Sleeping With Sirens - How It Feels to Be Lost Album Lyrics

Leave It All Behind

When you look at my life
Tell me what do you see?
I'm only human
So don't expect too much from me

I lost my faith, what have I become?
I don't think I can be safe from what I'm running from

Will you remember me if I
Were to fall into the sky?
And what will they think of me
If I leave it all behind?
When I leave it all behind

Would you be so surprised
If I gave up tonight?
I'm barely breathing
I wanna kill the pain I feel inside

But I won't quit for the people I love
So I'll say I'm fine until the day I f*ckin' see the light

Will you remember me if I
Were to fall into the sky?
And what will they think of me
If I leave it all behind?
When I leave it all behind

If you feel like you are nothing
If you feel like letting go
I'll be your hope when you are hopeless
Together we are not alone

You're not alone!

Will you remember me if I
Were to fall into the sky?
(Fall into the sky)
And what will they think of me
(Think of me)
If I leave it all behind?
When I leave it all behind
Yeah

Never Enough

(feat. Benji Madden)

It's time to wake up, your life has begun
But if I had my own way, I'd shoot down the sun
Cause I don't f*ck with anyone, I can't be fake like everyone
So tell me what does it take? Give me the secret
If I told you the truth would you believe it?
Am I the only one to see the monster I've become?

You don't know what you got 'til it's gone
Never knowing why until it's all done
There must be something more to believe
But it's never enough, never enough for me

It's time to get up, I've been down for so long
Get me out of my head, I can't do this alone
Feels like the walls are closing in
I can't keep going on like this
How did I end up this way? Give me a reason
Give me something to take to stop the bleeding
Am I the only one to see the monster I've become?

You don't know what you got 'til it's gone
Never knowing why until it's all done
There must be something more to believe
But it's never enough, never enough for me

If we could rule the world how would we make it?
The best is yet to come, if we can face it
We're always on our own, don't you see?
It was never enough, never enough for me
Never enough, never enough for me

Maybe the pain was here just to push me forward
If I could look inside and somehow find the courage
I can't keep running away to live these f*cked up fantasies
Now I'm turned around, I'm looking in the mirror
Life is funny and the pain will make it clearer
So I'm ripping out my heart for everyone to see

You don't know what you got 'til it's gone
Never knowing why until it's all done
There must be something more to believe
But it's never enough, never enough for me

If we could rule the world how would we make it?
The best is yet to come, if we can face it
We're always on our own, don't you see?
It was never enough, never enough for me

How It Feels To Be Lost

Life is walking on a tightrope
With nothing but a blindfold
It's a long way, it's a long way down
I'm, yeah, I'm a little crazy
But can you really blame me?
It's a long way, it's a long way down

For every step that I take, I take two steps back
It's like a punch to the face, it's like a knife right in the...

It's like a knife right in the back, like a bullet to the head
Why can't I understand? The blood is on my hands
Now I'm standing on the edge with nowhere to go (To go)
This is how it feels, this is how it feels
How it feels to be lost, lost

I've been stranded in an ocean
Treading water but it's hopeless, hopeless
It's a long way, it's a long way down
Why am I always on the brink of
Losing it all, am I just wasting my time?
It's a long way, it's a long way down

For every step that I take, I take two steps back
It's like a punch to the face

It's like a knife right in the back, like a bullet to the head
Why can't I understand? The blood is on my hands
Now I'm standing on the edge with nowhere to go (To go)
This is how it feels, this is how it feels
How it feels to be lost, lost, lost

And it's a long way down (It's a long way down)
And it's a long way down

Why do I do this to myself?
Why do I put myself through hell?
And will I ever understand?
The blood is on my hands!

(Knife right in the, knife right in the...)

It's like a knife right in the back, like a bullet to the head
Why can't I understand? The blood is on my hands
Now I'm standing on the edge with nowhere to go (To go)
This is how it feels, this is how it feels
How it feels to be lost, lost
How it feels to be lost

Agree to Disagree

Come on!

Maybe I should care a little more about what everybody thinks
But I just don't have the time for nobody but me
The mood I'm in keeps changing like the weather
So you can keep the sun 'cause I like the night time better

You think you're better than me
You don't like what you see
I think it's best we agree to disagree
I'm doing fine by myself
I never asked for your help
I think it's best we agree to disagree

I wear my heart on my sleeve like a worn out sweater
But with a needle and some thread I've been keeping it together
Life's too short to be worried 'bout whatever
So you keep shining in the sun but I like the night time better
You...

You think you're better than me
You don't like what you see
I think it's best we agree to disagree
I'm doing fine by myself
I never asked for your help
I think it's best we agree to disagree

You think I'm wrong
(You think I'm wrong)
It doesn't make you right
(It doesn't make you right)
And now there's no crossing the line
Stay on your own side

You think you're better than me
You don't like what you see
I think it's best we agree to disagree
I'm doing fine by myself
I never asked for your help
I think it's best we agree to disagree
Agree to disagree
Agree to disagree

Ghost

He fades away
And she is barely holding on by a string
He's been gone since yesterday
And she keeps waiting
But she knows that he won't change
"'Til death" they said
Now they're just dying to find a way

Are we just ghosts out in the night?
Are we just waiting for a light that doesn't shine
Are we just faking or is this real?
'Cause I don't know how to feel
Are we just ghosts now you and I?
Think it's time to say goodbye

She's giving up
Been holding on for way too long
She's had enough
He's coming home again
But it's too late 'cause she won't stay with him

Are we just ghosts out in the night?
Are we just waiting for a light that doesn't shine
Are we just faking or is this real?
'Cause I don't know how to feel
Are we just ghosts now you and I?
Think it's time to say goodbye

Who's wrong, who's right, it's not so black and white
We make excuses, but we'll never win this fight
Who's wrong, who's right, it's not so black and white
We make excuses, but we'll never win this fight
Who's wrong, who's right, it's not so black and white
We make excuses, but we'll never win this, never win this fight

Are we just ghosts out in the night?
Are we just waiting for a light that doesn't shine
Are we just faking or is this real?
'Cause I don't know how to feel
Are we just ghosts now you and I?
Think it's time to say goodbye
Think it's time to say goodbye

Bloodlines

What's it like to be all alone
All by yourself in a broken home
Try not to be like mom and dad
Realize you're just f*cked like them
Are we bound to lose?
Maybe we just don't get to choose
Is it in our DNA?
Was I just born this way?

I am not the one
I'm just another bastard son
A bastard son
No matter what I do
You will never ever be like me
And I will never be like you

Why do I try to save everyone I meet?
Is it because they are just like me
Same tracks, wrong side of the street
Not typical in the way that we speak
When you always expect to lose
You don't give a f*ck what they think of you
It's written in our DNA
Are we just born this way?

I am not the one
I'm just another bastard son
A bastard son
No matter what I do
You will never ever be like me
And I will never be like you

What have we become?
Why do we sacrifice the ones we love?
Our daughters, our sons!
No matter what I do
You will never ever be like me
And I will never be like you

You can't change what you were born into
Don't let it bury you
You can't change what you were born into
Don't let it, don't let it bury you
You can't change what you were born into
Don't let it bury you
You can't change what you were born into
Don't let it, don't let it bury you

I am not the one
I'm just another bastard son
A bastard son
No matter what I do
You will never ever be like me
And I will never be like you

What have we become?
Why do we sacrifice the ones we love?
Our daughters, our sons!
No matter what I do
You will never ever be like me
And I will never be like you

Break Me Down

You won't break me down
I'm not afraid
To try and feel something that's real
I'm not ashamed
You won't break me down

The last two years of my life are so filled with regret
Try to fool myself, but I'll never forget
The time I lost, the pain I've found
But when it's time to fight, you need to stand your ground

Smoke in my lungs
There's a fire in my heart (Fire in my heart)
And when it's all said and done
You won't break me

You won't break me down
I'm not afraid
To try and feel something that's real
I'm not ashamed
You won't break me
When all hope is gone
I'm stronger than I've been before
I'm not afraid
You won't break me down

All the drugs and the fame don't matter at all
So I swim in the bottle, it makes me feel small
To drown out my demons, I still hear them call
On and on and on, my back's against the wall

I'm just being honest
I'm trying my best (I'm trying my best)
And when it's all said and done
You won't break me

You won't break me down
I'm not afraid
To try and feel something that's real
I'm not ashamed
You won't break me
When all hope is gone
I'm stronger than I've been before
I'm not afraid
You won't break me down

Down!

There's smoke in my lungs
There's a fire in my heart
And when it's all said and done
You won't break me
You won't break me down!
Down!
You won't break me down!

You won't break me down
I'm not afraid
To try and feel something that's real
I'm not ashamed
You won't break me
When all hope is gone
I'm stronger than I've been before
I'm not afraid
You won't break me down

Yeah!

Another Nightmare

I was thinking 'bout you when I was falling asleep
(When I was falling asleep, when I was falling asleep)
I was thinking 'bout how you always were there, there for me
(There for me, there for me)
Nobody's perfect, there's no excuse
I've been such a f*cking nightmare to you
But I promise if you let me in (Let me in, let me in)
I will never ever hurt you again

Keep holding on
(On on, on on)
Keep holding on
(On on, on on)
I promise if you let me in
I will never ever hurt you again
Keep holding on
God I'm such a f*cking nightmare

I was looking for you last night in my dreams
(Last night in my dream, last night in my dreams)
I was running to you to save me from these terrible things
(These terrible things, these terrible things)
Nobody's perfect, it's just the truth
And I've been such a f*cking nightmare to you
But I promise if you let me in (Promise if you let me in)
I swear I'll never ever lose you again

Keep holding on
(On on, on on)
Keep holding on
(On on, on on)
I promise if you let me in
I will never ever lose you again
Keep holding on
God I'm such a f*cking nightmare

(Nightmare!)

Keep holding on
(On on, on on)
Keep holding on
(On on, on on)
Nobody's perfect, it's just the truth
And I've been such a f*cking nightmare to you
Holding on
(On, on)
Such a f*cking nightmare

Nightmare
Nightmare

PS Missing You

I'm missing you, I'm missing you...

I see myself in the broken glass
Shattered pieces falling down again, down again
I'm breaking down again, down again, yeah
I've seen too much, I know myself
And I've been too f*cked up to ask for help
But do you even care?
Is there anybody out there?

It's coming 'round, coming 'round, coming 'round again

Cause I feel so alone
Screaming at nothing
I feel so alone
Searching for something
Now I'm breaking down
And you're not around
I get lost in the sound
And I feel so alone
And you can't save me!

I hate myself for the things I've done
So hopeless feeling so down again, down again
It's breaking me down again, down again
Take what's left, take me away
Cause I've been too f*cked up, to try to change
But do you even care?
Is there anybody out there?

Cause I feel so alone
Screaming at nothing
I feel so alone
Searching for something
Now I'm breaking down
And you're not around
I get lost in the sound
And I feel so alone
And you can't save me!

Don't look me right in the eye
Don't tell me this is goodbye
Cause I'm missing you, I'm missing you
Don't look me right in the eye
Don't tell me that this is goodbye
Cause I'm missing you, I'm missing you

Cause I feel so alone
Screaming at nothing
I feel so alone
Searching for something
Now I'm breaking down
And you're not around
I get lost in the sound
And I feel so alone
And you can't save me!

Medicine (Devil in My Head)

I've been up all night staring at the ceiling
Choking on the medicine that I keep drinking
Round and round, up and down, round and round, up and down
People talking in my ear, can't hear what they're saying
Swimming in the fire, the walls keep spinning
Round and round, up and down, round and round, up and down

I keep lying to myself, now it's too late
The monster's inside, the monster is me
I keep lying to myself, now it's too late
The monster's inside, the monster is me

The devil's living in my head, I'm scared to death
I haven't been myself lately
If I were you, I wouldn't get too close
Cause I don't know what I'd do if you pushed me

Start another fight, make a fist keep swinging
Alone in the dark, what the hell was I thinking?
Round and round, up and down
Round and round, up and down
I'm upside down, god I hate the feeling
Lying on the floor, out the door she's leaving
Round and round, up and down
Round and round, up and down

I keep lying to myself, now it's too late
The monster's inside, the monster is me
I keep lying to myself, now it's too late
The monster's inside, the monster is me

The devil's living in my head, I'm scared to death
I haven't been myself lately
If I were you, I wouldn't get too close
Cause I don't know what I'd do if you pushed me

Someone save me now
I haven't been myself lately
I keep falling down
So don't push me, don't push me, don't push me

(Start another fight, make a fist keep swinging, make a fist keep sw...)

The devil's living in my head, I'm scared to death
I haven't been myself lately
If I were you, I wouldn't get too close
So don't push me, don't push me, don't push me!

The devil's living in my head, I'm scared to death
I haven't been myself lately
If I were you, I wouldn't get too close
Cause I don't know what I'd do if you pushed me

Someone save me now
I haven't been myself lately
I keep falling down
So don't push me, don't push me, don't push me

The devil's living in my head, my head
I don't know what I'd do if you pushed me
Devil's living in my head
I don't know what I'd do if you pushed me
Do if you pushed me, do if you pushed me...

Dying to Believe

I'm a sucker, don't count on me
I'm f*cked up, yeah, to some degree
But I'm thinking you, you're just like me
I'm thinking you, you're just like me
You're a disaster, you're in another fight
You wish that you could get it right
We're hanging on a tightrope dream
We lose ourselves in the in-between

Slow down, don't get low now
Cause we can't, no we won't
Take a chance if we don't know how

So let go, come on, let's run away
We both know we're better than they say

This won't be the first time, won't be the last time
Won't be the only time it's on our minds, yeah
We're all just trying to be free, I'm dying to believe

There's a shadow on the walls today
A long drive home to an early grave
It doesn't have to be this way
It shouldn't have to be this way

Slow down, don't let go now
Cause we can't, no we won't
Take a chance if we don't know how

So let go, come on, let's run away
We both know we're better than they say

This won't be the first time, won't be the last time
Won't be the only time it's on our minds, yeah
We're all just trying to be free, I'm dying to believe

I'm holding on so tight, but I'm still, I'm still slipping away
I'm holding on so tight, but I'm still, I'm still slipping away

So let go, come on, let's run away
We both know we're better than they say

This won't be the first time, won't be the last time
Won't be the only time it's on our minds
This won't be the first time, won't be the last time
Won't be the only time it's on our minds
This won't be the first time, won't be the last time
Won't be the only time it's on our minds, yeah
We're all just trying to be free, I'm dying to believe

Oh oh, oh oh
I'm dying to believe
Oh oh, oh oh
I'm dying to believe
