LYRICS
Take a long hard look at yourself
How did you end up here
The blood drips like red inverted balloons
Tomorrow is a promise to no-one
If you want, follow me and I'll lead you inside
You don't have to run and hide
Eleanor, Eleanor
I would do anything for another minute with you because
It's not getting easier, it's not getting easier
In a bedroom with no windows or doors
All the happy people are crying
You can't hold a gaze for a second or two
It always ends in total darkness
Eleanor, Eleanor
I would do anything for another minute with you because
It's not getting easier, it's not getting easier
You will be folding stars
You can't ever understand
It's not getting easier, it's not getting easier
It ends in a place with no love only hate
And a mirror reflecting the truth
In your eyes, in your face you can't wash it away
From your cold, cold heart
I hope that you're folding stars
Today is my brother's 12th birthday. But for the past 12 years I haven't celebrated any of his birthdays with him. Not even six weeks after he was born he was taken from me, and from my family. My little angel, just gone. Four years ago when I first heard this song, all I could think about was my little brother. "I would do anything for another minute with you, it's not getting easier, it's not getting easier. I hope that you're folding stars." And I really hope he is. I love you Lachlan ♡♡♡
Aw god bless ye!
🙏🌌🌌
For anyone playing this who is mourning the death of a loved one, you never stop missing them , but you learn to cope better. They will always live on in you x
lost my mother when I was 20.. now very close to 42.. I now have lived longer than she had that chance to... with that loss,, has given me so much more strength, to push forward.. my only real thing is.. everything good in my life happened, After she had passed.. not having the option of sharing my son with her.. at times. (cliché) all these people around. never felt so alone
"The reason I'm so upset is because I was away playing shows when, if I had been at home doing a normal job, I could have been here and I could have helped. Because we were travelling and it was so out of the blue, I couldn't even get back to say goodbye..." - Simon Neil on his mother's death - 2007
Those feels man.
Absolutely she would be proud. You are a star Simon
My favourite Biffy song. R.I.P My good friend Eleanor. Hope your up there folding stars. Beautiful x
when u take into account that he wrote this song about his mother who died it makes it even more epic,feel for him,up the biffy
Wow
I understand now
I think it's pronounced " 'mon the biff " in their native tongue.
Weirdly it is mon the biffy but people just say mon the biff for no real reason
Hollie 1234 mon is Scottish slang it's like saying come on the biffy
One of the most beautiful songs you'll ever hear.Needs waaaaaaay more views.
This is the best song ever written
ROB KELLAS - VLOGS AND SH!T KELLAS!
Don't be daft!....its ok
🖤
man like kellas
sir, you are correct.
I find it beautiful how this is about his mum ☺
i lost my mum 5 weeks ago and this song means soo much to me, i got the lyrics tattooed on my side and everyday i think of what Simon went through and can relate. to everyone with both their parents and family, please embrace and cherish every moment together . . . . love u mum
By far the best biffy song ?? i certainly think so
My son has put me on to this group. Even at my age -60 - I am impressed. Mike saw themlive not so long ago in USA somewhere. I thnk he was on cloud 9. Good one guys. nice sound. I can also relate to the lyrics.
thumbs up, this is real music. This is the meaning of song writing. The meaning of music. Hail the buffy!
I really don`t know why there songs do not have more views??? There just amazing.
Because they dont sing about drinking,partying and doing drugs. Its kind of sad when you think of it
It doesnt matter. As long as theyre there im happy.

*their and *they're. Muppet.
ELEANORRRR!!!!
I'm addicted to this song it's just incredible and so are The Biff
This song has helped me through a lot of hard times, It helped me realise I needed to move in with my Dad because i'd reached a whole new low.
So thank you Biffy Clyro , this is such a beautiful song
He wrote it about his mother after she passed away, and I agree, the song has so much more meaning when you know what it's about.
needs more recognition, incredible song
I wish I could have written such a beautiful Song about my gorgeous mum. It gets easier but you never stop feeling sad
so true, it changes and shifts.....never goes :(
Thats how i feel about my recently passed mum, missed every day, if i only had another day RIP mum loved always
this song gives me goosebumps everywhere! love it so much! love biffy clyro
Simons mother will be remembered through all of us dedicated fans :'), the album only took around a week to write and its the best they created...... MON THE BIFF
Its true, Scotland is massively overlooked due to the amount of people in England. Scotland is a beautiful country, with some amazing mountains.
that "Eleanor" hits different when it's backing "you will be folding stars"
Mon the biff!
I cannot describe how much I LOVE this dudes!!! ;-))))))))))
Seeing it live has reduced me to tears 😭
As soon as this song plays, the pain sets in🖤 a beautiful song .
I'll admit that the first time I heard this, after reading what it was about, I cried.
That's Painshill Park in Cobham, Surrey if anyone was wondering.
Oh my, this song actually gives me goosebumps. I LOVE YOU BIFFY!
how has this only got 30 odd thousand views!, this is one of the greatest songs in history !
When the song came out, i loved it for a very long time
the composition, build up, harmony and singing was just perfect...
One of Biffy clyro's best songs till date.
Memories.
Tomorrow is a promise to no one
I cant believe this only has 95000 views!
Love this song. I know where Simon is coming from. That apart, absolutely fabulous song.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
This is my favourite Biffy song 😁
Lyndsey Clarke o
This and manics ocean spray fantastic songs
I cry every time I hear this, I need my Granda back.
I don't know why but the more depressing biffy songs tend to be my favourites. You got this, opposites (which is by far my fav biffy song), machines, people, medicine, many of horror etc. There just tends to be a lot of raw emotion that goes into these kinds of biffy songs and to say the least. I fucking love that
They have more emotion put into them, it's why some artists produce their best materials after a loss, because it gives them so much to work with.
Hey look! Its Simon Christ.
I love this song. It's beautiful.
One of my favourite songs ever, not just from Biffy.
Still as powerful and heart-wrenching as it was when I first heard it back in 2007. I miss you, Ash.
The first time i heard this today, what a brilliantly written song
Just a beautiful piece of music and a perfect tribute!
One of the best songs ever!
this and machines... the feels man, so much emotion.
I can't get enough of them !!
I watched Bffy Clyro perform this 3 nights ago live and i ended up crying at the concert, it is such a beautifully written song, i love it so much
Thanks
such a meaningful song :((
the 'its not getting easier' s always get me :(
My daughter has lost one brother to SIDS and another was stillborn. She has always referred to them as Folding Stars. She uses this song as her tribute to them.
When the wheater gets colder in autumn, Biffy Clyro's songs are warming me :)
I find it beautiful how this is about his mum :')
I heard this song few days ago, and only thing I said was: WoW!
love this song so much!
this song and its b-sides are some of biffy's best songs imho
MON THE BIFF!!
Biffy Clyro are actually the best band I'd never heard of until the AFL put 'The Captain' on their adverts last year, and now I find three awesome albums came before 'Revolutions'? Dude, I'm never going to get tired of finding these awesome songs. I just heard this and it's already in my top three biffy songs (57 and The ideal height are the others).
i love this song & biffy. ♥
how can 6 peolpe not like this?
My sister .,it says it all .can't believe she's gone ..my world xxx
Such a beautiful song
My nan was called Helena, she was the the most special person I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. She died when i was 17. 14 years ago. It never gets easier, she was loved dearly. And I’ve not been the same since. X
Rest in peace Mrs Neil!!
eleaaaaaanooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
the acoustic version last night was..out of this world!! shivers and goosebumps............mon the biff you were amazing!! :)
Best song ever
this was stunning live :) he stood at the end of the stage and as he sang a ring of lightbulbs on strings came down and he just stood there inside the circle of flickering lightbulbs :) it was absolutely stunning :)
Very beatiful song! I always adore! Do not listen to long ago and today I decided to do it again =)
When this song came out, it was the first time I heard Biffy Clyro.
This is so good.
I can't believe they've scrapped this from their setlist, great song...
Very emotional for Simon, so you can understand why, hopefully saving it for a special occasion like the Readng/Leeds Headline show? ;)
Rest in piece Mrs Neil
When u come back years later with more self understanding and it talks to your soul EVEN MORE
I love this song so much! It's so beautiful =) MON THE BIFF!
GMEX last night with Biffy was AMAZING! Though this was only the fist or second time id heard this song i loved it!!!
Aye for sure mate. Loch Lomond is one of the most beautiful places ive ever been. And the Scottish highlands and the Cairngorm mountains are stunning places to view.
If our summers were just a bit hotter and longer it would be an even more amazing place to stay. Im used to the weather but id love longer summers.
Great!
I remember seeing him perform this for the very last time live (as it was understandably hard for him to keep singing). I had also recently lost my mother to cancer, I didn't even hear the song I just remember understanding the pain in his eyes.
Love this song.
I met Simon and James three days ago. They were incredibly humble and sweet, signing my things and taking pictures with me. Really truly humble. And I waved to Ben on stage and he waved back. Amazing night.
Me: I wanna buy my mom a car.
Biffy: I want 30,000 people screaming my mother's name.
I think I need to reassess my goals.
That changed my life forever.
This band is underrated band too.❣️
My dad died a year tomorrow, i listen to this and refer it to him. Thanks Biff.
this is brilliant live and acoustic
¡¡¡ Temazo !!!
absolute tune
This is good, very good song!!!!
just got "tomorrow is a promise to no one" tattoo'd on me :) means a lot to me this song
This is such a powerful but sad song. It must have been a job to record this so well. "I would do anything for another minute with you, cos, it's not getting easier" hard hitting, sobering lyrics.
Brilliant Song =) Simon sang it beautifully on Tuesday in Nottingham xx
Biffy tweak all the right buttons. Hes such a fantastic song writer....
I'm 26 I lost my mum when I was 10 can confirm it doesn't get easier
My girlfriend just told me to listen to this and now I'm crying.
That's cute
the fact is only has 155,100 views is just mid blowing such an amazing song should be like 10mil!
this song means so much to me, it's ridiculous
