I didn't realize till my fifth time watching that he already crashed his car in the lake and the movie theater is him watching his life flash before his eyes there are so many layers to this video. Including the burning piano which is was her passion and him burning it to get rid of the memories. Plus the opening of the video is him arriving back home from his near death experience to embrace is (I'm guessing) mother. Hence the soaked clothes. This is the most polished music video I've seen in a long time.

[@Spartacus_Snakeplissken1]

I understand, you're not alone. I visit my dead son, Spartacus aka "Sparty". Spartacus forever took a piece of my heart and it will ache till I take my last breath. It's hard to visit my baby son at the cemetery but I do. And I always remained strong even after losing him. I didn't numb the pain with drugs, alcohol, sex, food, work, exercise, or the terrible internet. I dealt with it and faced all the emotions and got personal help, and I thank God always for the strength I have. I honor my son by being stronger and a better person every day. I honor my son by being strong for his little brother he now has and my husband. It's okay to have emotions and it's okay to be human. U keep your head up. Bless you. And bless your little angel. My angel son is doing greater things beyond this world and I know yours is too. I lost Spartacus on October 26 of 2022, he was perfectly formed and a lovely weight but a stillborn . His little brother was born on October 26 2023! Same day, baby snake. 😇. I was treated pretty bad both my pregnancies mainly by my own family especially. My husband was the only one truly there for me and I'm still greatful. Smile because he's proud of u and I know mine is too. Pain is privilege to a warrior 🙏.

My sincere condolences for the loss of your parents to cancer. I understand the profound pain and sense of loss you are experiencing. While I did not suffer from a brain tumor, I lost my mother at the age of 26 and my father at the age of 27. I empathize with your feelings of being utterly lost without your parents. I hope you find solace and peace during this difficult time. If you are open to spiritual practices, I found that prayer provided me with a sense of comfort and strength.

[@Koreacasian]

Maybe you aren’t spiritual, but when you are at your limits and you ask our creator for peace, it will come. Prayers for you, your mother… stay strong.

I'm sorry for what you went through and are going through. I understand the situation well, as I have a very similar story. Maybe a little worse, but we have great similarities in our paths. In my case it all started 10 years ago. I hope that things can get better for you, that the sun shines again, that you find yourself again and smile again. Hold on to faith and be strong. Everything passes, it may take time, but it will pass and things will get better.

I haven’t been this attached to a song in a long time. It’s like my soul had already heard it before.

[@mjtonn]

This song and video are powerful. It expresses so many deep themes. One of those being grief over the death of a loved one. Another is the isolation of loss. It’s also interesting to see how through the whole video, it’s basically only the couple. The video appears to be a reflection of modern views on romantic relationships. There are no other supports, or community, or even other people. The couple walks alone in the park. They eat alone in a diner. They dance alone in an empty dance hall. The older woman (who could be his mother, or at least a family member) comes only at the end to console him, and express affection. The only other people that possibly could be present are those in the other cars at the drive-in movie, which as another commenter pointed out, could just be him experiencing his life flashing before his eyes. The video does a great job of expressing all the highs and low -love, the announcement of a baby, the loss of that baby, the loss of a partner, drug use, and the fall out. The hard part to deal with is there is little hope left in the video. And the lyrics match this sentiment as well (“we’re all going down to the flowers.”) In the end, it appears that the man has a second chance; he has survived his water suicide attempt. But what will he do now? He has lost the woman that he has loved - the whole video is him fixated on her. (The band is called “While She Sleeps” and the album is “Self-Hell.”) We all need something outside ourselves to hope in. Otherwise, we are stuck in the same abyss from the song (“It’s too late, nothings gonna change at all. Nothing gonna change at all.”) Only God can give us that ultimate hope. My prayer is that everyone that watches this video, and relates to the painful subjects presented, find hope in Jesus. Instead of numbing ourselves to pain (like with drugs, or attempting suicide, or many other things), we can find peace in God. Everyone needs hope to live and to love.

I discovered this song yesterday while driving back home from my band's concert. Played it on repeat for 4 hours straight while crying over 'us'. She was sleeping in the passenger seat and I barely pulled my thoughts together while gripping the steering wheel. We've had this kind of relationship for the past 5 years... last month, she decided that she wants to move forward and be 'just friends'. Two nights ago I lost all hope; all the talks & changes couldn't fix 'us' this time, she's really serious about it. 'Just friends' feels impossible for me right now, as I still have so many feelings left for her. She was my best friend and the only one I felt comfortable sharing every thought with. Today, the only thing I'm sure about is that without her, I can't feel anything but 'down'. Tomorrow, I'll be moving back to my parents place for a while... I only watched the music video this morning and it's exactly how I pictured 'us' on the road back home. Incredible composition, outstanding acting. Thank you While She Sleeps. Thank you Robert Peach and Anna Thornley

I hope it doesn’t sound cheap; turning to Jesus will not suddenly ease all your pain, but, He is the God who created you, and He crated you for a purpose, and that is to be in a relationship with God, to worship and serve Him. I hope you’ll consider Jesus.

[@tria9623]

My last longterm relationships were drowned in a drug addiction, both were struggling through many mental issues, but loving each other from full heart. I had moments when I was afraid of a possibility to pass out due to unreal doses we were using. I remember this episodes when I felt doomed by an addiction and in the end we were in a toxic but addictive relationship. In the ending road of this nightmare I was too close to commit a suicide. This pain was something more powerful and at the same time the regrets... Now I can control myself, we broke up and I am developing myself in many things and I got a will to live. Just want to let you know, even if there is an episode where you think there won't be a brightside, continue fighting

This song and video absolutely broke me down. It just feels like my past relationship put into a video and it's a raw feeling, which I can not escape.

[@SourRobbo]

Honestly, best track I’ve heard from this band is a very long time. Used to be a die hard from the beginning but last couple albums haven’t resonated with me. This tune feels special.

[@nolankuffner3573]

A die hard is someone who likes something and basically has to try to hate that tjing not to enjoy it. You could just say "I really liked this band's earlier stuff, I haven't enjoyed them recently". Instead you have to try and pat yourself on the back for enjoying a song. Half of every band's "fans" fucking suck. Derive whatever meaning you want from that.

[@SourRobbo]

@@nolankuffner3573 Nolan, get some mates lad. This songs sick, special I even said. I followed the band sing the north stands for nothing days, but over time interest peaks and dwindles with bands. Sausage.

[@walkertexasraymond]

@@nolankuffner3573chill man lol it’s cool for people to fall in and out of love with a band. I agree the last couple of albums weren’t there for me. Are they bad? Not at all! Just weren’t for me and that’s okay. I’ve been listening since the north stands for nothing days. Let the man express himself lol

[@connora3145]

Hope you’re in a better mood now Nolan

[@SourRobbo]

@nolankuffner3573 Fancy going for a pint sometime?

[@danielgarces6934]

The kind of music that makes me feel alive

[@tylervespa6182]

Music videos like this are truly an art. I love this.

[@musicbeyondwithboushra]

I had to grieve my unborn baby on my own a while ago ..and reached breakup due to the depression that caused me. The scene where they lost the baby made my tears go down like a river. This depicts the emotions I felt back then especially that the event led to a break up as well. It actually made me feel not alone in it, the chaos one experience in their life in the aftermath of such event is insane. The complexity of that cant be put into words. Yet the video knew how to transmit those emotions..lots of respect for this piece of art. And lots of courage to all thise going through something similar. 🙏🏻

[@MarkNuuuuuutt]

That dude can act. Usually i don’t care about acting but that dude crushed it. Also Sean making me simultaneously want to get better at guitar and also quit with those unique amazing leads

[@somedogsarecops2354]

The best song they have released since the You Are We era.

[@ReadytoBlood]

AGREE

[@matthewduncan572]

True- really fell off from this band after So What? but this new song absolutely slaps

[@eliodel240]

Know Your Worth is my favorite by them so I have to disagree

[@Night-rage]

You guys are crazy, Sleeps Society is an amazing album

[@xShadowsunx]

Constantly reinforcing the fact that this is my favourite band for a reason. Just beautiful

[@JimothyBridgemont]

This video really transported me somewhere, into their story, and has me thinking about my own. Life is truly awful and beautiful throughout, and you can’t imagine the extreme lows and highs until you’ve experienced them. Very beautifully shot, acted, and viscerally real.

[@joyyoung9245]

1:35 first play through and I’m crying before the words even hit. The rift hit and I’m bawling . It has been so long since a song hit me so hard and I am in hearbreaking love with it.

[@lemaniatico5121]

It is incredible the meaning that the song takes with the short..

[@Erowooww]

Sean that solo was pure gold ❤❤❤

[@HEADASSLOOKINGAHHH]

Sean is a genius at what he does

[@hermanngirs]

Greatest band. Perfect song. Very good actors and director. Thanks

[@ben10jenkins]

My goal as a musician is to create something as sonically and visually incredible and heartfelt as this. Thanks for sharing this with the world guys, a serious inspiration.

[@ChristicleNielsen]

Holy shit… I’ve never had a music video move me like this did. I’m at a loss for words. Wow. This is your guys masterpiece.

[@alicesr]

Here's what i interpret what the video means, I'd appreciate a read! So they meet each other and they start dating. In the scene where we can see her screaming at him while they're at a restaurant, maybe it was a date but he showed up drunk so she got mad at him. Maybe he has a problem with alcoholism. Latet on we see that she is pregnant and she tells her boyfriend about it and they seem very happy about it. Unfortunately they suffer a miscarriage and from that point onwards everything starts falling apart. She falls into depression and they start growing apart. In the scene where they're on a bench we can see her crossing her arms while he offers her a cigarette. Perhaps it was his way of coping with traumatic events. He also introduces her to drugs to numb her pain and eventually we see that in a scene. Now here's the interesting part. The girl did not die, rather he died. He was the one who OD'd and passed away. Everything that we see (giving her CPR, her struggling to breathe, and him crying on top of her) wasn't actually her. She was the one who was giving the CPR and trying to bring him back to life. But alas, he was dead. Every scene that we see him alone was after he died, and then entered an endless cycle of memories. In his memories, he thinks his gf died and he's the cause for it (all the scenes). He is tired of experiencing the pain over and over again that he tries to kill himself. But he cannot, he's already dead. He jumps into a lake to drown himself but ends up in a "reality" where he's inside the car watching the memories in a big screen while his car continues to flood, suggesting that a fragment of him is trying to kill himself. But he cannot die, he's already dead. So we see him fall out of a soaked car. He is just trying to end his cycle but ends up alive in another "reality" where he has to experience all that once again. But he finally breaks free. The gf who didn't actually die, finally dies. The old woman is his gf who continues to live until she's old and then dies of natural causes. She sees him after death and he too finds her in their afterlives and then they hug and the cycle of endless pain breaks. She is seen fully dressed perhaps, she was given a proper funeral by her family meanwhile her boyfriend who died while he OD'd while shirtless is again seen shirtless while they hug. The boyfriend associates the piano with his girlfriend. After he dies, the piano is in front of him. When the piano is burning away, maybe his gf is now growing old in real time and has reached her death bed and her body is slowly dying (piano burning away). And when it falls apart, she is dead. And they finally meet after death. And their meeting breaks the sumsara and sets his soul free after he finally realises he didn't kill his gf but infact he's the one who passed away. Thank you so much if you made it this far, i really appreciate it. I had so much fun while writing this :))

[@adityatigga3038]

the most interesting and beautifully genius thing I've heard in a v long time

[@famousgreenraincoat]

Thank you so much for this great analysis and all the effort you put into this. This is so far my favorite interpretation of this video and it makes so much sense in many ways. Really enjoyed the read.

[@alicesr]

@@famousgreenraincoat im so glad!!! thank you

[@abrarkadabrar7829]

Everyone involved in this music video needs some kind of award. The actors, the crew behind the scenes, of course the band themselves. Hats off to everyone! Peace and love. ♥️

[@iwillwinsomehow]

this is one of the most powerful music videos i have ever seen. i was just going around listening to different and new music i haven't heard and was hit with this. i currently just wrapped up a divorce and nothing has made me emotional as this video these last 9 months. the exact same emotions portrayed is exactly what i was/am going through. definitely needed this.

[@pinkysvideos8502]

This song just poured out every emotion to man and woman ! I was left crying,smiling, laughing, angry. ..so much more. Music is a powerful thing ! Much love to the Artist from Maine ! I love this song to the core !

[@Anderson_the_NomaD]

Speaking from someone who's lost a child in the late stages of pregnancy, I can say it's one of the hardest things to come back from. Not many people do. It's taken my wife and I almost a year and a half to get back to "normal." I can only understand so much not being the one who physically went through it, but the pain runs deep. Be there for them even if sometimes you're the one that has to absorb a bit of that pain. Hold them closely and know its neither of your fault. If you dont hold each other up, then one of you could drown in the sorrow. Live for each other and the future. Go through the process as long as it takes. It won't be easy , but you won't be alone.. There's always a brighter tomorrow ahead after the darkness.

[@ImaFoolButUrFool]

I am sorry for your loss. How i got here... the darkness always comes back and i would like to thank everyone for that

[@Anderson_the_NomaD]

@JosephJames-oe4jq thank you. After the majority of a year of recovering, I'm really happy to say my wife and I are expecting again. She's only 10 weeks and it's very early but I just want you to know. There's always a light at the end of the darkness, you just have to be strong and patient.

[@ImaFoolButUrFool]

@@Anderson_the_NomaD thats... wonderful. Congratulations

[@LinusAkaPano]

@Anderson_the_NomaD We got sent home on the day off the expected delivery and were asked to come back in 8 days or if anything happens. 4 days later we woke up with there being no movements at all. One rushing later and a bunch of time to convince the dr's to even let us stay and start the process with medicine.. 16 hours of her drinking medicine shots to start it, then 17 hours of labour.. My little girl was stuck halfway and the doctors did nothing. After her vitals had been terrible for 2 hours they decided on a blood test from her head. Her lactic acid levels were extremely high. Now they decide to do a c-section. It was too late. I stood and watched in silence as over 12 different doctors tried saving my daughter's life with CPR and adrenaline shots. 48 minutes later i held her for the first time but she didn't make it

[@LinusAkaPano]

​@@Anderson_the_NomaDI wish you all the luck in the world. Life will strike us down and we will break hundreds of times. But keep getting up, that's all we can do

[@Crewton650]

Such a great video/song. Had me breakdown crying. 5 year relationship turned into absolutely nothing. She ended up cheating on me with my dad’s co worker. Keep rolling with the punches boys

[@richiewolfson3871]

The best single so far. This is sleeps at their best. Love everything about it. Great work guys

[@andresyoung5519]

This band is pure GOLD

[@SnoopySlopes]

The most potent emotional music video released to date. tears roll down my face because i can confidently and regrettably say I've suffered this lesson. incredible that you guys were able to put it into lyrics. thank you.

[@itzkevsho4668]

2:34 THIS SCENE ITS JUST SO F*UCKIN GOOD!!!!!

[@stevencrichton7677]

I've watched this video 20+ times in the last 2 days & each time there's something new to notice. This time it was realising why he's ringing out his t-shirt at the start 😢 The lost art of music videos is needed for the very reason that is this masterpiece. We all take our own subjective message or meaning from a song, but a real, powerful video like this conveys so much about the thoughts behind the words & the notes. It helps reach that extra realm of potential of connecting deeper from band to fan, no matter where in the world. Their heavy songs hit in every way imaginable live, but some of their songs driven by the suffering that comes with feeling are so emotionally profound that they cry out for an alternatively artistic way to portray their story such as this. What a song, what a video, absolutely beautiful #youarewe

[@janebtk9039]

the music. the video. it's pure perfection. every single member in this band is a true artist. you are so inspiring. I love you while she sleeps 💌

[@brandonhoward5559]

What a haunting way to represent how it feels to watch the world die and feel complicit, full of remorse and overwhelming sadness The same space we shared our happiest moments now hollow and empty. That the life we loved is dead

[@martinkirilov4785]

f*ck man...that's so overwhelming.

[@Skagb0y]

anyone else notice at 4:33 it's the passenger side door that's opened & got him out of the car under water. Not sure if it was intentional but i took it as a sign that though she's gone she wants him to keep on living even though its going to be difficult without her physically being there she is always with him.

[@LegendarySnakeV]

Nice finding ! And yeah nice analysis !

[@cpt191021]

notice the car didn't fully submerge the water wasn't deep enough. Looed to only be about 4-5 ft deep He didn't decide to live it just wasn't deep enough the car shows the water went up to about shoulder lvl. So iI think he tried but it didn't work. idk were get into interpretive stuff so. But i assume he drove in was ready to die and then realized it wasn't deep enough and had to swim back to shore. And now hes covering it up but mom knows.

[@nuke8672]

Very few people might know about this but that's J Krishnamurti quote at the start. And it just gave me goosebumps seeing WSS music video with JK's quote in it. Well done WSS 🤌🤌🤌

[@LegendarySnakeV]

I was still wondering for the quote, thanks for the info. "And we hope somehow through time, throughout events, through political action, through organization that things will become more sane and healthy. But I'm afraid they will never be..."

[@LegendarySnakeV]
