I dropped out of high school 17 years ago out of necessity to have a roof over my head. I've battled addictions and homelessness. I'm now a college Junior with a 4.0; I listen to this song each morning to keep me motivated to better myself and my situation in life.
This song has kept me alive through the hardest times of my life. 20 some days clean again and I listen to this song every day to remind me of what I've overcome and to inspire me for the obstacles yet to come.
@@Azrantha yes. I'm 90 days clean on the 15th and I'm working a really good job and doing all the things. Life is good. I'm relatively happy most of the time and that's a big deal.
Everyone says their favorite band is has the best vocalist, or writes the best songs, subjectively praising their tastes. Rise Against are not my favorite band; they don't nail every song - and whilst the other members are all solid, I think Tim McIlrath might genuinely be the best lyricist (and acoustic composer) in modern rock music. Consistently dealing with mental health, desperation, advocacy, trauma, anger, resilience, love and joy, he can always craft meaning out of the lexicon, with flow, structure and resolution. - Well done Tim
Rise against always make me imagine I'm lying on the hood of my car watching the stars with a friend or lover talking those weird deep talks that only happen at 4am when all the walls we live behind are down and we don't hide the emotions trying to burst out of us and you can just sit there and recognise the other person is just as lost as you but it's going to be ok because you're not alone
Barry Cassidy you should think about those thoughts all the time. If these guys are actually about what they sing about, Tim would want you too. Everything around us is crazier than you think.
Reality is far more interesting than any book or movie. We know nothing yet. Give humanity a million years. Maybe we will understand our place in this universe.
I've heard the original version 100 times and thought "Yeah, it's an alright song." But hearing it played acoustically like this literally bought tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful rendition. ❤
listening to rise against sometimes brings me back to those days where things were so much simpler than now. nostalgia is one hell of a drug and these guys always give me my fix.
I was so psyched to see this song got a ghost note symphonies version. Rise against is my favourite band and this song is in the top 5 of my favourite rise against songs. Had to put the volume all the way up and sing along.
You got this buddy. The road to recovery is riddled with relapse and it's only a relapse cause you dont wanna stay there! I'm 23 and I've been trying to get clean for the Last 8 years. You got this my dude
@@edithdufoe853 what? I meant it's always a good time for a rise against marathon. IE business as usual. When did this become such a thing, everybody thinks everything is to offend someone
@@mikematheson6206 I'm sorry but I didn't mean to offend you I noticed I had left the comment over a week ago and I just received the reply. BTW I am listening to Rise Against as I am replying to your message!!!
@@edithdufoe853 ok no worries. but still, again nobody is offended lolol. Like I said, messed up how many people are offended these days it's almost expected people have some sort of victim complex. I'd like to get away from that line of thinking
I was diagnosed with Autism in 3rd grade. For practically all of my life people have been telling me, in no uncertain terms, just how hopeless I am. I've been told that I have no future, that I'll require help for the rest of my life. It hurts so much more because people seem to rarely listen to what I have to say. They try to tell me exactly what I am, and they try to fix me. They tried to claim that I have no empathy or emotions, yet music like this makes me cry, and fills me with a strange sense of warmth and bittersweet... something. People treat me like I'm violent sometimes, but I'm really not. Honestly, I abhor violence with all my heart. I want my life to be peaceful and joyful, and I want the same for those near me as well. For everyone, really. People have treated me as pathetic for so much of my life that I believe it firmly to this day. I believe that I'm hopeless and that I'll never amount to anything in my life. I've even attempted suicide a few times. I'm now turning 23 in just under 2 weeks, and I've been living on my own for almost 2 years. I still have a hard time believing it, but I think I'm beginning to question everything that I've been told all my life. I'm even learning how to solder electronics in hopes of someday opening a vintage game store & offer a service to do repair work on old consoles These are few of the most encouraging words I've heard in my entire life. My girlfriend has been nothing but supportive, as well. She knows exactly how to drag me out of my misery, and I love her so much. It might be crazy, but I'm even trying to right a series of novels. However, it's only in the world-building stages. Music like this inspires me so much, for both my life, and my beloved story. Not sure if Rise Against will see this, but on the off chance that they do; thank you so much. Your words cut like a scalpel and help to remove some of my anguish.
Nunca permitas que nadie te diga quién sos,que nadie te haga sentir lo que no sos,que nadie te diga que no puedes lograr tus sueños,que nadie te etiquete ../sigue adelante ,tu brújula está dentro de ti , no afuera 💪
Embrace who you are, not what people tell you who you are. There's no reason for anyone to not enjoy life. Live your life as you want it. You are truly the only one who makes it, not others.
This song has already been my favorite and you made it even better with that version. Beautiful! Thank you so much for those songs. Greetings from Germany :)
Grew up listening to these guys. They have no idea how much they have helped me in my life - good, bad & reflect! Never seizes to impress me & their fans. Rise against makes life bearable. Awesome guys!
I just love it... and it makes me emotional every time I listen to it. There's something special in their lyrics, something that hits the soul. Rise Against had a big role in changing my life when in 2015 I finally had the courage to leave a boring European life stuck in an office to start travelling by motorbike heading east without any fixed plan and time limit... a decision that I'll never regret. Those guys with their songs really helped me thinking of what life is and why we should reconsider it when we feel in a cage. One more time with this song they make me feel that the walls that all surround us are only in our minds...
Nice song about fighting ur way out of a hole of depression. And not staying to wait for a miracle. And I am guessing the bus transit is from where people run away from home in movies and what not by using a bus.
Definitely way better then the original. And that's why rise against is and will always be great because they will always do better then they did the last go around
I was just about to go to sleep, like my friend kept saying should cause I have to wake up early tomorrow I said.... Let me just check if Rise Against has released it yet... I see 'RiseAgainst has uploaded a video' who needs sleep....
I passed on Rise Against when I was younger because I didn't like the style of the vocals. As an adult, I now realize what a stupid child I was. This song hits so close to home. Amazing stuff.

Put into words exactly how I feel

💞
Fuck yeah... You're totally right... It's exact this feeling
Rise Against with another quality song.
In other news, the sky is blue
When Rise Against played at Staten Island as part of their Mourning in Amerikka Tour the sky was beautiful that day! God bless this band!
I love how they pulled a bunch of their older stuff sowed it down and added symphony instruments
These Ghost Note versions are beautiful
I've heard the original version 100 times and thought "Yeah, it's an alright song." But hearing it played acoustically like this literally bought tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful rendition. ❤
tim has one of the most comforting voices on this earth.

This song has so much meaning to me i cried first time listening to this ive ben in a deep place lately an this gives me hope for a brighter time
"When the weights we carry breaks us, we're tempted to stay down
But every road to recovery starts at the breakdown"
I feel this.
Don't worry, you're not alone on this. 🙏

you know your music helps others get through life (complete love).
This song has hands down the most beautiful chorus Rise Against have ever written. Period.
The Tempo That The Guitar Follows Was Enough To Bring Beauty Out...It Sounds So Majestic
Revisiting old playlists from high-school. Its wild how much can change in 3 years.
The guitars sound so crisp and the violins are used so well. This might be my favorite song on Ghost Note Symphonies so far
I was so psyched to see this song got a ghost note symphonies version. Rise against is my favourite band and this song is in the top 5 of my favourite rise against songs. Had to put the volume all the way up and sing along.
This song hits different when you just relapsed after 20 months clean and you're finally having that rock bottom spiritual awakening
I pray and hope you're doing better now. If no one else does, you can know I believe in you.
You got this buddy. The road to recovery is riddled with relapse and it's only a relapse cause you dont wanna stay there! I'm 23 and I've been trying to get clean for the Last 8 years. You got this my dude

Thanks Rise Against. For being an awesome band.
You are the miracle. Handle yourself with care and you may recognize a lot more miracles arround you.❤

Miracle is by far my favourite song on Wolves and I love it just as much acoustic. Thank you
Amaizing song thank you for sharing your incredible talent with us this is just one of many perfect songs you have made
I love this version of this song. For me it's spiritually motivating.
Why is every song they make so fucking perfect
Every road to recovery, begins at the breakdown...

I think I like this more than the original. And the original is my favorite on Wolves.
Mara S. I 100% agree. It was my favorite on Wolves and this is only an improvement
Definitely way better then the original. And that's why rise against is and will always be great because they will always do better then they did the last go around
The only thing that keeps it from being a perfect song is the bridge, which is kinda awkward in acoustic. The rest is splendid!
At this moment in TIME this album is my favourite of All TIME.

Awesome Version. Rise Against has the Best Chorus ever.
Holy fuck, This song hits you right in the feels. Another classic slower song to sit perfectly with People live here, and Swing life away
Along with voices off camera, and like the angel, and everchanging (The remakes) they're all beautiful songs.
I love Rise Against. They need more songs like this. Set aside the screaming and all for a while
You can add another great masterpiece to your collection!!!!
