I want my life - Smile Empty Soul 

One of the most underrated bands ever.

I discovered this band because someone threw a broken mix cd on the ground in a parking lot and i was able to find out the list of songs that were on it. I was very lucky that day.

All this pain and yet this music keeps us all connected. Thank you Sean.

This band is INCREDIBLY UNDERRATED. Sean Danielson has an amazing voice.

One of the most beautiful songs ever. I'll never stop listening to it. Thank you Sean.

A BAND FOR HISTORY TO NEVER FORGET

One of my favorite underrated bands

im 31 now. i was 20 when i got this cd. it saved my life. this band will always have a special place in me

my girl and I sing it but we say "I want my life, with you by my side"...

Great album really helps with my depression and anxiety, I think I have a bipolar disorder because of how I get low and happy every day

I really missed this song it's beautiful

Still one of my favorite songs , and I learned how to play it :)

This song reminds me of my good old friend DJ. I miss singing this song w him on the days where I thought I couldnt go on any longer. DJ u r always forever in my heart

Dude, this album isn’t on Spotify! So this is a huge to find on YouTuve

This band was in the background when I was on video chat on house arrest. They got me through the 11 month unable to go outside and love my homies. I had my grandparents though. We watched western movies and ate twk dinners alot. Turned 18 with that ankle monitor on. That was in Illinois Got off that. So I moved to my dad's house. Watched as California went to double shit again. Moved to my mama house in Idaho. Went through shit again. Was homeless in the college town. I came down here and my life a western movie. One street town. I stay to myself and I got a girlfriend. She has a son. Love that little guy.

that album was the album that got me through allot of high school so i learned the entire album on guitar there one of the most underrated bands out there

This song saved my life multiple times...

Don't give up y friend. You are loved, Never by who you expect it from at first, but if it's one thing I've learnt from this band....it's that no matter how hard it gets, keep faith in the lord...We are all imperfect, but with him by our side, no one can be against us...afterall Jesus is all we really need...the rest is what we want.

I always listen to this song when I'm depressed

hey dan frost I feel the same way about this band they gave me hope when I felt like everything was over when I lost my friends mike and Jessie to a car accident my two rocks...... I felt solice in the words of smile empty soul and 3 days grace two under estimated bands

I hate....and love this song so much.

love this song. this album helped me when i was,13

God how this song tastes so much sweeter now

Having gone through divorce with two beautiful kids…. I miss waking up everyday to see them and putting them to bed every night 😢

This song would be well covered by a guitar and a violin.

Thank's convolk you safe my life at the end will all make it.

this album got me thru highschool

smile empty soul save my life too

why does everyone think this is depressing i mean everyone on my school thinks so but this is the kind of music i listen to. mabey it is becuase i'm falling in depression again and no one can stop it but still. Not that people care through.

goood luck :)

Oh my god that's so sad

This song reminds me of the Iraq War

bro...I have exacly same situation ;/

It didn't save my life... true story

Love this song and the guitar in it

Get some friends, if you are a genuine person it can't be that hard, though a lot of people suck. Might take some time. And just talk to that girl, she will probably rip your heart out. My dream girl did recently, but hey at least now I know, instead of having to always wonder.

Smile Empty Songs explains my life. Hearing these songs when I'm out of control or breaking down really helps calm me down. Its helping.

Very underrated. Helped me through alot in my teenage angst years. And still helping me as a husband and dad. Helps me start conversations with myself that I push down and try and hide.

Love this song explains exactly whats going on in my life. Definitely one one the best songs of all time and one of the best bands out there. Truly legendary indeed. Whos listening in 2023

MTV used to be such a good way to discover new music, because of MTV, I discovered this Band and bought the album, crazy how time just flew by, I'm 27 now

All their music gives me goosebumps, and that is the sign of true music

I used to listen to this song as a senior’s anthem in 2003 as school was letting out. I still can recall , can even smell, those chilly spring nights in the back seat with my then girlfriend and early May mornings driving in listening to this for my last few times to stroll the halls. We were kings! That was only the beginning of life…

Every once in awhile I think about this band and get the sudden urge to listen to this song. So good

30 years old and i still completely relate them... such a good band...

Im actually seeing them live tomorrow night. Im 27 and have loved this band for a long long time. I know how they have alrrady changed my life but seeing them live is only going to make it better

This is a band that won’t be understood even by people in rock heavy metal circles but will be understood by the generation it was released in to us this album saved us and gave us comfort that we weren’t the only ones who were feeling this way

It's like I'm always wrong and made so many mistakes, and I never did anything.

GREAT WAY TO GO.... to hell with everyone who takes others down. I am in my mid 50's. So bullied at school,(and I was really good looking, and a great figure, but so - so shy), such a long time ago,lived with it, suffered much. BUT NOW I AM SUITABLY MYSELF. 'you go and get "it all for yourself".... NEVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF.....

my parents split up and I got through this by working very long hours for three years I want my life back and when I wake up I want my dad to still be here back to the way it was :(((

This album saved my life as well. It really brought me through some hard times and I can't wait to see Smile Empty Soul in June. :)

This song was and still is literally the voice of reason when my life is crazy, instantly makes everything easier to deal.

this album saved my life... true story

In all honesty it should be a crime how underrated Smile Empty Soul is. Personally I think a major reason is due to SES being the type of band whos songs becomes the voice for people who are struggling, saying the things some people are for one reason or another too scared to say. I Want My Life, Stay Alive, Don't Ever Leave, With This Knife. I could go on about the amount of times these past few years I've struggled so bad, but I've found comfort when I heard THIS

This song brought me out of my depression this band knows the words to help anybody in life

I FUCKIN LOOVE THIS SONG!!! man the good years... i use to listen to this on reply constantly great for train rides or when i'm in a shitty mood but this soong is just sooo good

I've had people knock me down all my life. Now I have only one goal in life. Finish my Tafe course get as much money as I can and take the next flight on out of this country and go and see the world. That's my life. Don't give up on your own life :)

Great song hell of a good album

One of my secret favourites. Smile empty Soul, thanks for saying what I couldn't. Been listening for years. Still enjoying it all now 2019 (almost 2020

we all deserve someone!! unfortunately most of us have to deal with these few awful people that are around.. just know that one day your search will lead you face to face with that special someone, when you least expect it!!

Youre not alone. There are so many people feelin like you do. But there is a way. I found it. Never lose hope

i am so sorry for u something simular happened like to me

this guys are pure true hearted Rock stars. I am glad of their existence and their songs are like heaven.

Apple Music can you put this album up, thanks. Sincerely Nowhere Kids.

What a song!!!

Very sad song kinda makes you more depressed:/

this entire song describes exactly my way of thinking its almost like sean danielson grew up with me

Im listening right now trying to deal with splitting from a psycho who had repeatedly assaulted me (whacked with 2ft long marble candke thing resulting 8 staples to back of head trying to get away from her so I didnt do anything i regret, or sucker punched in the nose walking into a hotel after a fun night, or getting attacked driving at 70 mph, almost crashing and getting bit on the face) and last sunday i was laying under the coveres when she jimped up straddled my chest and proceeded to strangle me until i started to pass out, followed by many punches in the face as i struggled to free my arms. So, i am listening now and she is getting all mad, talking about how it sounds like a whiney baby...lol....mind you, she is listening to whiney victim music like lanna del ray, etc. With all that said.....she tripped out because i have ended up with about 20 new FB friends over the last 3 weeks that i did not add. Oddly...one friend was a girl I dated for a few weeks, almost 7 years ago that lives in saudi arabia. So now i am a cheater, even after i have her my phone to make sure she knew that I had zero interactions with the page, no likes, comments, messeges etc. Even then she calls me a cheater and that I dont love her. Let me ask you, if I didnt deeply love her....would i still be here after years of violence from her hands? She did me a favor by strangling me! Now i must move forward and let her get what she reaps. She is going to come across a man with her same level of self control.....and he will do horrible things to her. I hope it doesnt happen, but it unfortunately will

still on my favorites list

ohh the highschool feeling

I've locked myself in my room with booze and just listen to this for hours.

great song , bring me good memories in high school 🫠

It's like they knew the future or something

this world is fucking crazy

Why did you do this. I don't know what I done.

❤️

@CheersBros Hi Cheers! I have felt the same way a long time ago. It was really tough to cope with everything going on around me, I had no friends, was way to shy to even speak to a girl. No one I could trust. But someone once told me that when I grow up, I would understand that Mankind will always try to do everything with their own strength, understanding, and reason. Now, I'm only 21 now, but I already know what it means. It means to not depend on others to live a happy life. trust in God.

I bought their cd a long time ago, however my CDs were stolen. I enjoy this band and would often go walking and listening to this song and others by Smile Empty Soul on my CD player.

Timeless !

My parents split 5 years ago when I was 16... it's been 5 years and it seems to still bother me even though it's not at the forefront of my thought process anymore. Ever since it seems like it's been an up hill climb to fight for a better life despite the bitterness that event instilled in me. Trying to keep the faith my mother placed in me, losing it eventually. I want my life back from the anger and grieving. These guys, Seether and Alter Bridge seemed to save me to this day.

and there not much to saying over internet. because bo, about it. is shareing any got it. question. to tailing or tailing me bein. thing about it. what id should about it. taken care of baddies and known, where dose people. making very, rich , not poor. where id can raise. my kids. what leah e.fitz, was about it.vernons, family hood. okay

First got this cd when I was 7 years old, my dad liked the band so I liked them. Never really connected with the songs personally until I hit high school, and then even more a year or two ago. Hands down best album/band in my musical collection.

I too am joining the service. I leave shortly. But I do not want to anymore. I will do it but I will be away from the one I love and my friends and family for well over a year. I am afraid of what might happen upon my return. This is honestly the first time I have been afraid.

well, no, body tailing bein. thing about it. life. gose on about it. interesting thing about people on my celluar phone. and id just dont known, what there to talking all.. about it. on this internet all.. time. okay

Great song found ses years ago helped me with my fight and I think it was cause they sing about the whole god thing I'm in a really really hard point in my life and well this song helps out some

I used to say killing yourself was a cowards act..in some ways it is bc you destroy the ppl who lve you, even if you think no one does. Ive thought about it, but then when something good happens the next day, week or w.e i think on all those good occasions " damn, i could be dead rite now". Do whatever the fuck you want bc its your life. Go live.

You and me both

i want my life back. i changed class from a very good class to a bad one, just cause i thought my friends in the bad class really were my friends... but a year after i switched class, they just ignored me and kind of bullied me. at this time , i had lost my friends in the other class. and now there is just a half year left of the school before high school for me. im strogn enough to go through a half year! and when high school start , im gonna make sure i get some real friends. this is my life.

This song got me through some dark times of addictio s and still makes me cry to this day 2 years sober

I could see that, like i said might take time, people suck. And the being genuine DOES NOT apply to females haha, that will kill your shot everytime.

Why isn't this on iTunes? How do I get this song on my iPod to have forever/whenever?

being genuine doesn't apply to many people actually. Even though I was treated horribly and maliciously betrayed by one, it should still be noted that there are many of them on both sides.

Worst that happens is ppl don't accept u for who u are but that's how u filter true friends. Just take what u wnt from life. talk to this chick and no matter how many let downs are on ur bck just keep movin forwarde and u cant not achieve...

Geez they make me feel like a teenager again. Like im in high school, walking down the hallway, heading to my car, or to class. :// I want that life back. Being an adult sucks.

@rickmaff ur one of the lucky one's to use that description and live most ppl who used that and got thier vid deleted bc of "copyright infringement"

@corleynine no it does not. if you have a good life, its nice to life ofc, but if you have a bad life, just try to turn it to a good life. simple

😔😞🥺

I wish I could wake up with the only woman I have ever loved.. I miss you Michelle..

um.. id just uh, like playing cooler, video games.okay

@sa22driver I'm still trying to get over my girlfriend killing herself with my hand gun, I'm surprised I'm still alive

Such a good song
