    This song brought tears to my eyes. I really cant describe in words how much it can mean to so many people like myself and just with how impacting the entire video and tone is set, I'm probably not the only one who cried after listening to this. Thank you again for an amazing song Citizen Soldier

      It does, doesn't it?! I've been keeping up hope for so long, but it's only been getting worse.. sometimes I just wonder why keep fighting if nothing changes. In the song it says "I'm terrified that I won't make it through the night", to me it's more like I'm terrified that I WILL make it through the night, because that'd mean I'd have to fight another day and at this point I'm just tired of fighting.. nothing ever changes and it's so exhausting

      Ya that line hits home as I have felt like an emotional reck a lot lately it’s Been a hard struggle, things in real life are never as simple as they seem it’s always bound to be complicated by something. And it’s hard to recover when life does throw a curve ball.

      So damn true feels like no matter how much kindness i give to others they just push me aside and take it all for granted it's not that I'm bothered if I had it my way I'd suffer for the sake of anyone I place everyone else over my life and it's had it's... Drawbacks in my health and has almost killed me more than once yet no one seems to see and continues to treat me like nothing even though I try so hard to just be kind and accepted yet I feel like it's wrong to just want some acknowledgement and kindness back sometimes I lay awake crying wishing someone would just give me a hug and say keep fighting and yet I instead must resort to tricking myself to believe in hopeless miracles and a sunrise that will never show and all for what 😔
      Sorry for the depressing life story these songs just make me open up to anyone it's nice to have music that makes me feel like this but amazing song much love to citizen soldier man every time I'm blow away and every time I shed a tear 🖤🖤

    As a person with Chronic Depression and a pessimist view on so many things, Your songs have really hit a spot I can't explain to people, sometimes words just can't explain.
    Those who need help do not be afraid to seek it out, talk to someone, rant your heart out and never be afraid to sound like you are 'Complaining' or 'Whining' because you aren't. I hope everyone here finds the solace and comfort they damn well deserve.

    Someone asked me why I always listened to depressing music, I had to explain that's there's a difference between depressing music and music for depression. If you're already depressed then relating to someone else can be critical. It's a reminder that nobody is ever really alone, because out there somewhere is someone who can relate, who knows what it's like.

    This has got to be one of my favorite CS songs to date. The music, the lyrics, everything is phenomenal. “Does hope hurt more than giving up?” is the line that made me emotional every time I heard it in the chorus. Cause that’s something I struggle with. Sometimes hoping for something better and it just seeming and continuing to be bleak for so long, takes a toll on you. And then eventually that hope becomes the pain and hurt that we struggle with. Thank you for this amazing song.

    [Lyrics]
    Stop telling me that it's okay like it's gonna get better
    I've heard every damn cliché, been stuck here forever
    In my own head I'm a prisoner
    And you're not much of a listener
    I have always been this way
    Can't outrun the pouring rain
    I'm so sick of waiting on the sun
    My silver lining never comes
    So sick of feeling not enough
    Does hope hurt more than giving up?
    I know that I can't be the only one
    Sick of waiting on the sun
    Stop telling me that there's a light at the end of the tunnel
    Evеry time I believе those words it's nothing but trouble
    I hate to sound so cynical
    But I'm done chasing miracles
    This fall it ain't worth the climb
    Glass half empty all the time
    I'm so sick of waiting on the sun
    My silver lining never comes
    So sick of feeling not enough
    Does hope hurt more than giving up?
    I know that I can't be the only one
    Give me a reason
    I should even be alive
    Help me believe that
    Tomorrow's even worth the fight
    I must confess, I'm terrified
    That I won't make it through the night
    Wish I could change my mind
    I'm so sick of waiting on the sun
    My silver lining never comes
    So sick of feeling not enough
    Does hope hurt more than giving up?
    I know that I can't be the only one
    Sick of waiting on the sun

    I hate how much this speaks to me, how much I know it speaks to others, the fact that so many of us just suffer like this all the time is just to much to comprehend, and there you are... showing us we are not alone... that there are others who care... who know what it's like.. your reaching out to so many hurting souls with this music and forcing us to feel what we keep hidden, making the tears fall that need to flow... thank you.. some days this music is the only thing that keeps me going.. I hate that this made me cry

    If I wasn’t as energetic now and was as numb as I used to be I would have crying and fallen asleep afterwards. The best thing about my emotions from this song is knowing the path I took and from where I am to where I was and the journey I’ve had.
    Thank you Citizen soldier for another song full of emotion and memories.
    Everyone stay safe, stay healthy and most of all stay happy and hopeful. Time is a bitch but also the prime of life.

    I gave up on the cause and I'm ashamed. I couldn't do it. The hours,the trauma. I had so many of my own demons. I fell hard. Kept falling. Had to take care of me. I couldn't save anyone or help. I was too scared and saw too much. I dunno how to erase all this pain. You are probably the only one who may get it. I just stumbled on your music. I definitely relate.

    I’ve had a lot of moments when I’d miss the numbness from when I was suicidal, because when you’re numb to everything then the people around you can’t hurt you, if you’re at rock bottom at least no one can drag you down! It’s only when you let joy and hope into your life that you can feel the pain of a broken heart, and this song perfectly describes that feeling!

    “My silver lining never comes”
    “Does hope hurt more than giving up?”
    You have no idea how much I relate to these two lyrics. I always told myself that there was a silver lining because there had to be, right? Because if there wasn’t I just couldn’t deal with that. It wouldn’t make sense if there wasn’t. But it never came. And hoping that it would at some point was just so painful that I stopped. Accepting it would always be this way and expecting it hurt less than this blind faith for something that I’ve come to find will never happen.

    I felt this song so deeply within me. I suffer from bipolar and depression. I can be told a million times that I'm not sick because everything looks fine on the outside but nobody really understands the war inside my head I go through on a daily basis with a mental illness. The pain is Neverending and always will be there. I'm damaged since I was raised in an orphanage til I was 2yrs old. That explains it all. Nothing more to say. God bless

    Truly just beautiful. This song is so relatable and it makes me think of times in life when no one wanted to understand my pain and people just ignore me for who I am as a person and they gossip about me behind my back the most crude things. I believed the lie that I was fighting alone my entire life and it was up to me to make a name for myself and no one cares for who I am. However, I learned an overwhelming fact in life and this made me cry more than I ever have in my life. I am not seeking to convert someone right now to Christianty but this is just my story and something is written on my heart to write this for anyone who is reading this. As a believer in Christ this fact that brought me to tears is that I don't have to fight alone anymore and I am loved more than I would ever know and my life is precious. All I have to say is if there is anyone who is hurt in life and carries heavy burdens there is a man who can take those burdens and put them on himself for you cause He truly loves you more than the world would ever but you have to repent and trust in Jesus alone to be saved. The world forgets you once you are gone but God will never forget you cause He loves you and forgives you as long as you forgive yourself. I know I wrote a bit much but if there is anyone who is in pain or hurt just remember you are not alone and remember this as well that those weaknesses you have is what makes you strong and unique. - For when I am weak then I am strong. - (John 3:16 NLT & 2 Corinthians 12:8-10 NLT.) 🙏👑
