In a world of auto tune and lyrics written. By professional song writers there is one man who defies that by singing beautifully and writes passionately we need more artist like this
I agree 100%! We need more artists like this. Justin has a special talent that can reach into your very soul and grab hold of you. I admire his honesty about the personal life situations he so candidly shares with all of us right to try to help people who may be struggling in their own life. Truly one of a kind that, I hope, continues touching people with his music for ever!
Terry, you are right about that. I can't wait to see you in person in utah at UVU. I haven't been able to get ticketsyet but I'm going to go and hope for the best
My dad died Oct 2021. This man's songs have saved me many times. This song is so on point. Beautifly. My dad was my best friend. My heart broke when I was told. He was the one person who loved me unconditionally. Also 18th floor balcony was my wedding song!! So Justin you have been a blessing. Thank you @blueoctober
Never give up on the ones we 💕 Addiction is around all over. Lost my boyfriend February 9th, 2021 to Liver Failure. He was a wonderful man and his liver took a toll. He was 45. Still a young guy with more years to have in life. I will forever miss him. We both were divorced and never wanted to marry again we had a great connection. We saw Justin in 2017. What a great band Blue October is. My boyfriend would blast his music loud. Neighbors never complained. RIP Jim we miss you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m struggling with my depression right now and listening to this acoustic version has me on my knees, bent over in tears. Artists know how to put into words what we can’t. Justin you are too good for this world and I want to thank you for sharing this with us
Praying for your strength and peace.. even in our deepest pits of despair we aren't alone.. Your fight is not over.. keep pushing keep going.. God is with you! Love u. Praying for you
This song touches my heart. Like you wouldn't believe. I want to thank you, and tell you, your an amazing artist. And a great singer, your music will always hold a special spot in my heart.. and again Thank You..
It's a plea against suicide. It comes from the campaign created by Jared Padalecki. This article explains why he created it: variety.com/2015/tv/people-news/jared-padalecki-always-keep-fighting-depression-suicide-twloha-1201451708/
One of the best songs ever!! I use this a lot for my therapy sessions with clients. This song has changed my life Justin, thank you for sharing it with all of us :)
The class of Sting, lyrics like Bono, and a voice like Peter Gabriel........reaching out and making it all your own ... Thank you Sir, from the bottom of my heart. Your message has helped so many of us through the dark places. It is true.......God sends his angels at the strangest times, in so many forms. We just need to listen.
I literally bawled like a baby. this song speaks to me on such an intense level and I connect with it so much. Justin's words reach into my heart and wrap around my soul. Blue October's music is perfection
This is the best helping song with sadness depression and fear most of all ,... This song has been helpful throughout all of mine and my families tuff times and I thank God for where and why I'm here at the moment. Thank u God Amen ❤️🙏🏼
First time i have saw this video or even heard this song was today october 19, 2023 😮😮😮😮 and wow just wow i have no words the end when he stops playing i had chills from head to toe like his voice was speaking straight to my soul ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ absolutely amazing 👏 ALL IMA SAY IF YOU NEVER SAW THIS WAIT UNTIL END OF SONG 🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤
as an addict struggling with addiction every fucking day this song gives me so much strength to move forward and try harder than what i have been doing i have no words to describe.
************************ All my life Been running from a pain in me A feeling I don't understand Holding me down So rain on me Underwater All I am, getting harder A heavy weight I carry around Today I don't have to fall apart I don't have to be afraid I don't have to let the damage Consume me, My shadow see through me 'Cause fear in itself Will reel you in and spit you out Over and over again Believe in yourself And you will walk Now, fear in itself Will use you up and break you down Like you were never enough Yeah, I used to fall, now I get back up I'm up here I'm looking at the way down there I'm staring through the I don't care It's staring back at me The beauty is I'm learning how to face my beast Starting now to find some peace Set myself free, yeah Today I don't have to fall apart I don't have to be afraid I don't have to let the damage consume me My shadow see through me 'Cause fear in itself Will reel you in and spit you out Over and over again Believe in yourself And you will walk And now, fear in itself Will use you up and break you down Like you were never enough I used to fall but now I get back up I'm moving on Oh God just move on Today I don't have to fall apart I don't have to be afraid Get back up Get up Feel it, fear, wow And now fear, fear in itself can use you up And then breaks you down You're never enough And I used to fall Breathe Ask for more If you're bitter still Ask him to help you carry on. ❤️
I was going to post this on the "regular" song, but I think this is much better. I am an educated man with a science degree in psychology and working on a masters in neuropsychology. I am an Iraq war veteran that has fought the "beast" in his head for a long time. I am doing great, have a family, carrer and focus on helping others that are walking the same darkness. Recently, a month ago those beasts came back. I dont know how or why. So in 20min when my wife comes home, I will finally let everything go. I was a kid, and after 14 years, I found someone I can let these things go with. After digging all of it in, I will let it go. And thank you, "blue october," I listened to you when I was alone and I will listen again because now there is something worth fighting for--- my family. I will let go becuse in order to help others, I have to fight them and teach others how to do so. Thank you.
I was craving this song today. Can’t get enough of it. I wish my brother could have heard the Sway Album he would have loved it, especially this song. I credit him for helping me find this band and Justin as an amazing artist. My brother loved Blue October. We enjoyed many of their concerts together be his passing in 2012. I credit this song for giving me strength as every day I try to move on the best I can. I’ve lost 3 siblings and it’s never easy but God blesses amazing people with Gifts that bring us so much joy and hope. I just want to thank Justin and Blue October for all of their amazing songs we get to enjoy as they touch our hearts and souls in so many ways during our life here on earth.
I also lost my sister in 2012. She introduced me to Blue October when we were teenagers. Shortly before she died one of the last moments we shared together was listening to their Any Man In American album. Those songs didn’t necessarily have much to do with what I was going through after she was killed but that album helped me work through a lot of emotions I endured after the loss. Justin’s emotions that he portrays in all of his music just hit home. She would have loved their new music and albums too. I wish every time I listen to them that I could share them with her.
Mother of GAWD!!! I can't get enough......I'm truly on my knees....and I don't believe in God. Please don't let this become a discussion....but, he writes his heart, soul, and blood into his songs, and, HELLO? Where have I been...Under a damn rock, not to ever hear this beautiful songwriter and singer? I am 52 years old, ya, and an old rocker...I am so blown away. "Today, I don't have to fall apart"
I agree totally, same here..his beautiful vocal performance and musical talent along with being a. Brilliant songwriter amazes me.Music needed the. addition of Blue October, the gift of this band. Thank you.
I love to watch him perform. The emotion, raw emotion... so glad I met him. Was able to talk to him and let him know how much his music... his words... have meant to me. Shared a hug (pre-covid) and he simply said, "God Bless You, man".
God I love and people feel and see the same things that's deep in their head that's for you Guerrero.. and for me... the greatest... rendition ..thanks..
I don’t know if anyone is still listening to this, but I am 48 years old and still heavily struggling with alcohol abuse disorder. This song gives me hope. I don’t want to do this anymore. I’m tired.
This song means the absolute world to me. In a very dark place right now and these inspiring words are shedding the light that I desperately needed. Absolutely Love justin for his beautiful gift.
It’s 2020, a perfect shitstorm of a year, why doesn’t this song have at least 100m views? If we can find comfort in some level of humanity, it’s got to be through Justin and this song!
I wish I could like this video a thousand times. By far one of the most beautiful songs in the world. How Justin can sing / scream with no music and it's so amazing it gives me goosebumps, he is one freaking talented man.
Jesus Christ. I tear up every time when he stops playing his guitar. I cant even begin to understand how he doesnt burst into tears when he sings that part.
This man has the most beautiful soul! I am privileged that I got the chance to meet and take a picture with this man and see him perform live! Blue October 4 Life!
Same here, i got to meet him when he played a show in Missoula MT, and i got his autograph and a chance to tell him how much his music meant to me while i literally bawled my eyes out.
I Love Blue October!The Lead singer had a Dark Time in his Life and Thank the Lord Jesus Christ for Bringing hope back to him. I’m hearing The Strong Passion With a Purpose 🎚Tina from Ks...💙 to my brother Marty....
My very 1st time hearing this song was today. I have ben clean for quite a few years now and yet I still struggle with depression and fear. I suck at expressing myself, Im an asshole to the people who love me the most, I push people away, and I let the fear drive me far too often. I am thankful for the man I am today as opposed to whom I once was. This so g literally made me cry and I have not cried since I lost my pops in May. I do feel a bit better now. I have listened to this song at least 5 times in a row.
This is the most emotional concert I've ever attended. I'll never forget him saying a few words before this song and as he began the intro someone shouted, "I'm proud of you, Justin." Incredible moment.
justin has been blessed with the ability to be insightful, to be self aware of his own emotional being, to intuitively just 'know' how to express this through his song writing and music .. and he does this in a way that reaches out and touches something inside of us, we feel empathy for him, and we are spiritually connected .. we become the song and the song becomes us , we understand, we 'get' it
He wears all his emotion in both is face and the way he moves. Thats why I love watching their videos, you see just how meaningful the music is to him and how he not only means, but also feels the words he sings. Incredible.
I was very close to the point of no return one night,when my daughter sent me a link to this song.after a major break down i made it to the morning.thank you for this beauty.
Blue October has always made a Major Impact On My Life. My Mother past away this past week and I Always Come back To what touches my soul and many others! One of my Favorites and keep up them Lyrical Heartsrings. Id like to meet an Awesome group like this once in my Lifetime . GodBless
TheHaos1 for real why doesn't . . . when I shot the video it blew me away! I would for the whole world to see it and be moved the way I was . . . share the hell out of the video!!!
Thomas Guerrero You shot this video?? Wow bro, great job and thank you again this is absolutely quite possibly my favorite song of all time!! Life changing!
Zach lovett I was lucky enough to shoot it . . . I've seen Blue October a ton of times but by far being so close and getting to see Justin in that moment was awesome!
Just found this song ❤ it moved me it gave me chills!! This what good music sounds like. I can't deal with these new artists new rappers their music just doesnt move me like this.... What a man
I absolutely love Justin's passion for his music and the strength that shows through his lyrics. His songs always tell an emotional story and it's very easy to feel those emotions when listening. I've been fortunate to have seen Blue October in concert but I would have loved to have done a meet and greet. Maybe one day!
From minute 5:24 till the end I had goosebumps and tears in my eyes. Some of us can only imagine the battles and demons he must have fought... Justin your songs and words mean a lot to me. Thank you for being the man you are now.
I don't know about anyone one else, but from 5:24 - 5:58 ,, I can absolutely feel Justin's energy. I can't help but to notice my fists also clenching in unison with his.
❤❤❤ Such an AMAZING man, poet, singer, storyteller, beautiful strong yet gentle soul. This is one of my favorite songs. It is SO powerful to me, because I have FELT every word in my own life. I never understood the weight I had always felt until I heard this song (original video). Now I get up, everyday and play this. Thank you so much Justin Furstenfeld for the inspiration and strength. 😘
I've decided that my second tattoo is going to be "Today, I don't have to fall apart." Whenever I'm struggling, that's one of the affirmations I tell myself and I think of this song. Justin is an amazing inspiration and I'm so happy this song exists because there are times I really need it and it helps me face my fears and irrational anxieties.
I love his songs..cant wait to see him play in Oklahoma..going to drive 3 hours going to take my 7 year old daughter and husband to see him..(daughter is stoked)
All I can say is “Open Book Tour”. Literally the best concert that I have ever attended. I have never laughed, or cried more at a show. My absolute favorite band.
This song hits home. I’m at rock bottom. And I just am trying to find myself a way out. Everyday is a struggle. Thank you for writing this inspirational song.
I know you made this comment 1yr ago but I pray and hope you're ok. I'm at rock bottom right now and this video makes me cry my eyes out and I'm a grown man.
I really hope you've found your way, lifes tribulations are hard but never give up! I have been there myself to many times to count. Just keep believing in yourself friend
Это чудо! Всю жизнь и скорбь отоброзил. Это было воздущюшно.... и счастье присутствовал. Впм огромное спасибо. Я первый раз лушала такую музыку. Спасибо вам..
As a recovering addict, Justin's music really hits home for me, but this song....this performance, is so raw and emotional that I can just lose myself in it and find the inspiration on the other side.
I discovered Blue October a few months back, WOW is all I can say. I can relate to every song that I listen to...Since I was a kid I have had to fight and survive everyday to get where I am today. My car rides now are an emotional roller coaster all the way to work. I will be going to Portland ME to see these guys in October and can't wait! If your there I will probably be the guy in the GA floor section looking like an emotional train wreck.
I was asked once by my therapist to find a way to express myself as to how I see my life at that moment, then how I wanted my life to look like, I chose to share this song with her as the latter. I feel 100 ways as I wake up today, to come across this today has simplified it to a smile, if only for a moment.....
I cannot stop crying.. this is so beautiful and has come to me at a time when I needed to hear this. I love this song and all the other songs i have heard since discovering you ... this performance gave me goosebumps and just was so cathartic for me helped release all the pain
This song saved my life. I first heard it at my 5th rehab, after throwing a chair through a window out of anger. It was because FEAR not anger. Justin, you are influencing a lot of people with your music. Thank you.
Heard this when I was in Jail my celly sang the whole song, I asked him what was the song name and by who after he told me I kept it with me untill I got out, loved it ever since and still do till this day.😊👍

My dad died Oct 2021. This man's songs have saved me many times. This song is so on point. Beautifly. My dad was my best friend. My heart broke when I was told.

Never give up on the ones we 💕 Addiction is around all over. Lost my boyfriend February 9th, 2021 to Liver Failure. He was a wonderful man and his liver took a toll. He was 45.

What a great band Blue October is. My boyfriend would blast his music loud. Neighbors never complained. RIP Jim we miss you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Probably THE most passionate and pure acoustic performance of a song I have ever heard. In joyful tears.
One of the many version's of Fear I love. When he hits that part where he stops playing and just sings at the end. Man.... the chills.
I’m struggling with my depression right now and listening to this acoustic version has me on my knees, bent over in tears. Artists know how to put into words what we can’t. Justin you are too good for this world and I want to thank you for sharing this with us
Stay strong and have faith in God. God brings artists like this in our lives for a reason. Music is very therapeutic.
Praying for your strength and peace.. even in our deepest pits of despair we aren't alone.. Your fight is not over.. keep pushing keep going.. God is with you! Love u. Praying for you
@@amyggonsalez thank you! I’m so much better now. My psychiatrist has me on 3 antidepressants and it’s working 💚 ;

************************
All my life
Been running from a pain in me
A feeling I don't understand
Holding me down
So rain on me
Underwater
All I am, getting harder
A heavy weight
I carry around
Today
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to let the damage
Consume me,
My shadow see through me
'Cause fear in itself
Will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself
And you will walk
Now, fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
Like you were never enough
Yeah, I used to fall, now I get back up
I'm up here
I'm looking at the way down there
I'm staring through the I don't care
It's staring back at me
The beauty is
I'm learning how to face my beast
Starting now to find some peace
Set myself free, yeah
Today
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to let the damage consume me
My shadow see through me
'Cause fear in itself
Will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself
And you will walk
And now, fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
Like you were never enough
I used to fall but now I get back up
I'm moving on
Oh God just move on
Today
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
Get back up
Get up
Feel it, fear, wow
And now fear, fear in itself can use you up
And then breaks you down
You're never enough
And I used to fall
Breathe
Ask for more
If you're bitter still
Ask him to help you carry on. ❤️
These lyrics hit an emotional chord so deep that it can only be felt & heard by your heart
I was going to post this on the "regular" song, but I think this is much better. I am an educated man with a science degree in psychology and working on a masters in neuropsychology.
I am an Iraq war veteran that has fought the "beast" in his head for a long time. I am doing great, have a family, carrer and focus on helping others that are walking the same darkness.

I think this is one of the Best Songs Ever written....Thank you JUSTIN FURSTENFELD for this beautiful GIFT.
I was craving this song today. Can’t get enough of it. I wish my brother could have heard the Sway Album he would have loved it, especially this song. I credit him for helping me find this band and Justin as an amazing artist. My brother loved Blue October. We enjoyed many of their concerts together be his passing in 2012. I credit this song for giving me strength as every day I try to move on the best I can. I’ve lost 3 siblings and it’s never easy but God blesses amazing people with Gifts that bring us so much joy and hope. I just want to thank Justin and Blue October for all of their amazing songs we get to enjoy as they touch our hearts and souls in so many ways during our life here on earth.
I also lost my sister in 2012. She introduced me to Blue October when we were teenagers. Shortly before she died one of the last moments we shared together was listening to their Any Man In American album. Those songs didn’t necessarily have much to do with what I was going through after she was killed but that album helped me work through a lot of emotions I endured after the loss. Justin’s emotions that he portrays in all of his music just hit home. She would have loved their new music and albums too. I wish every time I listen to them that I could share them with her.
BRO had to move that mic back a foot and still roared through my soul. What a great song and I love this man.
Mother of GAWD!!! I can't get enough......I'm truly on my knees....and I don't believe in God. Please don't let this become a discussion....but, he writes his heart, soul, and blood into his songs, and, HELLO? Where have I been...Under a damn rock, not to ever hear this beautiful songwriter and singer? I am 52 years old, ya, and an old rocker...I am so blown away. "Today, I don't have to fall apart"
I don't usually make posts online but this was simply amazing and deserves attention. Justin is a true artist.

words are words they come and they go but during silence a soul speaks

He has no more years. He beat fear. No more. I know where he's been. I feel him 💯. That's a man on fire.

He leaves the crying to the fans. I cry every time yet I can't stop listening to this song

Replaying this song over and over and over again. My life in a song
Fastest 6 and a half minutes of beautiful pain I've ever seen he is absolutely fantastic!!!!
I was going thru a painful Divorce in 2006-2007 when foil(B.O) was all over the radio! Been a fan since , truly songs from the heart
Justin is the whole package. Vocals, kind to fans and supports his band
My very favorite version aside from hearing it live! 💙

He wears all his emotion in both is face and the way he moves. Thats why I love watching their videos, you see just how meaningful the music is to him and how he not only means, but also feels the words he sings. Incredible.
If there was ever a song that was perfectly suited to a live acoustic performance, it is with out doubt this.
This song means the world to me, it makes me cry, smile and helps me believe their is a light at the end of the tunnel.
3 years later this song still has the power to grab me by the heart and help me get through anything in my way. Thank you Justin.

The best song ever!!! Blue October is sadly underrated & Justin leaves me breathless every time he sings. Pure Perfection💙🙏💙
Holy shit he goes off at the end. That was powerful
This is my favorite Blue October song. I feel it very deeply
One of THE most heartfelt tracks and my favorite. His voice is equally as gorgeous as the lyrics and music.
In love with this voice. Simple
Simple but there is soooo much behind it. I love it too. Thanks.
Thankyou.
Have you reacted to this on your channel?
Same.
Yes 🙏🏼
Just found this song ❤ it moved me it gave me chills!! This what good music sounds like. I can't deal with these new artists new rappers their music just doesnt move me like this.... What a man
I absolutely love Justin's passion for his music and the strength that shows through his lyrics. His songs always tell an emotional story and it's very easy to feel those emotions when listening. I've been fortunate to have seen Blue October in concert but I would have loved to have done a meet and greet. Maybe one day!
This man is what I hope to be, I have two little girls and I hope to be as strong a man as he...
From minute 5:24 till the end I had goosebumps and tears in my eyes. Some of us can only imagine the battles and demons he must have fought... Justin your songs and words mean a lot to me. Thank you for being the man you are now.
Worry list for me live.all time favourite. But that's class
I don't know about anyone one else, but from 5:24 - 5:58 ,, I can absolutely feel Justin's energy. I can't help but to notice my fists also clenching in unison with his.
ItZWaffleS420 the build-up of 4:48 hit me hard
FailWaffleS yes!!!!!!
But the last few lines are literally some of my favorite lyrics ever written!!
He was amazing then. I felt that he wanted to tell.
FailWaffleS cris young
I don’t know how many times this song has gotten me through hard times.
Have always loved Blue October...but it never fails when I’m lost and need a voice I always seem to find them again! Much love !
Can't put into words how breathtaking this performance is. So raw and emotional
❤❤❤ Such an AMAZING man, poet, singer, storyteller, beautiful strong yet gentle soul. This is one of my favorite songs. It is SO powerful to me, because I have FELT every word in my own life. I never understood the weight I had always felt until I heard this song (original video). Now I get up, everyday and play this. Thank you so much Justin Furstenfeld for the inspiration and strength. 😘
My favorite song of all time. Awesome, gives hope. You see I am learning about Jesus. I still fall but I get back up.
I listen to this everyday
This man told me, " I seen you down there, rocking your face off" and it changed my life
booyah, brother! #alwayskeepfighting
Amazing!
I've decided that my second tattoo is going to be "Today, I don't have to fall apart." Whenever I'm struggling, that's one of the affirmations I tell myself and I think of this song. Justin is an amazing inspiration and I'm so happy this song exists because there are times I really need it and it helps me face my fears and irrational anxieties.
The passion that Justin has in this song every time i hear or watch the video tears are in my eyes. Love this song so much
I love his songs..cant wait to see him play in Oklahoma..going to drive 3 hours going to take my 7 year old daughter and husband to see him..(daughter is stoked)
All I can say is “Open Book Tour”. Literally the best concert that I have ever attended. I have never laughed, or cried more at a show. My absolute favorite band.
This song hits home. I’m at rock bottom. And I just am trying to find myself a way out. Everyday is a struggle. Thank you for writing this inspirational song.
I know you made this comment 1yr ago but I pray and hope you're ok. I'm at rock bottom right now and this video makes me cry my eyes out and I'm a grown man.
I really hope you've found your way, lifes tribulations are hard but never give up! I have been there myself to many times to count. Just keep believing in yourself friend
Это чудо! Всю жизнь и скорбь отоброзил. Это было воздущюшно.... и счастье присутствовал. Впм огромное спасибо. Я первый раз лушала такую музыку. Спасибо вам..
this song is so pure it hits my feels.
Goose bumps.... Beautiful..... Just beautiful. Thank you so much Thomas for sharing this...
As a recovering addict, Justin's music really hits home for me, but this song....this performance, is so raw and emotional that I can just lose myself in it and find the inspiration on the other side.
I discovered Blue October a few months back, WOW is all I can say. I can relate to every song that I listen to...Since I was a kid I have had to fight and survive everyday to get where I am today. My car rides now are an emotional roller coaster all the way to work. I will be going to Portland ME to see these guys in October and can't wait! If your there I will probably be the guy in the GA floor section looking like an emotional train wreck.
This breaks my heart and puts it back together with even more love for Blue October 💙
This song helps me through the pain.
Hi
Bom
This is the best song written ever ... Period!
There is no equal to this; he bears his soul.
My #1 favorite. So uplifting. Humbling. Emotional. True. Raw. Thank you
I was asked once by my therapist to find a way to express myself as to how I see my life at that moment, then how I wanted my life to look like, I chose to share this song with her as the latter. I feel 100 ways as I wake up today, to come across this today has simplified it to a smile, if only for a moment.....
Bonnie Mahana that's powerful
Beautiful❤️
He is a great example of what alot of us is going through great artists and brilliant song writer

I cannot stop crying.. this is so beautiful and has come to me at a time when I needed to hear this. I love this song and all the other songs i have heard since discovering you ... this performance gave me goosebumps and just was so cathartic for me helped release all the pain
This song saved my life. I first heard it at my 5th rehab, after throwing a chair through a window out of anger. It was because FEAR not anger. Justin, you are influencing a lot of people with your music. Thank you.
This is so amazing. Can't believe this doesn't have more views. Thanks so much for posting.
This deserves so much more credit than it's getting. I love Justin! He is so inspirational.
I loved & appreciated this song so much already, but I am so thankful to Justin for putting out this beautiful version of this song 💕
Heard this when I was in Jail my celly sang the whole song, I asked him what was the song name and by who after he told me I kept it with me untill I got out, loved it ever since and still do till this day.😊👍
He is a beautiful person!! Indeed!!
He talks about his life and everything above. He is amazing man.
