This song unlike the others isn't about the downsides of depression or how to see who has depression, it's about how to see the brightside of life and that anyone can cross that wall and see the sunrise

[@DylanCoteActor]

“The midnight sky turns to dawn” never fails to make me weep.

[@Eatmywalnutz]

Me too man

[@Copiasbabydaddy]

This song hurts even more after finishing the book.

[@Eatmywalnutz]

I wanna read the book so bad

Laying in bed listening to this song with tears rolling down my cheek. I am at peace, finally. Looking back on all those years totally isolated and misunderstood, and even in the midst of that eternal darkness- there were moments of hope sprinkled about. You dont get better in a moment. You can only get a little closer.

This is just a beautiful song, the added songs from the movie are so good I thought they were in the musical too, it shocked me they were just for this

[@dragonviperthesandwing6379]

I was scared that the new ones they added would be crap but they were probably one of my favourite parts of the songs (other than all the emotions shown in Words Fail and Requiem)

[@cityscapes3600]

Literally, this song is the one that broke me while I was watching the movie!! Thank you so much♡

[@josemanuelmon]

Not only that, but, the emotional shock of seeing that it is Connor Murphy playing it, swiftly showing everyone that there was a side of him that neither of his closest people had ever seen. God… what an ending!!!

[@maverickmiller1921]

This song genuinely makes me tear up.

[@Drillur]

Fantastic performance by the singer.

[@loserrat6600]

So what exactly was the Connor character’s mental defect?

[@niamh955]

Depression and he was suicidal hence why he took his life

[@amandacapper9370]

He has depression

[@suzannevasquez2137]

Drug addict

I know it wouldn’t make sense and it completely ruins this song and the scene but I would have burst out laughing if the video Evan got emailed of Connor singing this song was just Jared making another email and sending Evan an attachment with “sO mAnY pEoPlE eNd uP sUcKiNg dICk FoR mEtH”
