You and me both dude. It was the first Christian band I ever had exposure to I was like 9 or 10 years old and I'm 20 now. Now I listen to a plethora of artists that have blessed me in more ways I can ever hope to imagine. This band changed my life.
"This fight was made for me" is tattooed on the inside of my left arm, taken from this song and a few others to remind me that no part of this is a surprise to God. "But it isn't mine to win" is tattooed on the inside of my right arm, reminding me that I'm not alone in the fight (also referencing the whole "ready the horse for battle" proverb, and my support network). Having Crohn's for 18 years, just uh...I have moments where I have to reaffirm my roots. This song is obviously one such booster, as I thought highly enough of it to ward it on my flesh.
My mate showed me this song 3 days ago and I’ve watched it about 10 times since. Struggling with a divorce, depression and my identity in life as a result. These words speak truth of how much more God has to offer me. Thank you “Close Your Eyes” for this song. Thank you Jesus!
I've been there bud, in fact still not entirely over it yet myself. I hope things have improved for you in the six months since you write this. God bless and have a great day!
Dude. I'm not one to usually say or even think that sort of cheesy shit, but I 100% agree. I've honestly listened to this song at least once a week since it came out and it still gives me goosebumps and gets me out of whatever rut I find myself in.
Accurate. Even when I listen to it now, it reminds me of the goosebumps I've gotten in the past listening to it while it's giving me new goosebumps now... if that makes sense. I've rocked this band for awhile so it a nostalgic song for me.
I tried to take my life 3 times in the span of an hour a few years back. Its cliché to say that a song saved my life, but this song literally saveed my life.
Beyond ARTV thank you for recommending this amazing song. This song came at the perfect time where I’m having doubts about my faith and nothing seems to be going right for me but I just have to remember “how can I forget the joy of the mountaintops down in the valley!”
Honestly, im glad to see that people are still out here listening to this band and song. 12 years later and i feel like im clinging to this song like my life very much depends on it.
I will forever love you Jesus for making this band it's a blessing for the broken and hopeless people in this world to see the light fight in the darkness that there is still hope and people coming back listening to this song
The energy of Shane in this video is unmatched to this day. This is one of the very few artists you can literally SEE how they're feeling the song, how much heart is put into his performance. Very unique... Amazing song and artists.
More than 10 years ago I heard a lot of bands in this style especially Close Your Eyes, at that time I had no idea of my life, the things I was going through had no sense, I felt without purpose, I sang these songs that made me feel very good... however, I didn't understand very well what they meant, today I'm walking with Jesus, with purpose, life and eternal hope, these songs sowed a seed in my heart without knowing it at that time. Thanks! ❤️🙌🏽
I first heard this song in prison, I was in the S.H.U. in Tehachapi, CA. we only had like five channels, one of them being JCTV, which played a half an hour of skate videos and like a half an hour of metal videos every night. This song and one other song by haste the Day to help me change. I've been out since 2013, and I can't tell you how much this music helped..
you want more hardcore Christianity? Check out The Devil Wears Prada, Mortal Treason, Memphis May Fire, With Blood Comes Cleansing, For today, and Underoath.
See thats where you are wrong. I know the devil wears prada, memphis may fire, for today and underoath. ive seen all of them atleast 2 times or more. Instead of assuming and acting like you know everything, educate yourself and ask questions. Save Whitey
LOLZ im sorry but first of all, you dont know me or what i do with my life, second of all, who the hell are you to tell me what i listen to and what i dont listen to?
I WAS STUCK ON ALCOHOL WEED AND THE DOPE BUT JESUS SPOKE TO ME THROUGH HIS LIVING WORD AND HAS SHOWN ME THE TRUTH. THIS BAND SPOKE THE TRUTH OVER ME AS A YOUTH THROUGH THEIR MUSIC AND IM BROUGHT BACK BY GODS GRACE TO ENJOY THIS MESSAGE. REPENT AND BELIEVE HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER COMPREHEND
I was gifted an Alternative Press magazine when I was 14-15 and this album was featured in a 10 up and coming bands section. I listened to this album everyday for like 3 months. A couple years later I went to look them up and had forgotten their name. I 3:25 only had a faint recollection of of the album art. I gave up on trying to find them about a year ago after going as far as looking up the Alternative Press archives and trying to find the issue I was given with no luck. Today, out of sheer coincidence, I was invited to BlueRidge Rockfest and looked up last years lineup only to see this familiar name, looked it up, and I can’t describe the pure excitement I got realizing I’d found this band! At 26 after 11-12 years I’m finally able to listen to this album again and it’s so sick. Rad. Thanks for the good memories
I am starting to realize That I can do nothing on my own Everything that I start to build crumbles Into nothing! It's safe to say, then, no matter what I try I fall so short This unrelenting pride Continues to widen the space Between you and I Is there any point in trying to change? No matter what I do It always stays the same. But I feel like this has been made for me Is there something more that I can't say? All I want is to let go I try so hard; this pride still grows Just for once to breathe in deep And catch a glimpse of what you see in me So many years of sorrow and grief The bitterness I tasted in the face of defeat How can I forget the joy of the mountain tops Down in the valleys?! Is there any point in trying to change? No matter what I do it always stays the same. But I feel like this has been made for me. Is there something more that I can't say? But your ways are different they call out to me No matter what I do you always stay the same And I will have the choice to say There is more to this life I am living There is more There is more And even amidst the struggle Of finding the man You've called me to be Your love reminds me That though I am broken I am still standing I am still screaming! Is there any point in trying to change? No matter what I do It always stay the same. And I will have the choice to say There is more to this life I am living There is more to this life I am living There is more to this life I am living
I've been a Christian my entire life and I've always liked this bad, but being a Christian that's been going through a tough time makes their music just hit so much deeper to me. I love it. These guys were a great band. I pray they get back together one day.
Growing up as a young teen I hated Christianity and Christian’s because a lot of them were so judgmental and I had no idea this band was Christian. Years later I myself am a Christian and found out this band was Christian as well. It makes me appreciate the music a little bit more
I hate that extremely talented bands like this aren't heard the way they should be. The lyrics in this particular song are so powerful, it saved my life. Was down in the dumps of life, in the midst of a very high drug problem. As I was slapping my arm for another run down, I came across this band. Never heard them, so I was intrigued. At first I thought "well this is just another wanna-be band, but I'll give it a try." Heard it once, never touched heroine again.... I love all of you, if your life is broken, please... please take these lyrics in. I'm still standing, I'm still screaming.
"Your love reminds me that though I am broken I am still standing" I love these lyrics. They brought tears to my eyes reminding me a few things. I am a sinner but find strength in God, and also, I can feel beaten down often from hearing horrible things people say about me and others for following Jesus. Not saying that was what was intended in the lyrics but what I found for me as a meaning.
It's not only heart he puts into this song, he uses all of his energy putting everything into the voice you see in this video making it quite obvious that this song touches him just as it touches us. This song leaves you with the feeling you get at the end of a good movie, you just wish didn't have to end, but yet you are still satisfied at the same time.
Esta banda, su musica me mantuvo fuerte durante una epoca muy dura! Sin saber tanto ingles y nisiquiera saber que eran cristianos! Sali adelante de una depresión y aprendi que solo trabajando dia a dia y haciendo bien las cosas podía darle un sentido a mi vida! Los amo
This song keeps me going through hard days. "I am still standing, I'm still screaming", "There is more to this life I'm living". His screaming and singing in this song gives so much power, so much energy and emotion. I truely love it and it makes me feel (good) again.
@@chirripitiflauticoid believe he has his own UA-cam channel, and does the odd acoustic solo stuff. He was apart or still is apart of a post hardcore outfit that are pretty heavy. Give it a look!
Last time I heard of him here in town was that he had messing his throat and goal chords up and didn’t wanna risk irreversible damage and took a step back from this stuff.
One of the best post hardcore bands I've ever listened to and they came late in the game also. Inspired myself during that time to play and we eventually got on the battle of the bands warped tour stage in Cleveland. Got to live the dream if even for a moment. Thank you close your eyes.
This song means so much to me in many ways. It’s like a part of life everyone goes through. Still to this day, I’m still trying to see what’s more. Wish y’all luck.
It is absolutely insane that empty hands and heavy hearts as been out for over a decade!!! Every song especially this still holds strong! This was the peak for close your eyes...
Yes brother, regardless of If I somehow wind up making it to their set, or realistically making it to the festival at all lol, I’m without a doubt gonna search tirelessly for the best quality, fullest/longest video coverage of their set I can find, hopefully whoever films them does the best they can within their ability and however much time they’re allowed free, in hopes that best case scenario; a long clip of at least decent quality covering their full set gets uploaded. I’m honestly not counting on all that tho
if everyone had as much heart as Shane then the world would be a better place, no one else takes their music as passionate as he did and i wish i saw more then 2 shows before he left
I love this band and all the songs that they have made! They have a different energy and sound that makes people want to listen to them. I don't see how people can say that they hate this band...
I remember the night I found these guys, back in 2011. I swear for the next 3-4 months I promoted the hell out of there music everyone was finding out about them lmao!! I was in love with their sound! Hell I still am! These guys were great!!!
I think, that I am a believer of Christ myself. And I can't listen to ANYTHING on the radio that sounds actually good, I like Christian music but it doesn't appeal to me like this kind of music does. These guys give me the hope, drive, and encouragement I need to move through my every day life. It's completely relevant. The lyrics mean so much. It speaks to me in a way no other kind of music can. So yes, the fact that these guys are strong in their faith means a lot.

Coming back to this in 2019 because I might need it now more than ever. Man I miss this band.
Matt H I’m in the same boat. Great band.

everytime I hear this song. I get goosebumps and glassy eyed.
yesyesyesyes hundred times YES !
I GET THAT WITH SONG OF THE BROKEN :(
Same
I like it, having first heard it today, but it sounds like me and my boiz would have wiped our asses with you, had there ever been a 'scene'- boogaloo
I am starting to realize
That I can do nothing on my own
Everything that I start to build crumbles
Into nothing!
It's safe to say, then, no matter what
I try I fall so short
This unrelenting pride
Continues to widen the space
Between you and I
Is there any point in trying to change?
No matter what I do
It always stays the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't say?
All I want is to let go
I try so hard; this pride still grows
Just for once to breathe in deep
And catch a glimpse of what you see in me
So many years of sorrow and grief
The bitterness I tasted in the face of defeat
How can I forget the joy of the mountain tops
Down in the valleys?!
Is there any point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stays the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me.
Is there something more that I can't say?
But your ways are different they call out to me
No matter what I do you always stay the same
And I will have the choice to say
There is more to this life I am living
There is more
There is more
And even amidst the struggle
Of finding the man
You've called me to be
Your love reminds me
That though I am broken I am still standing
I am still screaming!
Is there any point in trying to change?
No matter what I do
It always stay the same.

Yeah. Their musics are deep, and have an amazing feeling. Even listen to non-Christian bands, i still listening to CYE.

Before I learned these guys were religious, I thought this was more from the perspective of addressing loved ones. It helped me stay sober.
1/14/2020... still here. And we need them again! Need more bands like this. These songs hit the heart for real.

Yes brother, regardless of If I somehow wind up making it to their set, or realistically making it to the festival at all lol, I’m without a doubt gonna search tirelessly for the best quality, fullest/longest video coverage of their set I can find, hopefully whoever films them does the best they can within their ability and however much time they’re allowed free, in hopes that best case scenario; a long clip of at least decent quality covering their full set gets uploaded. I’m honestly not counting on all that tho

I remember the night I found these guys, back in 2011. I swear for the next 3-4 months I promoted the hell out of there music everyone was finding out about them lmao!! I was in love with their sound! Hell I still am! These guys were great!!!
I think, that I am a believer of Christ myself. And I can't listen to ANYTHING on the radio that sounds actually good, I like Christian music but it doesn't appeal to me like this kind of music does. These guys give me the hope, drive, and encouragement I need to move through my every day life. It's completely relevant. The lyrics mean so much. It speaks to me in a way no other kind of music can. So yes, the fact that these guys are strong in their faith means a lot.
I'm so glad I found this band again after almost 4 years
Still here in 2024 🖤🖤
this song couldn’t have been reintroduced into my life at a more meaningful time. let’s get this!
Hands down favourite song. Music and Lyrics hit so hard.

Lyrics
I am starting to realize
That I can do nothing on my own
Everything that I start to build crumbles into nothing!
It's safe to say no matter what
I try I fall so short
This unrelenting pride
Continues to widen the space between you and I
Is there a point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stay the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't see?
All I want is to let go
I try so hard; this pride still grows
Just for once to breathe in deep
And catch a glimpse of what you see in me
So many years of sorrow and grief
The bitterness I tasted in the face of defeat
How can I forget the joy of the mountain tops
Down in the valleys?!
Is there a point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stay the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't see?
But your ways are different they call out to me
No matter what I do you always stay the same
And I will have the choice to say
There is more to this life I am living
There is more
There is more
And even amidst the struggle of finding the man
That you have called me to be
Your love reminds me
That though I am broken I am still standing
I am still screaming!
Is there a point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stay the same.
And I will have the choice to say
There is more to this life I am living
There is more to this life I am living
There is more to this life I am living
Dennis Waweru thank you so much
So glad these guys are coming back!!! Shane is such an amazing vocalist
Let's go!!!
10 years later, still banging Empty Hands like it was yesterday!
Slapping this in 2021!!!
Here in 2023, never leaving this banger.
And in the midst of struggles and finding the man you've called me to be, your love reminds me.
That though I am broken, I am still standing. I am still screaming.
Goosebumps.
Every fucking time.
