The Amity Affliction "Forever" Official Music Video 

Joel Birch says "Forever is a song about the dueling internal narrative while in the depths of a depressive episode. On the one hand, love and support, on the other hand, thoughts of suicide, while also grappling with the follow on effect it would have. I made a promise to myself to make it to my son’s eighteenth birthday when he was three, and I intend to keep it. Hopefully, by then I will have figured out how to properly cope with what is likely a lifelong battle with Bipolar II.”

The amity affliction saving lives since 2004

2014: Just Hold Me In Your Heart.. 2016: I Have To Hold You In My Heart.. 2020: WIll You Hold Me In Your Heart..

I love how their new record is heavier than Misery and has a lot of similarities to Let The Ocean Take Me and Chasing Ghosts. Absolute masterpiece!

"I’m not afraid to die Not afraid of where I’ll go I’m afraid of how it ends And what it’ll do to you" BRUH I WAS NOT READY TO BE PUNCHED IN THE FACE WITH RELATABLE

"I'm not afraid to die but I'm afraid to leave you here" hits differently

The dopest part about all this is realizing that after feeling alone mentally for so long, the comment section of an amity video proves the opposite! Cheers to getting better!

This song slaps harder than something that slaps really hard.

No other band mixes screaming and melodic singing in such a perfect way like the Amity Affliction does Love it

I'm glad that the amity I grew up on is back. I remember being a sophomore in high school and hearing let the ocean take me for the first time and just melting in to the forest. I was so enthralled by how melodic the music was, yet so brilliantly heavy. Just appreciate that this sound is back

When angels sing....."OOOOOOOOOOO....OOOOOOO......OOOOOOOO"

I just want to say how crazy it is that you guys release this, today is the 12th anniversary of my dad‘s death and was having a very hard time and not sure how to feel. How ironic that this came out love the song!! Miss him forever!!

This band is one the reasons why I cope with my depression better... their lyrics and musicianship strike a chord in my heart

Every fuking song of this band is just magic

I hope they realize that they actually saved lives. at least one that im aware of.. mine. I’ve always wanted to die to pittsburgh and i let it play while i was preparing.. and just then i realized that i want to live just a little bit longer to listen to that song more i don’t like living, i still want to die, but if my life got better one day then its all because of you guys, i love you

your music saved my life when everything fell apart i lost my best friend to suicide and was about to end my own. your guy's music has continued to get me through all the tough times keep up what your doing you guys save lives.

The album is going to be so goddamn goood

Finding this band years ago remains one of the best thing's that's ever happened in my life. This song is 🔥 their music has carried me through some of the darkest time's of my life and i honestly believe saved it multiple time's.

I wanna hear ahren yell on a couple of tracks like he does during performances.

There aren’t a lot of bands that can combine clean vocals with melodic metal like these guys. Truly a treasure.

Damn ahren stays coming in with that amazing voice long live amity

They never disappoint... this great band should be bigger... they're underrated.

Perfect blend of LTOTM and Misery. TAA forever.

Coming back to this track, remembering how it felt to me a year ago. I was deeply depressed, one of my lowest points. This album dropped and pulled me up, not out of it but to a conscious stability. The lyrics rang in my head, "I'm not afraid to die..... I'm afraid of how it ends, and what it'll do to you." Reminded me that I have people that I need, and who need me. People who are closest to my heart, going through a different flavor of the same shit I was. I couldn't put them through it, this track slammed that much needed perspective into my face unapologetically. Thank you guys, forever.

Amity will always be in my heart.

Who else clicked "like" before the video was even 5 seconds in? 😂 ✋

Wow that beginning... "im not afraid to die" Damn not even a second and already chills Edit: i love the chorus, just like "all my friends are dead" it gives an amazing feeling to me

I love this song so much, in my opinion it's the best song on album, we all need that light in the dark and for all of us that's THE AMITY AFFLICTION!!!!

Can’t wait for the album tomorrow boys 🤟🏽🤟🏽

"Will you hold me in your heart Be the light when it gets dark" wish I could relate this lyrics to someone, but I guess it's all about me, fighting alone, and be my own candle in the darkest times. Still great song though🤘🏻

“but the rain, yeah the rain it lasts forever forever” DOES THAT SOUND FAMILIAR TO ANOTHER SONG OR AM I TRIPPING

This world is coming to an end. Let your loved ones know your feelings before it's too late.

when he says "lasts forever, forever" at 0:30 sounds a lot like how Bryan Adams sings it in Summer of 69

“I’m not afraid to die, not afraid of where I’ll go. I’m afraid of how it ends & what it’ll do to you.” ...that hits hard. 🤘🏽🔥🔥🔥

"Forever" I'm not afraid to die Not afraid of where I'll go I'm afraid of how it ends And what it'll do to you There's a knot inside my gut 'Cause I'm not trying to give up But the rain, yeah the rain it lasts forever Forever in my heart Ooh, we can't live forever Ooh, but our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart? Be the light when it gets dark Ooh, we can't live forever (Can't live forever) So if it ends the way I fear See you on the other side my dear I'm not afraid to die But I'm afraid to leave you here In the dark Ooh, we can't live forever Ooh, but our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart? Be the light when it gets dark Ooh, we can't live forever (Can't live forever) There's a knot inside my gut 'Cause I'm not trying to give up But the rain, yeah the rain it lasts forever Forever in my heart Ooh, we can't live forever Ooh, but our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart? Be the light when it gets dark Ooh, we can't live forever (Can't live forever) Ooh, but our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart? Be the light when it gets dark Ooh, we can't live forever (Can't live forever) We can't live forever

I'm not crying... I just have dust in my eyes...

This is the most talented band ive ever seen. They are unique talent

This song is fucking awesome, I’m loving everything off the new album so far, 100% this album will be your best🖤🖤

My wife passed away on the 24th of February and this album is keeping me sane, we got to see them together last year and I'm so thankful.

When the first scream is not the title of the song Jokes aside, amazing song, so many feels 💧

"So if it ends the way I fear, see you on the other side my dear." BIG FOOKIN OOF

The new album slaps so hard! So proud boys!! Aussie grown talent at its finest

A new's The Amity Affliction Song's start: 0:01 Me: Oh my God I love this song ♥

Holy shit this sounds like it was taken straight from Let the Ocean Take Me. It's incredible. Also, who the fuck disliked this???

Just 1 more day for this masterpiece to release. I will always appreciate the music Amity releases. I cant wait to receive my pre orders too! Thank you so much for years of amazing music and to help someone like myself get through some tough times when life decides to be a pain. Love you guys.

I love this band, their lyrics hit my soul a way no other songs have hit me...🥺👉🏻👈🏼🖤

"Im not afraid to die, But Im afraid to leave you here" I can definitely relate to this song

Nobody talking about Ahren’s mustache so I will DAAAAAANG THAT LOOK GOOD

Just listened to the whole album twice in as a whole it's different but it's great 👌

The camera angles in this video are aesthetic as fuck! My favourite song on the album, btw! 😍

Ahren's moustache is kinda growing on me

“So if it ends the way I fear, see you on the other side my dear.” Hits hard.

🖤 my heart 🖤 my favorite band, every song always touches my soul.

The “ooooOOOoooo’s” give me chills. 🖤

Ooh, we can't live forever Ooh, but our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart? Be the light when it gets dark Ooh, we can't live forever (Can't live forever) awwww I love you guys thanks for this beautiful melody 🖤✨🇨🇱

Ahren this is the sexiest youve been.. Long live that beautiful Moustache

Australian metalcore is amazing ❤️🤘

This song slapped me harder then my wife, and I dont have a wife

Fastest I've ever clicked on a notification, my preorder bundle is out for delivery, this is beautiful

Staring down a diagnosis of stage 4 cancer, this song hits different. I've never quite connected with this song before now, but this is immensely comforting to me right now.

This song is so haunting. It forever replays in my mind.

I've been listening to TAA for almost 10 years now and I never had the chance to pick a favourite song because every song they drop is just taking my breath away, this time is no different. Thanks for making my life worth living, your music helped me through a lot of hard times. ❤️

Joel saved my life.

Who else has this on repeat since it’s not on Spotify yet?

My literal reaction to this video: Ooooooohh 😯

so, I found my funeral song hbu?

Forever Lyrics I’m not afraid to die Not afraid of where I’ll go I’m afraid of how it ends And what it’ll do to you There’s a knot inside my gut ‘Cause I’m not trying to give up But the rain, yeah the rain it lasts forever Forever in my heart We can’t live forever But our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart Be the light when it gets dark We can’t live forever So if it ends the way I fear See you on the other side my dear I am not afraid to die But I’m afraid to leave you here In the dark We can’t live forever But our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart Be the light when it gets dark We can’t live forever There’s a knot inside my gut ‘Cause I’m not trying to give up But the rain, yeah the rain it lasts forever Forever in my heart We can’t live forever But our love will never die Will you hold me in your heart Be the light when it gets dark We can’t live forever

"I'm not afraid to die but I'm afraid to leave you here" This hits home... I think about suicide more than I'd like to admit, but don't do it because it would kill my mom and sisters. But life as been so fucking hard to me lately that I don't know how much more I can take before I give in... I've done therapy, medication, none of it can erase or ease the pain I feel everyday from past traumas and they kill me everyday little by little... fuck depression man...

all the aussies that have elwyl already i wish i were in your shoes today

Such a shame they never play this song live…. Still a mesmerizing song. 🖤

Thank you so much for this song TAA & Ahren's moustache 🔥

That Mustache is majestic

It doesn’t matter what I’m doing, when a RU-vid notification from The Amity Affliction pops up, time stops, I watch it and then I go back to what I was doing! The song is absolutely fantastic! 🤩

"If it ends the way I fear then I'll see you on the other side my dear" Damn man the thoughts...

I read and listen to this and this was just the song I needed to hear. This band has been my mental health band. They always seem to never shock me of how relatable they make their music. Birthday is on Sunday and this is by far the best birthday present coming with the album coming out tomorrow.

Thank you for saving my life. thank you :)

I love every single song in this album. But this has to be my all time favorite song!

I FUCKING LOVE YOUR MOUSTACHE STRING

I love this song already! It was the first song Spotify shuffled when I checked out your album. Love the new album and you guys continue to kill it every time. Ily guys! 🤘💜

Although I expected heavier sound, I still like it

Hands down my favourite band, who agrees ???🤔🤔😏🤗

I am here to tell you all that there is hope... We can all be free from the hopeless way that we are living. We can all be free, we can all be renewed and live a different life where we have hope knowing that there is somebody out there who cares for us, who is waiting for us to seek him, he is waiting with his arms wide open to set us free! His name is Jesus Christ! I used to be depressed all the time living a very dark life, hopeless, feeling like I didn’t want to be here any longer. I didn’t have a reason to live but I always knew deep inside of me that there was a purpose in life and when I came to God, I prayed one night looking up to the sky and said “God I don’t want to be like this anymore I want to change please help me” that was my prayer.. God heard me because he knew I was broken hearted... mind you, I didn’t believe in God prior to that prayer but he was my last hope. There was nobody around that could help me and I was just feeling weighed down everyday more and more until I came to God.... see we live in a fallen creation because of sin, because of the wicked ways some evil people live but that’s not how God had intended it for us to be... when we are depressed, have anxiety, stress, and living hopeless, we are actually being tormented by demons that are around the air and yes there is a spiritual world among us which we cannot see but satan will try to keep you in chains by having all these demons torment you but we have somebody who can set us feee from all that... We don’t have to live this way anymore... Come to God and see that he is good!! What do we have to lose??.... We are all sinners and I mean everybody.. The Bible says that the wages of sin is DEATH!!! God is giving you a gist today, a gift of salvation... God will not force you to come to him because he gave us free will.. we have to make the decision to take his gift of salvation and eternal life with him in heaven... zCome to God, repent from your sins, ask God to forgive your sins, that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. It says in the Bible that when we come to Christ we are new creatures we are made new 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here! I really hope you guys read all trough this all I am doing is sharing the good news that one day was shared to me and by it I am now set free from my former life now my life has meaning and I have hope, I have joy that nobody can take away because it comes from God... God bless every one of you! 1 COR 15:3 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance[a]: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,

OMG 😱 😱😱

“So if it ends the way I fear, see you on the other side my dear” 💔

This song is beautiful omg - I'm actually crying. I love this band so much 💜

Stop saying good things about amity I can’t like them all

The range this band has is amazing. They have a song for every emotion I think I've ever felt. Keep it up guys 👍 I'll see you in Pittsburgh 🤘🔥

Definitely getting a chasing ghosts album kinda feel from this song

low key wish they could’ve brought the choir back for the end of the song and ended the album with it.

"Forever ... In my HEART" OMG the feeling

That chorus is so catchy, I was even singing along without even knowing the song 🤯

I’m not afraid to die

This song is so relevant right now.
