I wish songs like this were more popular. I listen to this song every day and it's never got old. Edens voice has an emotional connection to his music and I wish more people listened to him.
Once you fall in love with someone from overseas, this song will mean so much more. I fell in love and had to leave her, for now. Now everyday that I'm away, I think about the day when I'll be able to feel her warm embrace again. God, I miss her.
Why do songs with Deep meanings like this get a littlest views and songs like fucking Hit the Quan gets the trends? Just because you can dance to it doesnt mean it should blow the fuck up, this song deserves a lot more attention than any other famous songs out there right now.
+MonsterLyrics hey nik, grats for the 1M+ views on this track. I was just done binge-viewing all ur EDEN/The Eden Project videos (the whole playlist of it). Keep up with the good work.
I remember listening to this in Greece in the middle of night and feeling so happy and peaceful. It brings back some amazing memories in my life that I can always reflect back on in the hardest of times...
Eden's songs are art, he's probably one of realest artist I've ever heard, I feel like some songs were made for me to listen to it. This one is personally one of his best songs, I love Eden
I remember how I regret hearing the songs I heard about a year ago but I'll never regret finding Eden like I literally fall in love with every song he makes with an actuall meaning behind it unlike other songs #LongliveEden
I'm surprised I'm not crying. I think I'm finally in love with someone, she's everything. Known her for years. Her girlfriend is off and on with her and I'm always there to pick up the pieces. But she loves her.. not me.. but I have to keep being her best friend because one day I want to be not only her best friend but her everything. This song means EVERYTHING. New favorite song.
+Sir AJ man it's crazy how similar our situations are! We can pull through this though, just stay focused, positive and determined and you can get her man trust me!
This gives me so much nostalgia and inspiration for some reason. When I listen to this, I imagine angels and when Eden sings "Things will be better in America, heard the streets were gold there, maybe I can fly you out this place someday" I imagine an angel falling in love with a human. Dear bubble-gum-wrappings, help me-
If you take the songs "Wake Up", "Gravity" and "drugs" and put them together, you will have an extremely precise summary of personality and life. Incredible.
This definitely sounds like a song written for a (former) girlfriend. Some one he had to leave behind to go to America and chase his dream. She might not have told him to stay, she might even had encouraged him to leave for a better place. But he feels as though her feelings contradicted her words, and that she actually wanted him to stay. She didn't want him to leave, she becomes a ghost in his mind telling him that 'the streets of gold' are a lie, that he will fail, that he will fall. He wants to succeed and come back for her, take her to America, a better place. But she ends up symbolizing his own doubts in himself. And I love how at 2:53 some of his other songs overlap the chorus, her unspoken words, and drowns them out. Either meaning that his success drowns out her words so he can't hear her, or that his believes in his own work drowns out the doubting voice in his head. Then at the end when the music becomes louder, more powerful and hopeful, his belief in himself and that he'll make everything up to her is clearer than ever, and her words changes to just 'You're so much better than that' - encouraging him once again, rather than doubt his choices. At least that's my interpretation of this.
when i was 12, i was forced to move to florida to get away from my inadequate home that i was living in, and this song is one of those songs during that time that helped me get through the many thoughts that were going through my head and the guilt i felt from hurting my family members even though they were hurting me more. i love this song with all my heart.
April 2018 and this song still makes me sad, it goes deep into my heart. Makes me think of the people I miss but it also gives me the hope to see them again, one day. I get sentimental every time I listen to this title, keep doing a great job EDEN.
I don’t know who all will see this, but I just feel the need to share this. My best friend died last night in a car accident. I found out this morning, and I’ve never felt so lost in my life. I tried listening to music to help me get through my numb feeling, but this song came on. This song is what made me break more than any other song, any other news. I could only think of him. It’s all I could think of. He had such big dreams, and he wanted me right next to him as he fulfilled it all. I always listen to songs and never really feel what they mean. I guess this song is now the first one where I truly feel something. The last thing I wanted was him leaving my life, everyone’s lives in the area, but he did. I couldn’t imagine him leaving. And now I have to go to school tomorrow and not see him. I wish he could stay a bit longer even. That would be enough to help cope with this. Give me any closure. But his abrupt stop was last night. My heart hurts, and I wish second chances were possible. Someday I may get to see him again. I don’t know. But now with this song. I can imagine him saying it’s okay. That I’ll see him again. It gives me an odd comfort when I have nothing else left of him. If you’ve read this far, thank you. Gatlen McDivitt deserves better than this, and I guess I have to find a way to move on without him. At least I’m no longer numb.
theprofpenguinTM Oh, he'll be there when you fulfill your dreams. Whenever you feel lonely, he's there. And when you get in a car? He's protecting you from something he wasn't protected from. And you miss him, as much as he misses you now. But he wants you to be happy. I know he does. Because true friends are always there.
Till you set fire to my atmosphere And I remember how I spent the 23rd feeling six feet under when I’m 30,000 feet in the air Chasing that sundown So far east I’m westbound Feeling like the end of the world is near. How masterful are those lyrics? EDEN has singlehandedly changed my view on music and even made me think more poetically. This man is amazing and he will forever have changed my life.
'Cause we've been driving so long I can't remember how we got here Or how we survived so long I'm trying to run from our pride At least set fire to my atmosphere And I remember how I spent the 23rd Feeling six feet under when I'm 30, 000 feat in the air Chasing that sundown So far east I'm westbound Feeling like the edge of the world is near But you'll feel better when you wake up Swear to God I'll make up Everything and more when I get back someday This is more than just a phase, love Shooting stars all break up And even though it seems like half the world away Things will be better in America Heard the streets are gold there Maybe I can fly you out this place someday Chasing dreams like I'm on novocaine Screaming through your airwaves Looking back I almost thought I heard you say Stay you're not gonna leave me This place is right where you need to be And why your words gotta mean so much to them And they mean nothing to me So stay you're not what you're hearing 'Cause I've been watching you changing And who said youre one in a million anyway? 'Cause you see only what you want to Your tunnel vision haunts you And you can't see what's wrong with you When you keep sleeping through the PM Eyes wide open when you're dreaming You're sleepwalking Just keep talking Maybe you can talk your way out of this deep end No b plan in your system Just tell me what you'r thinking I'm scared that you might fall But you're not But you're not... And you'll feel better when you wake up Taking off your make up Sun always seems to wash our fears away And it's always shining somewhere I just gotta get there And even though it seems like half the world away Things are better in America Heard the streets are gold there Maybe I can fly you out this place some day Chasing dreams like I'm on novocaine Screaming through your airwaves Looking back I almost thought I heard you say Stay you're not gonna leave me This place is right where you need to be And why your words gotta mean so much to them When they mean nothing to me So stay you're not what you're hearing Cos I've been watching you changing And who said you're one in a million? You're so much better than that You're so much better than that You're so much better than that Stay you're not what you're hearing Cos I've been watching you changing And who said youre one in a million Anyway? And you'll feel better when you wake up Swear to God I'll make up everything and more when I get back some day Chasing dreams like I'm on novocaine Screaming through your airwaves Looking back I almost thought I heard you say You are so much better than that.
This song hits right in the feels specially the chorus "Cause I've been watching you change.." And OMG his voice .. Really one of the best voices I've heard .. So effortless and those voice cracksss AHHH ON POINT !!👌 idk how I didn't know about him earlier
Thank you so much. I found music that's different from all the current mainstream. Good music to sing while playing a guitar, the feeeeeeels on this song! Lol Subscribed, shared, liked, and all that good stuff (:
I can't relate to this song, nor can I relate to the whole love thing, but eden this songs freaking amazing, n I'm happy I was directed to this song so that I can keep up with ur future songs, n I'll luv them all as long as they're as mystical as this one is. may the cosmos watch over you n keep u rocking my friend!
This is beautifully heartbreaking Im trying to move on; this helps and hurts at the same time. The way his voice breaks touches me so deeply! Love Eden!
I can't get enough of this song! the ending has a very high vibration!!! great job EDEN...and monsterlyrics...your at 111 subs! that number is special!! keep doing what your doing
i feel as this song is being the opposite of what your hearing.that would explain the mistake. i mean America is not that great. Lack of government transparency, Erosion of civil liberties, Anti-secularism, Islamophobia, Too-big-to-fail banks, Lack of LGBT rights, Focus on trivial bullshit, Foreign policy, Moneyed influence in government, Lack of affordable higher education, Lack of affordable health care. and come on to be truthful only like a 1/10 people will achieve their dreams. I would mention more, but that would be a waste of time since i probably expanded your mind by now.
It probably is the west and the picture was just taken from the northern angle. It's not always going to look the same in pictures because it's different angles.
This was my favourite song a long time ago later I began to listen to different type of songs and artists today I came back here and I started tearing up in the first 30 seconds (I am 16 years old and I do not cry that often) I don't know what got me maybe it was the nostalgia from back when I was still listening to it
I interpret this song as someone in a shabby/unhealthy relationship, and him trying to get her to feel better, and then maybe he had to leave for war, and he "remembers" her saying "stay you're not gonna leave me" and maybe this is a song about denial or frustration. this song can mean many things, and just because the lyrics say one thing, maybe they have an entire different meaning behind them.
Interesting view! I believe that "she" has more text and that she is the person telling him not to leave while he chases his dreams and leaves her. He then feels sorry and hopes he can make up to her by bringing her with him soon.
If you are listening to this in 2016 as i am, Good job, you have great taste in music this year! :D If you are feeling down now, remember, You'll feel better when you wake up~
I haven't listened to this for months and this has always my favorite song and I was singing it at school for some odd reason. So I came here and remembered why I loved it so much.
It looks like germany france or like that kind of central italian area... Could be Scotland or France but with a cliff face that big id assume central europe... Denmark or Holland maybe even...
in love with those audio waves dancing across the screen, how did you make them? I've been trying to recreate them but all I can do so far is make something that resemble MonsterCat's audio waves
4:15, I get chills when he begins there, his words are forceful and it sounds like he's crying out to her or whoever he's speaking to, powerful song and lyrics
Every place has shit in it that's bad. I live in the middle of the country, in South Dakota. Allergies all the time, annoying tractors, and bad internet. I even have the luck to live away from every town. I'm isolated.
Honestly the ones who say America isnt so great are usually the Americans themselves. To me, im not American but i live here now. Its truly a beautiful place. But i think the lyrics of the song arent to be taken literally, its probably one of those "grass is greener on the other side" kind of things.
Hi future me. if you still remember this song, since how iconic it is to both of us. So, you still alive? Pretty morbid to ask, but I don’t know if you did. Sorry, I hate to start it like this. How’s the transition going? You actually trying with it, or did you give up? I hope not, because I crave it more than ever. Who are your friends? You still friends with ren, rai, and vith? I honestly doubt it. I hope you didn’t go back to you know who. We both miss them. Just get through it, ok? You’ll feel better when you wake up.
Been a month, and I can’t tell what’s changed. A lot has and hasn’t. Rai has drifted off now, and I’m stuck in between two trios, and I don’t know if im happy in either. Chris and Alex just ignore me now anyways, but they still care. It’s not fun with them. Me and ren are good friends still, which is good. Got back into genshin and minecraft, so I’m enjoying that. Not much progress in life, but school is going decent. Options are soon, and it terrifies me. I don’t know what I’ll pick, but I’ll have to soon. See you next month Hazel.
God, it’s only been 4 months? Feels like it’s been a lifetime. Friends are fine at the moment, im currently with ren, vith, alexia, chris, kayla, anu, and demi. raisah created way too much drama with our group and becky, and became friends with kaden again. I tried to get Becky out of that friendship, which eventually ended up in us dating. After a month, I decided that the relationship was too much for me, and I might be aro, which I still don’t know for the life of me, so I broke up with her. It’s been like 3-4 weeks from that, and we’re on good speaking terms now. Me, Chris, and Alexia are good friends. Im closer with alexia more, but when me and chris speak, I know that spark is still there. He’s been going through too much anyways. Me and Ren are as close as we used to be, and are practically inseparable. Me and Vith have a strong love hate relationship, but I’ll always side with them for as long as I can. They’ll never know how much I appreciate them. None of them do. Time to get onto the big event. 3ish weeks ago I decided I have had enough, and grabbed a rope Ren had given me months ago, and was going to hurt myself with it. I messaged childline until an ambulance showed up at 1am. I dealt with Solar and CAHMS for a while, and im hopefully going to get a referral for therapy, but also ASD, so my little silly autism jokes weren’t wrong after all. It’s been a longggggg 4 months, and I can’t wait for the 6 weeks off. Stay alive Hazel, you’re so much better than that. - July 13th, Wednesday Lots of love, Hazel
This is what I feel the song is for me. I'm suffering from depression pretty badly. This is not what Eden means with his song but it's what I felt was the meaning for me. Eden in the majority of the text is like my inner light talking to me. That one little light that keeps pushing me forward. So this will be the lyrics along with my interpretation. Hope you enjoy Cause we've been driving so long(how the days go by) I can't remember how we got here (can't remember what I did to get into depression) Or how we survived so long (survived so much negative shit and yet standing) I'm trying to run from our pride (Trying to run from my pride that's being selfish and trying to solve everything on my own) 'Til you set fire to my atmosphere (Until the emotions that have been bottle explode and burst out of control) And I remember how I spent the twenty-third Feeling six feet under (six feet under the sea. The water are thought, and I'm drowning under them) When I'm 30, 000 feet in the air Chasing that sundown (When I' m in this case my mind living on the future rather than the present ) So far East, I'm Westbound (How I'm bound to my past self yet living in my future self) Feeling like the edge of this world is near (Feeling how the world is over for me) But you'll feel better when you wake up Swear to God I'll make up Everything and more when I get back someday This is more than just a phase, love Shooting stars all break up (Talking about Depression) And even though it seems like half the world away (Talking about how everything seems hopeless and so far away) Things will be better in America (America for me refers to the future, and how bright it can be, hint why the street are gold there) Heard the streets are gold there Maybe I can fly you out this place someday Chasing dreams like I'm on novocain (me literally chasing my dreams as I rather be in the dream world than the real world) Screaming through your airways Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say Stay, you're not gonna leave me(My inner light talking to me. Say you're not gonna leave this reality, aka suicide ) This place is right where you need to be And why your words gotta mean so much to them (Why does your inner negative thoughts gotta mean do much for me when they mean nothing to my light) And they mean nothing to me? So stay, you're not what you're hearing 'Cause I've been watching you changing (My inner light seeing me grow) And who said you're one in a million Anyway? (Who said you're alone in this feeling? Referring to how alone you can feel during depression) 'Cause you see only what you want to (How depression only highlights the bad rather than the good and me giving in) Your tunnel vision haunts you (Tunnel vision in this case is how the depression blinds me from the people who wanna help me out and how it literally makes me have tunnel vision for the bad shit) And you can't see what's wrong (I can't see that this thoughts are wrong, how this voices in my head are wrong) And you keep sleeping through the PM(Sleeping to escape the feeling) Eyes wide open when you're dreaming You're sleepwalking, just keep talking (You're sleepwalking meaning I keep going on auto pilot on how everything is fine, keep talking meaning I should still try to talk about my problems) And maybe you can talk your way out of this deep end (And maybe I can talk my way out of depression) No B plan in your system (Referring to have my body and mind don't find a solution to this, no plan b which can also mean no other way to solve this except death) Just tell me what you're thinking I'm scared that you might fall (Fall in this case that I might end my life) But you're not But you're not hard (That my heart inside is not as hard as my skin outside, what I mean with this I don't show it on the surface that I'm suffering) And you'll feel better when you wake up (Wake up to live another day) Taking off your makeup (Makeup for me is the persona the mask I put on everything to seem okay) Sun always seems to wash our fears away(How light always win over darkness) And it's always shining somewhere (There's always light somewhere in the darkness) I just gotta get there And even though it seems like half the world away Things are better in America (America= the future, gold= how bright and shiny its) Heard the streets are gold there Maybe I can fly you out this place someday Chasing dreams like I'm on novocain Screaming through your airways Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say Stay, you're not gonna leave me This place is right where you need to be(This is the reality where you need to be) And why your words gotta mean so much to them When they mean nothing to me So stay, you're not what you're hearing 'Cause I've been watching you changing And who said you're one in a million You're so much better than that (I'm so much better than that, that in my case is to commit suicide, knowing that it's the only option) (Ohhhh) You're so much better than that (Ohh) (Ohhhh) You're so much better than that (Ohh) Stay, you're not what you were hearing (Ohh) (Stay, you're not what your thoughts say you are) 'Cause I've been watching you changing (Ohh) And who said you're one in a million (Ohh) Anyway? And you'll feel better when you wake up Swear to God I'll make up Everything or more when I get back someday Chasing dreams like I'm on novocain Screaming through your airways Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say You're so much better than that If you have reached till the end I wanna thank you for listening in.

You listen to one Eden song, and you're completely hooked.
Right
thats exactly what happened to me
Plot twist: I don't watch Eden's music
I listen to it
I'm so sorry for saying that
ikr I'm addicted
I just hear my first song by him/her/them an hour ago. (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥｀)
he makes the best depressing music ever
In a good way :T
+MajestycCrouton AJ Ye.

What happen if he collaborate with NF ? A dead dying depressed feel8ng song which hit our soul so hard ?
@@ElanXmusc damn i was thinking the same thing !!! OMG i wish they'd make a featuring together !!
Damn his songs are deep. Anybody feeling sad after hearing his songs.
it makes me feel sad but hopeful :p
Kevin Lim Yes, and then after a while, you begin to really grasp what he is saying, and you will be happy.
;_;
It's more of a relaxed/content feeling for me
+Kevin Lim Dem feelz.
this song makes me miss the ex I don't have
I feel you
+elissa horgan i feel bad for you unless u are 12
+Sea Of Death its good I'm not 12
+elissa horgan haha

Holy shit, I knew this song was powerful, but after actually paying attention to the lyrics, this song is more than just powerful.
yeah its powerfuk
Yeah it's a little sad but it's also kinda sweet. I'm in love with the way he writes his songs and the way his voice just flows
+A Random Wusupyo This is one of the only songs that can bring a tear to my face, I listen to it so much and each time I find more meaning behind it.
[H.R.] JCon F. Exactly.
+[H.R.] JCon F. Can you say me whats the song about? About which second people? Thank you.
who else screams and cries the lyrics when they're upset
...
Im OK :)...

my friend recently past and i never will be the same. but this song helps
Anthony Neyra I'm sorry
At 2:53 Interlude starts in the background :))
And then Nocturne also starts at around 3:07
Ski o
And the song ends at 4:40
Technically 4:39 XP
No just no
Honestly Eden, your voice is a gift from God. As always great song!
Amen
+Rhezzy Ain't God amazing! :D
Amen :3
+Deppressocat Most likely does not exist
You should really keep your atheist life to yourself. Your gonna cause drama, and it won't be good.

You're damn right it's a masterpiece.
+Bob Sherwood Aye ^-^
you?
Loaf sorry, whats a masterpiece? :(
Nver Miind this is masterpiece ❤️
Easily on the best songs EDEN has ever made. No doubt about it.
2:50 you can hear nocturne in your left ear and interlude in your right. omg
How is this not as popular as it should be. Music like Anaconda, Focus, Break Free are not half as good as this.
True story
+Raiyan Ahmed Because of hype trains my freind
Simply because EDEN isn't a mainstream artist which is good.
+Julian Watson yeah most mainstream artist have very generic beats but damn he is just so good and his voice is like the second coming of christ.
m8 on the original vid it has 7million viems....
I wish songs like this were more popular. I listen to this song every day and it's never got old. Edens voice has an emotional connection to his music and I wish more people listened to him.
I'm really depressed and this kinda helps me.....
K
Mugman Hope things have gotten better for you:)
Same
I hope you're okay. I hope everybody depressed is okay

Once you fall in love with someone from overseas, this song will mean so much more. I fell in love and had to leave her, for now. Now everyday that I'm away, I think about the day when I'll be able to feel her warm embrace again.
God, I miss her.
Why do songs with Deep meanings like this get a littlest views and songs like fucking Hit the Quan gets the trends? Just because you can dance to it doesnt mean it should blow the fuck up, this song deserves a lot more attention than any other famous songs out there right now.
Preach 😇this is so true, these songs are meaningful , unlike those dumb songs getting attention that have no meaning what so ever
+Its the Internet YES! THANK YOU!!!!! I completely agree
So true
SOME ONE FINALLY SAID IT
im with you
I love EDEN so much his songs are So beautiful honestly, they all give me so many feelings.
They're truly works of art, that being said somehow he tops them every time.
He's so inspirational. And every song has its own beautiful tone and story. He is just great cx
Im a grown man and im sittin here teary eyed, bout to lose my shit..
EDEN's voice has a way of making you feel like you understand his very soul. Don't ever change, man.
Am I the only person who loves the fact that EDEN put "Interlude" in the background near the end if this song?
wat
Is ist 4:05 when it get's loud?
+Jokes on you, I have no name gets*
Jokes on you, I have no name Yes...
Zack Webster I simply can't pick it up. :(
I just realized EDEN is quite famous at my school lol
the name of my school is eden..wonder if anyone knows of him there xD
rapture. No one in my school knows him. They all listen to cringey songs like gucchi gang even though they're in highschool ffs
My highschool is for art. I think EDEN'll be well known here.
Where THE HELL IS YOUR SCHOOL I HAVE TO GO THEREE
I might be the only one in my grade atleast ( 4th ) but in higher grades ( 5th 6th ) there might be multiple people
The feels. Don't kill me man. This channel is awesome. The lyrics are what matters to me.
+Anas Khan
+MonsterLyrics great song
+toto ffa yes
The "Stay, you're not gonna leave me..." part always makes me cry. It's just the emotion in their voice that makes it so powerful.
SO BREATHTAKING.
ITS AMAZING. I CRIED.
I KNOW RIGHT ^•^
Damn that became a meme now
The pain in his voice, the sorrowful lyrics, the powerful music in this song. It gets me every time...
+MonsterLyrics hey nik, grats for the 1M+ views on this track. I was just done binge-viewing all ur EDEN/The Eden Project videos (the whole playlist of it).
Keep up with the good work.
LNLonelyness Official I
this man. I can't believe he writes these songs. honestly I am in love he is so talented.
and he puts what he's saying into to his voice like u can here it. that probably didn't make sense but literally am I love w this man. that is all
THIS SONG IS SO POWERFUK
Agreed. The song was powerfuk
Too much powerfukness for me x.x
And great job on the lyrics!! :D keep it up
Rique Heide thank you! :D
テンポ - Tempo powerfuk af
MonsterLyrics could you please make one of "catch me if you can'' from EDEN??
I remember listening to this in Greece in the middle of night and feeling so happy and peaceful. It brings back some amazing memories in my life that I can always reflect back on in the hardest of times...
It was a bad idea to watch this after crying a bunch.
I'm crying again.
When Im feeling awful I listen to this and it doesn't cheer me up but it calms me slightly.
Eden's songs are art, he's probably one of realest artist I've ever heard, I feel like some songs were made for me to listen to it. This one is personally one of his best songs, I love Eden
I'm now completely in love with Eden, and your channel is amazing! Subbed
+Sokanon Thanks a ton for the support
me too... this video is amazing
+Sokanon ikr
This makes me cry
+Insanity Vocals so deep
+Red Wolf Ikr
What anime is that illustration from?
+Jada's Insanity Me too actually ! I was walking while listening this song and I just started to cry
Same
"Things will be better when you wake up" I don't know why but I find that phrase so reassuring
I remember how I regret hearing the songs I heard about a year ago but I'll never regret finding Eden like I literally fall in love with every song he makes with an actuall meaning behind it unlike other songs #LongliveEden
Am I the only one who cried at this song? I hope I'm not q-q
I'm surprised I'm not crying. I think I'm finally in love with someone, she's everything. Known her for years. Her girlfriend is off and on with her and I'm always there to pick up the pieces. But she loves her.. not me.. but I have to keep being her best friend because one day I want to be not only her best friend but her everything. This song means EVERYTHING. New favorite song.
+Sir AJ Respect✋
+Epticano Pellicano Thank you, you too man👊👌
+Sir AJ man it's crazy how similar our situations are! We can pull through this though, just stay focused, positive and determined and you can get her man trust me!
+Andrew Fisher *picking up some respect for this guy*
This has to be my favorite EDEN/Eden Project song ever, because of its power in the lyrics but also because the composing is just amazing
Here before one million... 😂
oh you hahah
MonsterLyrics 😜😘😂
(you're so much better than that)
i love this song so much and i now no it all of by heart i sing it all day whos else does the same thing . ?
me!
Yes.
Yes
me
Emil Hušidić xx
This gives me so much nostalgia and inspiration for some reason.
When I listen to this, I imagine angels and when Eden sings "Things will be better in America, heard the streets were gold there, maybe I can fly you out this place someday" I imagine an angel falling in love with a human.
Dear bubble-gum-wrappings, help me-
Also, this fandom is really nice :3
this song has such powerful lyrics that almost make me cry. Eden project deserves more attention that it actually has.
The song is like drugs, once you get hook up with the drug called Eden project you just want more and more after every end of the song.
007 Bond damn you're right
and u cant and will never stop oh gosh im still listening nonstop since 16-08 lolol
accurate
And he has a song called “drugs” lmao 😂
If you take the songs "Wake Up", "Gravity" and "drugs" and put them together, you will have an extremely precise summary of personality and life. Incredible.
Eargasm.. Eden done great song again..
My ears love these melodies :D
+Lucker HD Yeah
+Vrodher ❤ Hi :D
This definitely sounds like a song written for a (former) girlfriend. Some one he had to leave behind to go to America and chase his dream. She might not have told him to stay, she might even had encouraged him to leave for a better place. But he feels as though her feelings contradicted her words, and that she actually wanted him to stay. She didn't want him to leave, she becomes a ghost in his mind telling him that 'the streets of gold' are a lie, that he will fail, that he will fall. He wants to succeed and come back for her, take her to America, a better place. But she ends up symbolizing his own doubts in himself. And I love how at 2:53 some of his other songs overlap the chorus, her unspoken words, and drowns them out. Either meaning that his success drowns out her words so he can't hear her, or that his believes in his own work drowns out the doubting voice in his head. Then at the end when the music becomes louder, more powerful and hopeful, his belief in himself and that he'll make everything up to her is clearer than ever, and her words changes to just 'You're so much better than that' - encouraging him once again, rather than doubt his choices.
At least that's my interpretation of this.
Really love the layout, great lyric video to my favorite song! ♥
I love your lyric videos dude, keep it up.
@@MonsterLyricsTV very nice
"you'll feel better when you wake up, swear to god I'll make up" I miss u kalin howell😭😭 come back home😭😭😭
Always coming back to that song
damn, I listen this every single of my day. :'D
when i was 12, i was forced to move to florida to get away from my inadequate home that i was living in, and this song is one of those songs during that time that helped me get through the many thoughts that were going through my head and the guilt i felt from hurting my family members even though they were hurting me more. i love this song with all my heart.
Hey, Mr. EDEN, things are not better in America. XD
Xd
Plaxen I'm so edgy you should just call me a dodecahedron. *Puts on sunglasses.*
Compared to some places....America is a safe haven.
+Erin K not when your in newburgh like me.😢
THINGS ARE HORRIBLE HERE LMAO
I'd like to thank you +MonsterLyrics. This is the video that introduced me to the best singer/producer I've ever heard.
Thanks for getting to this one, lots of love.Cheers : )

April 2018 and this song still makes me sad, it goes deep into my heart. Makes me think of the people I miss but it also gives me the hope to see them again, one day. I get sentimental every time I listen to this title, keep doing a great job EDEN.
Unless the person you miss is AFL.

I don’t know who all will see this, but I just feel the need to share this. My best friend died last night in a car accident. I found out this morning, and I’ve never felt so lost in my life. I tried listening to music to help me get through my numb feeling, but this song came on. This song is what made me break more than any other song, any other news. I could only think of him. It’s all I could think of. He had such big dreams, and he wanted me right next to him as he fulfilled it all.
I always listen to songs and never really feel what they mean. I guess this song is now the first one where I truly feel something. The last thing I wanted was him leaving my life, everyone’s lives in the area, but he did. I couldn’t imagine him leaving. And now I have to go to school tomorrow and not see him. I wish he could stay a bit longer even. That would be enough to help cope with this. Give me any closure. But his abrupt stop was last night. My heart hurts, and I wish second chances were possible. Someday I may get to see him again. I don’t know.
But now with this song. I can imagine him saying it’s okay. That I’ll see him again. It gives me an odd comfort when I have nothing else left of him.
If you’ve read this far, thank you.
Gatlen McDivitt deserves better than this, and I guess I have to find a way to move on without him. At least I’m no longer numb.

Oh, he'll be there when you fulfill your dreams. Whenever you feel lonely, he's there. And when you get in a car? He's protecting you from something he wasn't protected from. And you miss him, as much as he misses you now. But he wants you to be happy. I know he does. Because true friends are always there.
I hope the best of luck for you. Stay strong and God bless.
This song is forever my favorite and Crazy in Love his other songs too!❤️
Till you set fire to my atmosphere
And I remember how I spent the 23rd feeling six feet under when I’m 30,000 feet in the air
Chasing that sundown
So far east I’m westbound
Feeling like the end of the world is near.
How masterful are those lyrics? EDEN has singlehandedly changed my view on music and even made me think more poetically. This man is amazing and he will forever have changed my life.
Best Subtitles maker !! I got hypnotized !!
:D
This song took me to a magical world the first time I listened to it, years later and it still has the same affect on me
I like at the end, it sounds like hes crying. But anyway this is just a masterpiece
Simply can't get over this song.
'Cause we've been driving so long
I can't remember how we got here
Or how we survived so long
I'm trying to run from our pride
At least set fire to my atmosphere
And I remember how I spent the 23rd
Feeling six feet under when I'm 30, 000 feat in the air
Chasing that sundown
So far east I'm westbound
Feeling like the edge of the world is near
But you'll feel better when you wake up
Swear to God I'll make up
Everything and more when I get back someday
This is more than just a phase, love
Shooting stars all break up
And even though it seems like half the world away
Things will be better in America
Heard the streets are gold there
Maybe I can fly you out this place someday
Chasing dreams like I'm on novocaine
Screaming through your airwaves
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say
Stay you're not gonna leave me
This place is right where you need to be
And why your words gotta mean so much to them
And they mean nothing to me
So stay you're not what you're hearing
'Cause I've been watching you changing
And who said youre one in a million anyway?
'Cause you see only what you want to
Your tunnel vision haunts you
And you can't see what's wrong with you
When you keep sleeping through the PM
Eyes wide open when you're dreaming
You're sleepwalking
Just keep talking
Maybe you can talk your way out of this deep end
No b plan in your system
Just tell me what you'r thinking
I'm scared that you might fall
But you're not
But you're not...
And you'll feel better when you wake up
Taking off your make up
Sun always seems to wash our fears away
And it's always shining somewhere
I just gotta get there
And even though it seems like half the world away
Things are better in America
Heard the streets are gold there
Maybe I can fly you out this place some day
Chasing dreams like I'm on novocaine
Screaming through your airwaves
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say
Stay you're not gonna leave me
This place is right where you need to be
And why your words gotta mean so much to them
When they mean nothing to me
So stay you're not what you're hearing
Cos I've been watching you changing
And who said you're one in a million?
You're so much better than that
You're so much better than that
You're so much better than that
Stay you're not what you're hearing
Cos I've been watching you changing
And who said youre one in a million
Anyway?
And you'll feel better when you wake up
Swear to God I'll make up
everything and more when I get back some day
Chasing dreams like I'm on novocaine
Screaming through your airwaves
Looking back I almost thought I heard you say
You are so much better than that.
LIKE THIS!
You know there’s already lyrics on the screen right
This song hits right in the feels specially the chorus
"Cause I've been watching you change.."
And OMG his voice .. Really one of the best voices I've heard .. So effortless and those voice cracksss AHHH ON POINT !!👌 idk how I didn't know about him earlier
Thank you so much. I found music that's different from all the current mainstream. Good music to sing while playing a guitar, the feeeeeeels on this song! Lol Subscribed, shared, liked, and all that good stuff (:
+Fastpandamods yaaaaaaaa
try mrsuicidesheep too. I still don't know which one I like better! :D
I can't relate to this song, nor can I relate to the whole love thing, but eden this songs freaking amazing, n I'm happy I was directed to this song so that I can keep up with ur future songs, n I'll luv them all as long as they're as mystical as this one is. may the cosmos watch over you n keep u rocking my friend!
The people that pressed the dislike button need to wake up...
No they need to stay asleep
they are in a coma and cant wake up
That Guy Silent nah they ded
juan .......
and then they should swear to god they'll make up.
This is beautifully heartbreaking
Im trying to move on; this helps and hurts at the same time. The way his voice breaks touches me so deeply! Love Eden!
My Favorite Eden Song By Far I Sang it At My School Talent Show
Post it on your channel
I can't get enough of this song! the ending has a very high vibration!!! great job EDEN...and monsterlyrics...your at 111 subs! that number is special!! keep doing what your doing
I love this song to death, but...
THE SUN RISES IN THE EAST AND SETS IN THE WEST, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
There. I had to get it out of my system.
Maybe the pic is flipped....
i feel as this song is being the opposite of what your hearing.that would explain the mistake. i mean America is not that great. Lack of government transparency, Erosion of civil liberties, Anti-secularism, Islamophobia, Too-big-to-fail banks, Lack of LGBT rights, Focus on trivial bullshit, Foreign policy, Moneyed influence in government, Lack of affordable higher education, Lack of affordable health care. and come on to be truthful only like a 1/10 people will achieve their dreams. I would mention more, but that would be a waste of time since i probably expanded your mind by now.
what are u referring to??
xD
It probably is the west and the picture was just taken from the northern angle. It's not always going to look the same in pictures because it's different angles.
I never heard of this musician. I'm for sure going to listen to more!
This song hit me right in the heart
This was my favourite song a long time ago later I began to listen to different type of songs and artists today I came back here and I started tearing up in the first 30 seconds (I am 16 years old and I do not cry that often) I don't know what got me maybe it was the nostalgia from back when I was still listening to it
The song is really emotional
come back, I’m still here :(
Whenever I feel sad, I just listen to Eden songs and let it all out. Never felt better after that
I interpret this song as someone in a shabby/unhealthy relationship, and him trying to get her to feel better, and then maybe he had to leave for war, and he "remembers" her saying "stay you're not gonna leave me" and maybe this is a song about denial or frustration. this song can mean many things, and just because the lyrics say one thing, maybe they have an entire different meaning behind them.
Interesting view! I believe that "she" has more text and that she is the person telling him not to leave while he chases his dreams and leaves her. He then feels sorry and hopes he can make up to her by bringing her with him soon.
And the award for best male vocalist: EDEN. :) Love his vocals so much
If you are listening to this in 2016 as i am, Good job, you have great taste in music this year! :D If you are feeling down now, remember, You'll feel better when you wake up~
I haven't listened to this for months and this has always my favorite song and I was singing it at school for some odd reason.
So I came here and remembered why I loved it so much.
Does any1 wheres the place in the background?
Check the description! :)
probably Europe! guessing from the fields.. looks like Ireland or the UK! but, it's in the description! (:
+Andre Correia i think its germany or norway
+Andre Correia Sutton Bank
www.google.com/search?hl=en&tbm=isch&q=sutton+bank
It looks like germany france or like that kind of central italian area... Could be Scotland or France but with a cliff face that big id assume central europe... Denmark or Holland maybe even...
Honestly, This song is like heaven, it is so amazing.
almost 4 years damn i remember watching "We are FaZe"
nostalgic
Thanks for highlighting my comment 🙏🏻 💜
I literally teared up listening to this, in the manliest possible way
+MonsterLyrics

in love with those audio waves dancing across the screen, how did you make them?
I've been trying to recreate them but all I can do so far is make something that resemble MonsterCat's audio waves
Are you trying to do it in AE?
ItzVøltec just download a sv 13 template and make it reassemble them ez
ApexNao you cant do this in sony vegas hahhaha
MonsterLyrics You use After Effects? I'm not quite sure what is better and would like to know
this is now my fav song tbh!! im so happy i subscribed to this epic channel
any more orchestral songs like this?
James Dotcom Any of EDEN's stuff is great. Personal favourites are things like Circles, Gravity & Drugs.
SAME
STILL listening to this after like two years. a masterpiece is what this is
yay new animation project...
4:15, I get chills when he begins there, his words are forceful and it sounds like he's crying out to her or whoever he's speaking to, powerful song and lyrics
I live in the third-world country and yes America seems so much better.
Light Yagami maybe i will fly you out someday
Better than most places....
Clearif I would honestly stay here in America than some other countries...
Every place has shit in it that's bad. I live in the middle of the country, in South Dakota. Allergies all the time, annoying tractors, and bad internet. I even have the luck to live away from every town. I'm isolated.
Honestly the ones who say America isnt so great are usually the Americans themselves. To me, im not American but i live here now. Its truly a beautiful place. But i think the lyrics of the song arent to be taken literally, its probably one of those "grass is greener on the other side" kind of things.
Easily my favourite EDEN song,I love them all but this one blows me away every time.
Hi future me. if you still remember this song, since how iconic it is to both of us. So, you still alive? Pretty morbid to ask, but I don’t know if you did. Sorry, I hate to start it like this. How’s the transition going? You actually trying with it, or did you give up? I hope not, because I crave it more than ever. Who are your friends? You still friends with ren, rai, and vith? I honestly doubt it. I hope you didn’t go back to you know who. We both miss them. Just get through it, ok? You’ll feel better when you wake up.
Been a month, and I can’t tell what’s changed. A lot has and hasn’t. Rai has drifted off now, and I’m stuck in between two trios, and I don’t know if im happy in either. Chris and Alex just ignore me now anyways, but they still care. It’s not fun with them. Me and ren are good friends still, which is good. Got back into genshin and minecraft, so I’m enjoying that. Not much progress in life, but school is going decent. Options are soon, and it terrifies me. I don’t know what I’ll pick, but I’ll have to soon. See you next month Hazel.
God, it’s only been 4 months? Feels like it’s been a lifetime. Friends are fine at the moment, im currently with ren, vith, alexia, chris, kayla, anu, and demi. raisah created way too much drama with our group and becky, and became friends with kaden again. I tried to get Becky out of that friendship, which eventually ended up in us dating. After a month, I decided that the relationship was too much for me, and I might be aro, which I still don’t know for the life of me, so I broke up with her. It’s been like 3-4 weeks from that, and we’re on good speaking terms now. Me, Chris, and Alexia are good friends. Im closer with alexia more, but when me and chris speak, I know that spark is still there. He’s been going through too much anyways. Me and Ren are as close as we used to be, and are practically inseparable. Me and Vith have a strong love hate relationship, but I’ll always side with them for as long as I can. They’ll never know how much I appreciate them. None of them do. Time to get onto the big event. 3ish weeks ago I decided I have had enough, and grabbed a rope Ren had given me months ago, and was going to hurt myself with it. I messaged childline until an ambulance showed up at 1am. I dealt with Solar and CAHMS for a while, and im hopefully going to get a referral for therapy, but also ASD, so my little silly autism jokes weren’t wrong after all. It’s been a longggggg 4 months, and I can’t wait for the 6 weeks off. Stay alive Hazel, you’re so much better than that.
- July 13th, Wednesday
Lots of love,
Hazel
that deep breath at the beggining gives me goosebumps
Im in a cod sniping team and a girl in the team killed herself, and we want to make a tribute montage, do you guys think this is a good song for it?
That's messed up...
And yes
Yes
No. By the way you can do a virtual funeral in the game to mourn
This is what I feel the song is for me. I'm suffering from depression pretty badly. This is not what Eden means with his song but it's what I felt was the meaning for me. Eden in the majority of the text is like my inner light talking to me. That one little light that keeps pushing me forward. So this will be the lyrics along with my interpretation. Hope you enjoy
Cause we've been driving so long(how the days go by)
I can't remember how we got here (can't remember what I did to get into depression)
Or how we survived so long (survived so much negative shit and yet standing)
I'm trying to run from our pride (Trying to run from my pride that's being selfish and trying to solve everything on my own)
'Til you set fire to my atmosphere (Until the emotions that have been bottle explode and burst out of control)
And I remember how I spent the twenty-third
Feeling six feet under (six feet under the sea. The water are thought, and I'm drowning under them)
When I'm 30, 000 feet in the air
Chasing that sundown (When I' m in this case my mind living on the future rather than the present )
So far East, I'm Westbound (How I'm bound to my past self yet living in my future self)
Feeling like the edge of this world is near (Feeling how the world is over for me)
But you'll feel better when you wake up
Swear to God I'll make up
Everything and more when I get back someday
This is more than just a phase, love
Shooting stars all break up (Talking about Depression)
And even though it seems like half the world away (Talking about how everything seems hopeless and so far away)
Things will be better in America (America for me refers to the future, and how bright it can be, hint why the street are gold there)
Heard the streets are gold there
Maybe I can fly you out this place someday
Chasing dreams like I'm on novocain (me literally chasing my dreams as I rather be in the dream world than the real world)
Screaming through your airways
Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say
Stay, you're not gonna leave me(My inner light talking to me. Say you're not gonna leave this reality, aka suicide )
This place is right where you need to be
And why your words gotta mean so much to them (Why does your inner negative thoughts gotta mean do much for me when they mean nothing to my light)
And they mean nothing to me?
So stay, you're not what you're hearing
'Cause I've been watching you changing (My inner light seeing me grow)
And who said you're one in a million
Anyway? (Who said you're alone in this feeling? Referring to how alone you can feel during depression)
'Cause you see only what you want to (How depression only highlights the bad rather than the good and me giving in)
Your tunnel vision haunts you (Tunnel vision in this case is how the depression blinds me from the people who wanna help me out and how it literally makes me have tunnel vision for the bad shit)
And you can't see what's wrong (I can't see that this thoughts are wrong, how this voices in my head are wrong)
And you keep sleeping through the PM(Sleeping to escape the feeling)
Eyes wide open when you're dreaming
You're sleepwalking, just keep talking (You're sleepwalking meaning I keep going on auto pilot on how everything is fine, keep talking meaning I should still try to talk about my problems)
And maybe you can talk your way out of this deep end (And maybe I can talk my way out of depression)
No B plan in your system (Referring to have my body and mind don't find a solution to this, no plan b which can also mean no other way to solve this except death)
Just tell me what you're thinking
I'm scared that you might fall (Fall in this case that I might end my life)
But you're not
But you're not hard (That my heart inside is not as hard as my skin outside, what I mean with this I don't show it on the surface that I'm suffering)
And you'll feel better when you wake up (Wake up to live another day)
Taking off your makeup (Makeup for me is the persona the mask I put on everything to seem okay)
Sun always seems to wash our fears away(How light always win over darkness)
And it's always shining somewhere (There's always light somewhere in the darkness)
I just gotta get there
And even though it seems like half the world away
Things are better in America (America= the future, gold= how bright and shiny its)
Heard the streets are gold there
Maybe I can fly you out this place someday
Chasing dreams like I'm on novocain
Screaming through your airways
Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say
Stay, you're not gonna leave me
This place is right where you need to be(This is the reality where you need to be)
And why your words gotta mean so much to them
When they mean nothing to me
So stay, you're not what you're hearing
'Cause I've been watching you changing
And who said you're one in a million
You're so much better than that (I'm so much better than that, that in my case is to commit suicide, knowing that it's the only option)
(Ohhhh)
You're so much better than that (Ohh)
(Ohhhh)
You're so much better than that (Ohh)
Stay, you're not what you were hearing (Ohh) (Stay, you're not what your thoughts say you are)
'Cause I've been watching you changing (Ohh)
And who said you're one in a million (Ohh)
Anyway?
And you'll feel better when you wake up
Swear to God I'll make up
Everything or more when I get back someday
Chasing dreams like I'm on novocain
Screaming through your airways
Looking back, I almost thought I heard you say
You're so much better than that
If you have reached till the end I wanna thank you for listening in.
