@@Max_JustMax That is a big issue in our culture today: instead of communicating, we cancel whatever point of view is counter to our own. And it is not a political thing; all sides do it. The algorithms are programming us to be more stubborn and solidified in our own points of view. Slap on the blinders and just say everyone else is wrong. There is nothing more frustrating to me than a narrow mind and an inability to have a discussion logically. You can't learn anything if you can't communicate. I never thought I would see a time when a single word is banned just for its implications or because it is uncomfortable. It makes me sad, but also frightened about where it is going.

That last part of the song is as real as it gets. Ren was running to the bridge quick as he could, calling Joe over and over. Joe was on the phone with another friend of theirs, so as long as Ren got a busy signal he knew he still had time. Then Joe's phone went out of service. Minutes later Ren ran onto the now empty bridge and looked over the edge for his friend, whose body was never found. Amazing work from Ren again. Blessings.

This song reminds me of my cousin. She was 31 and she suffered from Bipolar Disorder. After years of battling against her own mind she lost the battle and jumped from her apartment balcony. I was 16 when this happened and I watched my family fall apart through this, her mom and step father took their lives 3 months later and my dad fell into a deep addiction. My Dad is sober today, but I watched him suffer and my family deal with the trauma. It took me till I was 30 to address this trauma. After a couple years of therapy, I’m in a good place, but the pain never fully goes away. It amazing you leave an open space to reach out, cause my cousin never had that safe space and I feel more and more of us need to help provide that and de-stigmatize talking about whether we are doing alright or not.

What hits me hardest is how incredibly well Ren has captured both sides. The internal struggle of fighting against the darkness that keeps trying to drag us down, and the grief of those left behind.

Ren is truly an exceptional artist.
@PDXmaker Жыл бұрын
Always love your reactions and compassion. Ren is one of my favorite artists alive right now. I am grateful he is alive. As someone who has felt so hopeless and suicidal in the past (due to so much intense trauma, ptsd, depression, anxiety and a life of intense chronic pain and illness and suffering) - and as someone who has lived to see things get better, to heal and grow and experience light and love and joy again - these words and video bring me to tears. It hits hard. I can only imagine how hard this was to write and sing but it’s fucking beautiful and heartbreaking and honest. Grief is all the love we never get to fully express to someone once they are gone - big love equals big loss and grief. Ren certainly poured out the love in this one. To anyone out there feeling alone tonight… even if you can’t find the light in this moment, I promise it’s still there. So many of us have felt lost in the darkness and truly believed leaving was our only way out - but I promise you there is hope. Call a hotline, call a trusted person, talk to a therapist if you can. If you need help, call or text 988 for free support from trained counselors. There IS light and joy and love and healing awaiting on the other side of this darkness if you just keep searching for it. I am proof. It takes work, and it’s not always easy, but the beauty of life is worth the fight. You are not alone. You are loved and you are stronger than you know. You deserve a shot at happiness, healing and peace. You deserve a shot at feeling the sun on your face. 💜

What is amazing is how vulnerable Ren was at when he wrote this and created this video plus currently releasing to it all of us. 2nd is Ren’s loss of his childhood when he lost his innocence and feeling of immortality. He reminds me of the Maestro Tuomas Holopainen who composed most of Nightwish songs, poetry in his lyrics, and music. One theme Tuomas has is Dead Boy meaning a loss of childhood. Finally, while emphasizing the pain Ren’s friend Joe was going through also showing how hurt he was by the choice his friend Joe made along with the guilt of just possibly missing getting to Joe in time to save him or even to say goodbye plus Joe’s body was never found for closure. In other words, the choices one makes affects more than oneself. As Aurora has sung ‘Let the River Run’.

I've watched a few reactions to this song since last night and for some reason this is the time that my dam finally broke. When I was 9 or 10, I lost my grandfather to his own choices. He had been in remission from cancer for a long time but had a few other things going on and woke up one morning feeling worse than he had in decades. Racked with pain and whatever else was going through his mind he made his way to the garage and punctuated his story with a shotgun. I haven't thought about it in a long time. When my dad told my brother and I a few days later it was one of the first times I ever him saw him break and I changed. I became the one that stayed solid for my family and friends when things got bad and only dealt with my shit after they were good. I'm still this way and it led me to me heading down that road once or twice in my early 20's. I understand both sides of this situation. I get feeling like there's no other way out and I get being hurt in a whole new way because someone left you behind. I get feeling guilty for blaming someone for the choice they made but also feeling like the guilt is misplaced and you have a right to be pissed. It fucks you up and it's fucked up. I'm sorry for dumping this here, but I needed to get it out. Please, for the love of your loved ones, if you're going through anything like this reach out to someone.
