The reason why this song, video, and lyrics resonate with me so much is because of the lyrics. It's about being so passionate, so angry, so full of emotion yet paralyzed by sadness and confusion at the same time. It's about wanting to commit suicide yet struggling on. I love it.

Fear Factory: "Therapy For Pain" (my favorite music)
One of my favorite songs. Check the lyrics and you'll know why.
To be more specific: My brother, Alan, died in 2002 and I opened and stared into his eyes as I heard his heart rate monitor steadily go from slow to nothing. I looked into his eyes and said "please help me when you get to the other side. I'm going to need your help. I can't do this from here from all by myself. I'll need your help. Help me when you go there, okay?
I don't want you to feel bad about leaving. Don't feel bad that you have to go. Your body won't let you stay. I know you want to stay but you can't. Your body won't let you. So don't feel bad about going, okay? We'll be alright, okay? I love you, I love you."
And that was it.
