Red Sun Rising - Stealing Life

[@raveNnite136]

After 2 failed attempts my life was a mess , saw stuff no child should ever see... felt unloved and truly broken then one day I got married, had my daughter and the feeling of having her in my womb and I swear that gave me the hope and faith that I needed... Find something that gives you drive and hope I swear it gets better maybe the scars will still be there and they may ache .. But remember who you are and know your worth because you sure as hell are worth it !

Nothing drives a person more insane than constant pain..and depression can manifest physically. Time does not heal all wounds might make it easier but its still there.

[@noontide1209]

I talked to a friend just the day before he took his own life. I asked him how he was. He said he was okay, but he wasnt a good liar. I decided not to press for a real answer because we hadn't known each other long. But I gave him a donut I was carrying and told him to have a good day. I didnt know what had happened until the next morning. It ate me alive knowing that my act of kindness didnt keep his darkness at bay. Made worse by the fact that he didnt leave a note. No one will know what his pain was... and by extension we wont ever know what we could have done to help.

[@RedSunRisingBand]

NOONTIDE so very sorry for your loss.... thank you for sharing. And don’t ever blame yourself. ✌🏼

[@SyTheMetalhead]

Genuinely One of the most powerful, and moving pieces of music I have ever heard. I hope that this song touches those who are contemplating suicide, and it makes them realize that there is hope after all. As someone personally affected by suicide this song brought a tear to my eye. Thank you RSR

Just want to let you guys know, because of music, when I was 23, I had had an awful breakup and thought my father did not like me as a person because of my failures in life, that I did not commit suicide and later went to a religion for a while. Music saved my life.

[@RedSunRisingBand]

James Popek thanks for sharing this James. Powerful stuff.

[@sonny6string822]

I stumbled onto this video and after reading some of the comments realized that we all need hope. I too once thought the unthinkable, but I sought help from a social worker and she explained to me that we tend to over generalize and think things like everyone is thinking badly about me, or I don't matter, or people would be better off without me being around, ect. Well my friend this is a lie and once we realize this we can conquer these demons that want to destroy us. Sure some will think what they will about us and the rest our mind creates. Well not everyone is thinking badly about you, there's many who love you greatly, but knowing the ploy of the enemy makes it easy to defeat him. When dark thoughts come remember you can conquer them, don't allow yourself to over generalize, take the victory over the darkness. You are loved!

I just wanted to say I'm so sorry for your lost,; I have been introduced to you're music just recently,( Thank my lucky stars, because there is no great music up here, WI. Rapids, I am from Milwaukee) I have been suffering with clinical depression w/suisidle tendencies for 20+ yrs, I have tried everything from A-Z, meds, counseling ... Music is my saver, band's like yours are finally addressing this, with truefull lyrics, heartfelt meaning"s and things that need to be said,Layne,Scott,, Chris and Chester were lyrically genius and they will be sincerely missed, when you listen to ( just about every painstakingly moving song by these great artist's, you can hear, hopeless, broken heart's,,, but I truly understand the darkness,even when lights are on I'm in the black no light shine's in my head, I'm in a hole, but I've stopped digging n can't get out.NO explaining,or even a deserving blurry vision of WHY!!,D Some people are just this way. But I keep getting up every day and wonder why I'm still here??? Sorry for rambling on, these are just my feeling's Please kindly keep it up, your message of music helps me to live every day.

[@stefanieschmidt9002]

It took me some time. But when my beloved and (to me) invicible dad commited suicide, I understood - although I cried my heart and soul out from the moment I was told on and never stopped deep down insinde of me since then - that he had been in such a darkdark place for a while, that he couldn't help himself but end it himself. My mom, my sis and me know it in our hearts, that he has always loved us deep and dearly and that hurting us was never on his mind. But when he went to that bridge that day with a rope, there was nothing left but that cruel disease depression. It is such a burden to bear for me, for us, since then. I never knew he had depression. So what burden it was to bear for him, I will never know either. But I descided for myself (without seeing any therapist) , to respect his descision. It is an honour, to be his daughter. My hope is to have filled our years toghether with love and laughter. I know, I've been filling it with quarrel and unnecessairy fights as well. But I love him. And I know, he loved me. So what remains, my dear friends...is love. And respect. He made his decision. And this decision was made, because he was ill and he suffered. If he'd seen any chance, he'd stayed with the ones he loved most. Depression is a cruel and brutal illness. And it leaves so many of us behind with the neverending question, Why. We all should be aware, if or why our loved ones suffer. Don't look at your mobile - look into the face of the one that you love. Thank you for that song. It made me write down something, I should say and will say loudely more often.

[@RedSunRisingBand]

Thank you so much for listening and sharing this. So sorry for your loss

Indeed it is. I am sorry for your loss♡ we must stay strong and love one another. My sister this past December (almost a year) has skitzophernia/huntington's disease.. And was depressed and lost. We all knew one day we would hear bad news. Until it happened.....reality hit. She hung from a tree in a park . ♡ I know and understand what people are feeling. It's a dark sad place. But we must carry on and show love and kindness to everyone. For we dont know battles they are facing .♡

Life is the ultimate of adventure and mystery. As hopeless as it seems now, those fortunes can quickly turn, have a respect and wonder for it and never assume to know what lays around its corner. And let honesty guide the way to better pastures, it worked fine me.

[@JerKur18]

When you're dealing with depression, you know you're not the only one going through what you're going through, but the stigma around depression and the daunting task of finding others like you eventually wears you down to feeling like suicide is the easiest choice and only course of action to end your pain. It's terrible, but some people lose the struggle. Please seek help if you're having suicidal thoughts. You're more precious than you know. Stay strong ✊

[@nickstockwell9305]

What a POWERFUL song.....hits close to home. Suicide is a topic that's hidden more than it should be unfortunately. It's spoken about too much after someone has succome to it..... people say they wish they could've done more etc..... you can. Be there for someone, don't give up, listen to a strangers story, love someone a little more with each hug because gone is not forgotten.....gone is also forever

[@markwatson3248]

I've been very fortunate for never losing a friend to suicide, but if I did i dont think I'd be the same. Great song, great message, great band.

[@kjlamar2170]

Great song! Has some tears flowing. I suffer from PTSD due to things that happened in my childhood. Every day I wish that I didn't have to deal with it. The anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts. Many times I stood at the edge of a bridge, ready to take that final step. Many times have I thought of stepping in front of a moving vehicle. So many times have I prayed to not wake up. Yet, I am still here. When asked how I have made it this far, I say that I hate to lose. If I take my life, I lose. I also have two daughters, even though their mother keeps them from me, they keep me going. I have been to the depths of hell, sometimes, I still go back. But hating to lose and my two beautiful daughters pulls me out of those depths.

[@ilovejesus4evr]

Unfortunately, this song has much meaning to me. I've lost a friend, nephew, and cousin due to suicide. I write music also and my fellow bandmates and I made a decision to only write songs that were uplifting to the soul and not the trash that so frequents our airwaves anymore. This song here, having more meaning to those left behind, yet tends to throw the guilt at the one already depressed. I would think anyone listening that was already thinking about suicide would not benefit from being sent on a guilt trip for thinking about it! IMO I applaud this group for bringing attention to such a devastating, all too often, occurrence in our society. In my experience, nothing we said or did made a difference in the end. The "too far gone" lyrics seem appropriate and the most accurate.

I have always loved this song as it calms my own suicidal thoughts. Today I was at a funeral for a friend who killed himself. It breaks my heart, & I love these guys for this song. Suicide is the result of mental illness & depression. I don't think there is a single person that can say they don't know someone that is affected by this. It's serious, & we all need to support each other to survive it.
