I came here from Divergent so like

It's 2019 and I rediscovered this song from my preteen years 😭❤ it's still the best

I love the paper cut-out puppets. Its so cool. reminds me of the witches from Madoka

Never trust the Raven's children.

Blessed be the waters stained by our enemies crimson mortality

Almost 10 years man.. fuck I loved momento mori’s album so fucking much.

I miss when Lacey was still in the band . I was gonna go see them for the first time but she had left :( I miss their old music !

2019 anyone?

divergent

When she wants...

Best song. I miss Flyleaf.

2019 anyone..?

I remember when I bought their first self titled album. I was in love instantly!

What is divergent?

Tiverton69 its a movie and a book kinda like the hunger games

I love this song.

i still listen to

i still here to chasm and its 2019!!!!

This is so sad that Lacey is warning her fans and still most refuse to believe. I pray that those who dont will accept Jesus before its too late.. this song is a strong and powerful reminder of what happens to those who dont give their life to Christ.

2018 anyone?

I understand the messenge of the music but someone can explain the video and why she's with the death?

Anyone listening in 2018?!!!!

Meeeeee!!!!!

Even though it's not 2018 anymore, lol

It's 2018 for me and still love it!

who's the girl?

Woah, I saw the movie but never realized it was inspired by this. What a coincidence since I just saw Divergent 2 days ago.

2018 and still loving Flyleaf~ ♡

I like divergent but had no idea this song inspired the series. If that's true, in a way the Bible inspired divergent xD actually pretty awesome if so. (Lacey wrote this song based on a parable about a man dying and going to hell)

Etc.,.ok.,.women's rights marching upon Washington DC / United nations. shortening the days of the end times … perhaps prevent world war 3. and / or warrioresses-pacts survive the final apocalypse arriving.

Melho banda amazing

Nope. That wasn't depressing at all.

So I haven't listened to this song like like..5 or 6 years, and most of the time with old songs I usually forget the lyrics.
I play this and I sing s p o t o n to it.

Flyleaf was and still is my first ever favorite female singer band. Lacey has such an amazing voice <3

This is deffo my fav Flyleaf song

Break up already wake up now
Walk away take it all back now
Don't be quick to lick the scab off
You're spitting in his face with the rest of them
Break up already wake up now
Walk away take it all back now
Don't be quick to lick the scab off
You're spitting in his face with the rest of them
Please give me something I'm so thirsty,
I'm so thirsty
Oh please, let me warn them,
Don't you come here, don't bring anyone here
The chasm isn't fixed yet.
Take this water
Drinking ever deeper, living water
Please give me something I'm so thirsty
I'm so thirsty
Oh, please, let me warn them.
Don't you come here, don't bring anyone here
Please
Please give me something I'm so thirsty
I'm so thirsty
Oh, please, let me warn them.
Don't you come here, don't bring anyone here

MILLIONS, firsts ones to awnser get free tshirts

*TAKE* *THIS* *WATER*

This song does things to my brain. I love it.

I like the ideas they are sweet Looking!

Chick looks like Lust from Fullmetal Alchemist

The art style reminds me of the portrait style in LoZ Link Between Worlds

Winry Rockbell same lol Zelda forever

Makes me think of the chasm in Divergent.

this is about the story of lazarus in the book of Luke :)

I thought I hadn't listened to flyleaf at all and wouldn't know any of their songs, but I know every one lol.

The heaviest song they ever made. I love it

I thought this song was about Lazarus in hell

A lot of people are complaining about Divergent fans in the comments and honestly???? just enjoy the music????? Flyleaf was here before Divergent but arguing about is childish?????
Like, Veronica Roth may have mentioned that this song inspired Divergent, and as an author I can say that this skng and many others help my writer brain a lot, but arguing about it isn't gonna change the song or the book.

If you actually think about the lyrics from bible stories or real life situations we all go through, these lyrics come to life right in front of you. These were all really thought of very well

The 2 types of comments on every fucking Flyleaf video:
1.) "I'm an atheist *blahblahblah*"
2.) "I miss Lacey *blahblahblah*"

Bonus Comment: "I've been listening before they became popular/ before they got exposure"

because fucking hipsters, am I right?

I'm not a Christian either I love her music even if she left flyleaf I still love her music

My favorite song from Flyleaf :)

Veronica what do you listen to???

Ohhh Plleeeeeaaaase, let me warn THEEEEEeeeeeeem!

I have watched this video so many times and it never ceases to amaze me. I am really not sure where I am on the faith spectrum at the minute but I can say that this is one of the most spiritual music videos I've ever seen. The imagery here is so evocative and it makes me think about eternity as a reality, not something that is coming at some point. Yet, I also appreciate how it teaches without preaching- that's an art in itself. I associate a lot of other imagery with this particular video as well; it reminds me of The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis in a lot of ways and the Middle Ages vibe is quite powerful, too. It's not often you get a music video that is so aesthetically deep and I really appreciate whoever crafted the vision for it.

maaaan!! Its 2017 and I still listening to Flyleaf oldest songs lmao!! THIS SONG IS AWESOME!!

Julio Justino 2018 here

2019 here

it's 2019 now and i'm still listening

ive seen Divergent I don't know how many times and not once did I hear one of their songs. where the fuck are you getting any correlation between Flyleaf and Divergent? and I know ive asked this before and ive even looked up the sound track ive dug around and ive found nothing that links the two....

why all flyleaf music videos is so strange?

She seems hardcore but really nice :)

Don't get mad but they remind me of a female version. Of Breaking Bejamain.

What does being atheist have anything to do with music? Good music touches your soul oh wait you don't have one your atheist right? 💯real

atheist for 25 years i found the meaning of space and time atheist no longer! THIS MUSIC IS KING I KNOW GOD IS NOT REAL IN THE WAY WE THINK BUT THERE IS MORE TO IT THEN "GOD" TURE POWERS WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND I CAN ASTRAL PROJECT

wtf. take that profile picture down. thats not flyleaf. thats another band who copyed there name

did that bitch just say my name......................???

Game of Thrones vibe.

divergent!!

0:40 is peanut butter gamer!

Is this song about Lazarus & the Rich Man?

I thought about that too. The sermon at my church today was about that Lazarus and the Rich man and it reminded me of this song.

Actually it is. Lacey talked about that in RTR Edmonton some years ago.

Indeed it is. Good ear.

this song is for you hear every single minute you doing

I'm afraid that if I listen to anymore of these songs, I'm going end up getting all of them.

dnt b quick 2 lik the scab off

That video was 10x creepier than expected, and I loved it

i love all of lacey's music. im an atheist and a huge fan. you dont have to be a christian to appreciate a talented singer.

I need more friends like you.

I'm a christian and I totally agree with you! So powerful and so talented!

Julia Diez hell yes queen!

I agree im satan, shes amazing

i would rather watch an ad here than on the other jacked search result

So sad

😢

my sister and i are huge fans of flyleaf. i wish the band was still together and they play in my hometown Corpus Christi

How did you get to see her

@Adalia Perez She's on tour, playing her new album

I really want to meet her

@Adalia Perez Me too, but unfortunately she had to leave after the concert because of her son. Still happy I got to see her live nonetheless :)

I have no money though

R.I.P. Flyleaf

Airplanes are good for flying over chasms!  :P

I just realized what this song was about lol

what's it about?

+icon for hire i love you guys

Its about people in hell screaming for water, because their bodies are burning in the lake of fire forever.
Also a reference to a passage in the bible, Luke 16:19-31 about Lazarus who was poor and had nothing but died and went to heaven and was made rich and lavished by the Lord's side, and was welcomed by Abraham. All the while, a rich man (whose house gates Lazuras slept by to beg for food because he had no home or welth), dies and looks up through the chasm between Hades (Hell) and Paradise where he begs for Lazarus to cool his tongue with a droplett of water.

Lazarus and the rich man. Luke 16: 19-31

they no longer sing yet they have subs? Its like buying tickets to a concert that's already passed

They do still sing, but they have a different lead singer and the music doesn't sound the same.

Lacy came out with a solo album about three months ago. Life screams. It's awesome.

yup but kinda defeats the purpose when lacey was the band...beyond rare for a new singer to live up to the old one!

I love this kind of music.

BREAK UP ALREADY WAKE UP NOW!

Guys , add me to the community We are fans of LACEY STURM in Google + !!! I have only 22 participant : ( And the fans really are much more !!! ) ) ) Thank you for your understanding !!!

The part where he tells his dog to stay when he knows he's probably going to die is really sad, the dog doesn't know he won't come back....

what part

+Olivia Lockett he holds his hand up for the dog to sit

+Kat Hall what specific like part tho

+Olivia Lockett at 1:20

"While the enemy was losing the battle today, they cried out to us, “Memento Mori! We are human too! We are in pain and we are dying!” I answered them; hoping they would listen, “Break off your pact with the Dread Army! That is what is killing you!
Walk away and take your life back! I know its all you’ve ever known, and walking away will leave a wound; but it will heal! When it does, do not enter into your pact with  those vultures again! You don’t have to be slaves to Death! We’ve come to bring the truth of freedom! You were meant to be free!” But they wouldn’t listen and kept crying out, “Please give me something! I’m so thirsty.” I  tried again with more urgency. “If you die here this way, you will have wasted your life on death and you will have never lived! Once you die here,  the chasm will be fixed and you can never undo it. Turn from Death and drink this life-giving water we are offering you!” The battle continued to rage, some turning and joining the Passerby Army, others dying."
Please read the booklet that comes with the cd. The text above is the entry that goes with 'Chasm'. All these entries give the entire album at least two extra layers of depth. Amazing.

+Chaniel93 Will do, thanks. :D

This album is seriously one of my favorites. I just love how they subtly added eastereggs about its story throughout the album. Its amazing!

Chaniel93 actually this song is about the rich man who died and went to hell. The poor man dies and goes to heaven. The rich man looks up at Lazurus and asks for water to drink because of how hot flames are. He denies him drink so, he begs him to tell his friends about the horrible place he has been condemned too.

My Animation I agree

For those of you who really don't know the meaning of this song and thinking its about Jesus its not...its actually a parable Luke 16:19-28 about the rich man in hell/Lazarus

which means it's about Jesus and God still. ..

When the chasm is fixed into place those in hell with thirst. The living water of life will be on the other side. You have been warned!

You have been warned!

This is great!

Cool 👌

"God has landed on this enemy-occupied
world in human form."  - C.S. Lewis -  I think the video is describing this.  You see the man in the video at first he is in paradise, and then he suddenly is in the army and in a war.  That's just like Jesus, he left paradise to come to this earth and give his life for us.  The reason Lacey's on the 'evil' side, is because all of us were.  He came to save us, and we killed him. We were all dead in sin before God rescued us.  That's the image I get from it.

+Joe A. Verage I'm debating what of what you said I completely agree with and don't but I love your way of thinking, and agree with the majority of the statement.

@Brocialist Party of America you are fucking crazy man... And we don't have to be believers to think that you said a lot of shit

Riff 0:56

i read this as it happened

She needs some milk

+HeythereimKayla Hahah thats good

you're a genius

I don't know what this is representing about God. But I do miss Lacey she's my favorite singer

I showed this to my mom (she knows more then the bible then I do) and she said its about the story of job which I found cool

+icon for hire i love you guys

Or the story of Job! I suppose that refference would work as well! Job is my favorite story.

+C Red same. I love this song

It's not about Job. It is about Lazarus and the rich man. Here are the verses. Luke 16: 19-31

rename your band

wow y'all crazy it's not disturbing ur just crazy

I FOUND IT!!!! YAAAS!
I've heard this 2 years ago.
I've been searching forever!

where did you hear it at?

Yea! me too

Who's the woman?
