I often think of my dad hearing this. He had his demons and unfortunately it took his life. At his funeral, nobody had anything to say, not even the preacher. His family judged him and shut him out, and even when he passed they had the nerve to judge him. Yet they never understood, nor did they know him. Not like me and my family did. He was a good man, despite what they’d say. He struggled all his life, I hope you got your wings dad. Rest now and fly free.

"What a shame, to have to beg you to see, we're not all the same" Powerful lyrics. This song is almost 11 years old, but still speaks the truth about the world today, and I fear it always will. It doesn't matter your race, religion, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, or anything, we're all human, and it's time for everyone to be accepted for who they are, no matter what anyone say

I've never seen a band truly appreciate their fans like Shinedown does. I even got to meet them after the concert, talk to them and such, they are so nice. They wanted to shake my hand and have a little chat before signing anything. A Shinedown concert is one that you won't forget, that's for sure!

Even scientifically, this is true. Baryon Asymmetry is a phenomenon that proves this. In the early universe, particles of antimatter and matter began to form. Instead of an equal amount of both, for every 10 billion antimatter particles, there was one extra matter particle. When the two meet, they annihilate, leaving radiation behind. Due to this asymmetry, matter came out victorious. Think of that, due to this flaw early in cosmology, Stars, Planets, Galaxies, Nebulae, and life were able to form.

This song reminded me of something. It helped me remember the missing part I've been looking for. Tolerance and patience. Acceptance. In a world full of people who spend every waking moment judging others, sometimes it's hard to remember how to not be like that too. I went so long knowing I've changed, but never really sure how or why. I'm going to try harder from now on to hold my ground and not be swayed by the judgements and opinions of those around me. I like myself more when I accept others at face value. I hate it when I'm forced to judge and push them away.

As an ex-addict, this song pulls me in. It's telling us that we have no right to judge how people cope with the world, and although there are asshole addicts, there are also ones that want to be free, but whose addiction holds them like a prison. This song says that not all addicts are alike and we're PEOPLE man. We're not skeletons with needles in our arms. We have parents. We got report cards and we made crafts in kindergarten. We cried over weight gain in middle school and over boys in high school. We weren't born with a candle and a spoon. We earned them. We have souls and there's more to a druggie than meets the eye. Some of us love the world and everyone in it. Some of us know love better than anyone else.

Rehab and detox, but the best thing to do is remember why you're doing it and keep reminding yourself of the feeling of waking up and not needing whatever it is. It's an incredible feeling to wake up and say "I want it, but don't need it. I can live on my own without the drugs, I can spend my time, money and energy on good." The physical part of getting away is hard enough, but if you don't have faith in yourself, then it can't happen. I really hope that you're able to break the chains. It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do, and it will be hard for you too, but you just have to keep going and not let the struggle push you back. Remember that relapse is okay. You're recovering. Just try to stay strong.

Thank you! These are excellent and I use them every day, especially in my running. sherrie Duckworth I have recently become a vegan and exercising and the feeling of having to work for you food, and being able to produce something for yourself is the best feeling in the world. Let yourself get flour everywhere and fuck up recipes. There is nothing more satisfying than finding out "oh this sauce from my prevegan life has meat in it. Oh well. to the local Food Pantry it goes." and then going outside to your very own garden and picking the tomatoes, garlic, onions, basil and cilantro to make your own. It's incredible to be able to take care of yourself and wake up loving everything you are. I'd suggest exercising, doing yoga, becoming a vegan or converting to a religion that you believe in. I'm a Buddhist, and that and becoming a vegan are the two best ways that I've gotten away from the drugs. It's good to feel clean in every sense of the word.

I love their new stuff, don’t get me wrong, Special is my personal favorite from Attention Attention but I really do miss the pre-amaryllis Shinedown. I mean Amaryllis, Threat to Survival, and Attention Attention have all been super awesome records for sure. But Leave a Whisper-Sound of Madness were just completely awesome and will always be some of my favorite albums by any band ever.

A girl broke up with me about 4 years ago and this song always reminds me of the pain, not that she left me, that she got with someone else 2 weeks later, I listened to this constantly, when I was on the bus, train, when i was gaming, Even in the pub when I put it on, used to make me cry. Now I look back on those times with happiness when I hear this, because it gave me comfort, and now even though life is getting in the way of being easy, this makes me smile. It gets easier. Kepp going, stay strong you beasts.

I've listened like 4 times in a row now and that last chorus still gives me chills.

The Sound Of Madness was an amazing Cd and this song was by far my favorite off the album,

After a friend introduced me to Shinedown, well fell in love with what they are about... Stories they tell are amazing, never a dull moment

I feel this song that explains me down to my core, no one will understand who i am till they hear this song. There will never be another song on this planet like this one nor will there ever be another band like shinedown!

No song has spoke out more to me than this one. This song is number one in my overall songs. It's in my favorites, i've bought this album, and I've listened to this over probably a hundred times... it's just, BEAUTIFUL!

ive listened to this song 26 times today and it hsnt gotten old and it never will!

Everytime I write a tragic character in a book this is one of the songs I listen to

One of my very favorite songs🎧🎤🎵

Played this song at my uncles funeral, had this song existed previously, would have been at my dads as well, what a song, so much raw, real emotions true words spoken, why wait to realize we're not all the same

I think of my uncle when I hear this he had demons and smoke and drank heavily. He loved the world, life and people about always got treated like crap and it ultimately took his life. The full of sympathy for a world thay wouldn't let him be part really resonated with me. I watched him self destruct from a toddler. People judged him and he knew that and it hurt more because he just wanted help.

I found this song right when I had recently found out a close family friend had committed suicide, he had a major drinking problem and it costed him everything from jobs to girlfriends until the point he felt that he needed to end it all. He was a great man even with his known problems he was the type who would go out of his way to help you with whatever he can at any given moment, he was actually the only person who stepped forward without complaint to help my family move out of a house we lived in 20 plus years when we had no help from anybody... He worked his ass off and still had trouble getting by. (Some was self induced but still).. In the end it was such a waste of a life. I hope he has his wings now and found the peace he wanted. R.i.p Rob you will be missed.

I don't understand why this was never released as a single! Absolutely one of the best ever, just listen to the lyrics!

My favorite Shinedown's song... that song is incredible, the instrumental part, and the lyric part, being this last one the better one... "That's the man he was, have you heard enough?" is like the best combination of words I have ever seen. That song talks about poverty, talks about how can a man be afraid of be something or not to be it, and talks about the past, and the future. That song also talks about how the world sees you, and... this song talks tells that you have to comprehend yourself, and all the people in the world. "What a shame, 'cause we're not all the same" A lot of people feel like they're alone in the world, they ideas are extravagant and uniques and they also ask to themselves "How can't they be like me?!" and I'm one of these kind of people, but... I understood that: you just have to be yourself, it doesn't matter if people isn't mature enough, or they can't understand you and your ideas. You can't think about what differences the world with you, you have to be strong and think about what makes you the same as the other seven thousand million people in the world. That songs talks about all this things, that's why that's my favorite one. PS: Sorry about my english, I know it's not too good, but I tried my best. xDD

Check out theory of a dead man if you wanna expand your taste

My son took his life four days ago. I was so proud of him because despite his "successful" father's constant judgment and hurtful words, my son became a navy corpsman who saved lives, and after his tours, he started his own very successful business with no one's help. He became a pilot, married and had a beautiful daughter and son. It still wasn't enough. My boy is at peace now and no one can ever hurt or belittle him again. Never forget - words kill. Mom is still proud of you, my beautiful boy. I love you.

This song makes me quiver all over, just love this. His voice is unbelievable and awesome. My favorite song of his, along with Burning Bright. Can't get enough of his voice and songs.

2019 and still listening on repeat.

I love this song. Partly because the rhythm and melody but also because of its meaning. It's my favourite Shinedown song... It's beautiful.

"That's the way that I see Life if there was nothing wrong then there'd be nothing right" AMEN

this song is so deep...if we"d all understand it this world will become a paradise

it will help a little but the world is always gunna be a fucked up place because theirs always gunna be people who are either happy and don't care or depressed and wanting to kill themselves that's human nature for you

There’s a hard life for every silver spoon, a touch of grey for every shade of blue. Truer words haven’t been spoken

Love shinedown there songs are too good wow I could listen to em on repeat forever

This song explains me. This song is me... Thank you at least someone understands!!!

This song reminds me of my childhood best friend in the army who survived a suicide attempt. I love you bro, I'm glad you got another chance at life

Shinedown is a Great Band and this song is very moving!

Their most Powerful Song ! Wish Smith would still write songs like this one ......

Omg I love all these types of songs with meaning that anybody can relate to. These artists are just the storytellers and narrators for these song stories. Love music. 🙏🏼 🙏🏼

I love this song so much! the lead singer's voice and the style of the song kinda remind me of Nickelback (who I love as well!) :D

Definitely. I'm 40 and they remind me of my rock music back in the 80s-early 90s and some of the alternative from early 2000s. Most music nowadays sucks. Sad I just now learned of these guys. That's how much I've hated music in the last decade or so. I didn't listen

I want this played at my funeral!!

great lyrics, we lack appreciation for this kind of music these days, love shinedown since 'leave a whisper'' to 'threat to survival'

This was the song associated with my brother when he was on meth. Then, he got clean, had two beautiful kids, and recently lost his 21 mo old daughter to a terrible accident. He is still standing, and didnt turn back to drugs. This song more than ever makes me think of him.

"What a shame to have to beg you to see we're not all the same"

Damn, this song tells my life story so well.....

Know there's at least one person out here praying for you. I'm Christian, and I truly believe in it. You most certainly don't have to care, but I know God loves you. He understands your pain - sent His son to die for it. You have support from out here in the internet.

Loved it, over and over I listen to this, the whole album is the best ever.

10/10 just amazing

This band has astonishing lyrics. Wonderful.

Yeah know I've had my ups and down. Been to hell and back a few times. But this is one of the bands that the music just connects to you. All I can say is thank you to them for getting it. A song that can connect and mean something can save someone no matter how dark there life looks at that moment. I truly thank them for that. The lyrics clicked with me. I may have to struggle everyday but I know there is a chance for an up side to life and to just see it through
