Top Comments of this video!! :3
lo and behold my doubt
ball away like coal
under graceless light
now and before I pass
like some old returning ghost
lend to me your hallowed gaze tonight
pressed to the wakened walls
like some wayward kind
summoned by some hollow wasted mind
stark in my naked pose
with your arms upon my side
lend to me your hallowed frame tonight
I will not lie
I will not loathe
I will not waste any days I have left in my soul
I will stand
I will stand now in your might
I will not crash
I will not burn
and I will pay any debt to your hands that i owe
for your still
your still unbeaten life
now that I'm nought for one
and my blood is red
flowing from the interstate again
braved by your hearts resolve
and my body's endless toil
lead me in your hallowed sway to bed
slow, slight
close and inspired
you spark some great fire
and hang if from my coatless frame tonight
I will not trade
I will not toil
and I won't stray from this bed
I will not stray from this soil
until my bones
my bones lay with it all
I will not raise
forgotten flags
but I will step to the hill with
your name in my cap
for your still
your still unbeaten life
your still
your still unbeaten life
rise, get up I'll sing you to life
let every breath in you defy
whatever's pulling you to god's own kingdom
and here's to sticking fingers in our ears
they said we'd have a couple years
you're dead on paper but hey we're still here
fight like every breath in you's a strike
from some great fighter in the sky
and breath abundantly tonight
flash the wicked bumps with killer stares
say "I'm not fighting you for air,
don't call me dead 'cause hey i'm still here"
and dance atop the grave that has your name
for what it's worth, I'll do the same

This has to be their most underrated song. The power and soul at 5:52 makes this song their best.

Youre one of the only things stopping me from killing myself this year. I saw you live in melbourne a week ago and i never stopped crying the whole gig - you've saved my life countless times this year. At one point you looked in my general direction, but in that moment it felt like you looked directly at me and sung 'be brave'. And im trying. Thankyou. You cant tell how many lives youve touched and will continue to touch with your music. Thankyou. Thankyou so fucking much.
hi there. Little 2021 update on this post! I'm still here - fighting, trying so hard to find the joy in life. im not better, tbh I dont think i ever will be, but every day i work my hardest to (slit the through of fear and) be brave and well, persevere. It gets better, and it gets worse. all i can do is keep moving forward.
thankyou for the kind words on this comment over the years, 2018 was a rough time, but im glad i saw it through.

Imagine This Moment bored flipping channels... I see MTV Unplugged, have respect for most groups Unplugged! And this group appears like a dream out of nowhere and now I claim witness to this great wonderful group "Gang of Youths" being brought to me thus I will make sure to bring them everywhere with me. What a wonderful world this is. There is still hope!

A few weeks ago, my aunt died of a rare cancer, she was only 49. The night before she passed, I played this song on the piano next to her room and broke down. Such a beautiful song with so many meanings that I will always remember
