Zach's Story

Zach Sobiech, of Lakeland, Minnesota, doesn't go far without his guitar in tow. Facing months to live, 17-year-old Zach is turning to music - writing and performing songs as a way to say goodbye to his friends and family.

Zach was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in 2009. Since his diagnosis, Zach has endured several surgeries and months of chemo. In May, 2012, the cancer spread to his pelvis and lungs. There are no known effective treatments left. As Zach fights to live, he remains the same joyful soul he has always been. He still smiles as brightly as he did before cancer - it just means more now.

CLOUDS LYRICS

Well I fell down, down, down
Into this dark and lonely hole
There was no one there to care about me anymore
And I needed a way to climb and grab a hold of the edge
You were sitting there holding a rope

And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now

When I get back on land
Well I'll never get my chance
Be ready to live and it'll be ripped right out of my hands
Maybe someday we'll take a little ride
We'll go up, up, up and everything will be just fine

And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear

It won't be long now, it won't be long now
If only I had a little bit more time
If only I had a little bit more time with you

We could go up, up, up
And take that little ride
And sit there holding hands
And everything would be just right
And maybe someday I'll see you again
We'll float up in the clouds and we'll never see the end

And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now

This young man is one of the bravest, and most courageous people I have ever seen in my 47 years. It's one thing to posture and "act" strong or brave but to look death in the face and meet each day with hope and joy is something most of us would fail epically. There is so much more to this song than lyrics and instruments that make it great. It's a story, a legacy, a legend. I have no pity for Zach in the least. Only respect and absolute envy. He was more a man than most men ever become.

[MrDjdavs]

Amazing human being. Really teaches you how problems are only problems if you make them so, it's all about your perspective on life. Be grateful and happy for what you have.

RIP Zach

A Canadian named Jeremiah. Could there be a worse combination? Jean Luc from France is close. I think it's a coin flip.

[Jonathan Shelley]

Literally brought tears to my eyes.. I wish I could be as happy as Zach... And the crazy part is he doesn't have much time .. I wish I could've met him man ! He's really an inspiration and blessing .. God bless !

[saberstrike18]

Rest in peace brother. You will truly be a soul missed on this planet. You are amazing.

[Oscar Reyes]

Excellent song. May God bless his family. Thank you Zach, you left an amazing legacy to the world. Your song will be remember for a long, long, long time.

[Ammon Weser]

How are there people that don't like this video? Do they not have souls?

[Jeremiah Nelson]

That's a problem? For who? You? Humanity as a whole? You honestly give a shit about something like that? That's deep man. You actually do care! :D aw There is some good in your heart, you just want people to remember his name! It's either that or you're pointing out a common pattern that reflects the sadistic nature of our society? That's pretty edgey dude, good work. Hey, I hate my name too, atleast we have that in common. C'mon keep the insults coming bannedagain12345! You love this don't yah!

[CerebralAilment]

I guess heaven was in need of some more smiles ^_^ - Your a boss Zach! Couldn't hope for a more graceful guy. Hope your up on those clouds looking out over your loved ones until they're able to join ya!

[Aaron Mazzrillo]

What a great song.

[King James MVP]

Inspiring stuff, it makes you realize how ungrateful you are when you complain about stupid stuff ... this kid had a year to live and he found a way to make it the best year of his life.. truly a hero for all teenagers
