i love how this song brings us all together and it shows us that we aren't alone and other people are going through the exact same thing.. this is why i love marianas trench
This song is beautiful! I just got back from a Marianas Trench concert and Josh Ramsay played this song and he was on the verge of tears if he wasn't crying. He admitted this song was about his drug addiction he used to have and it really touched my heart to see he came out ok and is doing what he loves and is brilliant at. I love you Josh Ramsay❤
This song is so beautifully written that it can apply to anyone. They can interpret it in anyway. It doesn't have to be about one thing; it can mean many different things for different people. That is one of the reasons I just love this song.
This song is so sweet.I love how Josh is so open about going to rehab.Im proud of him for giving up the drug.People could really learn from josh ramsay.I admire him.He is so sweet.Please give this a thumbs up
He is like unbelievable....I thinks it's amazing that he is facing the addiction through something that he loves...music. I don't do drugs, but I hav done other things that are harmful, and this song is like my hope that I don't have to hurt myself anymore. I love you, Josh. And thanks for giving me hope again
my friend showed me this band and ive been in love with them ever since. if ive never met my friend and if she hadnt told me about this band i wouldnt even be holding on right now
i cant describe how much i love this song, it describes how i feel, exactly how i feel. and i hear this song, and i cry, but from happiness. amazing song. absolutely incredible.
I love listening to this song everyday and night for hours. It gives me reason to believe that anything is possible. Thanks Josh Ramsay and Marianas Trench for writing this song. :)
For just being so open about his addiction and telling everyone that by keeping it a secret it makes it so much stronger over you. That's so true because I was at their concert in Toronto and he played this and skin and bones but before skin and bones he was saying if you have any kind of addiction tell someone or let it out and dont keep it a secret. When he said that I burst into tears becausee sadly i WAS bullimic but because of that little thing he said and coming from him made me realize
Glad your brother is still around to enjoy a clean and sober life. Please, tell your brother it does get easier...I have almost a year clean off heroin and other opiates....don't EVER give up on someone you love....and don't love someone you love give up on themselves....EVER.
such a beautiful song! such a melancholic sound! This is the song I thought to listen to when I started crying because I found out my mom wouldn't let me go to their concert! :( and yet... it made me feel better ^_^
Wish Josh would quit smoking though. I was lucky enough to meet him after a concert this past sunday! I have pictures with him and everything, he truly is a cool dude, they all are (I met them too). This song is wonderfully epic and I love it!
this song is so amazing . they have all been through a lot . & josh has been through the most . yeah , he was into drugs , but he started when he was back in grade 11 , he was probably pressured into it. this song PROVES how strong he is . becuase he got over this addiction. could you imagine going through something as hard as this? yeah , i didnt think so . its pretty amazing how far he has come , from all that. dont hate on him, because hes amazing & theres no doubt about it.
I LOVE this song, It's so great. It's about Josh's drug addiction when he was 18. he found the lyrics and turned it into this song right here. Marianas Trench is the awesomeness.
Not very many people like to take responsibility for their past....and this song is the greatest song ever! And I can truely say that I understand every emotion behind it....because I've been there too.
i really love this song , it has so much meaning , and there could be a lot of different meanings to it if you really think about it . im so glad that josh got over his addiction , he really is amazing . hes really been through a lot , and marianas trench have come far . this band has most definantly changed my life . thats how powerful they are . they really are incredible .
I'm aware of the meaning behind the song and what it's written for/about. However, the good thing about music is people can interpret differently and relate to it in different ways. It speaks many different languages and yet still manages to relate to everyone in some way or another. And while I miss this era of MT, I wouldn't wish for it back. Why? Because that'd mean that Josh was in this state of mind again. He's overcome that. It's something all trenchers should be proud of.
@XEverAfterDisasterX I'm glad you have some one to help you through it, even if he isn't there all the time. I'm also glad that music is what you turn to for a cure. Honestly the only time I can feel emotion is by listening to this band. I have to act happy because my family doesn't want anyone to realize there are "issues", like the only thing that matters is appearance. I'm glad that there are others like me. Thank you.
this song made me love and respect josh as a person and artist more then ever. he is my true idol becuase he had a addiction but was strong enough to believe in himself and quit. and im happy her did or otherwise there would have been a big puzzle piece missing in my life. and im sure a lot of people feel the same way as i do about josh. and i happy he made this song it describes how he felt when he was on heroin. so stop hating on him! he is like a god
for those of you who are wondering, it's about Josh's heroine addiction, when he went for treatment they told him to write a letter to his drug about how much he needed it, he wrote the letter and made it into this song, Lover Dearest.
I love this song, at first it didnt make sense but now that i realize what it was about, i so undrstand it more i saw them in concert and Josh grabbed my hand these guys are everything
My lover dearest is a boy named Kyle. He's got the most beautiful eyes and his smile makes my heart melt. Every time I see him I die a little inside knowing that he will never be mine. He's taught me everything and I've never felt so connected to anyone before in my life. He makes me not scared and pulls me out of depression. Sure, he's mean when his friends are around, but when they're not, he is sweet and sensitive. He is on my mind constantly as well.
omg! i've never done drugs or gotten addicted and i am so proud of myself, but this song makes me even happier i never got addicted. it also makes me realize how strong josh was and is that he stopped . :)
He shows that although, he is going through alot that he is strong, by showing how he truly feels. (L) Josh is a great singer,and I'm so glad, they wrote this song. It makes people understand how other people may feel. (L)
I absolutely LOVE this song! I used to be suicidal but then I started listening to this song and it helped me get over my problem! Also Josh had to make a love letter as a part of his recovery of his addiction and then he decided to make that letter into this song! That's why it doesn't really sound like it's about his addiction.
This song is really easy to relate to, regardless of the addiction. When I listen to this song, I think of my depression. I quit taking the medication and I am still doing really good and this song reminds me that it's not easy, but just listening to the beautiful construction of the song makes me better. -3
Honestly, if you weren't a Trencher, you would think this song if about a relationship but it's not. I get really emotional when I listen to this. All the emotion built up in this, in Josh's voice. It makes me feel sad that he ever got onto heroin, but that's the past. I love Marianas Trench
I have almost a year clean from heroin and an opiate addiction....this song touches my very soul...and drugs were the only thing that could reach my soul.....
I cant give this song enough credit. it kills me every time I listen to it. I've had problems with depression, self harm, drugs and relationships. evry time I listen to this song. I remember everything. its kinda beautiful
Cant we All get along? I'm a christian but i still love MT & am so glad Josh got help. Whether that came from God or people, no matter what your beliefs may be, lets all just be happy Josh is still here today to make us this beautiful music. Sound good? It does to me. XD
I don't have a touching story about myself, but this makes my brother's life make more sense. My brother started heroin at 14 and is now 16. He just celebrated his 1 month clean in rehab. He overdosed 9 times, and he would have died unless his friend called 9-1-1. It wasn't even his friend, it was some kid he met on the street. The kid wrote a letter and put it in his pocket after calling 9-1-1. It read, "I don't want you to die, so I called 9-1-1. Please get clean and don't end up like me."
I was listening to this song in class and I started to cry... it was embarrassing.... but I think it was worth it in a way. I got to listen to a REALLY good song in class, and I got to go home early....
I have struggled with many addictions for the last four years, from cocaine, extasy, speed, weed, cutting, alcohol and I am only seventeen. There is hope for all of you, I am not 2 years clean off of chemicals, one year of not cutting and a month clean off weed. Though I still drink occasionally. My 11 month old son saved my life, he is my lover dearest.
I dont think words can actually describe how much i love this song.. and this band. Marianas Trench is by faaarrr the best band there is, in my eyes anyways. They don't sing about complete bullshit, and i think this song can represent what i just said. And i won't ever judge josh for how he used to do drugs, or how he smokes. I know hes a real person, and real people go through things like this all the time. It's all the imperfections that make people perfect.
@TDIfanCXD You a brave guy and probs for finding your way. Theres people out there that feel your pain. Just remember theres always people looking out for you and you got one right here
I love this song it brings some emotional memories to it. I am one of those people that have been through alot. Not drug wise but yeahhh this song really gets me thinking.....
When everything in life is good remember one thing...it can all come crashing down any second. When you have that moment stop and live for a few secdond. And enjoy it. Good luck (:
this song was writtin from a letter his doctor told him to write in rehab as an excersise to discribe how he feels about his heroin,, it turned into an amazing song
He was addicted to heroin and he had bulimia ..he wanted to keep smoking and shit but he was dieing so he tried going to rehab to quite and adventually got better (which is awsome) .....he wrote this as a letter to himself and then turned it into a song and I really hope i helped you understand better..and sorry if didn't , i don't explain things really good :)
@TDIfanCXD Congradulations! I'm sure many people are proud of you. I'm glad you could find something that helps you through it.(: Good luck in everything.
i love how this song brings us all together and it shows us that we aren't alone and other people are going through the exact same thing.. this is why i love marianas trench

freaking beautiful..
I love how there is always a song that can relate to you and it sends you places..
This song is so sweet.I love how Josh is so open about going to rehab.Im proud of him for giving up the drug.People could really learn from josh ramsay.I admire him.He is so sweet.Please give this a thumbs up

Cried so many times listening to this song. I think this song helped me come to a decision on a relationship I'm currently in. Thank you
my friend showed me this band and ive been in love with them ever since. if ive never met my friend and if she hadnt told me about this band i wouldnt even be holding on right now
i cant describe how much i love this song, it describes how i feel, exactly how i feel. and i hear this song, and i cry, but from happiness.
amazing song. absolutely incredible.
This is probably my favorite song by Marianas Trench, whenever I think about what its about I almost start to cry. Its such an amazing song
I seriously get so emotional because of just how much I can relate to this wonderful song
Thank you josh for writing this wonderful song
I love listening to this song everyday and night for hours. It gives me reason to believe that anything is possible. Thanks Josh Ramsay and Marianas Trench for writing this song. :)
1:04 - 1:33 Best part of the song. I just feel like the emotion is ramped up here
For just being so open about his addiction and telling everyone that by keeping it a secret it makes it so much stronger over you. That's so true because I was at their concert in Toronto and he played this and skin and bones but before skin and bones he was saying if you have any kind of addiction tell someone or let it out and dont keep it a secret. When he said that I burst into tears becausee sadly i WAS bullimic but because of that little thing he said and coming from him made me realize
omg i actually sat here and read the lyrics and it litterally moved me tears. this song is so beutifull
When I was trying to get off the drugs I listened to this a lot :)
This song helped me... thank you marianas trench
this is the first time i've heard this song, and i crying so much. this is probably one of the most amazing songs i've ever heard.
Josh, Your Voice Just Gives The Song More Meaning. Stay Strong Guys And Never Let Go
Glad your brother is still around to enjoy a clean and sober life. Please, tell your brother it does get easier...I have almost a year clean off heroin and other opiates....don't EVER give up on someone you love....and don't love someone you love give up on themselves....EVER.

My favorite line is "the quitter in me is bigger than the both of us" I just really like how much meaning is in that one line!!
No matter how many times I listen to this song, it always sends chills throughout my body.
i really love this song , it has so much meaning , and there could be a lot of different meanings to it if you really think about it . im so glad that josh got over his addiction , he really is amazing . hes really been through a lot , and marianas trench have come far . this band has most definantly changed my life . thats how powerful they are . they really are incredible .

I loved this song before I knew what it was about, but I didn't really understand it. Now I do, and love it even more. What an amazing song.
I haven't listened to this song once without crying :( such a beautiful song
Marianas Trench is like a miracle to music. This is real music.
I love this song, at first it didnt make sense but now that i realize what it was about, i so undrstand it more
i saw them in concert and Josh grabbed my hand
these guys are everything
this song is so sad. i love you josh!...we are all here for ya. this was great live!
this is not only a beautiful song, but an amazing song :')
My lover dearest is a boy named Kyle. He's got the most beautiful eyes and his smile makes my heart melt. Every time I see him I die a little inside knowing that he will never be mine. He's taught me everything and I've never felt so connected to anyone before in my life. He makes me not scared and pulls me out of depression. Sure, he's mean when his friends are around, but when they're not, he is sweet and sensitive. He is on my mind constantly as well.
Mariana's trench has to be like MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE ;u; I love them sooo much
I love this song, I always picture my self playing the piano and singing this song to the world. I really love you Josh -3
omg! i've never done drugs or gotten addicted and i am so proud of myself, but this song makes me even happier i never got addicted. it also makes me realize how strong josh was and is that he stopped . :)

There is hope for all of you, I am not 2 years clean off of chemicals, one year of not cutting and a month clean off weed. Though I still drink occasionally.
My 11 month old son saved my life, he is my lover dearest.
