Today is my firstborn son's birthdate. He passed away 3yrs ago due to a fentanyl overdose. As I was thinking of him today, this song came on. First time I ever heard it. Took my breath away, even more when I watched the video. Timothy was a BMX rider and I would take him and his friends into Philly to ride. Thank you so very much for this priceless gift your band as given me.

The solo at the end transmits what the song wants to explain, the pain, the end of a love relationship, this song makes me cry, because I'm going through that, the guitar at the beginning begins with a sad melody and then changes to a I strum loudly as with rage and anger as it happens at the end of a love affair that was special

[@danielsarahbelle]

Patterson Hood of the Drive By Truckers talks about what he calls “perfect songs,” which couldn’t possibly be made better by changing anything about them. This is a perfect song, and the way he weaves such atmospheric sounds into lyrics so deep is actually quite spiritual. Pain and fear are so basic to being human, and the way he touches on them takes what’s often seen as negative and flips it to an expression of human connection and solidarity. This isn’t just a “perfect song.” I don’t know if you could make a more perfectly human piece of art at all.

[@robertwhittaker4324]

So glad I found them. Keeps me sane. So so beautiful

That solo at the end is like guitar turned into the human emotion of pain; its like it is aggravated and distressed that it cant change and it works with the song so well, we start to hear small changes that only hint at attempts to make something work/change only to be caught in the same note again(pain), then it carries on over the melody which I interpret as life is always painful, however it shows the human spirit of wanting to make it work...what?.... Wow. The musicality and innovation of this band is unheard of.

Pull me close and let me hold you in/give me a deeper understanding of who I am. Gorgeous lyrics.

[@BaBamf11]

This song has always really resonated with me. I’m 29 years old and for 5 years have dealt with an autoimmune, inflammatory arthritis in my back that causes chronic pain that will likely only get worse. I first heard this song when I had been recently diagnosed, and it really did help cope through the pain in a small way. Thank you, TWOD!

Hi, try grass fed beef bone broth.

[@emil3709]

Yes, it's really hard to find any upside to dealing with chronic pain, but I've always found that music helps. I have chronic pancreatitis and sometimes just eating food can cause severe bouts of visceral pain. Nothing like sweating and literally being worn out and shaking from weakness from having to endure severe pain for hours on end. But, music definitely helps, sometimes a lot. Very thankful to have access to music such as this.

The tone of the guitar❤️

[@helenesuss4606]

Rick Krasco oh yeah!

[@browncow3216]

AG is the King of Tone. Seems to feel the music - music not all about how fast your fingers move.

[@louisrichards3160]

Browncow yup! He did a Rig Rundown a few years back; very interesting.

[@helenesuss4606]

Rick Krasco yes I saw that it was great!

[@LucMMailloux]

Holy shit. I read your comment before the solo and was like "ya, that acoustic does sound nice... but huh?"... Then that solo/interlude hit. Nothing flashy, but ya. That tone.

Lyrics Go to bed now I can tell Pain is on the way out now Look at the way the domino falls away I know it's hard looking in Knowing that tomorrow you'll be back again Hang your head and let me in, I'm waiting So long I was staring into the light When I saw you in the distance, I knew that you'd be mine Am I moving back in time? Just standing still? I met a man with a broken back He had a fear in his eyes that I could understand I can't even shake the hand Without breaking it I've been pulling on a wire, but it just won't break I've been turning up the dial, but I hear no sound I resist what I cannot change And I wanna find what can't be found I'm aware of the time we lost Like a demon in the doorway, waiting to be born But I'm here all alone, just begging Pull me close and let me hold you in Give me the deeper understanding of who I am Yeah, I'm moving back again, I'm waiting, yeah I'm just pulling on a wire, but it just won't break I've been turning up the dial, but I hear no sound I resist what I cannot change, own it in your own way Yeah, I wanna find what can't be found

About 18 mths ago a friend recommended TWOD. This song, clip in particular immediately resonated with my soul. I listen to it whenever i need a lift, which is to often these days. The guitar riff in particular makes me smile every time. Sweet sound, just love it.✌️

[@cristiangutierrez708]

The first time I listen to this master piece.

[@BigLebowski2000]

The instrumental part from 3:47 till the end just wow!

[@maxichazmaxi]

starting at that point is where i don't like the song anymore. but the rest, just a masterpiece!

[@BigLebowski2000]

:) Dude, that final instrumental part is just epic. And yes ofcourse the rest is great too.

[@trianglebld6962]

BigLebowski2000 Exactly, Epic, goosebumps, instrumental end part is just amazing.

[@kye44]

Hit me like icy cold water! I love it.

[@chriscassier4064]

Agreed.

[@jocazjoejo]

Pain and Thinking of A Place are by far very emotive and moving pieces of music that will remain personal favorites for years to come.

[@nicolaslegrand9414]

So trivial but this has got to be one of the heart-wrenching, beautiful songs ever .... Gorgeous!

[@ritchierich6647]

First time I heard this song, and this band, I was working as a Service Advisor in Aransas Pass,Tx. I'll never forget that day because I had a customer in front of me asking about their vehicle and I totally tuned them out as I listened with all my heart to this song.... been following this band since then and they have restored my faith in music!!!

[@HeyLookAtTheMoon]

Been there haha. Hope you were able to fix their car

Been suffering for years with mental health holding the darkness in. I finally broke during lockdown and rang the Doc in tears. Been on meds since. Never needed help from anyone. But sometimes I guess we need a help along... Your music brings me piece and warmth. Please keep doing what you do.. love from england x

[@MarcPlaAguilera]

"I met a man with a broken back He had a fear in his eyes that I could understand I can't even shake the hand Without breaking it" This is so humble, so regretful, so desperate, so beautiful, so self-aware, so hopeful for a better a future... SO HUMAN. I am incapable of putting it into words. I break into tears like a baby as soon as Adam sings "pain is on the wait out now" at the very beginning of the song, overwhelmed with emotions that were hidden deep inside just seconds ago. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I cant help but shout out loud every word as they were mine. "Pull me close and let me hold you in. GIVE ME THE DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF WHO I AM". It's weird... I find this line sounds so like me. Not the person people sees when they look at me, but who I think I TRULY am, deep down in my heart... That somehow I feel I couldnt sound so much like myself even if I tried. Just WOW. Thank you guys for this masterpiece. There are very few songs that hit me so hard (one of them is Bowie's "Slow burn" in case somebody wants to check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmewdZuqd6qgedU 🙂).

[@muzzmatrix]

I'm hearing echos of Bob Dylan in these vocals. VERY COOL.

[@bryanrawlinson124]

David Muzzatti I hear a lot of amazing echos. Fleetwood Mac, Jackson Brown, Dire Straights. WoD are masters at putting 80s rock styles together to make one amazing sound.

[@Capn_Jack]

David Muzzatti Was actually just thinking the same.

[@dannysene5030]

I get a neil young vibe from the guitar

[@audiotherapy3345]

Just discovered TWOD about a month ago and I can’t stop listening. There is something intangible here that I can’t put my finger on but it has me hooked. I love the intro to this song, when the drums come in at 0:20 - so crisp and up front in the mix, I love it. And then the riff, and the vocals, it’s all great. Keep making great music!

[@thecanberean]

I agree. I just discovered them too myself about a month ago and I've been listening to their last 3 albums non-stop. I'm 57 and they sound so retro and derivative but somehow original all at the same time. Absolutely love them. Their new album is close to a masterpiece I reckon.

[@seanwalsh72]

When I hear people say there is no good music today, I always direct them to The War on Drugs.

[@Claytone-Records]

Bit of of Uncles Neil and Bob in this sound. Very nice. Many listens to come.
