Marianas Trench - Beside You Lyrics






When your tears are spent on your last pretense
And your tired eyes refuse to close and sleep in your defense
When it's in your spine like you've walked for miles
And the only thing you want is just to be still for a while

And if your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
I'll be right beside you

When you're overwhelmed and you've lost your breath
And the space between the things you know is blurry nonetheless
When you try to speak but you make no sound
And the words you want are out of reach but they've never been so loud

And if your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
I'll be right beside you

I will stay
Here beside you
Nobody will break you
Yeah

Trust in me, trust in me
Don't pull away
'Cause I'm just trying to keep this together
'Cause I could do worse and you could do better
Because I could do worse and you could do better

Tears are spent on your last pretense
And your tired eyes refuse to close and sleep in your defense

And if your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
Nobody will break you

And if your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
Nobody will break you

  3. S.... ....

    This video is entertaining to me, a percussionist, because like. That's not anywhere near what a timpani sounds like. But also the big-ass bass drum with a towel on the head that actually made that noise doesn't look anywhere near as classy and orchestral as a timpani, so they just sorta said fuck it.

  4. y.... r....

    Ok, first of all, there are tears running down my face, don't worry! Tears of happiness! This song! Omg! I can relate to it in many ways. I have been going through tough times and I came across Marianas Trench. Ever since I have been listening to your music and became a huge fan of you guys I am finally happy again! After a whole year of being nothing but depressed, I came across you guys and I am finally happy again! I was actually able to fall asleep last night! It's a miracle! I Love the lyrics and just the way it sounds! When you sing "I'll be right beside you" this song is just sooo beautiful! The most beautiful song and most beautiful voice I've ever heard! Because it is like you guys are right beside me, helping me get through these hard times! I'm saving up my money to come to a Marianas Trench concert and get VIP so I can meet you guys! I Love you guys sooo much! You have no idea how grateful I am that I came across you guys and that I'm finally happy again! And it's all because of you!

    Heard this song in the shower the day my mom told me she was diagnosed with lung cancer. I also sang this as she died. Powerful, meaningful song for me. I will be at their concert in Kitchener March 2019, so looking forward to it!

  43. F.... ....

  44. F.... G....

    FIFA World Cup brought me here once again 😌

  45. J.... S....

    Who is the girl in this video??? She’s gorgeous

  46. T.... T....

    This was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks so much! Time to make some music myself. 💘💛💜

  47. N.... A....

    Didn't watch the video

  48. V.... ....

    Imagine someone writting a song like this for you

  49. C.... L....

    So I have a theory about the video. I haven't looked anything up so I don't know if there is an official meaning to it or whatever but I've watched it a lot and this is the impression I got. The video is about suicide. The girl on the dock is daydreaming about someone she loved (aka Josh) and looking through their messages and imagines his arms around her only to remember that he's dead. The room with the orchestra is supposed to represent some sort of limbo or afterlife and the giant screen is a window into, for lack of being able to come up with a better descriptor for it, the land of the living. Josh is watching her and yearning to be near her but can only really do so as a ghost (hence the image of him standing behind her watching her as she cries next to the tree.) The screen shows images of the girl's memories of them when he was still alive, like them walking and kissing. The reason I think it's about suicide is because at the end she finally joins him in the orchestra room and because she is no longer alive the screen has nothing to broadcast, which is why the movie stops. The grief was so strong that she killed herself because she wanted to be with the person she loved again. Which explains her joy when she sees him because she realizes that it actually worked.


    Again this is a theory and I'm about to go watch the BTS video and see if they say anything but this is definitely the vibe I got from the video

  50. P.... W....

    Thats Abigail breslin right?

    P.... W....

    Sorry if im wrong

  51. A.... H....

    I honestly can't even put into words how much I love Josh Ramsay. He song writing ability, his vocals, everything is perfection. You can hear and feel the emotion in every song. Listening to this right now is bringing me to tears. After everything he's been through, I am so proud of how far he and the band have come. They are so underrated for how incredibly talented they are, I really hope they get the recognition they deserve one day. I would give up my life if it meant Josh would be eternally happy. Josh if you ever read this...Ah who am I kidding he'll never see it. Love you though <3

  52. J.... O....

    Great song 👍

  53. L.... C....

    Marianas Trench is pretty underrated. If it wasn't for Canadian radio stations, they would not have ad big of a fan base, as well as many other Canadian pop rock bands.

  54. C.... ....

    ❤❤❤ 2018

  55. E.... K....

    2018...🖤🖤🖤 MT Forever

  56. G.... K....

    Still listening to this in 2018. It will forever remind me of my first love. Good times, good times.

  57. S.... ....

    creepy AF. l actually liked you on spotify for a song or two but cant wait to see how you get creepier in the future...

  58. B.... ....

    This song always makes me happy when i'm stressed

  59. J.... M....

    So I know this might be a love song from reading the comments. For me it is for someone or something as a protection from the battles we face

  60. C.... ....

    wat is the girl’s name

  61. R.... R....

    Almost 10 years later and I still love this song as much as I did when it was first released.

  71. A.... ....

    2018 and still beside you, Marianas Trench.

  72. B.... L....

    Still listening in 2018!

  73. g.... ....

    My theory about the song: The girl was in a relationship with the guy, and they loved each other a lot. The man was walking from his house to her house, because it was their anniversary and he bought her flowers and chocolate. When he was walking the crosswalk, a driver was responding to a text message, and he hit the guy walking. He was rushed to the emergency room, where the doctor called the guy's girlfriend. The girlfriend rushed to the room where he was staying. Her boyfriend was in critical condition and she knew that he wasn't going to make it. She held his hand as the heart rate monitor went flat. For weeks and weeks, she cut herself, drank, and was depressed. The boyfriend was watching her from Heaven and even though she couldn't hear him, he told her that he would always be beside her. Due to all the stress of work, school and his death, she had a heart attack in the middle of the night. Since she lived alone, nobody was there to call an ambulance. She died alone. But then she went to Heaven and found out that her boyfriend was watching her from Heaven and she was reunited with him for Eternity.

  74. n.... r....

    I love Marianas Trench! Its 12:00 PM right now and I'm listening to this just to make me fall asleep but it doesn't work because my legs hurt SO much.🤕

  75. E.... C....

    are you supposed to understand this music video??

  76. L.... Y....

    So sick of the irritating *camp goodtime* commercial popping up everywhere, especially that stupid fool at the end, her lines are idiotic"we support them in a medical standpoint, just as a kid standpoint, just be a kid"(the fool was obviously confused and grasping for lines that it had forgotten).

  77. S.... ....

    Just rediscovered this song after way too long! Apparently this was my first Marianas Trench song and I didn't even know it lol!!

  78. B.... R....

    My wife walked down the aisle to this song and every time I hear it it brings tears of joy to my eyes. One of my favourite songs of all time.
