyFlared212]

@wes1eyscott Exactly... As I Lay Dying is one of those bands that puts out exactly what they want, because they want to, not to impress everyone with whatevers in, they love what they do, even if they arent made popular for it, on Tv or the radio, they are so inspiring, lyrically and instrumentally... and their new album is amazing as well...

[crazymann22356]

@wes1eyscott the funny thing is that he'll never admit hes singing about God, instead they say they sing about life struggles and the fact that they are all strongly in touch with their religion leaves it all open for interpretation which i love

[wes1eyscott]

@crazymann22356 oh yeah definately i mean its really cool for people to know that he is but by him not saying he is it also kinda like stops whatever conflict there would be like how people go on and argue about it theres no point so yeah its cool it doesnt create problems and its awesome music!

[crazymann22356]

@wes1eyscott haha yeah i know those arguments are absolutely ridiculous haha but ive loved AILD since i found them like 4 years ago haha so good

[EpsilonX]

@crazymann22356 well they're christian but they're not singing about god and stuff, however the devil wears prada are incredibly christian

[crazymann22356]

@EpsilonX they could be they dont specifically say..like i read an interview and they said it was up to the listeners interpretation

and in my opinion thats the beauty of their music

[thomasbellamy1]

iF YOU DONT LISTEN TO AILD YOURE GAY

[Skwisgaarz666]

damn straight and if you ain't chrtistian you gay and goin to hells!

[XxMonkyCheezxX]

@Skwisgaarz666 You are retarded. You're saying that If you are not a certain religion then you are going to hell? Remember god loves all people. Ignorant fuck.

[guitarmaninflames1]
