For all the people who are staying alone, crying feeling emptyness or enormous pain or your life is just not supposed to be like this.Yeah me too you are not alone...

[lynnmorgan]

I discovered this band during a very dark time in my life. They have helped me get through days when I was almost ready to give up. Amazing band!

[Danielle-nmqx]

This song is badass
I can't stop replaying it!!

[jimpayne]

Sometimes the YouTube algorithms work just right to recommend the perfect song at the perfect time. This is one of those moments.

[dannytrojan]

This song is what I’m going thru right now. Shout out to the people going thru shit that makes them stronger! Y’all got this 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[andreaorsini]

For all the people starting over, this is for you .
It's ok, new relationships are just the beginning of a new chapter.

[arthurlambert]

This music is timeless, I'm 60 and can't stop listening!!

[kb]

I heard you start to sing and I got chills and teared up. You sound amazing.
RIP Chester 🖤

[lindabennett]

Something better I wish my son would have been able to see something better in his future without taking his own life ...God bless you all...❤....Great Song!!!

[miroslavbabenko]

When listening to this song, want to go out, run up a mountain and shout out loud. Speechless, we need more of these songs for sure.

[RocksterFan]

The intensity and passion you hear in his vocals are spot on. Their music stops you in your tracks. Seriously. You have to stop and wonder who the hell is singing this...so there you go on a search for the man behind the voice. It's amazing that if you close your eyes he takes you the place he is singing about.

Perfect chords, perfect beat for the perfect voice to carry this song. Ladies just lay down...call surrender, lol.

[gutsandcasca]

I really don’t understand why beautiful music like this isn’t played on the Radio man, it’s so crazy why it isn’t, I guess it has to be popular for it to be played, that’s sad, if they were given the opportunity to be played they would become popular quick !

[subtropicstudios]

It's absolutely incredible. Stunning song writing and production quality. One of the best rock tracks of this style I have ever heard.
Truly amazing work lads. 👏

Lyrics
In all this desperation I fear there's nothing I could say
To win this fight
Cause you hesitate much more than I could ever estimate
And that's alright
Cause I'm not insane, I'm only a fool for you
But I couldn't stay away, yeah even if I wanted to
So what am I supposed to do
You don't have to be the one to lose
You don't have to be the one to tell a lie
You don't have to be the one to choose
You don't have to be the one to say goodbye
And I don't have to be the one to take all this
Time you've wasted being dishonest
But I will not be the one who never got the chance to change your mind
Again I'm all alone and left without a reason
To hope you learn, to watch you turn a blind eye to a feeling
So this is the only chance that you'll get to see this through
My eyes before I believe in something better than you
I'm all out of life, babe
It's all gone sideways
Tell me, how can I keep this a secret
When you couldn't either
It's funny how we ended up here
So fucked up and full of fear
You don't have to be the one to lose
You don't have to be the one to tell a lie
You don't have to be the one to choose
You don't have to be the one to say goodbye
And I don't have to be the one to take all this
Time you've wasted being dishonest
But I will not be the one who never got the chance to change your mind
Again I'm all alone and left without a reason
To hope you learn, to watch you turn a blind eye to a feeling
So this is the only chance that you'll get to see this through
My eyes before I believe in something better than you
Believe in something better than you
Believe in something better than you
Again I'm all alone and left without a reason
To hope you learn, to watch you turn a blind eye to a feeling
So this is the only chance that you'll get to see this through
My eyes before I believe in something better than you
Something better than you, something better than you
Something better than you
Believe in something better than you
Something better than you, something better than you
Something better than you
Believe in something better than you
Something better than you, something better than you
Something better than you
Believe in something better than you

You're lyrics aren't just empty words....they run deep and I feel them with every song I listen to! You are honest and no bullshit! I appreciate you guys! I hope to see you live soon and hopefully meet you to say thank you for your music!

[Oh_its_Mike]

3:10 the music coupled with the phone dialing and going to voice mail gives me chills every time. Sick song guys.

[supertrooper]

It’s so awesome to see that The Broken View comes back and checks on us making comments. We need you guys. Have a great 2025 guys and hope to see you on tour this new year. - Matt

[domesticated_kat]

During the height of the abuse, I fell into a dark depression. I sent him this song, begging him to get help, to keep trying.

It got worse...

I had to leave him. To keep me and our kids safe.
That was one year ago today.

But a part of my soul is still laying in my old bed listening to this song.

[johns]

It is 2021 and about time bands like these are given airtime on mainstream radio! Youtube algorithm got it right this time. Brilliant track.
