I listened to this while driving down a costal road during a storm. With the crashing waves and bending trees.
It was the most alive I've ever felt.

[arnoldanimado]

When I'm walking in the street I always think that I'm the only person in the whole city who is listening this type of music.

[aegeanorange]

People commenting here are, probably, the kindest ones. It's the music. These people; we, we would never hurt each other. I love you guys!

[josejairoroblesgomez]

Who needs lyrics when you can express your feelings in this way? Magnificent.

Don’t Stay Here -

Memories pass, familiar faces fade into darkness. Separated by your actions, you find yourself alone. Uncontrollable desires trap you. Emotions run through your head; thoughts shrouded by fear and anxiety. Fear has kept you away, it has stopped you from enjoying things you desire. As suppressed feelings of yourself surface you find yourself wishing for help. Several paths lay in your way, each deciding an alternative fate. Unable to choose, you freeze.

The inability to move halts all progression forward. Days pass by, each progressively becoming more agonizing than the last. A will to fight has weakened, and the defense you once had has been brought down by the constant reminders of your failure. Mirrors surround you like an attacking army. As you are forced to stare into your own desolate and lifeless eyes your focus diminishes. A slight breath, stained with the stench of pain and anguish from the inside crawls from your lips.

Your happiness has become a distant sentiment; a mere memory of what once was. You look at childhood photos and recollect on who you used to be. That bright exuberant smile portrayed in one family portray brings forth a realization of regret. Hate lurks beneath the words you speak. Anger arises in the gestures you create. A sudden dislike for things you once enjoyed becomes apparent. A fondness you once believed to be unbreakable has now been shattered by the person you've created.

You regard yourself as worthless, and often question your own decisions. Clarity is wished for. Simple tasks become
confusing, and as your mind wanders into previous untamed tangents, the darkness soon follows. As the darkness grows more somber, your personality becomes engulfed into the depression. You plead to take hold of the happiness you once had, but it’s too late. You neglect those who love you most, and your relationships weaken. The thoughtless words you jab at them break the bonds piece by piece. Held together by a fragile string, those final selfish acts of carelessness are enough to pull it apart.

Divided you stand, lonely you exist. Sober days pass, and alcoholic pleasures take their place. You being to question the meaning of your existence. Why were you put here? To slowly destroy yourself in some sort of pathetic excuse to cope with the depression you have spiraled into? You've had enough; you’re exhausted and out of breath.

You lie lifeless on the floor of a house you haven’t left in days. The cold rain splashes against the thin glass. It’s the only sound you can hear-tap, tap, tap. The peacefulness drives you insane. Hours pass before you manage to bring forth the strength to pick yourself off the ground. You gaze outside and through the fog you notice a gentle glisten of light. A light so pure in its existence you cannot help but continue to stare into the void.

As the fog fades the brightness begins to penetrate its way inside your room. A room seldom reflected by light soon begins to reveal something. On the floor lies a fragment of a shattered mirror. A beam of light slithers across its smooth surface illuminating the room further. Walking slowly toward the mirror you place it in your palm. As your eyes connect with their own reflection through a jagged shard, you smile. A smile as pure as the light outside guides you to finally leave that room and experience life.


Don't stay here.

[spunj]

Okay I just 'discovered' this song, and I think I'm in love.

[dave]

Turn away, run
Do not stay here

Your whispers hit me,
unseen, a dark sun

Darkness now I do not fear
The cool night air bites me, shears

I embrace willingly, the numb
But my mind is rampant, soul none

Run, do not stay here

The chimes they betray us
Hold fast, come the gust

I am your past, I know
Your future, there, another

Go
Run, you must
Do not stay here...

The winds shatter the water glass
Drops fall down, but it rains not

The voice I yearn for threads my conscious
Sewing together a fate not obvious

Is it not enough to say we've tried?
How much will it cost to give more and survive?

The light of your shadow pierces my steady gaze
Through the smoke, I cough, a deep haze

Run, do not stay here

Run, your presence incites in me fear

Fear of senescence,
Any other punishment is of a lesser sentence

Run, do not stay here...

I loved you, and perhaps I continue to

But that has passed, or I think it so...

Run...

Don't.


Stay here.

i love this side of youtube. the vibes are beautiful

[leviedwards]

This song is one of the many songs you will find on Youtube that'll just astonish you. Instrumental songs like this and other indie bands will make you appreciate music more than you'll ever believe. Today's radios are just stuffed with commercial artist and their songs, which aren't even written by them, and you think "What happened to today's culture?" Those are empty, dead songs, which is either about love or drugs. But bands like Soley, Explosions in the Sky, Frames, Films, and other indie bands will take you where you thought you could never go. It excites your body and you can't help but feel the adrenaline rush through your veins. These songs have endless perceptions and meanings, and it'll help you escape the real world and take you to your deep, intense mind. So, the next time the radio comes on and you hear some crappy song that doesn't reach you, take 10 minutes of your time and explore the unknown, beautiful side of music.

[lunaperez]

(Thanks for the support!! It's insane how many people liked my words.)

It's like you're falling down but you can't stop falling.

Everything's dark and everything is cold, you close your eyes so you don't feel scared.

Everything is getting around you, memories in form of photographs and the feel of something will happen: Someone will save you? Or you will save someone? Then you open your eyes and you can see clear, you are in a forest now. The forest is so beautiful and there's so many birds, the birds sing and it's when you know you found your place, a place where everything's beautiful and nothing will hurt you.

*Sorry for my english

[supernova_g]

I remember when I discovered this in 2013 when I was at university... Man time flies, I was happy, many things have happened, I don't know how I got here...

[davidchristiandy]

So, I closed my eyes and tried to write how I picture this song. Please forgive me for my bad english :)

You are falling deep, in a dark bottomless pit. It is already 2 miles down, and you are no longer panicking. And then, you look up. You see a small, bright, white light; when you put your hands up, you can still vividly feel the warmth of sun. You know that there is no way back up; you only have what's left. And then you realize you've been doing it all wrong; that you always see the world as what's missing, instead of what's already there. Constantly struggling to find what is invisible, only to feel remorse that the things you once had are now gone, and you never really cherish, appreciate, or be thankful for it. Then, you closed your eyes. You try to appreciate what's left. The gently rushing wind from below, the silence, the peace, and solitude. Abundance diminishes appreciation; it is only from darkness that we can truly cherish the light. You try appreciate time, for how little you have left; for every seconds of consciousness you have. And then, you smiled a little bit.

[debankasamanta]

It's just astounding how we don't know each other, yet here we are...

[BRUBOLCOR]

this is the kind of music that you closed your eyes and you don't need anything more to feel alive.

[elinag]

This might sound hipster af but some music, I like to keep to myself. I wouldn't show this to my friends, not just because I don't have any, but also because it feels so personal. and I know that's ridiculous, because it's not MY song, and it's out there for everybody, and many people feel like it's personal for them. so it's not like I'm special. I'm rather insignificant. but I would feel very weirded out if someone in the same room felt the same way as me when they listen to this. I'm comfortable not relating to others.

[magmel]

Магия музыки, каждый раз пробирает до мурашек.

[Rhno]

This was a good song to slowly eat a Snickers bar to. Thanks.

[MiguelSanchez-rvke]

I was 15 years old the first time I heard this song, now I'm 23 and it still gives me an inexplicable feeling of satisfaction especially after work :')

[prashantg]

Suddenly you land up at a composition which takes you places when you're actually just lying on the couch! That's why I love music.

[soprasy]

I had a mix in the background. And God damn I've never "experienced" anything that could describe a such a specific feeling so well like this song does. When I looked at the title after the first minute and read don't stay here I was like "that's it, that's the emotion I was feeling" and it was communicated so clearly in the purest form imaginable. Without words.

This is the quintessential song.
