i thought this was going to be horrible, but it's quite interesting and very worthy of a listen. the original is probably still one of my favorite hardcore songs of all time. makes me yearn for hardcore in the early '00s again.
Agreed 110%. When I heard this whole album for first time I was senior in high school and I was blasting this in my bronco with two alpine 12” speakers. Ahhhh the good old days
These dudes were my first live show around 2001 at Ace Of Spades in Sactown after my buddy snuck me in cause was 21 n over and me Billy got a couple beers and then my hole life changed after that 🤘 Shout out to my dude Billy wherever u are these days 🤙
Played this for my daughter every day after she was born for like a month...just listening to this again 5 years after....you have no idea how much this puts me back there...thanks for posting this honestly...it means alot
Poison The Well was the band that got it right the first time around. Here we are a decade and bands are still using their template. PTW will forever be one of my favorite bands.
This song. This is my favorite version, 2006 i would listen to nerdy on repeat, in art class, on the bus, etc. This will forever be my favorite song, engrained forever in my memories.
A decade later and I still get chills whenever I listen to this song. It’s raw and unpolished but I think that it captures the depth of the song perfectly! From tears when I first heard this song to chills from the heavy nostalgia that it beautifully brings me.
i'm infatuated with this cover.. i haven't listened to 'metal' since my high school years(05-07) and it feels so nice to hear this song again to remind me of all i've lost and how happy i am to hold the one i love and still get lost in her eyes. and this version is one i can show to my girl... let's see if she can appreciate it like i have.
A year ago I wouldve thought only about the wasted time believing it was all for nothing.....but although its what i hoped it never would be i found what i truly wanted and who and what I yern to be.....good job me you broke the malicious cycle of arrogance and ignorance.....
the answer is: awesome i fell in love with PTW in 2002 when i was i guess 12 or 13 years old. that was when i was big on the hardcore scene back then. people didn't fuck with these guys but i always sang their praise. this song is awesome. it's like a private slice of heaven for us oldschool PTW fans. Like a secret fishing spot, or a really awesome place in the woods that no one knows about respect
Why do your eyes paralyze me? What makes me feel this way? Just carry me away with silence And heartbeats as rapid Just thinking of your embrace And how it makes me feel I just want to feel this way forever Forever Sleep on portraits Painted as perfect as you Why have I been given the chance to fly Away When I'm not with you I feel lesser I’m alone Why have I been given the chance to fly? I remember your face imprinted On angels Your voice as beautiful as the sounds of waves Crashing against my heart Time slows down when you look at me I'm infatuated with this Infatuated with you With you.... Sleep on portraits Painted as perfect as you Why have I been given the chance to fly Away When I’m not with you I feel lesser I’m alone Why have I been given the chance to fly? Yeah I remember your face imprinted On angels It's so hard for me to understand why I hadn't found you before Don’t dull away Hold my hand
This song is so incredibly dear to my heart and has been for years. It has strangely reincarnated itself to a melody for my daughter. Xoxo. Beautiful lyrics
I’m a huge fan of PTW and never could have interpreted this song this way on my acoustic. I tried for years to turn it acoustic. Even better now that are touring again in 2021!
I don't think this is poison the well, I'm pretty sure its a cover. I've had this song on my old mp3 players/phones for years. It had a different band as the artist every time I "legally" downloaded it over the years. Glad to see it up here but the accuracy of the title might be sketchy
I've been listening to this since it was posted, and this is one of the best god damn songs I've heard. 110K views? Not sure if that's awesome, or tragic....

well, i still think its a love song. that line "when im not with you i feel lesser alone" could also mean he feels lesser alone because he simply knows that shes there... and to be infatuated matches the feelings when youre really in love.
@djnorge, There are so many amazing things to experience in life before you let it pass by. Before I go, I want to travel the world with a band and I'm not going to let that dream go until the end. Don't let yourself down over that one girl. If she's not the one, you can still always wait for a better one to come around that truly loves you back. There are always more opportunities ahead of you, don't let one thing get you down!
POISON THE WELL - NERDY Por que seus olhos me paralisam O que me faz sentir assim Apenas me leve embora com silêncio e batimentos cardíacos Como pensamento rápido sobre o seu abraço E como isso me faz sentir Eu só quero me sentir assim para sempre Durma em retratos pintados tão perfeitos quanto você Por que tive a chance de voar Quando não estou com você, me sinto menos sozinho Lembro-me de seu rosto / impresso em anjos bonito / como o som das ondas Batendo contra o meu coração O tempo diminui quando você olha para mim Estou apaixonado por isso / apaixonado por você É tão difícil para mim entender por que Eu não tinha te encontrado antes, não se apavore Segure minha mão
@ipseadamovos remembering never " last night alone" off she looks good in red is cool and a song / instrumental by "nodes of ranvier " called - "its going to be ok" maybe like those , check em
@destinationuknown85 Maybe about a nerdy kid having a major crush on a girl he will never get... I used to listen to this thinking about a girl i loved, but now i don't think it is actually a love song. That line "When I'm NOT with you I feel lesser alone", means he feels more alone with the person than without. Think about it :)
@TheSamoanElvis perfectly said, i dont believe in keyboard warriors, but if that wasn't already pointed out i think i would have just dedicated my life to finding the man behind that nonsense, so thanks for saving the trouble, again well said
@djnorge calm down man, we are who we are for a reason. Don't let that kinda stuff bring you down buddy! In the big picture of life, ur not alone and you also arnt much different than anyone else. No one is perfect man :) not even that girl u liked!
I listened to this song many times, and I didn't realize how beautiful the lyrics are.
Same here I’ve listened to poison the well for almost 15 years and within the last year realized how beautiful this song actually is
Never to late to prove to people how deep metal is..it's not angst it's art. Enjoy it brother.
Yeees they are and bless all you who are still LISTENING IN 2021 and COUNTING!!! Rise up!!!
I DIDNT REALIZE HOW BEAUTIFUL THE FU**ING SONG IS!!!!
i thought this was going to be horrible, but it's quite interesting and very worthy of a listen. the original is probably still one of my favorite hardcore songs of all time. makes me yearn for hardcore in the early '00s again.
Literally my favorite and my first. I still remember hearing it for first time like what is this brilliance.
Agreed 110%. When I heard this whole album for first time I was senior in high school and I was blasting this in my bronco with two alpine 12” speakers. Ahhhh the good old days
Nobody jams like Poison the Well, Zao, and From Autumn to Ashes used to. Nobody. And it’s fuckin sad.
These dudes were my first live show around 2001 at Ace Of Spades in Sactown after my buddy snuck me in cause was 21 n over and me Billy got a couple beers and then my hole life changed after that 🤘 Shout out to my dude Billy wherever u are these days 🤙

Poison The Well was the band that got it right the first time around. Here we are a decade and bands are still using their template. PTW will forever be one of my favorite bands.
I honestly listen to both versions of this song every fucking day
Sean Klotz Same
PTW has STAYED my favorite band for over ten years now. the entire back of my calf is a poison the well tattoo.
I love you guys.
only band i can go back to and feel at home
You're awesome.
I'm almost 35 and they're in my top 10. :D
your profile lol "more sarms more arms"...💀
@@Meilk27 based Derek viewer.
@@androgynylunacyno you're awesome. 10 yrs ago I wrote this is my favorite band and song
still true over 20 yrs
This song. This is my favorite version, 2006 i would listen to nerdy on repeat, in art class, on the bus, etc. This will forever be my favorite song, engrained forever in my memories.
A Hole in the World acoustic by Thursday is a banger too.
Talk about a song that saved my life. Still get chills
You mean the original or this cover?
@@jepicondyle both. PTW is great, the cover just let me show someone why the original was so good tho
@@bluehen32 awesome 👏
This is literally my favorite song ever.
Dan Kelsey same
I listen to this acoustic version first then the regular one, it’s a darn masterpiece!
For real? Haha that’s awesome. I think it rarely goes that way
A decade later and I still get chills whenever I listen to this song. It’s raw and unpolished but I think that it captures the depth of the song perfectly! From tears when I first heard this song to chills from the heavy nostalgia that it beautifully brings me.
Remnants of who we all were, and will never be again.
great times in high school with this song. I love it
I honestly love this more than most people I know. I remember listening to this song in full glory in 2004.
Max M I remember it was on a Trustkill compilation cd they were handing out to the people waiting in line for the 12 tribes concert back in ‘04
i'm infatuated with this cover.. i haven't listened to 'metal' since my high school years(05-07) and it feels so nice to hear this song again to remind me of all i've lost and how happy i am to hold the one i love and still get lost in her eyes. and this version is one i can show to my girl... let's see if she can appreciate it like i have.
Wow... I cant believe i never knew there was an acoustic version to this song. this has to be the best discovery i've made on youtube.
This is a cover tho. Not the real band.
This song always gives me chill vibes
This song has been in my life and surfaced I the most interesting times. Both hardcore and acoustic are equally amazing in their own way
A year ago I wouldve thought only about the wasted time believing it was all for nothing.....but although its what i hoped it never would be i found what i truly wanted and who and what I yern to be.....good job me you broke the malicious cycle of arrogance and ignorance.....
I can relate, This song has presented itself during the most intense times of my life.
the answer is: awesome
i fell in love with PTW in 2002 when i was i guess 12 or 13 years old. that was when i was big on the hardcore scene back then. people didn't fuck with these guys but i always sang their praise.

respect
Why do your eyes paralyze me?
What makes me feel this way?
Just carry me away with silence
And heartbeats as rapid
Just thinking of your embrace
And how it makes me feel
I just want to feel this way forever
Forever
Sleep on portraits
Painted as perfect as you
Why have I been given the chance to fly
Away
When I'm not with you
I feel lesser
I’m alone
Why have I been given the chance to fly?
I remember your face imprinted
On angels
Your voice as beautiful as the sounds of waves
Crashing against my heart
Time slows down when you look at me
I'm infatuated with this
Infatuated with you
With you....
Sleep on portraits
Painted as perfect as you
Why have I been given the chance to fly
Away
When I’m not with you
I feel lesser
I’m alone
Why have I been given the chance to fly?
Yeah I remember your face imprinted
On angels
It's so hard for me to understand why
I hadn't found you before
Don’t dull away
Hold my hand
I believe in love. So deep. My heart will never stop beating, my soulmate found me. This song makes me so happy. I will never not be okay. 💙💜🖤💚💛💓💝
this is good man. damn good, i've been listening to this band since i was a kid and this is the best cover of them i've ever heard. you got talent
You cover is awesome, very creative interpretation! well done.
This song is so incredibly dear to my heart and has been for years. It has strangely reincarnated itself to a melody for my daughter. Xoxo. Beautiful lyrics
thanks a lot for this music. really means a lot.
That was really fucking good. shit. im amazed at how you were still aple to capture all of the angst and emotion that goes into this song
I’m a huge fan of PTW and never could have interpreted this song this way on my acoustic. I tried for years to turn it acoustic. Even better now that are touring again in 2021!
My favorite song ever. This is such a bad ass version.
ommgg i so happy somemade this..and that got to hear it!! i nearly in tears im so happy thank u so much!!! : )
I don't think this is poison the well, I'm pretty sure its a cover. I've had this song on my old mp3 players/phones for years. It had a different band as the artist every time I "legally" downloaded it over the years. Glad to see it up here but the accuracy of the title might be sketchy
Def a cover. Original band is From Pandora
I've been listening to this since it was posted, and this is one of the best god damn songs I've heard.
110K views?
Not sure if that's awesome, or tragic....
Poison The Well, Deftones, Hopesfall, Glassjaw...will always be my favorite bands.
How can you not enjoy this? It's so good
wow...the nostalgia. Maybe a tear too
every time i go for a acoustic jam, i end up searching this video along the line
OMG i never heared this song in acoustic version its just awesome congratulations dude (Y)
this song has to be the most amazing song lyrically i have ever heard
Loved it
Still here listening to this masterpiece
words only love could genuinley inspire. i want to meet this girl.
Really awsome cover
This is awesome, keep up the good work.
Why do your eyes paralyze me
What makes me feel this way
Just carry me away with silence and heartbeats
As rapid thinking about your embrace
And how it makes me feel
I just want to feel this way forever
Sleep on portraits painted as perfect as you
Why have I been given the chance to fly
When I'm not with you I feel lesser alone
I remember your face / imprinted on angels
Your voice as beautiful / as the sounds of waves
Crashing against my heart
Time slows down when you look at me
I'm infatuated with this / infatuated with you
It's so hard for me to understand why
I hadn't found you before don't dull away
Hold my hand
Another great acoustic covers for PTW Nerdy!
DarthEnigma13 Hmm, this is PTW not someone singing their song? So it is not really a cover, since its them singing it?
linda canção! !!
the lyrics to this song are beautiful
well, i still think its a love song. that line "when im not with you i feel lesser alone" could also mean he feels lesser alone because he simply knows that shes there...
and to be infatuated matches the feelings when youre really in love.
Loveloveloooooovelove
this is so great! and your voice reminds me of the singer of muse a little bit btw
Twenty years later and still jamming it
Que recuerdos con esta canción....
Still the best love song
great song
Fellas, if she won't agree to walk down the aisle at your wedding to the original. Maybe, she'll agree to this version!🖤🤷🏾♂️
@djnorge, There are so many amazing things to experience in life before you let it pass by. Before I go, I want to travel the world with a band and I'm not going to let that dream go until the end. Don't let yourself down over that one girl. If she's not the one, you can still always wait for a better one to come around that truly loves you back.

🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is so much different from the original (which melted major fucking face by the way)
This is a tough one to go acoustic with
If your gonna thumb down...... don't. Just go watch something else... shit is so fly
tears came to my eyes thinking of my girl like from nowhere
@myeahok "The Opposite..." was released in 99.
does anybody know if this is an acoustic version played by the band or is this a cover? otherwise it's very beautiful.
@destinationuknown85 when he sings it he sings it like....i feel lesser, alone. not lesser alone
@ofeki23 either it's meant like Even though i'm not with you or like i feel lesser, alone.
that's my interpretation
This song Will be with Me Forever........
@brianreading thats the whole point, its simple and to the point, like if someone WAS speaking to someone and explain how this song isnt poetic?
This always makes me melt every time I hear this. Thanks for this.
POISON THE WELL - NERDY
Por que seus olhos me paralisam
O que me faz sentir assim
Apenas me leve embora com silêncio e batimentos cardíacos
Como pensamento rápido sobre o seu abraço
E como isso me faz sentir
Eu só quero me sentir assim para sempre
Durma em retratos pintados tão perfeitos quanto você
Por que tive a chance de voar
Quando não estou com você, me sinto menos sozinho
Lembro-me de seu rosto / impresso em anjos
bonito / como o som das ondas
Batendo contra o meu coração
O tempo diminui quando você olha para mim
Estou apaixonado por isso / apaixonado por você
É tão difícil para mim entender por que
Eu não tinha te encontrado antes, não se apavore
Segure minha mão
i remember i wrote all these lyrics in a note to my ex boyfriend lol aww :)
I did the same to an ex gf 😂
So fucking beautiful
this rendition is so 1998. Good year
NYC Dec 7th see you soon
@ipseadamovos remembering never " last night alone" off she looks good in red is cool and a song / instrumental by "nodes of ranvier " called - "its going to be ok" maybe like those , check em
@CelebrityMugshot can u imagine what this girl looked like or just how good she was to em.. i want a girl who inspire's me this much!!!!!!
@destinationuknown85 Maybe about a nerdy kid having a major crush on a girl he will never get... I used to listen to this thinking about a girl i loved, but now i don't think it is actually a love song. That line "When I'm NOT with you I feel lesser alone", means he feels more alone with the person than without. Think about it :)
Do Poison the Well just have a backlog of weirdo b-sides. Like this and the Smashing Pumpkin's Today covers?
"É ela se foi, já não estava presente no corpo. Embora ao seu lado, nunca mais seria sua..."
dude this is dope as fuck!
The only other way I see to interpret that still reinforces it being a love song in saying that he only feels like something more when she's with him.
humans get the choice of being honest...
hence why we rule the world..
yet how sad how far we go to not be..
hey good job guy. did you use the electric guitar tabs or did u revised it
This awesome. Is this actually Poison the Well or an acoustic cover by a fan?
my love language
can you tell me where i can download this song???
mm good job suposse
@TheSamoanElvis perfectly said, i dont believe in keyboard warriors, but if that wasn't already pointed out i think i would have just dedicated my life to finding the man behind that nonsense, so thanks for saving the trouble, again well said
What a fuckin version dude, awesome, congrats !!!!
♥♥
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
where can i get this song?
fucking awesome.
@djnorge calm down man, we are who we are for a reason. Don't let that kinda stuff bring you down buddy! In the big picture of life, ur not alone and you also arnt much different than anyone else. No one is perfect man :) not even that girl u liked!
lyrics deep as fuck
This isn't Poison the Well. It's Pandora from FL
@Erika12203 dam i wish i can see it happen. Awsome have fun
time slows down when you look at me.
omg this song has a fucking acoustic version?? SICK
this is legit
Download link?
pretty good, the guitars could be tighter tho
PTW needs to do acoustic versions of all their songs. Fuck.
