I've lost my daughter. 2nd wife over 10 other people recently, each one has a amazing amount of memories that flood my brain it's overwhelming at times ,I'm old and lived a very fast life ,death has almost got me many times. I was told by doctors to put my affairs in order and lay on the table , I was kept asleep for a week and they woke me up to the most pain I've ever felt. Somehow I moved on and I'm still here.
Youth and stupidity go hand and hand! With age and as time passes, we realize like you said it was there in front of us all along! I know what you mean bro
Lost my Daddy a few weeks ago, he was 57 I'm 33. Liver cancer, this song just bleeds what I feel about my old man. Wish I could of talked to him one more time. Love your folks, you never know when it's the last time.
My friend's dad died a week ago from liver cancer. Funeral was yesterday. I don't have parents, but his dad was closest thing to a dad. Hard worker. Simple. Few words. Man of his word.
Hi Frank, even though your father is not physically with you, he will always be with you in your heart. Just a comforting statement. God bless you and your family.
My dad died in 2000 and I carried guilt over his passing for many years. He died alone in a rented apartment and was there for several days before being discovered by the police in a wellness check by his neighbor. I was married with a young family and missed many opportunities to connect with him over the final years of his life. This song was the first time I shed tears over his death around 17-18 years after he was gone. I don't know if my psyche was protecting me with denial over my involvement in our growing apart, but I finally took responsibility for my end of things. I hope no one else would make the mistake that I did but unfortunately I think it's actually quite common. Now I have grown children moving on with their lives and I sometimes wonder if the cycle will repeat itself with me.
my father passed away in 2015 and i really thought over time that maybe it would get better.. but it never does. He haunts my dreams as much as i hated him. I now see how hard he tried, I didnt consider much when I was a child, I didnt realize how this world has a way of destroying us all. Nobody is special.
This song really hits close to home for me right now. June 7th 2020 I lost my wife after being married 25 years she passed away the day before my birthday. I love her and I miss her terribly she was my soulmate I love you Julie
My condolences to you for the loss of your wife 😥 I am so sorry. Sending you much love hugs and positive energy for your grieving journey. 💜 💫Until You two meet again in another time and place. One step at a time, one breath at a time, one day at a time. 💜💫
I'm an addict,I love my sweet children with all my heart,I'm a functioning addict,just enough to do life😔we never stop loving our babies though.your one thing we think of 24/7.Im sorry,pray for the addicts that remain,find whatany may need for help.God help us addicts and the families we hurt,amen❤
This was one of my sons favorite songs... We had it playing at his viewing and funeral this past week... My son passed away on New Years Eve after a hard fought battle from an antibiotic causing his body to go into toxic shock and shutting down his organs .. he was just 26years old. MISS YOU 💔 Brandon!
Theresa Vogel I'm so very sorry for your loss 💔 . . . He will ALWAYS be with you because you carry him in your 💓. My dad passed away 22 years ago. I still cry at times especially when Ionging for his hug or to look into his eyes then I remembere he is right here with me in my 💓 and this world, this life is only temporary and one day soon we will meet again. 🤗 Look for the subtle signs & the dreams to come your way and know it's your son trying to get a message through that he made it and he is free now... 🙏🕯️
I love it when a person hears a song like this one and I can't help but get chocked up because my wife was murdered and her death took such a toll on my son and he passed away as well when he turned to drugs and ever since I've been so lost without them it's so beautiful to have a song like this one to touch ones soul especially around the holidays when they at times can be so overwhelming 💔
I lost my dad after his battle with diabetes infections and liver problems august 9th 2023 let the light shine and remember all the good time u had together i love you dad
It's funny how life throws us all such unexpected curveballs. When I'd first hear this song in November of 2014, it hit hard and I didn't even know the meaning of suffering. Now, two and half years later, I've lost my grandmother, and four close friends, all of which were like my own flesh and blood. My own brothers. The biggest thing I want to say to anyone who feels the need to read this is this; No matter how hard your struggles become, now matter what they are, no matter how high your barriers may seem, you can rise above it. You can overcome it. For anyone who has contemplated or attempted suicide, please don't. I beg of you. The crater that you'll create in your loved one's souls will be forever unchangeable. I believe in you.
Colton, Harper - I feel your pain brothers, every ounce of it.. In the 35 years I have walked this Earth, I have lost six people I loved like family to suicide and almost as many to cancer.. Two very close to me took their lives just recently.. It never gets easier and the grief it leaves behind in the world afterwards is soul shattering.. It's taught me two things.. Never take a day with someone you love for granted and if you see someone is depressed, be there for them. A hug or a quiet word to just let them know you care before it's too late..
This song reminds me of my father. He was diagnosed with 2 different cancers a month and a half ago and he's been fighting for his life in the hospital. I love you dad and I hope you get to come back home to us. ❤
I lost my dad in January 2020 , and I feel the pain every day , I'm really sorry to hear about the passing of your father , I know exactly what you are going through
They say time heals all wounds but some wounds cut deeper and hurt more than others, for me, I lost my dad 4 years ago (it'll be 4 years in March). I was 17 then and 21 now, it still hasn't gotten easier and some days are tougher than others. But hope you're doing well bro, thanks for the positive words.
@@brandonfurtado2 I can only imagine how you feel brother. 😔 Stay strong ❤ Just this morning my roomate found out his father passed away. I feel terribly sad for him. He lives half a world away so there was nothing he could do. Everyone had their time bro. You are not alone. God bless
@@waterproof4403 thanks bro, and I can imagine how your roommate feels. Its one of the most tragic and emotionally numbing experiences to go through. But we all gotta do our best to hang in there. Sending sympathy and positivity to your roommate and you too bro. Stay strong 🙏💪
We may have all been though rough patches in life but if everyone would come together life would be better so we can help each other through rough times.
Stephanie, I completely understand.. The same happened to me, I haven't seen my son in over 3 yrs.. I literally fought end stage cancer and his mom just up and left state with my son without saying anything to me or my family and there was nothing I could do... My heart gets torn apart every time I talk to him on the phone.... I miss my son so much it literally hurts me.. ❤My heart goes out to you. ❤I hope you can see your baby again!
When I first heard this song, I thought it was good. When my sister died, and then my mother a year later, this song became my refuge. I absolutely love the second verse because that's exactly how I felt for the longest time. I would be going along just fine, not necessarily happy but fine, then all the sudden I'd sink and have to fight back tears. The pain never truly goes away
Lost my dad several years ago. This Father's Day has been hard. Miss his wisdom. Torn to Pieces and Dax's To Be a Man remix has brought this old vet to tears daily.
This song showed up shortly after my Dad died in August of 2014. This song helped me through the grieving. Thanks Pop Evil! You are 1 of my favorite bands!
What a beautiful way to honor a fathers spirit..I also see my dads face everyday.he passed away in 1995 and i have been lost since he left me.. This song really makes me think of him..POP EVIL ROCKS!!
Sleep well brother knowing he still watches over you. My father does since 1998, him and my mother watch over me & my kids. Great tribute song from a son who knows how much his father did for him.
Its been 4yrs since my father has passed from cancer on my birthday.. I miss you pop aka Chef-O I'm still carrying the torch for you and keeping your legacy alive. Love you always.........
Cancer took my Father from us as well 2 years ago and I aint been right since the song isnt what reminds me or has got me thinking of my Dad That'd be you and David I miss my dad Thanks Bro and Hey I am sorry y'all lost yerv Dads too it took 46 years for that man to say I love you son He also told nme he was proud of me So My Dad was 72
CycoDawg Sorry for your loss as well me and my father didn't get along for awhile bc he wasn't in my life growing up, But we just started back over hanging out and meeting my other brothers. When they told me he had cancer then passed the following week. I was overwhelmed with grief nobody knew until it was to late. But I'm glad i set things right with my father before all that happened.
this song has taken me through a lot of hard times growning up, i've always loved pop evil, revisiting this song and realizing the song was about his father passing hit me terribly hard, i lost my grandmother, father and uncle this year, within a month of each other, and this song is just echoing how empty i've been feeling since
I now know the meaning of suffering, after 21 years of marriage my wife at 41 years old passed away from Cancer of the bone marrow. This song really slapped me in the back of the brain and reached into my heart. So many things I have been feeling and thinking over the past 2 plus months have been put to words for me, thank you for putting those emotions to words for us all!
Hang in there sweetie..Never give in and if you do, just know that it is only one step back! Know that, take a deep breath, don' t give up! Take it from a woman who has been there! Forgive yourself, keep going!
The intro alone is so hauntingly sad and amazing I could listen to it on loop, the whole song just cuts right through to the soul. He has a great voice
My father just passed away tonight. We live in separate countries and I never got to say goodbye. He had been battling auto immune diseases for years. Had multiple strokes and a heart attack. I knew he wasn't going to live forever, but it hurts so much. I can't fly over and say goodbye due to corona restrictions. Fly high dad, I love you forever and will always be thinking about you. 🖤🖤🖤🖤
I'm deeply sorry I also lost my father pretty resently 9/15/2020 he had a heart attack he was 47. Nobody knew until it was too late. I have just been trying to do the best I can to get through each day.
My grandpa just passed away yesterday, and listening to this song finally let my tears out. He had a heart attack while driving. It's amazing how quick that stuff happens. I miss you grandpa. I'll remember you always.
lost my dad to a heart attack he was cleaning the yard and doing outside work on a real hot summer day in 1996 he came in and had a heart attack and died in the house i couldn't save him
I lost my dad may 27th 2021… my friend showed me this band and found this song when I learned he was diagnosed with liver failure. He was a hard alcoholic and it got the best of him… I listen to this song and the song my parents danced to the night they met and it gives me such emotion. I know it’s different from what he talks about being half the man he wanted him to be but I relate more to the words of being torn to pieces and broken down.. seeing him when he’s not around and wishing I said thing and he said things he never said. I’m missing him lots right now and forever will miss him. Love you dad, rip🌹💕💕
I grew up listening to what is now called "classic rock". I was worried the next generation couldnt produce rock music worthy of listening. Pop Evil has done something that gives me hope. They made/make music that is worthy. Thank You from a 70's child.
The first time i heard this song i knew my dad was going. And i told my husband this is dad's song. So every time i hear your song it makes my remember him. Thank you❤
Love This Song... To All The Mothers, Brothers & Sisters, Aunties, Uncles ...That Hold A True Place In All Our Hearts, We Love You!, Rock On Forever \m/\m/
My dad passed away last Wednesday, I was leaving work on my way to see him when my wife called and said he passed away ten minutes ago, I lost it!!! I wasn't able to say goodbye. This song really does help thank you Pop Evil I needed something to relate to. They told my my dad had 6 months, he died 3 weeks later, never take anything for granted it'll be gone in a blink of an eye.
I got a call from my mom that my dad wasn't doing well, she was in the hospital with him. I heard him in good spirits in the background and thought everything was fine. The next call was a call for help from my mom. By the time I got there, they had already sedated him and had a tube down his throat. They told us he was stable, went out to dinner with my mom and little brother. That night he coded twice. Watched my dad die on the hospital table. Never got to say goodbye. I feel you. Legit.
I lost my dad too. He was battling some issues and took his life. It's pretty nice to know that someone else can take comfort in this song for the same reason I do. Sometimes I just crank it and let out a good cry. Always makes me feel better. Sending love to you and yours Jeremiah.
This song always hits my heart strings. Cry every time. Lost my brother to suicide years ago. Seems like yesterday. A day that changed my life forever. 💔
I lost my second youngest brother and 2 friends to a DUI driver in 1998. I feel your pain and am sure that he would want the best for you. I'll pray for you. Have a good day.
Lost my Father to suicide back in 2006 right after my high school graduation. I ended up becoming addicted to opiates (as was my father, it heavily contributed to his death) soon after and it wasn't until I truly needed him for the first time in my life and he wasn't there I think about how different my life path would have been if he has been alive but mostly if I had received proper counseling/therapy for the loss. Now I know my life would of been completely different, not even close to where im at today utterly alone and full of pain and agony of my terrible life choices after his passing my life went into a twister and it started at age of 18 and I'm now 34 years old (My father was 44 at time of his death) meaning he will most likely have lived nearly 10 years longer then his son did.
My wife and I are going through a divorce after 25 years of marriage and 3 amazing kids. We've both moved on and have found happiness but i hear this song and it makes me wish I/we made better decisions to make it work. I know we are done but I'll always love her and only wish happiness for her future.
My wife and I are on our second year. Its so tough right now. huge transition out of the military; out of our stability. Our newborn born last December, another on the way. We moved twice to find a good foothold. Struggling to find a meaningful and beneficial job to support us. We've been struggling all year with our relationship and at times I just cant take the fighting anymore. She moved back to her parents and took our son because we were / are so bad right now. There's so much I regret and some things I will have to move past. Sometimes I just wish it was over, and I hate myself for it. "Half the man you wanted me to be" hits me hard in feeling like nothing I do is good enough. I find solace in the fact that either way this plays out we will be better off. I just wish to be as a family with our kids to be the result. But this road is hard, harder than any challenge I've faced yet; and I feel like I'm unraveling at both ends. Your comment resonated with me for wishing for our happiness and love, but the outcomes can very. Hopefully we can get the outcome you sometimes wish for. But at the end I am just glad we will be better off.
@@samuelrogers8498 Come to Goshen Indiana Brother. If you still got your knees there's good money up here right now in building RVs and Boats... Keystone RV is probably the best paying right now. I make $1,500 Gross most weeks and only work 30-35 hours a week. We're paid by production Rate... More units we put out the more money we make ... It's fast paced work and the money is good... but what's better is getting off by noon and having the rest of the day with family.. My plant starts at 4:30 and most days I'm clocking out at 11:30... Anyway, If you can make it here there's money to be made.. Nice neighborhoods and Great K-12 schools.... No matter what you do don't you fucking give up... We gotta live for our brothers that didn't come back... We're out here, We got your 6
Brian Carnevale I lost my dad at at a young age. As well as my Mum Dad passed a year later , Margaret Mary Moran Carnevale, age 71, formerly of Bedford, NH and Bradenton, FL, passed away on Tuesday, November 18, 2003. Survivors include her husband of 43 years, Anthony Carnevale; daughter, Ann Farmer; son, Brian Carnevale This Still chokes me up.
One of the most raw lyrics a man can express without ascending to the next realm. You all hit it at home, time after time.... and do it all over again, thank you...
I just heard this song, this band a few days ago. I can't stop listening to it. So good!!! Very talented men! 🎵 I can feel the hurt as he sings. ! I believe his Dad is proud of him!
I lost my mother a couple of weeks ago. I heard this song on the radio and fought back tears. Last time I saw her was I took her for a big dinner on her birthday and we had an awesome time...I was supposed to take her to a big metal concert this year. RIP mum.
found this while playing games at midnight. this song made me listen again and it broke me. tears were flowing down while i called my dad. knowing one day he'll be gone is....indescribable. My heart just hurts hearing this song.
You know life has to come to its deepest. I've never met my grandma when I was 1, she died of cancer.. I couldn't handle how sad I was of it. Nobody really cared for my lost.. That kept tearing me apart. I miss you grandma🌺🌸♥️
The starkness of the opening outdoor scene is unique and very palpable. The song and video match so well I'm compelled to watch this over and over. Sometimes art portrays reality but other times it creates it.
Lost my mom too man. This song came on the radio when I was crying wishing my mom was with my family that came on vacation. All I could think is it's awesome my family is finally here. And all I felt was the void my mom wasn't here too.
i lost my father when i was 17, ended up in his shoes to take care of my family, ended up addicted to drugs, and lost everything, now graduating school and raising a little girl with the help of my girlfriend, and clean!... This song expresses exactly what I wonder
My father wasn't ever really there. My grandfather was however, and I lost him a few years back. He's the person I hope is looking down on me with a smile on his face. He was my best friend and shared a lot of wisdom with me. He's the man who made me who I am today. Yea, I was addicted to drugs as well, I partied like a rock star, and just thoroughly didn't give a shit about my life. I coulda died and probably should have a couple of times. Today, 5 years later, I have a 4 year old little girl, with hardly anyone to turn to. I've been doing it myself for a long time, and it's been a struggle the whole way. Though, as rough as it's been, I would have to say I am successful. I own my own photography business, have a wife, a decent car, and am close to beginning a career that I love without a lick of schooling. As rough as it has been, I've always kept my head up, I have always moved forward some way, some how. Keep your head up bro.. life is a motherfucker but you do it for that little girl.
Thanks man, that's really great and I appreciate you sharing your story with me, congratulations on all your successes it's stories like that, that give me hope
As I sit here scrolling through all the comments I say to myself it can always be worse. Someone out there is always going through tougher times than you. Never take things for granted cus you never know what’s right around the corner.
This really rips my heart out. My father died of cancer at 43, I watched him suffer and die. Really makes think about him. I miss him so bad and can’t stop thinking about everything he wasn’t there for
When I first heard it, it touched me in that way (except with an ex) now that I lost my mom last March it hits differently. Pain is pain and songs have different meanings during different chapters of our life. Hopefully your next chapter is better.
I'll always love ya Dad........I miss you so much and it's been over 22 years. It never gets easier, just gets repetitive. Cancer took you away from us and I could only imagine what you were going through when you were taking those last breaths. I keep you alive in memories and often when I talk about how you thought everything up to the age of 13. R.I.P. Mr. Cosarca Til we meet again Dad I'll always have you in my thoughts and dreams.........most importantly in my ❤️
Please dont....life is hard... it does get better .thats not what you want to hear. People love u and care for you. Dont spread the pain ..learn from it.
Lost mom and dad and several friends/brothers. This song is awesome. Always leaves me in tears. But a great release of bottled emotions. Thankful for this moment.
My dad suffered from a TBI. He's alive, but DEFINITELY not the same. I miss the good days when he'd let me stay home from school to help him work on the car and we'd listen to megadeath and pantera. Taught me how to check my oil, change the tires ect. He was the pack leader of his friends, literally. Anytime someone needed help they'd call my dad. Now that he's here...but gone. I dream of making him proud. I'm a crime fighter, I decided to protect people for a living to make my dad proud. The good thing about all of this and the line of work is that I'm not scared to die anymore. Because I'll be with my father. The closest thing I've had to a father in life was my drill instructor.
+Stephen Arden-magmar You get what you earn, folks that show no respect shouldn't get any. It's not so much sinking to their level as it is not spending any effort on someone unworthy of it. You'd be giving too much of yourself then. +Avenging Angel Powerful post man, thanks for sharing, thanks for what you do.
Not a lot of songs can remind me of the pass but you guys hit it spot on lost a lot loved ones that kept me goin now its just me thanks guys for keeping them alive
+Susan Staley-Simpson They're paying Oddbody's in Dayton on the 19th of December. Hope to see you there, Ms. Simpson. Awesome we cross paths so often. Hope life is treating you well.
To all the fathers who were an important part of your sons lives, and we're taken away so unexpectedly, we miss you no matter how many years have passed, and we feel that sting every day. We miss you, we love and most importantly we will NEVER forget you.😅😳❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ R.I.P. Dad 10/23/10
Loss is difficult, especially someone close... I lost my son and I have never in all my life felt so fucking helpless or lost. This song brings tears to my eyes, but it also captures the way I feel when I think of my Son... Love you William Rivera... RIP
Robert Rivera i feel ya my pastor and great uncle died fron different causes but i am torn apart with no friends and douchebags that will joke around about this stuff but losing a son is tough
I'm not sure if this is the same bobby Rivera I knew he was one off the best people I ever meet and we had a great friendship he was always there when I needed him I wish I could have been there for him
"Torn To Pieces" Here I sit all alone like an airplane On the edge of a sky full of solid gray Staring at the ceiling, tell me that I’m dreaming Oh, I wish you were here today All these days that I know I’ll never get back All the words that I always wish you would’ve said All these dreams that we had now fade to black Try to wash it away I’m torn to pieces, I’m broken down I still see your face when you’re not around I sit here in misery wondering if I’ll ever be Half the man you wanted me to be Here I float through the air like a waterfall Then I sink to the bottom like a cannonball Having trouble breathing, suddenly I’m screaming, "Why wasn’t I good enough?" Even though I know you’re not gonna come back I can’t wash it away I’m torn to pieces, I’m broken down I still see your face when you’re not around I sit here in misery wondering if I’ll ever be Half the man you wanted me to be I’m torn to pieces, I’m broken down I still see your face when you’re not around I sit here in misery wondering if I’ll ever be Half the man you wanted me to be It’s tearing me to pieces Tearing me to pieces It’s tearing me to pieces Tearing me to pieces Even though I know you’re not gonna come back I can’t wash it away I’m torn to pieces, I’m broken down I still see your face when you’re not around I sit here in misery wondering if I’ll ever be Half the man you wanted me to be I’m torn to pieces, I’m broken down (I’m torn to pieces) I still see your face when you’re not around (I’m torn to pieces) I sit here in misery wondering if I’ll ever be Half the man you wanted me to be
This makes me think of my great great aunt who was like my mom to me. She always called me baby boy every time she saw me. And I remember I told my mom every time we left her place in New Orleans to head back to Alabama, I told my mom I didn’t wanna leave her because I didn’t know if that’d be the last time ever. Well it wasn’t thank god but on May 29th 2017 I lost this special person. After being by her side during hospice, my mom gave her cpr while I had to stand there and watch to see if she could get my great great aunt back, and she was rushed to the hospital and then that moment hit me, she’s gone. Doctors came into this private room and told us they couldn’t get her back. Oh I miss you Aunt Rita soar high for me everyday❤️
This song hits me everytime I hear it, my father got killed on his motorcycle July 19th by a semi at 1:19 in the morning coming back from DC, and I remember the call from my mom telling me what happened. And all I can remember is the last conversation my dad and I ever had and will have. This song just makes remember and reflect on all the things we did and things we.will never do, and he will never get to see his grandchildren.
This will always bring me back to the time when my mom passed away, I still get flashbacks of being at the hospital... I can't believe it's been 3 years since then... I miss you every day mama. I love you.
I mean, I am kinda late with hearing this song but it touches me so much... Lost 2 very close friends of mine. One in 2017 and one last year a couple of days before Christmas... After that, I have been through a lot, because it was so unbelievable that they were gone. I broke down when they died. It just shocked me to the core. Still miss you guys 🤘
This reminds me of my father that passed in 1989. Breaks my heart.......beautiful memories though that will always stay in my heart and soul. Thank you for writing this.......I always thought I was a disappointment of the youngest daughter. 3 elder brothers...2 left barely. Do your best you can!
I thought this was about a girlfriend or significant other. Reminds me of my late daughter. Now seeing the video I am reminded of my dad who is reaching the end
A song always remembers when!!! My heart goes out to you and yours!! cherish your memories no matter how short lived they were... You were blessed for each day you got to look into her eyes!!!
Lost mine back in June 2009. After watching the video, the whole song makes sense. Was thinking it was of a failed Marriage, but man once I saw the video, I was struck in the heart by the reality I miss my daddy. I maybe 51yo, but I want to cry like a baby. I couldnt cry when he passed, because I was happy that his pain was gone. But, right now I am missing him and wishing he could see me and talk with me. James, I hope you can squeeze as many quality minutes out of life with him before he has to leave. God Bless!
This song really hits home for me. I lost my mom back in 2006 at only 12 years old. Then in 2015 I lost the man who was like a father to me a week before my birthday. I was gonna have my first beer with him when I turned 21. Still hurts to this day. Almost 27 now, It never gets any easier
Life can throw up a surprise then and now again! What is this heavenly music that I'm hearing? The chorus will spin around your head for hours on end and I'll gamble on whoever created this masterpiece will tell us, it was written in minutes ♥️
I learned this song a couple years ago. I saw pop evil here in Montana at Rocking the Rivers, didn't really know them , but this song resonates that feeling of loss. To the 2 people who commented before me, my heart goes out to both of you. My sincere condolences for your loss. God bless.
I can relate to this way too much. My dad passed on the 20th of june 2013 and i will never stop being haunted by the memory of what I saw that day.. The tattoo on my leg holds the memories of my childhood with my dad..
