o.O;; and here i was thinking this song was about Melora growing up and moving on to forming Rasputina and going all over the world but this adds a whole new take on it.

I love your interpretation, it gives the song a much more positive spin

[darkflower8907]

that. was. GORGEOUS! I've heard the longer version also. The end of the song has a small child singing la lala lala.

thank you!

I think this is the saddest thing I have ever seen. I can't even look at it without crying. To have lost a son, while you stood by and could have prevented it; no less, is just perfectly horrid. I ask you in all sincerity, please remove this video. My mother was standing behind me as I watched this video and was crying as hard as I was. I am crying even as I write this, I beg of you, please take this off the internet.I love the song, but the video, it's-- I'm just speachless.Take it off, please.

[myburningpixie]

No, I am not going to take this video off. I put a lot of work into it, and I think it came out very well. It's hard to strike an emotional chord with an audience, especially through youtube. Obviously I have succeeded with my video since people have such an emotional response to it. Your comment is incredibly rude.

@faitvu Really? And what right do YOU have to tell this person to take this beautiful piece of art off? Sure, it's sad, and I cried too, but, you can try to run from these things all you want to, but you can't. Taking it off the internet doesn't get rid of the fact that this kind of thing happens in REAL life, and you can't ask anyone to take anything in real life "off".

So, to you AND your mother: Suck it up. It's LIFE. It isn't sugar-coated.

@johndeets1 ..So it shouldn't be out there because of what YOU did? You do realize that there's already thousands of songs just like this one, right? It isn't saying GO KILL YOURSELF LOLOLOL. Artists should be able to express themselves without someone saying WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN HURRR. Oh and what about all those rappers who compose music about drugs and sex? Hm? Sorry its not a perfect world.

Excellent vid...

[johndeets1]

So I have to say I don't think this is a good song to have out there. I think it's beautiful, but when I was 18 and impressionable I attempted suicide while listening to this song. It's just not positive, and it's almost saying suicide is ok, and yeah, I dont know what to say.. Just ... I don't see how they could write this song and feel it's ok to put out there with all the impressionable children :/

[Jefferlaih]

The saddest Rasputina song for sure.

[SuperSkeletonGirl]

Seeing a person slit their wrists is as graphic as a Saw movie.

There is no proper way to describe the painful beauty of a composition like this. If someone thinks the subject matter is better left alone, they are only fooling themselves... life sometimes includes emotional tragedy of this magnitude.

[CharleyHale]

Throw him in the pet cementary! 

[sonofatellus]

This means a lot to me. I just survived a suicide attempt. Thank you for posting. I love this band.

@faitvu If the song has evoked this emotion from you, then it's doing its job.
