Clearly this about a guy who lived a life of depression, who fell in love with the idea of death. After he attempted suicide, he was stuck in a coma, he (in his incapacitated state) was sought out by the angel of death that he had long dreamed of. Yet due to his feeling trapped in depression, he felt chained down by his feelings. And in the end he finally got what he wanted as death reached him, and he said with a tear good-bye to the earth, as the Angel of death kissed him and took his hand.
+lonelycatz 666 it's because of Jordan and his Snapchats that I discovered Saywecanfly last summer. I'm glad I checked out his set and bought the Between the Roses (deluxe edition) at Warped!
+Halle Mae (naijynx) mee to i saw them with my other favorite bands on the fight for something, i mainly wanted to see set it off, and ta, but i was happy that i got to see saywecanfly and the ready set
randomly discovered this track on Spotify. A very beatiful song. I can picture this song playing as the credits roll at the end of the saddest movie ever made.
I think the black eyes represented depression and how he was depressed and she tried to save him with love but it was just too late and with the loss of him she became depressed too. This could be a secret message to don't suicide because of how much it will hurt the people around you? Potentially. But anyway anyone interprets it it's still a beautiful song.
My favorite part about the video was that you could see just how much Leda loves him. Like look at her eyes. I've never seen her have so much love for anyone. Yes, even Nate.
Seeing Braden in chains moved me. To me it means that someone so loved and strong has a vulnerable side. Even he has downfalls so bad that someone else had to save him. It means you don't always have to save yourself. Don't be afraid to show your vulnerable side. Beautiful message.
This is absolutely amazing I'm in tears. This song is so sad it makes me cry every time I listen to it, and now having a music video in addition, plus Leda my angel... It's almost too much to bare in the best way possible. I love you both you're amazing and I'm so happy I got to meet the both of you. I wish I got a picture with Braden as well. But the moment itself was special. Keep going, you're so incredibly talented and so is Leda. I hope you both stay together for a very very long time.
Braden performed this song at my venue, The Radioactive Events Center in Kittanning, Pa. . When he started singing. I turned on these new Meteor Christmas lights. It looked as if tears were falling from the skies. It was a beautiful scene with a beautiful song. Thank you!
im in tears this song was so heart touching. thank you so much Braden for being the amazing person you are. you've help me and so many other people through a lot. ✨
You're music is... otherworldly, it's a part of my everyday life now. Thank you for singing the words in all your music that we all needed to hear when nobody else was here to say them.
I watched your video about having a good true cry.... thank you. I have had such a diffcult time with just letting go. My father has been dead for many years and there is so much I have left to say to him, and I can only hope he hears me when I silently do talk with him. Your music touches the soul man. Thank you
I've been waiting for this video to come out! I seen it on Facebook, and said finally! So I listened to it... and I thought wow this song is truly amazing! Keep doing what you do Braden! We all love your voice and you!
You know sometimes in life you think that nobody around understands or can comprehend how or what you feel, but when i listen to this song i know that there is someone out there who feels like i do. Thank you for that.
A friend of mine showed me this song yesterday, after she went home I must have watched this clip 30 times. It is such a powerful and emotional song/film and as a writer/filmmaker I can truly appreciate the masterpiece that you have made. This needs more recognition than it has. To bring someone to tears is not an easy task, but you my friend made me cry a river. Thank you.
To me this song is about someone losing a partner and then being freed from their grief and the struggle of living (symbolised by the chains) and getting their heart back through death because they meet their love again. The idea of the skeleton symbolises how empty he is of feelings without his partner who symbolically gives him back his heart by drawing it on hi chest
Nada melhor que o tempo... Lembrei que antes ouvia essas músicas com uma intensa tristeza. Hoje em dia dar uma nostagia. E pense em como foi bom voltar aqui ❤🥺
essa música marcou uma época muito difícil da minha vida em 2016, é estranho voltar aqui depois de tanto tempo, mas fico feliz que ainda esteja por aí fazendo música.
THIS. IS. PURE. ART!!!!!!! This is seriously amazing; the song and the video are wow, just wow! I can't even describe how much I loved this haha. It's seriously amazing Braden, you're amazing! (And where can I buy those black angel wings!? I need them! :D)
Beautiful video, Braden!! I wanted to thank you. At age eight, I was diagnosed with a social anxiety called Selective Mutism. In certain situations, I am unable to speak due to vocal cord paralysis. I have worked hard my whole life to find my voice. I am 19 now, still trying to find that voice of mine. Sometimes I don't know if I can keep going, but you inspire me to go on. Thank you for being an inspiration. Thank you for being one of my heroes. Thank you for everything.
I'm proud of you for fighting for all you've been through. Please remember that you can ALWAYS keep going, you just need the right motivation. Music is the right thing for me and hopefully you can help you too. Don't EVER say you can't keep going, because I know you can. A strong and beautiful person like you can definitely find your voice. Remember, even the quietest person can have the loudest voice.
OMG.. this is the best song ever... idk why I love it bc it showing... someone you love can easily get directed by the power of a mind... and save someone they love
I've got skin and I've got bones Built to hold your body close Built to shell a driftwood heart Made out of stone Trace my tongue along your hips Planting flowers with my lips Carving hearts inside your palms With empty fingertips But I'm feeling so alone Wishing you would just come home Because it's getting dark And all I have is time And time may be the death of me But time will never get the best of us With a tear I say goodbye And watch the moonlight Leave your eyes Kiss me dear One more time Take my hand And hold it tight Broken stitches in your back Where your wings were once attached And the devil in your veins To keep you company Lay your skull across my chest Burn your flesh into my flesh Painting raindrops with your blood Until it's all been bled But you're feeling so alone And wishing I would just come home Cause it's getting dark And all you have is time And time may be the death of you But time will never get the best of us With a tear I say goodbye And watch the moonlight Leave your eyes Kiss me dear One more time Take my hand And hold it tight Oh what a tangled web we weave With our lustful bursting at the seams This driftwood heart is only yours But I'm drifting from the shore And with a tear I say goodbye And watch the moonlight Leave your eyes With a tear I say goodbye And watch the moonlight Leave your eyes Kiss me dear One more time Take my hand And hold it tight
I've repeated this about 1000 times this month. and I love it so much, it helped me through lots of things, and helped me find people. thank you so much for creating this beautiful piece of art.
My best friend has always been a huge fan. She's told me a million times how much you've helped her, and I was with her at Warped Tour. She met you and had you sign some stuff, and I watched you perform. Though I'm into mostly heavier stuff, I really do love you. Branden, you're voice is simply flawless, and I've been listening since I saw you. Thank you for helping me and my friend. Keep up the good work, have a good night, and stay strong!
...my girfriend left me yeasterday, and lisening to "and with a tear i say good by and watch the moonlight leave your eyes"... well, i cryed. another awesome song by saywecanfly. you are fantastic...!
This is so sad, but so beautiful at the same time. I don't usually cry when watching music videos, but this one brought me to tears. Your music and art is certainly unique.
I was a big fan back then. After some years I found your channel again by luck. Immediately I went to playlists to search for this song. You have a beautiful voice ❤
I remember when this song came out. I saw it as an ad on facebook and it was the first song I heard from say we can fly and it found me at a really tough time of loneliness and depression. I have fell in love with your music over and over again every time I listened from then till now and it kept me sane and alive. Some things are just meant to be. Thank you Braden
Clearly this about a guy who lived a life of depression, who fell in love with the idea of death.

randomly discovered this track on Spotify. A very beatiful song. I can picture this song playing as the credits roll at the end of the saddest movie ever made.
My interpretation......"obviously Leda is the angel that loves you Braden
I was a little confused by the video, trying to figure out what it meant, but this made it so much clearer! 😊 thanks!
Ashleigh Weir your welcome LUv

This song is so beautiful 🖤 We can all learn a lot from this song, time is way too short
Your songs always get to the deep part of me that overthinks and has anxiety. But honestly I don't even mind because of how great your voice is
This is absolutely amazing I'm in tears. This song is so sad it makes me cry every time I listen to it, and now having a music video in addition, plus Leda my angel...

Beautiful composition of everything. The music and imagery flowed seamlessly 💜

+Kyrie O'Donnell Wuht cx
Didn't think I'd like this after all this time & I ended up getting goosebumps. Love Leda sm & this
I've got skin and I've got bones
Built to hold your body close
Built to shell a driftwood heart
Made out of stone
Trace my tongue along your hips
Planting flowers with my lips
Carving hearts inside your palms
With empty fingertips
But I'm feeling so alone
Wishing you would just come home
Because it's getting dark
And all I have is time
And time may be the death of me
But time will never get the best of us
With a tear
I say goodbye
And watch the moonlight
Leave your eyes
Kiss me dear
One more time
Take my hand
And hold it tight
Broken stitches in your back
Where your wings were once attached
And the devil in your veins
To keep you company
Lay your skull across my chest
Burn your flesh into my flesh
Painting raindrops with your blood
Until it's all been bled
But you're feeling so alone
And wishing I would just come home
Cause it's getting dark
And all you have is time
And time may be the death of you
But time will never get the best of us
With a tear
I say goodbye
And watch the moonlight
Leave your eyes
Kiss me dear
One more time
Take my hand
And hold it tight
Oh what a tangled web we weave
With our lustful bursting at the seams
This driftwood heart is only yours
But I'm drifting from the shore
And with a tear
I say goodbye
And watch the moonlight
Leave your eyes
With a tear
I say goodbye
And watch the moonlight
Leave your eyes
Kiss me dear
One more time
Take my hand
And hold it tight
Oh my god I can’t get enough of your music, old new, holy hell why didn’t sky tell me about you sooner.
crying in 2024. anyone else?
Yess😭🙏
I've repeated this about 1000 times this month. and I love it so much, it helped me through lots of things, and helped me find people. thank you so much for creating this beautiful piece of art.

She met you and had you sign some stuff, and I watched you perform. Though I'm into mostly heavier stuff, I really do love you. Branden, you're voice is simply flawless, and I've been listening since I saw you. Thank you for helping me and my friend. Keep up the good work, have a good night, and stay strong!

Es mi favorita y otra
pam schmitt 7w7 lo mejor que me ah pasado
Such a masterpiece 😢 You're always going to be the King Of Love Songs 👑 Stay Cozy
This makes me feel he was cursed and only she could free him
From the on going agony he was in
And a bit of Romeo and Juliet theme ha
She was his love but also his poison
I think it is about depression. She saved him from dying, but at the end he dragged her to depression
THIS IS SO PURE
♡♡
