"You're the metaphors I can't create to comprehend this curse that I call love."
Ugh.. kills me every time.
Me 2 man...i was jus tellin someone the same thing
Dude i just told my gf that the song has one of the best quotes, the most romantic quote and you write it.
five years later this line is still my favourite
"You're the failed attempts I never could forget" that line leading right into the part you posted- THAT always gets me.
Lmoa everyone watch it after March 22, 2022 pizza gate edited the video lmao hella babies not the original video
Funny how you forget about a song for 11 years but still know all the words....also I'm literally crying right now.
K K omg same 😭
Wow your on point
lmfao I thought the same thing like "How do I remember all of these words?" Motion City was special
It scares me how many songs I have forgotten about like this one that I used to love.
Like seeing a very good friend you havent seen since a long time ago on a day that feels where your not wanted anywhere or when you feel your presence annoys people
Some of the most well written lyrics ever
Still holds up to this day!!
the first is LGFUAD
Justin is one hell of a writer
Forever
A 17 year old song and it feels like it hasn't aged a day...how time goes by... I'll always love MCS 🤘
100% agree!
agree
Damn straight
Dude, so true
Its older than that
Epitaph should reupload motion city's videos in higher resolution as a parting gift
That's not how that works.... lol
wym? they still have the rights and the footage all they have to do is remaster it. some of them aren't even that old
Yes it is, as long as the original video was recorded in high def. You don't think anyone actually filmed professional music videos in 240p, do you?
I've got some news for you: They're touring again!
@@Stavvy0 WHAAT
This band transcended the emo genre. They were pioneers. They are still, to this day, my favorite band on the planet.
what in the world…
Samesies
i know not many people may have the same question as i used to, but this place was filmed in california, mammoth mountain
and if you're reading this, you got good taste, you gotta try the weakends or even if it kills me. ♥
At 37 breaking up with the punk girl from my youth still rings true. We're both old, married, and happy. But this song still rips.
it's interesting how compelling it is to tell the stories we relate to music as if a sense of solace is born not from the art, but the catharsis of sharing our collective pain to a world we expect will never see.
it's been over 10 years. from blooming high school chemestry to the failure of proposals and all the love and lust in the between. sharing beds, swapping saliva and stories, finding connections, losing touch and money and home. i still cry.
This is the most real comment I have ever read.
This song is a masterpiece. This is great music. It's out of time. Everytime I listen to it, I have goosebumps everywhere on my skin. This is by far the best MCS song (but Last Night is my favorite). I'm so glad to had the chance to see them play this song one last time. I will never forget that. Ever. Thank you guys for everything.
They are touring with this album!!! Check it out!
Lmoa everyone watch it after March 22, 2022 pizza gate edited the video lmao hella babies not the original video
i’m 5 years late, but Everything Is Alright exists lol
@@sarahluisatorres1824 what are you talking about?
@@1Shai3Hulud8 there are. Video clips added in from the original video
i cant believe its 16 years old...god we got old ha
Back when this and other good bands used to be the mainstream... What happened..... 😑
I'm 15, meaning I'm younger than this video. Feel old, millennial scum! Feel old!
We did 😂
this song is pulling me through this break up right now....
"You're the echoes of my everything,
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You're the laziness of afternoon,
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom.
You're the leaky sink of sentiment,
You're the failed attempts I never could forget.
You're the metaphors I can't create to comprehend this curse that I call love..
How will I break the news to you?"
... One word... GENIUS!!!
I ♥MCS lol :D
Tony’s drumming is always so tasteful.
"I love you...however" kills me every time
I found this song with my bf and he hadn't heard it in over 15 years. He cried. He was so happy.
I saw them live last night and immediately started crying when they played this song.
It's so sad when bands which have great music, like this one, don't get the recognition they deserve.
Its cool how they managed to get their hands on a 1440p camera to film this on back in 2006!
High resolution TV and movie cameras have existed for a long time
@@benfennell6842 I knew that but most people didn't even have 720p screens back in 2006 to watch this on, muchtheless 1080 or 1440 lol
@@_Deviltruth
I was lucky if I had something 1080p
This song literally brings me to tears every time I hear it alone
Why are all the masterpieces so deeply underrated?
this is one of the only bands i listened to in middle school that i still like.
Lmoa everyone watch it after March 22, 2022 pizza gate edited the video lmao hella babies not the original video
Still manages to awaken old dusty memories that I can't seem to shake. Beautiful song.
I remember breaking up with my girlfriend in high school and just sitting behind some gas station somewhere for like 5 hours and listening to this in the freezing gray weather. I know it's not what the songs about but after not hearing this for like 5 years, the murk shifts and stirs and memories bubble to the surface, cant be helped.
honestly the lyrics to this song are indescribably clever and just its so real and wow I don't even know what to say
Agreed. I just looked up the lyrics, and just, wow. I'm honestly blown away with how good they are. I've liked MCS for years, and specifically this song too, but I never dug into the lyrics. Freaking amazing, really.
Lmoa everyone watch it after March 22, 2022 pizza gate edited the video lmao hella babies not the original video
one of the most artistic lyrics and well paced song out there
I’m here as an adult to thank this band for getting me through my troubled teen years 😇
God, same.
“You’re the echoes of my everything.
You’re the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You’re the laziness of afternoon.
You’re the reason why I burst and why I bloom.”
Every single time these are the lyrics that get me. ❤
If you feel this way,
Don’t go.
❤❤❤❤❤
I was 14 when this came out. I remember this vid on heavy rotation on fuse back in the day. Ahhh the memories.
I was probably 12 and I remember binge watching Flux, especially this video!
This video was actually shot in the island of Greenland, you can tell by the background of snowy mountains and green trees,
@@yelbastianannastasia9516 did not know that.
MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACK SINGING AKB48'S SONG???
@@marcomeister4647 we here mane
This song is timeless and beautiful
It's precious and I associate it with a time in my life with someone I loved very much
It's beautiful, it can hurt
But it's perfect the way it is
I love this song, everytime I hear this song I feel a deep sadness that shakes my very core...
is there a way to make it stop ?
Still one of my top 5 albums ever. Perfect album all the way through.
Congrats to Epitaph for remastering this song and video with a potato.
It took me what feels like a million years to be able to listen to these guys again...my ex used to sing their songs to me. He took my v card and peaced out a week later, broke my heart. I've come so far since then. All wounds heal!
this song gets me no matter how many times I hear it
me too..
Lmoa everyone watch it after March 22, 2022 pizza gate edited the video lmao hella babies not the original video
Motion City Soundtrack is one of those bands that I won't listen to for a while, because I just don't think about it. Then I hear them again, and wonder how I could have possibly NOT listened to them. They're so amazing.
a million moons ago my ex and I were passing love songs to each other and he passed me this song. I listened to it, expecting a song about the proclamation of love rather than that "i love you, however," that the song is. from then on it became an inside joke between us, and we would joke about how we hold each other down. looking back on it more than a year later, i probably was the one holding him down.
17 years ago.. that's so crazy to me..
What really gets me is that everything after "I found a letter that said" is supposed to be someone else addressing the singer/listener, not from the singer/listener themselves.
When you realize he's reading the letter it becomes even more heartbreaking
Lyrics
I found a letter that said, "I'm sorry that"
"You were asleep when I wrote these words down"
"You'd think I'd ought to be used to that by now"
Stay for a few of those late night episodes
Missed opportunities, and "I don't care's"
There's not a lot that I feel obliged to share
Or talk about
I'll have my brother stop by this Saturday to
Pick up my things, just make sure you're not there
This may sound bad, and don't take it the wrong way
I love you, however
You hold me down
You hold me down
You hold me down
You hold me down
You're the echoes of my everything
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night
You're the laziness of afternoon
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom
How will I break the news to you?
How will I break the news to you?
Cancel our dinner with Max and Coraline
Feed Jacky's gerbil and try to stay clean
We'll talk it over after I've had some time
Alone to sort it out
You hold me down
You hold me down
You hold me down
You hold me down
You're the echoes of my everything
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night
You're the laziness of afternoon
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom
You're the leaky sink of sentiment
You're the failed attempts I never could forget
You're the metaphors I can't create
To comprehend this curse that I call love
How will I break the news to you?
How will I break the news to you?
How will I break the news to you?
How will I break the news to you?
How will I break the news to you?

Hold Me Down lyrics © Chrysalis Music, Hooray Let's Fight
Seeing you guys live in Cincy the other night was so amazing. I cried so much. Your music has held some beautiful and some painful memories for me through the years. Hands down one of my top 5 favorite bands.
Saw them live in Silver Spring tonight. Fucking great show.
easily my favorite band of all time
Silverstein- Smile in your sleep
The Audition- You've made us conscious
Hawthorne Heights- This is who we are
Action Action - Druglike
Bayside- Devotion and Desire
June- Patrick
Just some stuff i think you'll like.
This song helped me more than I can express.
Oh the feels are strong with this one
these lyrics are so beautiful
these guys are playing their farewell tour in Austin tonight and I'm missing it. thanks for all the great songs and beautiful memories guys, we will miss you but good luck in all your future endeavors!! You broke the news but we still love you! :,)
I use to live in Austin but moved back to my hometown due to a bad breakup. I was so bummed to miss their last show there. :(
wow, i didn't even know these guys were breaking up(past tense by now). That literally broke my heart hearing this...

@@sarahluisatorres1824 go away bot
I think the beauty of this song is that you can make your own meaning, sure when Justin wrote it he had his own experiences in mind, but it's so versatile that you can take it and apply it to your own life.
These are those songs that people dont forget. They're awesome.
You were right; we didn’t forget
Its 2018 and im 26 years old. It's been about a decade since I've listened to this song. I stumbled back upon this as I'm going through a dark period. It hurts and I understand the words now more than I ever did before
Damn. We're the same age.
goddamn this song just crushed me ten years later. hindsight man..
I feel the same way. I've listen to this song nonstop.. I forgot about them then I saw they were coming to water street. I have missed them so much!
this song is so unquestionably beautiful
Wow I’m back here in 2022!!! I remember when I was like middle school age and first saw their music video “tell me that you’re alright” a Claire’s type of store in the mall and was so fascinated with them hehe
I will miss your music. Your music was there the best years of my life. I'll be nostalgic and miss you awkwardly always. 😔
This song brings out so much in me. Being hold how much you make someone "burst and bloom", but still not being enough; still holding them down. "I love you, however" is one of the worst combinations of words that one can hear. Things being so good, but just not quite enough.
This fucking song kills.
You're the echoes of my everything
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night
You're the laziness of afternoon
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom
You're the leaky sink of sentiment
You're the failed attempts I never could forget
You're all the metaphors I can't create
To comprehend this curse that I call love….
Lmoa everyone watch it after March 22, 2022 pizza gate edited the video lmao hella babies not the original video
This song came out the year I hit my 3rd year of Uni and my highschool sweetheart was going to her first year of College.
My heart breaks every time I hear it.. but I'm sucker for nostalgia.
Yes to all the comments.
"I love you, however.."
This song has been more relevant now than it ever was when i was 14.
Can we get this old videos reuploaded in HD someday epitaph?
This is one of my favorite songs of all time.
Back years later to say I've only grown more fond of this song over the years 🖤
this song, is actually amazing, the way they put the words together just makes you realize how you felt before you listen to it
How the hell is this song 15 years ago?!?
am I really that old? 😭😭😭
Yes we are. 😭
this song is sooo underrated. mcs deserves so much more credit than they get.
This band meant and still means so much to me
Minnesota's finest...... unappreciated and underrated nerd rock!
Been listening to this song for a decade plus, and am just now realizing the whole song is a letter to Justin Pierre, and about his failures in a relationship. Amazing songwriting from an amazing band.
Age 34, still the best
I heard this song for the first time today....it tore my heart out. Beautiful, bittersweet. I broke up with the woman that I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with exactly one month ago today, and still feel like I'm dying inside. This hit home...HARD
Still one of my favorite bands. Hope they come back soon.
They are back!! Thet announced a tour not too long ago!!!
Quite possibly the saddest song to hear when you've just been dumped, yet the lyrics and the vocals sound so sweet.
It's a sin this doesn't have 200m+ views.
Im with you guys. This song fills me with hope.
Can't wait to see them in February!!!!
I honestly can't comprehend how something so beautiful could be composed.
When was this reuploaded in HD? Absolutely beautiful, top notch music video and supremely good song
just BEAUTIFUL just very BEAUTIFUL
Love this band. It's like they are inside my head, writing the things I can't figure out how to say or put together.
Back when I was in high school I had a tiny tv with a vcr built in. I’d do nothing but watch fuse/mtv/etc and record all these indie/emo music videos on vhs. I had like 12 tapes but I have no idea where they are today
Yes good days!
Morning mtv and fuse videos while getting ready for school :)
WHY MCS SO UNDERRATED ???
Agreed
Greatest mysteries of all time
I hope this comment brings you back here to listen to this great song after these three years since you last commented
because besides commit this to memory was really there only GREAT albuum. just wanted to let you know 4 years later
hhimynameischris false. My dinosaur life is amazing and even if it kills me is consistently great.
Forget what that other guy said. I know exactly what you're talking about, I can relate as well. I used to think I connected with people, but lately I see that everything has been largely superficial in my life. That feeling of wishing you had someone to share your mental orchestra with is crippling, and I have it too. I know it's only a youtube comment and it might not mean much, but you're not alone in feeling this way.
Man, December 4, 2021. Few weeks left before 2022, when you get old, time flies fast and some things just wear you out, then a lot will change before your eyes.
Yet this song still strikes me. This is for the past, the present and hoping for the better future.
Yay hd version finally!
This song brings back such wonderful and beautiful memories...listening in 2022.💯
Jesse, you and i potatoed and french fried handshaked here in Denver,CO. Each of you moved my soul on the stage of life.
I found a letter that said:
"I'm sorry that you were asleep when I wrote these words down,"
You'd think I'd ought to be used to that by now.
Save for a few of those late night episodes,
Missed opportunities, and "I Don't Cares,"
There's not a lot that I feel obliged to share or talk about.
I'll have my brother stop by this Saturday to pick up my things,
Just make sure you're not there.
This may sound bad, and don't take it the wrong way..
I love you, however,
You hold me down [x4]
You're the echoes of my everything,
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You're the laziness of afternoon,
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom.
How will I break the news to you? [x2]
Cancel our dinner with Max and Coraline,
feed Jacky's gerbil and try to stay clean.
We'll talk it over after I've had some time alone to sort it out.

Know this comment is a year old but I don't think the quotation marks should be there, as far as I know everything after the first line is supposed what the letter said.
conquest kami no close quote. Ever. That's what blew my mind 11 years after first hearing the song. No close quote. He's reflecting.
The literal HEART BREAK of loving someone with an addiction
Lmoa everyone watch it after March 22, 2022 pizza gate edited the video lmao hella babies not the original video
the song reverberates through my core. plus, i freaking love the video. perfection
great show at First Ave! your songs keep me alive.
Feeling old??
"You're the metaphors I can't create to comprehend this curse that I call love" -- Best line
2019 Still one of my favourite songs
Spent a late night in a warehouse by myself trying to get everything ready for Monday which is not my thing. Started humming, then singing then realizing how much I missed this song and this band. They got me through my shit. I'll never forget them.
My math teacher showed me this band and I'm so glad he did cause this band is great
your math teacher has good taste in music.
Your music helped me when I was suicidal, thank you MCS
The video sorta reminds me of the cures pictures of you video. Brings me back to the beginning of my high school days Great band and yes very underated goodbye MCs youl be missed.
This song will never not hit me right where I live. Some of the best lyrics I've ever heard.
i havent heard this song in like a year and the other day i was randomly thinking about it, so i looked it up and its even better than i remember. great song, great band
had such a powerful response to this album in my youth. paying respect.
How on earth could anyone ever dislike a video and song THIS good?
This is my favorite song by them. Every time I'm lonely or sad or somethin' like that, I listen to this song and I feel great.
Such an underrated band.
