From Ashes To New-Hate Me Too :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









I wish I hated you
And after all this shit you should hate me too

I wish that I could see
You're not the one for me
I lost the old you, lost the old me
Found the misery
I wish that you believed
We'll never change a thing
'Cause we been reckless and this mess is
Fucking killing me

Every day sucks when we try to make up
I wanna take drugs so I never wake up
I wanna get away, I'll never get away
I'll tell ya to your face, I'll tell ya straight up that

I wish I hated you
And after all this shit you should hate me too
We scream 'til we choke, our hearts in our throats
We just can't let it go, woah
I wish I hated you
And you should hate me too
You should hate me too

I wish I had a clue
'Cause you're like a bad tattoo
Yeah I was stupid, can't remove it
Now I'm stuck with you
I wish we would've known
'Cause we're going up in smoke
Just strike the match and turn our backs
Burn down this broken home

Every day sucks when we try to make up
I wanna take drugs so I never wake up
I wanna get away, I'll never get away
I'll tell ya to your face, I'll tell ya straight up that

I wish I hated you
And after all this shit you should hate me too
We scream 'til we choke, our hearts in our throats
We just can't let it go, woah
I wish I hated you
And you should hate me too
You should hate me too

I wanna get high, yeah, I wanna stay numb
The love never works like the cocaine does
I wanna get away, I'll never get away
I'll tell ya to your face, I'll tell ya straight up

I wish I hated you
And after all this shit you should hate me too

I wish I hated you
And after all this shit you should hate me too
We scream 'til we choke, our hearts in our throats
We just can't let it go, woah
I wish I hated you
And you should hate me too
You should hate me too
You should hate me too

And you should hate me too

Underoath-Let Go :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









Teach me to let go

I'm overrated and insecure
I keep on running but there's never a door

Nothing's changed, I feel the same
I'm the one to blame
So hear me out
I can dance up against the flame
I've given up on what they say is safe
I've always felt a little better this way

What's the use when nothing's new?
Is there any truth?
Oh God I'm begging you
I could use a little peace these days
Any help to sleep it all away

I'm alive but blue with distance
I'm a little too far to save
I'd ask for help but I don't deserve it
Is your world better off this way?
I can carry all the blame
I can carry all the blame

I wish I could just wake me up
Then I could just save myself from you
I know it doesn't make sense to you
It's just the empty thing I have to do
Overrated, overrated (No hope)
Tie me up, so tie me up (With no rope)
So say the words that you have to say
Even though I'm not listening

I'm alive but blue with distance
I'm a little too far to save
I'd ask for help but I don't deserve it
Is your world better off this way?
I can carry all the blame
I can carry all the blame

You don't have to remind me
I know I'm a failure now
I wish you'd ignore me
'Cause I'll only bring you down
I'm the one that falls apart
I'm the one that breaks your heart
I'm living in the dark

You don't have to remind me (I fall apart)
I know I'm a failure now (I break your heart)
I wish you'd ignore me (I fall apart)
'Cause I'll only bring you down
(I break your heart, I fall apart)
'Cause I'll only bring you down
(I break your heart, I fall apart)

Pull myself out the lifeboat
Tie myself up with no rope
Go to heaven with no hope
Won't you teach me to let go?

Teach me to let go
Teach me to let go
Teach me to let go
Teach me to let go
Teach me to let go
Teach me to let go

I'm alive but blue with distance
I'm a little too far to save
I'd ask for help but I don't deserve it
Is your world better off this way?
I can carry all the blame
I can carry all the blame

Atreyu-Watch Me Burn :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









Come and watch me burn, burn, burn, oh
Watch me burn, burn, burn, oh
Watch me burn

Paint it all black
Take my life back
Buried it six feet in the past

Aim for my chest
Take deep breaths
Thought you had me beat but I still cheat death

Mix my blood with the ashes
Spark into a flame till it crashes down
You carve my name in the casket
Get the matches

If you set it all on fire
I'll be fighting till my last breath
Even when flames grow higher
I'll be fighting till I'm dead

So gimme what you got
I will never stop
Cover me in gasoline
Burn it down
I'll be fighting till my last breath
Come and watch me burn

Liar, liar, bite your tongue
Trying to tear me down with your smoke filled lungs
Watch them falling one by one
Your time has come

If you set it all on fire
I'll be fighting till my last breath
Even when flames grow higher
I'll be fighting till I'm dead

So gimme what you got
I will never stop
Cover me in gasoline
Burn it down
I'll be fighting till my last breath
Come and watch me burn

Watch me burn

If you set it all on fire
I'll be fighting till my last breath
Even when flames grow higher
I'll be fighting till I'm dead

So gimme what you got
I will never stop
Cover me in gasoline
Burn it down
I'll be fighting till my last breath

Come and watch me burn, burn, burn, oh
Watch me burn, burn, burn, oh
Come and watch me burn

There's a band I found scrolling on insta called "Riot In The Attic"
And I kinda got obsessed with one song by them called "Sin&Wine"
They also made a music video with it and ITS AWESOMEEEE
I'm not too sure on the story of the video, but basically the devil left his "cozy hell" and started working, but eventually got stressed and stuf. RLLY AWESOME :333

Currents-Remember Me :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









I can sense it, I've convinced myself that the world I love is gone
The blood is on the walls, the damage has been done
We carry the weight of selfless scars we silently crave
Upon a pedestal, we place our pain

One quandary for the counsel, too humble to brag
Cut the venom out, but the snake still buries its fangs
So when you take a look deep inside yourself, it swells and it stings
Like a chemical reaction burning your brain
In lies the weight of our regrets
Sharpen the knives that cut through our deepest strings of hate
Show me the love you've always wanted

All the love is gone, driven apart by what we all have seen
We're falling over ourselves
How do we mourn what's lost, what never will be?
Remember me, remember me as you loved me

Carry the weight of selfless scars we silently crave
Show me your hands and touch the stars with me
We're never just on one path, one road to travel, it seems
Our story's infinite, and we've just been pulling at the strings
And now there never will be

We have exercised the will of parasites
Witness the birth of innocence and our call to grow

All the love is gone, driven apart by what we all have seen
We're falling over ourselves
How do we mourn what's lost, what never will be?
Remember me, remember me as you loved me

Carry the weight of selfless scars we silently crave
Show me your hands and touch the stars with me
Falling walls like mountains form where I stand
You are my family, and I will not let hate be my last sin

Amity Affliction-I See Dead People :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:







I hear their voices in my head
I feel their sorrow in my chest
I've seen them pushed to the fucking edge
I see the ghosts of my friends
Yeah
I see the ghosts of my friends

If they can't make it out alive
Maybe I too am meant to die
I am waiting for Hell to take my soul
I am death, I am utter failure
And I can't make it out of here
Is this the end of everything?
I am, I am the noose, I am the knot
I am hate, I am your depression

I hear their voices in my head
I see the ghosts of my friends, oh

Yeah
I see the ghosts of my friends

They didn't make it out alive
And I'm just here waiting to die
I am the coward standing on the edge
Throw me out, I am utter failure
And I can't make it out of here
Is this the end of everything?
I am, I am the noose, I am the knot
I am hate, I am your depression

Dear God that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear God that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear God that don't exist
Fly me over oceans where my lover lives
Dear God that don't exist

Pat Benetar-We Live For Love :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










Your love's contagious, one kiss is dangerous
I have more to risk than you to lose
I feel passion growing, I know that love is only
Just one inch away, it's dragging us

We live for love
We live for love

When we get tired and watch the summer fade away
Will you think of romance? What will we do?
Is there a place where we can go
Where time stands still for those who know?
'Til eternity, we'll fulfil our desire

We live for love
We live for love

We live for love
We live for love

I never planned to win the race
But you convinced me face to face
There was never a chance of losing at all

We live for love
We live for love

We live for love
We live for love

We live for love
We live for love

We live for love
We live for love

Insane, what you wanna be?
I want her coming after me
One taste, what it gonna gain?
I can't stop
It all depends, yeah

See me in an alleyway
Just took time to situate
Ride on 'til another day
You'll find your only

My pain, can you take away?
If this is true give it to me
One taste, what it gonna gain?
Become mine I won't depend, yeah

See me in an alleyway
Just took time to situate
Ride on 'til another day

You'll find your only
You'll find your only

My pain is all direction
In time it's all infection
And I take way one exception
And I can't lie I love deception
Inside walls stuck inside me
Can't find all but one is hidden
All my pain I alter in me
Coming into darkness risen

See me in an alleyway
Just took time to situate
Ride on 'til another day
You'll find your only
See me in an alleyway
Just took time to situate
Ride on 'til another day

Ghost-Jesus He Knows Me :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










You see the face on the TV screen
coming at you every Sunday
see that face on the billboard
that man is me

On the cover of the magazine
there's no question why I'm smiling
you buy a piece of paradise
you buy a piece of me

I'll get you everything you wanted
I'll get you everything you need
don't need to believe in hereafter
just believe in me

Cos Jesus he knows me
and he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
oh yes he knows me
and he knows I'm right
and he's been telling me
everything is alright

I believe in the family
with my ever loving wife beside me
but she don't know about my girlfriend
or the man I met last night

Do you believe in God
cos that's what I'm selling
and if you wanna get to heaven
I'll see you right

You won't even have to leave your house
or get outta your chair
you don't even have to touch that dial
cos I'm everywhere

And Jesus he knows me
and he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
oh yes he knows me
and he knows I'm right
well he's been telling me
everything's gonna be alright

Won't find me practising what I'm preaching
won't find me making no sacrifice
but I can get you a pocketful of miracles
if you promise to be good, try to be nice
God will take good care of you
just do as I say, don't do as I do

I'm counting my blessings,
I've found true happiness
cos I'm getting richer, day by day
you can find me in the phone book,
just call my toll free number
you can do it anyway you want
just do it right away

There'll be no doubt in your mind
you'll believe everything I'm saying
if you wanna get closer to him
get on your knees and start paying

Cos Jesus he knows me
and he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
oh yes he knows me
and he knows I'm right
well he's been telling me
everything's gonna be alright, alright

Jesus he knows me
Jesus he knows me, you know...

Staind-Lowest In Me :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:









Try to let go but you won't let me
So I'm closed off hating all I see
Play the victim so carelessly
You're addicted to uncertainty

You bring out the lowest that I have in me
I feel the chaos and the gravity
And I can't escape the bitterness I can't change
You bring out the lowest that I have
Lowest that I have in me

Try to hold back, all the anger
But it's a trigger and I can't relax
Losing focus on the things you lack
So you push me the brink
And I don't know what is next

You bring out the lowest that I have in me
I feel the chaos and the gravity
And I can't escape the bitterness I can't change
You bring out the lowest that I have
Lowest that I have in me

Lowest of the low
I'm so fucking high

Sever all ties
I don't recognize what I've become
Thread is pulled
You've made an animal

You bring out the lowest that I have in me
I feel the chaos and the gravity
And I can't escape the bitterness I can't change
You bring out the lowest that I have
Lowest that I have in me

Joan Jett-l Hate Myself For Loving You :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:











Midnight, gettin' uptight, where are you?
You said you'd meet me, now it's quarter to two
I know I'm hangin' but I'm still wantin' you
Hey Jack, it's a fact they're talkin' in town
I turn my back and you're messin' around
I'm not really jealous, don't like lookin' like a clown
I think of you ev'ry night and day
You took my heart then you took my pride away

I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you
Ow! Uh

Daylight, spent the night without you
But I've been dreamin' 'bout the lovin' you do
I'm over being angry 'bout the hell you put me through
Hey, man, bet you can treat me right
You just don't know what you was missin' last night
I wanna see you begging, say forget it just for spite
I think of you ev'ry night and day
You took my heart and you took my pride away

I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you
Ow! Huh

I think of you ev'ry night and day
You took my heart and you took my pride away

I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you

I hate myself for loving you
Can't break free from the the things that you do
I wanna walk but I run back to you
That's why I hate myself for loving you

I hate myself for loving you
I hate myself for loving you
I hate myself for loving you
I hate myself

Devildriver-Through The Depths :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:






Attention
You're seeking
You've asked for
It's given

Windows, broken hearts
Watching all your restarts
I wanna be around when you go down

Through the depths to the ascension
Nothing you wouldn't do for my attention
Held to the fire it's not my crime
You've pinned it on me
For the last time

So discretion
Never meant that much to me
So discretion
Your memory I'll delete

The road to hell
Is paved with good intentions
Intentions

Through the depths to the ascension
Nothing you wouldn't do for my attention
Held to the fire it's not my crime
You've pinned it on me
For the last time
For the last

You are the storm before the rain
I am the mighty tide
Holding you under the waves
Nothing lasts forever

Intention
Apprehension
You've asked for
It's given

The road to hell
Is paved with good intentions
The road to hell

Through the depths to the ascension
Nothing you wouldn't do for my attention
Held to the fire it's not my crime
You've pinned it on me, for the last

Through the depths to the ascension
There's nothing you wouldn't do for my attention
Held to the fire it's not my crime
You've pinned it on me, for the last

The raven calls your name
This life is taken away
Beneath Orion's lights
The galaxies of Gods unite
The raven calls your name
This life is taken away
Beneath Orion's lights
The galaxies of Gods unite
I wanna be around when you go down

Pantera-Walk :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you
What do I do?

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been
Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

Respect, walk

Run your mouth when I'm not around
It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize

Can you hear the violins playing your song?
Those same friends tell me your every word

Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been
Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

Respect, walk

Are you talking to me?
No way punk
Walk on home boy

After The Burial-Death Keeps Us From Living :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










I've been through hell
The familiar feeling
The bitter taste
Polluted smell
Vile beatings
Vitals meeting in silence
Pull me down into the depths with the wicked
Coal and bone surrounding
I see the ice upon my breath

I won't fear for nothing as nothing awaits
Everyday is a beating that I can take
Internal bleeding
Surface remains clean
Suffering
Suffering
We abandon

Unearth the saints of
Struggle
Through the lows of the grieving
Tunnel
The light never finds it's direction
Death keeps us from living
Buried with these scars
It tears us apart
Inhale the burn of drifting embers
Of the distant pyres we remember
Death keeps us from living
Buried with these scars
It tears us apart
Nothing can save you from this pain
Nobody can save you from
Nobody can save you from this pain
We offer full embrace, suffering

Worn memorials
(Wretched)
Lost souls
(Hopeless)
Our time
Slips through the fault lines
Rise and Fall
In the woes of repetition

Oblivion

We carry ghosts
The godless head
Of pure despair
Gripped by the throat
Release me from
This curse I abandoned
I abandoned

We are the saints of
Struggle
Through the lows and the grieving
Tunnel
Where the light never finds it's direction
Death keeps us from living
Buried with these scars
It tears us apart

Inhale the burn of drifting embers
Of the distant pyres we remember
Death keeps us from living
Buried with these scars
It tears us apart

Nothing can save you from this pain
Nobody can save you from this pain
We offer full embrace, suffering

Death keeps us from living
(Suffering)
Death keeps us from living
(Suffering)
Death keeps us from living
Buried with these scars
It tears us apart

Make Them Suffer-Ghost Of Me :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










See you when you hit the bottom
You think a mother's ever been so proud?
A falling wretch, they clipped your wings
Heaven sent from the burning clouds

You know my face, remember me
When everybody has forgotten you
Once all your friends have left, you'll see
That it gets lonely at the bottom too
Sinking deeper yet, pull me from the depths
Please hold me close, never let go
We're going down, down, down
(Wе're going down, down, down)

(Do you really want to hurt me now?)

But if I'm gonna stay
Would you noticе?
We're falling out of place
We're so hopeless

You know my face, remember me
When everybody has forgotten you
Once all your friends have left, you'll see
That it gets lonely at the bottom too
Cry yourself
To death upon your bed of broken crowns
Once placed upon you
Find yourself
Or run and hide beneath your self-made hell

But if I'm gonna stay
Would you notice?
We're falling out of place
We're so hopeless
We gave in (we gave out)
We gave up (we gave up)
We gave up everything we had
It's all about to break

Do you really want to hurt me now?
Do you realize that you hate yourself?
Can't be you, it's everybody else
Can't be you, it's everybody else
So you really want to hurt me now?
We both know it's 'cause you hate yourself
Can't be you, it's everybody else (can't be you, it's everybody)
Abandon the ghost of me
The ghost of me
But I don't want to stay
Do you really want to hurt me now? (hurt me now?)
Do you really want to break me down? (break me down?)
Do you really want to hate yourself? (hate yourself?)
Do you really want to put me out? (put me out?)

See you when you hit the bottom
You know my face, remember me
The ghost of me becomes a part of you

I call you when I need you, my heart's on fire
You come to me, come to me wild and wild
When you come to me
Give me everything I need

Give me a lifetime of promises and a world of dreams
Speak a language of love like you know what it means
MMm, and it can't be wrong
Take my heart and make it strong, baby

You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I've ever met
I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby, I would rather be dead

In your heart, I see the star of every night and every day
In your eyes, I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I'm here in your arms
I could be in no better place

You're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I've ever met
Ooh, I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Don't tear us apart, no, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead

Each time you leave me, I start losing control
You're walking away with my heart and my soul
I can feel you even when I'm alone
Oh baby, don't let go

Ooh, you're the best, ooh
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I've ever met
Ooh, I'm stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Don't tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
You're the best

Ooh, you're simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I've ever met
I'm stuck on your heart, baby
I hang on every word you say
Don't tear us apart, no, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead

Oh, you're the best
You're better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I've ever met
Ooh, you're the best

Tina Turner-Proud Mary :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










You know, every now and then I think you might like to hear
Somethin' from us, nice and easy
There's just one thing you see
We never, ever do nothin' nice and easy
We always do it nice and rough
But we're gonna take the beginning of this song and do it easy
But then we're gonna do the finish rough
That's the way we do Proud Mary

And we're rolling (Ooh), rolling (Ooh), rolling on the river
Listen to the story

Left a good job in the city (Down in the city)
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleep
(And I was) Worryin' about the way that things might have been

(You know that) Big wheel keep on turnin
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
And we're rollin' (Rollin')
Rollin' yeah (Rollin'), rollin' on the river (Rollin' on the river)

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
(You know I) And I pumped a lot of 'pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of that city until I hitched
A ride on the river boat Queen

(You know the) Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
And we're rollin' (Rollin')
Rollin' yeah (Rollin'), rollin' on the river (Rollin' on the river)
Said we're rollin' (Rollin')
Rollin' yeah (Rollin'), rollin' on the river (Rollin' on the river)

I left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleep
Worryin' about the way things might have been

Big wheel keep on turnin' (Turnin')
Proud Mary keep on burnin' (Burnin')
Rollin'
Rollin', rollin' on the river
Said we're rollin'
Rollin', rollin' on the river

Oh I cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
And I pumped a lot of 'pane down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city until I hitched
A ride on the river boat Queen

Big wheel keep on turnin' (Turnin')
Proud Mary keep on burnin' (Burnin')
And we're rollin'
Said we're rollin', we're rollin' on the river
I tell ya we're rollin'
Rollin', we're rollin' on the river

Alright, yeah
Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

If you come down to the river
I betcha you're gonna find some people who live
And you don't have to worry
If you got no money
People on the river are happy to give

Big wheel keep on turnin' (Turnin')
Proud Mary keep on burnin' (Burnin')
And we're rollin'
And we're rollin'
And we're rollin' on a river
Tell me one more time
Rollin' (Yeah)
Rollin' (Alright)
Rollin' on the river (Ooh yeah)

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river (Yeah, alright now)
We're rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
Said we're rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river
I tell you we're rollin', we're rollin', we're rollin' on the river
Yeah, alright, uh-huh

Amity Affliction-It's Hell Down Here 💯











Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here

I can feel you writhe
I feel the tears, well in your eyes
Streaming down your face
You haven't seen the sun in days

Your breaking heart, your daily tears
I'm watching you in slow motion
A broken dream, a deathly calm
There's nothing on the horizon

I can feel your fears
And I can taste your tears
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)
I can see your sorrow
I hope there's no tomorrow
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)

Like a snake, I tire
The cold dark clouds, they steal my light (my light)
You're so distant now
A world away, I'm winding down

Your breaking heart, your daily tears
I'm watching you in slow motion
A broken dream, a deathly calm
There's nothing on the horizon

I can feel your fears
And I can taste your tears
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)
I can see your sorrow
I hope there's no tomorrow
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)

No more sunlight
No more dead ends
No more heartbreak
No more dead friends, oh

Oh, no more sunlight

No more dead ends
No more heartbreak
No more dead friends

I can feel your fears
And I can taste your tears
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here (hell down here)
I can see your sorrow
I hope there's no tomorrow
Is it heaven up there?
Because it's hell down here

Epica-Memory :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:

Just remembering when times were better. ;-;











Midnight
Not a sound from the pavement
Has the moon lost her memory?
She is smiling alone
In the lamplight
The withered leaves collect at my feet
And the wind begins to moan

Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then
I remember
The time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again

Every street lamp
Seems to beat a fatalistic warning
Someone mutters at the street lamp gutters
And soon it will be morning

Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I mustn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin

Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
A street lamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning

Touch me
It's so easy to leave me
All alone with my memory
Of my days in the sun
If you touch me
You'll understand what happiness is
Look a new day has begun​

Citizen Soldier-Through Hell :heart::hug::heart:










"Through Hell"

They say the devil's just an angel
That never learned from all his pain
They say the strong are never strangers
To the darkest of their days

I've learned there's beauty in the danger
There's meaning in the misery
Someday you'll look back at what it made you
And you'll never be the same

I had to go through hell
Through hell
To be the person I am today
Had to find myself
Myself
Climbing a mountain of my mistakes
Cause I was worth the war that's underneath my skin
And if I had to I would do it all again
Through hell
Through hell
You want a story to tell
You gotta go through hell

They say you're never gonna make it
Keep you digging just to find fool's gold
I know legends never had to fake it
Born with souls that can't be sold

They're gonna talk you down
Like you're a stupid kid
You gonna wave a white flag
Or are you gonna get pissed
What you call taking punches
I call learning how to live
So keep your prison cell

I'd rather go through hell
Through hell
To be the person I am today
I had to find myself
Myself
Climbing a mountain of my mistakes
Cause I was worth the war that's underneath my skin
And if I had to I would do it all again
Through hell
Through hell
You want a story to tell
You gotta go through hell

You want a story
Want a story you can tell
You gotta go
You gotta go through hell

You want a story
Want a story you can tell

You gotta go cause
If you let go
You'll never know

I had to go through hell
Through hell
Cause sometimes that's the only way

I had to go through hell
Through hell
To be the person I am today
Had to find myself
Myself
Climbing a mountain of my mistakes
Cause I was worth the war that's underneath my skin
And if I had to I would do it all again
Through hell
Through hell
You want a story to tell
You gotta go through hell​

Super underrated band no one I know listens to. They're my absolute favorite and they just released a new album.

LYRICS:

There's not enough ash
For the people I've been that came and past
And their anxious thoughts
Never fit quite on the plot in the walls

How they wished that they were saved
How they wished that they were sober
How they wished that they had anything to say before it's over
And the ever-present voice
In their ears and over shoulders
Left them wondering if they'll be the right one

One to be whole
The search for character is everlasting
And I do not know
Who I will be when this is over

In the image of our fathers
Were Amaranthus sons and tulip daughters
Bound and left to dry
Pressed firmly to the page
But no a copy of a copy's not the same thing
Same thing you are

I'm no indebtor

How I wish that I was saved
How I wish that I was sober
How I wish that I had anything to say before its over
And your ever-present voice
In my ear and over shoulder
Left me wondering if I'll be the right one

Bastard son
Oh black sheep in wool of white
What have you done
Pulling all your teeth
Casting every stone
Putting cracks in the facade of our paper home

Well, I've got petal skin
In the image of my father
Ever torn and taped
Too many times to bother
Bound and left to dry
Pressed firm into the page
But a copy of a copy's not the same

I'm no indebtor
I will not be you

Make your sprint from the bathroom
Wrestle knives if you need
Brother quick, pull the car up
And let us hold you

Every time that you tried it
Inner child, sold for cheap
If you want, you can keep him

In the image of our fathers
We're all unholy sons and crooked daughters
Hiding knives behind your back
Locking guns inside their safe
Father, father, look at what a mess you've made

Embrace the covenant
Reject the womb
With blood, thick as water
Be who you want to

Asking Alexandria-Dark Void :heart::heart::heart::heart::heart::heart:










One more chance to fall asleep inside
This nightmare that's taking every part of me
One more chance to fall asleep inside
This nightmare that's taking every part of me

If you scratch under the surface, try to find a purpose
I wonder what the dead would find
Trapped inside the prison of my mind, and I'm
Sick of messing up, up, but forget it now
Every time I try to stop, stop I fall apart
Lost deep down, I'm searching for a glimpse of hope
I'm sick of messing up, up but forget it now

Believe in me, and set me free
I'll drag these memories through the dark void
Just let me be, my savior, please
Help me crawl out the darkness

If you're digging through the dirt to see what you can find inside
Trapped inside the prison of my mind, and I
Try to live in the moment, lost my mind, now I'm broken
Can't escape the darkness that's been dragging me down
Lost deep down, I'm searching for a glimpse of hope

Believe in me, and set me free
I'll drag these memories through the dark void
Just let me be, my savior, please
Give me hope for the hopeless through the dark void
Void, void, void, void, void, void

One more chance to fall asleep inside
This nightmare that's taking every part of me
One more chance to fall asleep inside
This nightmare that's taking every part of me
One more chance, one more chance

One more chance to fall asleep inside
This nightmare that's taking every part of me

One more chance to fall asleep inside
This nightmare that's taking every part of me
One more chance to fall asleep inside
This nightmare that's taking every part of me

Believe in me, and set me free
I'll drag these memories through the dark void
One more chance to fall asleep inside (Just let me be)
This nightmare that's taking every part of me (My savior, please)
One more chance to fall asleep
Inside, this nightmare that's taking every part of me

Believe in me, and set me free
I'll drag these memories through the dark void
