Playlist From Ashes To New

from ashes to new - breaking now

[Intro: Chris Musser]
I just don't care don't care anymore

[Verse 1: Chris Musser]
I just don't care anymore and I can't pretend
I haven't been here before and haven't seen the end
I sometimes hope for a cure I'm just lost within
I just don't care anymore why can't I win

[Pre Chorus: Matt Brandyberry]
Open my eyes and these lies
they breed and they feed off of me
I try to revive a design
but can't see a need to agree
I'd hide in my mind and rewind
the scene or I'd flee underneath
But time after time I still find
I bleed more for me to succeed

[Chorus: Chris Musser]
It's hard to care care care if I'm breaking now
every single thing I swear tries to take me down
It's hard to care care care if I make it out
Every single thought of despair tries to take me down

[Verse 2: Chris Musser]
I'm keeping myself alive to just live like this
and force myself to decide what's my life's purpose
I'm stuck in back of the line and behind the mix
still trying to find what is mine find where I fit

[Pre Chorus: Matt Brandyberry]
Open my eyes and these lies
they breed and they feed off of me
I try to revive a design
but can't see a need to agree
I'd hide in my mind and rewind
the scene or I'd flee underneath
But time after time I still find
I bleed more for me to succeed

[Chorus: Chris Musser]
It's hard to care care care if I'm breaking now
every single thing I swear tries to take me down
It's hard to care care care if I make it out
Every single thought of despair tries to take me down

[Bridge: Matt Brandyberry]
All the time it's trying to break me
every lie is trying to take me
now I find I'm dying to save me
but down inside I care a little less lately x4
(I just don't care don't care anymore anymore) x3

[Chorus: Chris Musser]
It's hard to care care care if I'm breaking now
every single thing I swear tries to take me down
It's hard to care care care if I make it out
Every single thought of despair tries to take me down

[Bridge: Matt Brandyberry]
All the time it's trying to break me
every lie is trying to take me
now I find I'm dying to save me
but down inside I care a little less lately
(I just don't care don't care anymore anymore) x2

from ashes to new - downfall

I'm broken and beaten down
I feel so defeated now
It's me against the world
I feel like I'm the one who's bleeding out

My minds so depleted now
Should I just be leaving now?
Can I restart it all?
Control Alt Delete it now

I'm tired of yesterday
Let's see what tomorrow brings
I'm trying my best to say
These words I keep swallowing

Demons keep following me
Screaming they're calling for me
No more free falling for me
I'll steal the time I'm borrowing

Dreams are dreamt broken
Worlds shattered and choking
And I'm stuck here hoping
There's something for me

We all fall down sometimes
And it makes it hard to believe
We can learn to somehow survive
No matter how much we bleed

We can make it (and now we know)
We can make it (so don't let go)
(Don't let go)

Every time I wake up
It's hard to believe I opened up my eyes
I try to stay up
But I keep on falling and I don't know why
Everything's fucked
And I can't keep living wearing this disguise
Can I change my luck or am I stuck in time until I die?

Dreams are dreamt broken
Worlds shattered and choking
And I'm stuck here hoping
There's something for me

We all fall down sometimes
And it makes it hard to believe
We can learn to somehow survive
No matter how much we bleed

We can make it (and now we know)
We can make it (so don't let go)

After it all
We are the ones who suffer the downfall
After it all (after it all)
We are the ones who suffer the downfall
After it all (After it all)
We are the ones who suffer

We all fall down sometimes
And it makes it hard to believe
We can learn to somehow survive
No matter how much we bleed

We can make it (and now we know)
We can make it (so don't let go)
(Don't let go)

from ashes to new - every second

I?m broken, I?m hoping
For a reason to keep on going
Doors open and closing
Everything seems like slow motion
I?ve chosen this moment
To stop my self-erosion
I?m focused on owning
Myself, my own opponent

But in this moment that is falling apart
I keep thinking
Is the path I chose where I should start?
I keep sinking

I?m dying every second I?m alive
Every second I?m alive
I?m trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that?s inside
I?m dying every second I?m alive
This life?s reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger

I won?t go quietly
Won?t let the past unwind me
I don?t know whom I see
Worth trying to put behind me

But in this moment that is falling apart
I keep thinking
Is the path I chose where I should start?
I keep sinking

I?m dying every second I?m alive
Every second I?m alive
I?m trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that?s inside
I?m dying every second I?m alive
This life?s reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger

Every second I?m alive
I?m getting closer to my grave
I try my best to just survive
Feels like I?m broken every day
I?m hoping that I?ll make it
I?m hoping but I?m flakey
I?m cold inside this basement
Time to try and fight the shaky
I?m shaking and I?m waiting
Still debating on which way to go
Swaying and I?m fading
No escaping, still afraid to know
Inside my thoughts are erasing
So I?m bracing for a weighted stone
The world is so much colder
So I may just have to change alone

I?m dying every second I?m alive
Every second I?m alive
I?m trying to feed the fire that inside me
The fire that?s inside
I?m dying every second I?m alive
This life?s reflection in my eye
It reminds me the scars made me stronger

from ashes to new - farther from home

I lay awake and look at the ceiling and wonder why
I'm so afraid to face all these feelings and want to die
I'm out of place and nothing's appealing to stay alive
Why try to face it when it's so easy to say goodbye

It's all unfolding, it's so controlling
It tries to pull me under, nothing's going right for me
This tension's growing, it tries to hold me
Hear me scream

I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go
I'm moving closer
Everything that I know is feeling farther from home
I'm never giving in,
This world I'm living in is losing color
I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go

I try to make the changes, it's so hard to sway my mind
There is no way to make it but to leave these scars behind
Within my thoughts are racing, I'm too far away at times
I drive myself insane, it's tearing me apart inside

It's all unfolding, it's so controlling
It tries to pull me under, nothing's going right for me
This tension's growing, it tries to hold me
Hear me scream

I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go
I'm moving closer
Everything that I know is feeling farther from home
I'm never giving in,
This world I'm living in is losing color
I'm taking over
With my back to the ropes, I'm never letting go

I take a deep breath down inside
I shake and try to breathe but I
Hate the way that I lived my life
And it seems
All the lies that I try to hide
Remind me of what I left behind
Unwinding thoughts inside my mind
Hear me scream
I'M SCREAMING OUT LOUD

It's all just weighing on me
It's all just weighing on me
I'm reaching out
I'm screaming out loud

from ashes to new - i will show you

from ashes to new - land of make believe

You stand there all alone and try to think of what I said
But this unfamiliar tongue just keeps on ringing in your head
Everything you've known is what I'm bringing to an end
The situation that you're in is you're preaching it instead
It's what it is, enough of this, the shit you talk is nothing
Keep on breaking what I love in this, and that is why it's coming
Is I'm jumping and confronting and you plan to stop with none of this
Now you see how fun it is to believe you're buried under it

You think you're special, you think I have to follow you
Just scratching, guessing I'm not the person you assumed
You think you're special, think I have to follow you
Now what you gonna do, when I come to split your world in two

You underestimated me
I'll be the one to haunt you in your dreams
And when the ashes rest you'll see
I'll have torn you from your land of make believe

I wish you had the courage and the heart to use your brain
Cause you're wicked on the surface, and you're partially insane
You think it serves no purpose and it's unfairly in vain
Your slippers ain't working and your hopes are far away
Now you're stuck here out of luck
You stand there thinking how the fuck
It's loud enough to sound you're nuts
Your house is spinning round the block
Now before this happened
I'm to show you don't you fuck the gun
And now you spun around because
You may be what the coward was

You think you're special, think I have to follow you
Just scratching, guessing I'm not the person you assumed
You think you're special, think I have to follow you
Now what you gonna do, when I come to split your world in two

You underestimated me
I'll be the one to haunt you in your dreams
And when the ashes rest you'll see
I'll have torn you from your land of make believe

Don't fall asleep
Cause you can't run from me

Don't fall asleep
Cause you can't run from me (You can't run from me)
I'm coming for you
I'm coming for you
Don't fall asleep
Love is not meant for me (It's not meant for me)
I'm coming for you
Yeah, I'm coming for you

You think you're special, think I have to follow you
Now what you gonna do, when I come to split your world in two

You underestimated me
I'll be the one to haunt you in your dreams
And when the ashes rest you'll see
I'll have torn you from your land of make believe

Don't fall asleep
Cause you can't run from me (You can't run from me)
I'm coming for you
Yeah, I'm coming for you

from ashes to new - lost and alone

All around the skies are falling down upon me
I'm trapped inside this wake of nothing
Once what was beautiful is now a disease
I cant believe these walls were something

Burning down over me
I can't make my way through the debris
I can't make it no
I try my hardest to see
I cant find my way on the streets
I cant make it home

Lost and alone in this world with no hope
Trying not to let go but there's nothing to hold

Everyday it seems we're evolving
Into a world that's not there for you
Everything we were is now dissolving
Into this apathetic life that we choose

Burning down over me
I can't make my way through the debris
I can't make it no
I try my hardest to see
I cant find my way on the streets
I cant make it home

Lost and alone in this world with no hope
Trying not to let go but there's nothing to hold

Nowhere to go nothing to hold
Everything around me starts to crumble
Nowhere to go nothing to hold
Someone save me

SAVE ME THIS NOTHING IS DROWNING ME
NOTHING CAN SAVE ME ITS DROWNING ME AGAIN

I'm bleeding before I lose
But this nightmare just began

Lost and alone in this world with no hope
I'm trying not to let go but there's nothing nothing
Lost and alone in this world with no hope
I'm trying not to let go and there's nothing to hold
Lost and alone in this world with no hope
I'm trying not to let go and there's nothing nothing

SAVE ME THIS NOTHING IS DROWNING ME
NOTHING CAN SAVE ME ITS DROWNING ME

from ashes to new - my fight

Get up, Get up, Get up,
I'ma show you everything I've got inside
I Won't Give up, Give up,
Never backing down this is my fight

How do you live when every finger's pointing in your face
How do you give your heart to something only you embrace
How do you put your mind to something that you love
When you were growing up everybody told you that you weren't good enough
Good enough would work for me
Instead of love you hurt me deep
Broke my trust and watched me bleed
Ignored my pleas and squashed my dreams
Everything hiding underneath is coming out for you to see
The screams kept hidden down beneath
A broken are spirit finally free

Get up, Get up, Get up,
I'ma show you everything I've got inside
I Won't Give up, Give up,
Never backing down this is my fight

Everything we do in life has got to be for something
I won't go down without a fight no I won't die for nothing
You held me under too long I see a coming end
Take back your hand, your not my friend, to me your fucking dead.
All the things you did and do showed me the colors inside you,
I now know all your hidden truths, if I were you shit I'd lie to
It's my turn now, I'll burn you down, nowhere to run and hide for you
It's tried and true, and I'll get through I'll watch your spirit die in you.

Get up, Get up, Get up,
I'ma show you everything I've got inside
I Won't Give up, Give up,
Never backing down this is my fight
Every word you said, had you thinking in your head, you'd leave me here for dead,
But I'm Alive
Get up, Get up, Get up,
I'ma show you everything I've got inside

You brought me down, in ways I can't imagine
you made me believe, IT'S TRUE
(It's what I've got inside, this is my fight)

I hate the way you drag me down
I'm not afraid cuz this ends now

Get up, Get up, Get up,
I'ma show you everything I've got inside
I Won't Give up, Give up,
Never backing down this is my fight
Every word you said, had you thinking in your head, you'd leave me here for dead,
But I'm Alive
Get up, Get up, Get up,
I'ma show you everything I've got inside

from ashes to new - same old story

Verse 1:
It's stuck on repeat
Making me breathe
Ever so deeply inside
Am I sleeping
I've tried screaming
Nothing can keep me alive
It seems easy
Make believing
Leaving these feelings behind
It's deceiving
Guaranteeing
Nothing is seemingly right

Pre Chorus:
Can't look away
Can't bare to watch but want to see
I can't escape
This flood that I jumped in
Without a trace
I vanish from the air I breathe
Last gasp I take
I thought nothing was something

Chorus:
The best thing to ever happen to me
Has now become the worst thing
It's still the same old story, it's still the same old story

Verse 2:
It still replays
All of these days
All of these ways
That it died
Paths that we made
Left to decay
All from betrayal and pride
Feels like D-Day
When we stay
Like cars on freeways that collide
Let's be safe
And not retrace
Mistakes that we made throughout time

Bridge:
If I make it out alive
I'll make it my last goodbye
Outro:
Still the same old same old
Still the same old story

from ashes to new - shadows

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name

Is it hard to take a breath with my name in your mouth
Is it hard to digest that I made it out
You hate me now, you betrayed me now
And you blame me now, cuz you're breaking down
Who would you impress if you take me out?
There's nothing, no one left, it's a daydream now
You're spacing out, no awaking now
No erasing how you played me down

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name
You and your shadow just blasting my name

I thought by now you would've learned to be discreet
You sing my name, like a bird every time you tweet
I top your feed, but it's not for me
You keep dropping me, like my stock decreased
You should probably be concerned that you dot your T's
Everything's backwards like you stopped on green
Like a clot you bleed, like a thought you see
Like we fought the free, like you're stopping me

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name
You and your shadow just blasting my name

You'll see your shadow
You'll see your shadow
You should've known, you'd be there all alone
You'll see your shadow
You're on your own (where'd everybody go), wait for tomorrow
You'll see your shadow
You should've known (you'd be there all alone), wait for tomorrow
(You'll see your shadow)

Some people will never change
Running your mouth all the same
You and your shadow just blasting my name
I hear the words that you say
I see the games that you play
You and your shadow just blasting my name
You and your shadow just blasting my name
Blasting my name

from ashes to new - stay this way

Everything inside of me
is what it is, it?s not changing
Not for you, for you
To myself I stay true
(So Try)
To understand it when I tell you that I want you out
(Cuz I?ve)
Been reprimanded for the last time so just shut your mouth
Bite your tongue cuz I?ve had enough
Your speaking under your breathe too much, shut up!

It?s my life it?s my fate
It doesn?t matter what you say
Cuz it never was your place
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!
It?s my life it?s my fate
It doesn?t matter what you say
Cuz it never was your place
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!

I live my life the way I choose
So walk away before I lose
My mind, it?s time, for you to say goodbye
(Over)
Over and over you try to force my hand and make me change
(Older)
As I get older I understand it more and hate these games
You put me through
And now I?ll never lose
And now the strides I take will guide me straight
Away from fake ass punks like you

It?s my life it?s my fate
It doesn?t matter what you say
Cuz it never was your place
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!
It?s my life it?s my fate
It doesn?t matter what you say
Cuz it never was your place
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!

It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!

Let me be, just let me breathe
Guaranteed you can?t fix me
Everything that?s underneath and inside me
Is not changing
Let me be, just let me breathe
Cuz everything that?s underneath
Everything that?s underneath is

NEVER CHANGING
Everything that?s underneath is
NEVER CHANGING

Everything inside of me
is what it is, it?s not changing
Not for you, for you

It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!

It?s my life it?s my fate
It doesn?t matter what you say
Cuz it never was your place
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!
It?s my life it?s my fate
It doesn?t matter what you say
Cuz it never was your place
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!

(Alive, inside)
It?s my life it?s my fate (MY FATE!)
It doesn?t matter what you say (YOU SAY!)
(My life, Revived)
Cuz it never was your place (YOUR PLACE!)
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!
It?s my life it?s my fate (MY FATE!)
It doesn?t matter what you say (MY FATE!)
Cuz it never was your place (MY FATE!)
It?s never gonna change it is the same and I?ma stay this way!

from ashes to new - the last time

You never thought I'd follow through
So here's a song for all of you
Reaction for attacking me and acting like I'm small to you
This is what you call the truth
It chews you up and swallows you
A fraction of the wrath in me unraveling for all to view
I'm glad you always hated me
Cuz that's what made me chase the dream
And now I'm here, so close, so near, and you're so far away to me
This is what you made me be
You'll always be the same to me
So full of fear, afraid to hear, me spit the truth so blatantly

You brought me down for the last time
It's the last time I shut my mouth
I'm screaming out from the inside
For the first time
It's the last time you bring me down

It's funny that you think we're friends
It's maybe time to think again
The shit you said, you wished me dead, instead of trying to make amends
Now it's finally sinking in
That I'm the one who's finishing
So don't pretend to take offense, you earned it every single cent
Almost thought that you were right
I almost thought I'd lose the fight
And came undone, you almost won, you almost conquered me with spite
You never saw it through the light
It blinded you it skewed your sight
The shit you talked, and what you thought, and now it fucking ends tonight

You brought me down for the last time
It's the last time I shut my mouth
I'm screaming out from the inside
For the first time
It's the last time you bring me down

[Deuce:]
Quiet as a mouse was always shutting my mouth
Quiet in the beginning till I figured it out
Look at me now straight spitting without
All these fake ass mother fuckers holding me down
You thought I had a nervous breakdown and was playing around
Your whole shit went underground soon as I popped the fuck out
Soon as I stepped on the scene and started knocking 'em out
Stomping'em out just for trying to block my ass out
What the fuck you talking about rocking a crowd
This is rock not pop look who's popular now
Bitch please stop talking me down
The only thing that you were ever good at was mocking me
How I couldn't see how you were stopping me
You brought me down

You brought me down for the last time
It's the last time I shut my mouth
I'm screaming out from the inside
For the first time
It's the last time you bring me down

from ashes to new - through it all

There?s not a day that passes by
The pain has not amassed inside
It?s breaking me down to the ground
It?s like I crashed and died
It?s hard to leave your past behind
Especially when you?re last in line
And half the time it acts like vines
And wraps inside my fragile mind
Hiding in plain view it seems
The same old shit I choose between
Taking who I used to be
And keep it subdued beneath
Close to dead and losing me
You took a chance and you believed
So did I, I let you lead
And grabbed the line you threw to me

You saved me, you made me
And through it all you changed me forever
You love me, you hate me
And through it all you changed me forever

You?ve given me a chance to change
Helped me in ways I can?t explain
I?ll never understand the way
You took my hand with no dismay
Now I?m who I am today
And that?s the man I plan to stay
But can?t escape, I can?t evade
You stranded me and ran away
Why?d you do it why?d you leave
Why?d you help me find my feet
Why?d you guide me blindingly
Then turn and say goodbye to me
All this time I tried to be
The person you applied to me
This lie you feed that I?d succeed
Is why I?m me, a dying breed

You saved me, you made me
And through it all you changed me forever
You love me, you hate me
And through it all you changed me forever

Through it all you changed me
I?m not the same me
For better or for worse this person that you made me
Through it all you changed me
I?m not the same me
For better or for worse you changed me forever

It?s killing me down deep within
It makes me strain to breath again
All this pain I keep it in
If it?s the end where?d we begin
It?s so hard to comprehend
Where we are is where we end
Let?s make believe let?s just pretend
You don?t hate me and want me dead
What you said stays in my head
An unrelenting discontent
It torments me to no extent
Entrenches me just like cement
It makes no sense what your intent
Bled for me then fled instead
You never meant to be content
Fuck the words let?s just be friends

You saved me, you made me
And through it all you changed me forever
You love me, you hate me
And through it all you changed me forever

Through it all you changed me
I?m not the same me
For better or for worse this person that you made me
Through it all you changed me
I?m not the same me
For better or for worse you changed me forever

Whoa...

Through it all you changed me
I?m not the same me
For better or for worse this person that you made me
Through it all you changed me
I?m not the same me
For better or for worse you changed me forever

from ashes to new - who's laughing now

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now

I remember it all when you used to laugh loud
Back to the wall I was afraid to act out
Feeling so small I was scared and trapped, now
I'm standing up tall and don't plan to back down

Every breath I breathed I had to breath deep
And every dream I've dreamed was promising me
I'd be nothing but empty on the verge of defeat
So stop pretending you believed in these dreams

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
(but it's my turn now)
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now
(that it's turned around)

I can still see the faces like it's today
They're what it took
To make this life, it's too late
To take back all the hatred
And fights that you've made
Nothing can erase this despite what you say

Put a smile on my face the taste of what you gave
Made me hate your way of life
So I knew I'd never change
Never sway from my direction
Kept my mind inside the game
No more stressing just confessing
I'm laughing now you're in your place

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
(but it's my turn now)
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now
(that it's turned around)

Now that it's over (it's over, it's over)
I think it's time that you get a taste
And now that it's over (and now it's finally over)
I'm sitting here with a smile on my face

(laughing) it's funny how it is
I thought I never had a chance
(I'm laughing) you put your money on this shit
And now I made you fold your hand
(laughing) it's funny how it is
I thought I never had a chance
(I'm laughing) you put your money on this shit
And now I made you fold your hand
So look who's laughing now
A smile's worth a hundred grand

Look at me now, laughing now, you had me down
(but it's my turn now)
Look at me now, laughing now, happy now
(that it's turned around)

(laughing)
Now that it's over (it's over, it's over)
(I'm laughing)
Look at me now (that it's turned around)

(laughing)
And now that it's over (and now it's finally over)
(I'm laughing)
I'm laughing now (I turned around)
