masterpiece i so relate to this song clean and alive finally after basically being dead caught in a 14 year meth addiction thank you god for opening my eyes
this is the kinda music that should be played on the radio, we have no rock stations here except for classic rock its unbelievable how people have no idea this kind of music exists
Just a beautiful song, speaks to anyone who has been down to the lowest places, whether through addiction or other life-altering mistakes. It doesn't matter what your religion, this is just a positive message.
I remember getting their self titled album when it first came out. It always resonated with me even after I left the church. Now nearly 20 years later as I circle back and find myself and my place in the spiritual realm, a deeper meaning has been revealed to me. 🖤💪🤘
This is one of, objectivly speaking, DH signature songs, like Not Ready to Die or Death. But on my personal taste, this is THE DH signature song. Just sum up all that makes DH themselves, the taste that remains on the band even after the line-up changes.
I'm glad that are other people that aren't Christians that enjoy this band. These guys are awesome, and I feel lucky to have seen them when they toured for this album. Good times.
This song reminds me of a time when I was in denial about my addiction, when I knew all along I was destroying my soul, but I wanted to justify my caving in to temptation. I'm still yet to be free of the effects of it ... I keep falling for the same stupid traps, time and again, and falling back into my old ways. I'm so tired. I don't want to be an addict anymore ... I just want to be happy.
I think they're referring to the fact that Demon Hunter is technically a Christain Band.... because everyone has to mention that at some point in every one of their songs that they have faith in God. Apparently it's mandatory and will never EVER get old.
I hate how every time i open a demon hunter song there is some annoying christian/athiest war going on. I may not be christian, but i think i can let a christian comment go. Just enjoy the song.
Reading the comments , I don't see how this can be a religious battle. To me this means being a slave to something, whether it's to a person, job, your own mine etc and in the end you are free from it but always haunted by the memories.
Wow. Don't meet many people like you on youtube. I respect people's opinion, a lot. Usually people are like "Not my opinion it's my fact" or something.
Totally! Anything from Amon Amarth-Nothing like Viking Metal to get a swift kick! In This Moment had a good mix of melody with heavy riff back ups. And ...Really anything Demon Hunter. Static X has they're good ones too.
@deathknight908 They've got a couple of songs like this. Deteriorate, The Tide Began to Rise, Heartstrings Come Undone, Thorns, Carry Me Down, and Driving Nails.
I could tell this was from the first album cuz Ryan Clark sounds a little younger here. :) somehow that makes me feel happy. I'm pro'lly just tired, haha.
@noR3M0RSE I just learned how to play it on guitar the other day. Very easy. Of course, most of Demon Hunter's songs are easy. Sometimes the simplest stuff is the most awesome.
@pointandlaugh131 they should make a christian heavy metal radio channel available worldwide, and also put the soft songs from those bands (like this one :D) in there. that'd be awesome.
I love the sound and melodic/lyrical complexity, but what is Ryan actually saying with this one? I know he's quoting Romans 3:13, but I don't exactly get the message or meaning with this one, anyone wanna help me out here? btw DH rules!

The scary thing is that I have found myself thinking "This isn't me" or "This isn't how I really am"
I'm a drug addict in recovery.. This chorus means so much to me
God bless you brother, hope you make it out 😇🙏
"...I've been dead for so long."
I wish demon hunter still did ballads like this, haunting and beautiful. I still like their ballads, but there’s nothing like this
This is one of, objectivly speaking, DH signature songs, like Not Ready to Die or Death.
But on my personal taste, this is THE DH signature song. Just sum up all that makes DH themselves, the taste that remains on the band even after the line-up changes.
I was trying to search for a completely different song, and instead stumble upon this. And it's awesome.
such a beautiful song. depressing but joyful. bittersweet. love it!! ROCK ON, DH!! XD
If you accidentally hit dislike, you can change it to a like.
I'm glad that are other people that aren't Christians that enjoy this band. These guys are awesome, and I feel lucky to have seen them when they toured for this album. Good times.
A good song about sin, about fallen virtue. And the reality, not only of sin, but of our Savior.
Amen.
I am always reminded on this song when I have a cold.
i think its the mix of both that makes them one of the most versatile and awesome bands out there.
this was demon hunter's first song. also, the lead singer wrote the guitar years before demon hunter started.
My band favorite
Best song by Demon Hunter.
I like demon hunter, but Im not a Christian but Im just glad there is still some bands worth listening to out there ^^
eu amo essa música ❤
Yeah my big bro micheal introduced me to this up lifting music. Phenomenal music keep rocking and don't. Forget your rock. Hint hint
One of my favorites. Melody lives here!
this brings back so many memories... so long ago..
The man looks at his hands, they shiver for he has lost his love, not for a lover, but for life...
still listening to it in 2012...
i knew this song 6-7 years ago

Hey, you okay?
I just got to see them live in Dallas. It was amazing!
Awesome song!

What a great fucking band!
Love you guys! Thanks for writing good songs.
it would feel nice to feel alive again
I havent listened to them since the triptyche but i always thought this was their best album
love the ending
I hate how every time i open a demon hunter song there is some annoying christian/athiest war going on. I may not be christian, but i think i can let a christian comment go. Just enjoy the song.
Carter Hanks I'm a Christian and have no problem.
Carter Hanks its a Christian band. Expect it dude
Exactly my first thought, u said it right :)
Believe what u want but I like being guilt free for just having regular fun. I work my ass off but I still find time for fun.
Same, people come here to listen to demon hunter not to start dumbass arguments of religion.
Reading the comments , I don't see how this can be a religious battle. To me this means being a slave to something, whether it's to a person, job, your own mine etc and in the end you are free from it but always haunted by the memories.
Miss Bonkers for sure
@pointandlaugh131 this is too good for radio
Wow. Don't meet many people like you on youtube. I respect people's opinion, a lot. Usually people are like "Not my opinion it's my fact" or something.
Me either. I hope to get it soon!
i was dead but now im alive in Jesus Christ
Amen❤
This song is so freaking awesome there are 0 dislikes!!!

Best music from them!
Never heard this one before, good song :)
lol this was totally my favorite workout CD ever.
@potman328 my goodness, thank you.
Yes, there is an acoustic version.
I could tell this was from the first album cuz Ryan Clark sounds a little younger here. :) somehow that makes me feel happy. I'm pro'lly just tired, haha.
@noR3M0RSE I just learned how to play it on guitar the other day. Very easy. Of course, most of Demon Hunter's songs are easy. Sometimes the simplest stuff is the most awesome.
This is exactly how i feel, like i dont need any outer knowledge to know this is it
@noR3M0RSE I can't believe I forgot those two. I love "I Play Dead".
@xohaleylandxo You may have heard one of the two acoustic versions. They're both by DH too, and are both awesome.
this isnt me i use 2 say,all the love was so gone,it feels good 2 be alive,ive been dead 4 so long
forever
Definitely doesn’t get the recognition they deserve
@pointandlaugh131 they should make a christian heavy metal radio channel available worldwide, and also put the soft songs from those bands (like this one :D) in there. that'd be awesome.
fuck i wish they play this stuff on the radio insted they gotta play all that rap bullshit it makes me wana cry just a little bit
@xohaleylandxo There is an acoustic version, if that's what you mean.
Love this song. It will always remind me of code geass of all things xD
I listen to it in the later hours... x}
Very fun, you should try it. xDDD
dude if this band was on the radio i would have hecka speeding tickets no joke they get my heart racing in a non sexual way...
where did my radio go all i hear is a cricket plz fix it i think its brocken all these crickets keep singing
Storm The Gates Of Hell is a GREAT album!! Your opinion, though :)
0 dislikes, great!
@avengedbatfoREVer ya know! thats what im sayin! this is a freaking awesome song!
And I'm just in it for the music... I feel like the odd one out here...
Божественно
Title of the song reminds of a girl i use to know
Guitar reminds me of Kevin Sherwood's "Undone"
This predates Sherwood's work
demon hunter and kevin sherwood are both amazing
0 dislikes. Lets keep it this way...
@noR3M0RSE I may make a cover video of I Play Dead. If I ever find my camera, that is. lol.
it feels good to be alive, cuz i been dead for so long.
@TokoyonokuniAndMakai how big was your bill that month
that's a mako reactor (according to the original final fantasy vii.)
they probably mean Storm the Gates of Hell.
@xohaleylandxo Im asuming you heard the acustic one
@deathknight908
How about My Heartstrings Come Undone?
Your alright kid! btw you got decent taste in music. HASTE THE DAY!
how could there be a dislike
have you seen TVU as well?
@piersonsmusic prob the acoustic one :P
@xohaleylandxo u probally heard the acustic version
@lovekibainuzuka thats because the dislike button doesn't exist for such an awesome song :P
Damn it Justin Bieber you've got to be the only dislike, Dont you?
+Connor Hale Justin Bieber and Harry Styles.
I love the sound and melodic/lyrical complexity, but what is Ryan actually saying with this one? I know he's quoting Romans 3:13, but I don't exactly get the message or meaning with this one, anyone wanna help me out here? btw DH rules!
@jecspm04
that's what democide means ;)
yay i can't wait. Although i like their older sound like this. Was not very impressed with Storm the Gates
Seems you're the only one :D
@skilletissocool
I bet u wish u could change your username..?
*that THERE are other people...
The 20 dislikes are from edgelords who hate everything
Yeah, I guess I just don't listen to 897PowerFM during the later hours when they tend to play harder stuff.
radioU and TVU. check them out
Just a little bit
@pointandlaugh131 you read one of my comments before and stole it for this song! hahaha
Rap really does not go so well on the radio. Metal is the ruling music these days.
The title of the song is as bad as the song is good! xD
Just kidding, don't kill me please! x) Though the song is excellent!
***** nuuuuuuuuuuuuuh!
+Ajax94100 Romans 3:13. The title is actually scripture:)
+Adriaan De Lange omg. thank you for sharin' that o; I would have never known !
Try tuning to a different station
An atheist was here..and he enjoyed himself
