Every time you hear it it destroys you something more and the song also becomes more powerful and beautiful xx

I always come back to this when I'm feeling low and it breaks me every time. I discovered Frightening Rabbit after Scott's passing, and I'm so mad I didn't know if them earlier.

There was peace. But we lost you.

Pity he never sought help but that is a very selfish way for me to think because id have loved to hear more from him for years to come but alas, he knew medication could help him but he chose not to take it because "they kill our judgment", fair dues mate, you lived and died your way. more than most of us can say. Rest in peace man.

Years after his death I love it that I still find these little hidden gems he left behind. Each time I find one, I dread thinking that one of them will be the last I get to discover.

Still here. Still hurting. Still thankful.

It still hurts

Still here. Still miss ya big yin

Revisit - well, numerous revisits - an absolute masterpiece x

thank you for uploading this, so lovely to listen to.

The complete and ultimate rock star

Take your life / give it a shake/ This ambiguity…

"It’s a real thing. It’s a real thought. It’s a thought that I’ve taken to a place that I’m far less comfortable with… I’ve gone 90 percent of the way through that song in real life. But at the same time it’s gratifying. It’s heartening to know that I’ve been through that, and I’m stood there performing that song, alive and feeling good about it. It’s a tough one. My mum and dad were at the show in Glasgow. We can joke about it, but it must be really hard to hear your son sing about that." Scott (from interview with Vice, published May 4th 2018, 5 days before his passing).

💔💔💔

I spend the second week of May obsessed with this song every year

So so so sad…. The complexities of this man’s torment and lyrical power of his songs bewilders me to this day… every word meant.. every verse a story.. every song an emotional roller coaster we can all relate too.. a beautiful soul Scott…

powerfull

Man I miss him so much. RIP Scott.

I return to this often, heartbreakingly beautiful song xx

Thinking of you. Miss you Scott. So Beautiful inside and out. Met you Philadelphia. Think of you and your Loved ones often.💔❤🎶

Thank you for this ♥️

When was this recorded?

It's been 4 years... We miss you, Scott.

What gold he left for us.

☮️

Haunting, so sad. You must be in a horrific place to write a song like this. And for it to come true.. RIP Mate

Check on your friends guys. Are they ok? Are they hiding their pain? I know I do. After a very difficult time where I was close to floating away- I’d made a promise to my brother that I would l never take that journey. But there are very few people that would think it would cross my mind. I still hide pain and that promise I made means that I live with the pain, rather than leaving my brother in pain. Because I truly love him more than life and the pain of living is my reminder that I love him more than myself. Not everyone has that to keep them here. Be a friend - hear the pain they hide.

On the northern side, is a Fife of mine. Bless you Sir. Missed, but your songs live on. Those manic gulls scream ‘it’s ok’.

0:56 that line hits hard.... i wish you could've put it off forever RIP Scott

He’s one of the greatest songwriters I’ve ever heard.

Wow. I’ve never heard this version before great God heartbreakingly beautiful.

The band was brilliant , This song always gets to me so much i live near the forth Bridge anytime you see the helicopters out with the lights on you know it another suicide, heartbreaking

Thank's for the music FR and Scott. We will never forget you.

You can never know what is happening in one person's life and what may seem to be going great. Ask probing questions, bring kindness and lots of empathy and understanding and, sorry, you might still not get there. but try.

Happy 40th Scott. You are missed.

brings tears to my eyes ....but beatifull song

First time I've heard this version - hauntingly sad and beautiful xx

Can anyone post the lyrics?

So you just stepped out Of the front of my house And I'll never see you again. I closed my eyes for a second And when they opened You weren't there. And the door shut shut I was vacuum packed, Shrink-wrapped out of air And the spine collapsed And the eyes rolled back To stare at my starving brain And fully clothed, I float away (I'll float away) Down the Forth, into the sea I think I'll save suicide for another day. And I picture this corpse On the M8 hearse And I half run away to sleep On a rolled up coat Against the window With the strobe of the sun And the life I've led Am I ready to leap Is there peace beneath The roar of the Forth road bridge? On the Northern side There's a Fife of mine And a boat in the port for me And fully clothed, I float away (I'll float away) Down the Forth, into the sea I'll steer myself Through drunken waves These manic gulls Scream it's okay Take your life Give it a shake Gather up All your loose change I think I'll save suicide for another year.

Tried to listen to to the end but just too heart breaking…

RIP Scott

So powerful.

You ain't kidding. This song is found nowhere besides this video, and it happens to be the first song I've really fallen in love with from Scott. I'm trying to figure out the chords right now, and I can't find the lyrics anywhere, so I'll throw those down here as I figure them out. Forgive me if they're somewhere else officially and I've got something wrong. Doing my best. The chord progression by the way, is D, G, D, A. [LYRICS] [VERSE] No promise of love No peace in the beak of a dove No warning in the sky Stay indoors tonight The sand The glow The midnight masses go [Bridge] All these songs of love All these stories were never enough To keep me warm [CHORUS] And it gets cold It gets cold Alone in a blanket of snow It gets cold It gets cold wrap up with me nasty clothes when it gets cold [VERSE] There's a change In the wind And no one's takin' me in Oh, to find the place I can't see the stars so I can't find a way to the sand to the glow of decked halls in the murdering homes [BRIDGE] and all of their songs of love and the stories are never enough When [Chorus] it gets cold It gets cold Alone in a blanket of snow it gets cold it gets cold wrap up with me nasty clothes It gets cold It gets cold All alone In a blanket of snow It gets cold It gets cold Wrap up with me nasty clothes When it gets cold

"And if all that is left of us, for this I would die long before my time"

Been more than 2 years and I'm still not over it, suicide is an epidemic, and it took one of the most talented songwriters of all time away from us.

..........so many thank you's........Miss hearing his voice....especially when you hear him sing his songs in a new interpretation. More rare but never ever forgotten, and always loved.

Contender for the absolute saddest song ever recorded.
