"For over 10 years I pushed my feelings aside.
I thought I was strong... but in reality I just kept digging that hole deeper and deeper.
One day during the writing process of No Halos In Hell I was sitting by the piano, and while I was singing some gibberish to make up a vocal line for one of the songs, I felt something. And when I went back to listen to what I had just recorded, I realized that this was more than just gibberish to me.

I guess it was my own mind that started to process things.

My brother, Fredrik, was taken away from me and my family way too early. Just as so many other human beings who decide every year to leave this earth on their own initiative.

When we discussed the video, I really didn't "just" wanna do another normal lyric video. My Fiancee came up with the brilliant idea to involve the fans. We contacted our fanbase through our social media platforms, and the response was truly beyond overwhelming. We got more participants that we could fit in! The subject was close to our fans hearts - and I am eternally grateful for their participation!

My brother was strong, funny, and full of life and loved to work on his boat.

This song is for people like my brother.

I want them to hear this song before it's too late. We only have one life! And even if you sometimes feel as though life isn't worth fighting for, trust me, it is! When I look at my kids I can't stop thinking about what a fantastic uncle he would have been, and it hurts me that he was never able to meet them. I know how much they would have loved him.
My parents lost a son. And me and my sister lost a brother.

He is forever missed and loved as we keep fighting our battle from within."

~ JAKE E.

This song is my life. As a 54 year old battered, abused and now disabled from all my injuries, all I can think of and dream of is the relief that death will bring. I pray for death every time I close my eyes but it never comes. I watch this video at least 5 times a week and it always brings me to tears. But it always gives me one reason to look forward to tomorrow. So I can read the signs that tell me that I'm loved and I'm needed in this world. Because God knows that I don't hear that anywhere else in my life.

Thank you guys, for writing this song.

It really hits home.

Thank you Euge for your videos that you make teaching theory and sharing your knowledge. My hands and body are far too battered to enjoy playing guitar anymore, but watching you shows me a kind man giving back and being generous to those fellow humans who might appreciate his labour.

Thank

This song hit me home so much that I had to personally message some of the Cyhra guys to thank them. There is zero possibility of me to listen to this without crying. As a bipolar person myself, these thoughts visit me on a regular basis, and I owe to songs like these the fact that I'm still breathing. Thanks, guys. I'm trying my best here, so maybe I can see you live someday.

[robinO]

I love this song but cant listen to it without crying. God bless you all!!

2019 is a great year for metal and rock so many real songs about real problems looking forward to the album

[b.entranceperium]

"There is good in the world". People need to remember this now more than ever in 2020.

[Tompeskompe]

Such a great song, really makes you think. Tears were ready to come out, good job Cyhra!

[cyanidesyn]

Recently had a friend commit suicide and I've been on a very downward spiral myself. It warms my heart that so many metal/hard Rock bands are releasing songs about depression and suicide at the moment it really makes you realise it's not just you

[sfstudio]

i participated without knowing the song. it is an incredible outcome. Kudos to Cyhra and everyone who participated in this video

[AssamCoffeeChannel]

Anyone from 🇮🇳
This song needs to be heard by Billions! ❤️
I dedicate this to my mother who battled and overcame schizophrenia and is out of medication! 🙏

[sapphirefeirlywilkinson]

Beautiful melodic song, displaying important issues related with real life, poetry of brokenness, deeply lovely showing the true '' yes there is hope '' thank you.

[ArcKing]

Love hearing Jake’s voice give voice to something legit (no pun intended). One of the last songs he did with Amaranthe expressed fears of being a parent as his child was just born. So glad he’s continuing doing music for real emotions. One more song that I hope makes a difference somewhere

[andyeve]

Wow !!! That was incredible and very very moving video. I have battled for years with my own mental health and music has always been a massive part of my fight to be strong again. Thank you for this. The video moved me to tears. Those fans videos where perfect.

[hermes.trismegistus]

Absolute masterpiece!
The video was so moving, well done to all those involved!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[viciousblissvideos]

Simply outstanding. I don’t like a lot of modern stuff but this tops most of the 90’s classics from Nuclear Blast and Century Media.

[tkkotbo.]

Not even a minute in and as I look at all these different faces from different walks of life, i immediately started to cry. I never fought this battle myself, but those I come to meet that do never fight it alone as long as I'm in their life. Idk why it hurts me so much to know people who I feel are worth so much more than they have been lead to believe want to take their last breath, but it really does. I wish I could befriend all that do because not enough people are willing to fight for them to live, even if it's as simple as listening to their problems until they find a solution and not letting up until they do. I would never give up on your pain because somehow it becomes my own. Whoever is fighting with this now, I don't need to know you to say I love you. Your existence here is nothing short of magical because you have a mind that is as unique as a fingerprint. If you feel like you don't matter or that you're alone, it's only because you outshine those around you that only made you feel alone. But to feel alone is to know you're irreplaceable. To not relate to the hate you had to endure to feel this way is to standout from a world overrun by sheeple who are only a dime a dozen. Remember that.

This video made me cry, for the first time in long period of time. Rock and metal community is the best in whole world. Love and support from Sarajevo, Bosnia.

[calebstahl]

Holy shit what a song. That gave me chills

[joerymer]

Thank you for doing this, these people…these lost and broken people have so much to offer the world, the salvation of the world is in their pain if we could but understand their message.These beautiful lost souls are not sick, broken misfits to fear but little empathetic gods that could teach us all what this existence really means.❤

[patrickwesker]

Thank you for those hopeful words. Some people in this world don't show it, but they still need that kind of support.

[Silver.Leaves]

This got me, at the beginning I thought this was gonna be some average awareness message. But this got me. Well done, friends.
