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 !

I recently lost someone! someone that taught me how to stay strong in adversity! someone who taught me to go on in life no matter what the situation! someone who taught me to fight against all odds and overcome depression! someone who taught me that no matter how bad it gets, life still goes on! His name was CHESTER BENNINGTON!!!

High On Nymphetamine I didn’t even have that at one point. Klonipin took that part of my brain and completely shut it down. I had absolutely no joy. But I found my way back very slowly

[@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.

My cousin. He was my childhood best friend and when we grew up we were still best friends. He was at my house every weekend for days at a time. We were remodeling and he cut the glass for my cabinet doors. We celebrated my birthday March 21 2006. The following Wednesday or Thursday, its blurry, my Mamaw got a call. We were walking to her porch and she said the words that forever changed my life. Brent hung himself. I screamed as I hit the ground. I was screaming buts he's OK right!? No he's gone. I blacked out screaming with my face in the dirt. The following weeks are a blur. We never even knew he was depressed. We never even knew. Brent, I love you and miss you so much. We will meet again.

For everyone suffering from depression, I found my fix by praying to God to enter my heart! I believed in Him and now try to live for him,. Depression has diminished greatly and I feel like I have a purpose. It is the only cure that I know of. Thanks.

[@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!

[@RedSunRisingBand]

Sonny 6String Thank You for sharing

[@Iluvpie6]

There’s something so bitter to me whenever people pull out the “think about all the people you would be leaving behind and how bad they would feel from your selfish act” argument. It’s a guilt trip, and it seems like the worst thing you can do to someone who is depressed and struggling is heap guilt and blame onto their heads. That’s why I like messages like this that are geared more towards hope and the ability to move forward. Depression isn’t about the people around the depressed person, it’s about them. They’re the ones who need support. It’s only when they don’t get that support that it becomes a problem for the people around them.

[@RedSunRisingBand]

Iluvpie6 thank you for sharing

[@inventorcreator7267]

Exactly! Well said!!

[@jadedangel7058]

I disagree to the last line.. it's always a problem for family and friends of someone depressed and or suicidal or both.. we all fight with what we have inside of us for ourselves or someone we love and those that don't aren't truly anyone that matters because depression is a heavy thing to fight through with family and friends but without them even that much worse and it is not a them or us thing we are all in this world together and should fight for each other the same way as we love or care! I don't need to hear goodbye but I would need to say it and that is just for me not for them.

[@inventorcreator7267]

Jaded Angel -Jaded Angel- so right!! Saying goodbye isn’t always about anyone else or “them.” The depth of being in that place is something people don’t understand. You realize who really cares about you when you need to say goodbye, and who wants to “understand” why you’re wanting to. It’s not about any intervention or any pats on the shoulder. When you got that moment of surrender you better have some “real” people around you. And it’s a scarce world.....despite how many go through all the same.

[@Alicesux13]

Iluvpie6 my reply goes like this... I was left behind and i tried everything to end it n no matter what im still here. Someone willing to do it is suffering n sick. Theres no way anyone would do it to hurt the loved ones. Im a surviver and im thankful because my boys would be lost without both of us....

[@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]

But we must carry on and show love and kindness to everyone. For we dont know battles they are facing .♡

[@andyb7738]

I attempted to take my own life around ten years ago. Though things are much better now, it's something that never really goes away. Those thoughts are always lingering away in the back of my mind, and it's something I constantly have to be mindful of. What really got me through it, and what continues to get me through the hard times is music. It's one of the only things that can evoke emotions in me, and it's my constant source of therapy. Great song, and a subject that needs much more coverage.

[@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 ✊

[@Wawajohns]

Red Sun Rising, I want you guys to know your song is helping me through a really dark time right now.

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.

[@nvzblgrrl]

About thirteen years ago, I had this friend. Brilliant kid, loved drawing and designing engines, talked about his mom all the time (he'd been a foster kid for a while, but near as I could figure he still had contact with her in some capacity), bit of an odd-ball with a tendency to get into the most ridiculous kind of trouble like accidentally stabbing himself with a pencil when he tried to annoy someone with the eraser end he'd just licked. He was bullied in school a lot for his engine obsession and a verbal tic he had that ended up becoming something of a meme at our school, which was probably why we were friends - really, making friends with the other outsider kids was pretty much the only reason why I had friends in school. But after a while, he just abruptly stopped coming to school. I'd had a lot of stuff going on myself at the time and I'd made the assumption that his mom had finally gotten her shit together enough that he could go back and live with her. It took two years and a high school rally about suicide and bullying for someone to tell me that he'd killed himself at his foster parents' house. I've blamed myself a lot since - for not noticing the demons he was constantly fighting, for not doing anything to help him before he died, for not being a good enough friend to pull him back from the edge. But I finally came to the realization that blaming myself for something I could have done different during a long-gone time when I'd been fighting to keep my own head above water that might not have made any difference at all wasn't helping anyone; it wasn't helping my mental health and it certainly wasn't going to do anything for him. It's still hard to think about and I wish that someone, anyone could have helped him. I've had a few suicides and premature deaths in my life, in my family and outside of it. My friend's was just the one that hit me the hardest. There will always be regrets there for me about things I could have or should have done and as I get older, I get more and more aware of how young he was when he made that decision to end it. But I suppose really the best I can do now is try to carry on.

[@TSSuppository]

My Uncle Paul was, for so many years, my best friend - we laughed together, we cried together, we struggled together and we fought together, but in the end it was all too much for him. He made the decision to decide his own time to pass into the next Realm. Everyone was distraught, angry, disappointed, upset, furious with him. But I felt nothing but sadness and empathy. The note he left was addressed to me - I keep it and treasure it, even though it is oddly impersonal, a catalogue of things that need to be resolved and a statement of apology. They were his final thoughts, and he thought to leave them to my care, and mine alone. It scarred me, but it also made me stronger. There is not a day that goes by that I don't regret the way things transpired. I wish I had realised how bad things were; I wish that I had noticed the warning signs; I wish that he were still here so that we could laugh and cry together like we used to. But it has been 12 years. 12 years and I miss him every single day. To anyone who's still reading, to anyone who still cares, s**cide is not the answer. People love you. People need you. People can only be who they are when you are a part of them. No matter how hopeless things may seem, you are loved. In the very worst of times, someone will take you in, care for you, give you what you need, comfort you, nurture you, give back to you all the good things that you have given to them. I can't begin to express the emptiness, the sadness that a person's loss is to those who love them the most. Thank you, Red Sun Rising, for this song. It means the world to me, it truly does. It is beautiful and haunting and perfect in every conceivable way. The lyrics cut me to my very bones, but they mean so very much to me. A truly beautiful ballad. xx

I was lucky to see these guys live (absolutely incredible. GO if you haven't!!). I am so grateful for them and others like them, spreading a message of how serious mental health is and to talk about it, seek help and to be ok with being vulnerable. Mike, Ricky, Ryan, Dave and Pat, Thank you! I'll be seeing you again.

I was at the breaking point a couple months ago and was set on ending it but with my family and Dr's I am now stable and actually happy for the first time in my adult life!!! It does get better!!! Its worth sticking around for!!!

[@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

[@josephdelpilar40]

this means alot... and the vocals proved it

[@Abraun897]

Powerful message, just found you guys on spotify this week and can't stop listening, as a singer and guitarist myself I was worried about where music was going and then I heard this song before checking out everything on your albums and man, catchy as hell melodies, clever lyrics, powerful guitar playing a singer who sounds like Dexter from offspring fused with Layne Staley. Can't wait to see where you guys go from here, thanks for inspiring.

[@RedSunRisingBand]

Adam Braunstein wow thank you man. We appreciate you appreciating what what we do. Cheers!

[@MrCool-ye3wg]

I LOOOOOVE this song!!! My favorite from the new album!!

[@TheMonsterHunterTV]

Come to Germany once more. Saw you guys at Rock im Park. I was absolutely flashed to see such quality music at the smallest stage EDIT: I also first recognized Hollywood Undead and Volbeat on these small stages and they are pretty big in the game today. So keep up with the good work. I hope so much it will pay off for you

[@zacharyrizzo3952]

Very unique video by them. Very good message

[@gmgoodman9488]

How does this song only have 327k plays. This song is epic and very well written. . . The Violent or RSR are great band.

[@johannesdatblue4164]

Nice message. I appreciate it. Take care Ladies and Gentlemen!

[@yiyoide]

Sufrí un Accidente hace 2 años, en el que casi pierdo la vida, desde ese momento sentí que el mundo se acababa para mi, perdí parte de mis órganos estuve meses internado y postrado en una cama haciendo tratamientos, sientiendo tanto dolor que solo me daba ganas de morir, pero ver a mi gente luchando por mi me devolvió la esperanza y aun me falta una operación para quedar bien. Y en todo ese momento quiero decir que esta canción me acompañó y me motivó..

[@dossman6]

Brad Delp from Bostom would love these guys. RIP Brad

[@kalebdombeck2108]

This video provides a perfect message to those in need. This band is going places, and inspiring others to follow them. Very well done boys, keep rocking❤️

[@stevenwatson8295]

Met these guys in person. They're nice people. They seem. Shook their hands.

[@fedecamusso]

SUCH A DEEP SONG... I LOOOOVE IT.

[@ChimeStone]

Please come to sacramento. Also this song is beautiful. Gives me feels

[@donnagibb871]

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.

[@donnagibb871]

Very sadly, I was evacuated this morning by FPD...the guy that lived in the apt right next to mine killed himself. Crazy shit going on right now. 2 people that I know committed suicide in a week.

[@bbtiffy]

So much love and respect for the band to contribute to the meaningful cause while creating amazing music. Please keep it up!
