The drugs begin to peak A smile of joy arrives in me But sedation changes to panic and nausea And breath starts to shorten And heartbeats pound softer You won't try to save me You just want to hurt me And leave me desperate You taught my heart A sense I never knew I had I can't forget The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine You won't leave me alone Chisel my heart out of stone I give in everytime You taught my heart A sense I never knew I had I can't forget The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine I bet you laugh At the thought of me thinking for myself I bet you believe That I'm better off with you then someone else Your face arrives again A hope I had becomes surreal But under your covers more torture then pleasure And just past your lips there's more anger then laughter Not now or forever will I ever change you I know that to go on I'll break you, my habit You taught my heart A sense I never knew I had I can't forget The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine I will save myself
This is one of a few songs that instantly transports me back to a moment in my life. I remember being 16 in 2006 at my first girlfriends house, taking MySpace pics listening to this album. I'm 33 now... Jesus.
brother i am a 22 year old dude from Russia and i still remember clear as day listening to this on repeat when i was like 10 years old, on vacation with family in Italy and deluding myself into thinking that i'm in love with a neighbor girl, just because of this song
started listening to silverstien at 13. my uncle bought me their first cd. this year 2023 my wife took me to finally see silverstein live and i got to hear this song finally. I will never forget that concert.
The drugs begin to peak A smile of joy arrives in me But sedation changes to panic and nausea And breath starts to shorten And heartbeats pound softer You won't try to save me! You just want to hurt me and leave me desperate! You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had. I can forget, the times that I was Lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine! You won't leave me alone! Chisel my heart out of stone, I give in every time. You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had I can forget, the times that I was Lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine! I bet you laugh, at the thought of me thinking for myself (myself). I bet you believe, that I'm better off with you than someone else. Your face arrives again, all hope I had becomes surreal. But under your covers more torture than pleasure And just past your lips there's more anger than laughter Not now or forever will I ever change you I know that to go on, I'll break you, my habit! You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had. I can forget, the times that I was Lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroine! I will save myself!
Either you've never listened to this music and just started getting into it or you live more underground than the elitist users on Sputnik reviews... Like saying "why haven't I heard of avenged sevenfold?" :/ Silverstein and a skylit drive were the frontline of the mid 2000's post hardcore wave!
@@ellis6424 why is someone that is sensitive and actually has feelings a bad thing emo or not and not all emos are hypesensitive that's usually rich bratty posers cause they think their lives are hard to them I say try being on the other side of the tracks and they would see that life is something to be sad about. Some of us actually have gone through a lot and have a reason to hate life and the people in it. Your not emo just because you put dark tight clothing on and dye your hair black its a lifestyle and personality that usually comes from trauma and getting a real spoonful of life you know real reasons to be sad not some poser who is sad and whinning cause his parents took away his cell phone. Nor is it funny to make fun of people cause they are sensitive., different, or dress the way they feel comfortable whether you like it or not. On the other hand I am a bit recluse so I am not affected as much by the quarantine. The comment isn't an attack on you it's just for those who interpret that you are making fun of emos cause they tend to be more sensitive and in touch with themselves and how the world really works to me this isn't a flaw.
I wish more music like this is still made this well and I wish there was a whole genre like this with new music at-least ever week. I’m only 15, and I honestly think I was born in the wrong generation. Silverstein and Crossfade are two very underrated rock bands and if they were a little bit more well known, they could have easily broken charts. There music isn’t just music, it’s a well told story that has meaning to everyone at some point. I look up to this band and a lot of people at my school think it’s just “screaming metal”. But if you actually take time and listen to the talent and lyrics, you’ll be in awe. Silverstein is the previous generations xxxtentacion. And anyone who still promotes their music and listen almost daily. I salute you, rock on 🤘🏼
MCR,Silverstein,Hawthorne Heights,Taking Back Sunday,Paramore,Panic at the disco,Falloutboy,Three Days Grace,Sunny Day Real Estate,AFI,From First To Last and All Time Low they either have emo songs emo albums or are just plain emo
I saw them live like 5 times. Including the 15 year anniversary tour of When Broken is Easily Fixed. There was a snowstorm getting into Worcester, MA so I missed Hawthorne Heights but I could hear them through the doors playing Ohio Is For Lovers.
I hate people who claim them selves as Emo. Who cares. Just enjoy the music. I am about as normal as it gets, no one would ping me as listening to this type of music. But I just love it!
This song isn't even emo, it's melodic post-hardcore. Go listen to Cap'n Jazz or Sunny Day Real Estate; that's what emo really sounds like. Calling this song "emo" is actually degrading to both genres.
I can't stand when people worry about what specific type of music it is. Just listen to the damn song and enjoy it! Who cares if it's post metal core or whatever bullshit you want to call it? A song is a song.
@@carthrizroda432 same here man! hahaha Time goes by so damn fast. Funny thing is I still remember the lyrics of these songs like if no time has passed
This song may not only be about drug addiction but also about a very toxic relationship. I listened to it every day in the course of escaping the clutches of an aggressive narcissist boyfriend, it totally reflects what he did to me and how I felt.
It's about both. I have been so consumed in addiction where I felt like my significant other was the cause of it and there was no escaping from the void of not having either of them .... the drugs and the love can go hand in hand sometimes. In the end you have to save yourself.
2020 post. It's crazy that anyone viewing this would probably have been a friend in high school had we known each other. I'm sure, because you're here! And we like the same things
Back in high school, I knew this song but didn’t know who was playing. One day, I went to Avril Lavigne’s concert in Japan and Silverstein started playin this song before her and I was like omg I know this song fuck yea. After the concert, they were standing outside and I handed them my science homework for autographs then they laughed. Good memories
@@moumoumeow Well that makes sense then lmao I think Silverstien and automatically assume emo american kids I guess lol Plus i didnt know they were globally known 🧐
I heard this song when I was 13yrs old. BUT TILL NOW THIS SONG HIT ME SO MUCH, IM A DRUG ADDICT FOR 5YRS AND NOT A FULLY RECOVER. AND NOW JANUARY 1, 2021. STILL TRYING TO REHABILITATE MYSELF. PRAY ME GUYS!!!
Today, i'm 13 years old, 14/09/2023, my brother showed me there's still a reason to carry on, all these lyrics are relatable. Thank you brother, you're my heroine
2008. Experiencing my first break up. I was 13. Took a quiz on facebook (when they did quizzes) "what song represents your love life". Got this as my answer. No idea who or what it was i googled it, found this video and listened to it. 8 years later, 21 years old, and have all the albums, still love the band and this song always takes me back. This is what started it all.
I still get high to this song and album opium opened my ears and eyes very well and even inspired me to write music and drawl differently when I never took it. But when I first started choking them down with water almost every single day it became a problem that I started to realize slowly. This song and album also helped me when nothing was going great for me. It’s amazing how music can really help you and effect you in such a relative way. Music and art is a really important thing for everyone. It’s good to still see them around. They’ve been around for 18 years. That’s crazy 💚
This song will forever be one of my top favorites. It helped me get through one of the worst depressions of my life. In '09, I was a freshman in high school and met my first bf, who was a junior. I was head over heels for the guy, everything i had wanted. He was a singer in an emo/rock band and introduced me to Silverstein. It was one of the best things he ever did. It was how we connected on certain levels of emotion towards each other and towards the end of the relationship. He cheated on me and ghosted me for 2 weeks before he had the balls to tell me. We broke up. We tried again when he was in college, and i was in the middle of my junior year of high school. Called me one night to tell me he cheated on me again at a party. We tried one more time when i was a senior in high school. but there was too much damage done. He was my heroine. I had to break the habit and save myself. He'll never know how much he had hurt me. Sorry for the novel, but this song brings me back to a time when he did teach my heart many things i never knew i had. And i hope people can enjoy and connect with this music as much as i have.
@@eddyglocks I gotchu bro, I'll just do ones usually associated with Silverstein (and this song): Buried A Lie by Senses Fail The Truth About Heaven by Armor For Sleep Pretty Handsome Awkward by The Used I Don't Wanna Know by New Found Glory The Difference Between Medicine And Poison Is In The Dose by Circa Survive Until The Day I Die by Story Of The Year Holding On by Scary Kids Scaring Kids Ohio Is For Lovers by Hawthorne Heights You're Not Alone by Saosin Save Me by Unwritten Law (one of my personal favorite songs of all time) Pieces by Sum 41 The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows by Brand New The Sky! by The Junior Varsity The Fire, The Dark by As It Is So Contagious by Acceptance (another one of my personal favorites) Yep, that's all that comes to mind related to this song in particular. All of the songs listed are within the realm of punk rock/emo, and all of the bands are great. I tried to provide a good variety in bands, so if you like the song listed from them, I recommend digging into them further
My late friend introduced me to this Awesome band back in 2013..he passed away now by committing suicide in 2014...I always remembered him every time I listened to Silverstein's song RIP Biepha... 🙏🙏🙏
Silverstein is not just my favorite band still after some time, they’re also my Emo legends (yours too, haha)! After decades of their career, they’ve managed and still are managing to put out such amazing albums & songs. You don’t have to love every album & song by them, but you have to admit that everything by them is so fucking amazing. You have to have some variety in albums & songs, otherwise it would be so boring listening to any band. I really hope that vast majority of Silverstein’s fans agree with me on 100%. If you don’t, I pity you. Silverstein is one of the few bands, if not the only band, which has stayed so fresh after all these decades. And in my personal opinion they have even managed to become better than before. Not every band has at least stayed the same. Some bands don’t even exist anymore and still haven’t come back yet. This is why Silverstein is still my favorite band after some time now. Can’t wait to hear more new songs & albums by them, to keep going to their concerts, to see them during VIP times, to buy new albums by them, etc.
I remember being on a trip with my family in Virginia and seeing this album on the shelf in Walmart. I begged my parents to buy it for me. I remember listening to My Heroine for the first time and.. still listening 19 years later. 🫡🔥
The drugs begin to peak A smile of joy arrives in me But sedation changes to panic and nausea And breaths starts to shorten And heartbeats feel softer You won't try to save me! You just want to break me! You're leaving this way! You taunt my heart, a sense I never knew I had I can't forget The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroin! You won't leave me alone! Tears of my heart turn to stone! You're leaving this way! You taunt my heart, a sense I never knew I had I can't forget The times I was lost an depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroin! I bet you laugh, at the thought of me thinking for myself (myself) I bet you believe, that I'm better off with you than someone else Your face arrives again, all hope I had becomes so real But under your covers more torture than pleasure And just past your lips there's mores anger than laughter Not now or forever will I ever change you I know that to go on, I'll break you my habit! You taunt my heart, a sense I never knew I had I can't forget The times when I was lost and depressed from the awful truth How do you do it? You're my heroin! I will save myself!

This song is incredible! I'm 25 and just discovered this a couple of months ago. This song has already helped me through some intense times..I wish teenager me knew this song also haha...he could've used it :)
The best talaga yung middle school nakakamiss. Ito yung mga list nang kanta ko noon sa Portable Mini Player. Moment of truth Tonight Hands down Vindicated Stolen Screaming infidelities The quiet things that no one ever knows Miserable at best I swear this time I mean it Hero/Heroine Thunder The great escape Two is better than one Jenny Risque Curse of curves Dear maria, count me in Knives and Pens The mortician's daughter My heroin Until the day I die The kill Kings and Queen From Yesterday Your guardian angel Face down Damn regret Cat & Mouse Angel's Cry False pretense Atrophy Fall for you Your call Awake Broken Maybe Vulnerable Half alive I hate this song It's not over Like a knife Stranger Stay Close, Don't Go Take me with you The last song ever Thnks fr th mmrs Sugar we're goin down Welcome to the Black parade Famous last words Disenchanted I don't love you I'm not okay The ghost of you Teenagers Cancer I write sins, not tragedies Hey there delilah 1234 Tongue tied When I'm with you Again Seven Years Ohio is for lovers Decode Ignorance Misery business The middle Cute without E 21 Guns Wake me up when september ends MakeDamnSure Note to self Ang tanda ko na pero ito pa rin paborito ko. Sana magkaroon ng Comeback ang EMO. High School days is the best 🤘🔥
2024 and I'm still listening to it!!! I started listening to this when i was 13 yrs old now I'm 28 yrs old. Too many memories for this kind of music and to this song.
Wow I remember being so depressed over some girl and listening to this album. Now I'm with someone 50 times better than her, and happier than ever. It was for the better!
