Comforted to find I’m not the only one who cries every time I hear this song

[AelaGrows]

The added bit at the end...
"No. There's no answer. There's no question. There's no place where I sleep at night, where I put my head is home."

[chloereed]

And the earth looked at me and said "wasn't that fun?"
And I replied "I'm sorry if I hurt anyone"

[wearetunatuna]

dude this song always gets me. But seeing his passion whilst singing choked me up. i cant imagine what was going through his mond when he wrote this

[codytaylor]

I honestly want to hear him sing this live without the filters. He has the vocal aggression and passion of a solid metal vocalist.

[Erik-kiir]

Words can't describe how nostalgic this song makes me feel. The way he sings it with so much passion always gets me teary eyed ;_;

[roehle]

Man, must have been so stressful and exhausting to do all of this live.
The amount of joy and passion this guy has for his music is just beautiful.

"No, there's no answer, there's no question, there's no place where i sleep at night where i put my head as home". I love that added part

[laynebeutler]

When I was done crying....I put this song on repeat. This is the only song in the world that makes me feel this much emotion.

[XxlildramaxX]

I tried singing along with the song and there are no spaces for breaths lol

[ChuckFristian]

I don't know if I love the recorded or live version better

[bluckq]

Damn the passion in this guy is insane!

[Ergot]

Chills bruh, chills. Such a beautiful, beautiful song.

[mythperson]

Literally sobbing while writing this but the emotion, the song, the everything. Its so touching and it will always be that way

[PessimistNinja]

I loved this song the second I heard it. But my mother just passed this past Monday and I was able to hold her hand. This song played over and over in my head. But this live version could be a metal song for sure.

[mcanders]

The first time I listened to this was wondering what I was listening to. Soon after the part with the earth looking at him I began to sob, because I realised I don't fully understand what he is saying, but i completly understand the meaning of what he is saying.

[reginasings]

So brilliant!!!! Episode 9 of Dark closes with this perfect song! The cave, etc! So great!!!!

[erinchristine]

Well, I looked Dan up again to see if he had a podcast yet because the dude is hilarious... found this instead, and now I'm pretty sure he's a genius.

[willanderson]

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME, DON'T WORRY SO MUCH...

[clockworkmechman]

WOW! No song elucidates the psychedelic experience so well. Thank you, Sir.
