This song has helped me stay clean so many times. Blue october will forever be in my heart. Many of their songs has truly helped me. 11 years off street drugs. Grateful for eveything...
Nancy Roy Addiction is a terrible affliction and brings nothing but pain and ruin to yourself and those most dear. I lost everything of value in my life because of it. Possessions can be replaced in time but to mend the severed bonds with those we hold most dear is the most difficult part of the process. My struggle continues but I take heart in the success of others who were able to break free from the shackles that once bound them. Thank you for sharing and I wish you joy and success in all that you do. Stay strong!
My Husband & I just got married Tuesday June 18th and this was the song had our first dance to. Ironically we danced on a balcony while everyone watched from below. It was beautiful :) I wish Blue October would see this & know how beautiful their music is.
Oh the memories this song holds! The first date my hubby and I had we heard this song. Now here we are FIFTEEN years later. With 3 beautiful babies and more love for one another than I ever thought possible!
I find it interesting that everyone finds so much happiness in this song. While there is lots of emotion in it, a powerful song, I hear loss of a loved one, standing on the balcony deep in thought and the wind blows as if a kiss and he is off in memories and fantasizes about being with her again someday. Holding onto her memory so very tight.
He actually stated in a book this song was written about what he believes a perfect relationship would be like. I love your interpretation though. The very reason I love music is because it can mean something different to everyone.
He told us at a concert before he sang this that he wrote it for his youngest daughter. Though there aren't really any specifics so it can be interpreted many different ways.
I think it could also be about a break up. that last night you spend together, aware that this is the end. you love one another but it's never gonna work out. theres no other way, you can't believe it, this person is like no one you've ever known. you don't wanna let go...painfully beautiful. I find it funny too when people play this at weddings. I'm like you're missing the point, guys! 💙
It is a shame that their most "popular" songs are not even their BEST songs. I have a new found appreciation for this group and cannot wait to see them live this fall!!
The first time I heard this song was when I was coming down from a 2 week meth binge. I just remembered balling like a baby. I've been clean ever since.
I heard someone play this tonight in a live stream for the first time and had to look up the original. The comments here are so wonderful. It made the song played tonight extra special! Thank you for sharing it and thank you for sharing the comments. :)
Justin is one of the best song writers of our generation, and really any generation. So talented and yet not as well known as he should be. Always amazing stuff from him stuff that maybe not everyone understands
I was just introduced to this song a few months ago, b y a friend. I have been entranced by it since then. I usually listen to hard rock, heavy metal, speed metal, and or punk rock, but this song is amazing.
This is my husband and my wedding song. He has tattooed on his side the verse "so we talked about mom's and dad's about family pasts just getting to know where we came from" ...and I have the next part "our hearts were on display for all to see, I can't believe this is happening to me"
that is awesome! my mom has his autograph on her arm and got it tattooed and ''picking up pieces'' and then my step dad and my mom a getting a tattoo of a verse from the song debris! also she has 'kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that i had made' across her feet (hard to discribe unless seen) and right now we are in car driving 10 hours to go meet justin and the band!! Congrats about the wedding! Have a great day!
Foiled was one of my favourite Albums as a kid. At one point I noticed it was gone. Years later I found it in my Uncle's truck, I wanted to be mad but I wasn't, I got to share this Album with someone else and he had clearly carried it with him for years. 10+ years later, my Uncle died today. This was the only music I could come back to. Rip Aaron, I'll love you and miss you forever buddy.
This was a song between my ex and I. And I mean someone who both hung the moon and extinguished the sun. I come back to this song every so often to remind myself of those memories, the good ones atleast, and also to remember the bad ones to see where I’ve come from mentally and as a person. It’s been years and it’s still my song to go to when I need a good healthy cry.
This song reminds me of a girl I dated Years ago the song perfectly describes how I felt for her although we didn’t make it as a couple we still keep in touch I couldn’t imagine my life without her in it it’s been over 25 years we have grown old together I guess there’s people you can’t and shouldn’t forget sometimes
Yeah, they are one of the few bands that really bring it live. They look every audience member in the eye that they can. You can tell they really appreciate that we're there at all!
My interpretation of this song... To me, this is certainly a story of someone getting to know a lady and realizing that he is falling deeply in love with her. His arms are open wide to her love and he knew it from the start. They don't want to fall asleep for fear they would miss this moment together. He wants to tell her that he is "So yours for the taking" and he's tearing up trying to figure out how to say it. Then she kisses him as if to say, "you don't have to say it. I know how you feel and I feel the same way". They are basically both flying away together in love. But it's just beginning, and he knows that there will be times when they are apart. He feels that eventually they will be together but until then, "I'll keep you in my dreams" I felt this way when I met my wife. And like many others, we danced to this song at our wedding.
Justin explained the origins of this song. He was in Texas and was talking with a girl (his future wife) in Nebraska and they decided to meet up. He took a train from Texas to Kansas City and she took a bus from Nebraska to Kansas City and they meet at the Westin Crown Center in room 1852 and he walked in the room and smelled some marijuana and the Smiths and a few other songs were playing and they fell in love.
I needed this reminder today....what it really feels like and why I have done without the frivolous and be open for the real!!! No rush love.... I am working on loving life enough that when we come together neither of us will fall on old social conditioning forms of love...but real, deep soul shifting and mind shattering passion and forever afters!
I love the beauty of art, it touches everyone in a different way. That's the beauty of it to me:) With Justin's songs you can definitely interpret them in so many ways. Love them all!
I named my son after Justin. His first me is Justin too. This band was big factor in me and his father connecting and tho relationship went sour. I am blessed with my son and this song will always remind me of him..
I am amazed at the complexity and yet the simpleness of this song. It is happy and melancholic, and real and dream like. This song is WAY under appreciated. and this from a guy who grew up listening to Slayer, and Merciful Fate, and Sepeltura, and the like.
I heard this song for the first time in like a year and a half and at a certain point, I simply couldn't breathe. Choked me up so hard. It HURT! Then tears just poured out of my eyes
Such a beautiful song. I had heard it but never really listened to it until now. Great lyrics. Could mean so many different things to different people... that to me is what music is about, love it.
My fiance has been gone, locked up and than now sent to some home. I don't know when I'll be able to see him again :(. This has been my song to him since the beginning. And I was singing to it just remembering the past and in the middle of the first chorus, I couldn't hold it back any longer and I started balling. It's nice to let it out, and Blue October is amazing.
this song makes me cry every time I here it. I was listening to this song when I asked out my first love. It brings back bad memories but I cant help but love it.
Im not crying, youre crying😢 this song just brings me to my knees,literally i hear it stop and drop down and just bawl my eyes out. ❤thank you Justin i need this song mire than oxygen at this moment October 1st 2023 will be the new discovery of the song i will always held dear and close to my heart forever Blue October Love 💙💙💙
I was told last week to listen to this song by my ex. he said it reminded him of us and how we would lie like that and talk of our future together...then 27 years of life happened.....and whats the saddest part is we still love each other but arent together.....maybe one day....i never stop having faith!!
Everyone has their first love. It's the first time you let yourself be vulnerable enough to share yourself with another person, and, usually, it's the first time you feel the kind of pain only heartbreak can bring. But for those weeks or months, it's the most beautiful thing. You never love as easily or as completely as you do the first time. We should treasure that memory, painful though it might be for some of us, lest in our cynicism we forget how to love that way.
this song was shown to me by my mom and if i feel sad at all i cry when singing along. this song is powerful; to me, in a good way. i need this song from time to time
My son was born with complications and he was on the third floor in stockton ca and san fran came picked him up and he was on the 15 floor in san fran but to him it would be 18 floors remarkable song and a amazing band!
UA-cam randomly played this song while I was doing something else on another window , and I loved it so I looked to see who was singing it, and I will be damned if it wasn't another fanfreakingtastic one by Blue October...Do they have any crappy songs at all? Srsly, I just started listening to them and dear lord they are so good!
This song really meant a lot to me years ago when I was in a long distance relationship with the love of my life.. and we'd get those few moments every year or so when we could be together again.. until I finally took the step and moved to be with him.. We were in an LDR for 2 years before I moved.. and we've been together for 8 years now and still going strong; we even have a son now. ❤ this song made me think about him when we were apart.. and how much I loved him and couldn't wait to be in his arms again. Even now, being with him still, having a kid with him, seeing him everyday.. I still don't want to ever let him go. I still dream of him when I close my eyes and I still miss him when he's gone for even the shortest amount of time.
~MEANING OF THIS SONG~ ”I close my eyes and I smile Knowing that everything is alright To the core So close that door Is this happening?" --he basically falls in love with this girl.. and has never felt that way before...and can't believe it.. My breath is on your hair I'm unaware That you opened the blinds and let the city in God, you held my hand And we stand Just taking in everything. --He's never been so happy "open the blinds and let the city in" just basically means that she let and wanted everyone to know that they were in love. And I knew it from the start So my arms are open wide Your head is on my stomach And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep Here we are On this 18th floor balcony. We're both flying away. --AND he knew from the start that she was the one for him..he let her in..and being on this 18th floor balcony basically means..when you're in love nothing else seems to matter.. So they use the line.. 18th floor balcony to resemble that it's just them.. and they're in love.. and they're both flying away.. So we talked about mom's and dad's About family pasts Just getting to know where we came from Our hearts were on display For all to see I can't believe this is happening to me -- they got to know each other let each other in. and they let everyone else know they were in love. I can't believe this is happening to me...means..she stopped loving him. And I raised my hand as if to show you that I was yours That I was so yours for the taking I'm so yours for the taking That's when I felt the wind pick up I grabbed the rail while choking up These words to say and then you kissed me... --so he tried and tried to prove to her that he wanted her and he didnt' want her to go..the wind picking up.. His world crashing and he grabbed the rail because he felt like he was falling..he was so high on love.. That when she stopped loving him..he couldn't belive it. and she kissed him goodbye... And I'll try to sleep To keep you in my dreams 'til I can bring you home with me I'll try to sleep And when I do I'll keep you in my... dreams --he'll never forget her.. and basically the last verse of the song re interprets it to they both go they're separate ways.💔💔💔 I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU GLORIA DELGADO.
Walking away was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. We fell apart, you betrayed my trust in you and shattered me and our memories. It’s still the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
"And now I find I'm yelling 'make it go away!' Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be!" -Blue October's 'Hate Me' these lyrics make me cry almost every time. Needless to say, I feel every ounce of your pain. Hope things look up for you, friend. God bless.
This was a beautiful song. I remember hearing this song back then when this was newer. I was just depressed and hopeless but still content and in control in my messed up way. Yeah eeeeeesh thanks, work, life, family etc. I love this song though it's really good.
The guy I've dreamt about for a long time said this song reminds me of him. And I can only thank the heavens for this chance at a life I've always wanted. Cheesy and corny for sure, but I can't help but smile.
This song has a completely different meaning for me. It reminds me of a lot of people. But It mostly makes me think of my mom. Her and I are really close. And im not sure why it reminds me of her but it does. Especially the 2nd verse. My mom and I share a strong connection through music.
There's a track after this song, that's after close to two minutes of static and noise, that everyone says is a "hidden track". If you haven't heard it... you should wait for it and listen to it. One of the deepest/heart-felt songs on this cd.
+Bailey Stuckey actually it has no name. if you listen to it on a digital CD player, the exact time it starts is a number tattooed on Justin. swore to never tell what the significance is. can only say its beautiful and haunting just like he is. amazing man!
This is the 1st time I've heard this song.. I heard about it on 20/20 it was the couples fav song. So i looked it up. I cant believe i havent heard it. I think its a beautiful song. I listened to it around 10 times in a row listening to every word and I think it's about someone losing the one they love to suicide.. Thats what it seems like to me. But, no matter what it is about love death marrage what ever its a beautiful song. At least we all can agree on that..
Does anyone notice that the dislike buttun has no words. so when you scroll down the like button is more noticable. This is the best song in the world.
I'll be covering this song in sign lagage soon per request! so beautiful I'm excited! if you're interested I have done other blue covers in sign language and they are on my channel!
This song has helped me stay clean so many times. Blue october will forever be in my heart. Many of their songs has truly helped me. 11 years off street drugs. Grateful for eveything...

2020 got me
His definition of surrender gets me every time:
I raise my hands as if to show you I was yours, that i was so yours for the taking...
Yes!! Omg!! That’s what makes it so special to me.
hmm

Now that is poetry.

its also about suicide

this song is so deep. i love Blue October. his voice is like a voice of an angel that can feel pain and love.
It is a shame that their most "popular" songs are not even their BEST songs. I have a new found appreciation for this group and cannot wait to see them live this fall!!
There’s something divine about this song that can’t be explained in words. It’s so captivating...
The first time I heard this song was when I was coming down from a 2 week meth binge. I just remembered balling like a baby. I've been clean ever since.
Chris Davila you got this!! congrats!
Chris Davila congrats man. I know how addiction is and it is the worst thing to go through. vary proud. keep it up and let God guide you.
Dude now that is AWESOME. The power of music can be incredible and life changing. Well done man!
Chris Davila congrats!
+aric congrats
The Blue October I love; the violin makes it so beautiful. I miss it in their newer stuff
This song is so beautiful and even after all these years it breaks my heart every time
addicted or obsessed?
2020 and this song still moves me so much
I heard someone play this tonight in a live stream for the first time and had to look up the original. The comments here are so wonderful. It made the song played tonight extra special! Thank you for sharing it and thank you for sharing the comments. :)
Justin is one of the best song writers of our generation, and really any generation. So talented and yet not as well known as he should be. Always amazing stuff from him stuff that maybe not everyone understands
Oh my god, I'm not exaggerating but this song has been stuck in my head for 8 years and thanks to the soundhound app I've found it!!!
I learned how to sing this song more than 8 years ago I'm currently 12. I love this song
I was just introduced to this song a few months ago, b y a friend.
I have been entranced by it since then. I usually listen to hard rock, heavy metal, speed metal, and or punk rock, but this song is amazing.
This is my husband and my wedding song. He has tattooed on his side the verse "so we talked about mom's and dad's about family pasts just getting to know where we came from" ...and I have the next part "our hearts were on display for all to see, I can't believe this is happening to me"
that is awesome! my mom has his autograph on her arm and got it tattooed and ''picking up pieces'' and then my step dad and my mom a getting a tattoo of a verse from the song debris! also she has 'kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that i had made' across her feet (hard to discribe unless seen) and right now we are in car driving 10 hours to go meet justin and the band!! Congrats about the wedding! Have a great day!
Jessica Koppold thats so awesome..
Mine and my husbands too.
It's not our song anymore unfortunately. I fucked it up!!!! I'm sorry Jessica!!!!!
This was going to be the song my ex fiancé and I were going to have our first dance to
Was also the first song my husband and I danced to at our wedding.. October 10th, 2009. I still tear up listening to it.
blue October just gives you the relaxing sensation to where u are just so emotional

Me too... 17 plus years... this song still reminds me......
This song reminds me of a girl I dated Years ago the song perfectly describes how I felt for her although we didn’t make it as a couple we still keep in touch I couldn’t imagine my life without her in it it’s been over 25 years we have grown old together I guess there’s people you can’t and shouldn’t forget sometimes
Read my comment i Interpreted the meaning of this song of what I think it meant to me . I cry every time I hear this cause I miss her
Yeah, they are one of the few bands that really bring it live. They look every audience member in the eye that they can. You can tell they really appreciate that we're there at all!
Still in love with this song
Who would ever think one mans lyrics and vioce could save so many.blessed and thankyou
Beautiful song! How can someone not love Blue October!!
I’ve never heard this song before and now I can’t stop crying! So beautiful haha
My interpretation of this song...

I felt this way when I met my wife. And like many others, we danced to this song at our wedding.

This song is beautiful and makes me happy. Even though I'm alone and sad inside
I am amazed at the complexity and yet the simpleness of this song.
It is happy and melancholic, and real and dream like.
This song is WAY under appreciated. and this from a guy who grew up listening to Slayer, and Merciful Fate, and Sepeltura, and the like.
I love love love this song. I've been searching for it for the longest
I heard this song for the first time in like a year and a half and at a certain point, I simply couldn't breathe. Choked me up so hard. It HURT! Then tears just poured out of my eyes
My first time hearing this #2019!
This song is so special to me and someone I will always love dearly.
This song has always spoken to me 🧡
Such a beautiful song. I had heard it but never really listened to it until now. Great lyrics. Could mean so many different things to different people... that to me is what music is about, love it.

This is my boyfriends favourite song, I had to look it up on UA-cam, it is so beautiful and emotional, I will listen to this many, many times
Everyone has their first love. It's the first time you let yourself be vulnerable enough to share yourself with another person, and, usually, it's the first time you feel the kind of pain only heartbreak can bring. But for those weeks or months, it's the most beautiful thing. You never love as easily or as completely as you do the first time. We should treasure that memory, painful though it might be for some of us, lest in our cynicism we forget how to love that way.
this song was shown to me by my mom and if i feel sad at all i cry when singing along. this song is powerful; to me, in a good way. i need this song from time to time
My son was born with complications and he was on the third floor in stockton ca and san fran came picked him up and he was on the 15 floor in san fran but to him it would be 18 floors remarkable song and a amazing band!
P.s. my son turned 10 yesterday
UA-cam randomly played this song while I was doing something else on another window , and I loved it so I looked to see who was singing it, and I will be damned if it wasn't another fanfreakingtastic one by Blue October...Do they have any crappy songs at all? Srsly, I just started listening to them and dear lord they are so good!
This song really meant a lot to me years ago when I was in a long distance relationship with the love of my life.. and we'd get those few moments every year or so when we could be together again.. until I finally took the step and moved to be with him.. We were in an LDR for 2 years before I moved.. and we've been together for 8 years now and still going strong; we even have a son now. ❤ this song made me think about him when we were apart.. and how much I loved him and couldn't wait to be in his arms again. Even now, being with him still, having a kid with him, seeing him everyday.. I still don't want to ever let him go. I still dream of him when I close my eyes and I still miss him when he's gone for even the shortest amount of time.
~MEANING OF THIS SONG~
”I close my eyes and I smile
Knowing that everything is alright
To the core
So close that door
Is this happening?"
--he basically falls in love with this girl.. and has never felt that way before...and can't believe it..
My breath is on your hair
I'm unaware
That you opened the blinds and let the city in
God, you held my hand
And we stand
Just taking in everything.
--He's never been so happy "open the blinds and let the city in" just basically means that she let and wanted everyone to know that they were in love.
And I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony.
We're both flying away.
--AND he knew from the start that she was the one for him..he let her in..and being on this 18th floor balcony basically means..when you're in love nothing else seems to matter.. So they use the line.. 18th floor balcony to resemble that it's just them.. and they're in love.. and they're both flying away..
So we talked about mom's and dad's
About family pasts
Just getting to know where we came from
Our hearts were on display
For all to see
I can't believe this is happening to me
-- they got to know each other let each other in. and they let everyone else know they were in love. I can't believe this is happening to me...means..she stopped loving him.
And I raised my hand as if to show you that I was yours
That I was so yours for the taking
I'm so yours for the taking
That's when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail while choking up
These words to say and then you kissed me...
--so he tried and tried to prove to her that he wanted her and he didnt' want her to go..the wind picking up.. His world crashing and he grabbed the rail because he felt like he was falling..he was so high on love.. That when she stopped loving him..he couldn't belive it. and she kissed him goodbye...
And I'll try to sleep
To keep you in my dreams
'til I can bring you home with me
I'll try to sleep
And when I do I'll keep you in my... dreams
--he'll never forget her..
and basically the last verse of the song re interprets it to they both go they're separate ways.💔💔💔 I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU GLORIA DELGADO.
🗣Mi amor!!!! 😩😭
Walking away was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. We fell apart, you betrayed my trust in you and shattered me and our memories. It’s still the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
🥺
"And now I find I'm yelling 'make it go away!' Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be!" -Blue October's 'Hate Me'
these lyrics make me cry almost every time. Needless to say, I feel every ounce of your pain. Hope things look up for you, friend. God bless.
Aww! This song randomly popped in my head. I still know every word!
Oh Mel, this is for you... what a beautiful song
This was a beautiful song. I remember hearing this song back then when this was newer. I was just depressed and hopeless but still content and in control in my messed up way. Yeah eeeeeesh thanks, work, life, family etc. I love this song though it's really good.
I love him so much, he doesn't even know how much I truly love him. ♥
When it rains ❤️
I just went to a concert of theirs. Let's just say I found a new favorite band that day!
My favorite Blue song.
The guy I've dreamt about for a long time said this song reminds me of him. And I can only thank the heavens for this chance at a life I've always wanted. Cheesy and corny for sure, but I can't help but smile.
This song has a completely different meaning for me. It reminds me of a lot of people. But It mostly makes me think of my mom. Her and I are really close. And im not sure why it reminds me of her but it does. Especially the 2nd verse. My mom and I share a strong connection through music.
This is my favorite song and band I saw there concerts like 2 times
This is a beautiful song
It is, I'm going to the concert at San Diego right now and I'm meeting them too!
Stephanie Aviles ya it was awesome!!!
*Wipes away tear* That's beautiful...
Beautiful song..love it.
definitely my favorite band
my mom loves this song shes going to use it for her wedding❤❤
Justin, is an incredible lyricist...
I can speak for so many others.. You never do forget your first love, no matter how much time passes..
This song makes more bawl my eyes out. I love you, A.
There's a track after this song, that's after close to two minutes of static and noise, that everyone says is a "hidden track". If you haven't heard it... you should wait for it and listen to it. One of the deepest/heart-felt songs on this cd.
It's "its just me"
+Bailey Stuckey actually it has no name. if you listen to it on a digital CD player, the exact time it starts is a number tattooed on Justin. swore to never tell what the significance is. can only say its beautiful and haunting just like he is. amazing man!
Woe I never knew that! That's beautiful.
THAT's the song I'm looking for! Too bad I didn't keep my CDs.
This is the 1st time I've heard this song.. I heard about it on 20/20 it was the couples fav song. So i looked it up. I cant believe i havent heard it. I think its a beautiful song. I listened to it around 10 times in a row listening to every word and I think it's about someone losing the one they love to suicide.. Thats what it seems like to me.
But, no matter what it is about love death marrage what ever its a beautiful song. At least we all can agree on that..
This song always reminds me of the time...greatest moment of my life, so far...
all of blue octobers songs are beast!!!!
Does anyone notice that the dislike buttun has no words. so when you scroll down the like button is more noticable. This is the best song in the world.
