This song made me realize the true art of grandson's music, at least to me. All of his songs speak of very dark, but all so very real and serious topics, that I usually view as distant to me, so I do not normally think of them. If I ever do think of them it's usually in a fictional context, since I read a lot of fiction, especially sci-fi and fantasy. grandson's songs bring those topics closer and with that make me realize how real and impactful they actually are, which I think is one of the goals of his music, and I appreciate that.
society has become a bit of a dystopia, like the ones that you find in a lot of young adult novels. However, I think that in order to see it you need to step back from the system and really think about what the actual hell is going on. Grandson speaks a lot about the world we live in in his music and I love him for it 😋
I think way too much about music, how I interpreted it: the guitar solo is the shooting. You hear the clock ticking in the bridge, especially in verse two. In verse two there is another addition to aid to the theory, "when the time comes that he count to ten, ain't nobody ever gon' fuck with him again." The bridge isn't quite ten seconds, but in the moments leading up to a tragedy there is a LOT going through that persons mind and time will seem slower or faster depending on the amount of certain chemicals flooding their systems. "Decided when the lunch bell rings, that he'll sing" the second buildup starts, again a bit more than ten seconds. Given time is slightly altered as the kid makes this decision though, could account for the difference. You hear the "guitar" building, that's just the weapon being readied, the solo being him "singing" or letting loose all the aggression. On top of that the ticking clock blends in more as the lead up builds; eventually it fades almost entirely as the lead up hits the drop, potentially symbolic in a sense of heart rate climbing leading up to the tragedy. The first instance of the solo could be the fantasy of the shooting, the kid thinking that's the only way and glorifying how this will make him "powerful" against his oppressors. The second solo being the actual tragedy happening. The final solo being either a potential wind-down in a possible story of the shooter meeting his end (his hands or authorities): alternately a second wind to the tragedy and the song ends unresolved in the fact that a tragedy occurred that could have been avoided ( barring humans were more decent to each other).
@@aftonfxmily_4252 I remember joking with my friend about kidneys sounding like 'kid's knees'' and started joking about how eyeless jack would switch to knees insead of eating kidneys xD
this is so terrifyingly real and eerie i'm honestly shocked. from the childish la la la to the school bell, this song is so expressing and honestly the lyrics that are trying to justify the actions of a kid, it gives me chills. thank you for this masterpiece! 🙌🏻
I don't think it justifies his actions, it's more like "you had it coming". In a sense that apathy leads to taking matters of self-preservation to one's hands. It certainly explains his actions.
@@byronarnaoutoglou8425 i think it depends on which line you're inspecting. for me there are lines which resemble to the ones you hear in the news or read in the newspapers and which are usually in the defense of the person, but i agree with you regarding the rest of the lyrics.
Roberta Angyal i think it’s more of an opposite from “thoughts and prayers” like you have one from the public’s perspective and now you have one from the school shooters perspective yunno?
The lyrics remind me more of Stick Up. It’s somewhat the same scenario, instead of robbing a bank, it’s a child shooting up the school. It has the same method of explaining the person’s mindset and life story between the chorus.
I think grandson missed a golden opportunity to include some gunshot sounds in the drop. Would be very fitting and accentuate the eerie side of the song : )
my counselor asked for my favorite song to make a playlist for our virtual halloween event, now i'm in a google meet with my parents and the administrators :DD
You realize that all of the violence and school shootings would be avoided if someone actually cared. The only reason why violence occurs is because of apathy. Not only are the children apathetic to the individual's feelings, the adults are too, and this is absolutely destructive. This is what actually destroys us: our carelessness.
D Sauce Ya that pretty much how everyone feels I’m glad that’s made it this far and want to see him go so much further I can’t wait to see what he does next
I don’t know a single guy who listens to grandson and it’s so sad because everybody who listens to grandson is PERFECT Some guy like that would be perfect for me ugh
I’ve thought of shooting up my school a few times because of bullying and my family issues, but eventually made a few friends, and opened up. They supported me fully and one of them were basically a therapist to me. I was always known as the quiet and nice kid, but now I’m loud and obnoxious, which makes me get bullied more, but it has gone down since then, and is just verbal, not physical. My grades have also gone up, my mom left my dad, which made me so happy and less stressed. He’d physically and mentally abuse me, and sometimes my mom, but I’d always interfere before he hit her, but sometimes I wasn’t there. My life has gotten better, but for some people this is not the case. I wish everyone luck. And in case anyone was wondering, I’m 15, and it has been a few months since all that happened.
I’m really happy for you, that you’re doing better now man. You’ve gotta be a really strong person to get through all of that, never forget that. I’m also sorry if this sounded hella cheesy.
i like the fact that grandson's type of music is about real life things people think about and have experienced so it makes a original story which you can easly know
This song helped me so much It ment I could talk to my friends about how I felt cause I was suffering from depression and mild PTSD from my younger life Thanks grandson for giving me a voice again
If Grandson is reading this, I hope you know how much you mean to me. You have helped get me through a really rough time in my life and this song in particular helped me realize that some people have it worse than I do. Grandson, you are a magnificent being. Keep creating music!
I absolutely am loving Vol. 2, I thought Vol. 1 was great, but this? Holy shit man! Please keep this coming?? Cause I found the next 5 songs I'll listen to on repeat
I love it man. Strong lyrics like always! The fact of bullying is the worst, I have experienced that for 3 years when I was in Spain( I'm from Romania), highschool, 11 in 2011 years old, me vs the world. A lot of big guys insulting me for everything, my face, my legs, eyes, ears, accent, nationality, they have punched me sometimes and one time one of them pointed me with a knife at my throat. One day I punched a guy who insulted the name of my mother. Since that day I try to avoid violence everytime I can. Everyday was a pain inside my head, but I have passed through. Maybe the lyrics are written to an extreme situation, but the meaning ilustrates it all. Well done guys! Big hug for you and the rest of us who are there, fighting each day. P.S: I'm in love with your songs since the beggining :)
One time a kid had annoyed for so long I got so angry I chased and without knowing I can’t even remember this part I apparently choked another girl(there was no actual harm done) and it took like 3 kids to bring me to a complete stop
Geox Neox I feel you dude I was like you too I didn’t want violence but sometimes it’s the only choice but calming yourself and not falling for their traps will make you an overall stronger person
As a quiet kid myself, I get the parts about monsters in his head but I feel really bad for people that go along with the rest of the song. I think, maybe this is just for me but when people get to know me I’m a great guy to be friends with, I’m just a hardcore introvert with too many thoughts.
A lil TW for my comment here But yeah Im one of those who relate to basically the entire song. Lets just say, Ive lost most of my friends cuz of bullying, got bullied myself from strangers I literally only passed by and now cant even get myself to go to a 'normal' school. Im recovering now but now I have zero tolerance for bullying and tend to get more aggresive about that topic. I can be a really understanding friend to some, but for bullies, I just immediately have the urge to do something against it, no matter the cost. (Dont worry yall I havent done anything yet but the urge can be difficult to manage And sry for venting here if theres any issue with that comment, I can edit it

If you notice there's a ticking clock in the background it is especially prominent in the chorus and for me, that adds a whole new level of creepy-ness

Hey, you. Yeah, you. You probably already saw "Read More" and gave up reading this. Well, you can leave if you want to. Oh, decided to stick around? Thank you. See, maybe you're going through a lot right now. Or maybe you're alright. But no one can be happy all the time. So at some point you were sad. And that's okay. Everyone gets sad. So, if you feel like crying, just do it. If anyone judges you, well, f*ck them. You have the right to cry. While sometimes it seems like it only makes things worse, it actually helps. It helps because those bad feelings are no longer inside you. And if it does nothing, that's okay too. Don't feel bad about yourself. You're perfect. You're perfect because in fact, no one is perfect. So actually, everyone is perfect. Okay, maybe you got a little confused over there. But even the most perfect of humans has their imperfections. Maybe you woke up today and thought living is just eternal torture. Yeah, we all had that thought. Truth is, life can be anything, it really depends how you see it. So, you can see hard times as torture, or you can see them as a challenge that you have to overcome yourself. Because nothing feels better than beating a challenge. And I know you can do it. Anyone can. You just have to be patient. Of course that won't be easy. But great satisfaction does not come with easy challenges. Okay, so maybe you're thinking right now "oh, this is one of those 'you're special' texts, they don't work, I'm leaving". Well, this kind of is a text to show you're special, but also is to show that self-depreciation is a part of life. And I've been there. I know how it is to feel like you don't belong in this world. Like you have no real friends, or your family doesn't support you. It is awful. But it helped me. Because now I know, that just saying "you're important to someone" isn't enough. To prove a theory, one needs proof. So here I am. Writing this little message. It was something I wrote because I felt like some of you might need a similar helping hand. And again, if you read all of this, you made my day happier. Like, way happier. I will be forever grateful. (oh, and you're special
This song is really really good. I love it. All those details in it. Like the ticking of a clock, ringing of a school bel, that little lalalala like it's another story and in US it kinda is. I am from Czechia and thankfully we don't have such problems but the song is super cool.

I think way too much about music, how I interpreted it: the guitar solo is the shooting. You hear the clock ticking in the bridge, especially in verse two. In verse two there is another addition to aid to the theory, "when the time comes that he count to ten, ain't nobody ever gon' fuck with him again." The bridge isn't quite ten seconds, but in the moments leading up to a tragedy there is a LOT going through that persons mind and time will seem slower or faster depending on the amount of certain chemicals flooding their systems. "Decided when the lunch bell rings, that he'll sing" the second buildup starts, again a bit more than ten seconds. Given time is slightly altered as the kid makes this decision though, could account for the difference. You hear the "guitar" building, that's just the weapon being readied, the solo being him "singing" or letting loose all the aggression.
On top of that the ticking clock blends in more as the lead up builds; eventually it fades almost entirely as the lead up hits the drop, potentially symbolic in a sense of heart rate climbing leading up to the tragedy. The first instance of the solo could be the fantasy of the shooting, the kid thinking that's the only way and glorifying how this will make him "powerful" against his oppressors. The second solo being the actual tragedy happening. The final solo being either a potential wind-down in a possible story of the shooter meeting his end (his hands or authorities): alternately a second wind to the tragedy and the song ends unresolved in the fact that a tragedy occurred that could have been avoided ( barring humans were more decent to each other).

If Grandson is reading this, I hope you know how much you mean to me. You have helped get me through a really rough time in my life and this song in particular helped me realize that some people have it worse than I do. Grandson, you are a magnificent being. Keep creating music!

Nigg what
I love the processing on his vocals.
he protecc, he attacc, but most importantly, his father never bothered to ascc
This is underrated. TOO underrated. Great music fam!
The beat drop gave me chills, such a great song wow!
I love it man. Strong lyrics like always! The fact of bullying is the worst, I have experienced that for 3 years when I was in Spain( I'm from Romania), highschool, 11 in 2011 years old, me vs the world. A lot of big guys insulting me for everything, my face, my legs, eyes, ears, accent, nationality, they have punched me sometimes and one time one of them pointed me with a knife at my throat. One day I punched a guy who insulted the name of my mother. Since that day I try to avoid violence everytime I can. Everyday was a pain inside my head, but I have passed through. Maybe the lyrics are written to an extreme situation, but the meaning ilustrates it all. Well done guys! Big hug for you and the rest of us who are there, fighting each day.
P.S: I'm in love with your songs since the beggining :)
One time a kid had annoyed for so long I got so angry I chased and without knowing I can’t even remember this part I apparently choked another girl(there was no actual harm done) and it took like 3 kids to bring me to a complete stop
Geox Neox I feel you dude I was like you too
I didn’t want violence but sometimes it’s the only choice but calming yourself and not falling for their traps will make you an overall stronger person
@@nightmare8147 I agreed with that mate
@Jacob Coffey Yah I learned that too
@Theodore Nash feels bad man...
As a quiet kid myself, I get the parts about monsters in his head but I feel really bad for people that go along with the rest of the song. I think, maybe this is just for me but when people get to know me I’m a great guy to be friends with, I’m just a hardcore introvert with too many thoughts.
A lil TW for my comment here
But yeah Im one of those who relate to basically the entire song. Lets just say, Ive lost most of my friends cuz of bullying, got bullied myself from strangers I literally only passed by and now cant even get myself to go to a 'normal' school. Im recovering now but now I have zero tolerance for bullying and tend to get more aggresive about that topic. I can be a really understanding friend to some, but for bullies, I just immediately have the urge to do something against it, no matter the cost. (Dont worry yall I havent done anything yet but the urge can be difficult to manage
And sry for venting here if theres any issue with that comment, I can edit it
Darkside x Pumped up kicks

The kid has got a darkside
Best believe it
Push too far you'll see
The kid has got a darkside
Back against the wall
La la la la la
The kid has got a darkside
Best believe it’s the last trick up his sleeve
The kid has got a darkside
That you don't wanna meet at all
They always picked on him in the class
He would wake up with anxiety attacks
So he put a semi-automatic on his back
He got murder in his eyes
He wore the silence like a mask
Now he's making up for all the violence in his past
Took it from his father
Who never bothered to ask
What his son had on his mind
The kid has got a darkside
Best believe it
Push too far you’ll see
The kid has got a darkside
Back against the wall

La la la la la
He never went to check under his bed
He was living with the monsters in his head
Sick of getting beat up
He listened, what they said
Told him do some very bad things
And when the time comes
That he count to ten
Ain't nobody ever gon' fuck with him again
Feeling all alone, it was him against them
Decided when the lunch bell rings
That he'll sing
The kid has got a darkside
Best believe it
Push too far you'll see

hahahaha luags
This just made my entire day. Loved it ✖✖
Your profile pic tho
You have good music taste !
Why can't I find these black crosses
FINALLYYY I FOUND THIS SONG OMG THIS WAS MY FAVORITEEE AS A KID
Listen to that guitar sing and Jordan’s/Grandson’s reaction to the guitar! It gets me every time.
Every time I hear a new song from Grandson I'm so excited! They just keep getting better and better!!! Been listening to this song on repeat all day
Same! I especially like Overdose and Blood // Water. Bury Me Face Down is also a good one.
school: “what music should we listen to?”
Everyone in the class: “MARY DID YOU KNOW”
Me: “DARKSIDE!!!”
The FBI: “we have another one guys”
This is 1 of MANY of my favorite songs made by Grandson keep it up
Dope!
First reply
@@thomyorkemybeloved Why?
oh god, this is the best start of my morning.
I adore your songs and your voice, continue in the same spirit ..
Omg at the end of the school bells you can hear the bell transition into screams, that's honestly a really good touch
Timestamp?
@@Arcrushh there really isn't a timestamp but just listen for the bell rings :)
@@sirnullus ok thx even after 1 year someone replies omg

Me: *humming along to the song*
My brain: hm this person sounds like me-
The shadow in the corner of my room: y e a h
Wtf?
remember?
My GRANDSON deserves to hear this song to!
If you notice there's a ticking clock in the background it is especially prominent in the chorus and for me, that adds a whole new level of creepy-ness
This song makes me feel badass and motivated to write some dark shit(i have a large passion for writing and spend a lot of time on it)
Grandson never makes bad songs
thoughts& prayers 2.0

Feevr Yeets are you kidding me the one time I actually click on those and I get that
I catch myself singing this all the time. I always accidentally sing it at school while im walking to class and i always get some concerned stares lol. But i love this song. There is no artist i like to listen to more than grandson
i accidentally played this out loud in my maths class and my teacher was like "anna oU-"
Oh no if your the resident quiet kid then everyone is in deep shit

My favorite songs from grandson.
1:blood//water
2:darkside
3:overdose: ]
Try WWIII, Identity, Apologize, despicable and 6:00
@CATstudios 2xx2x me too!!! they are such good songs!!
The bass drop is LEGENDARY!!!
This song makes me feel powerful I love it
WOW. I was not prepared for those epic bass drops! Awesome!
Hey, you.
Yeah, you.
You probably already saw "Read More" and gave up reading this.
Well, you can leave if you want to.
Oh, decided to stick around? Thank you.
See, maybe you're going through a lot right now. Or maybe you're alright. But no one can be happy all the time. So at some point you were sad. And that's okay. Everyone gets sad. So, if you feel like crying, just do it. If anyone judges you, well, f*ck them. You have the right to cry. While sometimes it seems like it only makes things worse, it actually helps. It helps because those bad feelings are no longer inside you.
And if it does nothing, that's okay too. Don't feel bad about yourself. You're perfect. You're perfect because in fact, no one is perfect. So actually, everyone is perfect. Okay, maybe you got a little confused over there. But even the most perfect of humans has their imperfections.
Maybe you woke up today and thought living is just eternal torture. Yeah, we all had that thought. Truth is, life can be anything, it really depends how you see it. So, you can see hard times as torture, or you can see them as a challenge that you have to overcome yourself. Because nothing feels better than beating a challenge. And I know you can do it. Anyone can. You just have to be patient. Of course that won't be easy. But great satisfaction does not come with easy challenges.
Okay, so maybe you're thinking right now "oh, this is one of those 'you're special' texts, they don't work, I'm leaving". Well, this kind of is a text to show you're special, but also is to show that self-depreciation is a part of life. And I've been there. I know how it is to feel like you don't belong in this world. Like you have no real friends, or your family doesn't support you. It is awful. But it helped me. Because now I know, that just saying "you're important to someone" isn't enough. To prove a theory, one needs proof.
So here I am. Writing this little message. It was something I wrote because I felt like some of you might need a similar helping hand.
And again, if you read all of this, you made my day happier. Like, way happier. I will be forever grateful.
(oh, and you're special
Kythra Kel I read everything and so true
@@simonhaupt9282 Thank you for reading. I hope it wasn't a waste of your precious time.
Good, we need more of you.
this is the most beautiful and deep comment I've ever seen. Thank you so much for writing this, it made my day a lot better

This song came out on my birthday

This song is really really good. I love it. All those details in it. Like the ticking of a clock, ringing of a school bel, that little lalalala like it's another story and in US it kinda is.
I am from Czechia and thankfully we don't have such problems but the song is super cool.
OMG YOU SONG OMG OMLLLLLL I CAN'T TALK
