I cannot express how much gratitude I have for this band for coming into existence and their countless acts of genuine artistic ability that inspire me to be the best I can on a daily basis. So thank you Foxing and everyone who had something to do with them.

This song hit me in the feels before I even listened to the lyrics. Then, I read the lyrics and listened again. Well, to say I almost cried is an understatement. As a combat vet too this hits really close to home.

No one leaves the service intact. Thank you for this.

[dylan]

Trying to apply for jobs and i get this notification. Now I'm just sorta crying in strabucks.

[lucashill]

this had me in tears. i absolutely love this version of the song. the video is so beautiful

[colinnazario]

the actors in this music video are hella good

[EmuCosmo]

This makes me cry - it’s so beautiful and To anyone who found this and is watching - We love you.

I think the guy used to be the woman's boyfriend/husband and he died. Now he's watching his wife with her new partner on the monitors (symbolising him watching down from heaven). That's why he's happy when she's smiling and sad when she's getting abused. Just my interpretation

[Vaeland]

I keep coming back to this song year after year and it never fails to make me cry uncontrollably at the same moment, when he sees her through the screen as she’s looking back into the mirror. He’s so proud of her and I don’t even have the words for how hopeless it feels.

He’s so gone, so sufficiently tortured that his life there almost make his purgatory feel cozy. You know his life ended long before but for him it’s all the same. He’s relived those memories over and over, slowly replacing himself. The pride he has for her isn’t his. Hes twisted that guilt into real moments of relief and escape by crafting memories for them that he can be proud of when that’s really just an addiction now. He can’t be proud of her, and they will never have a chance to experience those mundane moments that he’s desperately clinging to now, feeling whatever emotion he can by deluding himself that it’s them.

It’s so tragic, but that moment also makes me so angry. She’s not growing through puberty, she never will. The look of pride is so palpable and so sickening from the man who killed her that it’s disgusting. How dare he use them to escape his guilt. Yet he’s not a villain either. We know his life ended then too. It’s that look, that’s when you know everything is just a self soothing cycle. Nobody is redeemed, no one will have a happy ending or be able to heal. The fact his delusions are so strong makes it even sadder. Guilt replaced that man a long time ago. I’ve hated myself for ways I’ve hurt people, and I can begin to understand that feeling, the way that guilt twists from something real felt for how you hurt them, into a self soothing self loathing. Selfishly feeling bad because of how you were tormented by what you did. It hurts man, it becomes the reason for who you are and the reason you hate yourself, trapped by tides we can’t be untouched by. I can’t imagine killing a child, or the guilt I would feel, but I can certainly understand why he had to kill himself off and become a body for the family. Consistently and easily one of the most impactful artists in my life for how they can tell a story that impacts me so deeply, through something I could never relate to or begin to understand

I like to think this video is a portrayal of an old, worn universe ("God") watching it's creation and wondering and longing for what it must be like to be human. 1:02 you see palace like funishings adorned in gold representing heavenly splender while "God" is disabled in a wheel chair unable to do anything to help. 5:48 the lights above his head showing him to be amongst the stars. The whole time throughout every emotion shared equally as the humans experience them showing omnipresence... This all comes round full cicle to the message of the song being about the atrocities of war and the long lasting consequences for the ones who participate... The echoes of the young one's screams reaching out into eternity and the immense pain the universe must also be feeling experiencing it.

[MrTurtleofAwsesome]

This is amazing and the version is hauntingly beautiful. Super glad to see you're still working with Tancred. You guys had so much chemistry with them on tour

[ChelseaBootClub]

A cinematic masterpiece. Amazing job to all of them.

[ElectricFire]

Seems to go back to the albatross's roots. I enjoyed the first rendition but whatever makes the band happy. Been keeping up with them since seeing them live with Brand New

[Doopdedoopskiboop]

Conor is just so beautiful even when you can't see his face

[theweirdkid]

saw this band open for balance and composure and did not know who they were. Man they were amazing

[hernanardiles]

And on tides we can’t be untouched by
Of troubles stay when lids lay over eyes
The frames and faces I’ve mistaken
For kids whose lives I may have taken

And if so, do I haunt their parents dreams?
And in so, am I summarized by sounds of young lung screams?
Their young one’s screams

And of war bonds and blood stained hands
Combat neurosis shys from indica strands
And it breaks my mother’s heart to know I came back broken
With the thought of my arms spilt open

And if so, would bring their parent’s peace?
And if so, could I give back the sounds of their children’s screams?
Let go of what I’ve seen

And if so, do I haunt their parents dreams?
And in so, am I summarized by sounds of young lung screams?
Their young one’s screams

[DovahkiinTheLegend]

Incredibly vivid and heavy, the video is perfectly adapted to the sound, it’s artistic on such a scale, amazing.

[aliluna]

foxings music videos are always so beautiful and deep, i love how it nots just a music video but also kinda like a short film

[josejlu]
