Just Found Heaven lyrics - Daughtry

Gone all my life
Worried about my soul
Brimstone and fire, stories I've been told
Then I saw grace, right before my eyes
I should break through those gates, and fall from the sky

I hate to let you down, hate to let you down, no
Hate to say it now, hate to say it now
But

I don't really care where I go when I die
Cause I just found heaven
You can tell the devil that's he's wasting his time though
Cause I just found heaven
Singin' Halle, Halle, Halle, Halle, Hallelujah
Singin' Halle, Halle, Halle, Halle, Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Sins wash away
Dark tuns to light
Your body is a temple so take me inside, oh
I feel no pain, pleasures all mine
You give me a taste of eternal life, oh

I hate to let you down, hate to let you down, no
Hate to say it now, hate to say it now
But

I don't really care where I go when I die
Cause I just found heaven
You can tell the devil that's he's wasting his time though
Cause I just found heaven
Singin' Halle, Halle, Halle, Halle, Hallelujah
Singin' Halle, Halle, Halle, Halle, Hallelujah
Hallelujah

(Hate to let you down, hate to let you down, no)
(Hate to let you down, hate to let you down, no)

I don't really care where I go when I die
You can tell the devil that's he's wasting his time
Oh, I don't really care where I go when I die
Cause I just found heaven
You can tell the devil that's he's wasting his time though
Cause I just found heaven
Singin' Halle, Halle, Halle, Halle, Hallelujah
Singin' Halle, Halle, Halle, Halle, Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Oh, hallelujah
Cause I just found heaven, hallelujah
(Oh, hate to let you down, hate to let you down, no)
Hallelujah
(Hate to let you down, hate to let you down, yeah)
Hallelujah

Backbone lyrics - Daughtry

When you're hurting deep down
When you're feelin' like you're never gonna dig your way out
Never gonna dig your way out
Keep pushing up the river
Keep mining for the silver
'Til you've struck gold
Gotta weather the storm

'Cause it can't rain forever, no
I'm telling you

We all fall on hard times, you know
Each day is a hard climb, you know
Some days your body has to carry on
So you gotta show a little backbone
You know, you know, you know
You gotta show a little backbone

These troubles, so real
We're all facing temptations
And our own fears
Year after year

But it can't rain forever, no
I'm telling you

We all fall on hard times, you know
Each day is a hard climb, you know
Some days your body has to carry on
So you gotta show a little backbone
You know, you know, you know
You gotta show a little backbone
(You gotta show a little backbone)
You know (you gotta show a little backbone)
You gotta show a little backbone

Are you strong enough, to get back up?
When the chains hold you to the ground
So let's break 'em down, yeah, uh
Let's break 'em down
Let's break 'em down
Whoa, I'm telling you...

We all fall on hard times, you know
Each day is a hard climb, you know
Some days your body has to carry on
So you gotta show a little
We all fall on hard times, yeah
Each day is a high climb, you know
We all fall on hard times, you know
(So you gotta show a little backbone)

We all fall on hard times, yeah
You know each day is a high climb, you know
We all fall on hard times
Each day is a high climb, you know
So you gotta show a little backbone

Deep End lyrics - Daughtry

I'm underwater and I'm on fire
There's nothing wilder than my heart
Just let the current set in emotion
Then nothing can keep us apart

We're all swimming into the light
I want you by my side
And I'm right here waiting for you
Right here waiting for you
We're all living on borrowed time
I've been holding my breath all night
Waiting for you

I'm diving into the deep end
And I'm not scared, I'm not scared
And I'm in way over my head
And I'm not scared, I'm not scared, no

I am an island, you are an ocean
I wanna float here in your arms
High as a mountain, deep in devotion
There's nothing wilder than your heart

We're all swimming into the light
I want you by my side
And I'm right here waiting for you
Right here waiting for you
We're all living on borrowed time
I've been holding my breath all night
Waiting for you

And now I'm diving into the deep end
And I'm not scared, I'm not scared
And I'm in way over my head
And I'm not scared, I'm not scared, no

I'd follow you straight to the bottom
Not afraid, hell or high water
I wanna dive into you
I'd follow you straight to the bottom
Not afraid, hell or high water
I wanna dive into you

I'm underwater
And I'm on fire

And now I'm diving into the deep end
And I'm not scared, I'm not scared
And I'm in way over my head
And I'm not scared, I'm not scared, no

I'd follow you straight to the bottom
Not afraid, hell or high water
I wanna dive into you
I'd follow you straight to the bottom
Not afraid, hell or high water
I wanna dive into you

As You Are lyrics - Daughtry

You're feeling isolate, and all kinds frustrate
But I love you as you are, love you as you are, yeah
And don't worry about the haters
It don't fit in those boxes they create
And it's tearing you apart, it's tearing you apart, yeah

And when you build those walls to keep you safe
It's like a prison you can't escape
You tear them down, you just might hear me say

I love you as you are
I love you as you are
And when the whole damn world don't know what they got 'til it's gone
I love you
I love you as you are
I love you as you are
And when the whole damn world don't know what they got 'til it's gone
I love you
I love you as you are

You can come out of the shadows
They're only scared of what they don't know
But I love you as you are, love you as you are, yeah
Yeah, you waged this war within yourself
Wasting time dying in a shell
They don't define you, just know they never will

I love you as you are
I love you as you are
And when the whole damn world don't know what they got 'til it's gone
I love you
I love you as you are
I love you as you are
And when the whole damn world don't know what they got 'til it's gone
I love you
I love you as you are, yeah
I love you as you are

You're feeling isolate, and all kinds frustrate
But I love you as you are, love you as you are, yeah

I love you as you are
I love you as you are
And when the whole damn world don't know what they got 'til it's gone
I love you
I love you as you are
When the whole damn world don't know what they got 'til it's gone, 'til it's gone, 'til it's gone
I love you as you are, yeah
I love you as you are, yeah
When the whole damn world don't know what they got 'til it's gone
I love you as you are

Death Of Me lyrics - Daughtry

Like a scream inside, the one you just can't hide
Sounds so deafening, you can't hear yourself think
As real as real can get, keeping my heart in check
From feeling anything, but my own apathy
Again, again

It's creeping up on me
Making it harder to breathe

We're all under pressure
Can't stand the weather
For the worst and not for the better
Please, this ain't the way to live
Something's got to give
We forgive but don't forget it, no
Another day, another battle
We all have a cage to rattle
This just might be the death of me
Might be the death of me

It's reached a fever pitch
I'm living proof of it
I find it hard to cope, without a thread of hope
Blood is thicker than water
But love is even stronger
Hold out a little longer
Until we found ourselves
Again, again

It's creeping up on me
Making it harder to breathe

We're all under pressure
Can't stand the weather
For the worst and not for the better
Please, this ain't the way to live
Something's got to give
We forgive but don't forget it, no
Another day, another battle
We all have a cage to rattle
This just might be the death of me
Might be the death of me
Another day, another battle
We all have a cage to rattle
This just might be the death of me
Might be the death of me

Like a scream inside, the one you just can't hide
Sounds so deafening, you can't hear yourself think
As real as real can get, keeping my heart in check
From feeling anything
Making it harder to breathe

We're all under pressure
Can't stand the weather
For the worst and not for the better
Please, this ain't the way to live
Something's got to give
We forgive but don't forget it, no
Another day, another battle
We all have a cage to rattle
This just might be the death of me
Might be the death of me
Another day, another battle
We all have a cage to rattle
This just might be
Yeah, this might be the death of me

Bad Habits lyrics - Daughtry

Let's smoke
Smoke a cigarette in bed together, in bed together
Just a metaphor
For all the ways that we see each other, we see each other
I keep on pulling you in, holding my breath
Long as I can, 'til I need to exhale
And it can't be good for you
No, it can't be good

We ain't gotta go home, we could just stay here and kick it
Got a lot to learn, but I don't want to admit it
Sorry to put you down, I'm up on us right now, let's hit it
Just trying to kick it like, let's kick it like
My bad, my bad, bad habits, yeah
My bad, my bad, bad habits

Let's call
So let's call it what it is and have another, have another
Against the wall
And now you got my mind in the gutter, in the gutter
I keep on drinking you down, cooling my thirst
Causing a scene and I'm slurring my words
And it can't be good for you
No, it can't be good

We ain't gotta go home, we could just stay here and kick it
Got a lot to learn, but I don't want to admit it
Sorry to put you down, I'm up on us right now, let's hit it
Just trying to kick it like, let's kick it like
My bad, my bad, bad habits, yeah
My bad, my bad, bad habits
My bad, bad habits, yeah

I don't wanna go home, no
I just wanna stay here
I just wanna stay here and kick it

We ain't gotta go home, we could just stay here and kick it
Got a lot to learn, but I don't want to admit it
Sorry to put you down, I'm up on us right now, let's hit it
Just trying to kick it like, let's kick it like
My bad, my bad, bad habits, yeah
My bad, my bad, bad habits

Let's smoke
Let's call it what it is and have another
(My bad, my bad, bad habits, yeah)
And have another
(My bad, my bad, bad habits)

Back In Time lyrics - Daughtry

Whoa, whoa, going back in time
Whoa, whoa, going back in time

You knew how to start a fire, didn't need gasoline
Never took no time at all to get me on my knees
The fruit just seemed to fall, never had to shake no tree
The door was always open and we didn't need a key

Whoa, whoa

Take me back to those days of gold
We were young and said we'd never get old
No oh, no oh
Take me back to just me and you
Doing things that Momma said don't do
No oh, no oh
Take me back in time, take me back in time

Didn't matter where I went, everything's anything goes
And time and time we'll cross the line
And watch that bomb explode

Whoa, whoa
There it goes
There it goes

Take me back to those days of gold
We were young and said we'd never get old
No oh, no oh
Take me back to just me and you
Doing things that Momma said don't do
No oh, no oh
Take me back in time
Take me back in time
Take me back in time
Take me back in time

Whoa, whoa, going back in time
Whoa, whoa, going back in time

Take me back to those days of gold
We were young and said we'd never get old
No oh, no oh
Take me back to just me and you
Doing things that Momma said don't do
No oh, no oh

Take me back in time
Take me back in time
Take me back in time
Take me back to those days of gold
We were young and said we'd never get old
Take me back in time
Take me back in time
Take me back to just me and you
Doing things that Momma said don't do
Take me back in time
Whoa, whoa, going back in time

Gravity lyrics - Daughtry

Escape the noise to find a voice
What kind of sound that'd be
Life ain't enough, a familiar place
What fills the void that we need?

Breathing with no air
Can't, hear my echoes, when
I scream out, I'm cravin' gravity
I'm like a shipwreck, inside
Stranded with no land in sight
I need an anchor, my gravity

Even though we're not under the same sun, we're not far
Don't have to be miles apart if you're here, in my heart
I can feel your love from a different place, it's okay
Don't have to be miles apart if you're here, in my heart

Embrace the strange, who's to say
I don't belong here anyway
And passing by, or visiting
And I could get used to this

Breathing with no air
Can't, hear my echoes, when
I scream out, I'm craving gravity

Even though we're not under the same sun, we're not far
Don't have to be miles apart if you're here, in my heart
I can feel your love from a different place, it's okay
Don't have to be miles apart if you're here, in my heart
Don't have to be miles apart if you're here, in my heart

(I'm like a shipwreck inside, stranded with no land in sight)
Don't have to be miles apart if you're here, in my heart
(I'm like a shipwreck inside, stranded with no land in sight)
Don't have to be miles apart if you're here

Stuff Of Legends lyrics - Daughtry

I live days, alone and afraid
With my devils, how I wrestle them
I spent hours staring at the walls
I heard angels sing Hallelujah

I'm tired of waiting for the ship to come
And being told that it can't be done
Gon' go ahead and give me some
Gon' go ahead and give me some (Oh oh)
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Get to me
Get to me
I'm gonna

Fight with mercy (I'm gonna), love and anger (I'm gonna)
They won't get to me, get to me
'Cause that's the stuff of legends
All my power (I'm gonna), live life louder (I'm gonna)
They won't get to me, get to me
'Cause that's the stuff of legends

Walk that walk, feelin' like a boss
Flip that blue switch, turn them lights on

I'm tired of waiting for the day to come
So make it rain without blockin' the sun
Gon' go ahead and give me some
Gon' go ahead and give me some (Oh oh)
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Get to me
Get to me
I'm gonna

Fight with mercy (I'm gonna), love and anger (I'm gonna)
They won't get to me, get to me
'Cause that's the stuff of legends
All my power (I'm gonna), live life louder (I'm gonna)
They won't get to me, get to me
'Cause that's the stuff of legends

Won't let 'em get to me
Won't let 'em get to me
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Won't let 'em get to me (No)
Get to me
Get to me
I'm gonna

Fight with mercy (I'm gonna), love and anger (I'm gonna)
They won't get to me, get to me
'Cause that's the stuff of legends
All my power (I'm gonna), live life louder (I'm gonna)
They won't get to me, get to me
'Cause that's the stuff of legends

I'm tired of waiting for the day to come
So make it rain without blocking the sun
Gon' go ahead and give me some
Gon' go ahead and give me some (Oh)
I'm tired of waiting for the day to come
So make it rain without blocking the sun
Gon' go ahead and give me some
Gon' go ahead and give me some
I'm tired of waiting for the day to come
So make it rain without blocking the sun
Gon' go ahead and give me some
Gon' go ahead and give me some (Oh oh)

White Flag lyrics - Daughtry

I lost my words lingering in the dark
Hard times, don't you know we've seen them all
Ain't one to preach
Ain't one to speak on what I don't know
I lay that burden down
With one hand, we're reaching for the sky
And one hand, holding on for life
I won't raise my, I won't raise my white flag
In this life

The moment I surrender, bury me in the ground
I'd die before you see me take a bow
You know we all got, you know we all got
You know we all got a lot to lose
I won't surrender, praise the Lord my soul to take
Thank God I live to die another day
You know we all got, you know we all got
You know we all got a lot to lose
I won't raise my white flag
'Til I'm through

I found my way following a trail of hurt
'Cause my name ain't no stranger to the dirt
It's been dragged around, it's been kicked around
They left it lying there for dead, whoa
But I defy before I lose the right
And take the time to watch the river rise
I won't raise my, I won't raise my white flag
In this life

The moment I surrender, bury me in the ground
I'd die before you see me take a bow
You know we all got, you know we all got
You know we all got a lot to lose
I won't surrender, praise the Lord my soul to take
Thank God I live to die another day
You know we all got, you know we all got
You know we all got a lot to lose
I won't raise my white flag
'Til I'm through

I won't raise my, I won't raise my
I won't raise my white flag until I'm through
Until I'm through
Yeah

The moment I surrender, bury me in the ground
I'd die before you see me take a bow
You know we all got, you know we all got
You know we all got a lot to lose
I won't surrender, praise the Lord my soul to take
Thank God I live to die another day
You know we all got, you know we all got
You know we all got a lot to lose
I won't raise my white flag, no
I won't raise my white flag 'til I'm through

I won't raise my, I won't raise my
I won't raise my white flag until I'm through

I won't raise my, I won't raise my
I won't raise my white flag until I'm through

Alive lyrics - Daughtry

(originally by Sia)

I was born in a thunderstorm
I grew up overnight
I played alone
I played on my own
But I survived

Hey
I wanted everything I never had
Like the love that comes with light
I wore envy and I hated that
But I survived

I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
Where the wind don't change
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
No hope, just lies
And you're taught to cry into your pillow
But I survived

I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

I found solace in the strangest place
Way in the back of my mind
I saw my life in a stranger's face
And it was mine

I had a one-way ticket to a place where all the demons go
Where the wind don't change
And nothing in the ground can ever grow
No hope, just lies
And you're taught to cry into your pillow
But I survived

But I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
Yeah

You took it all, but I'm still breathing
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
You took it all, but I'm still breathing
You took it all, but I'm still breathing

I have made every single mistake
That you could ever possibly make
I took and I took and I took what you gave
But you never noticed that I was in pain
I knew what I wanted; I went out and got it
I did all the things that you said that I wouldn't
I told you that I would never be forgotten
And all in spite of you

And I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing
I'm still breathing, I'm still breathing
I'm alive (You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
I'm alive (You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
I'm alive (You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
(You took it all, but I'm still breathing)
I'm alive

I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Artificial lyrics - Daughtry

Artificial

No blood in the veins
Built to feel without the pain
Circuits for the brain
Wide awake
A vision of perfection, no lies
Just bitter resurrection, disguise
Just another lethal injection
To mankind

Welcome to your worst nightmare
The days are getting dark, you should be scared
It doesn't have a heart
Plug into the new you, don't resist
'Cause it's no use, it's no use
It's digital warfare
The death of who we are is right here
It's never gonna stop
Plug into your new soul, ice cold
Mechanical, artificial

No love, no embrace
Something's wrong and outta place
A soulless masquerade
A disgrace
No sickness, no dying, no disease
No begging for mercy, on your knees
No god, no religion
No beliefs

Welcome to your worst nightmare
The days are getting dark, you should be scared
It doesn't have a heart
Plug into the new you, don't resist
'Cause it's no use, it's no use
It's digital warfare
The death of who we are is right here
It's never gonna stop
Plug into your new soul, ice cold
Mechanical, artificial

No sickness, no dying, no disease
No begging for mercy, on your knees
No god, no religion
No beliefs

No belief
No belief

Welcome to your worst nightmare
The days are getting dark, you should be scared
It doesn't have a heart
Plug into the new you, don't resist
'Cause it's no use, no use
It's digital warfare
The death of who we are is right here
It's never gonna stop
Plug into your new soul, ice cold
Mechanical, artificial

No sickness, no dying, no disease
No begging for mercy, on your knees
Plug into your new soul, ice cold
Mechanical, artificial

Hunger Strike lyrics - Daughtry (feat. Lajon Witherspoon)

(originally by Temple Of The Dog)

I don't mind stealin' bread from the mouths of decadence
But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled, yeah
But it's on the table, the fire's cookin'
And they're farmin' babies, while the slaves are all workin'
Blood is on the table and the mouths are all chokin'
But I'm goin' hungry, yeah

I don't mind stealin' bread from the mouths of decadence
But I can't feed on the powerless when my cup's already overfilled, uh huh
But it's on the table, the fire's cookin'
And they're farmin' babies, while the slaves are all workin'
And it's on the table, their mouths are all chokin'
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)

I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)

(Yeah, I don't mind stealin' bread) I don't mind
(No, I don't mind stealin' bread) I don't mind
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)
I'm goin' hungry (Goin' hungry)

Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) lyrics - Daughtry (feat. Lzzy Hale)

(originally by Journey)

Here we stand
Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground, I'm reaching for you, you, you

Feeling that it's gone
Can't change your mind
If we can't go on to survive the tide
Love divides

Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our separate ways

Troubled times
Caught between confusion and pain, pain, pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain, in vain, in vain

If you must go
I wish you luck
You'll never walk alone
Take care, my love
Miss you, love

Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our separate ways

Oh
I still love you, babe
I still love you, girl
I really love you, babe
I really love you, girl
Oh

Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched and went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched and went our separate ways

Though we went our separate ways
Though we went our separate ways
Though we went our separate ways
Though we went our separate ways
Though we went our separate ways
Though we went our separate ways
