Rise Above This

I have a song on my workout playlist, "Rise Above This" by Seether. If you haven't heard it, you must do it now!! It's got a great beat, the lyrics are powerful, and the melody is addictive. It's about the lead singer's brother who committed suicide, and for anyone who is struggling in life it's an amazingly powerful song. Here are the lyrics, and after them I'll post a link to the song.

Take the light, undarken everything around me
Call the clouds and listen closely I'm lost without you
Call your name every day when I feel so helpless
I've fallen down but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Hate the mind, regrets are better left unspoken
For all we know, this void will grow
And everything's in vain, distressing you though it leaves me open
Feels so right, but I'll end this all before it gets me
Call your name every day when I feel so helpless
I've fallen down but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Call your name every day when I seem so helpless
I've fallen down, and I'll rise above this, rise above this doubt
I'll mend myself before it gets me
(I'll mend myself before it gets me)
I'll mend myself before it gets me
(I'll mend myself before it gets me)
Call your name every day when I feel so helpless
I've fallen down but I'll rise above this, rise above this
Forty eight ways to say that I'm feelin' helpless
I'm Falling down, falling down, but I'll rise above this,
rise above this, Rise above this, rise above this doubt
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do...it has helped me through some really tough times I've been experiencing lately. Turn it on and turn it up, because it's one of those songs you want to fill the room with.
