From the recordings Waiting For Eterntity and The Long Walk
Waiting For Eternity has written this song about killing the things that keep you down and leaving behind the things of the past.
The band hopes to encourage you that there is hope and that there is help for all who are in need. No matter what struggles you face everyday, whether it is depression, addiction or all of the endless other things that we fight against everyday, you do not have to face them alone.
In this video, the band has put specific focus on the struggles that our nation's veterans face. The Department of Veterans Affairs currently states that the Veteran Suicide Rate is over 15 per day.
For us as a band, we had to do our part. This song, The Long Walk, is meant to shed light on a topic many are unaware of.
The video actually features two veterans and is being used to get the message of support to anyone who needs help.
You can do your part by sharing the song and video with as many people as possible.

Lyrics
I'm going to lay this down and go take the long walk.
I'm going to leave it here and go have the hard talk.
Walkin' around in a dead man's clothes, there's a fine line.
Time to shed these worn out rags, leave them all behind.
I'm not sure where we are going but,
I will be first in line to tell you what I've left behind.
You know that I can't erase what's wrong.
And I can't carry it inside so I kill it, break it, the pain is gone.
There was this fire deep inside and it burned hot.
I tried to keep it down, I failed and I could not.
Losing all that I am not is the hard part.
Coming to the end of me, that's where I start.
I'm not sure where we are going but,
I will be first in line to tell you what I've left behind.
You know that I can't erase what's wrong.
And I can't carry it inside so I kill it, break it, the rage is gone.
I can't carry it inside so I kill it, break it, the hate is gone.
I can't carry it inside so I kill it, break it, I'm left with you.
