This song still kills me and probably always will. But you know it hurts for a reason, and that's part of being alive. If you can feel it you're still here.

My fiance was in a terrible car accident over the holidays and passed away on Christmas day after fighting for her life for a week in the ICU. She was my soulmate and my best friend and I spent the first 26 years of my life looking for her only to lose her after a year of being together. This song is the first thing I have heard that says so many of the things I have wanted to say but couldn't find the words.

I don't know if I should cry about the song or how beautiful this comment section is.

Dad died yesterday in front of us. Resuscitated 4 times revived 3 times. It's weird, I could save the people who need me but I couldn't save the people that I needed in my life. Don't worry dad I'll get by.

Lyrics: I used to listen to my life, I was so put together, I chose what I wanted to be in that age of chasing sand, the age of believing in everything, but I couldn't save you, I couldn't save what was taken away, and I'm still singing, and you still can't stay. You "loved life," and those words have lasted, I just wish I would have had ears for more than what you said because I still feel the lack long after. Such a light body, such a quiet gait leaving behind the weight of the world, I'll always think it was too early to lose your shine, I guess the means that ends us means nothing, I just hope it's the peace we all need, Because I could love and drown in your God damned smile lines, but I think I burnt up watching you rallying to stay alive, and I guess that's fine. It seems we all get sick, we all die in some no name hospital with the same colored walls, and I guess that's fine, but I want to swallow, I want to stomach, I want to live. It's been a rough while and some days are worse than others, there's no proper way to feel, no mirth, no levity, no amazing grace, just a flame on a lake floating away, I can't let you lay, I want you to know, I'm learning patience against my will, I want you to know, I'll get by, always barely scraping with just a hunger, with just a heart apart, it's a hell of a thing.

Keep your head up, you'll get by. You always have.

I saw these guys the other day without any idea of who they were, and the way he screams these words out was the most touched i've ever been at a gig, without knowing a single word.

tracked 9 all the music leading up to this album was about having to watch one of his parents slowly and unbearably wither away from MS. Houses We Die In was the epitome of him telling the story but there's Cripples Can't Shiver, this song and much more on this album. So, it makes sense for you to feel that connection bc essentially this band is practically telling your story of emotional withdrawal and hardships as well. I'm sorry your loved one passed and in that way. I hope the connection with this band has grown deeper and with anything else in the world that can bring you some ease and relief. Remember it's okay to not let go bc we shouldn't have to but we can change our views and approach to everything to make sure we're okay if we don't let go. I hope life has been treating you well and something you've been needing has come into your life.

My sister passed away 3 weeks ago from cancer (she was 37, young). There's nothing like this pain and this album puts it into words as close as it can be. I used to listen to this album every day when I was going through a tough time in high school, but now this album hits completely different. It brings the grief out but in a way its strangely consoling. I miss you Sara. My only consolation is that you are better now.

I love you and miss you so much dad.

Just saw these guys live tonight with La Dispute and Mansions. Great show. They're perfect live.

I'll well up every time I hear that real pain in his voice.

i saw these dudes with la dispute, and without knowing a single word, ive never felt more touched just by the feeling of the music. fucking beautiful and haunting.

Since listening to this song around 3 years ago, I've listened to it almost every day, and I'm still taken back by the emotion that it carries. And christ, when the song comes to a close, and the vocals end, that last message just kills me.

I miss my old self.

Houses we die in is my go to when I need to break down and cry

I miss you more than words can say grandma. I hope everyone here finds peace and love through the loss.

having this on repeat for hours.. this song explains everything ive ever felt these past couple days.

that build up between 2:05 - 2:30 will forever give me the chills.

This encapsulates loss in a way I've never come across before

When I was 15, my adoptive mother lost her fight to cancer. I was put into a a hospital about two years later and a worker showed me this song and ever since it’s been her song. This song not only represents how I felt for the years of wanting her to stay but the years of knowing she was going. How my entire life fell apart and changed. This song made me change myself yet again to I could survive.

Saw these guys supporting La Dispute a couple weeks ago. Epic show! I had never heard them before but well worth seeing live.

One of my bestest friend, and my very best friend died in a car crash in January. Two weeks ago my little cat also died because he was born with big kidneys, so the started to fail. I just don't know what to think. I really loved those two guys like fucking hell, I knew them since I was 17, in a month I'll be 27... I really loved that lil cat, he followed me everywhere I went, he was always with me, he was helping me to cope with all the bullshit i've been living this year...

Sometimes I spin this record and just sit still. I absorb the music, the lyrics, the atmosphere, and the emotion. I pretty much always cry because it's both depressing and peaceful. Between personal loss and struggles, the lyrics, and then reading comments here on KZread, it's impossible not to. This is one of those "I'm glad I didn't do it" albums.

Saw this band live, what an experience.

This song makes me think of my momma, 2 best friends Nd grandma that all died in a 6 month period of time. I love and miss you all ❤

thankssssss one of the best songs off of the lack long after

each day feels the same, losing you defines me.

every time I hear "I could love and drown in your god damn smile lines" it wreaks me.

"I just wish I would have had ears for more than what you said because I still feel the lack long after."

I feel the same way as you. December last year this song and this band meant a lot to me and still do. This song and many others saved me and this song brings back so many memories of the pain I endured during one of the roughest moments of my life. I hope you too find peace man.

At first listen I thought this song was just okay but then I listened again and again. I read all the lyrics and just felt the pain that they were trying to convey to the listeners. I lost my Uncle last October due to a heroine over dose and now my sister is battling the same addiction. I felt like I had no where to go but this song. So in a weird way I thank this band for being in the same emotional state that I am in as of now cause it has helped a lot. In the end I know that I'll get by.

cant wait to see them on June 8th!!!

The first time I heard HIDING i was so overcome with the emotions that he expresses through his voice. It's so painful yet so beautiful. This is what real music is.

This song came out a year after I lost my dad to cancer my senior year of high school…I showed it to my mom and read her the lyrics. We cried together. She wanted to play it at his funeral but we didn’t bc of his family and the genre. I wish we did. Still jamming it 10 years later, came back to it bc I’m currently losing my 93 yo grandmother to congestive heart failure….

This song is so bittersweet.

2020 i still listen to this band they helped me so much when i moved away alone i love this band with a passion and will never stop i love you guys and please make more music!!!!

This song exactly describes what it feels like to see someone you love getting sicker everyday while you can do nothing else but to let it happen. It's a rough thing to go through and I too experience the lack long after.. :)

I was not prepared for this emotional Rollercoaster

This is obviously the point of their expression. Its not for everybody, some people's lives are too small to comprehend true art; a great loss for them. Glad we could be a part of the guttural truth in feeling.

This song is so powerful

Saw these guys last night with La Dispute in Pittsburgh. Awesome dudes, awesome show! Definitely made a new fan out of me.

Broke down when I heard this live. So much raw emotion in all of their music I love it.

Bloody amazing, one of my favourite songs off the album. Gutted I missed them on this tour too :(

i always come back to this song since i lost my father last year.

10 freaking years

See you there. I am very much looking forward to that show !

Holy crap, first time listening to this band, eyes opened wide when it started, amazing!!!

It's been a rough while and some days are worse than others, there's no proper way to feel, no mirth, no levity, no amazing grace, just a flame on a lake floating away.

I love when a band reminds me of awful things, makes me cry, just to let me feel more alive than ever.

this band is just so great. those screams are some of the most emotional screams ive ever heard and i love them so much.

I can understand where you are coming from. But for me this fits so much better.

Stuck in in stationary traffic, I got the call I hadn't made it in time. I remember breaking down emotionally and just spamming this CD/Song on repeat for the entire drive home. Never have I felt that the screaming fit a song so perfectly and beautifully before.

Please please support these guys and bands alike who truly deserve

It's a hell of a thing.

Man, I can't wait to see them live!

Incredible song/band. "I just wish I would've had ears for more than what you said, 'cause I still feel the lack long after." is as gut-wrenching as it gets. Ooof.

man people just havent hit that point yet man when he does bro he will be so enlighted because to hear such emotion is a gift a blessing earned over time we will just have to wait...but your comment is perfection in all forms and should stay top forever.
