[@bettyhorsley1259]

Yes i agree 💯... That's awesome

[@MrHahaveryhappy]

I'm two years clean off heroin and quit the day my girlfriend died from overdose next to me while we slept. We were together for 12 years.. the most beautiful girl you could ever see, even as an addict. She was my best friend and losing her I've lost myself. I still havent moved on or been with anyone else. I cant. There was nobody like her and we were so ready to get clean. We both were about to go in rehab. I regret that last night of partying. Something I have to live with and if I could I would take her place so her mom can have her daughter back. I'm her son now but it's not the same. Everywhere I go I carry a letter she wrote me while in jail that says I cant wait to come home. It's like I'm still waiting for her to walk in that door. I miss her so much and only girl I have ever loved. This song kind of put my mind at ease. Thank you for your lyrics and passion. RIP tierany

[@ChrisWindowAndSolarCleaning]

I listen to this song and it makes me sad and grateful at the same time...See Im a 41 year old man who used Meth for 15 years. It took me to alot if dark places and it made me angry, abusive and cold! I did 3 prison terms behind my addiction but today i type this comment with 85 months clean off that shit! I lost countless relationships, my kids and my sanity in those years....Im now a proud small business owner, my fiancé is becoming a nurse and were raising 3 great kids with a 4th on the way!! God is so good

[@mle1ravens1]

Congratulations, that's not an easy addiction to break free from and most don't last 15 years in the belly of that beast...your prison time probably saved your life in a way. Although I don't know directly about meth addiction, I know how hard an addiction can be to break habit from...that's a pretty amazing story my man, someone had your back in the realm of angels.

[@carrieriddle2331]

From your child, your son, I send you a message; I'm sorry I couldn't give you perfection. I'm sorry loving me meant hurt beyond comprehension. But rest easy. Yall will meet again. As a fellow addict that will leave this world too early. Please embrace this. His love or lack there of was never the cause of his path. I pray my mom will know too that some of us are meant to be the light to bring understanding to a world we would never wantvyall to live 1 day through. With sincere love, I hope you know it wasnt you.

I’m sorry sweetheart

[@cd7243]

I cry every time I hear this song. I first heard it while my precious daughter was getting clean. This song reminds me of the nights spent walking the floor and praying for her. I think of her frail body and the constant fear that she was going to slip from this world. My little girl is now a walking testimony that there is a road out of the meth nightmare. I used to be so judgmental when I crossed paths with somebody lost in this world. Now I realize these people are daughters, sons, mothers, fathers, husbands and wives to people who are walking the floors and crying out to God in their behalf, praying for them to be healed of the things that led them to meth. I'm so thankful to have my little girl back. I pray for those still lost....and the people who love them so much it hurts.

[@luthersweat6942]

Meth ruined me. Today is 30 day sober, I’m barely coming out of the Fog but feeling a little more like myself again. I would weep in tears, high as hell, knowing I could be so much more. If you’re struggling, you aren’t alone. Find your nearest Alano club or meeting room, and you’ll see you’re life isn’t so unique and that many strangers want the best for you and they’ll show you how to get your first day clean and sober. Much love.

Prayers from Texas. You're amazing Kevin. Every minute sober is a success. You sir are kicking ass. Much love!!! 🤘🤘🤘👊

[@brandonmcintee2517]

Hope your still on the road to recovery! Sending hugs

[@cd7243]

I hope you are still moving forward, staying clean. If you fall, get back up. Staying sober isn’t a race it’s a marathon. You are in this for the long haul. You’ll make mistakes, do dumb things, trust the wrong people. You’ll even trust yourself before you are strong enough to do so. All of that means you are still alive and kicking and if you are alive there is still hope! You are no worse nor better than anybody else who has fought addiction. So don’t let setbacks crush you. You have strengths and resilience that you are not even aware you have yet. Addiction didn’t cause you to use. Something else caused you to use and you became addicted. Address that cause. In whatever way you are comfortable with, prayer, counseling, a combination. Address the trauma. Address the traumas suffered in addiction. You are worth this work. You are valuable. Your life is valid and needed in this world. You can do this. You can. There is more beauty and love and strength inside you than you can even fathom. When you are at your breaking point…that is not the moment you are about to shatter. That is a breakthrough point. Stand there until you make it through. Come back here for support. Join support groups online. Get to meetings. You do whatever it takes. You fight. Because you are worth the fight. And you are never alone. Never. There are people, all over the world, strangers, mamas and daddies, sisters, brothers, survivors…praying for you.

[@vf12497439]

Hey Kevin, I hope your still clean 6 months later. If your not, you haven’t failed. It took me 3 or 4 years of starts and stops before got control. I’m 20+ years clean today. I turned my back on all my “friends” and walked away. I discovered I was completely alone. I spent so much time surrounding myself with a circle of drug people I had no clean or normal people left. I had, and still have trouble making friends since I become bored with people easily. I have nothing in common with most people and keeping everyone at arms reach keeps me safe. It’s been an adjustment. Today I long for a good friend but I can’t warm up to anyone except my gal. The first time I heard this song I had found out that a girl I knew had overdosed and died 5 years prior. She was a train wreck. She poked holes in her arms and popped Selma’s and oxies to come down to sleep. Honey Ann died at age 45. I never slept with her. But like in the song where he saw her through a broken window with a different point of view. I saw her differently and I guess I was in love with her. Her passing hurt me so. She had the most beautiful blue eyes for a dark skinned Native American girl. Haunting blue… anyway I hope your well.

[@barretbrown4128]

I hope you're still clean and doing well. If not, don't give up. Get back on that path and keep doing it. If a junkie like me can get clean 7 years ago, anybody can do it. Push hard. You can do it. Never give up. Keep your mind busy

[@FinclipRIP]

Spent 20 minutes reading comments, I cherish and respect the people stories of getting sober. There's a bright beautiful world out there and it wants us all in it regardless of misfortune. Continue keep on keeping on!

[@donnatisdale8781]

I lost my son on March 28,24. He was only17. It was an accidental suicide. No drugs involved. This was one of his favorite songs. He sang it everyday esp in the shower with speaker and all. I would mute the tv most times and just listen. 😢 I didn’t know you could miss someone this much. I’m not sure the meaning it had to him if any and he just liked it. Either way I listen to this song everyday.

[@shelby8101]

It may feel like rock bottom but somebody told me a long time ago there’s such thing as negative numbers for a reason. It can get worse. But it can also get better you just have to truly want it. So many people that don’t even know you want it for you. I know it’s hard after a certain while to care about yourself with whatever trauma or situations and hell you been through I truly understand. Just know it can’t rain forever. A beautiful life is waiting for you and I hope to God you find it and never let go of it. I love all of you beautiful people. God Bless you 💚

Meth has taken away my best friend and my only love. Watching him struggle and become a hollow shell of the beautiful person he once was, is the hardest thing I've ever been through. To mourn someone who isn't even dead yet. To watch their souls disappear in their eyes and become strangers to you. I've tried to fight his addiction for years,but I couldn't change his ways. That's a choice he could never fully make. This song really hits home. I pray that all those lost souls find peace and remember their are people out there who love you.

You are surrounded by love and strength that you cannot see. But we are here. Praying for you, hoping for you. I came to this song years ago because it reminds me of my daughter.

I dealing with this now! My husband my best friend the love of my life , uses every single day and drinks a half gallon of vodka every too day's. I'm fighting every damn day for us, for him but all I seem to get accomplished is drastically hurt! I know I should leave and so many times I want to and never look back, then I'll get a glimpse of my amazing man. Then the thought of leaving and living this life with out him kills me ! God help me..... I'm falling apart. ...... Lost and lonely wife!

[@BarbaraAsquith]

After a blacked out drunken night kicking out a window im blessed to be here today.... This song while being sober has helped me.

[@sekastewart8321]

This song is absolutely heart wrenching and so true. Bless the addicts. RIP Shaun. God I miss you

I am almost 2 year's clean from a long vicious battle with all drugs. I hurt many people along the way and lost many others to this disease. So glad I hit rock bottom and gave up that horrible life I was living. Thank you to everyone that has shared your story's and thank you for this song, it has hit deeply.

[@Blaines-smallengine-repair]

Glad u made it out in a year and 4 months clean from all drugs lol I’ve done them all and destroyed my life my families and my kids. My mother died from cancer while I was in jail. I’ll never forgive myself!! I’m trying my best to navigate thru life and make her proud. God bless n/a

[@johnwilson2384]

@@Blaines-smallengine-repair That has been one of the hardest things for me to do, is forgive myself. Not saying that I ever fully will but I have gotten to a place where I realize that in doing so is the only way that I can move forward and live a happy and healthy life. For me this how I feel

[@breannachambers3969]

This song… it brings me to tears EVERYTIME. I resonate with it so well on so many different levels. From my mom who’s beat that demon to my daddy who passed recently in December from an accidental overdose… to myself. My best friend and love of my life has played it for me a few times as if he’s trying to tell me something without saying it. I’m currently 2 months clean of heroin fentanyl and methamphetamine. You have know idea how much this song has helped changed me. ❤

[@gaugepatterson9964]

Four months clean off ice... This song breaks my heart too.

[@daddyfatsacksmf]

It'll get better at around 10 or 11 months

[@jeremyharris5176]

Sitting here in tears knowing how lucky I am not to have lost any direct family members to addiction. I don’t understand how me and my brothers flew so close to the sun without getting burned but I am so grateful we made it. I can’t say the same for many people I’ve known through the years. Same sad stories I’m sure you are all to familiar with. Beautiful yet painful song.

[@pammartin4197]

Well said

[@cascadeblue7268]

This is such a powerful song! A friend of mine played this and I feel like it was written for her. I've done all I can think of to help her beat her addiction, but I feel I won't win. Addiction truly is a monster that destroys so many lives!

[@Wonderwonfer]

All you can do is pray. Love is not enough. God bless.

[@RDe-dw4sj]

Hope and pray then let go it will kill you inside if you don't.

[@normangladden4320]

Yeah I know. Destroying mine now but yet I'm still going every day. And can't figure out why. Something about this drug. I can't kick. Any ideas anyone

[@pellajoe]

Everyone who is commenting on how long they've been sober......... Excellent job! Keep up the good work. We can all do it together. Im 7 years sober from opiates. We will always be addicts in recovery, but we are all stronger than the addiction!

[@ajaxwargod8229]

Thank you and great message and keep pushing Sobriety. Lost my youngest Brother to the drug's in 16. I never want to see my Mom cry like that. Remember it's the one's you leave behind.

[@matthewragsdale9482]

This song always brings tears to my eyes i fought addiction for along time been clean off meth for years but hit the bottle hard still kinda am. Meth plauged this land and took all my friends and family away for sometime i fought it back a little. Peace and love from a broken guy with nothing but a story.

[@andythomason421]

I was an addict for years and years I made it through the addiction and have been sober for 9 years however my big brother was not able to beat it and died last February met is the devil and I got words of wisdom and encouragement if anyone needs em God bless yall and keep fighting

[@marveloushammer3335]

Going on 2 years sober … One of the greatest accomplishments in my life. I would never turn back the clock to do things differently, I honestly feel like it was a blessing in disguise because I see people and life on a whole different way now. ❤ Beautiful song

[@dustin106]

Amen to that. Sober for around 10 years. Again.

[@Landon_Ghiotto]

This guy’s singing is actually amazing, he doesn’t need auto tune

[@babycaykz]

We should talk sometime
