This song speaks to me. My husband died 8 years ago, when I heard this song, "I am terrified of waking up alone." "in my mind, in my mind I can breathe it back to life". It makes me cry....because I could feel the depth of my loss. I am know finding my way on a new path, but when I hear this song, it still makes me cry...
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I wish you the best and hope that music still impacts your life in a positive way. Much love to you and I hope to meet you down the road. Best, Ryan
This is such a haunting, lovely, perfect song. It just speaks to me on the soul level. I put it up there with "Fade Into You" by Mazzy Star. Just beautiful.
this song hit me at a time when my wife and I were at our rock bottom...a relationship almost done...and listening now brings it right back. It's heavy. Grateful we're still together and better for it.
I want to type a profound message, I really do. But nothing I could possibly come up with will properly express how I feel about this song. So for now I'll just say thank you. Thank you for helping me in my journey. Your art has truly made a difference.
That makes 2 of us!! Im glad to hear I'm not the only one that this happened to lol,,..I heard this song some months ago in a Starbucks in downtown Seattle, I tried and tried to find out who it was and finally on January 6th,2021 I walked into a different Starbucks and it was playing, the song was almost over so I rushed over to the speaker in the corner and turned on my Shazam and had to stand on the trash to get it to work, it gave people a good laugh but it had to be done lol.. I've never been so drawn to a group and all their music like I have with River Whyless, not trying to sound all crazy but their music has guided me through alot recently , I cant stop listening to their music, Now I'm just trying to figure out why!
no one understands how much i love this song. i met the love of my life after hearing this song and every time i hear it i think of him. of us. this song means the world to me
I can’t get this song out of my head. There’s something so visual with vocals that are so haunting and a simple bass melody that is totally intoxicating
Lyrics ❤ Long-time lover, have you gone? I left you walking through the parking lot of a Motel 6 As I turned our van back east Somewhere on the road we lost our way In my mind, in my mind I can save us all I can breathe it all back to life In my mind and in my mind, I've spent my whole life movin' I've spent my whole life on a road From a dream, I'm wakin' up And for the first time, I'm terrified of wakin' up alone Within the shade of my delusion I drive into the night I drive into a lie that I deemed worth living all my life And in my hands, a child is dying In my mind, in my mind I can save the boy I can breathe it all back to life In my mind and in my mind I've spent my whole life movin' I've spent my whole life on a road From a dream, I'm wakin' up And for the first time, I'm terrified of wakin' up alone I'm terrified of wakin' up alone
My bf and I heard this song on a "Mountains Playlist" on a recent road trip. This was one of my favorite songs on it! Idk why exactly but it makes me cry. Maybe it's bc the last decade of my life is really catching up to me these days. I've made peace with childhood stuff. I got divorced a few years ago. I love the person I'm with now and want it to work out. I'm trying to navigate a cancer/health scare rn...Idk. Life just never stops coming. This song makes me want to hold on to the good stuff for as long as I can.
My brother would be really touched by this. I think it’s the best song he’s written. I’ve been listening to it for years & it still strikes me & for all the reasons you describe, it makes you flash through moments in your life, while turning to face the road ahead.
this song reminds me of a best friend that I had for 4 yrs, yet we split up slowly bcs our different path. In my mind I thought I still can save our relationship, but the more I tried to fix it, the worst it became for us. as a 17 yrs old that was the longest friendship I've had.
Please give me some advice. 3 years with the love of my life. All I want to do is speak to her & fix it. She wanted space. 4 months I’ve been miserable
@@seabassgoog3608 She's not tour anymore my Friend, shes just to coward to tell you. Get really good at something and become a version of yourself that you're proud of.
@@seabassgoog3608how's it going right now? I hope u guys can work it out again. if she needs some space you can give her some space at first, try to communicate slowly and let it flow. don't get overwhelmed, just let it by naturally and clearly. I hope things will eventually get better for you
Younger people today are all consumed with curr. garbage music.....means little, violence through out. Really sad to have that burned into brain when they're older. oof
My kids' mother, my love, laying in the bedroom, ignoring me for the past couple of months, while I'm listening to this, and kinda ready to let her go if she wants to 😢
This is one of the songs that plays in my head when something relevant to the lyrics happens in my life. I found it on my Spotify suggested songs years ago. This is the first time I've looked for the music video, and it's perfectly fitting.
This is a gem of a song and I'm lucky to have heard it. I'm happy I'm the only one who knows this song, so that I can share it with someone special to me.
