My best friend had been in a bad accident with his work truck n comatose for 3 weeks, he's awake and in rehab now. Not able to talk because of a traech, but we played this song for him and he calmed right down and mouthed the words! A break through! He even was so calmed by it he fell asleep. Music you love never gets forgotten. Thanks to Serj Tankian and System, and even Scars on Broadway, he mouthed whole song of they say TOO! Progress we've yet to see. And thanks to his love of this music and ours, he remembers it totally. 2 weeks ago we didn't think he'd wake up. And then this! Awesome! Thank you!

Yesterday, I saw a picture of two Palestinian babies, one was a toddler and the other an infant. I looked away immediately but it's burned into my mind now.

I feel utterly helpless but I can't fathom what so many must feel like having lost family that way.

[@sveamoomin2987]

It's eerie how relevant his music still is. Honestly more should listen to this. I am not sure what helps... and if this even stands chance of making a difference. But many of his songs, like Borders are, Empty Walls, Harakiri... all are soo right when it comes to the current state of the world... maybe share them with your friends, who also like his music... or would like it. Explain how it makes you feel. One doesn't have to be a revolutionary to change stuff... and one doesn't have to bear the weight of the entire world to not feel helpless

I first discovered this song at school on spotify. I'm a huge fan of System Of A Down, and I wanted to see some of Serj's songs and albums, along with albums from Daron Malakian's band. This song is one of my favorites, not just from Serj, but of all time. I love the song, and also the message behind it. It's nice Serj hides messages like this in all of his songs. Also, I love this music video, it's so deep and it screams WAR.

It's kind of funny cuz it's a paradox that we raise American children to be prepared for war.

[@joeb6137]

What a great song to describe the situation going on now. And with the children playing I see two things. American culture with the distillation of war since the time we were kids, like normalizing death over seas. Or like that these soldiers and people who are being killed were just once kids. It is also like kids could play like this here but in other parts of the world children don't have this play and actually live in fear 24/7. Anyway showing innocence to discuss a not innocent topic is pretty moving.

if those kids were that age when 9/11 happened they would have been in combat by the time this song came out, which is one of many reasons he used this decisions....and from behind those empty walls has many meanings but in the video the daycare has full height windows (empty walls) so he wants you to see what its like from inside that daycare looking at the funeral and he also wants you to BE LEFT in that daycare

Lyrics: Your empty walls, Your empty walls, Pretentious adventures, Dismissive apprehension, Don't waste your time, On coffins today, When we decline, From the confines of our mind, Don't waste your time, On coffins today... Don't you see their bodies burning? Desolate and full of yearning, Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication, Don't you see their bodies burning? Desolate and full of yearning, Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication, I want you to be left behind those empty walls, Told you to see from behind those empty walls... Those empty walls, When we decline, From the confines of our mind, Don't waste your time, On coffins today... Don't you see their bodies burning? Desolate and full of yearning, Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication, Don't you see their bodies burning? Desolate and full of yearning, Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication, I want you to be left behind those empty walls, Told you to see from behind those empty walls, Want you to be left behind those empty walls, I told you to see from behind those empty walls, From behind those empty walls, From behind those empty walls, The walls! From behind those empty walls... I loved you yesterday, (From behind those empty walls...) Before you killed my family, (From behind those empty walls, the walls...) Don't you see their bodies burning? Desolate and full of yearning, Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication, Don't you see their bodies burning, Desolate and full of yearning, (I want you...) Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication, (To be left behind those empty...) I want you to be left behind those empty walls, Told you to see from behind those empty walls, (Desolate and full of yearning, Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication...) Want you to be left behind those empty walls, (Don't you see their bodies burning? Desolate and full of yearning, Dying of anticipation, Choking from intoxication...) I told you to see from behind those empty walls, (Trust your empty walls, trust your empty walls) From behind those empty walls, (Trust your empty walls, trust your empty walls) From behind those empty walls, (Trust your empty walls, trust your empty walls) From behind those empty walls, Those walls! Those walls!

Thanks lyrics guy.

Fun fact Serj curses in the actual song

[@Joshua-Jararuse]

Singing the song when no one is around and almost getting it down now, I remember the days when I had a SOAD CD and for hours just laying around trying to sing the lyrics of every song from this band.

*Taunt you to see…

[@_AndromedaGalaxy_]

i thought he was saying "fuck you uncle!" at the end in reference to Uncle Sam the US Government.

[@ainobredtved3132]

I still love this song. Serj is always amazing ❤

[@gmutu2001]

As a veteran, Ty for showing this. The difference between private life and military life.

[@MrNewsaboutblackops2]

I understand that this is supposed to be deep and stuff but I really wanna be one of the kids there, they look like they are having a fucking blast

[@ryandunahoo4245]

I always wanted to be the one that kicked down that door.

[@MrNewsaboutblackops2]

I always wanted to BE EVERY FUCKING KID

[@milesrees5747]

I do think that part of the reason that hes using kids is because the situation in some ways is very childish however i do agree I would want to be one of them.

[@MrNewsaboutblackops2]

So long story short without trying to sound smart.......... You agree, could have just liked the comment

[@jovialgiblets4465]

I disagree with your comment and I think that you are hitler also a shit.

0:52 his voice 😍😍

[@itsjustme4936]

First time I ever saw this astonishing soul I was about 6 years old I was just mesmerized by him as I grew I started to understand his music and what it means and everything that I have learned from this beautiful man, I actually fell in love with him, im 21 now and to this day I still think there are no words to express the way I idolize him

[@AHzMn]

Lot of meanings. Please people. Can we just live peacefully. 2019 and counting. Love, Unite, Respect!

[@mattshearer89]

Yeah dude! It's almost been 5000 years since there's been no war going on somewhere in the world 😢
