@hansolowmfers I just want to second your comment. Thank you for saying that. I really can relate to what you are saying because I have been battling mental illness for years and ignoring it, but I have recently made a diligent effort to address it. I have made a lot of improvements over the last 4-5 months but I still have a long way to go to restore my mental wellness and strength. I remember coming to this song when I first made the decision to take my mental health seriously, and now I come back to it every now and then as a reminder to keep being strong and persevere. I know that was a long comment, but my point was that it is currently getting me through one of the most difficult times in my life right now, and I appreciate your comment. Wishing you the best always with everything!

I cry every time I play this song, but it brings me comfort that no other form of music can give me in my dark moments... Brandon is truly my angel of music.

I really needed to find this song. Its not my typical listening but i discovered it at the right time. Winter has been brutal on my psyche... I've thought about dying every day for the last month... a grown man struggling to fight back tears at his job, it's been terrible. But this song... the lyrics, Brandon's voice and the mood of the instruments have all sparked a great sense of hope in me. I do believe my outlook has been positively influenced for good. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to The Killers.

Your comment along with the song made me tear up a little. I totally relate to everything you said. I've been recently struggling with high levels of anxiety, that just two months ago arose out of the blue. I've had several panic attacks in the last few weeks, something i never though would happen to me. In the first few weeks of my anxiety disorder i had to deal with very invasive and dark thoughts and emotions about death, and the uncertainty of my future (they still arise once in a while). Right about that time, a guy on Reddit (going through a similar situation to me, reccomended me to listen to this very song. He said: "it has this magical soothing quality for me, like musical Xanax". I couldn't agree more with that statement. This song isn't just music. It somehow speaks to the soul. It somehow reminds me that there is more to this life than just what we can see with our eyes. I sincerely hope you're feeling better now. By what you say it sounded like you really could use some CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy). I've been taking it for a few weeks now, and along with other lifestyle changes, i've been feeling better. One day at a time. God bless.

Two years ago, one of my close friends was admitted to the hospital from an overdose while I was in college in another city. I was told be a relative of his he had a 50/50 chance of living. I was so terrified of him dying on me and me not being able to say anything to him before I came home. He is and was always a very quiet and reserved person, but to people he knew, he was always a hoot. Thankfully he made it alive, but all I did for two weeks was listen to this song as if I was saying it to him. The world didn't need to see an innocent life take itself out. I don't know why he did what he did, but I know he was hurting and lost. All I did was listen to this song and hope he made it. A powerful song for all who feel they're lost in life. You are never lost. Don't break character and rise up like the sun. Just like my friend.

Ive already received post from people that were visiting The School in Kenya & were the firat to Donate to Brittneys Books. Its only been a week sence I laid her to rest. This was suppose to be the Opening Song being played as people walked into the Church. Technical Difficulties prevented that but I have posted it to her FB page with the Story behind it. No Mother should have to lay their Child to rest before them. The pain is overwhelming. I will ALWAYS MISS & LOVE YOU BABY GIRL.

2020 COVID-19 is everywhere, I'm like 15,000 kilometers away from home, alone, got severely sick and no one next to me (even I couldn't use my phone to talk to anyone)...couldn't go back home and first time I experienced depression, loneliness and anxiety... now God sent some angels to help me (something I never expected) still away from home and don't know untill when...but this is one of the songs that gives me a lot of strenght to continue since now I "rise up like the sun and labor until the work is done" :)

"And if they drag you through the mud It doesn't change what's in your blood" Brandon is an incredible lyricist at times. That's so encouraging.

This song holds so many memories for me! Driving the Alaska highway with the love of my life. 7 years later slow dancing with him in Guatemala at a wedding! It truly is one of the most underrated songs from the killers! Don’t break character, you’ve got a lot of heart!!! Is this real or just a dream, be still!!!!!! Rise up like the sun and labor till the work is done

This song is getting me through some tough times right now. I've made a lot of career changes the past year. I'm 37 years old, single, with no kids, and I live away from all of my family members and nieces and nephews. I am currently in my second year of college to get my Registered Nursing degree, and this semester has been super rough. I put a lot of pressure on myself, and this semester has torn my spirits down after being a straight A student for the last year. Classes are hard this semester and the mixture of that while being away from my family, and having nobody local to turn to for help or guidance, or just having someone in my life to comfort me, has been super hard. This song is bringing much needed comfort to my soul right now, and giving me the desire to just try harder knowing I will get through it. Thank you Killers for such a powerful song!

I just heard this live from Harry Reid's funeral. I'm devastated .In tears.

Why this was not a single is tragedy personified.

I found out my dad several states away was having surgery and likely wouldn't make it. He'd even written out his will before the surgery. I was so afraid I wouldn't get to see him before he died and I was too broke to go see him. Someone I didn't even know gave me the money to go see him, but I could only afford one way. I went anyways and watched him die and I felt so helpless. I couldn't even afford to get home, and someone else I didn't even know bought me a plane ticket home. I feel lucky, in spite of all the pain I felt for years, to have met two people who gave so much to me just so I could say goodbye to my dad.

Absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, The Killers' best song! Like so many of you, I heard this song at a severely difficult time in my life, and what a beautiful rare gem it was was to find (I bought the album on iTunes 'cause I was a big Killers fan back then; still am). I know some people were somewhat disappointed that Battle Born was not as guitar driven as past albums, but for some reason, I didn't mind it at all. I loved Brandon's voice throughout the whole thing, enjoyed its calm and pondering on your life themes. And then "Be Still" comes on, and it was like as if The Killers made a song about my current situation and mood in my life! A song dedicated to me! I sobbed like a baby... Cried during the whole bus ride, heading to a place I really didn't want to go to back then. I still cry to this song often, and if I'm with company I try not to play it so I don't start crying all of a sudden in front of them. It is just, a beautiful song, about perseverance, life, never giving up, faith, love. "Don't break character, you got a lot of heart" just breaks me, every single time 💔. One of the few song that made me cry. If any of you are struggling through life, keep listening to this song, you are all very, very special, and you need to keep going, so that you get the life you derserve, not the hell or current situation you are living in! I'm in a better place, still not in the best of places, but there is a great amount of room for improvement. And what would life be, if we didn't have the chance of improving ourselves? You are all precious, stay blessed guys.

This year I went to college, I was so anxious about the experience, I always thought that things would be easy, cause I always thought of me as a self-regulated person (always very responsible, and kind of a nerd as some people might say). I've tried so hard just to pass all the courses, but it hasn't worked at all, I stopped caring about the things that are important to me; my hobbies, my friends and my family, damn, I was so frustrated (and I'm still kinda am). I've always listened The Killers, mostly the known songs, but about 2-3 months ago, I started listening 24/7. I remember that I was studying when this song appeared, and same as you, I couldn't stop crying, I just couldn't help it, I was so frustrated and this song made me explode. Thanks to The Killers I try not to giving up so fast, I know college is not easy at first (because that's what everyone says), and now I realize too that are other situations where people really suffer. Maybe this is a drop in the sea compared to your problems, and I kind of stupid complaining about this, anyway, I hope you're doing fine now, and keep looking for happiness. :)

But in the last minutes when I could feel my life slipping away this song came into my head. Be still. Don't break character, you've got so much heart. For the first time since my heart was ripped out I stood up and ran for help. This song saved my life.

Já somos dois. Eu quis me suicidar ontem e do nada escutei essa música. Be still

I can fairly say that this song saves lifes

LYRICS/LETRA Be still And go on to bed Nobody knows what lies ahead And life is short To say the least We're in the belly of the beast Be still Wild and young Long may your innocence reign Like shells on the shore And may your limits be unknown And may your efforts be your own If you ever feel you can't take it anymore Don't break character You've got a lot of heart Is this real or just a dream? Rise up like the sun Labor till the work is done Be still One day you'll leave Fearlessness on your sleeve When you've come back, tell me what did you see What did you see Was there something out there for me? Be still Close your eyes Soon enough you'll be on your own Steady and straight And if they drag you through the mud It doesn't change what's in your blood (Over chains) When they knock you down Don't break character You've got a lot of heart Is this real or just a dream? Be still Be still Be still Be still Over rock and chain Over sunset plain Over trap and snare When you're in too deep In your wildest dream In your made up scheme When they knock you down When they knock you down Don't break character You've got sooooo much heart Is this real or just a dream? Oh Rise up like the sun And labor till the work is done Rise up like the sun Labor till the work is Rise up like the sun And labor till the work is done

It hits me the part that says "One day you'll leave ... And when you've come back, tell me what did you see, was there something out there for me?" Is just like when you help a person in their hard times, but also you are in the same situation and want to escape too

This songs makes me want to be a father, to raise a little boy, to shelter him, to teach him to be just a person, whoever he wants to be

I don’t normally comment things like this, but one day I was studying listening to music and my mom knows I have been struggling with depression and anxiety. Out of the blue she went into my spotify account and played this for me and I cried. This song is awesome.

This song got me through those hard long runs in the dead of night while training for my first marathon

I see my daughter dancing in my head every time I hear this song

Yes... The lyrics of this song are good advice for our kids and grand kids. make perfect sense.

It's been six months and I still can't listen to this song without crying. The first time I heard this it, within a few lines, I knew it was written for his children. My own children love "Mr. Flowers and his friends" and they beg me to play this song all the time ... and sing it to themselves ... a simple. masterpiece. Thank you.

This song still gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it

This song and Here With Me had described my life in the past year

This came out right before my daughter was born. Every year I revisit it. Beautiful.

The combo of Be Still and Battle Born as kind of a 2-part track in some respects, has been huge for me in trying times. Soothing and then motivating combined

I had this song played during my cancer treatment. It is amazing! I'm 10 years old I'm sure you wouldn't think that I'm lying about such a disgraceful thing. You guys reading never ever give up in anything. Forfill your dreams and don't stop until you have.i am a cancer survivor and I did it . Never give up guys. Think of you and you family. If you do not believe me then search nasopharyngeal carcinoma. That's was my illness 6 months ago. Love you all guys.❤️

I wonder if Brandon Flowers has ever gone thru really bad times, but he sure knows to write songs that help you cope with your own hardships. I really didn't pay much attention to Battle Born when it came out, but The Killers outdid themselves with this one.

Hardship and pain is not an ordinal nor a quantity. Being human is the act of pain and overcoming. We are born unable to breath, and we leave unable to breath.

This is without a doubt their best song imo

“Is this real or just a dream” always gets me

Dig in. Ride out the storm. You can do it.

best song ever created! "and if they drag you through the mud, it doesn't change what's in your blood"

This song has such a "Southerner"/country undertone. I can imagine driving a truck in the desert but also this playing on the radio. So subtle, but still.

When my daughter graduated high school, i had a cd of all the songs that we've enjoyed together over the years during the many concerts we've attended , and i included songs that contained messages i believe hold great words of wisdom....... THIS is one of those songs!!!

This is the song my mother and I danced to at my wedding. It always makes me teary.

this song put me through my biggest moments of anxiety

At 65 I only have hope for a better America...Young people as in this great song..."Rise Up like the Sun; Labor till the work is done.." "Don't break character; You have so much heart" Great message this is what we always believe. Is up to You...no one else...

This song feels like... my mind during the darkest three years in elementary school when I was bullied so fuckin' bad. This shit brings tears to my eyes everytime I listen to it, memories are coming back. I've tried so hard to be brave and strong. Now many years have already passed, pain stays in heart forever. But time waits for no one, you must live your life as good as you can. And that's the point. You must be strong. No matter what.

Hisseok I hope your OK now. My husband was bullied too but in work. These people are bullies for a reason they want to drag you down to their level. Rise up do not give them the power take it back. Thank fully my husband was saved in time. These bullies don't know what they do. Stay safe hope your doing OK. When they knock you down don't break character.... Rise up like the sun... X

Brings tears to my eyes. I've listened to this going though some difficult times. Beautiful.

Helping me through fighting Blood Cancer, making me fight every damn thing life throws at me, I need to live for my family

Whenever I struggle with something in my life I lie down in my bed, close my eyes and listen to this song and everything gets better somehow. I'll forever be grateful I found the Killers.

Going through a very dark time in my life and this song is giving me life and peace. It took me way too many years to find out about it, but I love it.

This is such an emotional and beautiful song. One of the best i've ever heard.

I was shot in the chest two years ago April 16th. I should have died. I have since made a full recovery save for some pain and a big scar. When the nights are long and I feel like just giving up I listen to this song. It reminds me that every breath that I take is a gift. Thanks Killers for such a good song!

Gone back to this song so many times over the years. Anytime I’m feeling really down. I listen to these lyrics and it’s makes the hardships I’ve endured a little lighter 😭

I don't know how many times I've replayed this song in my life. It always gives me memories I wouldn't think of normally.

Love the killers. But only just heard this song. Blown away. Very powerful touching but sad. Made me shed a tear with a lump in my throat. This band are awesome. Hope the covid soon goes so I can see them in concert. Be still. When you get knocked down rise up like the sun !!!

This is honestly one of the best songs out there. It makes me cry almost every time I listen to it, but it is worth it. It is so uplifting, and has helped me get through so much shit life has thrown at me.

Glad you like this song Emily it is one of my favorites.Keep strong and never give in to anything enjoy your life you seem like a beautiful person

One of my favorite songs of all time. What I love is how honest it is. The Killers show their hearts on their sleeves. I have mental health issues and this song speaks to my soul

Seeing these comments make me so happy

This was the first Killers song I ever heard, needless to say it was a great introduction

Absolute pure magic... Gratitude to Brandon for creating this masterpiece and helping people around the world through music.We all try to make the world a better place and doing it the best way we can...everyone finds his own way.

this is a song I will dedicate to my daughters if they ever feel like they wanna live like I did. very fast trying to eat the world... I failed. and I lost to much opportunities... but I know life give you chances and I'm trying really hard... for them and for myself. I love so much this song. I love the killers. every song is like a piece of myself.

Brandon is amazing.

This song is perfect for hard moments in your life, you only need to listen and everything it’s okay, I love it, one of my favs

And if they drag you through the mud, it doesn't change what's in your blood ♥

This what I really need at the moment, long live The Killers

My family played this song in my cousin funeral. I love you Leslie ❤️

His voice reaches thru my chest and squeezes the hell out of my heart....and it feels so damn good!

This song is getting me through a very long night

This song literally saved my life. I love the killers, about 8 years ago I downloaded this song, I never heard it before but I just did, I figured I liked the killers so I should enjoy it. One night I was ready, I was done. I was driving my truck around three in the morning I was on an one lane highway. It goes straight for a while and then there is a left turn to go back into town. I had decided I wasn't going to turn and I was just going to go off the cliff and be done. I already made videos saying goodbye to the people I loved, explaining why I did what I did . I just couldn't do it anymore. Anyway the song had already started and I was confused as to what song was playing, I thought to myself "I don't even know the song I'm going to die to" I was already driving, took my hands off the wheel, and closed my eyes and as I listened to the words I began to cry, I felt every word down in my soul. Hearing everything I needed to hear before it was too late. I nearly missed the turn but I put my hands back on the wheel, jerked the wheel and turned. I drove home listening to this song on repeat. I know if it had been any other song that came on I wouldnt be here. Thank you to the killers. For saving my life.

This is one of those songs you listen to over and over again until you know every word

Its such a beautiful piece of writing. Please dont give up any time soon on a par with Queen. Just amazing stuff.

I dedicate this song to my son....he's overcome so much....
