"So give it up, give it up for the failures! Give it up for the ones who tried! It's not enough, not enough to live up to the things that others wanted for your life." My favorite part of the song.
Not that the instrumentals just sound like they were made by god itself, the lyrics are pure genius aswell. It's one of a few bands where I sometimes just sit there and read all the lyrics. So much melancholy, but always with a positive message. From the first album till now. Keep on rocking guys!
Not that youtube is really the place to share things like this but I feel really connected to this song right now. I've always follwed what everyone else has wanted me to do go to school college and university get good grades and get a good job. I got the grades and fail at every job interview I try for, I feel as though im letting everyone down who wanted thibgs for me as if all that defines a mans worth is there job. I've never once sat back and wondered what could make me a happy person.
This song has completely changed the way I deal with other people during arguements. If everyone would read the lyrics and apply them to their life, I think this world would feel a lot less headache, and a lot more compassion for the choices of others.
I can barely express my huuuge love for this band. I love the genre, songs, the instruments, vocals, videos, everything. They are the epitome of fucking beauty.
I just saw them at the orbit room I'm grand rapids last night. What a phenomenal opening show for Coheed! Great stage presence and he's got some amazing vocal control
First time I heard this song I fell in love with it now that I have seen the music video... damn! I put the way up on my top song lists. The imagery really make this song phenomenal.
These guys were a surprise find on the Coheed and Cambria tour through San Antonio. Their performance was amazing and they definitely earned a new fan!
Awakening(Satori) has shed light into a whole new realm of distinguished alternative rock! You guys are simply one of my favorite bands to date. Brent, your lyrics inspire my writing process as well as my life. Thanks for the music.
This song has been on repeat for a while. I kept thinking about the purpose behind the video. In a way, I feel a little depressed thinking about all the mistakes I've made in life, but this song has helped me realize that you can always bounce back from your mistakes.
Who's to say what defines who we are? Our actions or our visible scars? Fuck those who judge my character without a spoken word Or put their faith in only what they've heard You dig deeper and the lines become a blur So you squint till you're blind Rest those tired eyes and vacant mind There's a raven pacing the floor Outside your cellar door That same word he spoke before To judge me nevermore It's all part of the plan We come alive when they put our heads in the sand Everybody wants to know what you've got in store for them Laughing at all your failures, all your futures Everybody wants to use your life as a catalyst Reliving all your failures, all your futures Last words are the only thing to be remembered Net worth and a list of all your crimes This world is only as big as the space that you expand your mind So give it up give it up for the failures Give it up for the ones who tried! It's not enough not enough to live up to the things that others wanted for your life There's a raven pacing the floor outside your cellar door That same ghostly bird of yore he haunts me nevermore It's all part of the plan we come alive when they put our heads in the sand It's a shame I even come out of your mouth Do you ever even stop to think about what a waste of time and energy you spend When it's all perspective in the end? If each star is a sun dying and burning one by one inside this massive cosmic black Far too expansive just to grasp and knowing we created time and this grand theory of an end well then its really just a theory maybe things have always been.
Saw them last night (27th) and holy shit are they great. I got to hang out with the band after the show for a few minutes, got autographs on both the CDs I bought at the show, and got a hug from Brent (the vocalist). They know how to put on a show!
Saw them in San Antonio with coheed, absolutely amazing. Seriously, they sound just like the recordings, live. Serious props to them. They were fantastic despite the technical difficulties.
I can not get enough of you guys! I've been looking for new bands and so far have been pretty disappointed with the stuff coming out recently, until now. You guys are insane and the drummer is so fucking good!
Yeah, I was at their show last night with Coheed. He referenced it and the crowd went nuts. Apparently it was his first tattoo and its his favorite band.
This is where you could use the term "underrated". These guys should be sharing the stage with the mainstream bands, seriously. I wouldn't like it, but they deserve to get that far.
all the band members got Keywork tattoos a couple hours before one of their shows in San Antonio, from what my brother said (he went to said show). said they entire band's been big Coheed fans for a long time now.
so glad this song is relatively long, hate it when I have a song I just want to play again and again and it's mega short so playing this song loads is grrrrrrrrrrrrrreat
this song in particular (not so much the others I've heard from them) reminds me of a slightly heavier bayside song, but that's just me. I really love the guitarwork in this track though. Such a talented band, idk why they haven't blown up yet.

Probably some of the best songwriting I have EVER heard.

These lyrics are f*cking genius. Finally people who use thought and vocabulary...
This song has completely changed the way I deal with other people during arguements. If everyone would read the lyrics and apply them to their life, I think this world would feel a lot less headache, and a lot more compassion for the choices of others.
Every single one of their songs has so much meaning
I can barely express my huuuge love for this band. I love the genre, songs, the instruments, vocals, videos, everything. They are the epitome of fucking beauty.
Also this band deserves much more credit it's better than most mainstream rock.
agree these guys should be on the radio..
this brings back so much memories of my high school days... what an amazing scene it was, full of great bands and great music
I came for the Keywork.
I stayed for the amazing music.
The drums go insanely hard
I swear Brent Walsh is a top ten lyricist, fucking phenomenal.
Crying my eyes out to this song right now.
Cus life.
I so appreciate two things about this band...1) the key work tattoo and 2) the 5/4 time signature near the end
The bass in this song is outstanding...
I've never seen something or heard a song I can relate to as much as this one in a long time. Very powerful stuff.
Lead singer has a keywork tat instantly love him
I the mighty is hella mighty!!!! one of the best up and coming bands. talent to no end!
I definitely see the coheed and cambria influence in this band not only the tattoo on his arm but the way his lyrics are expressed
I just saw them at the orbit room I'm grand rapids last night. What a phenomenal opening show for Coheed! Great stage presence and he's got some amazing vocal control
They are on tour with Coheed & Cambria and Balance andComposure. I saw them Live at the Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom and they blew me away!
The Keywork is the center of attraction in these video.
Yes! I didn't know much about I the mighty when I saw them open for coheed but I loved it.. balance was really awkward and hard to feel
First time I heard this song I fell in love with it now that I have seen the music video... damn! I put the way up on my top song lists. The imagery really make this song phenomenal.
Saw these guys on the 25th with Coheed, fell in love with them right away
These guys were a surprise find on the Coheed and Cambria tour through San Antonio. Their performance was amazing and they definitely earned a new fan!
Great all rounded band nothing can make this better!!!!
Those ending lyrics are simply incredible.
Their outros to all their songs are sick!
balance and composure is incredible... as is I The Mighty.
saw em in concert with these guys and coheed... they weren't very good like sadly
balance and composure sucked...hard. At the concert I wished they would've just walked off stage.
This band just keeps getting better.
I already loved you guys but that keywork tattoo seriously makes this 10x better. Always good to see musicians with great taste in other music too
Saw them live and met them today. Amazing, they were so sweet too.
Awakening(Satori) has shed light into a whole new realm of distinguished alternative rock! You guys are simply one of my favorite bands to date. Brent, your lyrics inspire my writing process as well as my life. Thanks for the music.
Saw these guys last night in Columbus with Coheed. I found them very enjoyable I ended up buying their album.
This song has been on repeat for a while. I kept thinking about the purpose behind the video. In a way, I feel a little depressed thinking about all the mistakes I've made in life, but this song has helped me realize that you can always bounce back from your mistakes.
I'm so happy I discovered these guys tonight!! Absolutely incredible music.. cant wait to see them at warped tour! This band deserves so much success
Each album just gets on getting better and better
This band deserves more fans.
Saw these Guys last night in Atlanta, They had a Killer set!
I loved the previous album and I swear I wasn't expecting this one to be even better.
These guys will go far, they remind me of Pierce The Veil, Saosin and Kaddisfly all at the same time.
Who's to say what defines who we are?
Our actions or our visible scars?
Fuck those who judge my character without a spoken word
Or put their faith in only what they've heard
You dig deeper and the lines become a blur
So you squint till you're blind
Rest those tired eyes and vacant mind
There's a raven pacing the floor
Outside your cellar door
That same word he spoke before
To judge me nevermore
It's all part of the plan
We come alive when they put our heads in the sand
Everybody wants to know what you've got in store for them
Laughing at all your failures, all your futures
Everybody wants to use your life as a catalyst
Reliving all your failures, all your futures
Last words are the only thing to be remembered
Net worth and a list of all your crimes
This world is only as big as the space that you expand your mind
So give it up give it up for the failures
Give it up for the ones who tried!
It's not enough not enough to live up to
the things that others wanted for your life
There's a raven pacing the floor outside your cellar door
That same ghostly bird of yore he haunts me nevermore
It's all part of the plan
we come alive when they put our heads in the sand
It's a shame I even come out of your mouth
Do you ever even stop to think about what a waste of time and energy you spend
When it's all perspective in the end?
If each star is a sun dying and burning
one by one inside this massive cosmic black
Far too expansive just to grasp
and knowing we created time and this grand theory of an end
well then its really just a theory maybe things have always been.
This song gives me chills each time; I absolutely love this band.
Saw them last night (27th) and holy shit are they great. I got to hang out with the band after the show for a few minutes, got autographs on both the CDs I bought at the show, and got a hug from Brent (the vocalist). They know how to put on a show!

I swear this is the best band I've ever heard...I hope I see u guys at warped tour
Seriously one of the best songs I've heard in a long time. Love it.
Love this song
Everything they put out is perfection. They have my favorite lyrics
I Love It: "This world is only as big as the space that you expand your mind"
I love this so much
I can not get enough of you guys! I've been looking for new bands and so far have been pretty disappointed with the stuff coming out recently, until now. You guys are insane and the drummer is so fucking good!
Me too!! I followed Pictureque and they are touring with these dudes and I decided to take a listen to them & I fell in love 😍
Yeah, I was at their show last night with Coheed. He referenced it and the crowd went nuts. Apparently it was his first tattoo and its his favorite band.

Favorite song from their set last night in GR! Glad Coheed brought these guys along. Also got to meet Brent after the show by the merch tables!
This is where you could use the term "underrated".
These guys should be sharing the stage with the mainstream bands, seriously.
I wouldn't like it, but they deserve to get that far.
THE GUY HAS A FUCKING KEYWORK TATTOO!
pretty much the only reason i gave this band a shot. Worth it!
ilovemuffins1337 They were on tour with C&C, saw them live, never heard of them before hand but I've loved them ever since.
Came here because they're on warped tour bill and had never heard before. Stayed because of keywork tattoo. I regret nothing.
all the band members got Keywork tattoos a couple hours before one of their shows in San Antonio, from what my brother said (he went to said show). said they entire band's been big Coheed fans for a long time now.

I was just introduced to this band by a dear friend of mine and I'm glad she told me about them. I can't wait to see them at Warped Tour 2014
