'Hold On', by Good Charlotte.

Before reading something from this article, I would want you to listen, or read in addition, this video.



Good Charlotte, music band from Maryland, USA. This incredible video, created, run, and managed personally by the guys from Good Charlotte, sees the light in 2002, as the last single of the album The Young and The Hopeless.

From the beginning of the band, they tried to keep the bond between them and their fans, so close that even their followers wrote them letters about problems or just expressing admiration, but some of them also keep the message of death. Few of the letters told the group about suicide plans for themselves, for the senders of the letters, because of losing a love or other kind of experiences. Most of them were from very young people.

As so it went on, Good Charlotte decided to create something that unable their fans to commit such a stupid and mad act. And this is the way Hold On was created.

The band urged these people 'to hold on, to continue when their world feels like it's not going to get any better, because there's so much to live for.'

When they decided to start the Hold On project, they didn't know the effects of their video and its lyrics, but a lot of people stop suffering, also the ones that appear on the interviews from the clip. Those parents, sons, daughters, friends, had lost a real family member, they weren't actors, and Good Charlotte wanted it to be so. 'They felt much better when they expressed all their feeling in front of a filming camera. After some days, several called the studio to thank the band about the opportunity they offered them.'

Good Charlotte has been one of the most powerful and enabled group to lift up thousands of guys and girls that has a very black version of their vision in life. They will be one of the very few bands that 'had the guts to write a song about a real problem that covers all the world, and no one seems to care about the pain of the not death victims and families.'


Here you have the lyric:


This world, this world is cold

But you don't, you don't have to go



You're feeling sad, you're feeling lonely

And no one seems to care

You're mother's gone and your father hits you
This pain you cannot bear


But we all bleed the same way as you do

And we all have the same things to go through


Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know


Days, you say they're way too long

And your nights, you can't sleep at all



Hold on

And you're not sure what you're waiting for

But you don't want to know more

And you're not sure what you're looking for
But you don't want to know more



But we all bleed the same way as you do

And we all have the same things to go through


Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know


Don't stop looking, you're one step closer

Don't stop searching, it's not over

Hold on


What are you looking for?

What are you waiting for?

Do you know, what you're doing to me?

Go ahead, what are you waiting for?


Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know


Don't stop looking, you're one step closer

Don't stop searching, it's not over


Hold on, if you feel like letting go

Hold on, it gets better than you know

Hold on
