"You're Not You Anymore" Lyrics
A garden grew between us in the love we lived without. Remaining faithful to the flood, our tears have purpose in a drought. Tread lightly, so footprints can't disturb the bed we've made. With restlessness reserved for both the bodies it contains. Aim your sharpest arrow at the center of my chest. A memorial to signify the sense of helplessness. We dare not mourn our past lives, our loss will be reborn... because I couldn't love who you were, but you're not you anymore. Sew your skeleton to mine, I'm no good on my own. Stitch yourself to either side of me so I will never be alone. We mend our past mistakes as a symbol that we've grown. So we no longer place our weight on top of broken bones. Mark an end to aimless roaming with a double sided knife. If we develop eyes for others, may we both be stripped out of sight. Liken our divide to partitions in the earth. Wrapped in walls of vines, growing out of common ground. A garden grew between us. Our tears have purpose in a drought. Mark an end to aimless roaming with a double sided knife. Taking steps towards each other, we could end both our lives... and that'd be fine.

[@deathpanorama_]

About 10 months ago I tried to do the most selfish thing and leave this earth with out a trace. During my contemplation heard this song in my head. “Sew your skeleton to mine, I’m no good on my own. Stitch yourself to either side of me, so I’ll never be alone.” And I thought about the people that were most important to me and how my addictions and anxiety is what was killing me. But, these Certain persons helped me keep afloat even though I was sinking deeply. I wasn’t me anymore. So I got up and instead of going through with something so terrible. I put this record on and played it all the way through till I reached YNYA and I just balled my eyes out knowing I’m gonna be okay. I have all the help in front of me but I need to take it! I’m clean and happier then ever but some days are battles for sure but if it wasn’t for Brendan’s words I probably wouldn’t be here right now. Thank you so much Counterparts. My favorite band forever

[@chancelor]

William Sanchez I’m proud of you man. Keep going

[@deathpanorama_]

cody mason just needed to be Real their music just shakes my core. They played at my home venue and they played YNYA and I screamed every word and thanked Brenden and he told me he loved me 👏🏽

[@JOKE485]

2 years later and I still shed tears. I remember watching CP live in 2016 and this tall dude was crying next to me in the middle of the moshpit when they played Outlier. Grabbed his hand, low key gay. Held it up high and sang to the lyrics “I am what I am, and I am an outcast!” Never felt a bro hug so good right after

[@earlturner5449]

Low key gay 😂

Hopefully you were wearing socks otherwise that's pretty gay 🤨👀

[@TheSilabjo1234]

"CP" yeah lets not call em that lmfao

[@MartinUltraHD]

The only band that knows how to make you cry but at the same makes you mosh in the pit full of feels

[@Pur3ScarsVII]

nah, there are a few

Architects, safe.

“If we develop eyes for others, may we both be stripped of sight!” So epic

[@blakeseifert8456]

Anyone else hear Brendan's background clean singing during the "sew your skeleton to mine" part?? Such a cool little extra layer thrown in. This band is nothing short of spectacular

[@dusted1337]

Im not crying, you're crying

[@marielunehbrisebois]

I am, indeed

[@user-id2dx4qd6j]

dusted1337 hi not crying, you’re crying, i’m will

[@BlakeMcConnellMusic]

this is by far one of the best music videos ive seen in a long time. directing and photographic masterpiece in terms of visuals and representation of what the song is about.

[@holdengibler5118]

Blake McConnell they do all that on top of this being an amazing song. Counterparts never disappoints.

[@Deathweebsxdeargamer]

2024,Who still listening?🔥

[@J3wFro69]

Still their best album and arguably their best song

[@Treizeswanks]

Dude I literally go through their discography every other week.

[@petroglyphs2575]

fuckin chills man. just when i thought music videos have kinda become pointless. you guys come out with the heat and wreak me right in the eye balls. which are a little wet btw. this is on par with the trilogy of videos from savior (jaded, morning, stories) fucking nailed the emotion on this one

[@erbihc1781]

I felt massive chills down my spine to at the end, too. I don't even get what's going on in the clip and the lyrics

[@MrKjg2388]

Agreed homie

[@DeadHandss]

This music video was just as powerful as the song is. Such emotion. Thank you Counterparts.

[@JF-jv5jt]

wrote a poem influenced by this song for my English class, it got a reward.. xD great song, lyrics truly hit in a way ive never experienced before.

[@hitokiriibattousaii]

I'm no good on my own "you're not you anymore." that hits home.

[@Kidcrowley]

I'm completely speechless...the lyrics, the video, the instrumentals, this is perfect.

[@ultrawolflord8495]

Been listening to this song for years now, but this is the first time i watched the video since it was released and it brought tears to my eyes. you forget how relatable a song can be when you can't make out the screaming.

[@eduardobfw]

taking steps towards each other....we could end... BOOOOOTH OUUUUUUR LIVEEEEEEEEEEEES

[@ByTheGrave]

And that’d be fine

[@ruicarneiro1640]

Yup, Counterparts best song.

[@unbounder]

Easily one of their best written songs for sure, tingles all over

[@emptysoul2757]

[@jakerobins83]

Ya think? Always struggled to get into this one compared to most of the others on their latest album. Love the ending and the video though!

[@user-id2dx4qd6j]

Volution Apparel isolation is up there with this song for me

[@TrinityRourke]

I couldn't love Who you were But you're not you Any more

[@TheBattlefieldPro97]

Fuck, I almost thought I would cry, Brendan Murphy really hits you like a train with his voice

[@rickgrimes5479]

Counterparts make me happy :)

[@dercioribeiro8732]

I almost didnt cry this time

[@vincentbeverloo1320]

It’s premium poetry, about more simple themes on life. the bass it’s complimenting the lyrics but going it’s own seperate path. The drums connecting the 3

[@ReneZZ]

I fell in love since the very first time I saw this video three days ago. You have accomplished something else with this song and video. Something I can't explain. Masterpiece.

[@leandroantelo7154]

Bue......... 😂

[@aitokoojii1462]

I heard this band for the first time today, and I fell in love instantly.

[@andrewnichols7474]

One of the greatest songs, one of the greatest bands 🖤

[@ByTheGrave]

Crying. Amazing song and the video honestly couldn’t have been any better.

[@HorseOnTheLonePrairie]

I am too. What a great band & the message in this song shines through for me personally. Looking in the mirror 3 years from now not knowing who you are or what you've become. Whether it's because of drug addition, a broken relationship or just not staying strong to who you wanted to be. No other word to describe this song but beautiful 💕💕✊

[@Admiral_Potato41]

Seeing these guys live tomorrow night at the palladium with architects. I'm so pumped

[@Kidcrowley]

I really love how every single line on most of counterparts songs just make beautiful and powerful quotes. I hope brendan never stops writing and the band keeps pushing out bangers.

[@andrewphuck9795]

I love counterparts more than life itself

[@killakaycc]

Jesus Christ. They deserve so many accolades. They NEVER seize to amaze me…

[@ChrisMusickx]

Best song on the album

[@CB-rv2lj]

I think the best thing that translates to life from a hardcore song is beautiful gentle riffs like when life is ok but you have this weird feeling, then the heavy breakdown comes in, just like when that moment youve been dreading gets dropped on you. Its exactly what you feel.

[@peanutbutterjelly009]

FAVORITE BAND EVER

[@pektelecom1250]

luna หนังเอึก

[@HDMRTWDP]

Sometimes I wonder what people want from this band that keeps them from becoming more noticed. They have a sound that is very distinct, their lyrics consistently reference personal experience and reference other songs and albums they have written. This band is arguably one of the best in the hard/abrasive music scene, but still no love. Then again I guess some of that is just my opinion.

[@eddieg1386]

No love my ass. Lots of people love this fucking band say the exact same thing you're saying here about them being the best in the scene. 100% most the consistent band in the genre.

[@danielstallings8697]

harry_sandusky they're pretty famous. There's alot of amazing bands out there who have no love at all. I do think this band is noticed. But at the same time I wish they were playing Infront of thousands of people at their concerts 😂

[@chpc6217]

Wish they were bigger but yeah they do have a solid following. They’re mine and so many others favorite band. Humble dudes that have put out masterpiece after masterpiece and are even better live.

[@tessacampbell9566]

harry_sandusky makes it that much better when u see them live and it’s just 80 ppl throwing down in a small room

[@Dustindeshields1]

Ive thought the same thing for years. I think its one of those special things that only some of us get. Im done trying to understand why they arent bigger than they are, i love the community that asks the same.

[@edgarallenpoo3256]

This song was my go to during my battle with addiction. I love and listen to counterparts since i was young....but this song... i have to listen sparingingly. When im hurting and wanting to "go back out" this is it. And i love. Seeing younger people be moved jusf as deeply says enough for this band,, lyrics, and instrumentals. The fact theyve changed so many in different generations says enough

[@myplague1576]

Ringkasan Lirik Video Dengarkan Hasil Utama Sebuah taman tumbuh di antara kami dalam cinta yang kami jalani tanpanya A garden grew between us in the love we lived without Tetap setia pada air bah, air mata kita mempunyai tujuan dalam kekeringan Remaining faithful to the flood our tears have purpose in a drought Tapak pelan-pelan agar jejak kaki tidak mengganggu tempat tidur yang telah kita buat Tread lightly so footprints can't disturb the bed we've made Dengan kegelisahan yang diperuntukkan bagi kedua tubuh yang dikandungnya With restlessness reserved for both the bodies it contains Arahkan panah tertajammu ke tengah dadaku Aim your sharpest arrow at the center of my chest Sebuah peringatan untuk menandakan rasa ketidakberdayaan A memorial to signify the sense of helplessness Kita tidak berani meratapi kehidupan masa lalu kita, kehilangan kita akan terlahir kembali We dare not mourn our past lives our loss will be reborn Karena aku tidak bisa mencintai siapa dirimu yang dulu tapi kamu bukan dirimu lagi Because I couldn't love who you were but you're not you anymore Jahit kerangkamu ke kerangkaku. Aku tidak bisa melakukannya sendiri Sew your skeleton to mine I'm no good on my own Jahit dirimu di kedua sisiku sehingga aku tidak akan pernah sendirian Stitch yourself to either side of me so I will never be alone Kita memperbaiki kesalahan masa lalu sebagai simbol bahwa kita telah bertumbuh We mend our past mistakes as a symbol that we've grown Jadi kita tidak lagi meletakkan beban kita di atas tulang yang patah So we no longer place our weight on top of broken bones Tandai berakhirnya penjelajahan tanpa tujuan dengan pisau dua sisi Mark an end to aimless roaming with a double-sided knife Jika kita mengembangkan pandangan terhadap orang lain, mungkin kita berdua akan kehilangan pandangan If we develop eyes for others may we both be stripped of sight Ibaratkan kesenjangan kita dengan sekat-sekat di bumi Liken our divide to partitions in the earth Terbungkus dinding tanaman merambat yang tumbuh dari tanah bersama Wrapped in walls of vines growing out of common ground Sebuah taman tumbuh di antara kami A garden grew between us Air mata kita memiliki tujuan dalam kekeringan Our tears have purpose in a drought Jahit kerangkamu ke kerangkaku. Aku tidak bisa melakukannya sendiri Sew your skeleton to mine I'm no good on my own Jahit dirimu di kedua sisiku sehingga aku tidak akan pernah sendirian Stitch yourself to either side of me so I will never be alone Kita memperbaiki kesalahan masa lalu sebagai simbol bahwa kita telah bertumbuh We mend our past mistakes as a symbol that we've grown Jadi kita tidak lagi meletakkan beban kita di atas tulang yang patah So we no longer place our weight on top of broken bones Tandai berakhirnya penjelajahan tanpa tujuan Mark an end to aimless roaming Dengan pisau dua sisi With a double-sided knife Mengambil langkah menuju satu sama lain Taking steps towards each other Kita bisa mengakhiri hidup kita berdua We could end both our lives (Dan itu akan baik-baik saja) (And that'd be fine) Arahkan panah tertajammu ke tengah dadaku Aim your sharpest arrow at the center of my chest Sebuah peringatan untuk menandakan rasa ketidakberdayaan A memorial to signify the sense of helplessness Kita tidak berani meratapi kehidupan masa lalu kita, kehilangan kita akan terlahir kembali We dare not mourn our past lives our loss will be reborn Aku tidak bisa mencintai siapa dirimu yang dulu, tapi kamu bukan dirimu lagi I couldn't love who you were but you're not you anymore

[@TheCitizenErazed]

This video, combined to recent events, made me stop smoking weed after 4 years of daily use. It made me realize that I was actually in the 3rd stage of addiction: abuse. That moment when the character took 3 pills at once and expected another moment of bliss but all he experienced was suffering, powerless, I was literally letting myself drown and stabbed by this women who represents the drugs effect. Now I am one week drug free, it is just the beginning of the fight but this video still gives me hope for the future. Thank you Counterparts for this masterpiece.

[@w328x]

Lol

[@xwastedarrows]

Proud of you and your strength bro, I hope that today (after three years of your comment) things are much better in your perception of living one day at a time.

[@TheCitizenErazed]

@@xwastedarrows relapsed miserably not long after the first comment lol. I wasn't ready for the withdrawal. But now I am finally, it's been 2 months clean already. I came back to this video on the first week of quitting, saw this comment.. felt an overwhelming guilt but that made me realize I had to keep going on this time.. the last years seemed like running in circles, wasting my young years I will never get back. At least I will cherish all the time I have left and appreciate to listen and sing Counterparts songs with a vivid mind ✨

[@tianwatskree]

Of of those bands that i'm greatful for. Worship sound.

[@yarp577]

This video gives me chills every time I watch it.

[@crispychoppa1607]

This is fucking art. Everything from the music to the production to the cinematography of the video. A masterpiece

[@sergiolopez3965]

I can hear Misery Signals in every Counterparts song.

[@hybridEP3]

Just counterparts do it better. Misery signals is still unreal tho.

[@d1sm0]

the love for something, may it be human or etc...if you dont have a hold on your self. it will rip you apart. love is a powerful thing. no matter what it may be.

This song will always be remembered.

[@kingofwandering481]

I remember seeing these guys for the first time in Nov 2013 right before they released Witness as a single for TDBHAH. Since then, this band simply doesn't know how to create a bad song. Counterparts is one of the few bands that I will always support to the end because I know that their music is real and genuinely makes me feel something

[@mattoltman92653]

This is the song that makes me miss her so much more than I ever thought I would...

[@baverfjant]

This is a great band. And these are some great actors.

[@antonsanchez2530]

one of the best albums to come out in 2017

[@Coheed420]

I see Counterparts is still the one saving grace of a dying genre. Love em

[@crispychoppa1607]

I come back to this video a few times a month. The feeling the video captures is absolutely nuts. Who ever directed this is a genius

[@captaincrunch1051]
