The metal vocalist vinny is actually a friend of mine were putting together another band we have been writing and practicing and plan to make a spotify and start posting songs to it then end of this year
Coming back to this after a couple years of abstinence. This music used to be my everyday soundtrack when I was 14 and since then it has been stuck in my head. I'll never stop loving and listening this song and this band💕
I'll try and keep this short. I found you guys so many years ago while bartending in downtown Des Moines Iowa. I loved everything you put out. After years of alcohol abuse I made the choice to officially become sober. This song has helped me more than you will ever know. I love music that touches the soul, and I relate to both sections of this song. I am happy to say I am 3 months sober today, and after almost 2 decades of heavy drinking, I can fight this. Thanks for writing such a beautiful mental health, addiction ( that's how I see it ) song. You guys are amazing!! Now. Where's the new music lol.
Revisiting this afternoon years and it still holds up in today's standards. These dudes would have gone far. It's a damn shame they broke up. Damn shame. Get back together dudes!! Make an epic comeback.
Thank you guys this song is helping me heal my depression and my anxiety pain I fought for many days thank you this song really touched me so much because I had fight all my demons of my past life I suffered with my life and yeah this song really tells me not to give up my life I’m a fighter myself and a suicidal survivor as well amazing track kick ass song lyrics video y guys really helped me in your music so much I’m crying in tears guys this is amazing heartfelt track get deep emotion in the vocals amazing job my friends u saved my life and my soul thank you 🙏 love you guys so much u are my heroes love u guys 🔥👍
I saw my brother hanging from a rope. my other brother showed me this song. I would play it over and over and over again. Breaking everything around me. screaming. This song helped me through a rough time. Grant I still feel the pain every day. I visualize my brother every time I close my eyes. But each time I feel the pain. I smoke one for him. blare this song. and feel it get easier. I want to meet the people who made this song and thank them personally.
+Michael Daniels No need to thank any of us. I'm so sorry for your loss. We are thankful that we can help you in any way. - Logan - and Above The Broken.
sucks that we won't be getting music from these guys anymore, if they made an album that was as good as this and "Separate Roads" they would be signed immediately
I love these screams. And the double bass in like all their songs. So awesome. One of my favorite bands, can't wait till this album actually comes out..
I love this song because it tells a story of the struggle many of us have of fighting against our dark half. In other words, the struggle between the good and evil within ourselves. Sometimes to relate to songs we have to reflect them upon our lives and sometimes others ,in general, as well.
There is something that you're always running from But you can't run from me I am your conscience speaking and this is What I see... I see the fear in your eyes As you run & hide Your body's going numb, you're slowly dying on the inside This feeling haunts me everyday The only thing to do is pray No one can save me from myself or this hell I've created I'm trapped in my mind, it's a prison cell When I become so jaded? Mirror, mirror on the wall Is there any point at all? The reflection that I see Only shines to show me Better days and better nights, And better times when I felt alive The deception that I see Has sadly taken over me I cannot run, I cannot hide I cannot find myself tonight. I know, I know This isn't easy When you let go,let go The pain stops Because I know it's hard to see now But I promise, it'll be okay I know, I know This isn't easy When you let go,let go The pain stops Because I know it's hard to see now But I promise you that we can change Yeah! This all makes me sick to my stomach You can't run from your past so give it up I see the void in my eyes, it's always calling I hear the voice I try to hide, it's always calling I can't always believe what's looking back at me All these voices that I hear Are they angels? Are they demons? Or the dark half that I fear? Mirror, mirror on the wall Is there any point at all? The reflection that I see only shines to show me Better days and better nights And better times when I felt alive The deception that I see Has sadly taken over me I cannot run, I cannot hide I cannot find myself tonight. I know, I know This isn't easy When you let go,let go The pain stops Because I know it's hard to see now But I promise, it'll be okay I know, I know This isn't easy When you let go,let go The pain stops Because I know it's hard to see now But I promise you that we can change I thought I can make myself change Just give you're up worthless No! I'M NOT! I CAN'T! I can fight this I CAN FIGHT THIS!
I'm doing a clean vocal cover of this. The first time I listened to it, I thought it was mediocre vocally, but after I listened to it a second time, I couldn't stop singing and screaming it. The instruments are amazing, and now I'm in love with the vocals. My Vocal cover is coming along well :)
What is all this, "If you don't like it, just leave" mentality? As a member of a Metal band, I can say that most of us enjoy the negative almost as much as the positive. We love supportive fans, but no band needs a military defending their music.
I had a feeling that if I clicked on this it would be awesome and I was not disapointed haha, great song guys! Keep it up and I would come see you if you came to the east coast!
Me, My And Hyde - Ice Nine Kills. I Created A Monster - The Animal In Me The Dark Half - Above The Broken Like, my 3 favorite songs and they all talk about the same thing xD.
They might just not be listening to the right style for their taste. There is no factually 'bad music', it all depends on the listeners taste. Whether or not a song is good, and how good it is, is a matter of opinion. While this song means a lot to me for personal reasons and I simply adore it, others are entitled to their personal opinion. I will not be mad because someone does not have the same taste that I do, nor will I get into a fight over who's opinion is right, because neither is wrong. There's no point. Listen to what you like, don't listen to what you don't. It's very simple.
But it *is* generic. This genre on the whole is extremely generic. I could pull a playlist made up entirely of bands that sound just like this. Breakdown intro, screaming, bridge, screaming, painful clean vocals, subtle synth, repeat. That's not to say it's bad but I do not think it is a genre that will be round for very long. Each to his own and all that though, it's not my place to tell you (or your grandpa) what to listen to.
alfie...65 Doesn't every type of music follow the same pattern? If you listen to a country song they'll probably all sound pretty similar because they follow the same music patterns (or because country sucks)
To a degree, there are formulaic genres and non-formulaic genres. Heck, I love hardcore and the majority of that will sound the same to a non-discerning listener. It just seems that every time I listen to a band of this type then it sounds exactly the same as the last one I listened to (I am not an expert by any means, so if there is anyone that is taking the genre by the balls and doing something different, then I am all ears). And we are definitely agreed on country music, what a load of horseshit.
alfie...65 Yeah fair enough it can sound very similar. I don't particularly think that's a bad thing because I like the way it sounds so I don't really mind a band or song that sound like generic other bands or songs
Man, these lyrics aren't good. I could pretty much predict every other line. The state of metal/metalcore/post hardcore/whatever is very stale right now. This isn't bad, it's just nothing to remember. There's nothing different about it. Give me some lines that stick in my head! We, as a community, should ban the lyrics: eyes, alive, night, falling, run, conscience, fear and alive.
I do agree. The clean part sounded good, but I loved that really dark, in the mind/conscience experience. I still do like it, I just wish the vibe wasn't killed by the chorus. Still a very good song though.
TheTitanSlayers because what you said wasn't immature at all? fuck off then and watch something you like, be 'mature' about it and follow your own advice. Hypocrite ftw.
My agenda since last night: Found this band and listened to them for an hour, realized it was 1 in the morning, went to sleep, woke up and went to work, came home and started where i left off last night. i fuckin love your music!
omg i cant believe how exact this song is to my own thoughts and then the chorus hits and i start to feel a little better lol. amazing work Above the Broken. oh and your breakdowns are my favorite ever FR
Every song I hear released progressing forward from the Sins EP is more and more amazing, you guys keep improving and bringing real stuff to the table, keep it up, it's only a matter of time before your hard work pays off. Love the new jam.
I'm hearing some plot in you influence coming from the guitars, breakdowns and especially opening riff, check out rat poison by them. vocalist reminds me of Chris roetter from like moths to flames.
Omg, This is like the best new song ive heard in such a long time, I almost given up on music. Thank you guys for not changing and keeping to your style :) cant wait for the new album !!
In my opinion, this song is amazing. After a while, a lot of songs are going to sound similar, because there are only so many breakdowns possible. But that is where a band's signature sound comes in. The vocals are diverse in range and his singing is fantastic.
A shame these boys aren't around anymore. Their stuff kicks ass.
Sad

Catchy song and meaningful lyrics. What more could you ask for?
I agree
Wow. I remember when they released this :( it's been over a decade.
In 2020 this song still gives me chills. Just the singing beat the drop Just everything about it was a good song
one of the best lyric videos I've ever seen
BRUH.

It's fucking epic.
These guys are in the most talented ones. Like or do whatever you want if you agree with my opinion
I saw my brother hanging from a rope. my other brother showed me this song. I would play it over and over and over again. Breaking everything around me. screaming.

NOSTALGIA IS THE BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN!
I have to come back to this song every now and then. I just love this song
sucks that we won't be getting music from these guys anymore, if they made an album that was as good as this and "Separate Roads" they would be signed immediately
I love the scary feeling with the buildup. Like someone is about to snap. Gives me chills every time.
can you guys come back sometime and just throw an ep together for shizz and gitts
I love these screams. And the double bass in like all their songs. So awesome. One of my favorite bands, can't wait till this album actually comes out..
Not a huge fan of the screams but this has a lot of potential. Keep it up guys!!
Gods I haven't heard this in years. Holds up so well I wish they could make more music
Holy shit the "I see the fear in their ..." sounded almost identical to the "I see the greed in their eyes!" from Memphis May Fire's: Prove Me Right
Never thought I'd say this, but this songs helping me right now at this point in my life... Thank you.
Thanks guys for all the love on our new song. Means a lot to us. Check up on the video desciption to get the link to buy the single!
Never forgotten thanks for helping getting me through what I need to get through

The beginning broke my eyes
This is hands down one of the best songs I've heard in a very long time. Very good job!
This guy sounds like Darkest Hour but heavier. I love it.
Still coming here and fucking blaring this!!! Dudes, i need your album!!!!
There is something that you're always running from
But you can't run from me
I am your conscience speaking and this is
What I see... I see the fear in your eyes
As you run & hide
Your body's going numb, you're slowly dying on the inside
This feeling haunts me everyday
The only thing to do is pray
No one can save me from myself or this hell I've created
I'm trapped in my mind, it's a prison cell
When I become so jaded?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Is there any point at all?
The reflection that I see
Only shines to show me
Better days and better nights,
And better times when I felt alive
The deception that I see
Has sadly taken over me
I cannot run, I cannot hide
I cannot find myself tonight.
I know, I know
This isn't easy
When you let go,let go
The pain stops
Because I know it's hard to see now
But I promise, it'll be okay
I know, I know
This isn't easy
When you let go,let go
The pain stops
Because I know it's hard to see now
But I promise you that we can change
Yeah!
This all makes me sick to my stomach
You can't run from your past so give it up
I see the void in my eyes, it's always calling
I hear the voice I try to hide, it's always calling
I can't always believe what's looking back at me
All these voices that I hear
Are they angels?
Are they demons?
Or the dark half that I fear?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Is there any point at all?
The reflection that I see only shines to show me
Better days and better nights
And better times when I felt alive
The deception that I see
Has sadly taken over me
I cannot run, I cannot hide
I cannot find myself tonight.
I know, I know
This isn't easy
When you let go,let go
The pain stops
Because I know it's hard to see now
But I promise, it'll be okay
I know, I know
This isn't easy
When you let go,let go
The pain stops
Because I know it's hard to see now
But I promise you that we can change
I thought I can make myself change
Just give you're up worthless
No!
I'M NOT!
I CAN'T!
I can fight this
I CAN FIGHT THIS!
yeah. this song is like.. exactly how im feeling. thanks for the songs and helping me not feel alone.. keep it up.
We have two EP's and we are releasing an LP at the beginning of summer. We are from OREGON!

1 hour ago I didn't know this band existed, now I have an iTunes playlist for them lol
Amazing band, can't wait to hear more!
When a metal song makes you cry..
Just as I was thinking "wow I need to find a new AWESOME band" I find these guys and now I can't stop listening. Song gets better every time I listen
The video though.. Who made this? It's my favorite lyric video out there.

You haven't covered it yet?
Oh shit, I totally forgot about it lol. My camera is crappy, but look for the cover by this Sunday night dude.
yo dawg, their song bores me to death now. Still look for a cover, just not of "the Dark Half"
The clean vocals are amazing. And don't kill me for this, but the screamer for this band reminds me of The Word Alive :O. Really like this!
