WOW!! SO EVOCATIVE! AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING. EVERYTHING A BAND IN THIS DAY & AGE SHOULD BE. SHAME IS IMPOSED BY OTHERS, OFTEN WITHOUT JUSTIFICATION OR UNDERSTANDING & NEVER W/EMPATHY. WILL WORK ON WATCHING MY JUDGEMENTAL NATURE; YOU ARE SO RIGHT, IT IS UNFAIR AND USELESS TO 'JUDGE A LIFE THAT YOU CAN'T CHANGE...'

This song kills my heart. My step-father battled addiction, and was lost to it almost three years ago, this is his song. When I hear it, it reminds me of him. He would have loved it. He was a good man, but that isn't what people saw when they looked at him.

this song makes me think about all of my fellow military veterans who are homeless & needing a helping hand.
it makes me cry to think that for everything that our veterans have given & done for this country, that they get treated like second- and third-class citizens!!!!

Thank you guys! Your music helped me grieve the loss of my brother when he chose to leave this world seven years ago and now it is helping me with the loss of my husband and the father of my children who ended his life 12 days ago. My husband was a lost man in this world and I felt I needed to speak for him at his funeral and this song and video was my eulogy for him. I can not thank you enough for giving me the words I needed. (FYI when my 11 year old saw this video his response was "spot on" regarding his father). My boys and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. And now I am starting to understand that my pain is a gift.

This video is amazing! I love how it's all drawings! It is so creative. The lyrics are amazing. I love the message of the song why judge a person when no human being is the same! :)

Your music cuts through me. It's so real and emotionally felt. I lost my Pap earlier this year, my bestfriend, my hero, my everything...

The very first time I heard this song it reminded me of my dad who died backin '08 when I was 15.Everyday I think of him.Your music has helped me through that and so much more in life.Thank you guys to no end :)

I relate to this song in a lot of ways. Currently it is because I got divorced last year and did not work 4 years prior to the divorce because my husband wanted me to stay home and take care of the kids. I had good jobs 10 years ago and now I can't get one. People act like I am not trying when I am and they do not understand how frustrating it is. I've lost the place where I lived, had to give my children to my ex-husband which is fine I trust him and live with my sister who has success and everything and does not understand why I am having problems. There are alot of people having problems and I can imagine that they feel like a failure such as I and I am told I am not but it is hard to see because I can't even take care of myself with no job. One thing you should never do is tell a person it can't get worse because it does. I am going to college so it is in my hopes something works out for me in the end. People are not the same and people should respect that and not judge ever, it's not their right to judge.

TOUCHING....MAKES YOU THINK.....WHAT IF THAT WERE ME? WOULD I WANT TO BE TREATED AS SUCH?

Another soul wrenching, thought provoking song. Love it. At 43, you'd think I wouldn't need to crank the car stereo and force 50 vehicles on either side of a stop light to listen to what is in mine. But this is a song all should listen to and maybe think, if they are one of the ones who judge.
