X Ambassadors - VHS Album Lyrics

Renegades

Run away-ay with me
Lost souls and reverie
Running wild and running free
Two kids, you and me

And I say
Hey, hey hey hey
Living like we're renegades
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Living like we're renegades
Renegades
Renegades

Long live the pioneers
Rebels and mutineers
Go forth and have no fear
Come close and lend an ear

And I say
Hey, hey hey hey
Living like we're renegades
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Living like we're renegades
Renegades
Renegades

All hail the underdogs
All hail the new kids
All hail the outlaws
Spielbergs and Kubricks

It's our time to make a move
It's our time to make amends
It's our time to break the rules
Let's begin...

And I say
Hey, hey hey hey
Living like we're renegades
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Leaving like we're renegades
Renegades
Renegades

Moving Day (Interlude)

Say it again, Margaret

We're gonna say goodbye to our house now
Yup!
Aren't you gonna walk room to room?
Run around in those big spaces?

Unsteady

Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady
Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady

Mama, come here
Approach, appear
Daddy, I'm alone
'Cause this house don't feel like home

If you love me, don't let go
If you love me, don't let go

Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady
Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady

Mother, I know
That you're tired of being alone
Dad, I know you're trying
To fight when you feel like flying

But if you love me, don't let go
If you love me, don't let go

Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady
Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady

Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady
A little unsteady

Hang On

When you feel like Indiana, Indiana Jones
When they got you in a trap, dodging darts and bones
When you're on the ropes, on the ropes
When they got you on the ropes, on the ropes

You know you got to hang on, hang on
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on, hang on, yeah
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on and don't let go
Like Indiana Jones, you got to hang on, hang on
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on

When they throw you down a hole, snakes and scorpions
When they got you in their evil grips with those ancient forces
When you're on the ropes, on the ropes
When they got you on the ropes, on the ropes

You know you got to hang on, hang on
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on, hang on, yeah
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on and don't let go
Like Indiana Jones, you got to hang on, hang on
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on

Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on, hang on
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on, hang on, yeah
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on and don't let go
Like Indiana Jones, you got to hang on, hang on
Put your old-found faith as though you got to hang on

Gorgeous

I might be better off without you
There's too many people all around you
All these vultures that surround you
They don't know a thing about you

You're so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous
Oh, so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous

Nobody understands you
You ain't nothing they can handle
Every man you put your hands on
You make him so god damn handsome

Feel, ooh, so pretty whenever you're around
Ooh, so pretty
Feel ten feet off the ground

You're so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous
Oh, so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous

We are young, we are free
Like renegades, like James Dean
Beat the drum, sing off-key
You set me free, you set me free

Cause you're so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous
Oh, so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous
You're so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous
So gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous
You're so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous
Oh, so gorgeous
Cause you make me feel gorgeous

Fear

[Verse 1 - X Ambassadors:]
There's a whisper, a rumor
Voices in the air outside
Got their eyes on the future
Yeah, the kids are coming up on the ride

[Pre-Chorus - X Ambassadors:]
God, I'm running in fear, fear, fear
God, I'm running in fear, fear, fear

[Chorus - Imagine Dragons:]
Lights out
I'm 'fraid of everything that moves
Lights out
I'm 'fraid of everything that moves

[Verse 2 - X Ambassadors:]
Roll this cup of deuces
The fuel will keep the fire alive
All the police think we're useless
Yeah, the kids are coming out tonight

[Pre-Chorus - X Ambassadors:]
God, I'm running in fear, fear, fear
God, I'm running in fear, fear, fear

[Chorus - Imagine Dragons:]
Lights out
I'm 'fraid of everything that moves
Lights out
I'm 'fraid of everything that moves
Lights out
Lights out

[Chorus - Imagine Dragons:]
Lights out
I'm afraid of everything that moves
Lights out
I'm afraid of everything that moves
Lights out
Lights out

Nervous

Too good
Ain't it all too good?
Looks like Lady Luck is waking up on the right side
Doing just fine
Get along just fine
I keep waking up afraid to look on the bright side

I get nervous when I'm happy
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down
I get nervous when I'm happy
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down

OK
Doing A-OK
I feel right as rain, and I can't complain; it's amazing
And I'm getting alright
There's not a cloud in sight
Lifts me off my feet, feels so sweet I can taste it

But I get nervous when I'm happy
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down
I get nervous when I'm happy
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down

I get nervous
I get nervous
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down

(I, I, I get) I get nervous (nervous)
(I, I, I get) So, so nervous
(I, I, I get) I get nervous (nervous)
(I, I, I get)

I get nervous when I'm happy
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down
I get nervous when I'm happy
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down

I get nervous
I get nervous
I get nervous cause what comes up must come down

Low Life

[Chorus - X Ambassadors:]
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I can't help myself from falling
Can't help myself from falling
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life

[Verse 1 - Jamie N Commons:]
Wanna be a better man, but it's a hard life
Without that love inside you, it's a cold bind
I started to reflect on all that's been before
Started to wonder, but, but you can't be sure

[Pre-Chorus - Jamie N Commons:]
Now please tell me I'm broke
It's much easier that way cause I just let you down
It's much easier that way

[Chorus - X Ambassadors:]
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I can't help myself from falling
Can't help myself from falling
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life

[Verse 2 - Jamie N Commons:]
There are words in my mind in the candlelight
Cold hands on my heart keeping slow time
And I started to reflect on all that's been before
Started to wonder, but you, you can't be sure

[Pre-Chorus - Jamie N Commons:]
Now please tell me I'm broke
It's much easier that way cause I just let you down
It's much easier that way

[Chorus - X Ambassadors:]
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I can't help myself from falling
Can't help myself from falling
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life

[Chorus - X Ambassadors & Jamie N Commons:]
I'm still just a low life
Nothing but a low life
I can't help myself from falling
I can't help myself from falling
Still just a low life
I'm nothing but a low life
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life

[Chorus - X Ambassadors (Jamie N Commons):]
I'm nothing but a low life (nothing but a low life)
Thinking 'bout my own life (thinking 'bout my own life)
I can't help myself from falling (can't help myself)
Can't help myself from falling (can't help myself)
I'm nothing but a low life (nothing but a low life)
Oh, I'm thinking 'bout my own life (thinking 'bout my own life)
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life

Adam & Noah's Priorities (Interlude)

[ADAM:]
I think the priorities have never changed - something we've all dreamed about doing since we were little kids, and it's, uh, it's a big step in the right direction for our careers now that we're here, drinking beer at 11 AM, laughing in the background

[NOAH:]
No, come on dude!

[ADAM:]
He just cares about beer!

And I feel alright

Got my head in the clouds
And my feet up off of the ground

Loveless

Young hearts broken in
Stolen parts, secondhand
You came, you came around
I was dried up, was broken down

I can't find it, can't find it
The road I traveled on is gone
I can't find it, can't find it
And I can't go on

I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love cause I'm helpless, helpless
I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love

Fickle heart, fickle mind
I gave it all, she robbed me blind
When I met you, I was half a man
With half a heart and half a chance

I can't find it, can't find it
The road I traveled on is gone
I can't find it, can't find it
And I can't go on

I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love cause I'm helpless, helpless
I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love

I can't give you my love
I can't give up on you
Give you the stars up above
I can't

I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love cause I'm helpless, helpless
I can't give you love cause I'm loveless, loveless
I can't give you love
I can't give you love
I can't give you love

Jungle

Yeah
Yeah

Well it's too long living in the same old lives (yeah)
I feel too cold to live, too young to die (yeah)
Will you walk the line, like it's there to choose (yeah)
Just forget the wit, it's the best to use

Oh, Lord
I said, "Oh, Lord"
I said, "Oh, Lord"

Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh, Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on these streets in the heart of the jungle (oh, Lord child)
Won't you follow me into the jungle

I lost my mind, in the city of lights (yeah)
In the backstreets buildings and the neon lights (yeah)
When I heard the thunder, I could feel the rain (yeah)
It's the same to me, just a different name

Oh, Lord
I said, "Oh, Lord"
I said, "Oh, Lord"

Won't you follow me into the jungle (yeah)
Ain't no god on my streets in the heart of the jungle (oh, Lord child)

Naked

I ain't no Ken and you ain't no Barbie
Ain't none of my friends have a perfect body
If we had it all, go, go
Baby, if we let it all go, go
Baby, we could break the mold, mold
Not afraid to show, I just wanna say

From my head to my toes
Feeling overexposed
I wanna be naked with you
All my faults, all your stars
Who I am, who you are
I wanna be, oh, naked with you, naked with you

No, we ain't no Brad and Angelina
Oh, we don't let that bother us either
If we let it all go, go
Maybe if we let it all go, go
Maybe we just let 'em all know, know
Not afraid to show, I just wanna say

From my head to my toes
Feeling overexposed
I wanna be naked with you
All my faults, all your stars
Who I am, who you are
I wanna be, oh, naked with you, naked with you

No more lies, no more hate
No more waiting in the wings
Take my hand, take this danger
I just wanna say

From my head to my toes
Feeling overexposed
I wanna be naked with you
All my faults, all your stars
Who I am, who you are
I wanna be, oh, naked with you, naked with you
