  • Telling someone it's selfish to kill themselves is also selfish, in a sense. I don't want anyone to kill themselves, it's tragic and a waste of life, but why would you want someone depressed and miserable to stay alive just for you? It seems like a selfish reason.

    Aside from all that, I love Flyleaf~

  • @losingmymind611 that kinda just blew my mind lol. because i never thought of it that way...good point. but i agree with you - if that person is depressed, killing yourself wouldn't be the solution. i'm not saying stay alive for someone else, but do it for yourself. because life might seem bad now but it always gets better... if you allowed it to, of course.

  • @iAmRandom32 I'm glad I made you think a little :) like I said, I don't condone suicide. I just don't like this reasoning for preventing it. The reason to prevent suicide is to save someone's life, for their own good, not for the good of their loved ones. Thanks for listening :)

  • In a May 2010 interview, lead singer Sturm was asked how it felt to be in a Christian rock band Well, you know what? I don’t know what you mean by a “Christian rock band.” It’s hard to say that because people all have a different definition of what that means. If it means that we’re Christians, then yeah, we’re Christians, but if a plumber’s a Christian, does that make him a Christian plumber? I mean we’re not playing for Christians. We’re just playing honestly and that’s going to come out.

  • I love thisz songg! :).

  • where did u buy this song????

  • That is truly the only reason I've never tried to kill myself... because it would be selfish. The most important thing to me has always been to put others first and make them happy. Just recently I've been learning that occasionally its okay to put myself first. And each time I get to the point where I feel like it would just be easier to end this, God reminds me of the people around me that it would hurt.

  • @TLJesusFreak37 Is living your life for others really worth it? I don't condone suicide, I personally think it's a waste of a life, but when it doesn't make sense to me to live purely for the people around you and not for yourself too.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh btw I am NOT in any way a fan of Miley Cyrus, Justin Beaver or any other crappy pop singers alike, I am actually very open minded about music genres and enjoy listening to bands from soft western music to loud heavy metal just to let you all know, just because I hate cheesy Christian bands doesnt mean I hate rock music altogether you know :\

  • @TheBatmanSmells If you hate them so much, why do you keep looking for thier bands?

    Jesus loves you, kid, even annoying poeple on a Christian band's video and calling them a "cheesy Christian band" doesn't change it.

    Now please, go get a life, I hear their rather cheap these days, they sell them at every Wal-mart, just make sure you don't get blinded by the sun when you step out of mommy's basement. That's the yellow thing in the sky by the way.

  • @TheBatmanSmells i apprecieate ur opinon, but why do you comment on something that you don't like. if you don't like a video, then surely you could just press dislike and leave. just don't do anything stupid like this again

    thanks

  • @XxDazedandConfusedx1 Hey dude, Im only expressing my honest opinion here, Laceys voice just annoys me, she sings like a 9 year old girl with throat cancer also alot of her songs are really cheesy (especially Tina) I have to admit though that I did like some of her earlier songs like Broken Wings but her newer songs just make my head hurt ugh...

  • @TheBatmanSmells. tour jusr jealous because tou don't have half the talent to make a beautiful song like that and if you don't like something don't watch it †

  • One word...GAY!

  • @TheBatmanSmells Lol... I recognize this username from like 6 months ago from when I saw tons of other negative comments on a Flyleaf video. Your not fooling anyone. Get a life--and learn how to troll better if you must.

  • this is so true... </3

  • I dont want to be here if you saw my wrists you would think it was a miracle im alive but im trying to stop because of this one person shes my best friend well my only friend her name is Claire shes an amazing person and she texts me everyday just to see if im okay and of course i say yes but she never believes me so she keeps asking and then she gives me a big long explanation on why i shldnt kill myself when all she really has to do is say because i dnt want you to. Shes the only person i hav

  • Much like falling, I'll wake up when I hit the bottom and realized my mistakes and see everything I almost threw away.

  • this song changed my life forever when I first heard it. Words can be so powerful

  • Its really weird bc I was extremely depressed at one point and my mum and step-dad pointed out that it would be selfish to take my life and that was the only reason I didn't kill myself... that was literally only 2 weeks before I found this song... which was a few years ago...

  • "i dont wanna be a liar"

    i used to be depressed(still am a little) and my dad would would always say i looked sad and he would ask if i was okay and i would lie and say i am but i truley wasn't

  • This song is my entire mind set right now....."i was truly thinking of....how i might quit waking up" fucking too true...

  • I so badly don't want to be here. And it's so hard going on everyday knowing that I can end it all at any minute. But I...no WE do it everyday. That's why we're the strongest people to ever live.

  • This song describes me in so many ways. I'm waiting for the day I can be stable again...

  • This and Cassie are my favorite Flyleaf songs!

  • This song describes my life. In only 2 minutes

  • All of you who claim this band isn't Christian.. apparently have never been to one of their concerts.. It is blatantly obvious!!!! :)

  • @kayeLCee86 *facepalm* DOES IT FUCKING MATTER? WHAT DOES "CHRISTIAN BAND" EVEN MEAN? SO NOW ONLY PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN GOD CAN LISTEN TO THEM? WHAT THE FUCK?!!

    Seriously, what YOU think and feel is not what WE think and feel. Music has many meanings, and claiming that your meaning is the only right one is not only irritating and stupid but blatantly wrong!

  • @kayeLCee86 Anyone who needs to classify this band apparently isn't a true fan . . . your label may make you feel good but no one has to disagree with you at the cost of being called ignorant.

  • Just awesome there is no smiley face large enough :-D

  • "he pointed out how selfish it would be to kill myself" enough said

  • This song just like describes my life.

  • ow I forgot to decair one last thing that i felt the need to put cuz im kinda a DECAIR MY POIT OF VIEW TO THE WORLD AnD IF THEY HATE I COULDT GIVE A SHIT person

    RELIGIOUS EMO OR nOT

    FLYLEAF ROCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKK­KKKKK me like apple pie cookies ad that is sayig somethig my friends.

  • @pinstripedheart would you like to interpret all that for me?

  • K heres some advice for all:

    no too spewing bull about how this song/ band is purley about religion cuz I happen to know some some of my friends listen to this like its the last peanut butter jelly sadwich left on planet earth if u get my catch and there satanists. Besides that everyone is diffrent so they can and will interpret this difrent to u.

    Also would it kill u not to labey this as emo cuz most people find steriotypes offencive so its just gonna come back ad bite ya i the arse.

    now enjoy

  • @pinstripedheart No offense, But you should stop watching music videos and start watching proper English and grammar, We might understand you better. Also when someone says no offense, they want you to take it offensively =).

    Have a great day.

  • This is my life sumarized into two minutes.

  • You DO ALL realize that the flyleaf band members are churstian? this isn't an emo song, just saying'.

  • oh my gosh. FINALLY a song with lyrics to describe EXACTLY what I'm feeling

  • Guys, when i left my comment, i just meant i WANT to do it, but i know i cant. Thank you though for all your support.

  • I heard the base at the beginning and immediately thought of RHCP

  • Flyleaf stop stalking my life and turning it into songs!!!

  • Flyleaf fails they do to much headbanging :3

  • @TheBatmanSmells who said they have to be the best at headbanging? oh wait, NO ONE did! If you don't like the music, then try not listening to it!!

  • @TheBatmanSmells Do you have anything better to do than insult Flyleaf?? Like seriously...

  • @TheBatmanSmells Its not that they're doing it to be cool, Lacey is really deep with her songs and is connected to them. When she jumps and headbangs shes feeling her music =]

  • Its not on the cd its a demo :'(

  • Is this on the Memento Mori cd? bc I'm prob gettin it for my bday nd this better b on it!

  • Even though this is such a short song. . .it helped save my life. I remember listening to this song on my radio while I was putting stuff away, and I heard the line "He pointed out how selfish it would be to kill myself.". I paused and realized how selfish it really would be to kill myself. . .Man, Flyleaf's such an awesome band.

  • I know this song is supposed to make you not want to die, but somehow it just makes me that more content with killing myself. At this point I don't really care. I'm sick of being unselfish. I don't even care if my loved ones blow their brains out once I'm dead. If suicide is wrong, then I don't wanna be right. I'll stay alive long enough to remain by my love's side, but once she's gone I'm done.

  • @BensonIz3pik I know exactly how you feel. Songs like these aren't always the best to listen to when you're at that place. Please don't feel like that. You mention something about your love? She obviously knows you're worth it, and although I don't personally know you, I know you're worth it to. You're a prefect creation of Christ, and life is worth living. Please, Jesus loves you, and many others do to. Don't reject the greatest gift you've been given, you can get past this I know because i did

  • @mesocoolyo97 Thank you for the kind words, but I can't believe any of the things you've just said. While my life is an undeserved privaledge, I find it too agrivating to stand. It's a selfish statement, I know, but this world is full of selfish people. I just so happen to be one of them. None of us deserve to live anyway. Humans are a disgrace to the universe and deserve to die. We're all just BEGGING to be killed. I mean just look at us! Honestly, I don't understand how we're "precious". Ugh.

  • This was, like, the song that saved my life. . .Flyleaf is just awesome. . .

  • This makes me want to cry...

  • Do you see a dislike bar...?

    Yea, Me either.

  • I'm so glad I didn't cave and kill myself. I'm five days clean of cutting and I've never felt better.

  • @LonelyOleander Awesome, girl! Good job. :)

  • this reminds me of me and this girl kayelyn she keeps me from killing myself every day <3

  • Can you see the dislike bar? cuz i cant see the dislike bar XD

  • she has the same bday as my bestie:) happy bday lacey!

  • HAPPY BLATED BDAY LACEY MOSLEY!!! <3

  • I love this song <3 really makes me feel something..

  • i love flyleaf i love this song what album was this song on anybody ?

  • this remindz me about yesterday in youth we talked about suicide because a girl in youth killed herslef.

  • My favorite Flyleaf song of them all <3

  • @SSgtCaps school makes me happy as well, but I don't think I will be happy this school year because I lost my best friend in the beginning of July

    Actually there are ways for someone to hate their life, like being sexually abused at a young age like 5 or 6 years of age, and then suppressing it in like it never even happened then the memory comes back and brings you down, look I'm only 17 years old now but that is something that happened to me which made me hate my life and I still hate my life

  • @Savanna07301994 I know how u feel :(

  • @Harley13411 U know how i feel about what, hmm???

  • @4awa No it's not.

  • about her testimony...

  • I love this song <3

  • this describes me right now >.<

  • Great song to start my morning off....

  • "Dying while i wait to die. . ." Why does that have to be me? Im suicidal, but havent tried anything in a while. Seems like people forget sometimes how much it hurts. I dont want anyone else to hurt, but i want it to be over.

  • @333DontHateMe People dont understand, i fake smiles and being happy each day, I've tried a couple of things before (But obviously didn't work, i'm still here typing this) I'm burning on the inside and nobody not even my "Friends" (Don't really got friends, lol) can understand, or see trough it all. I've promised my best friend not to try anything more, but the knee deep shit i'm in is making it so hard to stay this way.

  • @333DontHateMe 'ello, dear sir or madame. please.. you are worth far, far too much to die now. God has greater things in store for you, i promise that.. He loves you more than anyone can express in word. with that too.. you have people who love you. and if you were to die.. what would happen?

    praying for you friend. Blessings :)

  • @333DontHateMe Your comment made me sad, and I felt like I had to reply. Trust me, those who love you don't forget your pain. They try to forget because it hurts them that you are hurting, not because they don't care. It will be over some day, trust me. I know life is hard, but I hope you stay strong.

  • @333DontHateMe "Dying while I wait to die" means that as she's planning to kill herself, she knows that she's just getting closer and closer to the day when she dies naturally.

  • @333DontHateMe sounds familiar......

  • @333DontHateMe Don't do it love...I know it hurt right now and I know that you don't think it will end but it will get better. God has such a great plan for your life and he loves you...don't take your life in your own hands let him hold on to your heart. Let him help you up when you're down and give him all your problems for he has far greater strength then we. GOD LOVES YOU NEVER FORGET THAT!

  • @thezombieslayer393 You know that can come off as insulting to a non-Christian, right? Preaching on youtube doesn't get your message anywhere, try a better site.

  • @333DontHateMe You don't know how your right. You're not alone...

  • @333DontHateMe I feel the same way.

  • @333DontHateMe I think it means she is spiritually and emotionally dying while she waits for her physical death. I could be wrong though.

  • @333DontHateMe- I hope you're having a nice holiday season =)

  • flyleaf saved my life. I literally tried giving up on life, and I still think about it... But I think about everyone else now first. Everything hurts, but I try to be happy and think about what God would want. I don't know why I'm saying this here.. I guess I just don't know where else or to who else to say it.

  • On an old account I had here on YouTube, somebody replied to a comment that said Flyleaf is the reason I'm still alive. I was criticized negatively for it.

    When you've been through hell and back, it's nice to be able to listen to beautiful, passionate and honest music like Flyleaf.

    Flyleaf is commanders of the Passerby Army...Flyleaf fans are my brothers and sisters in the Passerby Army.

  • @dearmyclosestfriend yea thats the way same way i feel. flyleaf saved me from hurting myself, as crazy as it may sound its the turth.

  • @chinarobinson55 Oh, I know exactly where you're coming from. I think Flyleaf will leave a big impact on the world. They've touched so many lives. There's not too many other artists out there that really love their fans like Flyleaf does.

    Whenever I listen to them, I really feel like I'm being lifted off the ground, swept away by honesty, and there's no denying that Flyleaf saved my life. I'm glad they were able to help you through tough times. There will never be another band like Flyleaf.

  • @dearmyclosestfriend They saved my life too. I give them all the credit.

  • Amazing how much this fits a few years back...

  • Brings back so memories i push down.

  • This song reminds me of myself, but I'm not suicidal...so... yeah :T

  • This song is so relatable..."He point out how selfish it would be to kill myself" The only reason im still alive is because i dont wana hurt my few close friends...Its even worse when people can be so oblivious to whats really going on...How come nobody can hear me crying myself to sleep at night?

  • That's how i feel everyday.....I love Flyleaf because they understand me...<3

  • Comment removed

  • sounds like me wow

  • pretty much exactly how i feel.

  • I feel this way, right now.

  • How can anyone dislike this ?

  • @angelwinks and every one who feels similar... Listen i want to say I totally understand but .. The fact is I'm not u and so I can't but I can try and I can care, I've been there and I'm not entirely out of that place either so I can give a educated guess of what u r experiencing " dying while I wait to die" and I wouldn't wish that pain even on my worst enemy.

    I don't know why u feel how u feel but pain is real and I'll always listen and care if u need some1.

    If it doesn't kill u it will just

  • GO DIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

  • @TheBatmanSmells the fuck is ur problem troll

  • YOURE ALL RETAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR­RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR­RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDDDDD­DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:3

  • @TheBatmanSmells It sickens me how you offense people with mental disabilities, yet you manage to type no better than them.

  • Flyleaf is not your ordinary band. They speak to me in my own special way.(:

  • I feel lik dying, so this means somthing to me.

  • Love this song and the band.

  • @iloveyouencore IM A GIRL YOU FREAKING IDIOT!!!!

  • @TheBatmanSmells I call all my chick friends dude. :)

  • Guys, don't reply to thebatmansmells. He is just a retard wanting attention! He doesn't worth it.

  • @thebatmansmells dude i know you dont like flyleaf i honestly dont care but thier iz honestly no point of arguing with other people about it itz your mind do what you want with it

  • I wonder if songs that talk about being dead I wonder if those were nursery rhymes what would older kids be like today.

  • i tried to kill myself today but i don't have the heart i thought to myself none would care if i died and i know they wont i want them to kill me suicide is the cowards way out

  • @angelwinks1 I know how that feels, wanting to die. I was going to do it, but then I just thought of how its a bad solution and how selfish of me it would be, leaving people, leaving the world with questions. Leaving my little sister and brother and mother and father and friends behind. So your right. Suicide is the cowards way out and i hope your falling bette.r I may not know you, but I'm glad that you didn't kill yourself. =)

  • @angelwinks1 i care, God cares and really the people who you think don't love you really do deep inside. they would be devastated if you left this earth prematurely.

  • You know its real music when it brings tears to your eyes.

    Brought tears to mine.

  • @kklloyd12345 You said it! :)

  • I spent half if the video looking for TheBatmanSmells comment...

  • i have my opinion and i like the song so yea..

  • dear fukin gosh

    OKAY LITSEN FUKIN FACES WE GET U DONT LIKE THE SONG

    THEN WHY THE FUCK DO U BOTHER WAISTING UR TIME GIVING UR FUKIN OPINION ABOUT JESUS LORD U GUYS R FUKIN ANNOYING

  • look everyone has ther own opinion on music like i think she and the band r personally amazing but mybe somoen else thinks diffrrent so plz stop with the stupid fites and actually comment instead of arguing!! freedom of speech sorry to say

  • this song should go for longer :(

  • what is up whith everyone and thier religious comments? I feel as tho you people are like trying t shove religion down peoples throats

  • @TheBatmanSmells Wow what a loser XD you obviously have no life, so go get one, ya stupid troll. I suggest somewhere under a bridge would be more to your suiting. Thank you, and have a nice day! :D as for the "come again!" part, NEVER

  • @TheBiebsCandy ...Always look up other lame vids to troll on! You know how the phrase goes, if at first you don't succeed, troll, troll again! :D

  • @TheBiebsCandy My only problem is you guys not being able to respect my honest opinion on Flyleaf's music (which btw, SUCKS!) Look here, there's no law against trolling. The only reason I do it is to see what all you sissy Flyleaf fans reactions will be! XD I find it so godamn funny to see people try to butt away people like me who find trolling funny because there's absolutely NOTHING that other people commenting on videos can do bwahahahaha! And even when you do get blocked you can always loo

  • @TheBatmanSmells

    i dont beleive that you actually find trolling others amusing

    and btw,, if you actually knew waht trolling was, this isnt it

  • @TheBatmanSmells alrighty. have fun when u want to commit suicide and no one will help you. fuck of. flyleaf is amazing. go suck ur metiphorical dick. k? thanks.

  • @TheBatmanSmells No need to classify it as something only "Flyleaf fans" would do. ANY supportive fan of a band would stick up for their favorite band if it got dissed; it's just logical to see.

    I understand you're just doing this for the lulz, but really, what's the point? You're happy to see fans do something natural: scream at haters? Are you so extremely bored right now, you just want to see people raeg at you? Some trolling can be funny, I admit, but this seems pretty lowlife of you.

  • @TheBatmanSmells if u dont like their music u shouldnt be listening to there video. r u really that childish that u cant just let ppl listen to what they want? u really have to run ur mouth? if u dont like the music dont listen to it. duh. its that simple. r u stupid or something? and btw flyleaf is amazing. if u r to shallow and close minded to see that then u dont deserve to hear their music in the first place.

  • Much Like Failing lmao! X3

  • There's still so much to learn.

  • I'll bet that Lacey's voice can kill a baby!

  • Me: Do I love this song?

    Me: Yes, I do.

  • @SSgtCaps yeah it is selfish to make someone live to when they don't want to live just to spare you the grief, but sometimes it's not selfish to make someone live when they don't want to live.

  • @Savanna07301994 In a way, I agree with that too.

    The only way you should be allowed to commit suicide is if you've tried everything to take away your depression, it's a legit reason, and you're sure you wont regret the decision

    :\

  • @SSgtCaps I know, this song helps me get rid of my depression, I have tried so many times to get rid of my depression, and you don't know how many times I've tried to commit suicide or why, and you don't know if I hate life or if I love life!!!!!

  • @Savanna07301994 Yeah, it always comes back to me during the summer.

    School makes me happy.

    I've stopped myself half way through attempting because my mom told me that if her kids ran away and she couldn't get them back, or if they killed themselves, she would lay down and die.

    Life is confusing, you can't exactly hate or love it.

    It's just..

    Life.

  • I personally think it's selfish to make someone keep living to spare you the grief.

    I love this song though, it's really great.

    <3 <3 <3

  • so much to change!!!

  • This is pretty much the theme song of my life. I was depressed and suicidal until God showed me how selfish I was acting. There's people a lot worse off than me, and He reminded me. Thank you Lord for being such a major part of my life, and thank you Flyleaf for putting all these crazed and confusing feelings into such great and meaningful words. I am forever a fan. <3

  • @The1flyleaffan amen lol

  • not guna lie the top comments are by fags :L

  • love this song but itz so short!!!

  • This is a song about portal. 

  • this is one of the few bands that can really make that emo poetry sound godly on stage and in the studio, unlike those other crappy emo bands.

  • Or just MAYBE 19 people didn't like the song? Lol. Opinions are entitled. I love it. Flyleaf is amazing!

  • the bass is awesome

  • 19 people though the dislike button said dis-i-like

  • 19 people realized this song wasn't on Itunes ;)

  • 19+ people were so moved by Lacey's voice they got confused and pressed the wrong button.

  • what does "btw" mean?

  • @Snowflake99C BTW - By The Way

  • 17 people have never felt pain.. >:(

  • This song reminds me of how I felt a few years back

  • all these dislikes... i will pray for the people.

  • *rolls eyes* don't feed the trolls people!!!

  • A song that sings all my thoughts back to me. :|

  • @TheBatmanSmells Why listen to it then lol?

  • @TheBatmanSmells I understand ur opinion but if u dont like the song dont listen to it no need to wirte mean things about someone

  • @TheBatmanSmells Trollin' trollin' trollin'.
