I Prevail : Lifelines
Lyrics
1. SCARS
(Try to tear us apart but know that we'll wear our scars)
Excuses, excuses are all that I hear
All I can see when I look in the mirror
I can't escape all these thoughts in my mind
They're waiting to haunt me, night after night
I feel it in my bones, and everything I know
It's underneath my skin, and it won't let go
They know me all too well, but only time will tell
If this is who I am, do I know myself?
Don't forget your life's your own
Don't ever let it go
In the heat of the moment when fear has you frozen
You're crashing and burning when life's at its coldest
Don't fall too far from who you are
They can cut us but we'll wear our scars
In the heat of the moment when fear has you frozen
You're crashing and burning when life's at its coldest
Don't fall too far from who you are
Try to tear us apart but know that we'll wear our scars
Try to tear us apart but know that we'll wear our scars
Denial, denial is all that I've known
Holding me hostage, I'm never alone
Fighting for air, I'll fight to survive
My soul's not for sale, I won't pay the price
I feel it in my bones, and everything I know
It's underneath my skin, but I won't let go
Don't forget your life's your own, don't ever let it go
In the heat of the moment when fear has you frozen
You're crashing and burning when life's at its coldest
Don't fall too far from who you are
They can cut us but we'll wear our scars
In the heat of the moment when fear has you frozen
You're crashing and burning when life's at its coldest
Don't fall too far from who you are
Try to tear us apart but know that we'll wear our scars
You can cut us up but we will survive
You had your chance now it's our time to stand up and...
Rise!
We will survive
Right now, the tables turn
We're gonna scream it out loud
And let our voices be heard
In the heat of the moment when fear has you frozen
You're crashing and burning when life's at its coldest
Don't fall too far from who you are
They can cut us but we'll wear our scars
In the heat of the moment when fear has you frozen
You're crashing and burning when life's at its coldest
Don't fall too far from who you are
Try to tear us apart but know that we'll wear our scars
I feel it in my bones and everything I know
I feel it in my bones, I feel it, I feel it
I feel it in my heart when it all turns to dark
Try to tear us apart but know that we'll wear our scars
2. STUCK IN YOUR HEAD
You're not the one I want in my bed
But I'm gonna be the song stuck in your head
Stuck in your head
Guess what?
For the record you're the broken one
Tried to sing along but we got stuck
So we turn it over and over again
But now,
A thousand scratches on the song we held
A million cuts finally wore it down
Couldn't turn it over and over again
Turn it over and over again
This'll be the last time that I spin our life
Never gonna play again
You're not the one I want in my bed
I'm not the song you want in your head
This'll be the last time that I spin our life
Never gonna play again
You're not the one I want in my bed
But I'm gonna be the song stuck in your head
Stuck in your head
Guess what?
Didn't wanna have to write these words
Now you're on the other side reversed
Never turning over and over again
So now,
I'll turn it off cause it's so damn loud
All your lies finally wore me down
You can skip our track cause I'm not coming back
This'll be the last time that I spin our life
Never gonna play again
You're not the one I want in my bed
I'm not the song you want in your head
This'll be the last time that I spin our life
Never gonna play again
You're not the one I want in my bed
But I'm gonna be the song stuck in your head
You made me sick, round and round again
So I'm turning you off and I'm trading you in
Sick, so sick again
Now I'm turning you off and I'm trading you in
This'll be the last time that I spin our life
Never gonna play again
You're not the one I want in my bed
I'm not the song you want in your head
This'll be the last time that I spin our life
Never gonna play again
You're not the one I want in my bed
But I'm gonna be the song stuck in your head
Round and round again,
Now I'm turning you off and I'm trading you in (Stuck in your head)
Round and round again,
Now I'm turning you off and I'm trading you in
This'll be the last time that I spin our life
Never gonna play again (Never gonna play again)
You're not the one I want in my bed
But I'm gonna be the song stuck in your head
3. LIFELINES
When I open my eyes and see the lines that live on the life I left behind
I feel disconnected from the place that I call home
When I try to rewind I can’t design, a way to go back to that place and time
I remember that moment that changed everything I know
Everything I know
Cut up into pieces, looking for a reason
Who’s gonna be there to make me whole?
I can’t stop the bleeding
Looking for a meaning
Throw me a line and bring me back home
Won’t you say something, say something
I can’t do this alone
Cut up into pieces, looking for a reason
Throw me a line and bring me back home
I live with all the goodbyes, doesn’t matter how hard I try
They end in long nights spent up looking back on my life
I feel disconnected from the place that I call home
They hit me from the blind side, caught me in the blink of an eye
Just like a landmine going off inside my mind
I remember the moment that changed everything I know
Everything I know
Cut up into pieces, looking for a reason
Who’s gonna be there to make me whole?
I can’t stop the bleeding
Looking for a meaning
Throw me a line and bring me back home
Won’t you say something, say something
I can’t do this alone
Cut up into pieces, looking for a reason
Throw me a line and bring me back home
This life can cut like a knife, it leaves lines and divides
It leaves lines and divides
This life can cut like a knife, it leaves lines that divide a before and an after
Cut up into pieces, looking for a reason
Who’s gonna be there to make me whole?
I can’t stop the bleeding
Looking for a meaning
Throw me a line and bring me back home
Won’t you say something, say something now
I can’t do this alone
Cut up into pieces, looking for a reason
Throw me a line and bring me back home
When I open my eyes and see the lines
I see the lines
Now they live on the life I left behind
I see the lines
4. COME AND GET IT
Every single time I turn around, my name is in your mouth
Soon you'll see, you can say what you want, you'll never be me
I'll just bite my tongue, and leave your mouth to run
Soon you'll see, if you want it come get it you know where I'll be
If you want it come get it you know where I'll be
If you want it come get it you know where I'll be
Look at you now
Another face in the crowd
I am, I am the headline
Look in my eyes
And read between the lines
I am, I am the headline
I am, I am, I am the headline
I am, I am, I am the headline
Deep down I love it when you hate me
Keep it up, it's funny that you can't see
This is everything you wanted to be
So give up, give up, feed your hate to me
I'll just bite my tongue and leave your mouth to run
This is everything you wanted to be
So give up, give up, feed your hate to me
Say what you want, you can say what you want
You can say what you want, you'll never be me
Look at you now
Another face in the crowd
I am, I am the headline
Look in my eyes
And read between the lines
I am, I am the headline
Take a look around, tell me what you see
The wolves are out
It's about to get rowdy
GO
Welcome to our stomping grounds
Where the kids throw down and the shit gets loud
This is an invitation to get the fuck out if you can't take it
Look at you now
Another face in the crowd
I am, I am the headline
Look in my eyes
And read between the lines
I am, I am the headline
I am, I am, I am the headline
I am, I am, I am the headline
5. CHAOS
Home is where you make it
From a distance I feel lost, you can tell
Cause all the frames have been replaced and off the shelf
Chasing shadows as they follow me, but I can't catch what I can't see
Feeling so detached from what I know
I'm living the truth, you're speaking in lies
It's getting easier to say goodbye
The harder I try, the farther I fall
Away from the place I called my own
I will never know what happens next
Even when my heart beats out my chest
Through all of the chaos, I'll find a way out
I know home is where you make it
I will always fight for one more breath
Even in a cardiac arrest
Through all of the chaos, I'll find a way out
I know home is where you make it
Home is where you make it
How could you turn your back on your own?
Cast out left to walk alone
Now I see who you are, did you think I would get this far?
And when it's all said and done
I will never know what happens next
Even when my heart beats out my chest
Through all of the chaos, I'll find a way out
I know home is where you make it
I will always fight for one more breath
Even in a cardiac arrest
Through all of the chaos, I'll find a way out
I know home is where you make it
The time is now, it's now
I'll stand on my own, I've got some shit to say and this is how it goes
One – you shut me out of everything you do
Two – the hell you put me through
Three – you never would accept me
I'm letting go
I will never know, know what happens next
I can feel my heart, heart beat out my chest
I will always fight for one more breath
Even in a cardiac arrest
Through all of the chaos, I'll find a way out
I know home is where you make it
(Even when I feel my heart beat out my chest)
Home is where you make it
(Even when I'm in a cardiac arrest)
Home is where you make it
6. ALONE
We used to have it all
It was us against the world, but now
I’ve been sleeping on my own
Spending all these nights alone knowing you’re not coming home
Cause you’re running through my dreams
It’s like you’re on repeat
Feels like eternity, and I can’t believe
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
I let you in, you bled me out
You left me skin and bone, you left me all alone
You left me all alone
I would’ve gave it all
Truth be told I can’t believe you’re gone
Like a dream I can’t recall
Now I gotta face the fact that you’re never coming back
Cause you’re running through my dreams
It’s like you’re on repeat
Feels like eternity, and I can’t believe
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
I let you in, you bled me out
You left me skin and bone, you left me all alone
You used to run, run through my veins
And to be honest, I know I’ll never be the same
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
You left me all alone
I see you in my dreams
I can’t believe you’re gone
When it’s too dark to see
I’ll leave the light on
I’ll leave the light on
I’ll leave the light on
When it’s too dark to see
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
I let you in, you bled me out
You left me skin and bone, you left me all alone
You used to run, run through my veins
And to be honest, I know I’ll never be the same
I let you in, you left me out
You left me on my own, you left me all alone
7. OUTCAST
Get up!
We are the lost cause, with nothing left to lose
Crossing every line, we’re breaking every rule
Forget your future, and fuck your rumors
Another generation built from underneath
We are the outcast, but we’re where we belong
You tried to shut us up but we’re still singing this song
We are the outcast, made this way from the start
Twisted and deranged the ones you fear in the dark
We are the, we are the, we are the outcast
We are the, we are the, we are the outcast
We are the, we are the (Outcast)
We are the nightmare, the voice in your head
Creeping up behind, we’re breathing down your neck
So fuck your future, and fuck your rumors
We’re everybody that you never thought we’d be
We are the outcast, but we’re where we belong
You tried to shut us up but we’re still singing this song
We are the outcast, made this way from the start
Twisted and deranged the ones you fear in the dark
We are the, we are the, we are the outcast
We are the, we are the, we are the outcast
We are the, we are the (Outcast)
We were never what you wanted us to be
A generation built from underneath
C’mon
We are the same, united by one name
We are the same, united by one name
Outcast, outcast, outcast
United by one name
We are the outcast, but we’re where we belong
You tried to shut us up but we’re still singing this song
We are the outcast, made this way from the start
Twisted and deranged the ones you fear in the dark
We are the, we are the, we are the outcast
We are the same, united by one name
We are the same, united by one name
(Outcast)
8. RISE
You gotta fight through the pain, to get to the top
You gotta push through it all, if it’s what you want
Screaming this is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believers
R I S E, let’s light a match and ignite the streets, screaming
R I O T, but now it’s time to give ‘em something to say
So dig a little bit, never quit, keep on that hustle
Get up and take another hit, hold on through the struggle, screaming
R I S E, let’s light a match and ignite the streets
Let’s light ‘em up, light ‘em up
You gotta fight through the pain, to get to the top
You gotta push through it all, if it’s what you want
Screaming this is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believe
You gotta fight through the pain, to get to the top
You gotta push through it all, if it’s what you want
Screaming this is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believers
The road is long, but it’s the one to take
You gotta put in the work, it’s time to make or break
Though the road is long, but it’s the one to take
You gotta put in the work, it’s time to make or break
You gotta fight through the pain, to get to the top
You gotta push through it all, if it’s what you want
Screaming this is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believe
You gotta fight through the pain, to get to the top
You gotta push through it all, if it’s what you want
Screaming this is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believers
Make them believe, write down your name in history, you gotta
Make them believe, one day they’ll remember me
You gotta stand up tall give ‘em something to say
With you back against the wall be somebody to hate
Make them believe, write down your name in history
You gotta fight through the pain, to get to the top
You gotta push through it all, if it’s what you want
This is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believe
You gotta fight through the pain, to get to the top
You gotta push through it all, if it’s what you want
Screaming this is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believers
Make them believe, dig a little deeper, make ‘em believers
This is a call to the dreamers
Dig a little deeper, make ‘em believers
9. ALREADY DEAD
I’d pull the trigger but you’re already dead
If I could bring you back to life I would kill you again
Tell me now how do you sleep at night?
With the devil in your bed laying right by your side
And as you count all your dollars, you can count down the days
Cause when it’s all said and done I’ll fucking spit on your grave
I would pull the trigger but you’re already dead
If I could bring you back to life, I would do it all again
And I looked in your eyes as it all came to an end
I swear if I could bring you back to life, I’d kill you again
I’d kill you again
Tell me how do you live with yourself?
Lives are falling apart while you’re consumed by your wealth
The blood is on your hands and your skin’s stained red
But when I’m done with you, you’ll beg for your last breath
I would pull the trigger but you’re already dead
If I could bring you back to life, I would do it all again
And I looked in your eyes as it all came to an end
I swear if I could bring you back to life, I’d kill you again
Pull the trigger
Pull the trigger
I pulled the trigger and I sent you to hell
These are my final words to you, go fuck yourself
10. PULL THE PLUG
Somebody wake me up
Breathe in and breathe out, that’s what I tell myself
When the voices inside say that I won’t survive
When did I become so cold and so numb?
To the hope in my mind, to the fire drowning inside
Wake me up, I’m seconds from the end
I’m dying to feel, I’ve been dying to live
Will somebody give me a sign, so I know I’m alive?
It’s time to wake me up, or pull the plug
Somebody wake me up
Am I better off dead, is it all in my head?
There’s a snake in my mind, spitting venom and lies
It runs through my veins, paralyzed by the pain
I’m at the end of my rope, as it’s placed around my throat
Wake me up, I’m seconds from the end
I’m dying to feel, I’ve been dying to live
Will somebody give me a sign, so I know I’m alive?
It’s time to wake me up, or pull the plug
I can’t wake up
I’ve been screaming but no words come out
You can’t hear me, it’s just silence now
Trapped in a nightmare with my eyes sewn shut
Is this what I’ve become? Somebody…
Wake me up, I’m seconds from the end
I’m dying to feel, I’ve been dying to live
Will somebody give me a sign, so I know I’m alive?
It’s time to wake me up, or pull the plug
Pull the plug
Somebody wake me up
11. ONE MORE TIME
Don’t wanna wait for tomorrow
I’m gonna say it today
I’m sick of making excuses
I’m sick of being afraid
When all we have is a moment
With so much left to say
Don’t wanna wait for tomorrow
I’m gonna say it today
Cause all my life I’ve tried to hide
Behind the fear inside
And I can’t remember why
Sometimes you gotta go down swinging
Get up, get up, feel the kick drum beating
One more time, one more time, tonight
Sometimes you gotta fight that feeling
Get up, get up, feel your heart still beating
One more time, one more time, tonight
I know you’re chasing tomorrow
But don’t give up on today
If you keep making excuses
You’ll always stand in your way
When all we have is a moment
With so much left to say
I know you’re chasing tomorrow
But don’t give up on today
Cause all your life you’ve tried to hide
Behind the fear inside
And you can’t remember why
Sometimes you gotta go down swinging
Get up, get up, feel the kick drum beating
One more time, one more time, tonight
Sometimes you gotta fight that feeling
Get up, get up, feel your heart still beating
One more time, one more time, tonight
I don’t wanna feel down down down
When nobody’s around round round
I don’t wanna feel down down down
When nobody’s around
I don’t wanna feel down down down
When nobody’s around round round
I don’t wanna feel down down down
When nobody’s around
Sometimes you gotta go down swinging
Get up, get up, feel the kick drum beating
One more time, one more time, tonight
Sometimes you gotta fight that feeling
Get up, get up, feel your heart still beating
One more time, one more time, tonight
One more time
12. MY HEART I SURRENDER
I'm a ghost in your eyes.
A shadow you can't seem to recognize.
I have a thought of you for every, star in the sky
But I'm scared, I'll never cross your mind.
Yeah, I'm scared.
Will our stars ever align?
Will two hearts, beat in time?
These words you should always remember,
To you, my heart I surrender.
Chasing love that can never be mine.
Maybe one day you'll realize.
These words you should always remember,
To you, my heart I surrender.
My heart I surrender.
And I can't count the times.
I stayed awake pretending you were mine.
Now I'm left here with this emptiness inside,
Why can't I make you mine?
Will our stars ever align?
Will two hearts, beat in time?
These words you should always remember,
To you, my heart I surrender.
Chasing love that can never be mine.
Maybe one day you'll realize.
These words you should always remember,
To you, my heart I surrender.
My heart I surrender.
Will our stars ever align?
Will two hearts, beat in time?
These words you should always remember,
To you, my heart I surrender.
Chasing love that can never be mine.
Maybe one day you'll realize.
These words you should always remember,
To you, my heart I surrender.
13. WORST PART OF ME
You’re the worst part of me
How did I let you in so deep?
You’re the worst part of me
How did I let you in so deep?
Gotta dig you out of my skin
This is where it has to end
I let you bury me alive for far too long
But I’m climbing back up to the surface, back to where I belong
If we’re being honest you broke every little promise
That you made to me, I was too blind to see
I was so defenseless now I’m coming to my senses
After all these years, it’s finally crystal clear
You pulled me in with a warm embrace
To drag me down to the darkest place
I want to feel just like myself again
But with these chains around my ankles I can’t get away
If we’re being honest you broke every little promise
That you made to me, I was too blind to see
I was so defenseless now I’m coming to my senses
After all these years, it’s finally crystal clear
You had control of me for far too long
Manipulated me but now I’m gone
I was so defenseless now I’m coming to my senses
After all these years, it’s finally crystal clear
After all these years, it’s finally crystal clear
I let you bury me alive for far too long
But I’m climbing back up to the surface back to where I belong
And now it’s clear that you’re the worst part of me
How did I ever let you claw your way in so deep
If we’re being honest you broke every little promise
That you made to me, I was too blind to see
I was so defenseless now I’m coming to my senses
After all these years, it’s finally crystal clear
You had control of me for far too long
Manipulated me but now I’m gone
I was so defenseless now I’m coming to my senses
After all these years, it’s finally crystal clear
