A Day To Remember - Bad Vibrations Lyrics






Bad Vibrations

Don't forget that this is a choice
Pick your poison, live with remorse
Don't forget that this is a choice
Pick your poison, live with remorse

I could burn a hole with my eyes that cuts straight through the skin
No more love, no more resolution
It's getting harder bearing the darkness within
I gotta let it out, I'm gonna let it...

I can feel your bad vibrations
All around me, all consuming
Corrupting all that I am

This pain is a sickness
Looming over me, and I can't escape it
Casting shadows that continue to shape
Who I am on any given day

It's like a fog surrounds me applying pressure within
Weighing me down, seeing in double vision
It hits so hard I stu-stu-stutter my speech
Ya go kinda cold inside dancing on thin ice

I can feel your bad vibrations
All around me, all consuming
Corrupting all that I am

This pain is a sickness
Looming over me, and I can't escape it
Casting shadows that continue to shape
Who I am on any given day

This pain is a sickness
Looming over me, and I can't escape it
Casting shadows that continue to shape
Who I am on any given day

Toxic
Toxic
Toxic

This darkness, this darkness
Leaves me empty like I am the heartless

Toxic
Toxic within

Paranoia

Go!

Expect the worst of everyone I meet
Count the clock cause I can't f*cking sleep
Shooting pain like a heart attack
Call my friends I might not make it back

The doctor says I'm headed for destruction
Something's gotta give

I'm like a time bomb ticking in your head
Paranoia clouding your judgement
And no matter what you do about it, about it, about it
I'm still in your head

It's got me scared, scared of the unknown
Unknown numbers been blowing up my phone
I'm hearing footsteps outside of my house
I'm afraid someones trying to take me out

The doctor says I'm headed for destruction
Can I f*cking live?

I'm like a time bomb ticking in your head
Paranoia clouding your judgment
And no matter what you do about it, about it, about it
I'm like a time bomb ticking in your head
Paranoia clouding your judgment
And no matter what you do about it, about it, about it
I'm still in your head

(I'm still in your head)
(I'm still in your head)
I am your breaking point

You can't run, you can't hide
I'll be there when you close your eyes at night
I'm always watching you

The doctor says I'm headed for destruction
My time is wearing thin

I'm like a time bomb ticking in your head
Paranoia clouding your judgment
And no matter what you do about it, about it, about it
I'm like a time bomb ticking in your head
Paranoia clouding your judgment
And no matter what you do about it, about it, about it
I'm still in your head

Naivety

What I hate about getting older
Where's my naivety?
Wonder when I'm gonna get taller
Where's my naivety?
Thinking back when we were younger
All of the things we believed that we could do
Don't wanna live by fear of failure
Where's my naivety?

Somehow lost along the way

This is me, honestly
I've got no apologies
I'm done chasing things that don't belong to me
This is real, it's how I feel
With one shoulder on the wheel
What I'm searching for grows further out of reach

What I hate about getting older
Where's my naivety?
Wonder what it's like not being sober
Where's my naivety?
Looking back when we were younger
Every mistake was a chance that we could take
Now I think I'm just getting colder
Where's my naivety?

It got lost along the way

This is me, honestly
I've got no apologies
I'm done chasing things that don't belong to me
This is real, it's how I feel
With one shoulder on the wheel
What I'm searching for grows further out of reach

I swear you won't take me back
I don't care that's all in my past
I'm waiting for what's next
And I won't let it slip away
Get me through another day

This is me, honestly
I've got no apologies
I'm done chasing things that don't belong to me
This is real, it's how I feel
With one shoulder on the wheel
What I'm searching for grows further out of reach

What I hate about getting older
Where's my naivety?
Where's my naivety?

Exposed

I won't accept your fear
Another stagnant year
I'm pro-American but anti-politician
They'll trade you a voice
For an illusion of choice
Truth hits like a god damn premonition

Inroads to the hangman's noose
We got a lot to lose
Is this where you wanna be?
Exhumed they're not through with you
Until you're left exposed
Is this who you wanna be?

Take what's been given or have none
The only claim of the workers in song
Get back in line you've all been warned
"We was beat when we was born"

Inroads to the hangman's noose
We got a lot to lose
Is this where you wanna be?
Exhumed they're not through with you
Until you're left exposed
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?
Is this who you wanna be?

Like a shark that's combing the surface
We got a taste for blood
Don't believe what the pacifist tells you
No war, no peace

Don't believe what the pacifist tells you
No war, no peace

Bullfight

What a waste, I see you now and then,
But mostly we pretend
We're not more strangers than we're friends.
Then we say, what we need to say,
To try and get away
From the tension we create.

Why can't we say the things, the things we wish we would?
Why can't we laugh the way, the way we know we should?
Fall under the weight of all the pressure that's misplaced
Flaws that I embrace

Everybody sees your head's hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.
Everybody sees your head's hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.

I get
I get
I get so misunderstood

Something changed the way we interact,
Now we can't get it back.
Another relic of the past. (Relic of the past)
Makes ya think, did I ever know you at all?
Follow until I fall
Vultures circling in the sun, the sun, the sun, the sun.

Why can't we say the things, the things we wish we would?
Why can't we laugh the way, the way we know we should?
Fall under the weight of all the pressure that's misplaced
Flaws that I embrace

Everybody sees your head's hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.
Everybody sees your head's hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.

I get
I get
I get so misunderstood

You can't just avoid the issue,
Ya should have learned from the things we've been through.
You don't know what you have until it's lost,
Till the hammer drops.

Brace, fall. [repeat]

Fall under the weight of all the pressure that's misplaced
Flaws that I embrace

Everybody sees your head's hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.
Everybody sees your head's hung low.
They don't ask, they don't wanna know us.
I'll be the one, I'll be your spark,
I'll be your light led through the darkness.

I get
I get
I get so misunderstood

Reassemble

I have come undone
Desperate and out of touch
Fall when I should run
Am I worth a reassemble?

I have come undone
This illness is my crutch
Call out to anyone
Am I worth a reassemble?

I toss, turn beneath the waves
A silent victim of the depths
Cast aside I'm scrambling to catch my...
I can't find my way out as I'm descending
My path remains unclear as the water overtakes me

Drowning in my despair

I have come undone
Desperate and out of touch
Fall when I should run
Am I worth a reassemble?

I have come undone
This illness is my crutch
Call out to anyone
Am I worth a reassemble?

My thoughts are not my own
No (no) where's (where's) safe alone in the tide

I'm alone and it sinks in

This current's pulling me under

Drowning in my despair

I have come undone
Desperate and out of touch
Fall when I should run
Am I worth a reassemble?

I have come undone
This illness is my crutch
Call out to anyone
Am I worth a reassemble?

The surf's against us. Are we able?
Forgive our faults when they're shameful
Let's be honest with ourselves
Worn and broken, reassembled
Forgive our thoughts when they're shameful
Let's be honest with ourselves
Let's be honest with ourselves

Justified

Burn me alive
If you feel that's justified
Burn me alive
If you feel that's justified

Burn me alive
If you feel that's justified
I need more than faith
To see you on the other side, the other side

Can you hear me?
The lowly one
Do ya fear me?
You righteous ones

Bow down to all Earth's creation
Every man of every nation
Who's right and wrong at times like these?

Burn me alive
If you feel that's justified
I need more than faith
To see you on the other side, the other side

Can you hear me?
The lowly one
Do ya fear me?
You righteous ones

I believe in a life before death
That happiness and virtue coexist
And if you only believe to hedge the bet
You're gonna pay your debt

Burn me alive
If you feel that's justified
I need more than faith
To see you on the other side, the other side

The lowly ones need more than this
To see you on the other side, the other side

Burn me alive
Feel nothing, leave nothing
Learn nothing then be on your way
Be on your way

Do ya fear me?
You righteous ones
Can you hear me?
The lowly one
The lowly one
The lowly ones

We Got This

To anyone who's alone in a crowded room:
Put your hands up high, sing it out of tune.
It's these late night hours we spend
That help me up from down.

You're just like me when I was your age
We all knew better, name it, we've been there.
When I had a place that I could call my own.
We spent most days, counting the ways
We would get through it, but they said we were stupid.
Now all those kids say they knew us so well.

Come on get real.

To anyone who's alone in a crowded room:
Put your hands up high, sing it out of tune.
It's these late night hours we spend
That help me up from down.
We got this.

I'm not afraid of anything
Here's to the future, it was nice that I knew ya.
Go find something that makes you feel complete.
Till next time we meet.

To anyone who's alone in a crowded room:
Put your hands up high, sing it out of tune.
It's these late night hours we spend
That help me up from down.
We got this.

To anyone who's alone in a crowded room:
Put your hands up high, sing it out of tune.
It's these late night hours we spend
That help me up from down.
We got this.

You're just like me when I was your age.
Things do get better, trust me I've been there.
You're just like me when I was your age.
Things do get better, trust me I've been there.
You're just like me when I was your age.
Things do get better, trust me I've been there.
You're just like me when I was your age.
Things do get better, trust me I've been there.

Same About You

I just felt a wave, an emotion
And right then I knew that everything had changed
A whole side of you that went missing's gone
And all I'd thought of you is wrong

Gotta step away for perspective
Need to take a chance to clear my head
Don't wanna understand your position
Oughta wash my hands of you and run

Think I lost my nerve like I lost you
Held trapped by what we were

No, I'll never feel the same
Same about you, same about you
No, I'll never feel the same
Same about you, same about you

Spent time today reminiscing
Think I learned a lot about who we are
Couldn't diagnose your condition
But now I see the signs you left behind

Think I lost my nerve like I lost you
And the truth remains unheard

No, I'll never feel the same
Same about you, same about you
No, I'll never feel the same
Same about you, same about you

Some roads you can't come back from
When you extract truth from the lie

No, I'll never feel the same
Same about you, same about you
No, I'll never feel the same
Same about you, same about you

Turn Off The Radio

T-T-T-Turn off the radio

There's something missing
There's an anger living half the world away
I hope you listen for a person
With perspective that isn't always the same

No need to water it down right now
You play the victim, but it's all a charade
Times they, they are a-changin'
Get your things in order, or get out the way

And it goes on and on and on

Turn off the radio
Till they've got something real to say
Turn off the radio
To clear my mind and let me think
I need an answer, I've got the questions
Can't anyone out there just relate?
Turn off the radio
Turn off the radio

There's a division in our culture that we live with every day
We're just people eating people, such a sick sad world we live in today
All I know's I wanna be everything expected of me
So everyone we can agree somebody out there understands me

And it goes on and on and on

Turn off the radio
Till they've got something real to say
Turn off the radio
To clear my mind and let me think
I need an answer, I've got the questions
Can't anyone out there just relate?
Turn off the radio
Turn off the radio

Someone out there if you're listening
We're the victims of our indifference
Tell us more without controlling
What we think with what you're showing

Turn off the radio
Till they've got something real to say
Turn off the radio
To clear my mind and let me think
I need an answer, I've got the questions
Can't anyone out there just relate?
Turn off the radio

Forgive And Forget

I feel like a runaway
Seeing the light of day
For the first time, I'm drawing the line
It's hard to care when you know it all
In slow motion I watch you fall
Like you're blind, thoughts poison the mind
I always bend when it comes to you
I think you'll change, but ya never do
You never do, I enable you

Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget

Wish that I could say this to your face
Something different, something brave
Wish I would, but I never could
I feel you slowly pulling me in
I try to help, but it's sink or swim
And you're a weight, there's comfort in pain

Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget

You've drained all the love I had
All I had for you
Yeah you've drained all the love I had
All I had for you
All I had for you

Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget
Let me down, let me down like only you know how
Shut me out, shut me out, forgive and forget
Forgive and forget

Negative Space

These walls, this house
Wasn't the plan when I built it out
We fell, from great heights
Disgusted looks in my neighbors' eyes

You reflect me in my negative space
Please forgive me for the time you'll waste
If you let me I'll give you a taste
Everyone eventually lets you down
Everyone eventually lets you down

Your heart, my lungs
In unison when I bite my tongue
Escape, at long last
Burn the bridge never looking back

You reflect me in my negative space
Please forgive me for the time you'll waste
If you let me I'll give you a taste
Everyone eventually lets you down
Everyone eventually lets you down
Lets you down

I don't care
I don't care
About what you think
About what you think

I won't hear
I won't hear
Anything you say
Anything you say

You reflect me in my negative space
Please forgive me for the time you'll waste
If you let me I'll give you a taste
Everyone eventually lets you down
Everyone eventually lets you down
Everyone eventually lets you down
Everyone eventually lets you down

In Florida

December ain't cold at all this year in Florida
But I'm still chilled to the bone
The mind plays tricks this time of year in Florida
It's not the time to be alone

I feel the less you love the less you feel alive
I feel to understand it starts from the inside
And I feel that patience is a lesson learned in time
To be good with your own life's to be good with mine

Time stands still this time of year in Florida
The only time I feel at home
The neighborhood kids run down the road in Florida
It's got me scared I missed the boat

I feel the less you love the less you feel alive
I feel to understand it starts from the inside
And I feel that patience is a lesson learned in time
To be good with your own life's to be good with mine
To be good with your own life's to be good with mine

I always knew that I would leave
But I didn't think it'd change a part of me
Can't get back to who I was back then (who I was back then)
Feels wrong to shut that out
Seems wrong to pretend, to pretend

I feel the less you love the less you feel alive
I feel to understand it starts from the inside
And I feel that patience is a lesson learned in time
To be good with your own life's to be good with mine
To be good with your own life's to be good with mine
