I walked my son's casket out of the church in December 2019 with this very song playing. We shared a love for music and good whiskey. We sat on a hill in May of 2018 and sang along to this with Shine Down at River Riot. Tomorrow is the second anniversary of his passing and I miss him everyday. Don't take life for granted as it is too short and fragile. Rest in peace son.

When i was 17 my life was just too much to bare, I lost my dad six years earlier, I never had any friends and was bullied every day in school. I had taken the S&W .45 my father left me, stole a bottle of Whiskey and was sitting in my car down a back road... That was the only time that gun had ever jammed and didn't fire. 22 years later I have two sons and the sweetest little angel. I know my dad stepped down from God's grace and said he wasnt ready for me to join him that night. This song hits so hard, and i just pray none of my children ever truly understand how deep this song and how close we were in never meeting. I love you dad, I miss you every day. But i know you saved me that night, I just wish you could meet your grandkids. Dennis is a spitting image of you and he is named after the greatest man who I've ever known... You

I blamed everyone and everything I hated myself for not doing enough to make her well. I was lost for the next couple of years, chasing something her ghost idk. 😢😢😢😢 I still miss her. I always will. I love you Tonya. Thank you for being a part of my life and giving us a wonderful son that grew to be a great man.

Great song, but the lyrics are widely misinterpreted. "...it actually had nothing to do with a gun. The 45 was a metaphor for the world and ‘staring down the barrel of a 45’ was about staring down at this planet and what it throws at you, how you have maneuvered through your life.” - Brent Smith in an interview with American Songwriter. So when you look at it that way, it's really a song about reflection and not meant to be dark in any way. Regardless, Brent Smith is a masterful songwriter indeed.

My dad was killed in a car accident last month. I know he loved Shinedown and this song. I remember hearing it when I was younger, I’m 23 now and listening to this song makes me remember the good times I had with him and I couldn’t be more thankful for its existence. It helped me get through my worst days recently.

I hope the pain starts to come a little less. My mom died when I was 15.. biggest regret I have is keeping her buried.. I didn't cry I didn't talk about her I didn't celebrate.. and the days I actually remember I had a mom. It almost kills me inside and I have forgotten so much. This was before we could make real memories or even have her on video so I could remember her voice.. the pain never goes away, and the times it hits it will feel like the first time every time. But the days do spread out and happen less and less. You'll be okay❤

But I just want you to know I s3en your comment and if you ever need someone to talk to cry to I will listen and if not just know I pray for you. He walks by your side everyday. He will be your angel until you one day meet him again. I know my words don't make it better there is nothing that possibly could I just for some reason felt your pain bc I read tons of comments on videos and never felt the need to say anything to anyone until now.

There's just something about this song...it released as I was going through a separation and subsequent divorce and suffering through so many depressing days...it remained on top of my playlist as I transitioned into single life...then also as I met my soulmate and we've been together for 18 years this week. EVERY time I hear it, my eyes tear up because it reminds me of how I came through such a darkness in my life and finally the light broke through. Thank you Shinedown, you will never know me but please know how you helped me with just a single song.

Send away for a priceless gift One not subtle, one not on the list Send away for a perfect world One not simply, so absurd In these times of doing what you're told Keep these feelings, no one knows What ever happened to the young man's heart? Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 Swimming through the ashes of another life No real reason to accept the way things have changed Staring down the barrel of a 45 Send a message to the unborn child Keep your eyes open for a while In a box high up on the shelf, left for you, no one else There's a piece of a puzzle known as life Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight What ever happened to the young man's heart? Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell apart And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 Swimming through the ashes of another life No real reason to accept the way things have changed Staring down the barrel of a 45 Everyone's pointing their fingers Always condemning me And nobody knows what I believe I believe And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 Swimming through the ashes of another life No real reason to accept the way things have changed Staring down the barrel of a 45 And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 And I'm swimming through the ashes of another life There is no real reason to accept the way things have changed Staring down the barrel of a 45, 45

Just as the phoenix before it was reborn into its true self; it had to fall, to burn THRU the ash So it was able to RISE UP as The Phoenix.... Growing, Rebirth, being Awoken into 'the unknown' is the scariest & one of the most painful parts of life But HAS to happen to become the 'being' you were created to be & not only find your purpose but step into it. (The poor butterfly curled up in his caccoon to die, instead he re-awoke as a beautiful butterfly.) God works in mysterious ways...SO during your swim I hope you find strengths you never knew you had & courage to step into your new life Don't be afraid of the unknown, the worst battles are given to the strongest soldiersGod knows what he's doin ~Stay Strong~

"The will to live, will always outweigh the ability to die." -Brent Smith's friend Those that don't understand this song, think it is depressing. Those that get it, realize that this song holds a message of hope. To everyone still trying to figure out how to unlock the missing puzzle pieces of life... I don't have a solution, but I get it. I'm in tears as I write this, because I have wanted to die almost every day for the last four years, when everything in my life took a turn for the worse. This song is a good reminder that continuing to live is the only way to find those missing pieces... it's the only way to figure out what "happened to the young man's heart." Life is long, and often painful. Just existing often feels like slamming your head into a concrete wall. Keep fighting. Keep looking for those moments of hope, even when everything looks hopeless. Something as simple as the words of a stranger may contain the key to unlocking the ability to experience joy once again. I'm not there yet. I'm still stuck in shitty circumstances, and want to die most days of the week. But I at least have a few days here and there, where I can actually smile... and sometimes even laugh. It never becomes a perfect world, but it can become a better world for you.

It started from birth, raised in a satanic cult, raped ritualized, trafficked, exploited and shunned by my family because I escaped the cult at 15. I'm 53 now and I'm still in recovery. 15+ years therapy. ( Drug free). What ever you are going through I understand and believe you. But guess what. You have been in hell, in hell now! But YOU R STILL HERE FOR A REASON. YOU R THE REASON, don't you see. You have. I have special abilities to make it through hell and back. WHY? WHY U? We have to have powers to face the demons and make it out alive. (I'm not talking RELIGION I'm talking spiritually.) Do you know how strong a human had to be to go through hell and back and make it out alive! Of course your gonna have scars. Those are reminders of your battles in hell.

My brother in law took his life this April. Leaving 3 kids behind. While many are sad, or mad at him, I’m sitting in my hotel room night after night understanding his choice, and I am jealous of him a little. I travel 100% for work, so constantly alone, and sometimes I think “I’m done with this life, I’m ready to see the next”. All the joy in life has been gone for years, now I’m just going through the motions…

I remember seeing Shinedown at a small local bar shortly after this album came out. This song was PHENOMENAL live. The crowd were all singing, everyone was sharing this beautiful moment. The guy next to me had tears streaming down his face, I don't even think he realized it. I didn't really listen to Shinedown much after their first album, but damn... this was definitely a good one.

The deep sadness that underlies this song needs to be our motivation to never go back to hell. Stay strong everyone. DGAF what color,entnicity you are. You are who you are. Nothing will ever change in this world if we don't work together to do so. Lets never be that person with a gun in their mouths again.

When it does come it’s monthly what I used to make each week. My point is, thank God I figured out the secret to happiness. Do this and you will become happy. Every day when you wake up make sure that your thoughts are about someone else. What they need or what they want. Plan to do something every day for someone to make their life better or easier. Ever since I started doing this instead of worrying about myself I have become very very happy. Try this it works.

Not about killing himself or death. Said it himself. And I was like ‘why? When it actually had nothing to do with a gun’. The 45 was a metaphor for the world and ‘staring down the barrel of a 45’ was about staring down at this planet and what it throws at you, how you have maneuvered through your life.” “It’s also about reflection and it’s a coming of age story,” he added. “I’m singing the song and talking about myself but it’s also a rebirth, coming into adulthood, realizing some of the stuff maybe your parents kept from you to give you a childhood before you had to face the world. It’s really an example of how life is give-and-take.

My dad died December 13th 1995. Ruled it a suicide. But believe my stepmother murdered him. She lied so much. Said he ate breakfast and then he ate a handful of opiates. It was a lie. Autopsy said there was no drugs or food in his system. I was 11. It stole my whole life. I have 11 years sober now. Closed casket so I didn’t get to see him to say goodbye and that I love him.

I love how Brent Smith expresses the world as the "45". I recently read an interview where he expressed this fact. Then, as I listen to the lyrics of this video, he expresses that, "Everyone is pointing their fingers, always condemning me, no one knows what I believe!". So F'ING true. Love ya peeps, but do your homework before judging!!❤

I lost my mama when she was 55 and I have never been the same. My mother in law got brain cancer the same thing. Luckily lived 7 year but not the same since surgery and radiation.

Regardless of losing my family, I will NOT say "I know how you feel." Everyone processes differently even in shared grief. What I WILL tell you, is it's okay to grief for as short or long as you need to. It's okay to tell the world you aren't okay. It's okay to try to be tough for everyone else so long as you are still remembering TO TAKE CARE OF YOU! Strength is not defined by never faltering, but recognizing, acknowledging the falls you make and deciding to get back up. My love, prayers, and condolences are sent to you and your loved ones. If you EVER need to talk come on back here....I promise I'll truly listen (not pretend to just so I can make comments, give unwanted opinions, and such) without judgement and a empathetic heart! ❤🕊❤

I know everyone else has there with their own way of getting over it. I am not over my mama yet fight with my husband saying that I don't know how he is going through. It breaks my heart because I was there with him every step of the way and I have a hard time with losing his just like his 4 sisters. Plus I know if I lost him too my heart would break even more. It has been broken so much with losing people. I just wanted to let everyone know that I am dealing with a lot of things myself and I hope everyone gets comfort.

January 2007 my dad ODed and died. In March 2007 Shinedown came to our town and I had handwritten a note asking they play this in his memory. They did. I got to meet the band after the show. I probably sounded psychotic, rambling on about how drugs were destroying lives here...I tried not to take up too much of their time, I really just wanted to thank them. Brent hugged me and it was just one human expressing condolences to another. I appreciate that memory more than he could ever know. He told me he was sure my dad was there because they had a couple of technical glitches during the song, idk if he was just being kind or if he meant it. That being said, a few years later when it came out he was going to rehab for his family....I cried. I was so proud of this man I barely know other than his stage presence. He fought and beat his addiction, and now his kids and wife will have a father and husband. ❤ We all fall down sometimes and it takes courage and determination to pick yourself up and continue on, to do something selfless for the sake of your family. This man will always have my respect and admiration. I wish him and his family nothing but the best.

I remember I picked up this album in 03. I was constantly on the search for new bands literally spending all my money on albums. I started the album and thought ok they are decent THEN this song comes on and I'm literally blown away by what I'm hearing. The voice, the instrumentals, the message all the hairs on my arms were standing at attention and I said these guys are gonna be big. 2 weeks later this song comes on the radio and they've been huge ever since.

Brent Smith (the lead singer and songwriter) has stated in an interview: “The inspiration from the song really came from - I think a lot of people kinda take a literal sense because of the lyrics - but the song is basically about the day that you wake up and you look at yourself in the mirror and you finally decide that you want to try to become comfortable in your own skin, and realize that you’re gonna have to make yourself happy before you’re going to make anyone else happy. And basically, the 45 isn’t an actual literal term for a gun, I used it as a metaphor for the world, the .45 is actually the world and what it hands you every day of your life. When you get up, it’s a gift to be alive to begin with. A lot of different people, when I’ve talked about it, they said, “Do you really honestly mean that?” And I’m like, “Well, yeah.” Because I’ve been in that situation where I didn’t know if I wanted to continue going on and I didn’t know how to necessarily make myself comfortable with who I was, trying to find a way of learning more about myself. And you come from a dark place sometimes, and that’s really the reality of the song. It’s about overcoming and about moving forward. And it’s basically about understanding that it’s not always going to be good, but you really have no one to blame for yourself if you don’t move forward. That’s where the whole, “Nobody knows what I believe,” [comes from] because we’re all individuals. So that’s really where it comes from, it’s about moving on, really.” -Wikipedia
