    "When you take the sick away, tell me who I'm supposed to be."
    Doesn't get much realer for those of us who've had depression all our lives and don't even know ourselves without it.
    It's supposed to help knowing that we're not alone, but somehow it just makes me sadder knowing that other people are living in this hell. Yeah, it means I'm not crazy, but it also means that other people hurt as much as I do, and that's not okay either.
    Thank god for artists who manage to touch our hearts and mend our souls, little bits at a time.

      Honestly, this is a very relatable song for those struggling with Chronic Physical Illnesses. I have both a physical Disease known as POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) and Depression/Anxiety and like... this song is a very relatable song for both types of ailments.

      So true... though there's also the fact that some have metaphorical masks they wear, day in and day out. they bury themselves deep... often enough too deep. when these masks are taken off, and I mean a complete, total, unmasking of the person that has hidden themselves for so long, when that happens, they feel nothing. there's nothing inside for them to feel they don't know who they are or where they belong. they have become an empty shell of who the should have been... they don't care anymore... it's actually something more than depression, greater, stronger, more potent... and it carries into the realm of sentience at its peak. I'm one of these people, and it makes me both stronger and weaker, or rather I'm given the illusion of strength, while the reality is that I'm truly weaker than I really am. It truly eats at my very being, and I'll never forget what started the masks and this void deep inside. People definitely hurt, some more than others, but some people need direction and more help than others.

    lyrics
    Tell me who I’m supposed to be now
    Make me better
    I can’t stay halfway dead forever
    Can you fix this, am I too far gone?
    I’ve never done this before
    Don’t know if I’m ready but I wanna move on
    And I’ve never said that before
    I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
    This is the way that my sadness made me
    Better come quick, yeah better come save me
    I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
    This is the way that my sadness made me
    Better come quick, yeah better come save me
    Tell me, tell me
    Tell me who I’m supposed to be now
    Make me better
    I can’t stay halfway dead forever
    I fear now
    There’s not much left of me
    When you take the sick away
    Who am I supposed to be?
    Who am I supposed to be?
    Recovery time, a condition like mine
    What are we talking here?
    Getting so close, I can taste the hope
    But I still feel the fear
    I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
    This is the way that my sadness made me
    Better come quick, yeah better come save me
    I don’t wanna be stuck, I don’t wanna be crazy
    This is the way that my sadness made me
    Better come quick, yeah better come save me
    Tell me who I’m supposed to be now
    Make me better
    I can’t stay halfway dead forever
    I fear now
    There’s not much left of me
    When you take the sick away
    Who am I supposed to be?
    Who am I supposed to be?
    For years, this is all I’ve known, this has had my heart, this has been my home
    And now I’m scared to lose myself, scared of letting go
    For years, this is all I’ve known, this has had my heart, this has been my home
    And now I’m scared to lose myself, scared of letting go
    Tell me who I’m supposed to be now
    Make me better
    I can’t stay halfway dead forever
    I fear now
    There’s not much left of me
    When you take the sick away
    Who am I supposed to be?
    Tell me who I’m supposed to be
    Tell me who I’m supposed to be

    Fucking hell, how have a not found this band sooner? The sheer power in this song is almost too much for me to handle. Isn't it funny how sometimes life throws something to us that we've so desperately needed. Such as a song that makes you realize the battle isn't over yet, fear is a natural occurrence, and this can all pass.

    As someone who's struggling to come out of a major depression/severe PTSD regression, this song really captures how I've been feeling so much as I try to figure out who I really am without the damaged parts. I hope you guys know how much your music affects people - you've always been one of my favorite bands, not only because your sound is amazing, but also because you somehow encapsulate how bad things can get inside your own head in a lot of your songs. It's really unique, and I hope you never change.

    I have borderline personality disorder, complex post traumatic stress disorder, autism spectrum disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, schizoaffective disorder (bipolar type), and major depressive disorder (recurrent). If I were to wake up tomorrow and be healed, I don't think I can even imagine who I'd be. Like, even when I daydream about being somebody else, I don't know how to make that imaginary person well. If the illness was something like missing my legs, It would be easier to imagine a me with legs. Hell they have prosthetics these days, so I wouldn't have to just imagine it. But with mental illnesses like this, I don't even know how to imagine a normal person.

    It's not that the condition is comfortable. It's not.
    It's that it's *familiar*. To many folks, they can count on it, just as soon as things start looking up.
    "I finally worked out that everyday problem AND I got some unexpected good news!"
    "That's great!"
    " No, it isn't, because that means now comes the part where self-doubt and guilt punch me in the gut because I'm too much of a loser/failure/trainwreck for Good Things to happen too without consequence."

    I always come back to this song. I relate to it, especially the “tell me who I’m supposed be?! I can’t stay half way dead forever!” It makes my heart squeeze but gives me a comfortable somber feeling.

    Last night, my kitten Shilo passed away in my arms. Today would have been her one month birthday. I feel like I lost my own human child. I have never been so depressed in my life. This song is helping me to cope. Thank you, Rel. Love you girl.

    Man, Ariel is one of the best at writing about the transitions of moving from being messed up towards healing. You can tell that she's been through a lot in her life and has fought hard to overcome her problems.

    I really like how this band has evolved. They kept their rapid fire lyric segments, and ellaborated on melodies. Release after release, they keep on making hits.

    • @richieherlinger4545
      @richieherlinger4545 5 років тому

      Those lyrics remain because there has always really only been one writer for the most part, and that's Ariel. Specially on everything from the Now You Know EP until now, she has written all lyrics. But now she is finally letting Shawn have some input on the lyrics too lol.

    this song helped pull me out of a bad mental state as a teenager. I was diagnosed with schizophrenia at 14 (young, I know) and I was sick for a long time. When i started to get better, I became depressed because I realized the severity of my condition. the lyrics of this song felt like they were pulled straight from my mental state at the time, "i can't stay halfway dead forever, " "when you take the sick away, who am I supposed to be?" I credit this song with getting me to realize that I could be more than my trauma.

    honestly i wouldnt wish this on anyone but she sings everything so perfectly. ive dealt with sever depression along with few other mental disorders majority of my life. i honestly dont wven know who i am if i didnt have any of these illnesses. most days i feel like im going crazy even though i know im not. ive given up hope that ill ever be "normal". im grateful for artists like icon for hire who can literally nail it all in their music. its nice to know im not alone but i feel bad for everyone whose in this same boat. i wouldnt wish this on anyone.

    I'm thankful for this band. They have great songs, and have even enabled me to strengthen my relationship with Christ. It's hard to imagine that we're all single souls, and yet we're never alone. This band is an excellent reminder of that, and I pray that God blesses more people each and every day so they can accept Him before their time is up. Thank you Icon for Hire, and thank you Jesus! :D
