Nostalgia hitting hard. Graduated high school in 2008. Younger years filled with B182, S41,TBS, Greenday, and the rest. Some memories never fade, baby.
yusuf zulfi thanks for the shoot out. I'm biopolar. I also have a head injury. I often feel alone and sad. I tried to be perfect. But I'm far from being perfect. I'm thinking about suicide. Thanks for listening.
Sonja Lanning whatever you do suicide is not the answer. I too am bipolar and I come from a family where nothing I do is ever good enough but I take life one day at a time. I wish you the best of luck. just keep pushing forward and remember when you hit rock bottom the only way to go is up from there.
Everyone is posting about how this song makes them more depressed. But as I look at the lyrics, and listen to them. It kind of actually makes me feel better. We all try to have these perfect lives, and fit in to the socially acceptable "norm" and it ends up crushing us "I tried to be perfect, it just wasnt worth it" is exactly right. We all try so hard to be perfect and lose sight of who we are and what makes us happy. To all of you listening to this in 2021, and to all of you who feel like youre alone, or are fighting depression, just know there is an army of people out there supporting you, and we love you for who you are, Thank you Sum 41 for showing us its okay to not be perfect.
needed this man. you put all my thoughts into words. If someone says something negative about something trivial like a fit or a sad tik tok/tweet about me or a friend in person, I'm poppin off on em. I'll let my heart out on a hater and walk away forgettin them. never be an easy target. look people in the eyes again
Lyrics I tried to be perfect But nothing was worth it I don't believe it makes me real I'd thought it'd be easy But no one believes me I meant all the things that I said If you believe it's in my soul I'd say all the words that I know Just to see if it would show That I'm trying to let you know That I'm better off on my own This place is so empty My thoughts are so tempting I don't know how it got so bad Sometimes it's so crazy that nothing can save me But it's the only thing that I have If you believe it's in my soul I'd say all the words that I know Just to see if it would show That I'm trying to let you know That I'm better off on my own I tried to be perfect It just wasn't worth it Nothing could ever be so wrong It's hard to believe me It never gets easy I guess I knew that all along If you believe it's in my soul I'd say all the words that I know Just to see if it would show That I'm trying to let you know That I'm better off on my own
@@mehsomeshit Hey there, hope you're doing alright. If you're not feeling too good please consider therapy or psychology. Sending a big hug from Mexico.
Look up why the song was made and you'll see that they mention that it was indeed an accident, it's in the first and second paragraph. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pieces_(Sum_41_song)
And so nostalgic, this song and the time it was released.. Back when I was just a really young kid (only 6 years old) and it just reminds me of my childhood, this band, and wanting to be a teenager so bad; now it's 2016 and I just wish I grew up in this time period.. Even though it's a sad song, it reminds me of the good times of my childhood. Depressing really, even the sound of the song just brings back memories
+Tom Dunnington after reading your comment and this song I wish I spent more time ad a kid instead of growing up and that depresses me and I don't have any good childhood memories. Sorry if this is really depressing or sad but I feel like RU-vid I can be who I am without being harassed in person about this.
It's the summer of 2005 again and we're sitting as teenagers on the stairs of the old stadium in my hometown. Some workers had brought a trailer to keep their instruments in. They had forgotten an old radio which was constantly playing in the background of our emotions. Suddenly this song comes on. All the teenage screems and kicks stopped and we all listened. When we made it to the middle of the song I felt the first autumn wind and it sent shivers down my spine. This was the first time that I knew 'this' wasn't gonna last forever. In an instant everything we had been through that summer hid in my back pocket as if it got cold. In January 2025 Sum 41 will perform their final show as a band and then they will break up. I will miss them like crazy. I hope i get the chance to see them live before that. I have many favorite bands but I don't think any of them made me feel more than Sum 41. I wish all of your favorite bands stay together!
A family friend that use to babysit me growing up put me on to a lot of bands. Sum 41 was one of them. I’ll never forget the day he brought out that All Killer No Filler CD. I’ve been a fan since. As for this song, I remember being 12 or 13 watching this on Fuse. Now that I’m 31, I can’t help but feel some type of way listening to this.
lol dude.. for me its all correctly the same as you , but for me 2010-2012 trainee 2012-2013 romantic. 2013-2015 reviving my own personal style of punk.
2016-2019: Pop Punk/Nu-Metal comeback/Emos start to rise again 2020-2022: Emo comeback MCR releases new song "Blond Gerard" 2023-2026: All the bands that came back are too old so now they only play live shows. 2027-Onward: Shit hits the fan and shit music comes back for another 6 years until new kids start the cycle once again.
Thank you for everything guys... Your music has been with me through the most difficult, sad and wonderful moments of my life. Despite the disbanding, Sum 41 will always stay in my heart as one of the GOATS!
Depression is a serious prob that your average person doesn't get. When it hits, it's like a knife to the heart that doesn't kill. A slow bleed that won't kill just hurts. A void that you can't fill but you feel. It gets better guys ❤️.
ZYGY98 it's true that it's 12 years old :) MAN !We are a new Polish band. We invite my dear friends to listen to our music. All together with the music video we did it ourselves...."Awake at Night - Salvation"on RU-vid :)
I hope that you guys are doing okay. If you are struggling, maybe professional help is the answer, or talking to a trusted friend about what you are going through. Remember that people care about you, even if it may not feel like it at times. Be safe, I wish you all the best.
"...going thru shit." - you mean shit like growing up in the wealthiest and most secure place on the planet since the beginning of history? Hahahahahahahajajajahahahehekslajeiedl£€÷&*@*+£¥¥!₩¥@&#... ;)
It hurts so much to hear that you guys are disbanding,but regardless,thank you for all your music Sum 41.It's been quite a journey since I first listened to all your albums
Wow i never noticed at the end of the video that the "f" on "life" fell off the truck so instead of it reading "the perfect life is waiting for you" it says "the perfect lie is waiting for you" damn.
I just realized something. This was one of the bands who gave me the strength to tough it out through all the hardest times of having someone be With Me. But then they single-handedly gave me the ability to end it with this song, and not go back all these years later. It's like when someone closes the casket for you because you just can't do it yourself for once. Leaving was my biggest regret in life looking back, but I made a decision, and I'm going to live with it like a real woman should. But still, I'm grateful for this song to keep me away and remember that I was destructive when I was in that walk of life, and that I'm better not to go back. The pain of the loss has healed now. The heartbreaking part that's still left now is the fact that . . . I never got the closure of knowing if things would have turned out differently if I would have done things differently, or if I could have never changed things no matter what I did right or wrong.
It's 2020. I'm here, still listening to this masterpiece. Of course nobody cares what year we're here at, so keep on listening to great songs. This is good song and i'll keep on listening to it.
ВЕЛИЧАЙШАЯ ПЕСНЯ. МУРАШКИ!!!! Спасибо огромное Sum 41, что я встретил вас в не лучший период моей жизни. Вы навсегда в моей памяти. Я буду вас помнить всю свою жизнь. Legend
I listen to this song as well as almost the ENTIRE Chuck record whenever I feel depressed and at some point or another I end up feeling better. Thanks for 27 years, Deryck, Tom, Cone, Dave, Frank, and Steve........
It's a game dumb fuck. If you are going to step your sorry ass on here and "TRY" to insult me at least get your facts straight. But news flash I * DRUM ROLL* DON'T CARE!
I've listened to sum 41 really often when I was a teen. Now I listen to metal bands such as Behemoth, Belphegor, Decapitated, Finntroll etc and of course a lot of classic metal bands but for some reason Sum 41 always got stuck in my head to this very day. It may sound weird but apart from blink, good charlotte etc. I could listen to sum 41 even if I was 40 years old...I'm 22 btw. So much nostalgia, Sum 41 still kick ass
Same shit man, I'm jamming Pantera, Slayer, Obscura, Ignominious Incarceration, etc. But I used to rock Sum 41, Green Day, Blink182, Linkin Park, etc, but to this day hell song still gets stuck in my head.
ALmost 30 years old. 1:25 a.m. i am listening to this and so warm memories come to my mind. Memories of being a teen in 00's. I would give a lot to live at least one summer day of that wonderful time. What a song, what a gifted singer Derrick is
i'm 19. listening this song whilst watching the ceiling thinking how i lost so many things in my life in such a short time. my mental health, death of my 2 loved friends, my house, my memories... like what i mean by my menthal health is not that ordinary shit that some kids say. i am talking about hallucinations, probably bipolar, memory loss and heavy depression. 1 year ago today i had none of these problems and when i look back at to the past i couldn't feel sad more knowing that those days never gonna come back. nothing lasts forever. know the value of the times you complained about your life. i hope you'll not end up like me who is living in the past and dead in the present time. i can't do shit anymore how hard i tried i failed every time. i wanted to type my feelings down. beatiful song. good night/day to who is reading this. if there is.
All the teens that listen to this music today are ao cool :) This was my music when I was your age and I felt the same strange feelings you feel today. You are not alone. Embrace it. It is a unique thing that will make u remeber this times
How I fucking feel everyday. I lost myself trying to make others happy losing my identity but how ever the pieces couldn't never come together until I fell rock bottom. Cold world like shit.... Better off my own !!!! Yep
@@Anarchypang Dear soul, TIME IS TICKING away, There is a choosing all of us (humans) must make: GOD OR MAMMON? LIFE OR DEATH? Deuteronomy 30:19chapter context similar meaning copy save I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Joshua 24:15chapter context similar meaning copy save And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
Depends on how your life's going I guess, I'm total opposite, used to love this and it meant little other than a good song, but nowadays, also sameish age, world shaken after a breakup involving my kids and constant aftershocks, shit makes me cry Still love it tho
Amen to this, I'm 29 now and over my life (at least for me), I've found out that I really am better off on my own. And I've been thriving ever since I realized that, I was always so worried about fitting in and pleasing everyone that I forgot to take care of myself. So in that sense for me this song represents freedom also.
“I tried to be perfect, but nothing was worth it.” So much meaning in one line that can be applied to so many individuals stories. No matter what you’re going through. Sum 41 has always provided music to help escape and relate. They’ve definitely helped me. One of my favorite bands.
@Jose Martin 2020 has had a lot of impact on the lives of many people, one of them is myself. now I'm trying my luck in entrepreneurship and freelancing after a while ago I experienced dismissal from current company. Thanks for your kindness, Jose.
One can't express how creative this video is, it used every single member of the band in a creative way and gave them everyone a representation that, imo, fits perfectly, i can't imagine any of the roles being swapped in the video, the drummer have that smirk look that made them perfect on the "perfect vacation" bit, the guitarist being the taller and the bulkier made it the best for the wedding bit and the bassist being the skinniest made them perfect for the dorky look of the family bit, while the vocalist being skinny and small in comparison to the rest made it just perfect for him to be the sad contrast of the song.
Happiness in life isn't determined by whether you being alone or the opposite. On that note, sometimes you just decided in life that you better off on your own. You'll realized that when your prefer people have no concern about you and in return you don't have to be concerned about them.
I used to think like this but it actually turns ou to be bullahit. The probability that you're the only person on earth that doesn't need people to be happy is super low. Get yourself out there man.
Fuck. This hurts. I started listening to this band when I was a kid, grew out of them somewhat when I was a teenager, then revisited them in my 20s. Songs like this one still hit all the right chords, especially this video...how many of us can relate to watching our friends and family members grow up and enjoy success while we feel left behind? Thanks for the great music and the great memories, guys. 💜
Yeah, i'ts a little sad to see the people that I grew up with get other interests and move on with their life, while also enjoying a lot of success and happiness while I'm here, stuck with my problems and difficulties all alone. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for them and I would never want them to give up their happiness just to be by my side; I'll always prefer them to be happy even if that means being the one left behind. It's just that, sometimes, it can get kinda lonely in here.
Il significato della canzone palesemente non è quello che gli attribuisci. Le persone in vetrina stanno a significare i modelli di vita proposti dalla società consumistica, vuoti e banali, a cui siamo obbligati a conformarci, pena l'emarginazione sociale.
I remember listening to this song on repeat on my MP3 player as my dad was taking me to the airport to go to my first duty station. I was 19 years old and fresh out of basic training and I knew that I eventually was going to be deployed to go fight in Iraq. I remember my father being so irritated that he yelled at me trying to get my attention. I know that he was trying to cherish those last minutes together but it hurt my feelings a little bit and soured the moment. He just wasn’t aware that he was looking at his son for the last time. That a different person would be permanently replacing the one that left.
All this time I felt lonely. Like I'm all alone in this world, and it felt terrible. Until I discovered this song. Now I understand. And now I realise that maybe I was never planed to have a nice life with friends and someone I love and who loves me. I'm just not compatible with it. I'm simply... Better off on my own.
You'll eventually find a person to share your life with, I guarantee that. Just as you'll find friends that you'll enjoy being around. It's all just a matter of time before it happens.
Alex Fridh Dude I'm a 20 year old who basically just goes to work, goes back home and spends the rest of his day all alone. And I'm severely scarred. I'm a mess. I don't think there's much ''hope'' for me regarding that subject. I wrote hope with '' '' because I don't really need it, I'm fine as I am.
My friend recommended these guys to me as she is a super big fan. This is the first song i have listened to and i can already tell im gonna love them, this song was absolutely beautiful.
Tbh he barely sounds like this in their other songs, and it's not because of autotune because the guy's proved his got them skills. Truly amazing work here. It's a pretty easy song to sing, but to sing it the way he does takes some talent.
in 2017 I still love this song. I used to feel so alone but every time I hear this song and read comments I realize there are tons of people who share my pain. It's like an entire family you never met.
@@colblop5253 it's sad, but true in same time.. Music evoluated and this bands, now they make music in another genre such as original pop, reggae, electronic, trap or dance... Majority keept this meaning of genre on hard-rock, nu metal. Pop punk and pop rock is going down. I hope that i don't say a lot of shits in my com. A personal opinion...
This song describes my whole life, struggling with anorexia and harmful addictions. At the moment, after all these years I've been fighting and consuming myself, trying to be perfect, I've found out that my weight does NOT define me, being just skin and bones isn't the real me and nothing could ever be so wrong than starving. The other fact is that alcohol and cigarettes are not a form of true happiness, they just give you that illusion, while destroying you slowly . You have no idea how glad and thankfull I am now, finding this song which is such a relief, like healing my wrecked soul and mind. :')
The essence of life is not being perfect, impressing people, or succeeding at everything.The essence of life is simply making mistakes and learning from them, surround yourself with people who love you when your being yourself and getting through the failures so that you can continue improving
