    I feel like RWBY is gradually trying to introduce the idea that, even in life's chaos, even if things aren't perfect, optimism is possible.

      That's what I'm trying to adopt in life. Yes, the world isn't perfect, but we need to see the beauty and fun warmth that is there and possible. I respect Rooster Teeth's shows for being very Anti-Nihilist. Even two talk show hosts whom I respect a lot, Conan O'Brien and Steve Colbert, gave speeches on why cynicism can ruin your life. (I say try to be more of a realist but keep the ideals you want to achieve)

    This song speaks to me in so many levels.
    I've been battling depression ever since my mom passed last year. I'm left with what they call "survivor's guilt" and I feel hopeless. I feel stuck in life, hung up with the feelings of regret and yet hoping hard enough everything gets better. this song encapsulates the extreme sadness and the hope of a better tomorrow I'm constantly feeling

      And this is exactly, why I hate what RWBY has become. I too suffered from depression and extreme despair, believing that I was unworthy of life. When I discovered watched RWBY and I found my Faith and Hope returning and even up till Vol. 6 I saw this Show as being one of the best Animations out that can help others like me. But then Volume 7, 8 and 9 came. They ruined the characters I looked up to as role models and people who I wished I could be friends with, who in a sense help saved me from suicide. Roosterteeth and DC turned them into awful, unheroic, self-righteous, corrupt and unrecognisable from the resilient, righteous and truly heroic individuals I cared for, all just to fit a spiteful, hypocritical and hateful Leftist, Feminist, Misandric and WOKE Narrative!

    This is unironically one of my favorite songs of all time. It's practically perfect in every way I can think of, has so many amazing lyrics, the slow part near the end always fucking DESTROYS me emotionally... and then the transition from the pits of hopelessness to finally being happy again is JUST. SO. GOOD.
    I will never not love this masterpiece...

    What I've realized about this song is fhat after the memorial section to Monty - expressing how we should keep moving forward - the song goes into a quiet moment of observation and mourning. Because that moment where you reflect and mourn your loss is still incredibly vital... But soon enough, the guitar kicks back in (maybe where anger comes in at times) and the chorus comes back around again. It's an amazing representation of a healthy grieving process for me.

    Every time I listen to this song I wonder how Jeff came up with that chord progression in the pre-chorus (1:52)... the interchange from major to IV minor then resolving down a fourth to the I major 7. I think it's likely one of those things you happen do by chance one day and then wonder what divine inspiration possessed you. Listening to that chord progression is one of the closest things to magic I've come across in my life. Never heard it in any other piece of music. 💜

      @@velvetbutterfly I feel like the tone shift is what hurt it a lot for me. the big Climax of Volume 3 was amazing, but after that the story just felt waaay to slow. It felt like they wanted to focus on it being darker without realizing what made RWBY special. It just felt like any other fantasy series after that. Another big thing for me was the fight scenes. I know they get better after volume 5, but it feels too homogenized. Like, everyone moves at a break neck speed, every gun feels the same. There's pretty much no foucs on anyone's fighting styles anymore. Also, The whole thing of Whiess not believing that Magic is real when this is a world with elemental dust and fucking superpowers has to be one of the dumbest thing I have ever seen in a story.

The events at this point in the series and thinking about how it applies to my life as well. I am sad to hear of the creator Monty's passing. I know I am years late, but this goes to show how great his vision was if I am a new fan of the series now.
    I know some of the early animation was rough, but I love seeing how the team improved and I saw a massive improvement in the animation this volume. I honestly expected to not like the series, but now I am rather mad that I didn't watch it sooner.

    It used to feel like a fairy tale
    Now it seems we were just pretending
    We'd fix our world
    Then on our way to a happy ending
    Then it turned out life
    Was far less like a bedtime story
    Than a tragedy
    With no big reveal of the hero's glory
    And it seems we weren't prepared
    For a game that wasn't fair
    Do we just go home?
    Can we follow through?
    When all hope is gone,
    There is one thing we can do
    Let's just live
    Day by day and not be conquered by our sorrows
    The past can't hold us down
    We must break free
    Inside we're torn apart
    But time will mend our hearts
    Move onward not there yet
    So let's just live
    Can we get back to a happy place?
    We've suffered so much pain and sorrow
    After yesterday is there any way
    We can trust tomorrow?
    Will we go through life
    Filled with strife like it's torn and tattered
    Can we keep this up
    When we all know that every hope has shattered?
    And the lesson isn't new
    That some dreams just can't come true
    When it finally falls
    And the battle's through
    When our faith is gone
    And there's nothing left to lose
    Let's just live
    Day by day and not be conquered by our sorrows
    The past can't hold us down
    We must break free
    Inside we're torn apart
    But time will mend our hearts
    Move onward not there yet so let's just live
    When it feels like there's nothing
    Worth living for
    Everything is broken
    The light's not there anymore
    And the story
    Takes an unexpected turn
    A friend is suddenly gone
    We can cry our lives away
    But if they were here they'd say
    Go forward you must keep moving on
    Let's just live
    Just one day let's forget our problems
    Let's fall in love with life
    And just be free
    The sun will never fade
    The night won't steal our day
    Let's laugh and dance and love and let's just live

    For some reason, this song gives me the most nostalgia out of all the openings. People trash talk V4 a lot, and I'll admit, it had some issues, but this was the last Volume I enjoyed in its entirety. I thought the pacing was just fine seeing as it was right after the complete 180 turn of mood of V3, and the characters needed some time to reflect and overcome their feelings about what happened.
    Every time I hear this song I get a little sad and think about how good this show could've been. I'm reminded of the days when bumblebee stayed in the fandom, when Salem was still menacing, when the characters didn't make the dumbest choices, when Adam wasn't a whiny baby, when Ironwood wasn't a psychopath for no reason, when the main characters weren't always right... V1-V4 was truly the peak of RWBY.

      @@velvetbutterfly He was paranoid, not a psychopath. Which makes trusting Watts to hack Penny and not betray him even stupider. I think V7 did a pretty good job showing his distrust of those around him, and most of his actions made sense, arguably more sense than the main cast (other than shooting Oscar). He was an antihero, and a decent one at that. It made for interesting debates in the fandom because you could argue for either RWBY's hopeful but idealistic approach, or Ironwood's cold but realistic approach. The writers were determined to make him the bad guy though, because for some reason they don't like morally complex characters...

    My wife loved this song when it played during Season 4. She had been battling ovarian cancer for two years, and this song spoke very heavily to her.
    She passed away on June 3rd, 8:07pm GMT -5. She really would have wanted to hear the remainder of the song.
    The portion at 2:45 still gives me chills, because seriously.. It's exactly how she would have wanted to be remembered.
    This song is an anthem to her last two years on this earth, and I thank you for sharing this. It's.. Been a big help.

      They can both be true at the same time. "Time will mend our hearts", as in just leaving something to mend itself over time. Or "not every open wound is simply healed by time", sometimes you need more than just time to heal a wound. Maybe you need forgiveness, or to just let something go in order to become fully healed.

    Time To Say Goodbye: opening still energetic, but now hinting at a more somber and solemn background atmosphere and future
    When It Falls: opening that let's us know that now the show takes its dark turn and all hell breaks loose
    This song: opening that gives us hope, even in this new, unfamiliar, and even uncomfortable atmosphere, that we can return somewhat to the way things were
    Jeff Williams could almost craft the stories based on the songs alone. Thank you so much to him, Casey, and RT for this wonderful show and music, and thanks to Flynt for giving us the lyrics to go with it. Can't wait to see what The Next Step will be!

    "Go forward, you must keep moving on". To the Volume 4 critics out there (I know there are a lot of you), I ask you this: Would Monty have wanted RWBY to end before it's time, when he'd given them enough to, as he always said, 'keep moving forward"? I think we all know the answer to that. My advice to you is not to stop being critical, but voice your criticisms constructively. If the animation is bad, list examples. If you think the pacing is too slow, point out where. If you just think it's not quite the same without Monty, then you're right, and nobody will argue on that point, but know that they aren't trying to be Monty, and that Monty probably wouldn't want them to be him, either. I think that, if there were anyone he trusted, it would be the staff working on it now.
    So we should keep moving forward, as they are.

    All these people saying that this song wasn't the best to them, and I'm just over here like, this is the first opening I liked the moment it started playing the first time. It's been my favorite since the first time I heard it and in my opinion is the most heartfelt, catchy, and altogether beautiful openings to be made for RWBY. Of course, this is also taking into account that Casey's voice was an acquired taste for me. I absolutely hated it at first, I didn't get why my datemate was so obsessed with her. But now here I am. just as obsessed if not more.

      or maybe it wont end at all, if RvB is anything to go by.

      I hope this show doesn't end for a while. I realize it eventually has to other wise it will end up like DBZ and many other long running anime where it recycles it's plot over and over. But until then. I'm gonna enjoy the hell out of it.

    I think it's more a RNJR, or more specifically a Ruby and Jaune song than team RWBY, due to the male vocal back up. The lyrics are sad, and close to things Ruby said during the volume, but the melody is upbeat and full of energy like her. The male vocals only join during the first chorus, and grows in confidence during the second verse, mirroring how Jaune, Ren and Norra were inspired by Ruby into following her, and in Jaune's case repaying the favor when Ruby was starting to feel hopeless and doubting herself. On a meta level, of course the friend gone is Monty, but in the show it's Pyrrha (and the line some dream can't come true is a sad reminder of her song Dream Come True). Jaune and Ruby are the ones who seems to be the most affected by Pyrrha's death (since she watched her die and still has nightmares, and he keep watching again and again her video).

      Remicas My thoughts exactly. Unlike When It Falls which was fairly depressing and dark this song is acknowledging horrible things have happened, but stating you must keep moving onwards. In a way throughout Volume 4 every character had to do so in their own way.

      When it Falls is basically Cinder singing her plan to Ruby and how she and her friends are screwed, so of course it would be dark and depressing^^
      But yeah, here you have a more optimist message in pite of the bad stuff that happened

      the friend is gone line was written for Pyrrah, Monty was alive when the song was written

      Remicas Thats exactly how I feel! Especially in the slow part, I imagine Ruby watching Jaune pratice with that video and starting to see herself as the reason why they were without hope in the first place. This song just feels like everything Ruby is as a character to me!

      I'm kinda cynical about RWBY theories due to how many stupid ones I've seen. I've seen people theorize that Yang is actually Summer Rose, that the White Fang Lieutenant on the train in Volume 2 was Yatsuhashi from Team CFVY, and that Ruby actually is a Maiden and Qrow completely made up the story about the Silver Eyed Warriors.
