The singer with the deeper voice is the Rev this song was done in his honour as he knew he didn’t have long to live

The one singing with the red lyric was the late drummer himself

Jimmy had an enlarged heart and knew he would not live past 30. He was 28 and you could see him getting sick. He gained weight and did not look very good at the end. He did the demo to this song and 3 days later died. They decided to have Matt singing with him and Synyster does the harmonies. This was their way of doing a tribute to him and the song.

The rev wrote this one in full, played drums and played the melody. He was a genius. Not sure how true but they say the rev turned this in 3 days before he passed

This song was written by the rev 3 days before his death. Originally titled Death. The revs demo vocals i guess are the ones in red. You can tell the difference between his vocals and M. Shadows vocals. I have always said this band was a sped up Guns and Roses as their songs follow their music. On the Nightmare album I believe slash from guns and roses appears on it as well. This song reminds me of November rain by gu s and roses. So this song could have been Revs goodbye.

The bowl cut dude needs to not be insecure, he's knows what's up but scared of his friend thinking he's not a 😺l

The reason the drummer sounds like that is because he was near the end of his life, he was always hammered or drugged and his voice was breaking and cracking up, also he was hungover the day he recorded it haha, other songs that have him singing is, critical acclaim, A little piece of heaven, Afterlife, and a bit of "Almost easy" and "scream"

You guys just don't get it .. The reason why his voice wasn't clear and sounded like that and all is because it was meant to be that way he was hurting I'm sure of it and it shows in his voice . The Rev has a remarkable voice it was his last song he wrote and sang . So it's a goodbye song if you will which makes the song that much more powerful . He was a genius ! and yeah he knew he wouldn't live past 30 as many have said here . All respect and love for "The Rev " foREVer I seen him near the end and yeah if you know "The Rev a lot he did gain weight probably from the med's he took and his failing health .

It's not written about the drummers death, he wrote it. It's the last thing he wrote before he died. The red lyric part is good singing taken from a demo tape he'd made.

Nightwish has a simular song where Thoumas commits suicide in the song. Its called poet and the pendulum. Difference Thou.as's parent talked him into committing suicide in the song instead of real life.
