my dad committed suicide 6 months ago.. this song relates more to me then any other right now <3 stay safe out there and love each other. one day all thats left is our bones <3

[@lordsorceron]

There is someone whom i hopelessly love and adore infinitely and they are very mentally damaged so subsequently there is great distance between us. This song is so dead on and perfectly breaks my heart but almost makes me smile and find peace in the great pain that is endured between both of us. I will never stop loving her and i will never stop loving this band.

I've heard this song maybe hundreds of times before, know every word, every lick, all of it. And for the first time, this song broke me and made me cry. I've never cried to any song, and I love music. Sitting in my car alone, and actually hearing "I wish you the rest so now you can sleep" and "I can't imagine how you missed her" followed by that last breakdown, it just brought tears down my cheeks. Thank you The Contortionist. I've been a fan since 2015 and I hope I get to see you guys preform this live one day.

I lost my father in 2006 when he was cities away and I had no idea he was dying. I miss him so much. He barely missed meeting his first grandchild. Now I'm 35with a 10 year old son, a 3 year old daughter, and an incredibly loving wife. But I miss my father more than I can even put words to. I ache every time I think about him. I would give anything to turn back time and be there with him on his death bed. This song gives me strength, yet brings me to my knees in tears every time I listen to it. Such powerful music and words. Thank you Mike. Thank you The Contortionist.

If I was discussing the greatest prog tracks of all time, this would absolutely be one of the first few that come to mind.

This album now haunts me, in a crushing-but-beautiful way. It seems to be Michael dealing with the death of his friend, seemingly, from the description, from an opiate OD. Around 18 months later, my good friend Hedge died of an accidental OD, having battled mental illness and addiction for over a decade. With the album being called "Clairvoyant", it was almost a foreshadowing, a prediction, of my own loss and grief. It was like The Great Mother was calling out to me through the music, trying to offer some comfort or preparation. Thank you, men of The Contortionist, for this. It helps.

Fuck... Everytime I listen to this I end up crying

[@lames_jahey9734]

Just watched them perform this live on their last show for the reimagined tour in Chicago. Never been so emotionally moved by a performance. I couldn't hold it together once he sang, "Where was I when you called home". Aaaaand now I'm getting emotional again thinking about it.

[@thurmanator6969]

This song work for me like transfusion of sadness with a portion of responsibility to overcome it to make myself stronger tomorrow. For now just hoping to fall asleep. Thanks Michael 😟 I love it beyond limits.
