Nah. The rhythm guitar makes me realize I didn't know much about music back then.

" when I got tired of running from you I stopped right there to catch my breath, There your words they caught my ear, you said "I miss you son come home" and my sins they watched me leave and in heart I so believed the love you felt for me was mine the love I'd wished for all this time, and when the doors were closed I heard no " I told you so's " you said the words I knew you knew, "oh God oh God I needed you, God all this time I needed you...I needed you".....🥺😭

I don't know if it's pain or joy I feel

This song is part of the reason I am here today. I was sitting in my car in the parking lot as a junior in high school, and long story short I felt the urge to just drive max speed into a tree and end it. But I prayed first, "God, I'm gonna put my iPod on shuffle, and I doubt there's any song in here that could change my mind... but if there is, it better be the first one cause I'm gonna start driving if it's not." And it was this song. I almost skipped it and laughed cause I hadn't really listened to the lyrics before and thought it was just a dumb Christian rock song. But I felt urged to listen... and it spoke everything I was feeling, everything I needed to hear, and everything I needed to say. "God all this time, I needed you." I thought I had God. But in reality it was just an identity thing, like an "I'm a Christian" sticker to wear when it mattered to someone. But inwardly I was a creep, a cheat, a lazy loser who coasted on other people's effort and soaked up undue praise and had deluded myself into thinking everything bad in my life was someone else's fault. And whenever I was faced with the fact that something was my fault, I hated myself and trashed myself and thought I might as well die because, as the singer says, "I don't wanna deal with that." This song... It said everything that needed said. I've had the pleasure of sharing this song with my own teenage daughter, at a time when she felt what appeared to me to be the same way I was feeling. I hope it helped her. It's still helping me. God bless you all. Know that facing up to our consequences is worth it. It won't kill you, and you'll come out less damaged than you ever thought you'd be, having discovered the fact that criticism and self-criticism won't kill you, and that life is both hard and worth living. God knows you and loves you. So know Him and love Him, and you will know and love yourself without fear.

Is there another reason to listen to this album?

36 year old here and been listening to Relient K for 23 years. Somehow, these songs still resonate hard, never get old and are still smash hits. This band is not only the best Christian band of all time, but also belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They are almost unparalleled and are legit one of the best bands of all time.

Now that I’m 26, i think this band hits the way it was intended…..God bless you everyone❤️

I know you commented this 2 years ago, but I literally just had this exact thought. Reliant K was my favorite band when I was in middle school. I knew they were Christian back then, but always applied their lyrics to worldly things... Now, at 30, their music hits so much differently. In the best way possible. So glad God showed me them back then, even if I didn't quite understand. It allowed me to come back to them, today, for the first time since probably 2007. Rest assured that I'll be adding all of their music to my playlist. 😌🙏

I’m 38. Started listening at 19 just because I loved Relient K’s sound. Didn’t pay much attention to the lyrics. But the whole album hits the way it’s supposed to now for me.

I used to listen to this when I was a kid and I just liked the song because it was pretty hype😂 BUT NOW I relate waaayyy too much

I think Relient K were the best pop punk band ever! Oh, the mid-2000s'!

OK, great! Let's just remember to study the Bible very well daily........So God has shown me that "punk" refers to a bad kind of person so we need to use terms that please God. Now, not all of us including myself will not immediately understand God about various things like this one. To that he lovingly understands us and works to make us holier. Praise you God!!!! What do you all see the wisdom I shared?

Hah listen to deathbed by relient k it hurts way more

By mistakes you mean sin. This a great song.

When I got tired of running from you... you said I miss you son come home... the love I wished for all this time... when the doors were closed I heard no I told you sos... god oh god oh God I needed you. God all this time I needed you I needed you... My favorite parts. No song continously can make me tear up except for this song. I feel so happy and so broken. So overjoyed and useless. The fact I sin a million times a day and I'm still loved. It's a crazy idea to think of and the fact that it's real continues to baffle me the same way it did when I learned of it.

I am identifying with the part that says I want to fix my mistakes. The part that says I wish I had more self control over sin. Sin has consequences.

20 years from now I'm gonna write a super motivating comment about how this song changed my life no but seriously I really love this song and relient k in general

i remember when I saw them live, I was 17 years old and it was the best night of my life:(

I like this type of music. I just found the band, and I personally enjoy the words and the hype of it.

Old times. A lot memories

God all this time I needed you ❤

Recently rediscovered Relient K. It goes hard.

Such a fantastic ending. I have no idea why they would never play it live.

I’m 40, I remember the first time I saw these guys on MTV with be my escape, I started listening to some of their other songs and was blown away! I’ve been a fan ever since. I’d love to see new songs with the same heart as these older songs.

I remember getting this CD for Christmas when I was like 13, now I'm almost 30 and hits just as hard if not harder

I always ready up myself before I listen to this song every now and then. But I really can't control it. Have to pause midway to keep the tears from falling. Especially when you're not alone in a room.

i just broke up with my girlfriend. because... i cheated on her. and i needed to bear the consequences of that one thing she always reminded me never to do. i bore the consequences for almost a year, the constant reminders from her of what i've done. but then again, i know its my fault, its my wrong. i'm not guilt free... i find it so hard to forgive myself for what i've done.. "oh God... oh God... i need you" this love that i've tried to search for in this life... i never found it in this world thank you Relient K for writing this song, i used to listen to it when i was a kid, cause my older brother (by 10 years) had it.. now i really relate to it
