The song makes me think of my mom when I was on heroin. She never gave up on me. Now I'm 5 years clean and I talked to her on the phone almost every day and go to church with her on Sundays. Listen guys I was one of those people that everybody literally thought was a lost cause that would never change his life and I turned it around. I don't care how bad of an addict or alcoholic you are you can get your life back and find happiness but you have to make that decision and it's actually a really hard one to make but I can promise you you'll never regret it if you do it. If you're not ready that's okay but you'll be ready one day and take that opportunity and take your life back.

Also, the way he (& he might've been joking, who knows, but still) kinda went, "What?" egotistically, twice, at the end, just made me go from wanting to "Like" this video to not liking it. (Makes it seem like he didn't learn from his big mistake)

But these people had no idea what this internal battle was doing to him until he was gone. This song takes on a whole new meaning thinking about my big bro.

Sorry for your loss. It's scary how often this happens. People who seemingly have it all seem to struggle as much as everyone else. I often wonder if It's not as much a matter of depression as it is a lack of fulfillment in modern society's definition of having it all.

This song gets me every time. From 2014-2016 I was living in my truck and my thoughts were getting so dark. In 2016, I attempted suicide 5 times (details on how are not important). One day in January 2018 I sat down and did a "life review" and wrote things I've always wanted to do in my life. I kept coming back to Forensic Psychology. Then on another page, I wrote goals I had to accomplish in order to attain them. I'm 36 years old and now a Senior at Sam Houston State (February 2020). I'm getting my Bachelor's degree in Victim Studies and minoring in Psychology in December (2020). In the up and coming months, I'm applying for the PhD level program of Psychology with Emphasis in Forensics to become a Forensic Psychologist. I still have that list of goals in my wallet and I look at it from time to time to keep the drive going. That I'm not done. When I get my own office as a Forensic Psychologist, this list of goals will go into a frame and I'll hang it right beside my Bachelor's and PhD degrees on the wall behind my desk to remind me everyday as I walk in that I accomplished my goals to get to that point. I've scratched and clawed my way to where I am now with determination, will, focus and hard work. My son (11 years old) is my happy thought that helped me through this. I want him to know there are going to be detours in life. But don't give up. He is the greatest detour to my legacy. I love you, bud!

@jerrodroberts7873 4 жыл бұрын

@@jerrodroberts7873 that's great, sir! Sometimes hitting rock bottom is the only way for us to see the light. The only way from that point is up. Stick with that list. Add to it as well as checking off your accomplishments as you go. Don't give up, my friend 😁 When I graduate with my Bachelor's this December, I'm getting my son and his mom down here from out of state because that will be the icing on the cake to this one of many accomplishments I will complete. Having my son there as I walk across the stage will be the best feeling in the world.

When I first heard this song I was coming out of a very violent relationship and newly sober. I literally pulled over to the side of the road and bawled my eyes out. This song was one that literally saved my life. "The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won't touch again. In my sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night. While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight." That verse cut so deep and I will never forget it. I believe it is one of the best verses/lines ever written.

This will be one of your greatest journies. Someone who knew my situation told me to listen to Hate Me to understand what my son chose to do. The lyrics and video about his Mother hit so hard that I immediately loved to hate it and hated to love it. Watching and listening to Hate Me became a toturous therapy that enabled me to understand a major family problem and ignited a desire to hear and learn more about Blue October. It was quickly obvious that Blue October was Justin's dream and he had a story so I listened to music and watched videos and interviews in chronological order. That helped me understand how and when the band was created, the nasty disease that almost destroyed Justin and the gifts bestowed upon him that càused band members to believe he was worth their support though his actions negatively affected their lives and almost destoyed Blue October. When I finished watching and reading everything I could find about Justin Furstenfeld I knew someone will want to tell his story. The next day I read about the documentary being made about Justin. I would recommend that anyone who's new to Blue October try to listen to their songs or albums in proper sequence so they understand the trials and transformations of Justin, the band and their music. Some of their earler music reminded me of head bangers but that quickly passed and the music, lyrics and Justin's voice combined to make beautiful sense. Every member of Blue October has a unique talent that's used to compliment each other and fulfill their common goal for the band to be their lifelong career.

You should listen to the original of this, which is the version they played on the radio. I do like the acoustic better, but I love the line when his voice changes in the original- "So I'll drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind" Then it changes again a little, - "And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind" I just think it sounds better and he should do it acoustic the same. Like everyone else on here, I've fought with same demons. Been clean & sober almost 9 yrs now. That's definitely an accomplishment someone helped me with and I'll never touch again.

Justin went to to college in San Marcos tx where I was born I met him before he got famous he lived in the same place as my uncle. He was a really sweet guy he said I could tell people I was his guest so I could skateboard there. Met him again after they got big at the target I was struggling with my addiction and homeless he spoke to me he actually remembered me as a kid he told me tomorrow will be better keep trying never give up .then I met him again at industry a restaurant in San Marcos I'm sober and have a kid now I told him the story. They say never meet your favorite celebs because you will be disappointed Justin is a different breed a true genuine Soul who really does care he almost cried when I told him my story he even gave me a hug and signed an autograph super cool sweet genuine dude keep it up Justin don't let Fame ruin your heart you were put here to heal. 3 minutes of your time saved my life when no one else cared you've inspired me to be better you never know what someone is going through this guy didn't have to care he didn't have to do anything but he did and I'm thankful he did because I get to enjoy watching my daughter grow and seeing life change and unfold and just be a better human. It's ok to beat yourself up a little and want more it's healthy to an extent but don't let it defeat you.

I too Justin, dedicated this to someone who would rather hate me than see my love...painful reality of parenthood sometimes...easier for him to follow the hate than be strong enough to open his heart to me. Felt the pain man, felt the pain...

That little story of Justin's at the start really got me. I'm not like that anymore but as an 18 year old I really felt like I was the best thing in earth and I treated people like shit for my own selfish reasons and to feel good about myself. I too believe everything happens for a reason, so I don't really regret it per se, because I'm exactly where I want to be now in life at 30, but sometimes I do wish I didn't treat the people I loved so badly. They didn't deserve it. I hope one day I can grow enough balls to apologise to those people.

This song touches me in so many ways. I liked this song when it was new and after 10 years I tear up when I hear it. Justin it's the best apology I have ever heard. I did not know you wrote it for this reason but really incredible to replace what I had thought it was for. I use this for my Mother and how when we were young we never give the respect that our parents deserve and it still fits for that too. Thanks for your passionate song I will cherish and share it as much as I can.

I've rediscovered Blue October recently. I love this band. Keep up the good work guys and continue to stay humble. Your humility is what brought me back.

This song shifted my view of my parents and allowed me to reconcile with them after trying my hardest to get away after feeling like I ruined their lives. I might not be here today with Blue October and Switchfoot.
