Listening to your music makes me forget about all my problems. Except one: having to decide which of all your songs is my favorite

I’ll tell you a little secret: This won’t be the only time I listen to this masterpiece.

"Fight a war every day that no one sees" i can relate to that part all to well

"Maybe I should say something, but I'm terrified you'll put the blame on me" It hurts to know how many people relate to this line. No one should be scared to share their story.

Citizen Soldier doesn't even have a single bad song, I wonder how that is possible.

If you ever feel stupid... Remember there are people who disliked this song

This hits deep as shit when you deal with PTSD...

Everyone has that one secret they'll take to their graves.....

Here's to all the abuse victims 🥂 May they find relief from their pain and secrets 😔

"Secrets are dark things. They don't exist within the light. They glow faintly in forgotten corners, in mysterious mind nooks, in our lost memory maps. Secrets are the shadows of our soul"..🥀xx Every song is always so relatable every word just hits so close ♡🥀xx

As someone that has been through some terrible things this song hits home.

I'm sure you are not going to read this, but: I found your songs when I was very sad and somehow you made me feel less alone. I'm better now, but your songs are art to me. I identify with many, the rhythm, the voice and even the lyric videos are completely amazing. I'm surprised you are not more famous... I've following you for a long time, but I never comment, sorry. *Keep it up, thank you. ♡*

Whoever disliked this doesnt know a masterpiece

The little pause at 1:33 really sells it. "It's my little... secret." And again at 3:17 it just *screams* hesitation, the way they don't finish it and then repeat it, it's just SO FUCKING GOOD I AM S C R E A M I N G. It reminds me of when someone is actually going to tell a secret, they hesitate. They're hesitating to say it because revealing a secret is a hard thing to do. You never know how the person receiving said secret will react and then you get nervous and your anxiety is being thrown out the building through the roof via super cannon straight into the friggin moon all because you just told your best friend of your deepest secret. Do they still like you, do they despise your very existence? It's always a gamble when you reveal a secret. Especially if it's incredibly personal like some kind of trauma or something similar, I think depression is a common example of that. Even though this music video is centered around victim shaming I think it still applies because depression is commonly hidden and remains a secret until it is inevitably uncovered.

Very good song. Phrase that saved my life: "I am not what has happened to me. I am what I choose to become."

This and "Hope it Haunts You" really hits me! I'm a survivor of sexual assault, and was something I was blamed for and was told I was lying about because the person was my fiancee at the time! So I couldn't speak about it for years. I'm still working through it in therapy, but these songs definitely help. Especially when so many amazing people comment and I feel like I'm not alone. Sending love and positivity to everyone💞

As someone who's dealt with the stigma surrounding mental health for most of my life and a counseling student focusing on trauma, I just want to thank you for using your voice and your platform to highlight such important issues. I'm always amazed by the depth in your songs and the way you approach the topics you represent. You have given a voice and strength to so many people with your music 🖤🤍🖤

"I've learned to suffer silently Fight a war every day that no one sees It's torture always remembering I don't want them to think I'm weak So I bite my tongue until it bleeds" 💔❤

“You always remember the past” “just forget about it” And this song explains everything…

This song perfectly describes how it feels to live with ptsd

A band means something to the listener when they don't even have to press play to have the song liked and saved. And I'm one of those people with this band.

I seriously love how guys have been covering so many heavy subjects recently. Most people are afraid to do this, which is understandable, so it's very nice to find a talented band capable of covering these issues well and inspiring others to move forward and help be the change. I adore these songs, the messages, the vocals and instruments and jist everything about them.

I am 15 and I have been a victim of abuse since I was 11... I sought out help, and my screams haven't reached anyone. I connect with this song on a very deep level and your music gets be through another day. I have thought about suicide multiple times and I have several attempts on my record. You're music saved me and I want to thank you for reaching out to people in need.

Just heard "Would Anyone Care" For the first time, had to check out more of there music. All I have to say is love your music and hope you guys continue.

Great message! Why is victim shaming accepted by society? Why is it the victim's fault? People don't choose to be abused 😩 Who agrees? ⁉️

"...So I bite my tongue until it bleeds" is SUCH A GOOD LINE I do love me some clever rhymes

For me this song can go two ways. One way is someone battling memories of what someone did to them, the second, it is a battle within themselves for not being what they feel is not good enough. Absolutely love the track. Keep it going guys!!!

i told my friend about citizen soldier my friend: he has a hot voice actually me @_@ you mean to tell me that this masterpiece the music the style the lyrics filled with emotions and truth that many can relate too and all you think is that the guy's voice is hot? my friend: yeah me: -_- me: your not wrong but still tho @W@

For me its still very difficult to reveal all the hurt that I've been through, I try but there are some thing's I can't and I don't know if I will ever find the courage to speak of them. There will always be people that will never understand. That go out of their way to tell you to just get over it, I wish it was as easy as that. I know that I've said this many times but it is true.. You WILL always be the voice to those that are struggling. You guys inspire so many. Maybe one day if we continue to stay strong we will all be able to show our appreciation to you for all that you have done.. ♡🥀xx

As a veteran fighting my ptsd Citizen Soldier has always made songs that I can relate to. This one is no different. There’s so many things people have to deal with but it’s not something people are able to talk with someone about. Even if it’s a therapist, friend, family, or loved one. So many people truly feel that this is their little secret. Thank you Citizen Soldier for another amazing song putting into words what so many of us are unable to find the words for

It took me 3 years to even talk about what my abusive ex did to me, I felt exactly like this and I still can't really talk about parts of what he's done to me, 6 years on. This song describes how I feel when I could never put it to words. A beautiful song, thank you

I've never found a band that perfectly matched my thoughts until I found you guys, i love this band and every song is a masterpiece

The fact that you released this song about not being able to sleep at 1 AM was a premeditated decision? 😅 Also, it’s great! I love the melody!

This is the reason why it's so easy to talk to people on the internet. When we talk to people we know, we fear they will judge us, but when you know nothing about the other person, only knowing what they want us to call them, it's easier to say that tiny thing that's been hurting you, pushing you down, and even the things we would never admit. As much as it would be best to talk about these things in person, to have consolation and assurance, that fear is more often than not, so over powering, we would rather suffer in silence, than to show people how weak we really are.

That's another song to add to my playlist that represents my life!

This is way too relatable. Reminds me of my own little secret. Listening to this physically hurts.

It feels sad to think When you grow up , no one will be there for you to share your pain , its all yours....Your little Secret!

Jake's voice gives me goosebumps 😭 I love this so much. I can relate to this song so much. I've been diagnosed with PTSD at a pretty early age and the flashbacks usually haunt me at night making it very hard for me to sleep and when I do I always end up having really bad nightmares about my past. I'm so glad I've found this band. They've really helped me just in this short few months I've been listening to them 🖤🖤🖤

This songs sums up my PTSD, every day I try to sleep but memories keep flooding into my brain that I cant get rid of

I’ve been fighting my PTSD for 3 years now, I’m happy that this song reminds me I’m not alone

"Seen so many things I can't unsee; I've learned to suffer silently". So powerful and so true of trauma survivors

*WAIT- WAIT I LOVE THIS I-* You guys seriously are amazing- you never fail to impress me🤧✨

Sweet buttery jesus I love this song. Long Live Citizen Soldier!!!

Dealing with the memory of sexual assault This song explains everything Helps a million

I am actually speechless right now.. this song came out at the exact time as I'm battling my problems... and I absolutely love it

This hits too close to home. I just found this man and his wonderful voice. This group is amazing

“Suffocating in doubt all night face down” relatable asf

Haven’t heard a bad song from this band yet. Really love this one, wish I could give it more than one like.

This song hit mehard as i know that im not alone with this struggle. This is relatable to me because of what my mother has done in my past.

Me sobbing in corner: Why Do All Your Songs Hit Home So Hard?!

The lyrics "trying anything to forget what you did to me" hit me a different way

"Fight a war everyday that no ones sees" It's scary what we can hide behind a smile.

This make me think of my last relationship... Hope the next one will be more joyful. God, I pray I will be fine and that he wont ever find a way to contact me again... It does haunt me at times... Afraid to love again at times... It's scary to put all your love and trust in someone else hands. It got me in pieces... Shattered... Slowly building myself up though. Finally well I love your songs and I am thankful I can hear them. I also suffer from depression and a high case of GAD. It feels... good to know you are not alone. All the love and please stay safe 🖤🖤

Fun fact: This guy's music never diasappoint 👌❤

The fact that they reply to the comments just shows that they care. I can't think of anyone else who does this. This song hits like a truck when you're in recovery for self-harm. Your music has helped me to come to terms with my past and I can't thank you enough for that x

This song is so important, I’m so happy you guys wrote it, mad respect ✊

About 2 years ago, I lost my grandpa, my best friend to a car accident and my guardian(uncle) to pneumonia all in the course of about 4 months. I went to a therapist, tried to talk about it, I just couldn't. Then about a year and a half ago, I slit my wrist. I was found by a security guard on the apt rooftops just in time to save, I was taken to the ER and kept there for a few days while in critical condition. I survived, and I hated myself for it. I was closely watched over 24/7 after that incident. Not soon after, I discovered your music, it helped me cope with whatever I was feeling at the time, all the anxiety, suicidal thoughts and depression. Your songs helped me put everything I felt into words. I started talking to my therapist, I started feeling good for the first time in months. Now, even though I have such thoughts even now, it's not as bad as it used to be. I have healthy relationships with my friends, a really nice girlfriend and I just graduated as valedictorian a few months ago. Your music was a huge inspiration for me and thousands of others like me who had experienced loss, depression and anxiety and your music gave a voice to all of us. I owe you so much and I sincerely thank you for it. I hope you gain a lot more success and you reach out to a lot of people who might need your music to help them cope with tough times.

Never clicked so fast in my life and never been so surprised when i saw u release a new song great as always

I think you guys are my spirit animal.. Words that get so close to what's in my head. So far every song I have listened to resonates with my whole life. The depression, the insomnia, the anxiety.. All of it.. Right here in music.

I left a marriage of 18yrs where the depths of the abuse was concealed with a loving husband support a wife with a mental illness. He used my mental illness to control me beyond imagination. I keep picking up emotion baggage that I didn’t know I had. I know what you mean by little secrets because I can’t mention anything to my new husband. Thank you guys. Having that one song that relates to your life somehow soothes the pain and pour out the words that are stuck in the heart.

Oh my goodness, I'm in literal tears after listening to this masterpiece. It's hard to explain what I'm feeling right now, it's a mix between being absolutely breathless and feeling like someone finally understands me. I'm pretty sure I have moderate depression. I'm constantly surrounded in family drama, friend drama, and just drama that I don't want to be in but can't get out of (I'm not allowed to leave my house ever since this pandemic happened.) I'm not one to self-diagnose and this result is only from a few online tests I've done in secret on medical websites. A couple weeks ago, I decided to try and get help and, possibly, get an official diagnose. I was crying when my mom found me, I was actually listening to Gunshot Lullabies. So anyways, I tell my parents, they don't believe me for anything, even when I told them that I have attempted to cut my wrists in the past with scissors, even when a couple of months before my school councilor phoned home because she though I was suicidal, which is true, and I received counselling for around 4 months. Instead, I just got asked if I was doing it for attention, they said I have nothing to be depressed about, and they criticized me when I told them some of the stuff I was depressed about (a few incidents that happened years ago that, even after talking them out, I can't let go off.) Then the next day they asked me if I was feeling depressed, and in all honesty, why would I say yes when I got called an attention seeker the day before? So of course I said no and plastered on the biggest fake smile I could muster. Then for the next couple of days, my mom, in a way, made fun of my "non-existent" depression, saying I can't be depressed but want to hurt myself and constantly, constantly popping out our private talk in public situations. Even when I recently came out to my parents as pansexual, I'm told it's normal for girls to want to experiment and that I've never dated a girl (I have online dated girls a few times, never physically dated any.) so I wouldn't know, even when I've felt this way before I knew what pansexuality was and what the "normal standards" are . Little do my parents know that sometimes when I'm in my room, I'm crying because my demons are tearing me apart. When I hold a bottle of pills longer than I should be, I'm thinking about how much I would have to take to overdose. When my own mother says I'm worthless when she's in a fit on anxiety, I'll remember it for as long as I live. The only person I feel comfortable to talk to is my best friend, I'd say we're practically sisters. It's better than having no one, but it hurts that I'm not comfortable telling my parents anything personal about myself. I just realized how long this is, sorry for that. I just feel safe in the comment section telling my story, your music has changed my life. Whenever I get into a rut of self doubt and my demons come back to haunt me, I turn your music up real high and sing, sometimes it's just sitting on my bed crying everything out, and that quiets them down for a little bit. Thank you guys so, so much from the bottom of my heart for what you do, it's helped me and lots of others cope. Much love to you guys and God bless

"The weight of this is breaking me to keep it under lock and key" This line really says a lot to me. Fortunately I met someone who I can unlock everything to. To everyone out there dealing with this, telling someone you trust really helps. There are people who care, silencing your pain only gives it fuel to have it build up over time.

Not many bands tackle themes like you guys do. I've never felt so listened to. People always talk about pedophilia, but don't think of online grooming as a way of being traumatized- it took me 4 years to even think of the experience as actually being traumatic. After my first therapist did absolutely nothing with my story, I thought I was just overreacting. There are so many forms of abuse, big or small. There are victims from all walks of life. Society has to see and acknowledge this. Thank you for making this.

My little secret would be suffering from sleep paralysis every single day for the last 2 years. I don't want to go to sleep, but after listening to you guys I feel like I can take on another round of torture. In case you read this, thank you so much, you're actually keeping me alive.

Your songs always hit right in the heart. They always say what needs to be said, what the world needs to know. Thank you, citizen soldier, for everything you're doing. And also for amazing inspiration for the series I'm writing.

Few seconds in and I'm in love already, you guys are so creative ❤️❤️

I enjoy this kind of rock based music. The type that feels like it’s telling a story instead of putting words left and right. Has a good rhythm also.

This is the song you wish you could share with your family but you're to afraid and ashamed.

Every song is a masterpiece. The best band is this world.

Even though I'm a teen living in a pop world, I always keep coming back here. No band makes songs this great!!! I genuinely love Citizen soldier. My first song ever of yours was 15 minutes of Fame and I absolutely loved it. Thank you for this song!! My list of favourites only keeps getting longer.♥️

It hurts when you know you can't tell anyone. Yet another song that's just too damn beautiful.

I remember when I first heard this song I legit got the chills because of how much I relate to this.

Wow, you really do know how we feel. I feel like my past is still haunting me. And that it won't let go even if I tried to fight it..🖤 Thankyou soo much Citizen Soldier❤ You really understand your fans, and we understand how you feel❤ Love youu so much ❤❤🤍

"Suffocating in doubt while laying face down" Thats literally me every night. This song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love how you can put such dark themes and true tragedy into song and make it good.

citizen soldiers songs always tell a story keep on doing what your doing guys 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I'm so glad that KZfaq recommended yall to me 3 to 4 months ago! Yall have made excellent music! Yall are just amazing! Love yall!

Citizen Soldier once again writing about my life. I'm so glad I found these guys. Great work.

Holy fuck this was literally me last night. Yet I’ve been in therapy for years- it seems to make no difference when the memories attack -hold on by the skin of my teeth to my 2 years of sobriety. Thank you Citizen Soldier. You make us survivors feel less alone

can we take the time to appericate the background? 👏👏 Cheers for whoever edits theses music videos!! 👏👏👏

Loving the new song!! The edit is lit! The music is addicting! The lyrics are connecting to me! A new song added, and in repeat! 😍

It’s like Seether meets Bad Wolves.

This band has helped me in my darkest days. There will never by words to express how grateful I am to these people thanks for being awesome guys

Damn.. it's sad to see how so many relate. I'm glad I'm not alone. When we cry for help we're called liers but when we die were called selfish

The 6 people who disliked this clearly failed an IQ test and don't have ears.

Every song, I still battle the demons in my head. Singing along at top of my lungs is so cathartic. The relief feels so good and it’s always good to know that someone understands or has been in your shoes. You’re awesomesauce and I can only imagine how many people you’ve touched with your music and just how many have been pulled back from the edge knowing that things can get better

I've been gone for some time, but boy am I glad that this is what I cam back to.

Actually amazing how every time Citizen Soldier uploads a song, I have to mentally prepare for being hit with a truck of feelings.. and I was always taught to suppress everything. Just.. mesmerized by this band.

I know this probably isn’t the song premise but this describes perfectly how it felt when I suffered from addiction and I was afraid that everyone I know would turn their backs on me. Thank you so much for this song

Every song just hits the feels so hard. They are so amazing and heartfelt and I feel each one says how one person or another feels in their lives, so many of them hit home for me. You are a truly amazing band and I hope you are around for a long time to come. Stay positive in this crazy world. God bless you all.

I feel so down right now😭😭😭 your songs hit my heart so bad😭😭 thank you for making feel I'm not alone

Awesome as always ❤️❤️❤️

Cada vez logran impresionarme con tan hermosas canciones 🥰♥️

This band helped me through a dark time in my life, and it‘s good to know their still producing incredible songs.

honestly you probably wont read this but this song is now my anthem cause no one listens to me about my pain my mental trauma nothing but u helped me atleast tell people what i think even if they dont believe me

I love this Band ❤️

There's a chance you won't see this... I resonate so much with this song. I've been through hell and back, recently discovered something that makes sense, and overall been feeling like I need to hide my feelings and put on a mask. I love you guys. You make songs that actually matter and reach the hearts of millions. Thank you for releasing this song. It means so much to me. ❤❤❤

Music is my escape from reality

As a victim of rape by my brother I totally relate to this song. Thank you very much for your music, it makes me feel understood and less alone ❤
