I’m one of the ones who heard this on criminal minds and immediately googled the lyrics to find out what song this was! I started crying as soon as I played this video. Your voice is amazingly beautiful and this song is so powerful. I love artists like you.
This song isn’t about drug addiction in the literally sense. It’s about being addicted to someone you’re in love with, but who never loved you back. This is every single word my head, heart and soul screamed at my ex during our marriage, especially when I finally started to break away and leave. Only then did he act like he wanted me or cared. I tried to leave three times before the actual divorce (three attempts at sobriety) and each time he put on his act and I stayed (three relapses that lasted years). Thank you for putting such raw, real pain into song. It’s 3 minutes and 37 seconds of pure healing and self-forgiveness.
After that criminal minds episode I found this song and it’s been a favorite of mine since. Makes me feel strong and let’s me cry my fears and stress away. This song is amazing and so is your voice
This is a great choice for Criminal Minds Broken Wing if you listen to the lyrics. He’s talking about a relationship using the metaphor of addiction and the breakup being sobering up. In the episode the killer started killing after his wife, who was an addict, died. You could say he was addicted to her and the line “now that it’s over, and I’m sober (she’s gone/the relationship is over) the pain is so real” hits different
You managed to put the ending of a love with an addict into words. I realize that you're saying you're sober from your love affair but it's so relatable to loving an addict. What a way with words and what a gift you have!
My daughters and I are hooked! We r here in Zim and so proud of you. My daughter says Taps lays his life on the line every time he sings, it's like he puts it all out there, holds nothing back as if there's no tomorrow.....and I said that's right and that's his gift, we feel his voice. She said yes, it's as if we are right there with him. Thank you Taps. God bless you.
This song is such a masterpiece of slow music. Piano and strings are so powerful that could break your heart again, and lyrics speaks from both perspectives - the one who stayed and the one who went away. And the silences between words....
Taps, your voice & lyrics in the first few seconds of this song were so powerful on that #CriminalMinds episode. Hearing it & watching the tragic character show those tattoos, with that expression on his face brought me to tears. It was so profoundly moving that I had to find the creator of this beautiful sound. LOVE your voice! ❤
This is absolutely beautiful, it played at the end of Criminal Minds and I went hunting for the song! Just bought it and I know I'm going to be listening to it on repeat.
I met my husband when I was in active addiction. I got sober 07/06/2018, my marriage rapidly fell apart once I stopped using drugs to cope with my trauma. I picked up my divorce papers today, in 30 days, I will officially be single again. This song makes me cry, but it also helps remind me that these raw emotions I use heroin and/or meth to hide are ok to feel. My pink cloud has popped...my world is crumbling...but relapse will be certain death.
I am so happy that you're in recovery. It's a hard road in the beginning and it takes time but your life will absolutely get better. You are taking control of your life back. Stay near those who move you forward and not backwards and in time you will become the best of who you could possibly be. And you'll bring joy to the people who love you. Best of luck. 💕🤞
Hang in there, cry, yell, fight as much as you need and one day soon you feel a tiny window in your pain. Maybe a minute when you are perfectly ok. That window will become bigger and more frequent. But that first tiny window means everything.
Dont normally reply to comments on UA-cam, but I 7/6/18 is a special day for myself..its also the day I entered recovery. We all have different struggles, but stay strong. It's hard to look back at the pain you are going thru/caused, but your happiness is most important. I'm proud of you..one day at a time.
I was binge watching Criminal Minds - normal evening. Put my 5 little kiddos to bed for some me time. I instantly heard this song and my whole being paused, I swear my heart stopped at the sound of your voice. I started singing at 2 years old - and music is my passion. Music does so much for a person’s soul, and every now and then a song comes into my life that touches me. This was that song. Thank you for sharing your gift. *If you’re ever looking for a duet you know where to find one!*
When you hold me You can't even see the pain my face is hidin' You don't even know how much my heart is breakin' Cause you don't seem to care at all When you touch me You don't even feel the love I give is dyin' And nothin' that you do is satisfyin' But I did my best to love you anyway But now that it's over and I'm sober This hurt that I feel is so real Don't you get closer I get colder, the longer you hold me near When you kiss me You can't even tell my lips don't even want you Sad as this may be but, this is what you do You win my love and you steal my heart But now that it's over and I'm sober This hurt that I feel is so real Don't you get closer I get colder, the longer you hold me near I wanted you to be the one Tasted your love and now it's done And you led me on And I followed you You're my drug of choice What could I do But now that it's over and I'm sober This hurt that I feel is so real Don't you get closer I get colder, the longer you hold me near Now that it's over and I'm sober This hurt that I feel is so real Don't you get closer I get colder, the longer you hold me near
Wow it is absolutely AMAZING.....Your Best song ever! And one of the Best Songs Ever! Congratulations Taps and Good Luck, I hope this is the Song that makes it Big for you. Get it on Radio Please!
This isn’t the first time criminal minds used one of your songs, they used one of your songs a couple years back. I only knew this because I honestly didn’t remember subscribing to you, so then I looked at your videos and saw what have I done, and instantly remembered you. Your voice is still amazing, and I hope to hear more from you! I now hit the notification bell so I’ll definitely won’t be missing any of your uploads!
God no. He's better than that trash. It's not necessarily the stepping stone you think it will be. I struggle to remember most of the contestants names. Even the ones u think will have HUGE careers have vanished into oblivion...
What grabs me the most in everything Taps touches is the sheer emotion he puts into everything. The incredible unfaultering range just holds you in the song from beginning to end. You cannot forget him it's that simple!
I’m now on season 14 and have watched all of the previous seasons of CM, and this is the first song that have caught my attention. That voice, and those lyrics!😭
Very beautiful song first heard it on a criminal minds episode and didnt think about it till the next time I saw the same episode now I have it in my playlist thank you for writing such a beautiful song
Listening to this again now a couple years later, I'm really hearing this message in a whole different way. This song is exactly how I felt ending my relationship with my drug of choice. Wow
Heard this on criminal minds show and went to UA-cam to find the whole song. It's a beautiful song that's cute deep to the mind, thoughts and memories of those that have truly become sober. Thank you for sharing!!! ❤
I think this is the first time ever for me that I heard a song on TV and fell in love with it right away. Now that I found out about you I listens to your covers and songs every day.

This song is so powerful! Thanks Criminal Mind for playing it, because I don’t think I would have ever heard it otherwise...Beautiful!

I heard this on one of episode of criminal minds, and your voice took me too places that I can’t explain.
Criminal Minds fault for not putting your name at the end of the show, because I couldn't find it
all you have to do its put in the song and it will show you... not bye the name
I watched it through Prime Video and I found the title through the trivia thing

Yes,like Criminal Minds☺️
One of his other songs (What have I done) was on the show at 10x05 :)
Beautiful song... Criminal minds brought me as well.. Love this.. ❤
Heard this on criminal minds!!! I can feel the pain in your voice. Absolutely amazing!!
I don't care what anyone says... This guy deserves more recognition.!
When you hold me
You can't even see the pain my face is hidin'
You don't even know how much my heart is breakin'
Cause you don't seem to care at all
When you touch me
You don't even feel the love I give is dyin'
And nothin' that you do is satisfyin'
But I did my best to love you anyway
But now that it's over and I'm sober
This hurt that I feel is so real
Don't you get closer
I get colder, the longer you hold me near
When you kiss me
You can't even tell my lips don't even want you
Sad as this may be but, this is what you do
You win my love and you steal my heart
But now that it's over and I'm sober
This hurt that I feel is so real
Don't you get closer
I get colder, the longer you hold me near
I wanted you to be the one
Tasted your love and now it's done
And you led me on
And I followed you
You're my drug of choice
What could I do
But now that it's over and I'm sober
This hurt that I feel is so real
Don't you get closer
I get colder, the longer you hold me near
Now that it's over and I'm sober
This hurt that I feel is so real
Don't you get closer
I get colder, the longer you hold me near
Thank you!!!
No problem
youre a blessing

CHALLENGE....WHO WANTS TO SEE TAPS IN XFACTOR OR BRITISH GOT TALENT 2019? DUDE IS TALENTED.
God no. He's better than that trash. It's not necessarily the stepping stone you think it will be. I struggle to remember most of the contestants names. Even the ones u think will have HUGE careers have vanished into oblivion...
So simple and so beautifully emotional at the same time! Taps, you are a gift to a music world!
Such a powerful song from such an incredible voice! I’m shook 😭
What grabs me the most in everything Taps touches is the sheer emotion he puts into everything. The incredible unfaultering range just holds you in the song from beginning to end. You cannot forget him it's that simple!
Loving every note you sing
