Blessthefall - Meet Me At The Gates - 2011 (Lyrics)

[JaxCanScream]

Can someone please explain the ending to this song to me? I understand the meaning and I enjoy the song but I dont understand the 3 minute silence followed by the sounds that they play.

[dreawat]

my friend thought of me when he heard this song because of the essay I wrote about my dad...I miss him soo much :'(

[kyocera3gcoma]

@dreawat hey i know you :D

keep your head up sis, we're here for you

[IVXCrunnerFTW]

I recently lost a friend of mine due to heart surgery complications. He was 16 and a huge blessthefall fan. I remember when he got the Awakening package in the mail he said it was the best day of his life lol. I'm praying I meet him at the gates.

[shellyeatsbabies]

everyone's lost someone.

[SlimTasty16]

I walked to my cousins grave today and played this song. I cried a lot. She loved blessthefall so much. She wanted this album to come out. But she dies before the song promised ones was even released. I miss you Ashley RIP :(

[fr3akatheart]

I wish I could make it to the gates youll be waiting for me at..

[TCLxAssassin]

I just now truly listened to this song.. and a friend of mine died yesterday in a car wreck. :/

[tazo3141500]

Amazing song, amazing band.

[tazounettedu69]

everybody lost someone ....

[fr3akatheart]

I miss you Mom . . . .Ill never forget the day you went away . . . 'Ill see you on the other side, when it is my time..."

[TheUndeadSally]

♥meet me at the gates

and wash these tears away

[RISKTAKER1019]

3 words,

BEST BAND EVER!!!!!

[AshleyAeviternal]

Everyone told me this band broke up...and I was really upset..but now they're back and this whole album is amazing<3

[crazybuckeyefan90]

@AshleyAeviternal Idk who told you that, but they never did break up. Eric took over on vocals when Craig left, and when they got home from touring they started the search for a new vocalist, thus Beau. I like them better with Beau doing vocals.

[sims8504]

I love this song so much it makes me think of my baby brother who died 4 years ago he was only 2 weeks old. Today is his birthday, I love you so much Nemo your sister Angelz<3

[ParanomAcT]

like apo elines

[rockrobster428]

this might be gay but my cat died and i feel really sad, and i have been crying for 3 hours, and i just stumbeled upon this song, and i feel better now. but the ending to this song creeped me out.

[ballsauce2]

My ex showed me this band, and I thought "Eh.. they're alright". Tough relationship stuff, y'know? Then a -friend- linked me here. He's quite possibly grown very close ever since, music opens you up. Don't ever think otherwise...

[Christiefeatures]

This is so so sad :(

Matt said on his Formspring that the singing at the end is Beau's cousin singing to their grandpa just before he passed away <3

[weemanno106]

damnit guys, this album is really fucking great.

[xAngelExoticax]

My grandma passes away in December and I haven't stopped listening to this song since v.v

[mikeprdct22]

WHAT THIS SONG TALKING ABOUT ?

ABOUT HIS GRANDPA GRANDMA?

HIGINIA I THINK CRAIG SING ABOUT HIS GRANDMA!

WHAT HAPPEND AT THE OF THIS SONG?

10:35

WHAT IS THAT SOUND? IS SO CREEPY (SORRY 4 MY ENGLISH)

[phundr]

@mikeprdct22

Craig is no more part of the band...

[waffleunicorncat420]

ahh..

I have no sad story about my grand-mama

But I love this song..



[GundamShinobi00]

Saddest thing ever ;_ ;

[gaikwadakshay]

I was holding my grandmom's hand when her last pulse slipped away. This song made me burst into tears.

[isabel0821]

Damn , :'( This Songs Relates To Me ... <'3 ... I Love You Grandpa , You Were The Best <3

[ForeverLoveAx33]

I absolutely love this song, I just had someone really close to me die so this song really means alot, hope they play it at warpedd :)

[TheMsGosh]

Why did it go quiet...?

[volvagia466]

@TheMsGosh listen to the whole song, there's more around 10:30

[blessthefall4ever42]

i found the secret

[happymudvayne1]

Best song on the album!

[guiterorist520]

When i got to this video there was 25,004 views and 4 dislikes.

Which means theirs about a cool 25,000 people that like or dont mind this song.

Love it.

[Milennium1999]

man i've never listened such a peaceful song...love it

[nhlstar89]

Is this song really 12 mins long? Because there are other versions that are shorter.

[smmndchaos]

@nhlstar89 It's a little over 7. After that there's silence and at 10:33 there's a hidden track "I Love You, Lord"

[DaannyHD]

@nhlstar89 Yes. The iTunes version is only like 8 minutes. This one tho is 12 minutes cause when the song ends it goes quiet for a min or two, and then around 10.30 a short recording joins up from beau when he was singing to his grandpa at the hospital just before he died

[ConnorTheMetalManiac]

@kevin951104 thanks for the support man... I can understand that it has to happen, but that doesn't mean I like it any more :/ a month before my grandfather passed, my doberman passed away too. She was 6 years old

[ConnorTheMetalManiac]

@05Skinny i feel your pain bro. i just turned 15 recently and my grandpa was always there for me, but he passed away on October 16th. Everything has been so different without him around...

[kevin951104]

@ConnorTheMetalManiac u have to know, that is the rule of life, just know someday u'll be with him at sky C: take care dude C: do not be sad. A Message from : Bogota - Colombia

[jollygoodmell]

[ilikeheavymuzic135]

@HaloMaster441 its beau and his cousin singing to their grandfather as he was passing away.

[lucyluuuable]

I miss Mike :/

[EueropeanUpholstery]

understood-able song and good song

[PrairieRockz]

Love the song but why is it over 12 minutes long?

And is sounds like little girl singing. Maybe singing their song?

[PrairieRockz]

@PrairieRockz Scratch that, it might be someones loved one that passed away at the end.

[YourMomIsATurtle]

@PrairieRockz it was beau and his cousin singing to their grandpa when they were younger

[DaannyHD]

@YourMomIsATurtle It was last year he died dude

[YourMomIsATurtle]

@DaannyHD oh my bad

[AlluringPhantasm]

The two people that disliked this song, do you have no heart?

[AlluringPhantasm]

This is the most meaningful song out of this album. One of the best songs of the year. Dedicate this song to my great auntie that has cancer <3

[ambamf33]

This song makes me cry. Everytime

[KnifeHeart1]

@ambamf33 Me too

[scarsandloveletters]

This song always reminds me of my Grandpa...it always makes me tear up :( but it's such a beautiful song and Beau's voice is killer :)

[SiameTheKiller]

Beautiful song, gives me hope.

[Vengeance9099]

[LisaRimes]

[LPwishlist08]

I have loved watching the recognition this band have gained recently for pure commitment and talent, epic band, epic song, No hard feelings Craig, but im glad you left because Beau is quality. Blessthefall for ever!!!  .

[HaloMaster441]

[Deathandbliss]

[OoMayaOnOurworldoO]

[RockNRollNinj]

This song is life. In the sense that it can reach out to all the pain and suffering we go through.

[redruner100]

the song starts up again at 10:30

[SkylarTrueWolff]

if you've ever experienced a significant loss, this is the song .

[godgaveusnothing]

@SkylarTrueWolff yeah and Stay still, i lost my grandmother a month and a half ago, I listened to stay still everyday after and now I have this song as well, whenever i think of her, which is everyday, I listen to these songs

[Baseball5867]

good song but when I play this on my speakers I forget about the ending..I forget im playing music and it scares the shit out of me

[MrFunnykid93]

@Baseball5867 that happens to me all the time! and than it scares the shit out of me for like 5 seconds im looking around my room.

[MegaSpazzout]

This song is so sad especially the end :'( almost had me teared up

[seanragbir94]

this was really deep D=

great song ='D

[themeetmeatthegates]

love this song so much

[xRECONCILEDX]

omg that part scared me... i was playing a game while listening to this song... then i didnt even notice it went silent then out of nowhere i hear stuff

[Baseball5867]

@xRECONCILEDX haha dude I know! For a second I thought some serious paranormal activity shit was going down XD

[zZAlexMarxZz]

@xRECONCILEDX I'm glad I wasn't the only one.. O_O I muted all the game sounds and it was still playing. Didn't know I was still listening to this.

[nhlstar89]

@xRECONCILEDX Minecraft? When I play I listen to Blessthefall.

[cheeserock4]

im going to TEAR.SHIT.UP at their concert in december!

[blinkblinkyou]

<3.........Nuff Said

[paramorefanboy123]

i got chills and freaking tears in my ears btf forever <3

[ChrisParedes7]

@loulove321 December 6th; Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.

[Drummer51505150]

First song to ever make me almost tear up. I didn't. But I should've.

[loulove321]

:'( Miss Beau really depressed after i met him i fell in love now he's gone from me lmao jks i was the last to talk to him and now im sad that the night was a blink of an eye on Monday met Motionless In White and Beau my pp is me and him then i found out this is about his grandad and then i found out hes engadged and apparentley he has a child just born??

[DanceWithTheD3ad]

I wonder what song he was singing?

[DanceWithTheD3ad]

God dammit this song is making me sad. Good job Blessthefall.

[kiwidahorta]

i don't want to talk about religion, but all of their new songs are related to God in someway. Anyone noticed this too???

[TheAlexisIsabel]

@kiwidahorta they ARE a christian band.

[kiwidahorta]

@TheAlexisIsabel yeah i know, but in their other albums they didn't made musics talking about their faith like this

[silversnake24]

@kiwidahorta Sure they did. His last walk had alot of christian influences. Witness not so much maybe a song or two.

[butmomidontwanna]

@kiwidahorta well in the beginning with craig they were catagorized as a "christain" band..so yea and theres nothing wrong with it they sound great better than on witness and his last walk

[kiwidahorta]

@butmomidontwanna i am not saying that is a bad thing, this album is their best album.I am christian so i really like that they put their faith in this album (sorry for some mistakes, i am from Brazil)

[taillyho]

@kiwidahorta somos nózes então! haha

Cara, creio piamente que mesmo no período com o Beau eles mantiveram a etiqueta de banda cristã. Apesar de não ser recorrente, acontecia de algumas letras de algumas músicas citarem deus e pans. Cada vez mais eles têm ganhado meu respeito, mesmo não achando esse álbum melhor que o witness.

[ChrisParedes7]

This song makes me want to cry...when I see them on December 6th, if they play this song, I WILL cry in the crowd.

[loulove321]

@ChrisParedes7 Where you seeing them at?

[x0enchantedwish]

This song gives me chills and makes me want to cry. Feels so reallll. :[

Such an amazing song.

[EmissaryMusic3]

My grandpa died on friday im going to see him today at the open casket, me and my dad were closer to him than anyone else in the family, when i told him i loved him he passed away seconds later because i put him at piece, and right now this song is the only thing getting me through it,

[JZO97]

This is probably my favorite song on the cd! I had this happen to me last summer!

[RubixWizz199109]

I love this song.

[OurStepsSealOurFate]

My grandmother died when I was overseas, and I never got to say goodbye, she was a really great person and I really miss her, I also never got to meet two of my grandparents because they died before I was born. I have one left and am going to visit him next week. This song is BEAUtiful, in every way.

[TheYourtubeyourtube]

the song sang in the end is the lyrics to a christianm hymm called I love you lord

[MrPalkiaFTW]

im not gonna watch this till i get the album

[RockingMinors]

i will not rest until i find out what they sing in the ending

[xTxBLACKOUTxRx]

I think this song should be played at any and all funerals. It is the perfect way to say goodbye for now but we will see eachother again. R.I.P G'pa!!!

[Hipposlayer69]

I barely knew my grandfather, but it still makes me want to cry.

[poemguyjeff]

i swear i forgot i had the song playin the whole time and bugged out looking around when i heard the ending o_o

[5858i]

The ending is just fucking creepy. I swear i cant listen to it at night. #goosebumpseverywhere

[jamcow3]

Beau and his cousin with their grandpa at the end :'(

Love you guys.

Meet him at the gates.

[philli2006]

@jamcow3 I get chills listening to it :'(

[johnhimura1000]

@jamcow3 what do you mean?

[jamcow3]

@johnhimura1000 what do you mean, what do you mean?.... what is there to explain? lol

[johnhimura1000]

@jamcow3 lol i mean beau grandpa? and cousin?

[jamcow3]

@johnhimura1000 this song was written for his grandparents that both died in the past year.

The ending clip at the very end, Beau and his cousin at the hospital singing to their grandpa as he passed away.

[TehHardcore]

Why is it just silent for a few minutes?

[DR3AMxCATCHER]

@TehHardcore It's the way it's suppose to be, it's the ending song and the last part was an extra bit. Kind of like what happened on 'His Last Walk'

[TheBassmasstah]

@DR3AMxCATCHER Hmm..i feel like i know this Dreamcatcher person...who the fuck? lol :D BTF! WOOOOO!

[PassingPlanetsSUCKS]

This needs a music video..

[TheRawrkstar]

whats up with the silence and the ending?...

[Ravensfan213]

@TheRawrkstar The end was Beau and his cousin singing to their dying grandpa.....

[philli2006]

This is my favourite new Blessthefall song <3

[OfficialSleepwalker]

this song reminds me of suicide season by bmth! they are both fucking epic songs!!!

[XxXKotabearXxX]

its so amazing, and sad :/

[sanauj15]

The beginning sounds like some sort of video game XD

[woeitsgracie]

I love this song <3

[Deathandbliss]

This band really does make it diFFcult For me to pick Favorites >_<

[KakashiRockz98]

@Deathandbliss i. know. right. O.o

[tylerk743]

Beau's cousin at the end of the song singing to his dyeing uncle is sad

[MichaelSeesStars]

@tylerk743 its his grandpa

[JumpyGhostFace125]

[GodRulezD00d]

[DR3AMxCATCHER]

@GodRulezD00d Yes, it did. It took me a few days to find it. I'm glad you enjoy what little I can offer! :)

[MegaPeanutbutter13]

@GodRulezD00d no it didnt dude the people who preordered it got it early...we got it over the weekend

[ChraZ12]

@MegaPeanutbutter13 Bullshit... I pre-ordered it on the 19th on sepember and I still dont have it.....

[PassingPlanetsSUCKS]

@ChraZ12 It may depend on where you live :o

[animeperson223]

@ChraZ12 If you ordered the album from Merchnow it will be arriving a few days late because there was a product delay, that's what happened to mine :P

[MegaPeanutbutter13]

@GodRulezD00d well dream catcher might have found it but everyone else preordered it

[DR3AMxCATCHER]

@MegaPeanutbutter13 I found it but I do have it preordered, I support all the bands that I've posted. I'll be seeing them in concert soon too! :)
