I was pissed when somebody said this was the worst song on the album
Ikr!.. this is banger.. this is actually my favorite song of the new album
Not everyone likes the same things, and that’s okay!
Can't believe they amount of hate for the album as a whole. I love it. Saw them couple months ago and played maybe 4 or more songs from new album and was awesome 🤘😂
Actually it's my favourite song on the album ! So intense ♥️🥹🥹
The album is so good that I've seen so many different opinions.
19 years sober so far
Freedom is awesome
dude that's so awesome keep it up
God bless! I am 26 years sober from speedball, heroin, and coke. 23 years sober from drinking. Keep fighting the fight. You are not alone! This song hits so hard, and I cry as I write this.
what do you mean by sober? no coffee? no nicotine? no weed? no alcohol?
1 year and 6 months off coke for me
@@DolphinDerp hell yeah dude stay away from that shit it is evil congrats
n/A stands for narcotics anonymous which makes sense because Oli was addicted to ketamine for most of his adult life
He is still addicted, one time addicted, always an addicted... he may not be an user, but it's tough..
It took me a full 8 days of listening to the album on repeat for me to realise n/A stood for Narcotics Anonymous and not Not Applicable. 😂
Afaik, Oli had a relapse during lockdowns and the album was written about that
Ketamine isn't a narcotic though. It's a dissociative anesthetic. Does it matter?
And he still
My favorite song from the new album!
It's such a banger
Definitely one of the best! Especially since I featured on it 😎😂
Same here
As well
Yes same
The part where people call Oli a knobhead and what not was actually recorded on their tour, They recorded all the UK shows of us screaming out this stuff and merged it all to put it on the track.
i was so stoked to be part of that
I'm sure I can hear my voice there 😅
i was there too
me too! Was awesome to be involved in some small way! Best gig ever!
Check out Dig It. Really spoke to me..
"I hate my fucking guts right nooowwwww 😞😔"
That song spoke to me as well, it's sooo relatable
Dig It is the best song on the album for me🖤 Please react to it🥺
@@MrLinkinJason same
One of their best songs every. Dig It
OmG the way I cried...that song is amazing
Im a suicide survivor. And im a musician. This song is something that I've tried to write a couple times. But they nailed it
"Unique in our own Wretchedness" is a fire record name idea.... Good one!
Bro this song is too fucking relatable. This along with the chorus of their song "dig it" from NeX GEn.
Bruh I hate how relatable dig it is sometimes but also can’t stop replaying lmao
This is so on point with being an addict.
“I know I told you I was out of the woods
But I left a key under the mat for the wolves”
The suicidal thoughts that come along with using is some of the strongest feelings I’ve ever felt. I’m so glad they put this song out and things like it. You have no idea how close some of the people are to the edge that you are around at work, the store, church, etc. I promise you love is the answer.
Bring Me The Horizon saved my life. It's like those stories where someone is about to end their life but hears a kind of calling that makes them change their mind. When I heard the song (sleepwalking), I realized it described exactly what I was feeling-a cry, a release. Later, I learned about Oliver's story and concluded that just as he went through all that and came out okay, I could too.
Same they did save my life aswell
I love the way that ending beat carries out with the vocals.
As an addict myself, I wonder if the title N/A actually is a reference to Narcotics anonymous (AA but for more hard drugs) I don’t know if it’s a thing in America but we have it in the UK and I’d imagine oli would of gone to it and with that intro as well
its a big thing in the us actually went to like a 100+ person meeting
@@HarrietTubmanPvP wow! That’s crazy the biggest meeting I’ve been to was about 50 people and that was a CA meeting
It is definitely the reason for the title
It definitely is, the whole intro is basically how you introduce yourself at the meetings lol
I feel as she’s a clinician that she’s doing it in a supportive way.
She's too happy for the emotion portrayed in the song.
I was thinking the same all the video, like I know it's a catchy melody but I can't vibe that way to those lyrics, it is another type of feeling, Idk how to explain it
@@LastHyllian i can, due to the way my life has been sometimes and the way i deal with things I actually find it much easier to vibe to lyrics like that than something overtly happy
For me I relate so much with the lyrics I feel way more comfortable vibing to this song than any others
I'm always bopping my head to this song. Cause I relate to the feelings and know the contrast between the lyrics and Oli's tone.
@@LastHyllian Gonna jump on the bandwagon with the others, "normal happy" songs makes me sad, while "sad songs" makes me feel free
Should definitely react to Hospital for souls & Deathbeds.
Sleepwalking too
Hospital for Souls is my psychiatrist. Holy shit the lyrics is insanely crafted
I never understood the concept of group meetings for addiction. How can other broken people fix you. But then i realized that your loved ones try to understand what you going through and try to be supportive but in a way because they dont understand the situation it makes you feel more isolated even with all their good intentions. Group meetings is where u can connect with others that truly gets you and their experience can help u to be a better version of yourself.
This new bring me the horizon album is a jam! I’ve listened twice today already haha
I listened to it about 10 times in a day
@@MrLinkinJason haha I made it to about 5 times lol it’s so different but sooooo good
This song…when you’re on the bright side of the wagon, is so validating. When you’re on the dark side, I still feel heard, but it’s a reminder of what it means to fail with the best intentions.
Oli has had a lot of songs about his addictions, but to me, this is first time he’s been direct about it.
This is literally how I reacted hearing this. It's relatable, and just an absolute BOP
One of my favorite songs on the album. I love how BMTH makes songs that are so devastating when you listen to the lyrics but go off so hard with the sound.
Your enthusiasm on this subject is so great
Day 1 requesting 1x1 also by Bring Me The Horizon
Also, I'm not going to put everything in this comment, it would be really long. But I'm at the point where it feels like everyone just lies through their teeth, you know? "Better days are coming" or "It'll get better" or "This isn't forever" are among the most common phrases I get when I do open up to people in my life. But things have been bad for almost seven years now (got depression at 13, almost 20 now). Everything I drag myself up, something big drags me back down, and each time it's something worse and harder to recover from. It doesn't get better for me, it doesn't seen to end, and I wish I knew why. I wish I knew what I did to deserve this, because maybe then I could get better
I’m 29, been depressed since 11. It might get better, it might not. But the only way to find out if it’s gonna get better is to stick around to experience the full story. You’re right, people give platitudes even though they haven’t lived our type of life, but as someone also going through sh**, don’t give up, find something you find worth living for. Much love from one internet stranger to another, brother.
Gaes
Just made 4 years off heroin a couple weeks ago, time flies once you get clean lol. This definitely relatable if you suffer or have from substance abuse before
Stay strong!
I am still convinced, after watching many of these reaction videos, the input is still set to webcam instead of microphone
When I first heard this, it took me a moment to realize what he was doing and it just hit me hard. This album hit at just the rigjt moment for me as I was (still am) going through some things including having addiction issues throughout my whole adult life with too many things as well as substances. I still have a few vices but not as many as I used to. I know Oli doesnt want to be a savior but hes been just thst for a lot of us.
Not sure if anyone has said this yet, but him leaving "a key under the mat for the wolves" was most likely referencing his relapse during COVID quarantine, so your analysis was spot on
This song is the most relatable for me. I’m a drug addict and a bad alcoholic. I can feel the changes alcohol and drugs have made and still make to my internal body and I see what it’s done externally. It’s a hard battle, it’s one I’m not sure I’ll overcome, but I hold a spot in my heart for addicts. Yes some of us suck, yes some of us rob and steal, but there’s a reason that we let drugs or alcohol take over our lives. We have so much pain and then once we get caught up in these habits we will do anything to get ourselves high or drunk. It’s an escape, and for some of us we do escape life thru OD, suicide, or long term effects of using, and that breaks my heart. I hope for myself and every addict out there to get better
You definitely need to react to “dig it” on their new album
So deep!!!
9th sobriety birthday...lol. my typing sucks
congrats!
Congratulations
Let's go bro, only one more to a decade. You got this 💪
@@MrMonochrome1 one day at a time brother
How's it going brother?
I absolutely love the ending of this song. Yelling "Where did it go wrong?", a cry of despair and hopelessness. But the guitar and bass bend up to complete the chord and make it major, ending with a hopeful tone. This signifies the process that is visible in the entire album: you can't start to truly heal until you understand and acknowledge the root of your issues. Once you do, it can only go up from there.
Well from my experience, when I relapsed in 2002 i immediately believed the lies I told myself about myself again! Once I broke the 3rd step contract….
There wasn’t any takesie backsie and for 26 months I destroyed everything worthwhile in life
Ya gotta get done but it seems every bottom had a trap door
In rehab listening to this song 24/7
you should listen to the whole album since its a concept album with very compelling themes.
Probably in my top two from the new album alongside Dig it would love to see a reaction to that as well
This is my favorite song out of the album. Fully encampsulates my thoughts, so relatable.
She clearly got an eargasm
Being a known addict for almost 14 years I still have a hard time opening up to my failures in my recovery because the shame of letting those around me down weighs heavy on my shoulders. Even knowing they’ve been in the same place as me or worse. The only times I can openly state when I’ve relapsed is when I’m caught and forced to deal with it
From Micro: @ccmustanggt99 Shame is a brutal feeling, my friend. Thank you so much for posting. Recorded a video/voice reply for you here: www.loom.com/share/830075c4f04b49d18938bca6744ee9a2 - Hold Fast. :heart:
@@HeartSupport thank you so much for the kind words. It means a lot
I think it was interesting when he mentioned "leaving a key under the mat for the wolves" because it feels that he's eluding that he's leaving a door open for relapse
and then u must reaction dig it! this lyric in this song so fuckin’ hit me up :(
Having trouble with sobriety, when being drunk is honestly one of my favorite things in life to do.
Been sober for 6 years and this song speaks to me on a level I never thought it could
We need basically the whole album.
Lost and Strangers for sure!!!
Everything I hear this song tears keep on welling up. I've never been an addict to anything but the chorus just describes how I feel on a daily basis
This song really resonates with me. The whole song i feal like that but The line, make love to a chainsaw, really hits hard for me
her energy and videos just always brightens my day bro. even after the hardest day.
My good friend would have been so stoked to hear this song. Unfortunately she passed away 3 years ago from overdose. Her favorite BMTH song at the time was Sugar Honey & Tea.
I think that be an addict doesn't mean just sustances, sometimes it could be addiction to someone, to some behaviors, it could be everything that you could be stuck with
i also recommend Dig It. way too relatable in life right now. such a masterpiece of an album
Been sober for over 3 years now .because of my kids I had a moment of clarity and quit alcohol it was hard but I’ve never looked back .i have lost loads of weight im more healthy and a far better person ..
This album completely caught me off guard. I wasn't really sure what to expect after they cancelled the three EP plan. It took me a couple of playthroughs of the record to decipher if I like it and as of right now it's one of the four records I listened to in the last six months I love most.
Yes, This Song Has a Deep Meaning other people just need to understand it Deeply.
Like me I feel that way before.
Easily my favosong on the album. It actually kick started my path to sobriety snd helped get me into AA. I owe Oli a huge thank you
Hi...my name's Robert and I'm an addict. It's been 4 years, 6 months, 17 days. I've gone through a lot. My story is too long and personal to just share on yt but I'm still here. @HeartSupport
From runner12: @robertsmith6439 Hi Robert! I so appreciate you being here and sharing with us! I’m sorry you have gone through so much and deal with addiction where every day can feel like a battle. I’m so encouraged though because of your last sentence…You are still here and that’s amazing! That tells me you are a fighter and that there is hope within you. No matter how hard it gets you still wake up to another day and you haven’t given up. There is purpose in your life. You matter and despite the struggle there is hope! We are here for you if you decide to share more of your story. You are not alone and I’m praying for strength for you as you face each day! Keep fighting and remember that you are loved.
From lu2910: @robertsmith6439 Hi Robert, I'm glad you've reached out to us. First off, huge congratulations. To have been sober for such a long time is no small achievement. You have demonstrated such strong willpower and determination to keep this sobriety. You should feel very proud of yourself for this amazing battle that you are conquering and know that you are so incredibly strong for doing so.
We are so grateful that you are still here. Right now, I am grateful that I am talking to such a brave person and able to hear about your journey. I don't want to make you feel forced to open up, but if you ever do feel comfortable sharing your story, know that HeartSupport is the perfect place for it, no matter how long. I know that personally I would be more than happy than take the time to read your story and talk with you further.
Know that you are not a failure, you are a very loved person who is an overcomer. I would not even call you an addict, I know there is so much more to who you are, your purpose, your character that defines you more than your past addiction. I am so proud of your journey, and I wish you nothing but the best for every step you take and for each day. You are so loved, remember that my friend! <3
i love her energy
I JUST FOUND THIS CHANNEL AND I'M IN LOVE WITH IT, PLEASE DO MORE BMTH
“But I still left a key under the mat for the wolves”
Mmmmm actually readying his breakdown at the end hurts more than it did initially
Man this spoke to me. What good song and good message. Rock on!🤘
Been there several times evidently. Wake up in the morning and the first thing I think of is going to bed
im not an addict, but i relate to this song SO MUCH with my anxiety and depression, especially telling people youre okay now, then dropping back into the pit. My dog just died and everything is just hell
Also: fun fact - i went to their tour and the crowd bits were recorded there😄
You should react to the song called "Dig it" from their new album, it's really emotional.
My and my buddies joke about wrapping our bikes around a tree all the time. Just say this song speaks to us
This song was hard for me to hear but has really helped open up the conversation more. I dont tell my girlfriend how much i control the urge to drink when even the smallest inconvenience hits. Its just something you gotta live with and being afraid to talk about it only makes it worse
I didn't realize people didn't like this song until i read these comments. This and Lost are the two highlights of the album in my opinion and i haven't listened to them since Suicide Season(2008 album)
Step brother recommended i give their new music a shot and i was NOT disappointed at all by this album.
Maybe their best work yet, for me personally it hit home from the first lines. The timing & synchronicity the day after relapsing at my window proves their spot on in tune & in total harmony with my universal experience & this world we live in! F#cking legends
I have notes. 😊 We are ashamed when we relapse, and this is tough because you're not trying to blame others, but the support dries up really quick if you do relapse. If you decide to kick everyone is right there and supportive, you relapse and most of those people disappear. It's a shame spiral that easily leads you back to using.
The question at the end is answered by the drawings throughout the song. All are childlike or done in a child's style.
Great reaction and thanks for what you do. It's a unique voice, and appreciated.
The underware line is a double entendre. One, his drug of choice slows your heart rate way down. The other meaning is self love. Sometimes you just can't leave the house and have desires even when you're trashed. As much as I thought Shadow Moses was going to be my favorite BMTH, this took over top spot for me.
Everyone that went to BMTH concert this year knows they could possibly be in the song because or well atleast in Glasgow he got us to say “hello Ollie you fuckin knobhead” in unison
Ya this song hit home for me im a recovering addict and have a lot of mental health issues i had to work through it cost me a lot my marriage everything i owned but the moment i looked into my ex wife’s eyes on our last big fight and seen the hurt I’ve caused the pain i caused i took my separation and a picture of her into rehab and stayed till i was okay i wanted to give up but just couldn’t let her down anymore i got out in December to get served with the divorce papers but also took over a business that’s going extremely good and i started a program at the shop if you test positive for drugs you have to options go to rehab on my expense or lose your job
If i looked out my windows and saw nothing but buildings id jump out my window.
The song legit came out the perfect time. I was clean for 6 months but relapse hard this month. Still haven’t found a way out because it’s so easy to pretend everything is fine but all I feel is shame.
BMTH always releases songs at the perfect time ever since I was a teen 😂
From Micro: @H.E.M. Yes, shame is a powerful emotion and such an overwhelmingly present one when you navigate the realms of relapse. For a significant time you have experienced how it feels to be clean, to have control over your own addiction, to feel maybe like regaining a sense of ownership over your life as a whole. It feels like being on this ascending road where one brick helps you take the next step, then another one, then another... the vicious cycle slowly becomes a virtuous one. It feels good to finally see light again after having known what real darkness looks like.
But then suddenly reality seems to brutally slap you on the face... an unexpected event, a moment of vulnerability, an emotional trigger activates raw feelings in you, a loss, an unwanted life change... and you find yourself feeling like you're just back to square one. That somehow all your efforts during all these months would have amounted to nothing. Feels like falling so brutally from top to bottom without any safety net to catch you. At this place, you wonder how you're going to move up again, or if it's even worth it to try again...
It's really hard when it feels like you are battling with forces that seem to have level 10+ strength while you are beginning to build your own muscles. Recovery does feel like taking one step forward and three backwards most of the time. And relapses are such a peak expression of it, making you navigate through this roller-coaster of emotions with a long stop at the "shame" station.
Wishing to bring hope here for you in this place of darkness: there are more stations after this one, and they worth continuing for. The shame that you feel now is absolutely understandable, although it is also through these moments of relapse that healing occurs. That we learn how valuable it train our self-compassion muscle, and to keep on celebrating the actual steps we're taking, the energy we're pouring into our own healing too.
My friend: 6 months is such a HUGE milestone, and in no way your relapse would ever erase any of it. You have proven to yourself during these 6 months that you ARE capable of experiencing life without the addiction. You've had a firsthand experience of how that feels, and that speaks so much of your own strength and resilience there. This is real experience, real results, real proof of what you *can* do.
Please don't let the shame sink too deep. It is an understandable reaction that deserves to be heard and to have space somehow. But you don't deserve to let it be a destination. You deserve way much more, and so much better. For your journey keeps unfolding. There's still beautiful adventures for you ahead. And a version of you that will look back to this day while feeling so proud of how much you've accomplished.
You.got.this. Someone out there believes in you. :heart:

@@HeartSupport thank you so much for this message. ❤️ Didn’t expect to tear up today🥹 I’m gonna take it day by day. God bless you.
They might not have used the takes we did but imma say it forever "I'm in a bmth song". They recorded the gang vocals at the UK shows
Top 10 Statues that cried blood off the same album is such a great song for this theraputicness.
I often visit that dark place. Bands like BMTH and Disturbed help me to get out of it.
“Make love to a chainsaw” FELT 😂
First time I found a meeting at the end of a cobble stone street, down some stairs at the back of an alley in Seattle's Pike Place Market, I was scared shitless to voice out loud in front of everyone that I needed a sponsor........ I surely wasn't telling all of my problems.
Love youre reactions!! They help me understandig myself and my thoughts better. Thank you for that :)
Please react also to "Dig it" from this Album!
n/a is easily one of my favorites form this album, it’s such a banger I feel bad for the wanting to jam to it sometimes, I do hope Olie is ok for whatever it matters as some internet rando
Favorite song of the album, No Doubt
I connect way too much with this whole album, but this song hits me so hard..
In 2020 i tried to end everything. I wont go into the details but i figured it was the genuine end for me.
4 years later my life is better than i ever could have imagined. I have a beautiful girlfriend, wonderful kids and a job i generally enjoy. I find it hard to relate to the person i was back then but when i hear this i recognise that pain so profoundly.
You said it perfectly. It makes us realise we are not alone and whether youre in the midst of it or out the other side, talking about it can only be a good thing.
Was amazing to be a part of the crowd vocals on this too. Also, i cried when hearing Doomed live because when i was at my lowest that was the song i related to the most. Love this band and really enjoyed this reaction and insight. Liking and subscribing now 😊
N/A was literally the greatest song on the album
"i know i told i was out of the wood but i still left a key under the mat for the wolves" got me i have been trying to get sober for years and when i relapsed i wouldnt tell my girlfriend scared she would leave. i left key aswell as that high was always a saftey net for me when things got to hard. eventually she left because i wouldnt tell here when i relapsed and i grabbed that key again. this isnt a one time battle its a forever war that will always be hard to fight. one thing my therapist said is you cant start climbing up til youve hit rock bottom after i started seeing her when i did hit rock bottom. im still trying my ass of today and im just happy i have a song i can show my new girlfriend when she eventually asks about the addictions i have. i dont want to hide my shame only want to kill my pride. oose.
From KyleGouldOfficial: @FyreFli This is quite understandable wanting to keep addiction to yourself it not easy to show other at time especially in a relationship of what we are actually dealing with inside.
Glad the lyrics and song connected to you and allowed you to open up about this struggle you're dealing. Sometimes addiction are hard to fight and trying to get sober may feel like a major battle. But holding it inside only makes us feel worse for not opening up about this struggle. Honestly we all make mistakes time and time again we have our imperfections and wounds we carry. So, opening up is going to be hard at times especially when you're trying to keep a relationship but also keeping it inside only going to make us feel worse about not telling them. So if you chose to open up about this addiction definitely a level of understanding is needed with this. But don't keep things inside you're not alone in what you're dealing with inside. Hope this helps you through what you're facing.
Take Care & Hold Fast.
From bombdiggity: @FyreFli Hey there.
Thanks for reaching out to Heart Support.
Music is very powerful. I, too express a lot of my past & emotion through songs. It helps me find the words I cannot find & express the emotion I am too worried of showing face to.
I’m sorry about your break up. It is hard to come face to face w/ our demons. Let alone tell someone about it. But I’m glad you have know that you should talk about it… & aren’t suppressing those emotions. Thats golden advise from your therapist by the way! Its very very true.
Thats all part of healing process.
Keep it up! You’re doing your very best. & are doing a great job!
Take care of yourself.<3
Hey iam in they same road but lately iam taking care mine self pretty please take care of yourself and you are not alone iam so sure that you make someone happy and you matter in this world! And i hope you have 1 animal animal's really helping your physiology! 💙🥹
@@JohnYtk-e6i hey man i appreciate the message and hope all is going well. i wish there was a way we can talk more lord knows i need it and it would help. stay healthy and stay good brother. and remember dont hide your shame just kill your pride. oose. much love
Whole album saved me and watching your reactions! 💯 I have epilepsy
this is a beautiful reaction video 😅🤘
Maybe me putting too much into a interpretation of a song but I would guess Oliver is describing how he is basically in a "Meeting" with his demons aka alone with himself.
This song made me a BMTH fan very recently
My favourite song of the album next to strangers and lost
I absolutely adore this new album. Please react to Top 10 Statues
A couple of thoughts:
1) Narcotics Anonymous is generally written as NA, so the title has a double meaning by being written as n/a (not applicable).
2) I feel like most people haven't heard the expletive "Fuck me sideways with a chainsaw". It sounds like Oli is breaking it down over two lines like "Get fucked" isn't enough, so I'm going to throw in the chainsaw bit.
But, the problem is, at least in my case, I really don't want to disappoint or let down people who've been supporting me, because I know how valuable the support is, and how craved I am for the support. A lot of time I did disappoint them (at least in my mind) for so many things I'm unable to do yet, and when that happen, things kind of went back to square zero, where I'm so ashamed about myself, shut down, keep quiet, and my minds will just filled again with dark thoughts.
From Micro: @julianari8768 It's rerally hard to deal with the pressure of not wanting to disappoint the people who support you. You know how much their support means to you, and you crave it so deeply, but at the same time there's this constant fear of letting them down that haunts you and overshadows your interactions together. It's exhausting to feel like the support given to you must produce results, otherwise it would feel like you'd be letting down the people in your life who spent time and attention on you. And that sense of disappointment, whether it’s real or imagined, can start to be even more important for you than receiving support. Help doesn't become something made for you, but something conditioned by whether or not others would see you getting better or not. It drags you back to that place where you feel ashamed of yourself, where it’s easier to shut down and keep quiet rather than face those feelings. It makes you feel small, unworthy, and like you don’t deserve the care and support you’re getting.
The cycle of shutting down, retreating into yourself really is a vicious cycle. You start to fill up with dark thoughts, and it feels like you’re back at square one. It's frustrating because you know you’ve made progress, but in those moments it’s hard to see it All you can focus on is the sense of failure and the fear that you’re letting everyone down. So it feels like you have to hide parts of yourself. You’re caught in this paradox where the very thing you need the most feels out of reach because of how you’re feeling inside.
I can only imagine how draining it is to keep going through this cycle, wanting so badly to make the people around you proud but feeling like you’re falling short. It’s a constant battle that is strong of you to acknowledge here. Being aware of this pattern at play *is* strength and shows perspective over the situation. You are not just letting it take over, you ar enot just enduring it, you are also understanding how it's functioning and how it affects you. You *are* naming th estruggle, allowing you to detach yourself from it, an deventually work on it too. Overall, this situation doesn’t make you weak or broken. It shows shows how much you care about the people you love, which is also beautiful.
You’re doing the best you can and that’s enough. It’s okay to struggle and to have days where it feels like you’re not making any progress. It's okay to let people you love know about it, and experience firsthand that when you love someone, you are not expecting them anything else than to be themselves. You are allowed to grow and heal at your own pace, and setbacks *are* a part of the journey. :heart:

I fucking love this girl. The vibes
MY lyrics:
Hi, my name's Benjamin and I'm an addict (Hi, Benjamin)
I'm here 'cause I'm not quite all there
'Cause what used to be my idea of a laugh is
Now just me checking my pulse in my underwear
Thinking I should drop dead, eat ____, go to Hell
I could jump headfirst out the window
Dark thoughts keep on filling up in my mind, oh-oh (yes, i have dark thoughts, ALWAYS.)
Kinda wanna get ______, make love to a chainsaw
Wrap my drop-top 'round a lamppost
Not sure I'll be coming back down this time
Hello, Benjamin, you _______ knobhead
Yeah
Did you think you had us fooled?
And, baby, I know that I told you I was out of the woods
But I still left a kеy under the mat for the wolvеs
So maybe I should drop dead, eat ____, go to Hell
I could jump headfirst out the window
Dark thoughts keep on filling up in my mind, woah
Kinda wanna get ______, make love to a chainsaw
Wrap my drop-top 'round a lamppost
Not sure I'll be coming back down this time
____ it
Got out on good behaviour
I'm sorry, kid, but I can't be your saviour
I don't know what you expected
So maybe I should drop dead, eat ____, go to Hell
I could jump headfirst out the window
Dark thoughts keep on filling up in my mind
Kinda wanna get ______, make love to a chainsaw
Wrap my drop-top 'round a lamppost
Not sure I'll be coming back down this time (Time)
'Cause I'm _______ losing it, get a grip, ignore all the signs
The voices in my head keep telling me I'm fine (i also have this)
Out of luck, what the ____?
What am I gonna do?
Where did i go wrong?
'Cause I'm fucking losing it, get a grip, ignore all the signs.
The voices in my head keep telling me I'm fine.
Out of luck, what the fuck? What am I gonna do?

This is my favourite song on the album as i was at the manchester gig and we sang the lyrics to olly amazing 🤘🏻🎸😈🔥
This album is a masterpiece. And even though it's closely about oli's experience's, there's also a huge lore bk story about an apocalypse,the 1st ep was about that, then this is about the aftermath and how people are coping with it, there's cool characters,eve and Sophie, Oli being a character also. Sykey or something. Need to rewatch and get name right maybe 😂😂
Great reaction as always. Dig it or too 10 statues that cried blood. Such a cool album with aits cleverly thought out story aswell it's inner meaning. I totally connect because of my past with addiction because of abuse. Makes me feel like I'm not alone. And oli's voice is just the icing on the cake. Delicious 😋
So.. I have the attention span of a squirrel and have to watch this twice because the ropes outside of the window distracted me.
I hope you do more reactions of this album, it's so deep. DIg It, youtopia, top 10 statues 😭
As soon as you said the word wretchedness... I immediately had to come tell you that you need to react to Trivium - The Wretchedness Inside
this is my favorite song on the album it's really catchy has a breakdown and is my experiences
