Me and my husband are both recovering addicts. When he relapsed and our family fell apart I felt every word of this song. We were apart for a little over a year. I just got 6 years and he now’s got 2 months clean and sober. I played this for him and we both cried. I’m so happy to have my husband back. ❤ I love watching the light in his eyes light up again and just for today I don’t have to feel like this. Thank you tor this song

Raw, real, painful, and full of emotion! Something to be said when an artist can take a song and strip it down to basically a vocal! and still sing with such conviction! Expecially where the song comes from... I guess what I'm saying is he shines when he's the most vulnerable! 👍

This is pure genius. I cannot believe that this video has not gotten more views. Justin's way of getting inside every note and bringing it to life in such a way that raptures every emotion is unreal. I have heard a lot of bands over the years, but few have impacted me in the way that these guys have and if you haven't experienced them live you're really missing something incredible. There are contenders and legends .These guys are definitely legend!

I love this song. I saw these guys when they came out with their album "Foiled." I love Justin because he lays it all out there. He lets us all see his bleeding heart. He's really just so raw and emotional. I connect and empathize with him very much. I love this song. I am struggling with a custody battle and have not seen my daughter in 2 years only because I do not have money for a lawyer, that's all. So, this song really does speak to me. My ex-husband is legit letting me bleed out.

Dave Emplit that’s what makes Justin so amazing...

I've had the pleasure of seeing them live a few times and actually got to meet them at the last show I went to.... and I swear... the level of emotion that he dumps into each performance is astounding. I personally burst into tears at one of the shows when he went into Let it Go. He took a song that is already painful for me... and turned it into a red-hot poker right into my soul. It was funny though... when I met them, after they released this album (Sway) Justin was so... jovial and light hearted. It was hard to see him as that guy who shoulders so much hurt. Which goes to show you.... life can change at any moment. If you ever get a chance to see them live... do it. Their tix are usually dirt cheap.

Songs like this that you can feel the emotion behind and the singer blasting out their feelings are priceless.

Wow! He belts out all that incredible emotion and ends with a small quiet "thank you." I've listened to alot of music but never have heard anyone meet or match Justin Furstenfeld. Always a story and sound that mesmerizes.

So emotional. Love it. No way you can watch and not get goose bumps

What an incredibly talented man.

I know this is a few years late but my cousin begged me to listen to it. When U did almost cried with him. We are cousins that are almost 40 yrs old. Justin is amazing and the band is heavily under appreciated. Everyone deserves to hear his life messages and Im not sure why they are not being played more on the radios. Beautiful song

This is my all time favorite song and that is saying something but goodness the way Justin just throws all the emotions into it. I have always loved Blue October. They have always had a way of just expressing pure raw emotion and I can't thank them enough for all the times they have gotten me through. I have bled out so many times for the man I love and I had to walk away and it kills me every single day. I'm still bleeding and it will never stop. But thank you for this incredible story and song and real life message. Blue October is just an amazing band and they definitely do not get the credit they deserve!

Beautiful doesn’t even begin to describe this! The fact that he could take the way his wife feels when he’s doing wrong Will be the difference in them making it and not making it. This coming from a wife who’s been with a man who has struggled with addiction and cheating but we are now in the best place we’ve ever been because he was able to do this as well. I’ve been a fan of blue October before most were and I always will be. This is TRUE TALENT!

This is (thee expression )of real music never have I heard a better vocalist and song writer in my 33 years of existence and also let’s not forget his band ! This dude can piano and violin ..amazing talent just amazing there isn’t many songs that can touch and give you chills like Justin can ... Sorry Justin society sucks they don’t know real music it’s all shit these days that people seem to like but I ain’t one ! This band is the only one I will write about never have I seen such a band make suck great music and be so under appreciated!!!!! (Thank you Justin for this )

This song is the most profound songive ever heard in 39 years!EVER!

Justin was born to sing!!!!! Never give up!!! Sing Justin all time long... With all your emotional feeling und pain❤❤❤ Greetings Form Germany

The empathy in this song is true emotions. Energy in motion and finding yourself through others eyes

I play this for my addiction, and remind myself how powerful it is and how weak i can be and it feels good to enjoy the same lyrics and sit with my sober self!! My addiction kept me alive through trauma and almost killed me creating the same!! Loving life one day at a time!!

So obsessed wit his voice. Hits ya right in ur feels.

Love, love, love, always hitting the right spot. Thank you for being human and telling the hurts of the heart and soul..

One of my ultimate favorite BO songs. Like many others have said, I wish this version was on an album. It's gorgeous and emotional. Everything they touch turns to gold, in my opinion. My heart goes out to him.

This song...just gets me every time.

Thank you Blue october, 2 weeks sober today, I listen to this and light you up every day I feel temptation, I cant wait to see you in knoxville!

Absolutely amazing!! Chills through my whole body.

Amazing...every note is felt...it feels like a tribute and apology to his wife...that he knows what it was like for her. That he has accepted his past, and is moving past his darkness...and she is his light.

I saw this band perform 3 years ago at night at an outdoor event and they brought the house down. Seeing this acoustic performance for the first time I'm just like WOW!!! Justin can sing without a doubt!

So incredibly emotional song ❤ 🤘 should of gotten more views and likes. Justin is an incredible singer to be able to sing this live with perfection. Love this band and what they stand for✌

He got choked up and my soul shattered. Uggghhhhhhh I love this man

I love justins voice and how much heart he puts into his music. He lets his soul and love for his music take over when he sings. I see and feel everything when i watch him sing

The emotions he pours out is gripping sad and beautiful

I gave it all but you can't stop taking from me

the emotion in his voice, is stunning! One of his best acoustic in my opinion

This song will always hit me in feels. This acoustic version is hands down the absolute best work of art my ears have ever had the pleasure of hearing. Justin I LOVE YOU

Wide awake Like a dream As simple as a secret Being told, told to everyone but me Will I I gave it all But you can't stop taking from me And way down I know You know where to cut me With your eyes closed It won't be long Til this heart stops beating So don't let me Bleed out here alone Hear my plea You won't hear my plea Sudden rain Coming down It all comes back to me Waking up, falling down Another day Come undone I keep trying to heal your pain In return, you cut me over and over One more time and I will I gave it all But you can't stop taking from me And way down I know You know where to cut me With your eyes closed It won't be long Til my heart stops beating So don't let me Don't leave me Bleeding alone I finally feel like I'm supposed to be, yeah, oh Don't you take this moment away from me But before you kill me wont you Wont you look back in my eyes and watch me I gave it all But you can't stop taking from me And way down I know You know where to cut me With your eyes closed It won't be long Til my heart stops beating So don't leave me don't let me Bleed out here alone Hear my plea I gave it all But you can't stop taking from me And way down I know You know where to cut me With your eyes closed It won't be long Til this heart stops beating So don't leave me don't let me Bleed out here alone
