WELCOME to the Social D family bro!!! 25+ years of listening to them now!

[@ChrisinEC]

This is the most therapeutic song I've ever heard......

[@landy952]

Welcome to the family keep listening. Try winners and losers

[@catemcmillian6622]

Mikes voice is powerful. This song gets me every time 🥹

[@rochelleveluz6771]

I have loved Social D since I was a teenager. They have songs that match every moment of life... This song has gotten me through some rough parts, my Alcoholism, heartache, and pain, the many times getting clean, off Herion... Today is my 30 days clean from Herion... This is my last time trying... Angels wings gonna carry us away...

@@rochelleveluz6771 A dear friend of mine passed away from a heroin relapse. He wasn't as tolerant as he had been before and his usual dose killed him. You are inherently valuable, even if you don't always see it or know it. We all belong here and to each other and anyone who tells us differently, it's because they don't think they belong either. Peace be with you.

[@rochelleveluz6771]

@@WebsterPublicLibrary thank you so much for your kind words. I appreciate it greatly. I'm sorry for your loss. All the times I've tried to get clean off Heroin, I failed. Because I couldn't deal with what I've carried deep inside, all those emotions, traumas, haunted me, even in my sleep. I've had 2 moments where one foot was here and one in the spirit, from Herion, being cut with fentanyl... I do know what your friend went through. Webster Public Library, this is my last time, I promised my daughter, and my son, that I will stop, so we can begin to heal... I hope you a blessed day, take care always...

I thought I was a big social d fan but I think I just heard this for the first time last night and I cannot stop listening to this, have you ever heard a song that hits you right in the gut and speaks to you in a magical way?

Been a fan of SD for decades, this is one of my favorite songs, gotten me through a lot of rough times. Love this acoustic version. Really shows the depths of the song. Would love to pick Mike's brain given the chance.

[@noahfecks3381]

i love this song, but a buddy told me this song is about suicide, but fuck, mike ness makes suicide songs sound beautiful still.

[@Mooman-vh6pq]

This band has seen me threw some hard times. Mike Ness is and always will be one of the best song writers out. Period

[@landy952]

Oh man me too. As in walking alone crying down the streets alone in a foreign country after a breakup soothed by these lyrics. No other band has held me through the dark times like that…

[@RichardDayGore]

Amen, his lyrics and sincere delivery have propped me up through many a hard time. Hope you're doing well.

[@starshipboy2010]

I lost my sister recently, she chose to take her own life. It’s been really hard to deal. From watching my parents fall apart and pick themselves back up. To cousins and aunties who’s hugs are both healing and hurtful as I’ll always feel like something is missing. I’m trying to remain strong for my family, but later today we’ll be saying our final goodbyes and letting her body go. I’ve dreaded this day all week. We played this song at her service, it was beautiful the sun was out it was warm, a gentle breeze and many fine clouds felt like a touch on the shoulder. The birds a reminder to sing even when all hope seems to have dispersed. This song will mean more to me now than ever. Her name was Courtney Heather Little, she was 34 years young. She taught me more about how to be a man than any man ever did for me growing up. I love you sister, until the sun runs out ♾️. She loved concerts and she loved social distortion. Please tell those closest to you that you love them, hug them, and cherish this life ❤️‍🩹
