Elliott wrote this song based on one of our friends back in Ohio who died due to drug problems. one of the most satisfying things he could have done for him. love you mike🤘
Chreston Allen You're definitely right about that! When Blessthefall plays live, they always put on a good show. Their stage presence while taking breaks between songs aren't always entertaining enough for the audience, but they never disappointed me when playing their music.
[Intro: Jared Warth] We’re reading psalms to the dead Lighting candles to make amends For a voice never to speak again Six feet under for what never should’ve been [Verse 1: Jared Warth] Stop living like you walk on water Looking down on all those left to drown Stop living like you walk on water Looking down on all those left to drown [Pre-Chorus: Beau Bokan] And you know I couldn't find the words before Only if I had another day left here I’d tell you, I'd tell you If I had another day to try to take away your pain Now you're so far out of reach It’s a lesson you can't teach [Chorus: Beau Bokan] You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach [Verse 2: Jared Wrath] I’ve seen the scars you’ve tried to hide Searching for answers when you look to the sky Say I’m liar, say I’m a fake I’m far from a saint So I’ll live with my mistakes [Bridge: Jared Warth] If I'm a liar, if I'm a fake I’ll take all these sins And you can burn me at the stake I’ll take all these sins And you can burn me at the stake [Pre-Chorus: Beau Bokan] And you know I couldn't find the words before Only if I had another day left here I’d tell you, I'd tell you If I had another day to try to take away your pain Now you're so far out of reach It’s a lesson you can't teach [Chorus: Beau Bokan] You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach [Outro: Elliott Gruenberg] Son of God, are you listening? Son of God, can you hear my cry? We put our faith into you How could you just watch them die? Son of God, are you listening? Son of God, can you hear my cry? We put our faith into you How could you just watch us die?
+Jared Thompson Umm what? Jesus was the son of God... Maybe you're thinking of king of the jews? The term Son of God is not offensive. I mean the trinity is even called the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Elliott is screaming Son of God because he's calling for Jesus' help, not because he's trying to show hatred towards God.
Beau is the nicest guy ever! Met him at the pre-warp tour party. Geeked out and blurted, "Love you and your wife." He was so modest about it. #TeamRocket
Please come back. We all need blessthefall right now. Jared truly owned this song. Beau I still have mad love for ya. Blessthefall as a whole is my number one band for music. 💜🥺🤘🏻🤟🏻
Invite Blessthefall to a pool party to see if they can walk on water, only to end up drowning because Bring Me The Horizon brought their demons to the party.
A couple of months ago, I listened to this song and this band for the first time. Now they're one of my favorite bands! Since then, I have been developing a love for metalcore and metal in general c:
For some reason this song makes me cry, I guess it just hits a secret part of my soul I loved blessthefall ever since I was 9 years old and I'm 16 now and there one of my favorite bands and always will be
I love this video! The visual imagery is so stunning! I like how it's done in black and white instead of color. I feel like that makes it so much more intriguing.
Witness is still their best album for me, this new one isn' as good as i thought it would be, however i can't deny this is one of their best songs i've heard from them.
Wasn't a huge fan of Hollow Bodies but this new album is fantastic. Beau definitely stepped it up and Jared continues to kill it and the guitar/drums are on point. Amazing.
Don't get me wrong.. I love Blessthefall, and they're one of my favorite metalcore bands. Got to pop my crowd surfing cherry seeing them live on the recent Warped Tour. I'm not sure if I'm slowly growing out of metalcore, but their older albums such as 'Witness' and 'Awakening' seemed so much more original and pack more of a punch. Songs like 'Bottomfeeder' and 'What's Left Of Me', etc. Maybe because they have more history and nostalgic value for me while I'm slowly transcending into progressive metal (more technical stuff). Does anyone else feel the same as me or does the quality and originality of the music seem to still be present for you guys? Their latest album just doesn't move me as much. Maybe it'll grow on me though. I've only given it a couple listens so far.
+Hansol I don't know about anyone else but I feel you completely. I've also transitioned into progressive metal and now I usually just find myself searching up their old stuff along with the other bands in the metalcore scene.
+Alfonso Navarro Wow, I'm glad someone feels the same way. What are some progressive metal bands you've been enjoying? As for me, it's Periphery, Veil Of Maya, ERRA, and some metalcore such as Northlane and August Burns red. There's so much talent to be found in other metal sub genres. All these old Metalcore bands such as Of Mice & Men, Memphis May Fire, and more that I used to love to death have just fallen off the sides for me. I also just listen to their older stuff for nostalgic reasons, and that's about it. It's just not as creative and technical for my standards. I've been spoiled with too many great new discoveries.
+Hansol Personally I think it's a little more generic now. Obviously the quality of the recording is much better now, but I think their best song-writing was on "his last walk." They're still good, but I feel that they'll never top that album.
Omg this music video is amazing!!! The graphics are beautiful and the song is fantastic. This is definitely one of my favorite songs off of "To Those Left Behind." Congrats on the new album!!!
I will have to say...that back in 2009 I think it was when i first heard you guys....You weren't all that much...But with the last album it seems you guys have gotten better. I like this.
Honestly has to be one their best tracks 🙌🏻
I've been listening to this song regularly for years!
Elliott wrote this song based on one of our friends back in Ohio who died due to drug problems. one of the most satisfying things he could have done for him. love you mike🤘
Hunter Hild I miss Mike so much
My first taste of blessthefall .......Christ have I been missing out or have I been missing out .
same here
+corporal meme They're one of the best Metalcore bands out there.
You aren't missing out, I promise you that!
Chreston Allen You're definitely right about that! When Blessthefall plays live, they always put on a good show. Their stage presence while taking breaks between songs aren't always entertaining enough for the audience, but they never disappointed me when playing their music.
+Shoji Tabuchi same here homie they raw af!
[Intro: Jared Warth]
We’re reading psalms to the dead
Lighting candles to make amends
For a voice never to speak again
Six feet under for what never should’ve been
[Verse 1: Jared Warth]
Stop living like you walk on water
Looking down on all those left to drown
Stop living like you walk on water
Looking down on all those left to drown
[Pre-Chorus: Beau Bokan]
And you know I couldn't find the words before
Only if I had another day left here
I’d tell you, I'd tell you
If I had another day to try to take away your pain
Now you're so far out of reach
It’s a lesson you can't teach
[Chorus: Beau Bokan]
You love and you lose
I wish that you know
That it's just a lesson you can't teach
You love and you lose
I wish that you know
That it's just a lesson you can't teach
[Verse 2: Jared Wrath]
I’ve seen the scars you’ve tried to hide
Searching for answers when you look to the sky
Say I’m liar, say I’m a fake
I’m far from a saint
So I’ll live with my mistakes
[Bridge: Jared Warth]
If I'm a liar, if I'm a fake
I’ll take all these sins
And you can burn me at the stake
I’ll take all these sins
And you can burn me at the stake
[Pre-Chorus: Beau Bokan]
And you know I couldn't find the words before
Only if I had another day left here
I’d tell you, I'd tell you
If I had another day to try to take away your pain
Now you're so far out of reach
It’s a lesson you can't teach
[Chorus: Beau Bokan]
You love and you lose
I wish that you know
That it's just a lesson you can't teach
You love and you lose
I wish that you know
That it's just a lesson you can't teach
[Outro: Elliott Gruenberg]
Son of God, are you listening?
Son of God, can you hear my cry?
We put our faith into you
How could you just watch them die?
Son of God, are you listening?
Son of God, can you hear my cry?
We put our faith into you
How could you just watch us die?
ظبنبنيورويتسهسنياللللايغعص؟
+nVr
the last line shows jewish hatred for jesus, the 'son of God'
+nVr You're a god lol thank you for this
+nVr I got like 70% of those lyrics wrong in my head.
+Jared Thompson Umm what? Jesus was the son of God... Maybe you're thinking of king of the jews? The term Son of God is not offensive. I mean the trinity is even called the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Elliott is screaming Son of God because he's calling for Jesus' help, not because he's trying to show hatred towards God.
2:05
Volume was at max, building collapsed. I'm homeless. Still worth it.
Absolutely incredible
+Lily O'Bryan u syko
+Lily O'Bryan Yes one of my all time favorites
+Jared Thompson Dude seriously you're a loser xD
+Ian Schoepski yo don't be like that, he's an obvious troll. just let him be
+Nelson Atkinson
haha - you had to comment twice and he got all hot and bothered? Losers!
"You love and you lose, i wish that you knew that it's just a lesson you can't teach" that part hits me every time
First time seeing Beau's forehead.
Follow him on Instagram cx he's posted a couple pictures of him with his hair in a bun or combed back..... He's a different person ._.
+Ethereal1441 xD
same
+taylor goulart What about 40 days?
+taylor goulart Made my day hahahahah
Elliots part has so much emotion it gets me
Elliot was like "yo jared, why dont you relax at the end bruh, i got this" lol
+Jonathan I HAVE TO DRAW THAT.
I absolutely love when bands have screaming and singing at the same time, playing over each other. It creates such a cool sound
Beau is the nicest guy ever! Met him at the pre-warp tour party. Geeked out and blurted, "Love you and your wife." He was so modest about it. #TeamRocket
Please come back. We all need blessthefall right now. Jared truly owned this song. Beau I still have mad love for ya. Blessthefall as a whole is my number one band for music. 💜🥺🤘🏻🤟🏻
Son of god are you listening...? Still get chills every time.. Elliott nailed that outro
Blessthefall, another music video?? WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!
These guys have not made a bad album yet. All of their albums flow so nicely.
The amount of passion in Elliot's voice at the end is just insane.
love how the boys aren't changing their style like some of the other metalcore bands out there right now, Jared slays his vocals too
Incredible, I love how BTF has such a powerful message and can deliver it in such a wonderful video.
Invite Blessthefall to a pool party to see if they can walk on water, only to end up drowning because Bring Me The Horizon brought their demons to the party.
Best UA-cam comment EVER!
+Ghost Killer Entertainment Oh no, be careful what you wish for :/
Holy shit XD
+Ghost Killer Entertainment this is gold
...not to mention they got drowning lessons from MCR 😝
jared still sporting his emo fringe
Fuck yes
This might be blessthefall's best album!!!
The Hell happened to you guys please come back!!!
Blessthefall is love, Blessthefall is life
A couple of months ago, I listened to this song and this band for the first time. Now they're one of my favorite bands! Since then, I have been developing a love for metalcore and metal in general c:
Not gonna lie, this is my favorite BTF album yet. Love all the songs, especially Walk On Water.
Love the new Blessthefall album and this song is one of my favourites!
Voltando aqui pra ouvir essa maravilha
2:04 One of my favorite breakdowns of all time.
This is truly a gem. It is so fun to watch, it's a trip from beginning to end. I love love love the song and now I love love LOVE the music video
For some reason this song makes me cry, I guess it just hits a secret part of my soul
I loved blessthefall ever since I was 9 years old and I'm 16 now and there one of my favorite bands and always will be
Me too
Beautiful song !
Beau and Jared are growing so fucking well together. This is so refreshing. Keep THIS up guys, thank you for the good tunes.
Honestly one of my favorite song by them by far. It just speaks to me in a other level for personal reasons
Only people with passion appreciate this kind of music.
Probably my favorite song off of the new album, really good composition.
Thy evolution of blessthefall, is awesome
ABSOLUTELY LOVE!! My favorite song off the album
I love this video! The visual imagery is so stunning! I like how it's done in black and white instead of color. I feel like that makes it so much more intriguing.
Witness is still their best album for me, this new one isn' as good as i thought it would be, however i can't deny this is one of their best songs i've heard from them.
My one regret:that I didn't give these guys a chance before. They ROCK!
in love! this song is way too good, im stoked about this entire album
Amazing music video 😌 Blessthefall never disappoints 😁 the ending when Elliot screams gives me goosebumps 💓
This video is amazing! I love all the songs off the album but this has to be one of my favorites!
aaaaaaaaaa oq dizer , estou sem palavras amo BLESSTHEFALL IS MY LIFE
Amazing song I got the album preordered and it is by far the greatest bless the fall album I've heard yet
I didn't that was Elliot screaming at the end, he's a good screamer! You learn something new everyday!
Speaks to what I'm going through. Girl I was with just died and it's like these lyrics were written for me
The chorus 1:04 i get the chills. i can relate to this song.
This video is so cool! I love that BTF always includes cool affects and performance shots in their videos.
Amazing clip guys, I love it :D
I love Elliot's screams in the end :3
Wasn't a huge fan of Hollow Bodies but this new album is fantastic. Beau definitely stepped it up and Jared continues to kill it and the guitar/drums are on point. Amazing.
not a huge fan? but its their heaviest one yet!!
+f33rThys3Lf imo i think witness is heavier
Man,what a great video. The song goes perfectly with it. Not to mention it just looks badass
This is incredible. The imagery is so stunning, your hooked from start to finish. A fitting video for an amazing song!
i'm really happy that you guys used the water the way you did i think it made a cool effect and was very well done

+Hansol Try Between The Buried and Me.. not everyone can accept their style, but they are super talented musicians..
These guys are amazing. Every album is just perfect. Keep it up guys!
fortunate to have a warped tour ticket signed by all these guys. Great band!
incredible! i read what beau said about wanting a director who could portray the feeling of the song, and i think it fits perfectly!
Blessthefall forever the best ❤️🔥🎇
Omg this music video is amazing!!! The graphics are beautiful and the song is fantastic. This is definitely one of my favorite songs off of "To Those Left Behind." Congrats on the new album!!!
This one deserves more views
That outro might be one of my favorites
First song I heard on the new album and I love it. It has a unique beat we haven't heard in a while. Anyone else agree?
I really miss these guys...anyone know what happened??
Awesome video, perfect album
okay so I thought just the song was good, but this video takes it to a whole new level 😵
These guys have great music videos that are worth watching
Definitely hope to tour with these guys in the near future. Also it's crazy how fast they pump things out, music videos and all!
Que maquina de cancion hno. Como extraño esta banda y este tipo de canciones de ellos. Saludos desde Argentina. lml
The best Christian metal band ever. Underoath eat your heart out
i love this band so much and oh my god they're so amazing live
I will have to say...that back in 2009 I think it was when i first heard you guys....You weren't all that much...But with the last album it seems you guys have gotten better. I like this.
Can not wait to see you guys Oct. 25th in Birmingham so excited
3:08 gives me chills

THE BEST BAND EVER !!!! ..PLS BRING BACK AGAIN ..THE MEMORIES CHILDHOOD 😊😬
In my top 5 songs of Blessthefall. Right there next to The Reign and Hollow Bodies.
Awesome song!!! and awesome album!!! BTF forever
If anyone else was like me and kept looking for new blessthefall songs then check out High Wind. It will not disappoint.
Another great album to top the last.
Gets better every time
my favorite song on the album 😀
That feeling when you're in deep love with both the song and the music video. :-D
oh man.. that breakdown when he says "you can burn me at the stake" has got me feeling some type of way.
This band is love.

😍😍👍 I love this entire album so any song would make a good video.. this is perfect
Oh my God, this is amazing
Great music video for a great song. Love it!
Album (BLESSTHEFALL To those left behind) in my collection, vid in my favs.
