My mom just passed on April 1st. We shared a love for almost all music but we truelly loved shinedown. We would workout to it. Crank it up in the car. A few months before she died We were on our way to a Dr. App and I was playing them. She said I raised you right boy. She would have loved this album so much. Miss her so much. Thanks guys. I'll love it for both of us.

I feel this way too much man. I lost mine 3 years ago and If it’s any consolation, it makes you immensely stronger. That’s all she wants for you and Shinedown may be one of the finest examples of a band that makes you that way. I’m so sorry for your loss but know she’ll always be there. Much love

I have experience in "behavioral Health care" as an RN. started reading the Bible and different versions for the past 3+ years. I lost faith in pills and hospitals and the 'system' which created 'forced' or 'involuntary' hospitalizations. I still screw up and a 'sinner' per the world view, but Everyday I try to read Scripture and listen to rock/metal songs like this one. there are so many rock bands today that inspire through the lyrics or words inspired faithfully with Gods Spirit freely working small miracles daily. The path to truth and healing is not found written on a prescription pad, restraints, injections given under corporate for profit health care systems.

[@davinamundy9877]

My son is a recovering meth addict. We went through hell and back. We both love Shinedown. This album just like all the rest speaks to me and to him as well. He’s been in recovery for 6 years. He’s married has children and is doing well. You can do it! If you are an addict you are loved and prayed for I know this because I pray daily for you and your family. Especially your momma’s. If you need it get help, do the hard work! You are worth it!! You are needed!

Wow, this feels like the relationship between my boyfriend and I. I'm the awkward woman and weirdo in groups. I never fit in with large groups, never been socially accepted, and dismissed by society. All I've ever done is carry my baggage with me...with everything on fire around me. Then I found someone who understood that. All he's done is support me mentally when nobody else did. He has the same issues that I do. I'm forever grateful that he brought this band back to me. I love him more than anyone else I've ever met.

This is honestly their best album since Amaryllis. I know a lot of people didn't care for Amaryllis during the time the album came out, but during that time the person I loved and trusted more than anyone left us. Alone with my 4 and 2 year old children, Amaryllis helped me through it all, many tears during many sleepless nights, trying desperately to keep my kids from seeing their dad unraveled. I'm better now, it's just me and them, 14 and 12, but wow this song right here brings a lot of those feelings back, and that's okay. Shinedown has been there seemingly through so many emotional ups and downs. Heck my daughter's first favorite song was Second Chance, at 2 years old, she'd be belting it out. Through my denial, my sadness, my hate, my acceptance, and finally contentment, I feel so lucky to have a band like this around.

[@twystydwhyspyr88]

This song describes me growing up. I never fit in with any crowd, sure I had friends, but even then I walked to my own tune, had different interests, and if we did have the same I took that love and passion to different levels than they did. I'm a mom to an autistic daughter, and somedays it feels like this raising her and helping her learn to navigate the world and teaching her to care for herself because I know I can't always be here for her.

[@Jay-nq7fn]

I find myself listening to this over and over as someone who is dealing with depression i've always been awkward and weird grew up mostly in special education classes all through school got picked on and bullied in elem and jr. High school wasnt as bad and had some friends but I still walked to my own tune and now at 43 i live alone I have never been married,no kids. Had a few relationships but not many long term. At 43 I dont think I have ever been in love before I think I would know if i had. As I get older my parents get older, my grandparents are in their upper 80s almost into the 90's neither of them will be here forever and I keep to myself in this apartment scared of what my life will be like after they are all gone and I'm left alone. Just passing through life like a passenger on a ship of fools. Sorry for the ramble but I believe this song speaks out to so many people in so many different ways. The lost, the lonely, those who beat to a different drum and trying to find a sense of purpose of existence and belonging and wonder.

Lauren, Diamond, Mom, Steven, Ashley, Huntersville and so many more of us. That gives no one the right to abuse others. Lessons in life

[@carawhite8504]

My whole life in one song! It’s amazing how many of us there are! ❤ Today is my birthday and I am so sad and lost in the world!

[@amandaharley2134]

Hello Amanda..

[@divinetimingMi]

My daughter just seen them in Grand Rapids and sent this to me. I love how our love for music and showing her, being human is all about this beautiful experience 🦋

[@causal_internetuser]

" this all seems so familiar, but it doesn't feel like home. It's just another unknown." My parents just divorced, so these lines hit real hard😥

Dealing with the suicide of my 22 year old son, Nick. Stay alive, much love.

[@Funnyman14236]

I’m sorry for your lose nick is looking over you and so is god

[@Joecitizen-l7f]

Listening to this shit ain't healthy grieving

[@kyletoomey4980]

I’m sorry, to hear about you Son is awful. It’s a pain I never wanna know and I don’t wish upon a single person. Especially the pain of a suicide.. I overdosed years ago and had to tell my parents Christmas Day because that’s when got out of the ER. The way they broke down and the way my mother cried and their hugs. I never want to see that on them again. That pain was unimaginable and I was still alive to tell them about it few days after I was okay. I can’t imagine what would’ve been the case to have them get told on the day of or 2 days before Christmas they lost their child. It breaks my heart that people feel that way because I felt that way and tried.. I was given a second chance and if it means anything I always have said i was given a second chance that others didn’t get to have at life and we lost a beautiful soul because of it so I will use my chance I got fully and love my life sober and happy and with family and friends who love me. I miss my friends who didn’t make it out too so I live for them and every lost soul to try to(in my own way) honor them because they never could do things I am now. So every hike. Trip to a new place or thing I do for fun and things I’ve never done and am trying, are for your son! I’ll keep him in mind when I travel and adventure. May he rest in peace my friend. I am truly sorry

I've been getting chill bumps from Brent's voice since 2003 and I'm proud to say that still to this day, (almost 20 years later 🤯) his vocals have the same effect on me 🖤❤️🖤🤘

[@timwiseman2687]

Such a really unique and thoughtful way to relate to his love that they're both equal and together they equal ONE!!!

[@sherryjohnson2204]

Thankful for your music. Not sure I could get thru this grief without it. Lost hubby September 20 n now nothing is right no matter what I do.

[@user-hg9jj6tk2w]

Every single time this song comes on the radio my 8 year old sings it word for word.

[@fujiamo4Life]

This song is perfect, and fits my life to a tee. Insanity is a hard habit for me to break, when it so normal to accept. Your catalog of music is a soundtrack to my life and sure many others. Thank you for everything you saved me from, and never stop being the music that makes us feel

[@bentaylor8046]

Losing someone very close due to liver failure. Thankfully there are bands like Shinedown who care about people who suffer from depression and substance abuse. Definitely touched my life.

[@Wokeup1984]

How is it possible to love Shinedown any more than I have since day 1?!!!! I can really relate to this one. See you guys again in September! 💗

[@seth1184]

Thank you Shinedown for creating a song to help remind me what I'm going through in this life. And its part of process to where I'm headed.

[@HolyMarkMcGrath]

In all the years I’ve been listening to Shinedown, I feel like they take mental health seriously with all of their songs. Started listening to them with the song “Second Chance”. Now, I just discover this beauty today. Would definitely consider these guys a saving grace for anyone who is struggling. It takes a lot for me to say that and I’m thirty. I’ve been through plenty of issues. But, I give credit to these guys for helping me through them. #Shinedowncansaveyouwhenyoufeelthatyoucant

[@HostileRepublic]

As some who is a diagnosed schizophrenic, every song of theirs I’ve heard is spoken to me, every time I hear this song I get goosebumps.

[@Upgra4e]

Wow the power behind Brent’s voice and the power within this song 2nd time I’ve cried because of this album it’s so moving I love these guys they never disappoint!!

[@aliciahedlesky4489]

My brother (in-law) decided to stop living on October 30th 2023 the day before his brother and my wedding anniversary. Luke was the in-law I felt closest to in my husband's large family and collection of siblings, we loved the same music types and had similar anxieties and animal love. He was my husband's best friend and they one we went to for help. The first uncle his niece and nephew could reconize and point at and say "that's uncle Wook" and the one they'd get excited to have over. He was a vetran having served 2 tours in Iraq, a dad to a teenage son and so much more. This song always makes me think of our Luke.

[@susanpeacock216]

Such good song writers ❤️

[@timmyisababe25]

I usually only like rap music but this song is different I really like it for some reason.

[@Flynfish777crew]

“Shinedown has become 1 of the (G.O.A.T.) groups on the Planet” When they 1st started touring my Dad got to follow their tour bus back to Jacksonville in his Semi. They talked back and forth on the CB to stay awake. My Dad came onto DeLand, Fl. where we live. He was excited about it.

[@bdawnbivinsable]

Since losing my son, I listen to his favorite groups. This song would've really hit home with him! He stayed depressed and felt like an outcast alot! He would've loved this song! I do!!!

[@favor499]

Emotional song. It helps me to move on

[@glennmassanova5671]

I will say one of the best songs on the album. Amazing is all I can say

[@borkthedestroyer_3250]

This is probably the most relatable song I've heard in a long time

[@Blackjack_Poison]

"Sometimes I'm in a room where I don't belong and the house is on fire and there's no alarm" That hits harder than it should.

[@7guitarlover]

Symptoms of being Human =) > age - 45 , Diamond Eyes , Weird State of head , Not special , Simple man , breaking Inside , sometimes hears sounds (of madness) , feels like a monster , wishing for a second chance , Hoping someone will Call me , Thinks of cutting the chord yet Gets Up and moves on . Fights bullies and enemies and begins again. Knowing life is beautiful like Amaryllis , Crow and the butterfly .

[@glytchthefox]

Makes me really think about what i deal with my family, always having different opinions from them… It hits hard
