@@somethingrandom08 Your demons and he'll may differ from what others go through, know that you are not alone. Know that you mean something, that you are loved, even if everyone you know gives up on you that you can not give up on yourself. You are not a failure, you are not worthless, you are not the evil, despair, loneliness, heartbreak/ache, depression or hell that you get trapped in and have to fight your way out of. Few understand what it takes to fight such a battle and have little compassion or humanity for those who do. I like many did irreparable damage to myself, loved ones and friends as a lost soul trapped in my own hell. None of them understood the strength and determination it took to fight my way out. All I can do is offer an apology and move on, do not get stuck on who you were, let not your past or what those who knew you define your future. Stay strong and when the darkness creeps in look to whatever gives you motivation be it music a book a person or your past struggles to keep fighting. Come back here and I WIL light your darkness and pull you off the edge that you face, you do not need to face it alone friend.

@@somethingrandom08 You are a diamond in the rough my friend, people often do not understand those on the spectrum. You have a very unique experience and see things in a much simpler yet very complex way. Some of the most intelligent individuals in history were/are on the spectrum, and held answers to incredibly complex equations, problems and issues throughout humankind's existence. Those who belittle you and others do so cause they lack you intelligence, intellect and potential. They fear that more than they do their own failures, and to self validate they attack that which they fear most you instead of themselves. Something you have already done and resolved. You are not the problem but the evolutionary answer to everything wrong with humanity.

You're not alone , cant even put on a fake smile any longer . Your words " I don't live , I merely exist " hit hard since Im going through the same thing . My ex narcissist ( i did not know at the time she was one ) cheated on my while i was in cancer surgery....then send me a photo of the guy in bed with her while i still was at the hospital, just to hurt me as much as possible... Its been 2 years , then I met someone who I bealived was the " one " finally ....someone i trusted to open up for after all that ...but she just used me as a rebound because I was " I nice guy with deep feelings that listen to her " when she had some fun with me even though she said her feelings were true for me ... she went back to her ex like nothing ever happened between us ...my soul is lost , my heart is ....non existing...people just use you ...the pain you described I hear you my friend .... somethings others don't just understand if the have not been there themselves,that kind of pain words cant describe. My thoughts goes out to you and to everyone fealing this way because of different reasons, you are not alone . To you and everyone else , stay strong , you " WE" are not alone ❤️

I'm so sorry. I've been there. Too many times. I'm sorry for you and everyone else going through this shit. It's fucking hard to live when your brain tells you to die. But I'm here 12 years after my last attempt and honestly life *did* get better it's a fucking cliche. I know. But if I'd succeeded all those years ago I'd have missed out on so much love. I hope it gets better for you, you are worthy and you matter. 💜
I don’t leave comments often, but hearing “I’m so proud of you for getting this far” made me tear up and start crying, I’m one of the people my friends always goes to for support but I rarely reach out for myself, I’m always okay, always fine, they never burden me but I burden myself. Hearing it in words, someone being proud of me for getting this far, it just made me cry and i needed to cry like this today. It’s been so hard recently, but hearing this song? I really needed it, thank you so much.

I wanted to get to know my nana more because she was adopted like me, I wanted to ask advice from my grandpa about work and how he moved on from his dad wanting nothing to do with him… while trying to grieve, my mother told me to continue to work and to not cry because “(dead family member) wouldn’t want me too” and to “take an anxiety med” and to “think about other people and stop making it about me” and she wonders why I don’t talk to her or try to hang out with her

@@remonagrubbs9787 To every soul OUT THERE: All prayers from Righteous SOULS aka Born again Christians, have power. Sinners prayers GOD hears not. Unless we REPENT and born again and LIVE HOLY, GOD hears none of our prayers. Prayers have power, but these must come from Changed hearts. Proverbs 15:29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous. Psalms 119:155 “Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.” (Many souls(unsaved souls), believe falsely and pray in vain). Mankind is filled with UNSAVED SOULS (WICKED SINNERS). That`s why there`s a calling to REPENTANCE and to BORN AGAIN: Luke 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. Luke 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
I swear, I was close to lose my fight, but this music is keeping me alive. It's like the medicine that the therapists never could, and never can give me. This type of music you give is like a welcoming to a home that many people dream of. The messages you give are those words I needed to hear for my whole life. Thank you for saving my life

Having someone who can really relate tell you its okay to feel what you feel, with emotion and not just words, and to just keep trying is...cathartic. The shame and fear from fighting your own mind and hearing someone say "Accept it, but keep going. Just keep going, please." Quoting from the Stormlight Archive series, but the most important step isn't the first, its the second step. To just keep trying. Things will get better, then worse, then better again. But if you don't keep trying, you won't see those better days. Its okay to fail, to break, to have times when you feel weak and worthless. To pull yourself up and keep going is what's important. Don't let anyone, even yourself, tell you that your problems aren't worth worrying about. Its YOUR fight, your challenges. Just keep going, please.
I remember when I first found this band, the first song being “Never Good Enough”, I passed it off as a group of people just making songs. I wasn’t a big fan of the kind of music, but I really liked the instrumental. I always thought everything that others created had a meaning or motive behind it. But for songs, I did not. But then, I received a text from a friend, who I have not talked to in years. It was a message, thanking me for being by their side and for showing them how much I cared for them..just for listening to them vent and giving some advice and giving them some comfort and support for the things they did. I began to panic, thinking that I was gonna lose them, but then they sent a song by Citizen Soldier called “Found”. When we saw each other again, we cried as we hugged each other after so long. This song had me shaking in my chair because of how much I can relate to it. And with how the subtle and small details visually added to the video. I was so close to crying and I was in a family dinner. If I weren’t to find this band, me and my friend wouldn’t be here, and I’m so glad that we found this band.

Falling Floating Or Flying… Doing it alone hurts the most when I feel this uncertain about staying but one gave me all the love I never felt worthy of & I feel like I lost them…
My daughter passed away she was 7 months old. Due to sids. I begged god for a sign she was ok and safe. I didn't know this song existed, and I had my phone screen off,i didnt touch anything, and in the middle of another song, this song played. I can't explain how I felt, i cried i cried so hard. but I think my baby was trying to tell me to stay alive for her. I don't know if Citizen Soldier will see this or anything else i write, but thank you, thank you for letting her talk to me In a way I understood. You gave me a reason to live after all this pain you gave me a reason to stay. I have severe depression and suicidal thoughts constantly i wake up everyday wishing i didnt. i have pain in places invisible to others and this song keeps me going it gives me hope. It gives me some sort of light in all this dark. Im tired of saving myself. im tired of existing. I cant cry anymore. Im tired of the pain. I dont dream. There are no more good days. i just want it to go away. Music is my outlet this song is one ill never stop listening to especially when i feel like this.
"Some pain is just too much for words". I feel that in my soul. Thank you for putting words to our feelings.
The line "how many times have you counted the ways you could end it, cause you are tired of saving yourself" hit hard, I did that a few times when I fell into my darkest times it was mildly terrifying thinking back on it. Beautiful song thank you so much ❤️

The little lines like "I'm so proud of you for getting this far," "I'm a stranger at best, but please don't second guess," and "If you're hearing this song its a gift, a reason to live" just make me feel so much better and so much worse at the same time. It makes me cry, but makes me feel like life is worth living. Thank you for telling me and all the others to keep trying. Some of us may not have still been here today without it.

I wouldn't throw the baby out with the bath water, but I agree on ditching church, the Bible, the Quran, the what ever....it's a lot better. I did the same, but Im not atheist. Just took my spiritual walk into my own hands.
i wont lie, your songs make me break down, and in a strange way i love it. they hit so hard that some days i feel like they were written for the hell that my life has slowly turned into over the years.. and you actually replying to my emails, it means so much to me... i honestly look up to you guys, and have so much respect for you and what your doing...

@@CitizenSoldier thank you so much. Ever since my brother died last month, it's been a tough ride, especially with my other brother acting like a jerk. I used to make a little cuts of my arms with my nails. Wanted to do that again but then I remembered pain is only temporary
'Cause some pain is too much for words' definitely hit hard😢... 'Would anyone care' is now my official #2. This song really top it. Keep up the amazing songwriting Citizen Soldier!

Thank you so very much for this song. You expressed exactly how I'm feeling at this moment. Over two years of sacrificing all that I had and am to minister to others that need healing, and I've been left on the street with nothing for most of it, facing intensive persecution every day. Your words express exactly what that feels like and I appreciate that you willingly put them out there. God bless you and please keep being real. So tired of fake "Christian" encouragement from those in ivory towers.

Same thing here. First found them in a rough moment and it saved me. Then other songs comes out at just the proper moment that I need them in my life. Music touches my soul, like it was written about me.
This song is truly a gift. I think people rlly need this song. Thank you, Citizen Soldier, for making this song!! Ik it has rlly made my life easier knowing there are others who experience this too. You are a life saver. Keep up the great work! :D P.S: To all of you who think your alone, you aren't! I'm a Christian and I know I'm not alone bc God is with me, and you! He sent a person named Jesus Christ on the cross to save us from the sins we have that make us feel so miserable. He hasn't stopped you from feeling this way, but if you know someone loves you it's all that matters in this dark cold world. Never forget that someone loves you, and I love all of you! Have a blessed day!

I don't usually write comments but I wanted to thank you for this song. It made me cry after the first sentences and right now it gives me the feeling of safety? I don't know how to explain it but it's nice to know that I'm not the only one fighting. Furthermore I really needed to hear this song right now I guess haha. To everyone who read this far: I wish you the best and please don't forget that you're not alone. I hope you'll get through whatever you're facing right now because even when I don't know you I think you deserve to be happy. I'm happy that you're still alive and I'm proud of you, I really mean it.

I love that they have shown a different light on those who gone through so much pain and I can relate to that. Thank you citizen soldier for writing songs that show what other are going through.

I've always been alone. I have tried to reach out but it always fell on deaf ears. I normally never cry but this song broke me. Im glad I found this song. I never knew how badly I needed to hear all that.
this song is so amazing. this song hits really close to home. i'd be lying if i said it didn't make me cry. reminds me of "Found." in some ways. like, the message behind it. thank you guys so damn much for your music. you have no idea how many people are still alive because of your songs.

So I turned right crossed the street, still crying. Met 2 young gentleman who listened and the one said, God loves you❤. I blew my nose and got some religious books and courage books. I spent 5 days in the psych ward. ( I checked myself in at the urging of my best friend. Now I'm back at my full-time job and slowly getting my finances in order. Hooked up withrescorces too.
Nothing brings the tears like Citizen Soldier’s heartfelt songs. Just hearing these messages of understanding, hope, and strength from someone like Jake who’s been there and done that already means so much to me. “I’m proud of you for getting this far”, right back at you Jake.
