Track Lyrics
Without Walls Lyrics
[Intro]
This is who we are!
These are the roads we paved
The strength we found and
The mistakes we made along the way
This is who we are!
These are the roads we paved
Tthe strength we found and
The mistakes we made along the way
This is who we are!
These are the roads we paved
Tthe strength we found and
The mistakes we made along the way
This is who we are!
These are the roads we paved
And now I've had enough of your judgement
[Verse]
You pass it so easily
If you think that I take it to heart
Now you see this is my design
You don't know the cost
So I'll keep my faith and
You can stay lost
Who is with me!?
We have the strength to shed light
And this is the moment suspended in time
No limits, no boundaries at all
Just when you think we conform to a scene
We break down the wall!
[Outro]
Alive in the Lights Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you see the minds that have changed?
Don't you see the lives that have been saved?
Don't you care to see the difference I've made?
[Chorus]
Listen closely, the highways call my name
Don't you see this is my everything?
It may not seem right to you
And you might not approve but it's real
This is the only thing that makes me feel
What more do I have to do
To finally prove myself to you?
What is it that you need to see
To finally believe this is who I'm supposed to be?
Most days I feel like your punching bag
But I would never let it hold me back
I just wish for once you knew
How it felt to be brought down lower than everything else
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you care to see the difference I've made?
[Chorus]
Listen closely, the highways call my name
Don't you see this is my everything?
It may not seem right to you
And you might not approve but it's real
This is the only thing that makes me feel
This is who I am! This is my life
I come alive in the lights!
I come alive in the lights
[Breakdown]
What will be written on your tombstone?
You sat behind a desk
You had no backbone
What will be written on your tombstone?
You sold your soul, grew old alone
Would you prefer that I become a lifeless
Hollow shell such as yourself?
Would you prefer that I give up my dreams
And lose all hope just like everyone else?
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't you see the lives that have been saved?
[Chorus]
Listen closely, the highways call my name
Don't you see this is my everything?
It may not seem right to you
And you might not approve but it's real
This is the only thing that makes me feel
Prove Me Right Lyrics
[Intro]
We put our lives in the hands of the ones that claimed they truly cared
Come to find it's all just a lie and when we needed them no one was there!
[Verse 1]
I swear I'm not bitter
I just see them for what they are;
Money Hungry Cowards!
Sucking the blood out of artists and killing the art!
So count out the money you stole from starving artists you watched pave the way
But you know just as well as I do, without us you're just an empty name!
[Chorus]
Where were you when they had no faith in us?
Where were you when they shut us out?
(It's funny you show up now)
And if it fell apart I know that you'd be nowhere to be found
We did this on our own
Thanks for nothing!
[Verse 2]
The ones that kicked me when I was down
Are the same ones that say they need me now
That's fine, I'll play the game but just know
I told you so!
[Breakdown]
I've seen the greed in their eyes
Well I guess I'm nothing but a dollar sign
I've seen the greed in their eyes
Well I guess I'm nothing but a dollar sign
[Pre-Chorus]
Four years gone by, now everything is fine, no thanks to you
You'll never know, nor do you care about what it took or the things we've been through!
[Chorus]
Where were you when they had no faith in us?
Where were you when they shut us out?
(It's funny you show up now)
And if it fell apart I know that you'd be nowhere to be found
We did this on our own
Thanks for nothing!
[Verse 3]
Ignorance had me by the throat
From the day I learned how to sing
But now my eyes are open wide
And this is what I see
[Breakdown]
I see the greed in their eyes!
They had me fooled at first because I believed, all the lies!
Oh, the lies!
I see the greed in their eyes!
They had us fooled at first but we're taking control this time
We're taking control this time!
[Chorus]
Where were you when they had no faith in us?
Where were you when they shut us out?
It's funny you show up now
And if it fell apart I know that you'd be nowhere to be found
We did this on our own
Thanks for nothing!
[Outro / Breakdown]
So count your money and I'll count my friends
We'll see who's richer in the end!
Vices Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Drowning myself every night
Me versus me has always been my biggest fight
I've been so confused for so long
And the answers always seem so far out of sight
So I fill it up, fill it up one more time
So when everything is wrong at least I still feel right
I'm in the tunnel but I can't see the light
I just want to feel whole again
So I can let you in
I just want to feel whole again
I just want to feel whole
Oh where is my self control?
Where is my self control?
[Chorus]
I've been thinking this could be the end of me
Who is this person in the mirror I see?
I have come so far, thought I was so strong
The truth is I've just fed myself a lie for too long
I never thought this would be me
[Verse 2]
But now I'm on the verge of self destruction
How could this happen to me?
I've never been the type to run from anything, run from anything
So sick and tired of wondering where my morals have gone
My father didn't raise me to become this
Where did I go wrong?
There is not much left of me
I can't feel the ground beneath my feet
There is not much left of me
I let everyone around me down
And now I'm headed to the bottom of the bottle
Just to block out the sound
God I need you now!
[Chorus]
I've been thinking this could be the end of me
Who is this person in the mirror I see?
I have come so far, thought I was so strong
The truth is I've just fed myself a lie for too long
This is my vice, this is me weak
[Bridge]
I need your love to erase this doubt
I need your hand to pull me out
Sometimes I feel like I will never learn
Because the bottle's always there when I have nowhere else to turn
Will I ever learn? Will I ever learn?
I take another sip
The dark room that I'm in becomes dimly lit
This can't be all there is
[Chorus]
I've been thinking this could be the end of me
Who is this person in the mirror I see?
I have come so far, thought I was so strong
The truth is I've just fed myself a lie for too long
And the only one to blame is me
[Outro]
Who have I become?
This is my desperate shout
Pull me out!
Pull me out!
God I need you now!
Legacy Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Chances to move mountains are few and far between
But only unseen by those who choose them to be
Live every day like it's your last chance to be heard and seen
Cause the good die young and the great change the course of history
Stop blending in and start speaking out
You'll never know what you can do if you don't try now
Lift up your eyes discouraged one
Keep moving forward 'til your battles have been won
[Chorus]
They say you were created to do great things
But words only come to life when you believe
Stop blending in (stop blending in)
Start speaking out
Don't miss your opportunity
[Verse 2]
Do you have the courage to follow your heart? (follow your heart)
Your life could be over before you ever had a chance to start
Take what you can get while you can get it
And don't let anybody stand in your way
If you've got what it takes, make them believe it
They need to hear you from a mile away
[Chorus]
They say you were created to do great things
But words only come to life when you believe
Stop blending in (stop blending in)
Start speaking out
Don't miss your opportunity
[Bridge]
Lift up your eyes discouraged one
When you feel like giving up
When they say it can't be done
It's up to you to show them why they're wrong
Lift up your eyes discouraged one
When you feel like giving up
When they say it can't be done
It's up to you to show them why they're wrong
Lift up your eyes discouraged one
When you feel like giving up
When they say it can't be done
Show them they're wrong
[Breakdown]
What you do is up to you
Follow your heart and you will never lose
[Pre-Chorus]
They say you were created to do great things
But words only come to life when you believe
[Chorus]
You were created to do great things
But words only come to life when you believe
Stop blending in (stop blending in)
Start speaking out
Don't miss your opportunity
[Breakdown/Outro]
Reach for the sky
Nothing's impossible when you realize the strength is inside
Embrace the struggle when it's all you can see
Words only come to life when you believe
Jezebel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She's on the prowl
She wants it all
And she'll stop at nothing
Everyone knows
She's well aware of the fact
That her self respect was long lost
On her search for something
[Verse 2]
First in line
To give it up to the guy at the bar
Buying two drinks at a time
One track mind
It's disgusting that she thinks
She's got it all figured out
[Verse 3]
But what she doesn't know
Is that to us she's just another one of them
Girls like you are a dime a dozen
[Chorus]
Just leave! Just leave!
We're all better off without your disease, disease!
Take your pick from the willing
But you'll never get me
It's obvious the stage is all that you see
So take your pick from the willing
But you'll never get me
Just go!
[Verse 5]
The innocent look on her face is all fake
She's worn out and worn down
From all the one night stands
Never any interest in a real man
Or a love that will last
[Verse 6]
Oh what a waste!
What a waste of a beautiful face
(What a beautiful face)
Was it the way she was raised
Or just the terrible choices she's chosen to make?
[Verse 7]
Every night it's all the same
She steals another heart so she can drop another name
Oh what a shame!
You're all the same
You're all the same!
[Verse 8]
All dressed up in purple and pink
She'll do whatever it takes to get to VIP
She thinks everyone wants to see her down on her knees
But what she doesn't know is everyone just wants her to leave!
[Chorus]
Just leave! Just leave!
We're all better off without your disease, disease!
Take your pick from the willing
But you'll never get me
It's obvious the stage is all that you see
So take your pick from the willing
But you'll never get me
[Bridge]
I can feel her staring at me
From across the room
She's got the worst of intentions
And she smells like trouble and cheap perfume
She's got one thing on her mind
Her target locked in sight
She never gets denied
But tonight she'll be surprised
She knows every word to every song I write
So let's have a sing-a-long
Hello, hello, hello and goodbye!
[Verse 9]
One track mind
You wanna check me off the list? Yah right!
The stage is all you see
So take your pick from the willing
But you'll never get me!
Losing Sight Lyrics
[Verse 1: Matty Mullins]
Wake me up, wake me up!
I can't remember when enough was enough
I used to be so in love
With this life I live before it was corrupt
Take me back to the me that wanted this more than anything
The me that said I would give up everything
Just to live one night in the life I'm questioning
Where is the inspiration I need?
How could I hate this? I used to crave this!
I tell my stories as a form of release
I need them just as much as they need me
[Chorus: Matty Mullins]
I always said I'd never waste a single second of this
But sometimes I find myself slipping through the cracks
How could I be such a hypocrite?
[Verse 2: Matty Mullins]
I think about it all so far;
What we've been through
Who we were, who we are
These days the weight of the world is on my shoulders
I never thought it would be this hard
[Danny Worsnop]
They come to me
To show them how they're supposed to be
I don't want to let them down
Lord give me the answers they seek
The strength to give to the weak
Give me the desire to plant the seed
This is so much bigger than me
I think I'm in over my head
Jet lagged and restless and always beat down
The rooms are full but I'm always alone
This load is too much to carry on my own
[Chorus: Matty Mullins]
I always said I'd never waste a single second of this
But sometimes I find myself slipping through the cracks
How could I be such a hypocrite?
We hold their hearts in the palms of our hands
I don't want to take it for granted
I don't want to waste the gift that I've been handed
[Bridge: Matty Mullins]
I dig deep for what I know I need;
To keep pushing forward, to keep moving!
But they expect so much from me
I'm just a person, a human being
I feel dead inside
So burnt out from all I've seen
Maybe I've gone blind
From always being in the spotlight
[Chorus: Matty Mullins]
I always said I'd never waste a single second of this
But sometimes I find myself slipping through the cracks
How could I be such a hypocrite?
We hold their hearts in the palms of our hands
I don't want to take it for granted
I don't want to waste the gift that I've been handed
[Outro: Matty Mullins]
Why does the fire in my heart grow dimmer with each passing day?
Where is my passion? Where is my flame?
