It's 8 AM, this Hell I'm in
Seems I've crossed the line again
For being nothing more than who I am
So break my bones and throw your stones
We all know that life ain't fair
But there is more of us, we're everywhere
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don't hurt
Can you hear me?
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
You're a bully
Think it through, you can't undo
Whenever I see black and blue
I feel the past, I share the bruise
With everyone who's come and gone
My head is clear, my voice is strong, now I'm right here to right the wrong
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don't hurt
Can you hear me?
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
You're a bully
(Solo)
It's 8 AM, the Hell I'm in!
Your voice is strong, now right the wrong!
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don't hurt
Can you hear me?
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
You're a bully
All you'll ever be is a fading memory of a bully
Make another joke while they hang another rope, so lonely
Push them to the dirt till the words don't hurt
Can you hear me?
No one's gonna cry on the very day you die
You're a bully
We don't have to take this, back against the wall
We don't have to take this, we can end it all (x4)
Nothing better than showing someone who thinks he's superior just how inferior they actually are. Great song
Thunder cod legend
COME ON INNNNN
I’m superior your too soft prob got a pussy too stay hard
Great minds think alike.... thank you for saying what I think just can't get it out......🎭
Wasn't expecting to see Thunder here of all places. I used to watch your channel like 9 years ago! C4 sandwiches for days, heh.
If more bands wrote music with meaning like this, the world would be so much better off!!! Tip my hat to Shinedown for this, great job!!
Rock haters say this genre doesn't have music that is relatable well if they actually LISTEN then they will see rock has plenty of songs that we can relate to. Like this one. Plenty of people grew up with bully problems in school. Myself included.
Ashlee Johnson Usually when people hear the word "rock" they would associate it with mindless screaming. But you're right, if they just listened to it they would hear what it actually is.
+Justin Brown most bands that growl or scream typically are extremely talented
So true
+Shane Woody I agree completely the guy from stone sour screams in slipknot and sings in stone sour plus in every good rock band there's a great drummer and great guitar player
+Ashlee Johnson rock music has more positive messages in it than country i find country depressing
Dear BULLY,
I am alive, and well. You've made me stronger, you taught me that children are raised to not accept difference. I am PROUD to be different, I am PROUD to be who I am.
Regards, the bullied.
+Loïs Jotry BRAVO I FEEL YOU.
Well Said!!!
+Loïs Jotry inspiration
-tear rolls down face- #inspirational ☺💟
Thank you guys! Stay positive... And weird, always. ;)
I got bullied every single day throughout high school. It was hell... But, I made it, and so can you. Don't let anyone define your worth.
This comment speaks truth
Who cares for the bullies, a person's worth is not made by others. It doesn't matter if what you do, say, or look like is good enough for someone else. Love yourself for who you are
You might've gone through it well. And I have high respects for you. But there are some days that hell will just be a little too much. Bullying goes for no limits these days. Literally killing people because they caused you to feel some type of way. Man! I don't understand life anymore. I grew up as a kid not noticing anyone was being hurt or threatened around me. But once I grow up, and once you see the true colors of N.Y. Then you'll just sit back, and thank god you're not there. N.Y is not into the whole bullying bull shit because here we take shit seriously... a little too seriously. To make things end up as either both are dead or one dies.
+Jared Eskridge everyone reacts differently people who been threw alot can take alot prissy bitches cant take anything and will become sucidal like i said people who have been threw it can take and dish it right back and others cant defend themselves without help and thats where we come in
well put
It's annoying how schools say they're against bullying and have all these campaigns and stuff against bullying, but when somebody stand up to their bully (Physically) they suspend them. I wish I would of stood up to my bullies back in middle and high school :/ oh well, can't look back now. Can't fight while in college xD.
I had to get pulled out of public school and went to online cause I get getting bullied, well more like I get standing up for myself and my school kept suspending me.
Schools want you to not physically stand up to a bully they’d rather you verbally standup to a bully however if they throw a punch well I think we all know what to do next. Self defense is very important against a bully but that’s only when verbally standing up fails which in some cases it does.
@@arcadeguy781 sad thing is even if you defend you self in schools nowadays they will still suspend you.
@@devinespinoza9124 you can sue the school for protecting a bully they are supposed to prevent bullying but they are supporting bullying by protecting the bully and you can sue the school for that
I sued my school for protecting a bully and i damn near got the school shutdown i had my lawyer get the video taps of the bully and me and got the asshole expelled and the school was put in a lot of hot water now my school reviews the camera recordings to who the offender is now before takeing a side 😆
Anyone else feel a surge of power while listening to this song?
IVE GOT THE POWER
+Caleb Jacobson Yes.
"There is no good and evil, there is only power, and those who weak to seek it"
yes and energy!
thats the point of this music, is to hype you up to change something thats is getting you down..
I actually showed my teacher this song on bully awareness week at school and she played it literally every day to get it into peoples heads. The words here are so powerful and I hope every bully who hears this takes it as a reality check.
Been bullied all my life. This song gives me chills.
Aww :(
Just remember those whose bully you are the ones who also envy you. They want something you have but they cant have it.
Same here
Im so sorry my mom was bullied her whole life to!!
too*
“People that make fun of other people’s lives, don’t deserve their own” those are the words I live by
Just... don't unlive anyone ok?!
There’s a guy who used to be my friend at work and the past few months he’s been nothing but a rude, disrespectful, immature asshole and I’m sick of it. Thanks for this song I think today is the day I show him I’ve had enough.
This world would be a lot better without bullies.
yes it would be
Amen.
+DraconiC91 But then this song wouldn't exist.
Like USA world politic for example.
I was bullied when I was younger, and this is the song that got me through the day...
They need to play this through the loudspeaker at my middle school. now.
Caitlyn Coble SFM samw
lol wish I could see that XDXDXD
Caitlyn Coble SFM
I see you're a fan of Erin Hunter. :P
they really should
If they did that while I was in school, I would of never of gone to class lol
I hate when people say "suicide is for the weak" I hate it because my friend Ivy hung herself in her backyard and she was one if the strongest people I knew. She put up with so much shit from people everyday and she did it with a smile, but when she got home she would cry and cry, but it didn't stop there she got to the point where she started cutting herself and then everyone made fun of her for that too. Suicide isn't for the weak, it's for people who have had enough of getting called names, getting hit, pushed, punched. Suicide isn't the right thing to do but it's not "weak" the weak people are the ones who feel the need to bring someone else down because they hate themselves.
No it's not weak..The weak are the ones who judge them for what they did. Suicide also isn't for people who have had enough of all the things you said because there are suicides out there where people never could understand the reasons why they did it..Especially when it's a person who wasn't bullied.
With the shit I've had to deal with I'll take getting my ass beat and made fun of any day.
Erin Foote THANK YOU
even though the bully stopped i could have started doing the self killing stuff if it wasent for scouts
gillecroisd 92 - She didn't owe her life to anyone but herself. It is sad that she took her own life, causing her loved ones to feel pain, but her life was her decision. Some people think that expressing their emotions to others is weak. A lot of the time suicidal people don't want to express their feelings because they're convinced that their feelings would only be a bother and it would be better to put on a smile. She wasn't selfish and she wasn't weak. She was probably convinced that her feelings didn't matter and that she had to deal with her problem by herself. Also, just because she had loved ones, doesn't mean that she felt any less alone. She might have known that people could help her but people can be abused to a point where they feel like no one can help them. I think it is selfish to believe that someone should stay alive for your sake. It is selfish to make suicidal people feel guilty for be unhappy. Your mindset is harmful.
This song ALWAYS sent chills down my spine. It's just the voice of the kids... it gives me memories...
I was bullied in elementary and middle school. It hurt me and made me become so weak and depressed. I'm a junior now and anyone that bullies me, gets there ass beat. I took my stand now and will not be the weak or joke to anyone .
And school saw a problem with it didn't they? Suspended you for Sticking up for yourself I've been in a fair share of fights never started one but always finished em been suspended for everyone
Bullies have no idea what they do to people. I wish bullies knew how it feels to be chewed up and spat out like they're nothing but another piece of trash that no one cares about. This song was meant to help kids stand up to those who are pushing them down. But in my mind a bully acts the way he does for a reason, but he doesn't need to express his anger out on those who are minding their own business.
Ace Ascension your comment inspired me to stand up for myself and others from bullies 🙂😇 bless ur soul n have a great day
Darian Plisgan best of luck, bud. Keep us posted so we know you're ok.
Sometimes the bullies are the bullied. The ones with rough homes or neglected with only toys from mommy and daddy to show they’re “loved” and nothing of substance. And some are just idiots who are immature and don’t understand consequences. It’s both
I love how this song states clearly one of the greatest truths of the universe: Bullies suck and nothing will ever justify the suffering they cause.
This song is awesome! Shinedown is fucking awesome.
No.... it's really not. It's saying that bullies are incapable of change and no one will cry when they are dead. That's not ok
@@samanthadegroot7749 You have to tell the bullies to quit somehow... Sometimes the hardest hit is the one they need. What goes around comes around.
@@samanthadegroot7749 That's a very ironic message this song is giving us.
AidenPlayz2004 ok,fair, but like, this song isnt talking to bullies, its grown men singing about how they want everyone whos ever bullied anyone to die alone. this type of message isnt helping anyone in long run.
CaptanGlitter65 because despite shinedownn being full of shit, they make really catchy music
I almost committed suicide from being bullied... I realized how great of a person I was and pulled through my deep depression, but it still hurts. I just think of how many people said bad stuff about Jesus when he walked the earth and he was perfect so no matter how you are or who you are or anything, you're still gonna have haters. Just remember that you're a wonderful person. Never give up. Never give in. Never let anyone walk all over you.
Jesus doesn't exist lol
@@GeGe-fg3hx you're wrong
@@GeGe-fg3hx Let people believe what they want.
Beating em up seems to work. For 2 days.
The worst kind of bullying is when your own family is the one doing it
"push um to the dirt till the words don't hurt, do you hear me" shinedown is beautiful
This is so true. Bully victims usually become bullies. I used to get picked on in grade school, now in high school, I am the bully. I was just so sick and tired of getting bullied the only resort I had was to bully other people. After this song, it's come clear to me that It sucks. I stopped now.
Good
Demented Wafflez thats good. I get bullied alot still but i am not going to become one
+Demented Wafflez If I could make a suggestion for you, when I was younger I got bullied a lot. So I learned how to fight. By the time I got to high school guess who was there to meet me? All of my bullies. Which was convenient. I hunted them all down one by one and we fought. I kicked their shit in. Granted I was suspended for a little while but they never bothered me again I'll tell you that. Totally worth it. So if you've got the strength to bully others, why not do it towards your bullies should you ever encounter them again. Just a suggestion, its what I did.
Justin Brown Thanks man.
+Emma Hoffman me either...not even if i am beaten bloody again.....:-(
“Make another joke while they hang another rope” that part KILLS ME EVERY TIME!!
There was a guy who bullied me since I was 10. He relentlessly harrassed me with threats and dirty looks, and always made me feel scared. He damaged my confidence. He damaged my self esteem. He threw rocks at me one time, and even at my house. Until I was 14, I finally stood up to him. I finally *pushed him to the dirt till the words didn't hurt* He hasn't bothered me since. I'm now 18. Please don't ever be afraid to stand up to these bullies. They may come across scary, but once you show them your true strength, they'll be the one's afraid of you. ❤
Great song. People who bully are stupid. I was bullied and attempted suicide but thankfully I'm still here. I hope bullying stops someday.
I don't it will...
bullied for adhd? weird thing to bully someone over
Bullies aren't technically stupid, but they probably have a morbid way of thinking to think that bullying will solve their problems. Trust me, understanding both sides of the problem helps you move on a lot.
@@MyGoatFloats oh trust me.. here everyone Says people with adhd are stupid and reckless, but actually we people with Adhd are much better than they say..
@@samanthadegroot7749 bullies pick on people they perceive as weaker to save their pathetic self esteems...simple as that....but it doesn't last you always have to keep someone down to make yourself feel good or at least okay.....so understanding the problem does not mean I empathsize or condone what they do....I used to be one at home with my brother then I experienced some bullying in school I had so much anger in me I ended up in a fist fight a few weeks ago at some bar because he said I could beat your ass too punk....point is bullies are short sighted and that makes them dumb and weak inside....that's my two cents at least take it for what that's worth....
Every school should play this in their morning assembly.
Drocell Keinz: Exactly what I said the first time I heard this!
YES!!!
@Caitlyn Appel isn't that song about school shootings
Wait your schools have morning assemblies?
Damn..
Yes!
There was a 15 year old boy in franklin n.c that took his own life because he was told he was nobody, that he was a nobody and he was bullied and picked on all through school. 15 yrs old and now his life is over because he didn't feel the need to live anymore. i think this song speaks alot and hope one day the bullying pandemic we have in this world will be cured. great song.
Stand up for your children and for yourself against bullies. Stand strong and know that you are all in my heart!
The moment you've begun underestimated me, you've sunk low enough for Devil himself to grab your ankles.
Good one (Y)
I think you messed up your grammar there
I was bullied as a child all through primary school and most of middle school. One day I just snapped and shoved one of my bullies into a wall, very hard. I always detested needless violence but they taught me that people do not listen to anything else. So I became violent towards bullies. I don't like how it made me but I don't regret it either. I will always react violently towards any kind of bullying, regardless of who does it. I did the same to female bullies who went out of their way to spread nasty rumors about me and abuse me in other ways.
I regret that all this made me into a shittier person than I could've been, but I don't regret standing up for myself. Nevermind the consequences: ALWAYS fight back. Throw stuff, pick up a chair and shout. Make a scene. MAKE A POINT that bullying is wrong and if nobody will help, you'll help yourself.
YEAH!!!
yah this is literally my point of view on bullying. Luckily i've never been bullied but my younger sister got picked on and so i started cussing out those horrible girls and they never bothered my sister again and i saw them again but they don't remember me
I feel you.
ElvenAngel that's great and all but at my high school it's a felony on the people who fight at school
ElvenAngel that is so true
That must be tough, sorry for you're loss. And for all those people who have been through bully experiences, hang in there. There is always someone that loves you. Just ignore and block away haters and focus on the good things in life. Remember that most people who take pain on to others, have problems of their own.
Violence, in the words of most its never the answer but to those who were bullied... we had no real choice. I was picked on from elementry to middle school. Finally broke a kids nose in 7th grade to show I was no push over.
Needless to say it didn't feel good. I cried shortly after because I felt like a monster. Nothing feels worse than being like all those bullies. I just wish one day we can change the youth so that kids dont have to go through hell like us.
you don't need to be a big dude to stop bullying. I'm 140 pounds and I've backed up my friends that were getting bullied multiple times. carry yourself with pride and cowards will fear you because you have something they lack: respect.
Michael Simpson your mind has to be tough strong and brutal to pull that off
This is probably one of the best songs for riding a motorbike fast around corners. Absolutely amazing
I love Shinedown, and I love how they are not afraid to make their voice heard
I never acknowledged my bullies, I turned my back on them and walked away. Never gave them the satisfaction of a fight with me. Best thing I ever did. Everybody that tried to bully me ended up becoming felons.
Peace to all and I would love to say this song is a truth for anyone and everyone who no matter what the situation a bully is a bully and if we stand strong enough is the stand. God bless all of us in America!!!
so many feelings, it's like every word shows every tear and bruise i was given.
Their entire album rocks!!! But i will never forget when I first heard this song. It brought back bad memories and it really pumped me up to not take it anymore and stand up for myself!!
I had a bully once one day I decided I had, had enough so I punched his teeth in let's just say I don't have a bully anymore
If only I could do that. I would probably get suspended
+Cole Thornton Hey man, If he stops....It will be worth getting suspended
yasss
Hell yeah man //
Hell yes.
I was bullied for yrs this song is something that I wish could have come out in that time. love it
So, I'm listening to this song for the first time here, I'm liking it. Good message, well written lyrics, all that good stuff. And then they get to the end and have children singing the lyrics in the background!
And I was like, "Aw, man! That's awesome!"
Very good song, liked it very much.
The part where it says make another joke while they hang another rope it's so strong and meaningful even though it's one line
I mean people are like that they will drag your shit out in public, cock block themselves and wonder why they get turned down then try to convince you that all these illness and try to tell you what you actually want in life as well as make you doubt how much you care about others. If anything they make one wonder if they should hang themselves. But no that's not how you deal with a bully you just avoid them if they get that bad and resist. There is a level of being civil and a level of being reckless understand the too. Don't let them try to scare you with the thought of lack of salvation and hell. It's nothing like the hell they will drag you into.
REALLY great song.
Have been to six primary schools and been bullied. But in high school I have learnt to ignore them and have two very special friends. Never give up hope of finding nice people. Thank you Ruth and Rachel, who have significantly boosted my confidence
Lol fuck that shit. Turns out Rachel told Ruth (who had social anxiety) to sit on her own at prom without my knowledge. Only found out a couple of months ago. Still not told her I know, I just stopped messaging her. And you know what? Turns out she doesn't care I stopped messaging because she'd not even tried to contact me. I was the one putting all the effort in. Bitch please, no one gonna use me like that again. Just remember, we were the one's who accepted you when everyone was bullying you at the start of high school!! And now you can't even pick up the phone to text "How you doing?" Fed up with fake people. Ruth stayed at home on prom night despite having spent the money on a dress and shoes and everything. She stayed home because she felt unwanted!! How dare you!! Funny what comes out in a year!!
I have ADHD, so i am constantly getting bullied by the same group of girls and nobody at my school cares at all.When I listen to this song it gets me into a mood that all I want to do is plan my revenge >:-)
+WarriorsRVBfan 3 words, bucket of jelly
i have the same exact feeling when i hear this song xD
i have adhd too but im not bullied for it cause i take medicine for it
That's sad. You use Life Changing Drugs so you can be Normal? You should be able to be yourself. But. That's your (Or Parents) decision.
+WarriorsRVBfan Give'em a few cracks in the jaw, who cares if they're female, just because they're girls don't mean they don't deserve what a man would get or worse.
I can guarantee if I was there by your side they'd be missing every tooth in their head, I would deform them for the rest of their life, don't even care if I'd go to prison for it, them being tormented every time they look in the mirror is worth it.
Not afraid to say I'm a homosexual. I live this everyday.
MistressFailGame You shouldn't have to be afraid to say it. The only thing that matters is if you're a good person.
MistressFailGame No one should make you feel ashamed of being gay. Nothing wrong in being gay. If the ones who make you hurt can't see that your being a good person isn't based on sexual orientation then they really are not worth bothering with.
Be who you are and be proud of that. Be a symbol of love to invalidate their cruelty. And remember you are never alone. if you feel that no one can hear you they can and they can help you through this. be it family, friends, professionals they can help you stand against the bullies and show you are the better person.
IIMiikexDII I'm not afraid to say it. I don't care what the world thinks of me. If they aren't going to love me for my personality which is sweet, kind hearted and loving they don't deserve to be near me if they are going to judge me on the fact I'm a homosexual.
we're here we're queer
but I'm not gay just saying this lol
I don't hate anyone but I'm not going to stick around and let myself get surrounded by people who do hate me just because I'm different.
I had a bunch of death threats when I was in high school, I was so depressed that I didn't want to live. Hurting myself was the dumbest thing I've could have done, but I'm still very happy that I'm alive. There so much more to the world than your small town or school. Stay strong everyone.
This is possibly the greatest topic any song has covered.
You know, no matter what anyone says, each and every person on this planet is unique and we should relish these differences rather than try to remove them via verbal and/or physical abuse.
I was bullied for a long time, and now I'm stronger for it. I hope no one ever has to be bullied, again if you have or ever if you haven't, but it is hell. Just, the people out there who are being bullied, remmeber that you aren't alone and no matter how hard it gets you can survive! Just push through, tell someone, and survive it all!
Wish I had this song to listen to back in middle school.
Major respect to you, BRO.
so many memories this is the song that got me into rock in the first place glad I found this 👌
me and my friends' anthem :D we love it and we're trying to stop bullying in our school... totally my anthem
Ohhh yeah It is an awesome song
I dislike you ... pony boy... or girl
Jayson Donaghy why thank you
I had a bullying problem once. Once.
haha ONCE
Did you hide the body well
+Alen Rodriguez No, I started dating his sister.
Wow that's how you possibly him off and get immunity from him ;)
He hasn't said a word to me since, lol. Especially after I proposed to her. XD
I LOVE this song! Its so amazing that stars will speak out and makes songs against bullying.
Shinedown is one of my favorite bands and I love the meaning behind their music
badass song
I never really let bullying attempts get to me. I'd usually empathize with their personal issues and talk them through their issues instead of vilifying them.
"push to the dirt, till the words don't hurt" Literally my life.
This is the best video of lyrics i seen,,, good job !!!
Holy shit good song
3-4 (Almost 5th) I have been bullied, by the same vulgar and negative group of people, They're the exact reason Im like I am, and why I despise new music, The music I listen to is "Shitty" and "Weird" like this one. They say Im a wimp, along with my brother. They don't understand my life, and what hell they put me through. Once, one of the bullies fell. Being the kind person I am, I asked if they were ok. The next few days, Im still described as usual things. Im on the edge of snapping. I've raised my voice, and cursed at my brother for what he said once. A few months ago, a person who bullied me asked me if I liked my teacher or not. I nodded, but felt regret while talking to him. What the hell was he doing? Trying to start a friendship with someone hes kicked around? Im not accepting a friend request from someone whose punished me for nothing. And my teachers- Damn, where do I begin? They tell me they WONT tolerate bullying. But Hell, I told them I was picked on once, My Response: Go sit down. WTF? Ik you dont tolerate it, you support it. They think just saying "Don't Do That" Or Writing anyone up is gonna help? No, a bully wants to feel like they have power, and you need to show them your not a pushover. I remember once, I was with one of my friends and we were drawing when we weren't suppose to be. So, the person 1 desk away from us says, "Stop that. Your not suppose to do that." So my friend said "Leave Us Alone." And then he said. "Little girl, your gonna do as I say, Im stronger then you, and I can beat you up." Wtf honestly. So, then I said back in response. "Im Not Gonna Be Such A Pushover This Year." And glared him right in the face. "Hm- Girl.." Wtf kinda response is that? If he smacks those lips at me anymore, I swear to god.
Dear Chloe, Thank you for being there by my side at everytime.
Dear Khamani, Im sorry for not being your precious "Servant"
Dear Tymarcus, Sorry for not being that Wimpy Friend.
Dear Damiona, Sorry for being kind.
Dear LaRico, Sorry for being myself.
Dear Landon, Sorry for not being that outgoing friend you wanted.
Dear Parents, Sorry for not being that perfect child you always wanted.
Dear Brother, Sorry for not being that perfect sibling.
Dear Dakota Angelz, Thank you, for being in my life.
Dear Everyone, Sorry For Being Human.
People with lower iq levels tend to gravitate towards racism and violence thinking they can live with that ideology basically they are bullying you because you're smarter than they are and or they live and raised incorrectly I used to be bullied until I knocked a kid out of self defense but I do regret doing so but anyway basically you're bullied by idiots and they are lower than you don't stoop down to their level it leads some where unpleasant
I don't plan on it.
Ok it's amazing what stuff I find while researching different topics and I'm glad I could help the more ya know
can I kill that group of bullies. I agree with what you said with the school of the whole bullying thing. it is not right, if someone was bullying me I would have punched them in the face, like I wanna do to those people who picked on YOU, they should get sent to hell!!!!!
***** quite a few people
Major respect to you, dude.
Need this now more than ever.
I was in a very homophobic school and I had this "friend" she was very toxic but we were friends for as long as I can remember. during 7th grade I figured out I was bi and I told her..she told everyone in school and I was constantly bullied about it, this one time a guy beat me up actually be broke one of my ribs and my arm along with giving me a black eye broken nose and a lot of other things. as soon as I fought back a teacher saw and I got in trouble because "it's my fault for being openly homosexual because I should know what will happen" I got suspended for 3 weeks and I still had to do my school work...I was in the hospital and I could barely move because it hurt so much..once I got back to school (I still had a cast on and I needed help to my classes because I could barely walk) I saw the person who beat me up..he didn't get in trouble at all and actually got praised by teachers, students and staff. I got dirty looks from everyone except my Chorus and LA teacher. those two were the only ones who got me through that and my coming out gave courage to other students to come out to me and I started a GSA (gay straight alliance) and we had meetings every tuesday and wednesday. I also made an Anit-bully alliance and we performed concerts (some of them were in chorus and my chorus teacher helped us), held dances, and did study groups. Bullying went down and soon no one had to deal with it anymore..our school was bully free. I felt so good that I and many others did that and it is one of the many things I am proud of!
When I was in elementary I was bullied for liking to hunt and people would make really crude jokes about me killing their pets in the middle of the night and that I was a sociopathic freak. One day I figured out that the person who started those rumors was my closest and only friend. At free time I walked up to him and kicked him in the balls and walked away. I still find it funny to this day that he was scared of me after that and immediately stopped making rumors and he would even try to avoid me in the halls.

Noice
If have told him I only hint humans
Dude I could listen to this song, forever! :D
Danm, I haven't listened to this song in years and UA-cam just randomly suggested it to me. I have a less edgy taste in music now but I'll always appreciate it, a real blast from the past 🤘🏼
Lyrics are cool. I only came here cause I liked the way the song sounded. Sorry, was never bullied :(
PsychoLoki fair enough
PsychoLoki same
Wolfgang Klinger it's all good. Not all of us has been through it, a great many of us has been. Be lucky you didn't have to deal with it, the physical beat downs, the verbal ridicule at your expense in front of everyone, it sucked. Still sucks for thousands more kids today. The only problem I have with bullies now, besides that there are still bullies is the fact that kids are no longer allowed to defend themselves. At least not here in California. My son's been suspended a couple of times for fighting, but the school didn't tell me he was defending himself or another kid, he had to tell me. So when I picked him and found out, we went and had some fun.
Must be nice, huh :/
At least you never bullied someone. Right?
I have a bully....He hates me worse because I got fed up with his bulls**t and punched his teeth right down his throat. DON'T under estimate a short and skinny girl. :D
Edit: Not telling you to punch the teeth down your bullies throat...But if they bully you for more then 1 school year....Do it.
Gigachad move. Just little advice: Don't waste 1 year of your life with waiting.... You touch me once..ok ... Second time ...you're better don't do this again ..3.. STRIKE BACK
This song makes me feel better. I heard it in the car and now I can listen to this everyday when I'm bullied.
This will forever be an iconic song?
I was so bullied when I finally fought back, my mother bought me ice cream and let me have a day "off school"
If that doesn't tell you how bad it was, I don't know what else will
I never let anyone touch me without paying for it now
Am I the only one without bully problems and I'm just here because it's a good ass song?
No .. Once they tried to catch me in 3 guys ...When I shut down the first one who tried to hold my hands the 2 left and since than I had no problem :) I love this music
Same here, great song!
hell yeah awsome come back!!
Seria tão bom se alguém fizesse a tradução em português dessa música, me identifico muito com ela e queria postar ela no status. Eu tbm já passei por bullying quando eu ia pra escola.
I didn't either, but thats why i got help from family, friends, and even asked people on youtube. I did get advice, which proves that you don't need to wait for help, because people are willing to help you. I mean, i got very good advice from people on youtube. If you still need help coping i can help. I'd like to help people who know what i went through.
i was bullied in high school when i came to this country 12 years ago. i started fighting back until i finally got kickd out. i don't regret it after all this time because i stood up for myself when everybody else saw me down and muddy... keeo your hopes up if you are going thought the same situation. don't be afraid, be smart, life gets better
This song makes me confident all of your songs do cool!!!!i rate this song 1ooooooo
People don't like this song because? This song is a good example to stand up to a bully. And people say that people who get bullied are taking it to seriously? That's called being sensitive. And some people says bullies have feelings.? So, doesn't mean that they have to take it out on us. Would you rather let the bully kill himself or the bullied kill themselves.
I'm actually playing this song for Marching Band.
I did my freshman year it was amazing on the field. good luck!
+Maddy Valentine Thank you! It's a hard song to play and march to, but we're getting it.
lucky
Sophia Lind lucky

+Ashlee Johnson brony sir like me just asking the to the moon thing makes me think of luna.

I decided to fight back to bullies and shit became worst and fighting back made me feel so guilty....iam just depressed :'(
MsEv4ever Turning the other cheek won't make it better. So at least if you can kick their fucking asses it might make them realize not to mess with you. Create an image, the image of a dangerous, dangerous person. Wear black, leather jackets. Keep your hands in your pockets, as if you were hiding a knife (even if you got nothing, fear works well). Fight fire with fire. Intimidate them and they'll be scared.
The reason why bullies bully is because the victims appear weak, or at least, weaker than them. In actuality, bullies aren't any stronger than the weakest part of their victims.
Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. I was bullied in elementary school. In the summer between my 7th and 8th grade, I changed styles. I started listening to hardcore music and wearing chains, black, platform boots. Oh believe me, nobody dared even talk to me. When I got in high school, nobody even thought of messing with me because I looked like a fucking criminal (even though I wasn't... the worst I've done is smoke a joint... lol).
Create that image, even if it isn't who you are. When you walk around, keep your head high and look either directly in front of you, or up to the sky. Stare at people in the eyes: avoiding their eye contact makes you seem weak. If someone punches, you punch back.
Defending yourself is a right. You have nothing to feel guilty about.
MsEv4ever this struck me hard. I was bullied in Middle School & into high school, but then got this reputation as being kind of tough an untouchable. I didn't start fighting back until I graduated college & had an abusive boss. They didn't even give me a desk of my own so my "desk" was the end of his desk in his small office in the back of the floor. He'd wait for there to be an audience in the room outside of his office and then start screaming at me and berating me. It was like a full 8 hour work day of being told I was incompetent and worthless, unable to learn and like I lied and about my qualifications (even though I most certainly did not)
Whenever I started talking back and making an effort to fight back for myself, I would feel awful and like I was losing sight of myself. It hurt and I'd leave work crying in my car more often than not. It was only 3 months out of my life, but it completely ruined me.
My next job, though, I had this AMAZING boss who helped me heal over a matter of 5 weeks. I was perfectly fine again because he believed in me and showed me all the reasons to value myself and my skill set.
I think what I'm trying to say is that - it hurts so hard to lose sight of yourself and your morals and who you are. I think the trick is to remember to be strong. It's a phase. Once you get through it, you'll find your chance to heal. I think the best way of fighting back is to constantly remind yourself that you're a better person and you know right from wrong and you are strong enough to get up every day and put yourself out there without fear of being put down. IT pays to lose sight of caring what others think of you or say to hurt you. It can be very hard, but it'll give you the strength to carry on and come out on the other side of it a stronger, more respectable person. Hang in there, okay?
Bully's are bad that's all they are I got pinned against the wall to day and I yelled all ur ever gonna be is a faded memorie of a bully and he punched me in the face and I yelled it agian and he let go but I didnt stop me from yelling the rest of that part of the song
Don't feel guilty hun... You shouldn't tolerate any mistreatment and love yourself. Why should you feel bad for standing your ground? It's not any worse than what they do to you..
MsEv4ever I went through the same thing and soon it just stopped and well, lets just say that I wasn't bullied for a long time
I love this song always puts a smile on my face
this song helped me deal with my past thanks.....
when Amanda Todd died, they played her video during their concerts.
Suicide isn't cowardly..I'll tell you what is....Making someone feel bad enough to kill themselves Is cowardly...
saw them live at carolina rebellion last year. great band
This song is the one only thing getting me through high school. Love this song!
I remember as a kid my glasses would always get knocked off my face by a kid who bullied me regularly, one day I was having a bad day and he came by and knocked all my books down from my locker and flipped off my glasses, so i took one swing a broke his nose and made him ugly.
good
In elementary school I was jumped everyday at recess because I'm a geek and one day I heard this and it motivated me enough to beat the $#&@ out of two of the children...
Did you get in trouble?
it was after school so no
Dude nice
The Shadow Blade You beat up children?
People Like Grapes When I was in elementary kids my age would
Awesome song!!!!!
Been bullied all my life. Even by family and a close friend whom of 20 years. In the end she was also a bully. Love this song!
***** Actually that is the very definition of psychical bullying. Insulting someone by calling him fat, crazy, lazy etc. That is mental abuse. Your whole post shows me one thing, that you actually approve bullies and their way of treating people and that you might be one of them. "then you are probably doing the whole of humanity a huge favor." So you actually think that if someone is sensitive and words hurt him/her more then other people, they should take their lives because they are sensitive and react to certain stuff differently? Honestly, don't take this the wrong way, but if you truly believe in this and there is no other reason to write this if you don't then i would warm heartedly recommend you to seek professional help as soon as possible. You are potentially a risk to other people. Cause surprise, surprise, sensitive people do exist, not everyone is the same which doesn't mean you get to insult and abuse them, be it psychical or physical. Which doesn't mean you get to say if they deserve to live or not! And bullies are not there to make other people stronger, bullies are most of the time people that are troubled with their own complexes. "Human diversity" as you said does exist (that is also why certain people can react better when bullied, and certain people not), but that doesn't mean that discrimination and abuse should exist and be excused. The definition of "better", "good" should not and is not based on evil, pain and wrong doing, it is based on moral standards and ethical way of thinking and perceiving the world. Evil is not done in order to make anyone good or better, evil is done because of different reasons. You are showing all signs and the pattern of thinking of a bully. So, once again, professional help. I really recommend. And i hope it helps and changes the way you think. :)
P.S: The song is great! ;)
"Never attribute to malice, that which can be explained through ignorance".
the feels of that comment.
but very true perspectives.
:)
***** Got news for you partner, evil and wrong go hand in hand, you're right or you're not its as simple as that, there's no gray area anywhere in there, no middle ground. Bullying of any sort is WRONG AND EVIL! Do you think the Christian God approves this? NO! He sent his SON to bear the sins of the world so shit just like what you're saying wouldn't happen! The Mafia, gangs, etc. aren't evil?! Is that what you're saying? Murderers aren't evil?! Because I have news for you dude or chick or whatever you are, if someone dies over something that's said to them in spite, hatred, or bullying meaning by heart condition, suicide, or whatever else its called Involuntary Murder which DING DONG can land you with a sentence in prison. Clearly you have a warped logic, I don't care what you think your "point" is from something as unreliable as wikipedia and if you think for a single moment that God is with you on this one, you're dead wrong. Remember Moses? He led the oppressed from Pharaoh by God's command. And before you go trying to contradict me, know this: I come from a religious family so I'm know what I'm talking about! There's no divine power on your side, in fact you may need to remember to read over the good book again and realize that in the Old Testament especially people were struck down for less than what you've been saying.
Make no mistake, I'm not threatening you, just stating fact. BULLYING IS WRONG! ITS EVIL! AND THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO VIEW IT!
Good job to those who continue to stand tall against it and good for those who say "I won't take this anymore!" and push back!
And suicide is NOT a weakness! Its done when a person's strong heart finally falters and can no longer take the abuse because yes! Mental abuse is bad on a person's heart too it doesn't only have to be physical! If one pushes a person that so far they can't take it anymore, again it is called Involuntary Murder and that my dear warped person comes straight from an officer of the law I've spoken with on the subject when one of my own friends died of a severe heart attack brought on by a bully. Know where the perp is now? PRISON!
You or no one else is above the law, the divine or the laws of man in any way. You are right about one thing though, there's opinion and then there's fact. What you are spouting is a product of your opinion and warped as it is, you're entitled to it. And we the ones who see the truth, see the facts for what it is have the right to be concerned and speak up. If you disagree, if you want to avoid argument which I promise you, you'll lose if you continue then keep your strange opinions to yourself.
Yes, I may seem a little hostile right now, I apologize for that, but I too have been the victim of bullying all the way from kindergarten until now and the bullies even went so far as to drive by my house and BULLY me on my weight, on my appearance, on my intellect, on anything they could think of and even stalked me to the store a few times so they could throw rocks at me when I came out.
I don't know how many times I nearly took a knife to my wrist or throat or visualized pulling the trigger with a pistol barrel to my head all the while sobbing my eyes out, don't know how many times I wrote a suicide note and if it weren't for my parents, little sister, and the few friends I had then constantly giving support I would have been long gone years ago. Yes I got stronger but it was NOT because of what bullies did to me if they changed me at all they made me a cold hearted bitch for a long time and I became a bully myself for a while until I saw what I was doing and straightened MYSELF out. I took a stand against them, not physically, but as I am doing now and apologized to everyone I myself had hurt.
Now I'm 28 almost 29 and have written a book (not published yet) have more friends than I can count, have an amazing and wonderful girlfriend, and stronger than ever, and NOT because of bullies, because of the support and love from friends and family. So you're statement "bullies make people stronger" is a whopper of a freidan ship because I'm living proof that, that's not the case.
Everyone who has been the victim of bullying, don't listen to that person, you can make it. Keep your head high, I know how it hurts, I've been there, but show them you will NOT be taken down, show them how strong you are because trust me there's better things coming. It may not seem like that now, but take it from someone who's been there.
Shinedown, thank you so much for speaking out against bullying its truly a great joy to see stars do so. It reaches out to people who need encouragement and makes some see the error of their ways.
StarClimber009 Thank you for speaking up as well, I'm with you hun. Stand against bullying, fight on against abuse!
And you, ***** if nothing else I've said gets through to you, hopefully at least this does. Look at your opinion, and then look at the majority of the world who stands against everything you've said. I think you'll find our numbers are way higher and think of it like this, we can't all be wrong. I mean, stars are against it, the freaking PRESIDENT is against it, most of the WORLD is! Now tell me....still think bullies aren't wrong in what they do?
Oh and for a closing statement, "can't fight fire with fire" or whatever you said before. Well here's something else for you to ponder. I have personally SEEN kids who were bullied stand up to their bullies and guess what? The bully backed down and they later became very close friends.
STOMP OUT BULLYING LETS END THE VICIOUS CYCLE!
