My son turned me onto these guys. I truly hate that I am 57 years old and just now found em. I've heard my son play and sing this at home too and it always brings me to tears. Thanks Adam Strong!
Everybody who thinks Diary of Jane is Breaking Benjamin's only song where the acoustic version is comparable to or better than the original hasn't heard this.
This song still makes me cry.. I lost my brother in 2011.. it was the last song my friend and I showed him. Even got the words tattooed on me. Always visit this song to remember my brother Jonathan. Love yall hope you find peace like I hope to
im a grown man and this song always makes me cry from the loss of my grandad my dad and my best friend.... i wish they were still here, but doesnt everyone?
This is truly one of the best songs ever written. Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Seether, Disturbed, Mudvayne, Alice in Chains all deserve to be in the hall of fame.
Alex Woodward Anywhere round the globe sitting behind a screen you can write anything what you want brother... but you know everybody knows the truth or the reality...So i don't even need to prove my point any further...Who is the best...😌😌
sunny 328 chester is one of the best singers of all time , he can't be replaced or be forgotten , i think there are only few people who can do that 17 seconds screaming of GIVEN UP very clear or put so much feelings in their songs like THE MESSENGER or ONE MORE LIGHT , R.I.P legend

Breaking Benjamin is an Angel watching over us with the music he creates. He can help you and everyone else that needs a way to escape the realities of the world.
First, Three Days Grace's "World So Cold" piano version, and now this?! How am I JUST finding these absolute gems and masterpieces when Three Days Grace and Breaking Benjamin were literally the first two bands I EVER got into in my life?!
My best friend passed away unexpectedly 2 months ago at the age of 35. She turned me on to these guys & Shinedown. When I listen to this song, I feel like I’m singing it to her and asking her for a sign that she’s ok.
My ALL-TIME favorite band... I'll never stop liking Ben and his band. Truly an amazing composition of sound, vocals, and melody. It makes me feel good deep inside everytime I hear this song! EPIC!
This song makes me think of my dad sadly he’s no longer with me died in late 2019 from a brain tumor but every time I hear this I want to cry my dad liked rock music and breaking Benjamin
I'm really late commenting on this, but I remember listening to this song when it first released and when I listened to the song I just thought it was just a generic sad song...until I lost my dad. I remember one night about 4 years ago, I was just browsing through music on youtube and stumbled upon this particular song that I hadn't listened to in years and it brought up those memories of losing my dad and the pain and emptiness it had left. I normally do not cry on songs, but as I sat and listened to it...I had to put it back on repeat. Such a deep song that I hold very special to me
Saw them in concert a few months back for the first time with Three Days Grace and Chevelle... WOW what a show! Ben Burnley is just phenomenal and they are incredible live! They've been my favorite alternative rock band for a LONG time. Three Days Grace rocked the house down as well and Chevelle sounded exactly the same live... another band I absolutely love. Killer show!
Any of you feel like you aren't really here anymore after losing someone. The bond so powerful that a large portion of you never made it back. I feel like I'm watching someone else when I interact with people. Weird.
When your outcast friends stop being outcasts with you, and an inexplicable kind of toxic cocktail of emotions starts to choke you, a weird mixture of relief that they made it their way, but at the same time, you're still there, in the same place, left behind...and you begin to search for reasons why, why are YOU always alone? That, that is what I feel through this amazing piece of art.
This is the realest thing I've ever read....I suffer from depression and my best friend is moving across the continent and to another country so this is exactly how I'm feeling ....
I couldn't help but cry listening to this. You could literally hear the pain in his voice... this song is... I can't. For the first time in my life, I... can't.
I thought he said "Your tears are adding to the Flood" but either way, beautiful song. Didn't know there was an acoustic version like this, that's super rad! Thanks for the upload :3
I think he maybe hinting at God, Jesus, and getting saved. The something being buried in the words, is perhaps the Bible. He’s lost and is trying to find his path back to Jesus. Just an opinion. ❤️
I hope that everyone here is okay. Please be safe and remember that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. If you are feeling troubled, maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. I wish you all the best.
I found this accidentally... I love it.. The meaning so surreal.. It's so deep... This is the type of music I live for ^^ This is the type of music that should be played on the radio.
"When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it. And I had love, but I did not feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. And now, the twilight of my life, this understanding has passed into contentment."
I seem to only grow attracted to bands who's singer has a very distinct voice like ben's also the singer from a death metal band "The faceless" who's clean voice sounds like an angel
Wow, this is so moving. I would really, really love to hear new stuff from these guys :(. I know the band's broken up but man, it's a real bummer to see such talent gone so soon.
I could hear this song over and over I Love it so much❤️ can't wait to hear it Live again in July Thanks Ben for this beautiful song and BB band makes it even more Amazing appreciate good music. Thank you Primo for sending me signs and for having Angels protect me Sending Love Blessings and Prayers to everyone who reads this.. ♥️🙏🎤🎶🤩🤟👩🏻🎤💜🧤🎸🎧
I love this version of the song! Well, it's hard to choose between the original version and this one! They both make me feel strong emotions... Breaking Benjamin
there's just one way: to go ahead because we humans usually have an inner strenght far bigger than we could never thought. Love moves the world and makes you move on :)
It's crazy how this song can relate to religion. I mean I'm not really religious myself but if you take the lyrics and examine them very carefully it makes sense that he's talking to god and to his faith in him. True Story. It's much more beautiful if you take it that way :)
+L0nyxl God* the lower case g in god is used when your talking about an idol while the capitol G in God means your talking to God himself, God as the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit
i love you grandma. i listen to this for you, and i hope you know when i sing it with tears, im singing for what i lost. and thats you. ill sing this till im with you, and ill sing this with you.
This song is made for being an acoustic song, nothing can put doubt on this, the alternative metal version is beautiful but this makes me feel in a sensation that no songs give to me 🖤
1st time hearing this song since at least 2013. Lost my cousin in 2012 n breaking Benjamin was one of only a few bands I listened to in my hardest hours n this song was always the main one that hurt to listen to. UA-cam randomly plays this song 5 years later n it took about 30 seconds for me to lose it for the 1st time in a long ass time. Miss the fuck out of you Chris you were the only cousin I had to look up to at the time
I listened to this song while RP-ing with one of my friends. The main character had to make a choice whether to kill a guy who's his enemy-that he really loves-or let him live. He was really struggling when his enemy made the decision for him. His enemy walked right into his sword.
My son turned me onto these guys. I truly hate that I am 57 years old and just now found em. I've heard my son play and sing this at home too and it always brings me to tears. Thanks Adam Strong!
Sheree Fox I'll be 53 next month and my son introduced their music to me. never too late or too old to love bb!!
LAYNEontheBRAIN honestly you don’t look bad for being 50
More power to you!
@@LAYNEontheBRAIN and you!
Blessings
The sound of pure pain, confusion and agony. The sound of humanity.
hey
Sup
Everybody who thinks Diary of Jane is Breaking Benjamin's only song where the acoustic version is comparable to or better than the original hasn't heard this.
i love Benjamin's voice i think he's a beautiful male singer he's amazing i love your profile name by the way
*+HeliosKitty
HeliosKitty Without You is also almost better than the original, just sayin hahaha
AMEN
HeliosKitty or any acoustic from Breaking Benjamin
Doesnt matter how I feel or how im doing the "God help me I've come undone out of the light of the sun " part kills me and I cry every time
Same here. Sometimes it just hits harder.
It's pure humanity.
Karna of Mahabharata
Me to. I'm crying now!! Before I even read your comment! Now that's a true gift & a great talent!!! What a voice & delievery!!💜 ☯
This is one of the very few BB songs that I think was MEANT to be acoustic. I love the original as well, but think this is slightly better.
monkoo20 Totally agree, BB is life !!!
+monkoo20 it's just based on taste actually
+Eric W well of course all music is
Both are great, but the original is better imo.
BB has done acoustic versions of all their songs
This song still makes me cry.. I lost my brother in 2011.. it was the last song my friend and I showed him. Even got the words tattooed on me. Always visit this song to remember my brother Jonathan. Love yall hope you find peace like I hope to
Ditto man my bro was 2 years older than me Adam we will see them again....until then
god bless him, stay safe.
im a grown man and this song always makes me cry from the loss of my grandad my dad and my best friend.... i wish they were still here, but doesnt everyone?
I'm sorry for your loss! Lost my Granddaddy 2 years ago and not a day goes by that I don't think of him.
I just lost a best friend of mine today, just found this song and the scars do remain forever ❤️
You will meet again my friend. This life is just a waiting room.
Same.
love the originals but I think the acoustics they do are absolutely perfection
Chris Wise same
This is truly one of the best songs ever written. Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Seether, Disturbed, Mudvayne, Alice in Chains all deserve to be in the hall of fame.
This is what we call real music.
Thank you. Please help me.
I can't think of any better voice than Benjamin Burnley
Zachary Costroff Late chester bennington may be...He can really hit those high notes very clearly...

Dead star shine
Light up the sky
I'm all out of breath
My walls are closing in
Days go by
Give me a sign
Come back to the end
The shepherd of the damned
I can feel you falling away
No longer the lost
No longer the same
And I can see you starting to break
I'll keep you alive
If you show me the way
Forever and ever
The scars will remain
I'm falling apart
Leave me here forever in the dark
Daylight dies
Blackout the sky
Does anyone care?
Is anybody there?
Take this life
Empty inside
I'm already dead
I'll rise to fall again
I can feel you falling away
No longer the lost
No longer the same
And I can see you starting to break
I'll keep you alive
If you show me the way
Forever - and ever
The scars will remain
I'm falling apart
Leave me here forever in the dark
God help me I've come undone
Out of the light of the sun
God help me I've come undone
Out of the light of the sun
I can feel you falling away
No longer the lost
No longer the same
And I can see you starting to break
I'll keep you alive
If you show me the way
Forever and ever
The scars will remain
Give me a sign
There's something buried in the words
Give me a sign
Your tears are adding to the flood
Just give me a sign
There's something buried in the words
Give me a sign
Your tears are adding to the flood
Just give me a sign
There's something buried in the words
Give me a sign
Your tears are adding to the flood
Forever and ever
The scars will remain
Legend
Deep!!!💯 Holding on trying to pull out of the darkness of your mind and emotions. Give me a sign!!?💕💕💕❤️❤️
Breaking Benjamin is an Angel watching over us with the music he creates. He can help you and everyone else that needs a way to escape the realities of the world.
For everyone that knows, and for those who are just learning:
This is how music should always make you feel.
You are loved.
God bless you
I hope so.
this was one of my girls favorite song ,, every time I hear it I tear up... Rip Babygirl , you were the only one who could get through to me.
Jay Moore stay strong
Stay strong brother. It makes me remember. Not always bad.
Damn bro sending love no homo
that song gives me a lot of memories, and the feeling of the voice is such amazing, I'm going to cry on my room.
did you lose someone important in your life?
I felt that
Such a good song wow. So catchy can't get this out of my head
+Patrick McCarty his voice does a wonderful job making me happy
+LoneWolf Moon I know right
This tears me up, so beautiful and pure
I agree
First, Three Days Grace's "World So Cold" piano version, and now this?! How am I JUST finding these absolute gems and masterpieces when Three Days Grace and Breaking Benjamin were literally the first two bands I EVER got into in my life?!
There so much I could turn you on to
Found this band exactly when I needed them.
I listened to this song so many times when my mother died from cancer. It's a good one.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending prayers 🙏. I lost my Mom too. in 2018. Lost my dad in 1992.
I used to listen to BB when I was a teenager... I’m now almost 29 and here I am!
My best friend passed away unexpectedly 2 months ago at the age of 35. She turned me on to these guys & Shinedown. When I listen to this song, I feel like I’m singing it to her and asking her for a sign that she’s ok.
2:29 . This is one of the best melodies ever written.
My ALL-TIME favorite band... I'll never stop liking Ben and his band. Truly an amazing composition of sound, vocals, and melody. It makes me feel good deep inside everytime I hear this song! EPIC!
this song was made to be acoustic
Kylo Ren yep
yep
This song makes me think of my dad sadly he’s no longer with me died in late 2019 from a brain tumor but every time I hear this I want to cry my dad liked rock music and breaking Benjamin

It is
whoever made this video got it wrong.
I think this song has a deep hidden meaning
"There's something buried in the words"
yes all he's music have a very wonderful meaning to it. most of them is really dad.
BB's music strikes me as being mostly interior monologue (I mean that in a good way)
@@ShaDHP23 definitely man. Their whole "schpeel" if you will, is about what's BREAKING Benjamin
@@kristiannelson2168 exactly!
I think he maybe hinting at God, Jesus, and getting saved. The something being buried in the words, is perhaps the Bible. He’s lost and is trying to find his path back to Jesus. Just an opinion. ❤️
I sang this to my cat. She started purring. Moral of the story? My cat has good taste in music.
I hope that everyone here is okay. Please be safe and remember that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. If you are feeling troubled, maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. I wish you all the best.

Hits home
I found this accidentally...
I love it.. The meaning so surreal..
It's so deep... This is the type of music I live for ^^
This is the type of music that should be played on the radio.
This is the Really the best acoustic version of a song...I have ever heard...in my life...I cant stop crying when he sings "Give me a sign"
Listen to Without You acoustic.
"When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it. And I had love, but I did not feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. And now, the twilight of my life, this understanding has passed into contentment."

What about M shadows from A7X?
No,The backup vocalist/guitarist Aaron is the lead vocalist of The Faceless.
Wow, this is so moving. I would really, really love to hear new stuff from these guys :(. I know the band's broken up but man, it's a real bummer to see such talent gone so soon.
They're back, man! It's true!
They're back!
Yes!
*It's true, they really are back*

This almost makes me cry. It is so beautiful.
Better than the original

RIP to my soul every time I hear this...
This still song makes me cry after all these years
I CLD USE A SIGN RIGHT NOW FROM MY DEARLY DEPARTED!!! R.I.P. 💜 U BOTH W/ ALL THAT I AM!! 💜 ☯
In one word.... This is a Masterpiece...
there's just one way: to go ahead because we humans usually have an inner strenght far bigger than we could never thought. Love moves the world and makes you move on :)
I wasn't too impressed with the original version but when I heard it in acustic I feel his music so deeply. Just awsome
Not sure how you can like this version but not the original.
leave me here forever in the dark :')
Is anybody there? July 2019!
Nah August. Not getting my like though.
Here
always and till the end

@Garrett Shook My name is magnificent muahahahah
Jkjk though
Sadly sarcasm can't be translated well in text ://////
mas de 10 años y recién escucho esta genialidad !!! hermosa versión en acústico que me toca oír en 2021
Magical acoustic rendition!
Pow que show minha banda favorita!
BREAKING BENJAMIN BRASIL!!!
Honestly, It's like I feel his emotion and his words when he sings to acoustics. I just love it
magic.... pure magic
2019 and still in love with song since it was released ❤️
Soy el unico que habla español y le encanta esto ?
No
Nah
No.
Nunca vas a ser el único. XD
forever & ever the scars will remain....
So beautiful, I'm speechless
Seeing Breaking Benjamin play tomorrow at De Lago casino. They're performing most songs in acoustic. Can't wait!
This song is what got me hooked to Breaking Benjamin, on the radio, i ow it to the radio for this fucking awesome music, thank you 96.1 lol
Unsubscribe to youtube for putting a dislike button on this music
GUYS BREAKING BENJAMIN IS GOING TO CONTINUE. IT'S TIME TO LIVE AGAIN!
It's crazy how this song can relate to religion.
I mean I'm not really religious myself but if you take the lyrics and examine them very carefully it makes sense that he's talking to god and to his faith in him.
True Story.
It's much more beautiful if you take it that way :)
I can hear it now
"The Shepard of the damned," "I can feel you falling away," "The scars will remain," yep, pretty much God.
+L0nyxl God* the lower case g in god is used when your talking about an idol while the capitol G in God means your talking to God himself, God as the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit
that's not judging God said, Thou Shall not have any other idols before me aka gods
If it's wrong to point out to people that God and god or gods is wrong then your just combining the two as if their the same, when their not!
Always loved there song so cold. Until now never new who sung it. Breaking Benjamin rock!!
hey! DONT FORGET ABOUT THE ORGINAL!!! ITS MY THIRD FAVORITE BB SONG!
This version is amazing though lol!
Kait allivad I know! its beautiful! However, you shouldn't forget about the original masterpiece. (:
This one is great but the original imo is really good too
+Brandough Crox What's the first?
***** My list has changed since I left this comment. It's "forever" though, and it's always gonna be that.
if u have Headphones.. And put the volume to 100%.. U Can see your eyes is goin to blow your mind with that high voice, Damn Ben
Perfect song to
Sum up depression and darkness love Breakokg Benjamin
I love how he sounds basically exactly the same! It just proves he is an amazingly talented singer!
also one month and half ago died my 4 days old daughter and can understand your pain and why this make us cry. Rest both of them in peace
Your tears are adding to the FLOOD.
I'm not crying......Erin is it?
i love you grandma. i listen to this for you, and i hope you know when i sing it with tears, im singing for what i lost. and thats you. ill sing this till im with you, and ill sing this with you.
This song is made for being an acoustic song, nothing can put doubt on this, the alternative metal version is beautiful but this makes me feel in a sensation that no songs give to me 🖤
I just love this song too much.
1st time hearing this song since at least 2013. Lost my cousin in 2012 n breaking Benjamin was one of only a few bands I listened to in my hardest hours n this song was always the main one that hurt to listen to. UA-cam randomly plays this song 5 years later n it took about 30 seconds for me to lose it for the 1st time in a long ass time. Miss the fuck out of you Chris you were the only cousin I had to look up to at the time
He is watching on you like the star in the sky.
god bless you ... god bless you .. :) this song touch.d my soul ..
this song is so beautiful!!!
Hey guys. My favorite band!! ROCK ON
So glad I found this!👍🏻
The memories we have will last forever.
very nice. I love them acoustic.
" just give me a sign "
Sign
AMEN
bb is great..love this voice..i've got goosebumps all over me...
I listened to this song while RP-ing with one of my friends. The main character had to make a choice whether to kill a guy who's his enemy-that he really loves-or let him live. He was really struggling when his enemy made the decision for him. His enemy walked right into his sword.
"God help me I've come undone--under the light of the sun. Give me a sign."
I could listen Breaking Benjamin "forever. and ever." Especially the acoustic versions
Love this song.
One of the most emotion - filled recordings of an acoustic cover... better than the original for sure.
