Therapist Reacts to The Kill by 30 Seconds to Mars

Therapist analyzes the lyrics and music video of The Kill by 30 Seconds To Mars to discuss the desire to "bury" or destroy the parts of ourselves that we don't like. Instead, we can use the lyrics as a call to "break down" those painful parts to try to understand them and then bury them in the dirt like we would a seed as a way to integrate and grow.

I can't hear this song without running the Chad Smith's Drumeo video because it's SO amazing. Great reaction.

[@HeartSupport]

I loved Chads play through! -The Video Editor

[@KarbonSym]

Will Ferrell killed that Drummer play through

[@user-qw8hi1gr1h]

Dang low self esteem side of me

[@skarlottt]

Omg me too! I can see him just knowing what to do.

[@skarlottt]

​@@KarbonSymlol I had always thought of that. Then, I knew I wasn't the only one

[@aaronramcharan2989]

She became my therapist without me even asking for one.

[@gutSHAW]

I think it's very clear at the end of the video that both personalities are still together meaning that you can't really get rid of your dark side but you can embrace it and use it to become someone better someone stronger

I love the old 30 seconds to Mars. Jared Leto is beautiful

[@MaRoach7]

Agree 💯 He is beautiful

[@soulcry71]

Sooo much talent!

[@Jimbozinya]

This song is so good, say what you will about Jared's acting/movies... the amount of emotion he put into this song's lyrics and singing is beyond amazing.

[@jhamilton1007]

Jared's a great actor. He just has suffered from poor writing. He would have been an excellent Joker with better writing.

[@Jimbozinya]

@@jhamilton1007 completely agree!

[@mylindathurston3410]

@@jhamilton1007 Hell, he did a great acting job as Morbius. That movie just suffered from lazy writing and awful editing.

[@jhamilton1007]

@@mylindathurston3410 I agree.

[@jingo1410]

I think i'd say more about Jared's character than his acting. He's a fine, even good actor. Great vocalist too. But pretty much all I've heard of him from anyone who has met or worked with him, is that hes a pretentious creep

[@brandonx7215]

Video is a Shining movie homage...❤🇨🇦

[@Michael97Moore]

Apparently she didn't see it clearly

[@MacMc691]

First time I saw this dude was in a 90's show called My So Called Life, little did we know, he would get this popular all these years later.

[@jcmullins3871]

I've been battling Parkinson's Disease since 1986, 38 years now. It tell my friends that this is my conversation with parkinsons every day

[@goodpainlive]

What have you done to keep it at bay? My mother was diagnosed with it about six months ago. She is 76. Any help would be appreciated.

[@tbrancs03]

I always thought this song was about getting your heart broken and trying to move on. You’ve opened my eyes

[@arizona71189]

Leto is beyond underrated.

[@Chris-eo9lv]

Not underrated, just thinks he's greater than he is. Their music took a turn when they released Kings and Queens and the 'This is War' album. Had they stayed true to this sound and Jared hadn't gone all "Hollywood" there would be no hate.

[@JMulvy]

I gotta say even as a nu-metal obsessed fan; in the early 2000s, 30 Seconds to Mars was a welcomed and completely unexpected surprise. I friggin, love this band and in my case it especially helps that Jared Leto is the lead vocalist. I have been a huge fan of his since forever. Anyways, the video is based on the events of Stephen King's The Shining.

[@forfuckssake6269]

Their first album was so fucking good, no bad tracks at all

[@gregberkeley3127]

Awesome analysis. Something I'd like to say for the viewers. 3:00-4:05 This is a call to those who struggle in this way. You have to fight. You have to be ready to fight. Don't let the point "where nothing seems to change" stop you. Many have tried and prevailed, because they never lost the fight. From someone that has been there.

[@mffmYT]

Although I collected over 2.500 loved tracks, top songs, by now, this one stands out and always gives me goose bumps, pure energy.

[@TheMoeHawk]

omg I never saw the song this way!! Really shifted my perspective of what the song means. I thought it was about a relationship...

[@folkertwierda449]

Why is this song so relatable for me, i loved the song already but now even more!😫🥰

[@niverrtkb]

This song has been so underrated for years. I feel like people are finally starting to get it. I have so much inner turmoil from years of abuse (sexual, mental, physical) and my mother murdered when I was around 8yrs and the man I thought was my dad murdered yrs later. I dont always know who I am

[@catherinenelson4848]

I can relate.... trauma and moving on living with it. Yeah this young gal .. In a few songs has done more for me than yrs of different therapists 😢

[@manuelagudelo7070]

I just got out of a really really toxic relationship where I used to be the side piece for about 5 years. Got manipulated thousand times. Now I feel that that part of me is dying, I don’t want to be low self esteemed anymore. Just found this and it’s great for this time. Greetings from Venezuela!

[@sanjaythakur2993]

Your reactions and views hits the spot every single time. I really appreciate and enjoy your reactions.

[@JoParry-gr7eh]

Your video found me for a reason. I’ve always loved this song but never really ‘heard’ it before. Struggling with my mental health ATM but this explanation has ignited me to fight out of my darkness. Thank you

[@inyourbunnyhole6652]

God blessed Jered in every way, great actor, great voice, and who hasn't wished to be that beautiful.

[@user-wu5yq8ct6l]

Now I know why I relate to this song so much. 10 years clean and life is so much different than the person I was before.

Its such a complex lyrics, Jared went all in for it like a pro! Sometimes our other selfs are trying to protect us from possible future traumas (anxiety) and it really can bend us to the idea that we don't want to suffer anymore with those warning thoughts, thus shoving your feelings deep down, trying to "kill it", when in reallity we should be understanding all parts of ourselves, the good and the bad ones, so we can grow lighter within dealing with situations that life presents to us 🥰 Great reaction and interpretation of it!

[@moryreyes5902]

And the thing with this song is that u want to leave it on repeat ❤❤❤❤

[@carlnoonan2814]

100%

[@taylorterror2517]

30 seconds to Mars was the first band I ever saw in concert, before they were big. They opened for The Used. I'll never forget it. ❤

[@victormelendez6392]

This song has been one of my absolute favorites for a long time. Thank you

[@holeshot26]

or it's just Jared Leto writing a song about finding his musical calling after being an actor since my so called life in the early 90's! he's F'n amazing & such a humble guy meeting him in person!❤

[@oglp6011]

Hearing you break this down was so therapeutic for me. I’ve been dealing with this my whole life fighting these two different me’s. Now that I know who I am I still struggle at times with this negative voice that still lingers. Thank you so much.

[@eclectic_witch]

This video was after Jared did the movie about John Lennon’s killer and gained a lot of weight. He gained so much weight he wound up with gout and other health issues.

[@CaseyWinehouse]

Not quite. This song came out in 2005, released as a single Jan 2006. Chapter 27 was filmed later in 2006, released in 2007.

[@Intellectual-Warrior9]

I love their song This is War.

[@Requiem4aDr3Am]

I've always loved this song but I had never seen the video before. Amazing that they did this at the same hotel as The Shining and then went with that story for this. This is so good.

[@rockerwithawalker]

Actually it was filmed at The Carlu in Toronto, Canada. But definitely inspired by the Stanley Hotel in Colorado.The movie "The Shining",(Kubrick version), was filmed at Timberline Lodge In Mt. Hood, Oregon. just saying.

[@Requiem4aDr3Am]

@@rockerwithawalker ah cool it looked so similar it got me. Thanks

[@bethscarberry6845]

30stm helped me through a very hard time in life. This song made me release that I need to be myself and f other people. Accepting myself. Thats way i have their icon on my wrist to remind me i can move past. Jared, Tomo, and Shannon are amazing.

[@theuncommonopinion]

I love this song because I relate to it so much. Its been an internal fight from the me before i survived domestic violence.

[@teresagibson4136]

I love this song, I'm genX we were taught to bury it. Put trauma in a box, deal later. So I think they did a great job of expressing it does stay with you. The 3 days becoming a week. Every song they make really speaks to me

[@KarbonSym]

Great reaction. As many times as I’ve heard this song I’ve never seen the video. Loved the mental health breakdown of it, not sure I’ll hear it the same way again, which is a good thing.

Your take on this song is so validating and so inspiring!!! Thank you for having THIS perspective and the voice to share it!!!

[@DGRomeOfficial]

I love your channel and the whole concept of it. Thanks for the work you're doing. I really think music can change lives, not only through listening but using it to channel your emotions/fears/feelings/pain and whatever else we carry.

[@znortbird4716]

U always let me see videos or lyrics in another way. And u always have nice words to give hope ❤ thanks

[@mikeholly8617]

Man I really love your breakdowns. I really wish I can have a session with you. Over the past two months my life has been turned upside down and I’ve been drowning in anxiety and depression. I’ve been waking up anxious every morning and it’s all I think about all day. It’s the worst feeling in the world. I watch your videos all day just listening to you because it’s like I’m having therapy with you without actually meeting you

While I knew this was what the song was about inside, you hit it on another level and made me feel so intouch with this song more. I feel like I constantly am fighting with myself in so many ways.

[@CptBeard777]

Taylor, this is now just the 3rd reaction of yours ive watched.... I love your energy n passion! ❤ ...... Its contagious! You inspire me and im sure, so many others! As I commented in your other video a little while ago, you're no doubt one of the very best at what you do! Keep on! .......Its an amazing thing, Youre a stranger to me, but somehow you feel like a close friend... thank you! .....you are so well spoken, obviously you are professional! ...I only wish I could be so well spoken too, Im not, however I dont let it stop me from doing my best, and whats right, and saying what I need to, hopefully Im making a great difference.... I know you are! Your light is shining through the dark! I love seeing it!

[@KCXMedia]

I've been binging these for a couple of days. I've never had luck with therapy. I'm not good talking to people beyond surface conversation....I did try therapy 3 times, and got the distinct impression I was kind of a chore. Or maybe I'm a bore. Regardless, I just put it all back inside where it goes and moved along. However, I've enjoyed hearing Taylor's break down of the same music that soothes me into feeling a little less isolated. So thanks Taylor, I'm listening, and you're helping me...please keep doing these. If you get around to it, dig into Highly Suspect sometime. Johnny touches on some really powerful emotions, I suspect like me, he has bipolar disorder. So much of what he goes through and sings about has really helped me on those difficult days. -Jason

[@lenaanderson2295]

I want to thank you for this. I never realized he was fighting himself. I've always taken this as a breakup song. ❤

I totally feel like this sometimes. I have ADHD, and I've worked with my therapist and I've learned to accept me with my defects. But it never stops being hard. Sometimes, when I remember this is for life, I practically lose all hope of being capable to manage myself for a while 😔

I bury me to reflect acceptance, like bury the hatchet, accept you don't need it and let it go, let it rest

[@williamdumas6894]

Such an amazing song one of the best ⚜️⚜️⚜️

[@WolfQuantum]

You have to recognize your darker self. Examine it, accept it is part of you, then YOU set your boundaries and choose your better self. You make the choices as a complete person. If you ignore that part of you, it will sneak up at times and damage you. When you know and accept all of you, you can make better choices that make for a better life. Not a rosy, nothing bad ever happens life. But, a life where you roll with it and rise back over the waves. A lot of people won't understand that or that about you. Not your problem. It's about you leaning you and using that to be a better, more authentic you. I turned 67 March 24th and these are lessons I have learned. Some the hard way. The messy, the depressed, the bleak, they don't own me anymore. I own me and I am responsible for me. Funny thing that. It makes me a lot more relatable and lovable by those few people who matter to me the most. Hey, it's free information. Do with it as you will. It even has a money-back guarantee. Oh yeah, have a sense of humor. It helps.

[@ginagonzales8229]

This is probably my favorite song and one that I relate to.

Me too, i have tattooed it my chest with 30sec to mars Logo

[@rockerwithawalker]

See I guess, tho hearing this song and seeing the vid hundred times, I never figured the lyrics out,so thank you for makng it all clear. I do have couple sides to me as per ptsd from couple of auto accidents, and ny rotten childhood. I try to be positive, like on my KZbin channel, but in reality I find it difficult to be positive in life. Because of being 100%disaled since age 19( from the accidents), the clinical depression,37 symptoms of Fibromyalgia,a TBI,A mood disorder with a General Anxiety Disorder, it is very hard to maintain positivity. I, also, have been in grief counseling. So yeah it's a fricken lot. Very cool hearing the breakdown of this song, I wish I was able to have what the song depicts. Great reaction. This song, totally love it. Means a lot to me.Have a great day!

[@Dethrider87]

well, just random clikcing on videos led me to you, and while i have depression issues, and childhood ptsd, among other things, watching you get excited about this song has made me smile and laugh a bit.. i have struggled with voices when i get too far down into my own mind when im depressed. watching your reaction of daddy from korn brought tears to me, i remember my first time hearing that song 24 years ago, when i was actively trying to deal with certain things... MIght i make a suggestion, if you havent done this song already, check out Bleed from Cold. Or anything from the band Sentenced

What an amazing homage to the film, The Shining. Well done, gents.

[@PunkRockBarbie]

Especially as an autistic person, this song has always resisted with me. Now that you kind of put this into perspective, it makes sense. Most of my life, I masked my true self and just tried to be a normal person so hard and it killed me, but I also had no idea I was doing it as i didn't know I was autistic until I was 28 (34 now). Finally, years later, I've learned to let so much of my masking go and let myself OUT. It just hits so deeply to me- to bury one part of yourself and boy do I understand that feeling well. Thankfully, i also know how to let them out.

[@tastetrekker-kl3lj]

Dam I needed that

[@karenlandon5332]

My son is going through something like this right now. He wrote me a note saying in part “he has so much to say but I just can’t say it” and “ I’ve never accepted who I am”. He’s 20, autistic, and suffers from anxiety and depression. I’ve gotten him a therapist and he’s seeing her weekly, as well as additional support. It’s going to be a long journey to get to a good place I think. Depression is an awful disease. We haven’t had an episode in about 5 years. But I do take them seriously and will ask him if he’s thinking about hurting himself. I worry about him but I know he’s getting help. Hes so smart and kind and funny and I know he has so much potential. It’s hard watching him suffer.

[@TrymYoutubeMainChannel]

hell yes I've felt that

[@trevorcraythorn4558]
