Lacey and Jared from Flyleaf play their song Arise acoustic from their new album Memento Mori that comes out November 10, 2009. Shot on October 05, 2009. This is the first full performance of the song to hit the web. flyleafonline.com
We need more artists in the mainstream with a positive message like Lacey. This song is a masterpiece and this performance was just beautiful. Lacey is the real deal because you can tell the words are authentic and she means what she is singing. Impeccable.
You know, I love this song. It sounds like it could be a good graduation song, ya know? I'm going to be starting my senior year in high school in less than two weeks. I'm so excited! "The snow on your face...razor blades," represents typical struggles and adversity people face growing up as a teenager. "Arise and be all that you dreamed," represents growing up, after high school. You find out who you really are. Arise and be, do what you love. Thank you, Flyleaf.
i love evanescence, paramore, and flyleaf. they are my three favorite bands and i dont see the point in arguing over whos better :) i love this song in my opinion best on the album
This song makes me want to cry every time I hear it. Its one of my favorites. Its between this and In The Dark. The album is amazing. If you haven't bought it yet GO DO IT NOW!
I'm going to get "Arise and be all that you dreamed" tattooed across the top part of my feet. The left foot will have "arise and be" and the right will have "that you dreamed" This song has helped me get through a lot and I know that line will help me in the future.
they are so......... i cant even explain it, just truly amazing, thier songs are just so true and inspiring, i get goose bumbs everytime i hear this song, its just epic and lacey is just amazing
wow i didn't really like this song that much until like 2 days ago haha. this and swept away are my favorites from the new album. i looove the acoustic version!
Lacy - your grace and dignity, humility and kindness, sweetness and purity, and magnificent inner beauty remind of what's best in a woman(or in human beings in general) What an inspiration.
bless her heart she is the most amazing person i have ever heard sing like that i really lookm up to her i find meanings in her songs mind you who doesnt but in this recording all those lazy people they could see she would of liked them to sing it to her but on the whole flyleaf is an amazing band with incredible meaning to their songs
@TheSpiralDownward This is why I love them so much; they've saved people through their music, they've given strength and support to so many persons without knowing it, and I'm glad they did that for you :)
@BuildDestruction i totally agree with you!!! Their songs ALWAYS lift me up and bring me closer to God!! I LOVE how meaningful and spiritual even her face is, Lacey feels every word she sings with passion and conviction! I absolutely adore Flyleaf!!
First time I heard this song, it was on this exact video a couple years ago when my mom was in the hospital. I couldn't sleep, or think, really, I was losing my mind, so I looked for a song to listen to, and found this. Almost two years later, my sister OD'ed and I'm still turning to this song for comfort in all my struggles. This band gets me through some of the worst times in my life, and I owe my sanity to them and everything they stand for.
I like the way she moves her hands when she performs. It's like she doesn't know what to do with them :D She looks so humble when she performs. Luv it!
i don't understand how one band can make me feel like this....flyleaf makes me feel so good about myself and grateful for everything i have....i got the Momemto mori album for my birthday.......best....birthday...present...EVER!!!!!! I
she is so perfect...I love this song... the original may be more rock but the lyrics are powerful...yeah...arise and be al that you dreamt,all that you dreamt!
i think this is the best acoustic version ive heard of her song...maybe it's just how it was recorded but the guitar sounds smooth instead of stringy and they sound good together :))) - for some reason i feel they should use this song in the upcoming Hunger Games movies...bad ass
People say that her voice is wobbly or unsteady, but people also say shes come a long way since the beginning. But I'm pretty sure her voice is wobbly and unsteady now because of her throat injuries and that it used to be stronger. She's building it back up pretty well though! I love her voice, it's so unique. I love those little high bits that happen every now and again at the end of a note :P
she sounds nervous they changed their song a lil but i LOVE Them theyr way too amazing they deserve so much more credit than they get!! FLYLEAF IS SO FREAKING AMAZING!:]
Theres snow on your face And your razorblade The twilight is bruised And there you lie And sing to me About the end of the world End of these hammers and needles for you And well cry tonight But in the morning we are new Stand in the sun Well dry your eyes
