Dude, this shits all over fucking Nickelback - very melancholy and catchy (as already said), and I love all the subtle synth stuff, great job! Great chorus melody/harmonies too, damn. The one thing I've never been too fond of (from a songwriting perspective) is the rhythmic cadence you have in the verses (line, pause, line, pause, etc.), it's a bit too, I dunno, classic rock or something to me, but that's purely preference, and the chorus rules (although I'd like a pad in there, or if there is one having it more prominent, just to mak it feel a bit more soaring/epic, but now I'm just nitpicking). Again, awesome job! And I see what spioraid is talking about with the snare, but I also agree that it TOTALLY doesn't matter in music like this; if anything, I prefer it, because it feels more like a "beat" and less like a "drummer"
