[@TrickyDaFolf]

7 years ago, i lost my boyfriend, and even though it was long distance, i still loved him alot.. and i thought because he had abusive parents.. i thought he offed himself honestly and.. i miss him deeply, i heard this song and... it fit perfectly.. anytime i miss him i just.. listen to this song and it helps me cope, because i always told him id be by his side.. wherever you are, i miss you, i wish you weren't gone, you had such an impact on my life and.. i wont forget you. tiny add on here: He was... he had such a bright hope in him, he wanted to be a game designer someday and well, he was also known by his friends as a good pixel artist and an even greater person, and although me and his friends dont talk anymore, i.. i hope they atleast remember him, because they don't really remember me anymore, but i made a sort of vow to keep his name alive, make him always remembered. I appreciate the kind words everyone.. i was just expecting it to be lost in the sea of comments.. so.. thank you.. Update: i have now graduated... i made it Dusk.. i hope you're proud of me.. Been 7 years, around this time today he.. he left... 9-18-15.

[@maryreneereuter7226]

My boyfriend committed suicide a week after my 19th birthday the same year that this song came out. I used to hear it and burst into tears every time. Now I have the sheet music and play it. 15 years later I can actually get through it from start to finish, but only some of the time. It takes me right back to that feeling. I didn’t want him to be alone when his soul embarked. There are some types of pain that can never be fixed. This song takes me right back to that feeling.

I used to think it was really really sad, but now that I'm older, a little wiser, and have someone whom I love with all of my heart, I see it as a dark but really sweet and comforting song. I really would and _will_ follow her into the afterlife, no matter what it is. Whether it's heaven, hell, or absolutely nothing at all, I'll be at her side for it.

[@filipinagirl7393]

i felt a love as deep as what this song portrays, to someone i connected with the most in my life.. only for him to cheat. now, i don't know where that exact love goes.. maybe it just goes..

[@zedzeduk]

@@filipinagirl7393 I'm not religious, but I firmly believe in the passage "Love is patient, Love is kind", which contains "Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth". Your man could not be honest with you (he cheated), so his love for you was not as yours was for him. The man you loved wasn't actually the man himself, but a better man that who he could be. It's so sad that he was not worthy of the love you had for him, but so it goes. You will, in time, find another that does, and realise that above all else in a relationship - there must be "truth". I hope you are ok.

[@james-nw9up]

Everybody dies and whether you believe in an afterlife or not you still wish to be reunited with someone you've lost when the time comes at least

[@watchmakingman9342]

What a genius music video. The imagery of the tiny hole (Idea of death) growing from the minuscule thing we never think of as a child. Gradually growing larger and larger to when it's unavoidable later in life. Then the reality that maybe it's nothing to be scared of or worried about.

I first listened to this song when I was about 15 years old... 32 now and I still love it the same. Beautifully written. All of death cabs songs are! Thank you for being there for me through the different chapters of my journey.

[@imatsoup1437]

I'm chronically ill and my health has completely failed me. I turned 31 yesterday, I married my wife four years ago and intended to get a tattoo related to this song. She is an artist and she actually became a tattoo artist and she tattooed it on me herself for my birthday. I'm totally disabled and she's my sole caretaker. I've tried to get insurance to help but they won't send me home health nurse to alleviate my wife from caring for me. We've always loved this song and it's especially been meaningful given our situation and my failing health. I love her to pieces, sometime I just feel really bad, like I'm a burden at 31 years old. It sucks but I'm glad she loves me and we can share music like this that we grew up on and really cherish it together. It eases some of the pain being able to feel loved and validated hearing words that we both hold dear for each other. What a wonderful song that holds so much meaning for so many different people.

[@nonsense2369]

This is truly one of the most powerful songs ever written in the English language.

[@zeldahasastory8648]

I sing this to my daughter all the time. She's five. She has cerebral palsy. She was born very very early and she and I both passed away during birth. It was very traumatic but we both survived. She's now a healthy vibrant little thing, fighting the good fight as we diligently try to help her learn to walk and live the best possible life. She is such a bright happy white light and what can sometimes be a very dark situation and pulls both of her parents through everyday. She loves to hear me sing this song. She can't fully talk yet but she sure can hold a note. This might be one of her favorite songs that her mama sings. Children with cerebral palsy don't have a very long life expectancy. When she decides it's time for her to go, I'll be right there with her. 💜

I've been singing this to my son since he was 1 year old and he dis now 5 years old. This and Tiny Dancer by Elton John are 2 songs that I sung to him all the time when he was just a little baby. For some reason they both reminded me of mine and his relationship.

Synchronicity. Timing is key as is patience. Never cut out unless you are sure its a lost cause. I hate those love stories where the soulmates keep missing one another by a hair. If one had been patient and waited, they would have reunited. Always stay.

[@sleeplessnight216]

Lyrics: Love of mine Someday you will die But I'll be close behind I'll follow you into the dark No blinding light Or tunnels, to gates of white Just our hands clasped so tight Waiting for the hint of a spark If Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark In Catholic school, as vicious as Roman rule I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black And I held my tongue as she told me "Son, fear is the heart of love, " so I never went back And if Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark You and me have seen everything to see From Bangkok to Calgary And the soles of your shoes are all worn down The time for sleep is now But it's nothing to cry about 'Cause we'll hold each other soon In the blackest of rooms And if Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark Then I'll follow you into the dark

Sitting next to my exwife (I love her so much, but we let life get in the way) she is slowly moving on to her next destination in this journey. The pain from the cancer treatments were too much and she decided that she had had enough. I played this song for her, I held her hand and kissed her.

​@@TheHappys you're making some wild assumptions here. The way I read his comment is that his exwife is/was the one with cancer, her treatments were too painful so she elected to stop the treatments and move on to the next step in the journey of life, and that OP was by her side because he loves and cares for her still. I recognize where you came to your conclusion, the wording is subject to interpretation, however let's not by hasty in disparaging the character of a person you do not know and that another person has already stated they care for.

That was well over a decade ago and it's just stuck with me like a bad habit. Sadly we grew up and drifted apart.

It’s important when we encounter teachers like this one that make us feel we matter and share their passion for a subject. My advice (as a fellow teacher who may be about the same age as yours) is : Don’t forget to tell him how much the year and his teaching have meant for you ,perhaps bu writing a card or drawing something for him. I’m sure he’ll appreciate it . Wishing you the best for those often difficult but also important high school years ! 💜

This song makes me so emotional. I listen to it to help me cry when I need to release my feelings. Thanks, Death Cab. Your hurt helps others deal with their losses in a way you can't begin to imagine.

You’re not alone Bennett. I’m 25 I’m with you

[@susansanchez6528]

Damn ya'll still so young I'm in my 40's and this song makes me think of my best friend who past on 9/11. Sad yet oddly comforting

[@LynnAgain83]

Oh what I wouldn't give to be 24 again.. I'm in my late 30's & although I'm now over 6yrs sober after a decade long opioid addiction,I feel much older than I am. I remember hearing this song in the midst of those dark times yet it reminds me of how I dug myself out of my own pit of misery even if it took a few tries. If I could have a redo I'd surround myself w/good people,finish school and make something out of my life but I obviously can't redo my life so I'll try to make the best out of the rest of my life,God willing. If you're still young and are reading this try not to be so hard on yourself,do the best you can do that you feel proud of YOURSELF years down the road,try not to spend time worrying so much about people who won't/don't respect you or who bring you down,be your beautiful,unique self and make sure you don't lose yourself in the madness of the world. As the saying goes: "Wherever you go,there you'll be" Make it a good life.

my father is 37, and going through some addictions. he introduced this to me, an 11 year old. best experience ever. this was actually their wedding song! :) I’ll follow him into the dark, anytime.

[@rondabealer7416]

1st time I heard this,I ugly cried!! I cried because of how beautiful but heartbreaking I found the lyrics and never knew just how personal they would become. I just turned 55 in February and this still is my go to when I need a good ugly cry!🙏💜🎶

[@Roshankeyal]

I was introduced to this song in 2017 by one of my aussie brother....it touched me.. Miss ya melbourne and cam bro

[@jonathandeneke7192]

I first heard this song around a decade ago. I immediately fell in love with it and thought about it being a first dance song. I recently reconnected with someone who my heart bursts for. I mentioned listening to this song and she mentioned it being a first dance song with no prompting.

[@CancelHappiness]

man, I miss being happy. paradoxically, listening to this sad ass song was the soundtrack for some of the best moments of my life

[@jessesgirl10]

Good God, has it really been this long? My daughter really loved this band and she saw them twice before she got cancer. This was one band that helped carry her through the treatments along with a local radio station. Her fiance sent a letter to the band letting them know how important they were to my daughter during this. To this day I still am not allowed to play this CD around my daughter's fiance. And I still cry hearing certain songs because i miss her every single day. But hey, For Aletha's sake Stay Beautiful.

Seeing someone you loved at one time go down the wrong path to an inevitably dark fate hurts more than words can convey, but this does it justice. At the end of the day, only you can save your soul.

[@twasbrilligandthesli]

One of the most beautiful songs ever!

[@seeyouinheaven]

True that.

[@anandodasgupta]

Probably one of the most romantic songs ever, at 39 not having someone to love.. One can keep dreaming.

[@kq87]

Love ourselves. We will always have ourselves. And of course everyone around us.

at 00:49 the sound cuts out completely.. does this happen to anyone else???

Skhet M I have a feeling that their own song got a Content ID match. I'm sure Warner owns the rights to the music. And this is why KZbin sucks.

[@JNava]

I always thought this music video was about depression, that hole represents the emptiness you feel when you’re depressed, starts off small & it continues to grow. & as it grows bigger & bigger every day you learn to move your way around it & ignore it as best you can without falling into that hole. That’s why at the end he just lets himself fall & when he realizes it’s not that deep of a whole he comes to an understanding that death is not as bad, so he sinks deeper & dies or commits suicide. That’s why you don’t see the hole or him at the end of the video because there was never a hole, there was just his depression. The singer did say the song was about loosing a loved one & coming to the realization that we’re all going to die someday, maybe he just lost somebody & is depressed? ...Either that or the guy has a really bad termite problem. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@gisselleramos331]

This comment really help me with my mental health, thank you I just wanted u to know that.

[@DestineeReynolds]

Yes, I believe the hole represents his grief over losing a loved one.

[@debbyw90]

she “ripped a hole” into his life by passing away...in the end he wants to follow her, i think that’s what the hole represents...her passing

[@seangallagher1947]

It is about losing your spouse. The hole it leaves behind.

[@redeyedrednek]

I lost my wife 5 years ago. Theres def a massive black hole in my life. Sucks.

Jeezus... First time hearing this song and I've never felt so SINGLE in my life. Being middle aged and adverse to dating, I have zero plans of being in a relationship ever again, so this hits...

[@TheHappys]

This songs helps with ptsd I had. One was my ex gf jumped out of a moving car at 24 after getting back into drugs. One friend who OD on accident, and another who committed suicide. They all were very pretty and had a lot of potential and it haunts me at times. Remembering them for the good times.❤️

[@MEGalomaniac6829]

This song always reminded me of my mother after she lost my dad. Now that she's gone, this just reminds me that they're together again.

[@brandengill1405]

So I'm an alcoholic, and the first time I tried to get sober a couple years ago, I basically, in a nutshell, hallucinated that a ghost more or less was trying to kill me and make me it's friend forever. Crazy I know, but I would hear this song being played somewhere outside in the distance, and when I would walk through my yard, the sound would change direction, but the song would play on repeat for hours on end, (all while dealing with this "ghost") and I swear I had never heard this song before. I googled the lyrics and here I am. I still swear that I've never heard this song before then. I'm a year sober now and this song still scares the shit out of me

[@stellalebo6707]

2 years ago i lost my mom and I sung this song for her I her death bed so she would feel that I'm always right beside her and I'll never forget about her and I'll always love her no matter what she was very kind and sweet to my kids she bought them toys and I know that she was apart of their childhood and I told them this and once I did they cried for weeks and weeks and after our dogs died and they only had them as their friends they loved them with all their heart I remember them playing together in our home when she came from Las Vegas..I love her and miss her so much she was the best to my kids I love them...
