[@skitch5076]

Kyle, I love you so much man. Thank you for everything you've ever done to us WCAR fans. Your voice will be a part of my life forever. Whatever happened and where ever you go. I'll still love you forever. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you.

[@bartholomewlogans4765]

Skitch I have been listening to them ever since I heard of his passing. Just at a loss for words. This band has always had such a tremendous impact on me. His voice will live on forever. Kyle, wherever you are, may you be at peace and wrapped in the love that you were so willing to give to others.

[@richiemitchell4255]

Every single lyric is so much more painful and powerful at the same time since the loss of Kyle.. but for some reason it has given me even more motivation to keep fighting, for us all ❤️ stay strong my brothers and sisters

[@urallbadkids]

I guess I'm a big pussy, because I cried reading your comment dude - RIP Kyle, we all love you.

[@traviswhite9586]

In the same MF mood, my dude. Been crying since I got off work,, 'Never Let Me Go' was what set it off for me. I fukkin love this band.

[@urallbadkids]

@@traviswhite9586 It may some corny, but all of us as 'We Came As Romans' fans are all united in a brotherhood my man, we are all together in this life - never forget this.

[@DrDipsh1t]

It's 2023 and this song still hits me so hard. Definitely gonna be on replay for a while

[@beerguy4207]

RIP dude, you're definitely missed.

[@user-pj3zc8yz3h]

😢

[@MoYoU99]

RIP Kyle. The world has lost an amazing voice and person. You'll always be missed♥♥

[@gratefuldeadmau5610]

Was gonna upvote but ur at 69

[@MRBlack-zp6od]

Kyle forever ,good song

[@AITries]

Always...

[@hellogoodbye1962]

3 years later. Song still hits the same as when it came out. R.i.p. Kyle.

[@PeekaBooO17]

Visiting after 10 years... Hope to visit again..

[@Makolitshitz]

“Will you restore me?” This song really gets me and this is my fave! Damnit Kyle, RIP Dude. Condolences for the band and Fam.

[@povilitus]

1:22 just gets me. The breakdown hype on screen. The buildup. Nothing will replicate Kyle ever.

[@tylerkreis2273]

This song has helped me get sober. Not to long ago I would breakdown crying to this song because of how much I related. I did it somewhat for you kyle. Rest in paradise legend

[@JonxNgo]

Seriously the deepest and most meaningful song they've ever written. I'm glad they finally made a music video out of this

[@tronlorne9328]

Kyle’s part has always been phenomenal but now it hits hard and stings. RIP

[@monsterblood6527]

This band deserves way more recognition that they already have!!

[@backroomsfan101]

i have to agree.you will be missed kyle.rest in peace

[@justinrides3635]

When Kyle's keys kick in at 3:10,...... just man😢😢. Still miss him after all these years!!

[@steezyceej]

going back and listening to kyle makes me really miss the golden era of metalcore that we were truly in. RIP kyle

[@justinwhite1078]

Please dont ever stop making music. This song has helped me leave behind a 12 year addiction to heroin and meth. Everytime I hear it I cry. I am still learning to speak out against myself but I k ow God WILL restore me! You guys are amazing!! ❤❤❤

[@silverfire629]

That's so sad because especially Kyle's overdose to heroin

[@jamesjordangreenwell9244]

Me too, man. This song has been a huge part of my recovery.

[@shawnsims5507]

This band has helped me through some hard times as well and I really miss Kyle's voice so I visit KZbin maybe this is late but I'm proud of ye for getting clean.

[@carmelam3400]

Hope you guys are doing great! Just keep going! We all can overcome everything with faith! We are not meaningless just as WCAR has told us in their songs.

[@VanionLOT]

I hope you're still doing alright, man.

[@ivankostadinov5924]

The devil on my shoulder tells me he's proud of me That it takes a real man to look out for himself and no one else I don't want to believe that But sometimes it's easier to just stay silent I wish I knew how to speak out I never had a problem with words But only when talking to someone else Talking to someone else There's a wear inside me that's all my own And I need to talk like a king to keep myself afloat But how much longer until everyone knows? how much longer until everyone knows? how much longer until everyone knows? There's a war inside me that's all my own There's a war inside me that's all my own I should have started to take my own advice From the moment that I started giving it But I can only control what happens from here And if none of this had happened Then I couldn't have heard The angel on my shoulder tells me he's proud of me That it takes a real man to live for everyone else before himself I know I believe it And it'll never get easier But it will always be worth it There's a war inside me that's all my own, all my own I'm still learning to speak out against myself And stay on the path I truly want to be on Though I've lost my way more times that I have wished My heart is constant and willing I still believe that we were made for more That what I've been doing lately This end of depression will be the start of getting back what I have lost Because I had become conceited But I'm making it back to where I last left off And so I've shown you my heart Will you restore me?

[@GamingBarbarossa]

This album was their peak. They've written the best song i've ever listen to. I miss this unique sound they had, this album makes me remember so much things ...

[@acousticbeats808]

Yeah this cd was def their peak

[@Ryhillchibulls]

Mad disrespectful to Tracing Back Roots. I had to force myself to listen to this album over and over to grow an appreciation for it. Now this maybe my fave WCAR song. I can understand this being someone's favorite album by them but saying it's their best as a definitive statement...😒 Eitherway its a debate and a toss up to most. Just don't have this being their best as a end all be all fact.

[@sike1029]

thats one persons opinion, doesnt mean its fact

[@stevenm6301]

Im way late to this party but now being 32 years old this album has not been bumped out of my top 5 of all time. Front to back it is a masterpiece.

[@thelittleowl1]

i think cold like war was their peak tbh.

[@knoxxyskatez7025]

we came as romans is by far one of the best and most influential bands I've ever heard and should be way more recognized and popular. their lyrics are perfect.

[@Anonymooseity]

This song literally gives me tears every time because this is exactly how I am and I hate it so much, I am so conflicted and its so hard. I used to listen to the devil on my shoulder all the time while I felt like I watched myself destroy my own life and those who were closest to me for no reason only to spite myself. Recently Ive finally found the angel one my shoulder. To be the person I want to be, and to know I am. But dealing with the aftermath of what listening to the devil is so hard to cope with especially since I have pushed 90% of my friends away and have next to nobody and I dont and do understand why. Of all the songs and different musicians and artists and genres of music I listen to which ranges from opera to reggae, from metalcore and pop punk to dubstep and classic rock. Metal Core (post hardcore whatever genre you wanna call it) Has given me 2 songs to Describe myself perfectly 100% something I have never found in any genre and I used to hate this music. A War Inside by We Came As Romans and Give It All by The Amity Affliction. I get so emotional when I listen to either because hearing someone else (a song no less) tell you how you are is just so...real, you get to see yourself and its usually very ugly. Idk just thought I'd share my experience with this amazing music that a lot of people misunderstand. I know because I used to be one of them who just thought this was whiny emo crap. Man was I wrong.

[@102motoracer]

Love it ❤

[@Anonymooseity]

Ben W Yeah im good man. You believe what you want but keep it to yourself.

[@warriorthawitt9971]

BOTH THOSE BANDS KICK TONS OF ASS DUDE!!!

[@taylorstacey5693]

Hay I understand th art everyone is intitled to there own say in what you like and dislike we'll hears mine fuck you and go fuck you self and not all screamo band are the devil and this is me jus saying what I dislike

[@102motoracer]

Taylor Stacey what?

[@maniac3697]

I can't believe Kyle is gone.. I didn't even know until about a month ago. You were great man, R.I.P 🙏

[@lowdenlad8807]

2:10 when Kyle sings “and If none of this had happened” will always give me goosebumps miss you man ❤️

[@CogZeta911]

"Understanding what we've grown to be" > "Tracing back roots"

[@killerhippo10]

to plant a seed > both of those lol

[@killerhippo10]

actually I lied I love all of wcars shit

[@shvleeden1]

Twilightangel95 bloody roots- seplatura

[@r0bnotr0bert]

Tracing back roots> we came as romans

[@rezametaller]

Thank you .Kyle for all the years that your beautiful voice stayed in our hearts

[@allys5214]

3:09-4:07 This part is so pretty

[@Ssjcloud3]

Brutal cheesy heartful soul

[@jasdenyer9080]

This song and it's lyrics deserve way more recognition that it has received. Continuously moved by this song. It is absolutely perfect.

[@NSK_ArK]

+Sapphire Rose Same here...

[@mattd2771]

this song.... is worthy of much more notoriety

[@jasdenyer9080]

+Matt D 110% agreed.

[@bluesmiles5]

This song always brings me to tears every time I listen to it. The song and album have been out for almost 5 years now, and this video almost for 4, but doesn't even get 1 million views. One of their more underrated songs

[@jasdenyer9080]

+Sarah Miles YES. So glad a few other people appreciate it as much as myself! These lyrics just really speak to people. Love them.

[@Grassy183]

No matter how many times I listen to this song, I still get goosebumps.

[@mikelmanoff8203]

R.i.p. Kyle we'll miss you dearly your lyrics have literally saved my life on multiple occasions when I was at my worst thank you for everything

[@METALhead70445]

2024 still a great Song! On Repeat...over and over again.

[@epicthree3315]

It may be because im drunk but im here listening to this song thinking about how much of a loss Kyle was im literally tearing up... I don't even listen to post hardcore anymore just rap mostly 😭😭

[@michaelquayle3270]

We came as romans are one of the most meaningful bands on the planet, each of their songs has a big meaning, their lyrics are so inspirational and that's why they're one of my favourite bands, never stop being amazing WCAR!!!!!

[@ProfessorDubs]

This song, along with a lot of Kyle’s other lyrics, got me through my teenage years

[@ammarsasfe]

I can't believe Kyle is gone. Your voice will always be remembered! RIP.

[@ewilliams9]

the final two minutes of this song blows my mind, love it.

[@MrBaklava]

Always my favorite WCAR song, they were one of the first bands that got me into the scene many years ago. Rest in peace Kyle, you were so amazing

[@nosleep8649]

I just wanted to say that this is my first song from them and one of my favorites. I had the pleasure of seeing them on their 2014 tour in Moorhead, MN and m a n it was such a small venue. I had the pleasure of meeting The Color Morale and Palisades that night as well. I'll never forget how good of a show Kyle, David, and the rest of the guys put on. Definitely a night I'll never forget. R.I.P. Kyle.

[@AlefyOliveira]

Their best song indeed, when I listen to this, lots of teenager memories come to my head... congrats from Brazil.

[@TheLastChaoseater]

Havent been following WCAR as much in the recent years but like so many others have said, Kyle's voice was beautiful and such an amazing counterpart to Dave's ferocious gutturals. Just watching this video reminds me of how I found this band and how their first couple albums mean the same to me now as they did years back. Rest in peace Kyle, thank you for being part of an incredible band that helped bring positivity and strength to so many, especially kids and teens who needed it. ❤

[@shaggy_e210]

I love this song... I haven't listened to it in over a year and it came on Pandora and the nostalgia settled in and chill all over

[@emoinlovee95]

Right the same happened to me

[@jamesjordangreenwell9244]

When I was going through the worst part of my addiction, I used to listen to this song. It got me through some fucking hard time. I’ve been clean and sober for a while now, and I’m so grateful for the role this song played in my recovery. Sorry you couldn’t experience that as well, Kyle. RIP.

[@cdabproductions]

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it! This was by far my favorite music video to edit because they all do so much hilarious stuff when they aren't performing and I had dozens and dozens of hours of b-roll to work with.

[@irish__maiden]

Perfection!!!!! Still my favorite band!!!!

[@johnnywillis6720]

They are awesome

[@zombietech31]

yes starr wolfe aleman my band favorite

[@MiniHorse420]

"My heart is constant and willing" that is inked on my chest

[@saddestdayever1276]

Dude! This song is a spiritual experience, bro! It's sad that people who don't like this music will never understand, man!

[@murmur4260]

Rest in peace kyle 😭😭😞😞

[@Cwolf93]

I have these lyrics on my left arm. I don't think I've ever experienced the feelings I have with this song than I have with anything else in life. This song is the best thing this band has ever put out, and the best thing to ever happen to me. I can't believe its over 5 years old now. So many memories and nostalgia associated with it.

[@dirtydebbie1611]

ive got an idea for the lyrics on both of my arms. devil and angel on either side, gonna be dope

[@dizzykincade7831]

How ominous is this song, now? Proof that addiction knows no faith, color or belief. It only feeds on all that’s good. God bless you and your family, Kyle. You gave me happiness and hope through your music and it will last as long as this earth does. I trust your faith in Christ will mean we meet one day, and when we do, we will sing a chorus that last until infinity, in unbroken, perfect bodies, to our Savior.

[@RR31305]

Wings Win! That's for you Kyle. We love and miss you 🔥❤️🖤

[@soulbooth]

I used to listen to post-hardcore, metalcore and emo when I was a teenager in the late 90's. I'm 30 years old and I still haven't gotten over how good this style of music is. I'm glad the scene is still kind of alive.

[@mattXcampbell]

The whole album, hell, their whole discography! This band changed my life, man. Not many bands, not many people have that kind of impact on other souls, but they do. Emotion, strength and perseverance is what these guys are about, and I thank them for it. Life changing message!

[@Blumpkinator610]

they literally have no bad songs in my opinion

[@DJ-tl4on]

I love you Kyle rest easy.

[@finess9657]

My heart is constant, and willing

[@onthefly4142]

These guys helped me through all of highschool and years after keep close to god know that you can be restored and speak out against yourself 3ven when you fall god has his hand out ready to pick his children up all your lyrics WCAR have touched me and ill be 50 listening to you guys im 30 now have stop since i heard you my freshman year in 2009

[@allanamccarty8702]

WCAR will always be my favorite band. I can't wait to see you guys, again. 💙

[@GearsOfLag2]

RiP Kyle

[@zennm8499]

Kyle pavone perfect voice , moment songs favorite 3:09 - 5:00 😞

[@sarahtripido]

It's impossible not to cry while watching this. Such an amazing song and so inspirational

[@vintagesoul5562]

Chills all over.

[@coltsfans4life1997]

This one of those songs that can change your life because we are all fighting a war inside each and everyone of us.

[@coldcoffee5766]

+Jordan Stambaugh that is very true...even if we don't relize it, there always gonna be a struggle

[@coltsfans4life1997]

+General Wolf576 But it always our choice to over come it and we can fight it, I know we can

[@coldcoffee5766]

+Jordan Stambaugh yea, but some require more help than others; nevertheless you are right

[@coltsfans4life1997]

+General Wolf576 thanks man for agreeing with me

[@coldcoffee5766]

+Jordan Stambaugh no problem, you deserve it ;)

[@nickrowe1428]

RIP kyle!! This is my favorite WCAR songs and in my top 10 fab songs of all time

[@Boro_9]

This song reminds me of my high school era

[@imouttamymind17]

I cannot watch any WCAR video without smiling. Their music is so important and meaningful to me.

[@aaronaltkid]

This music video brings me back so many memories, I remember finding out about this band back in 8th grade, these songs bring back so many memories

[@bluntastik]

This is something that should be respected by everyone. Very heartfelt.

[@CoHoover]

RIP Kyle brother us WCAR fans will miss you forever your music has helped me and made me find myself brother keep keep rocking 🤘🏼

[@RyzeSkyz]

Chester Bennington, Avicii, and now Kyle Pavone :( RIP!

[@CoolAdam420]

Kyle died years before chester and avicii my guy.

[@CoolAdam420]

RIP none the less

[@HxC4life]

2019 and this song still gets my neighbors cranky! Rad ass video, still! RIP Kyle. Keep it up Dave, you rule brother.

[@6reen6uy]

That drop at the end will always be so special. I hadn’t heard anything so powerful before. 2012 was wild. R.I.P Kyle, Friend.

[@InspireCreate43]

does anyone else basically listen to this song on a daily basis?

[@megan2513]

all the fucking time

[@CsRemix24]

When these guys preform live they do something that like 95% of the bands dont do. They go out into the crowd. When I seen them a few weeks ago one of the singers literally just walked out onto the crowd then crowd surfed back. Thats awesome imo. more bands need to do that

[@lyrinale]

That's my favourite WCAR's song ever. It's not just about the lyrics, I can't even explain it, it's literally about everything. These guys act like they were dorks, but it's such an amazing band that should be given the recognition it deserves

[@whitechapelmusic123]

I dont care if he can't sing live I still want to see them.

[@scubbasteve8418]

Still love this damn song, and always will be my favorite💕

[@dirtydebbie1611]

I STILL BELIEVE!! this has been a joy of mine for the past few years. Thank you!

[@joshuagary2745]

I've seen these guys twice. Both were after the passing of Kyle. I was fortunate to hug these guys necks though. I cannot wait until I see them again. They are worth VIP. Kyle Pavone forever.

[@batteryacid9435]

This song has gotten me through so many rough times. I got "It'll never get easier but it will always be worth it" tattooed on my arm so it can motivate me when nothing else can. Thank you Joshua for these lyrics. All these songs have so much meaning to me.

[@petertylerbennes2547]

In 2009, I took a chance and bought "To Plant A Seed" and thought to myself "this could be a huge waist of money, but what the hell, why not"...needless to say, I haven't regretted that decision still to this day! Keep it up!!!

[@TheLatinoChino]

I don't know what the phenomenon of seeing them live and their "personal" side of the band is, but damn it makes this song THAT much more powerful and polishes off how great of a band they truly are. I am grateful for their words, their talent, and their effort.

[@ROlymps193]

i love when the piano's play

[@TheeAbstractHero]

Me too. I also like the clapping sound they use starting at like 3:08. There is a song off of The Word Alive's Life Cycles album that has an almost identical sound effect. I don't know, I just really dig it. edit: it's "For Your Health"

[@cngoodhue8113]

2:44 - 3:07 is the best part of the song. One of my favorite breakdowns!

[@writingforfun6849]

yeah the beginning is kinda painful...

[@Lucas-ne5su]

I was wondering if anybody would commend about this breakdown. Fucking amazing!!!!

[@chelseagrin9341]

Blows my mind..

[@dharkomens]

this has always been my favorite song from the album... :') i love this song

[@emokidmeadows413]

I love this band so much. No joking, their music saved my life. I was really close to suicide, and then I heard beliefs. It changed me. I thank the band for making such meaningful songs. I could never repay them.

[@DannyBerserk1997]

WCAR is an awesome band! I hope they kickass for a long time.

[@jacobpilmore]

Such a underrated great band

[@Dwesk]

jacob pilmore hahahaha underrated :D Kid you even know what "underrated" means? when a band has over 7 million views on a single video (Hope) that's anything but underrated, they're overrated as fuck.

[@jacobpilmore]

DarkLT4Ewa i mean in terms of kerrang radio airplay

[@Dwesk]

jacob pilmore literally just facepalmed, fuck dude.. :DDD

[@jacobpilmore]

they are amazing and i would do anything to see em live

[@jacobpilmore]

well obviously no man

[@triplehelix247]

Beautiful irony: song is saying he is on his own and that makes us feel less alone by relating to the song.

[@DOULOS1337]

you can totally tell Josh Is a Christian and a real person in these lyrics. I love it.

[@justinrides3635]

Still miss you after all these years kyle! Man this song tears me apart when his keys turn up at the end!

[@kashjaegermusic]

This takes me back. I remember catching this tour at the Venue of Scottsdale in AZ. That was a night I’ll never forget. Rest In Peace Kyle.

[@carmelam3400]

Since yesterday I was thinking about Kyle and how much we are still missing him. He is still alive in our minds and hearts! WCAR has helped us a lot to grow and to survive every single day. If you have an addiction please look for help! I know it won't be easy but you are worthy! Believe in yourself!

[@JascoBeats]

This song means so much to me. Been listening to it for years but now that I'm older I understand the meaning of it and it resonates so much. RIP Kyle your lyrics live on forever

[@TheeBeastradamus]

This song used to lift me up but it makes me sad now. Reminds me of a bad period of my life.

[@timekeepermedia5142]

RIP KYLE :(

[@user-tp4gi8gt3g]

TimeKeeper Media :'(

[@tronlorne9328]

I’m so mad and Sad. Can’t ducking believe this.

[@sofimedina55]

2 months free self harm thanks to this guys. Cant even thank enough for that

[@crabcoremonster103]

this is absolutely thier BEST song ever, gotta love em.

[@hrishikeshsonowal4407]

kyle ,, you will be missed

[@maximumlp]

that oriental bridge at 1:24 gives me wood every time, so sick

[@Vicenteisadrummer45]

Who else gets the chills while listening to this?

[@traviswhite9586]

These come ts just make me want to cry anymore...I love these guys so much

[@bintangdavenport1467]

The end of 2020 and we still miss you Kyle

[@ShufflingNewb]

piano mid-section gives chills

[@swk258]

How can anyone not love WCAR?

[@guih6661]

i get such a good feeling when i listen to this song, or whatever other song of We Came As Romans, but especially this one. (:

[@gracemagisana5503]

R.I.P to Kyle...this and Hope were some of the most helpful songs to me at one point in my life. We Came As Romans had a message that I felt I couldn't quite get from any other band. Their lyrics will always have a place in my heart.
