"Will you help me, because I'm dying to be something more than a memory". My favorite line. Gets me every time right to the heart. I'm not suicidal- quite the opposite, I'm terrified of dying, not because of what comes after, but because I don't want my work here to be cut short. I want to live a life with meaning, that really does something that matters, and I don't want it taken away from me. Just goes to show how songs like these speak to more than just one group's problems.
I just want to say, you still be suicidal and to be afraid of dying to me it all depends on you hate yourself and how numb you become because/to this world, so really doesn't say much to me when someone says ("I'm afraid of dying") but it is a good thing that your not suicidal.
+TheDragons12 that make me little hurt when the song said I'm dying but when the song said Will u help me see the light for one more day I feel warm in my heart This is why I really love this song
My dad committed suicide last year.... My brother showed me this song and I seriously fell in love with it immediately, my brother looked at me and said, "This has dad written all over it"... R.I.P Daddy
It is truly amazing to see the transformation in Lacey. I knew her well. Sat right next to her in honors english in Mississippi. She was a truly tortured soul. She wore it on her face everyday. Every day you saw her, you were just thankful last night wasn't the night she would take her life. I'm so glad she found the Lord. Then years later, I did as well. That's how I found out she was in flyleaf, thru my own journey. Overjoys my heart
@The Anon on the Internet not sure if that is a r/whooosh. They did not show they didn't understand the joke but made a joke in return. So you should instead r/whooosh yourself as it went over your head and not anyone else.
Today was one of the worst struggles with suicide I have had in a long time. As I got back in my truck to leave the store I came under what I can only describe as a demonic attack, urging me to end my life. I turned on my Pandora and this was the first song to play. I just sat there and listened. As a veteran, it can be hard; but my God is bigger. You guys are awesome. Thanks for the music.
Brother please dont do this...I dont know what happened to you, only God knows... But He wants me to tell you that He loves you, and He is in control, believe in Him, repent and give all your pain to Him, He will heal you because you are already healed in the Name of Jesus♥️ Ive been there, I almost killed myself years ago, but God saved me from the misery I was drowning in.Eternity in hell is not worth it... don't take your life, because what is on Earth is temporary, remember we have a mission, Im waiting to see you in Heaven one day! :)
@@toughcookie7501 No worries. I texted my Christian brothers and fellow veterans and my mom and asked them to all start praying over me. I had a nice little chit chat with God and got a little choked up. I know He carried me through it. Like I said, this incident was a straight up demonic attack. About a day later, my mom called me and told me about once of the ladies she goes to church with who is also a veteran and reported that the woman she knows also had an attack of this nature the same day. God will never give me more than He knows I can handle, and for everything else, I turn to and rely on God to see me through.
I'm not even a Christian, and I love bands like, We as Human, Thousand Foot Krutch, and Skillet. I think you can interpret the music however you want. Even if it is through Christ or not.
Definitely. It's up to the listener to interpret. I consider myself a Christian but I hate it when people ask me who my favorite band is and if they don't recognize it I say it's Christian and it's an immediate turn off for them. Glad there's people like you who can spread the word that artists who happen to be labeled Christian can make GOOD MUSIC. Thanks
JediJeter02 I think a lot of it is a perception that Christian rock, or Christian music in general, can be overbearing on the spiritual or religious message. I adore this song for how it balances those elements...not overburdening, so free to interpret.
tacticalplanner Yeah, because all they hear is the praise and worship. Even tobyMac, my favorite singer, has a lot of songs that mention God but then he has a bunch that are just for support or fun. I've been looking into We As Human and I'm really liking them!
Same here Jackie. I may have left Christianity behind a long time ago, but my favorite band of all time is and will always be Five Iron Frenzy. I just love Ska, and add to that total goofball antics and geek influence it just becomes the perfect mix for me. But I also love bands like Skillet, TFK, Anberlin and Kutless(more specifically the 'Hearts of the Innocent' album), I can't help but jam to a good driving rock sound as well.
Morghan May Gender has nothing to do with one’s ability to scream, lol. I know you meant it as a compliment, but the bar shouldn’t be set at “as good as guys”. Guys and gals should reach for the stars.
I’ve been a Christian my entire life. Born and raised in the church because my dad was a pastor. I’ve dealt with severe depression, anxiety and suicidal ideations for the past few years. I love Lacey Sturm and songs like this because it speaks to the darkness that we all have inside of us, but some of us just aren’t as good at controlling it. Gives me hope knowing not everyone is a straight laced Christian with a big smile on their face. Lacey Sturm, Flyleaf and bands like this are for those of us that hurt.
as someone going through a deep depression and trying to seek help before it's too late, this song hits home. I know I couldn't survive without songs like this to get me through to the next day.
Really amazing lyric video, probably the best I have ever seen. Song is pretty superb, couldn't have an awesome lyric video without awesome lyrics to back it up.
I just can't get past this song. I love it so much! "I drop all my weapons to show you that I'm not afraid! Take the bullets away!" Whether ur christian or not I believe this song will lift you up from a bad place that you are in :)
Early This year :/ Thankfully, while there was internal shit that caused them to split, the rest of the band came back and are now a new band, As We Ascend. As of this moment, I do not believe they have an album yet, but I do think they are working on one.
Drove up from NYC to see you guys at Clifton Park. So worth it. Second time for me. :) Thanks for giving a show worthy of a huge venue. "One Man Army" absolutely made my night. Will be catching you again.
I'm not even religious, but I do like this song. Many family members have killed themselves, and I've (thankfully) failed at my attempts. There's still a lot to this song I can relate to, it's a great piece
I love We As Human. Ever since I met them on my 13th birthday party at Six Flags I've listened to them and they've helped me through a lot. I don't know if they remember me, just a poor kid who didn't get his guitar signed by Skillet. Yet, I wasn't sad for long, these awesome people we met outside of a roller coaster ride, We As Human, cheered me up by signing my bracelet and talking with me. I'll never forget that moment. Thank you guys, even though you'll never see this. :)
Its a great song for when your mad and just need yo shut down. I like it because whenever I'm just mad at the world I put in my headphones and blast this song until the world seem right again
Without a doubt the most powerful part is "You're so disarming". Unless you've gone through a Christian guilt crisis, you may not realize the power in that.
The parts where Lacey sings give me goosebumps everytime. And yes I do want to be something more than a memory..... Shit someone's taken all my bullets away lol
Lacey's first scream gives me goosebumps every single time! I adore every aspect of this song.
Marjorie Bowlden Me too! Love it.
Marjorie Bowlden yeah that 1st one made me think of when they 1st started out and for it to come out of her, as little as she is, is amazing
evan butler tf
I think it ruins the song imo

Amanda L.L. I want to live for God and do his plan for him, but I can not do it myself we all need to pitch in and help, who is with me?!
Amen!
I just want to say, you still be suicidal and to be afraid of dying to me it all depends on you hate yourself and how numb you become because/to this world, so really doesn't say much to me when someone says ("I'm afraid of dying") but it is a good thing that your not suicidal.
Love this song... 🖤🦋🖤
This song is worth it for the screams alone. I love the exchange between their voices when Justin and Lacey scream "TAKE THE BULLETS AWAAAAAAY!"
TheDragons12 emo
+TheDragons12 In my opinion I love this song because I listen I feel about the man or woman who are in the darkness have someone want to take them out
+TheDragons12 that make me little hurt when the song said I'm dying but when the song said Will u help me see the light for one more day I feel warm in my heart This is why I really love this song
I love how this song doesn't sugar coat everything and pretend that everything is just okay once you are a Christian
Bryan G yep, I fought depression recently and knew that I’d overcome it because God was on my side.
Yeah definitely.... Only the strong survive. 💪💪
mhm Im a christian and Im still battling my own Mental problems and the worldly people
I 'm not Christian
This is a Christian discussion we don't if to know if you're not. No hate btw.
I just love Lacey and her screams, I'm glad she's into music again, the screams in this song are just flawless!
and they're not forced, I like that
My dad committed suicide last year.... My brother showed me this song and I seriously fell in love with it immediately, my brother looked at me and said, "This has dad written all over it"... R.I.P Daddy
I sorry about your dad ☹️
Thank you! I appreciate your condolences. I'm doing somewhat better. I know he's in a better place....
Lol, yes, indeed it is :3 Liza Carrigan
Sry to hear this. I lost my sister to suicide when I was 15.
It sucks ass... Andrew WHOSOEVER Owens
I love when Lacey screams! 😍 We as Human + Lacey = ❤ Great Song!
its so nice to hear lacey's screams again and her voice.
Lacey's screams are epic in this song!
its the epic lacey scream lol everytime she pops out a scream i get chills shes so freaking good
+Chris Summers yass
Then i think you'll love this too:
ua-cam.com/video/Fpi9_o9gVSU/v-deo.html
Her screams are epic in a lot of songs ! ^^ (such as Heavy Prey, or I'm So Sick and In the Dark)
This was my personal favorite song off the album. It has that hard rock sound that I love with the message that I love even more.
Hey Go Flames! Fellow LU student
I start in August, actually :D
Lacey's music saved my life. At one of the darkest points of my life I found Flyleaf. And to this day I still love her music.
It is truly amazing to see the transformation in Lacey. I knew her well. Sat right next to her in honors english in Mississippi. She was a truly tortured soul. She wore it on her face everyday. Every day you saw her, you were just thankful last night wasn't the night she would take her life. I'm so glad she found the Lord. Then years later, I did as well. That's how I found out she was in flyleaf, thru my own journey. Overjoys my heart
Why does it feel that 1:06 is a screaming competition and Lacey just dominated it?
yea, she killed it
I you liked that I reccomend given up by linkin park there is a part where he screams for 17 seconds
it isn' t
@The Anon on the Internet not sure if that is a r/whooosh. They did not show they didn't understand the joke but made a joke in return. So you should instead r/whooosh yourself as it went over your head and not anyone else.
I read this right as that part came and yeah, she won that!

How you doing?
@@vernonsalisbury5276 No worries. I've been good.
"I was ruined by the world but I blamed it on the Son."
My favorite line. I have done this time and time again, and realized it wasn't the Son who did it, but the Son who saved me from it all.
@@tinaprice3497 i was sure they were saying Sun
Used to be that person. ❤ I'm glad I've come back to this song with a better view.
Nope, had a cross with Jesus on it
This is my first song I've heard of them, now I'm gonna go look more into them!!!!
Same here, I love this and Bring to Life
Lacey screaming always gives me legit chills!!
She so unique and her voice is so beautiful & she actually screams with her heart not just for attention. Good song and good meaning I relate
This is the best lyric video I've ever seen
garrett Lanctot this is better =) watch?v=C1Sd3fTZey4
I agree
ViperVenom well i'd rather listen to something that isn't so... bad. why even link this in a christian song's lyric video?
garrett Lanctot Right!!! this is by far the best
Solarc12 It talks about self-discruction
The ANSWERS are all in The BIBLE 🙏🏻♥️💪🏻💯
Amen! So true!
Sometimes i feel like i'm too far gone for a remedy too, but God's never leaving us. Great song, i love Christian rock
I'm not even a Christian, and I love bands like, We as Human, Thousand Foot Krutch, and Skillet. I think you can interpret the music however you want. Even if it is through Christ or not.

I really don't get how you could interpret it in any other way besides having to do with God. But if you want to cling on that, then alright.
FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When lacey screamed I was like damnnn she girls can scream just as good as guys
Lacey is the queen of high scream
Ragan Davis amen
Check out Flyleaf - "I'm So Sick" ua-cam.com/video/01fttIlMgIg/v-deo.html
No no. definitely not as good. BETTER than the guys.
Morghan May Gender has nothing to do with one’s ability to scream, lol. I know you meant it as a compliment, but the bar shouldn’t be set at “as good as guys”. Guys and gals should reach for the stars.
This song helps me a lot.
Saw this band at Mojoes in Joliet and OMG!! HUGE fan now! Love this whole album!
I’ve been a Christian my entire life. Born and raised in the church because my dad was a pastor. I’ve dealt with severe depression, anxiety and suicidal ideations for the past few years. I love Lacey Sturm and songs like this because it speaks to the darkness that we all have inside of us, but some of us just aren’t as good at controlling it. Gives me hope knowing not everyone is a straight laced Christian with a big smile on their face. Lacey Sturm, Flyleaf and bands like this are for those of us that hurt.
@0:24 I tried to find religion, to see what I've become.. i was ruined by the world, but i blamed it on the son! I know so many people that do this.
V C I think we all use religion as an escape or coping mechanism
this song is so awesome i love lacey strum such a great voice and so talented we as human has a good cd i love every song
as someone going through a deep depression and trying to seek help before it's too late, this song hits home. I know I couldn't survive without songs like this to get me through to the next day.
I love this song. Really powerful.
OMG THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER
I thought that song say “to be something more than Ill ever be” but its “a memory”. Love this song.
Really amazing lyric video, probably the best I have ever seen. Song is pretty superb, couldn't have an awesome lyric video without awesome lyrics to back it up.
You know a song is good when you get goosebumps by just listening to it.
one of my favorites
this song is about being self destructive, the bullets are the things we hurt ourselves with, we are the gun.....
Xanzo Bazwalla interesting viewpoint
Or maybe ,just maybe...they could be ACTUAL bullets?
The song’s actually about what his sister in law went through when she was young.
I just can't get past this song. I love it so much! "I drop all my weapons to show you that I'm not afraid! Take the bullets away!" Whether ur christian or not I believe this song will lift you up from a bad place that you are in :)
2019!! Got the Lord with me, all they way to the very end!
i absolutely love it. Lacey Sturm always rocks!
I MISS THIS BAND...PLEASE COME BACK!!!!
This was going through my head all day today.
This song is awesome and it reach my every pain
Love this song. Super talented band for sure.
One. This song is awesome
Two. The video is cool
It's perfect
If you're listening to this in 2021 you're a legend
I'm so sad that this band broke up. They were freaking awesome
Yeah I was so sad when he posted about it
when?????
Early This year :/ Thankfully, while there was internal shit that caused them to split, the rest of the band came back and are now a new band, As We Ascend. As of this moment, I do not believe they have an album yet, but I do think they are working on one.
I'm not Christian but sometimes I feel like I need to find this kind of lyrics to keep walking through the valley of shadow and death.
“I am the way, the truth and the life...”
Press ON! If you ever fell lonely gods always there
Awesome song my favorite song by We As Human so far.
I love this.. Lacey Sturm is just iconic..
Saw this band live once with Skillet and it was one of the best shows ever. I hate they broke up, so much potential and talent
The song is so powerful, I love it.
Still loving this song halfway through 2020 🤘😎🎶😍
OOh! -Awesome feeling of finding an insanely good band ive not heard before! :D
Drove up from NYC to see you guys at Clifton Park. So worth it. Second time for me. :) Thanks for giving a show worthy of a huge venue. "One Man Army" absolutely made my night. Will be catching you again.
This is a good video, but I would have liked to see an actual music video!!
Nice message God bless u
Back again in 2019. God this song brings back memories
i love watching well done video art! great job!. and the lyrics, right on, God bless.
Very nicely done. I agree Garrett Lanctot. So good it could almost be an original video to the song.
I love this song
its my life theme song. I love this song. its beautiful. we as human and lacey sound amazing together
I'm not even religious, but I do like this song. Many family members have killed themselves, and I've (thankfully) failed at my attempts. There's still a lot to this song I can relate to, it's a great piece
love this song
this song gets me through so many days...
Needs more recognition
God damn her scream is sooo fucking epic

Maravilhoso essa música e com Lacey perfeito
this song is amazing. I wish a friend of mine heard this.
A great message
I love We As Human. Ever since I met them on my 13th birthday party at Six Flags I've listened to them and they've helped me through a lot. I don't know if they remember me, just a poor kid who didn't get his guitar signed by Skillet.
Yet, I wasn't sad for long, these awesome people we met outside of a roller coaster ride, We As Human, cheered me up by signing my bracelet and talking with me.
I'll never forget that moment. Thank you guys, even though you'll never see this. :)
Thats a really cool story. Good luck to ya brother :)
i dont like alot of music today but this was tight
They should make a music video for this song... just so long as Lacey Sturm is actually in it. This song has such a powerful message!
Its a great song for when your mad and just need yo shut down. I like it because whenever I'm just mad at the world I put in my headphones and blast this song until the world seem right again
Yup
Love this song
1:58 sounds just like Adam Gontier in his 3DG days.
Deplorable Me YUS IT DOES
Yeah! So glad he's in a band again :D
Philamonjaro What band is he in now?? I've missed him.
Jay demonic heart Saint Asonia. Haven't released many songs but I love the ones they have released. :)
Thank you! I'll look them up later! :)
i love this song it is soooo my life every day
2014? Geez why haven't i heard this one before?!! Lacey is awesome.
I Love it great song guys
Overcoming fear. Such a beautiful experience.
Absolutely amazing song!!!! ❤🖤😍😄
Does anyone else get tears in their eyes listening to this music
why dont people play this on the radio, its a lot better than the songs they put on everyday.
ikr
siriusxm octane plays it.
dmrmification
wait what station number?
+Cheyenne Garcia 37 I think. I could be wrong.
Yea, i cant get that station in my area XC
Best Post Grunge Ever
Wow this is my first time hearing them. They are amazing!
Great. Greetings from Greece, Europe
There are so many truths in this whole release. I'm praying for you dudes. Stay close to ground zero and keep it coming. Mighty men of Valor
Without a doubt the most powerful part is "You're so disarming". Unless you've gone through a Christian guilt crisis, you may not realize the power in that.
I love it!!
I wish these guys would get back together 😢
Still really sad that these guys broke up. Wish that everyone could accept each others forgiveness. They would've been a big band if they had stayed.
I love it ♥
Great christen music love it
Please write another album. I'm so sad... this music is great and I want another album... this is probably speaking for a lot of other people as well.
The parts where Lacey sings give me goosebumps everytime. And yes I do want to be something more than a memory..... Shit someone's taken all my bullets away lol
I love this band thank you
