'There's always hope kids, it's good, it's fine!' The tone of this line sounds like IT'S fine but not like HE'S fine. Been there, Ben. Still there, Ben.
This song probably means more to me than anything else I've heard.... I was married, had 2 kids with the woman of my dreams. I fought so hard to win her back and I would have done anything to just be with her again. I've been single since June 2018 and no girl has seemed to fill the void she left in my heart. To be honest this song has saved my life and I have nothing but my love and appreciation to give this band and this song. It's nice to know you're not alone when people hurt as much as you. But it's also painful to know someone else has to deal with the same pain. Thank you neck deep.
Thomas Murray most lead vocalists when they're doing acoustic sessions or sessions like this don't strain their vocal cords to hit those high notes but instead sing a set of different notes that still sound like they make sense
I've listened to this song for a long time, and one of my favorite books is The Catcher In The Rye---only recently did I notice how connected they kinda are. Both taking place in a cold city, and just like, wandering around searching for SOMETHING that might not ever arrive.
Lyrics Stumbled around the block a thousand times You missed every call that I had tried So now I'm giving up A heartbreak in mid December You don't give a fuck You never remember me While you're pulling on his jeans Getting lost in the big city I was looking out our window Watching all the cars go Wondering if I'll see Chicago Or a sunset on the west coast Or will I die in the cold Feeling blue and alone I wonder if you'll ever hear this song on your stereo I hope you get your ball room floor Your perfect house with rose red doors I'm the last thing you'd remember It's been a long lonely December I wish I'd known that less is more But I was passed out on the floor That's the last thing I remember It's been a long lonely December Cast me aside to show yourself in a better light I came out grieving, barely breathing and you came out alright But I'm sure you'll take his hand I hope he's better than I ever could have been My mistakes were not intentions this is a list of my confessions I couldn't say Pain is never permanent but tonight it's killing me I hope you get your ball room floor Your perfect house with rose red doors I'm the last thing you'd remember It's been a long lonely December I wish I'd known that less is more But I was passed out on the floor That's the last thing I remember It's been a long lonely December I miss your face You're in my head There's so many things that I should have said A year of suffering, a lesson learned I miss your face You're in my head There's so many things that I should have said A year of suffering, a lesson learned I hope you get your ball room floor Your perfect house with rose red doors I'm the last thing you'd remember It's been a long lonely December I wish I'd known that less is more But I was passed out on the floor That's the last thing I remember It's been a long lonely December
Id never heard of Neck Deep, then I watched this video which turned into an hour of Neck Deep videos & 15 minutes later I was ordering all of their albums, 1 Ep, & the single of this song on colored vinyl...now I'm broke but totally worth it.
Now I know the context of the song.. Its heartbreaking that hes the one apologizing for his ex cheating on him like... Hmmm... Damn bro. Youre hurt hurt.
This song came out at the perfect time for me, really got me through my dark December a few years back after I was cheated on as well. Just felt like the song was written for me. Such a great song and will always hold a place in my heart.
The way he looks down after saying "we'll just write songs about it" before the song starts.. The look in his eyes. I know that look all too personally. I can tell he knows he will never truly be the same deep down despite trying to force himself to be positive. I instantly started crying my eyes out. Ive never seen that specific masked raw human emotion anywhere but a mirror before
I can relate to him, totally. Been there, & tbh the scar is still there to this day & it still bothers me sometimes. P.S. I absolutely love this song, it was the first Neckdeep song I ever heard. It'll always be my favourite. 👍🏼

I found this song, which was also the first neck deep song I heard, while trying to find a playlist for me and my ex to listen to. This became my favorite song for a while, little did I know she would dump me for another guy in december and this song would become my comfort song
Been listening to this song coz the lyrics are kinda related to what happened to me. I just watched this video and learned about the inspiration to this song, sucks it happened exactly to me..
I always wish he would try singing that acoustic version on that studio version. The key is lower than this but he could actually give justice on that bridge part and on that "I miss you but I wish you well" on the last part.. Someday, please sing that to us Ben.
