“A girl I used to date once told me that her parents neglected her as a child. She remembered climbing this tree in her backyard and hiding from them just to see if they would look for her, or even notice that she was gone. I always thought it was such a sad story and I wrote this song for her. It also talks about the ups and downs in a relationship that we’ve had recently.”

-Vic Fuentes

Think about this
The song “Hold on Till May” was partially written about one of Vics old friends. Her parents didn’t care for her so she sat in trees for hours on end seeing if they’d go looking for her, duce the lyrics “One million branches and she loves everyone, mom and dad did you search for me?” The rest of the song was written about Olivia Penpraze. She attempted suicide every May 1st, hense the name “Hold on Till May”. Olivia finally succeeded her suicide attempt in the May of 2012 at 19 years old. He wrote this song for them. He knows what they went through, he cares.

When I was 13, I genuinely thought I was going to be dead before my 18th birthday came around. I turned 18 this past November, and I have no idea what to do with my life. This past week has been bad for my mental health, and this song has been helping me a lot, despite the many times I’ve cried while listening to it. It’s currently 11:50 pm and I plan to listen to this as I fall asleep. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Stay strong everyone, it’s going to get better, I promise. I’m proud of how far you’ve come and I know you’ll make it so much farther. I believe in you, you’re not alone ❤️

Remember you're not a victim of your circumstances, you're a survivor of what has happened to you. A warrior even. I'm so proud of everyone who is holding on til May. We did it this year and we'll do it again next year.

This video has become my yearly ritual, a quiet moment to check in with myself and remind the world (and maybe even myself) that I’m still here, still breathing. It's like returning to a familiar place just to say, “I’m alive.”

this song reminds me of a special friend I had during middle school. She helped me through so much and I tried helping her as much as I could. We were each others rocks and I was cutting but she got me away from it for a while. I remember telling her I listened to this song every may just hoping I could make it to the next one. I thought that she was going to be with me till the end. I lost her last November and listening to this song now is just so painful, even Ironic. I thought I was going to be the one to leave, but it was her :(

I just wanted to add that although she's gone, she gives me motivation to live everyday and make her proud. She was an amazing person and deserves to have a positive impact on my life and others lives. Rest easy my love <3 you will be remembered.

Also this band has helped me sm over the years, especially when I was in middle school and discovering my mental illness to its full capacity. I know how much others have been impacted by ptv too and if youre struggling, please reach out! To anyone. Ending your life will not make things better, they'll just pass on your pain to your loved ones.

Its that time of year again bois... I'm proud of us. Heres to many more. Damn, Guess this is just a tradition I have now it seems. Whoever reads this we needa do this every year lmao.

See you all next year.

Two years ago I played this album inside my room. Listen to it until I fall asleep. Then I woke at this track on chorus. I almost cried when I hear him sing it. So melancholic and nostalgic. I dunno maybe I'm just too sad at that time. Did you ever woke up feeling sad and lonely? Like you lost something you never had or afraid to admit what's making you sad.

[imromero]

Hi everyone! WE DID IT! We held onto May once I am so proud of us I hope you all are okay and have an AMAZING month of May!!! :D

Saw them play this live a couple of weeks ago, I was literally bawling my eyes out from the second Vic said "This song is for any of you who can say that music has saved your life."
Then when it got to "Darling you'll be okay" Tony saw me crying, made a heart with his hands and mouthed the words to me as Vic sang them...
These guys are the sweetest people on earth I swear. They've helped me through so much and if I ever meet them, I'll ask Tony to write darling youll be okay down so I can get it tattooed one day, just so If I go through any more tough times, I'll always remember this band, and how they saved me.<3 :')
