Cage To Rattle (2018)




















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

Baptized lyrics - Daughtry

It's safe to say I'm lost,
Without you in my arms,
So I call your name and I pray you might
Come and watch over me like the pale moonlight,
Until the sun comes back around.

Take me down, take me down by the water, water,
Pull me in until I see the light,
Let me drown, let me drown, in your honey, honey,
In your love I wanna be baptized.
Take me down, take me down by the water, water,
I wanna be baptized.

And the days and nights are cold,
Without your body to hold,
So I close my eyes hoping you'll appear,
Cause it feels like grace every time you're near, yeah,
Don't leave, until the sun comes back around.

Take me down, take me down by the water, water,
Pull me in until I see the light,
Let me drown, let me drown, in your honey, honey,
In your love I wanna be baptized.
Take me down, take me down by the water, water,
I wanna be baptized.

Take me down, take me down by the water,
Pull me in until I see the light,
Let me drown, let me drown, in your honey,
In your love I wanna be baptized.

Take me down, take me down by the water, water,
Pull me in until I see the light,
Let me drown, let me drown, in you honey, honey,
In your love I wanna be baptized.

Take me down, take me down by the water, water,
In your love I wanna be baptized,
Let me drown, let me drown, in you honey,
I wanna be baptized.

Waiting For Superman lyrics - Daughtry

She’s watching the taxi driver, he pulls away
She’s been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days

She says, “Yeah, he’s still coming, just a little bit late.
He got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape.”
She’s just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name
Like Lois Lane
And she smiles, oh the way she smiles

She’s talking to angels,
Counting the stars
Making a wish on a passing car
She’s dancing with strangers,
Falling apart
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
In his arms, yeah, in his arms, yeah
Waiting for Superman

She’s out on the corner trying to catch a glimpse
Nothing’s making sense
She’s been chasing an answer, a sign lost in the abyss,
This Metropolis

She says, "Yeah, he’s still coming, just a little bit late.
He got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day.”
She says, "If life was a movie, then it wouldn’t end like this,
Left without a kiss."
Still, she smiles, oh, the way she smiles, yeah

She’s talking to angels,
Counting the stars
Making a wish on a passing car
She’s dancing with strangers,
She’s falling apart
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
In his arms, yeah, in his arms, yeah
She’s waiting for Superman...

...to lift her up and take her anywhere
Show her love and flying through the air
Save her now before it’s too late tonight
Oh, at the speed of light
And she smiles

She’s talking to angels,
Counting the stars
Making a wish on a passing car
She’s dancing with strangers,
She’s falling apart
Waiting for Superman to pick her up
In his arms, yeah, in his arms, yeah
She’s waiting for Superman...

...to lift her up and take her anywhere
Show her love, oh, and flying through the air
Save her now before it’s too late tonight
She’s waiting for Superman

Battleships lyrics - Daughtry

Yeah

I’m sinking inside
And the masts and lines are broken down tonight.
I swallow my pride
But we’re drowning in the ocean and it’s tearing my heart open

Baby, we’re high then we’re low, first it’s yes then it’s no, and we’re changing like the tides
Yeah, but I want you, I need you, and I guarantee you we’ll make it out alive

'Cause I don’t wanna fight no more,
Even when the waves get rough
I don’t wanna see the day we say we’ve had enough

And I don’t wanna fight this war
Bullets coming off our lips
But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships.
Like battleships.

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes

Bombs fly through the air
And I know that we’re both playing not so fair.
Oh, show, show me you care
I got my white flag up and it’s waving 'cause you know this love’s worth saving, baby.

We’re high then we’re low, first it’s yes then it’s no, and we’re changing like the tides
Yeah, but I want you, I need you, and I guarantee you we’ll make it out alive

'Cause I don’t wanna fight no more,
Even when the waves get rough
I don’t wanna see the day we say we’ve had enough

And I don’t wanna fight this war
Bullets coming off our lips
But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships.
Like battleships.

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And we love, yeah we love
And we love, yeah we love

I’m sinking inside
Can we finally put our weapons down tonight?

'Cause I don’t wanna fight no more,
Even when the waves get rough
I don’t wanna see the day we say we’ve had enough

And I don’t wanna fight this war
Bullets coming off our lips
But we stick to our guns and we love like battleships.
Like battleships.

Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And the cannon goes
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom, boom, boom
Boom, ba-boom, boom, ba-boom
And we love like battleships.

I'll Fight lyrics - Daughtry

I wanna see you run
Anywhere you want
Never let the darkness hold you back
No fear of getting lost

I wanna see you fly
Way beyond the sun
Anything you're ever gonna dream
I pray that it will come

But if you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)

Where you wanna go
I'd love to take you there
Wish that I could make the road easy
I wish that life was fair
Don't wanna see you cry
Even when it rains
And I hope you don't forget this
You were born for better things

But if you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
With no strength to stand
I'm gonna reach for your hand
When the going gets rough right when it's hurting
I will be there to help bear the burden
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight

Anywhere you go
You're gonna find me
No matter what you need
If you ever fall down and you can't get back
If you lose your strength to stand

If you ever fall down straight to the bottom
And you can't get back where you started
With no strength to stand
I'm gonna reach for your hand
When the going gets rough right when it's hurting
I will be there to help bear the burden
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight
(Ooh ooh, ooh ooh)
Any place any time
You gotta know for you I'll fight

Wild Heart lyrics - Daughtry

You used to be the girl who set the world on fire
And they doused your soul in water but the flames raged higher
Used to act so tough like you could walk on a wire
And they called you devil's daughter, such a pretty liar
Yeah
Yeah

You were burning like the summer, crazy like a fox
You hit harder than a drummer, like a wave on the rocks
You could play me like the lotto, you were playing a part
There ain't nobody could tame you and your wild heart
Yeah
Yeah

[Chorus:]
Take me back
To those barefoot summer nights
Take me back
Running down those highway lights
Remember when
We said don't let go ´til we die
Take me back
To that fire in your eyes
'Cause I know it ain't gone too far
Take me back to you and to your wild heart
Yeah
To your wild heart
Yeah

You used to be the girl that could light up a room
And with the flip of a switch I bet you still do
You would leave a trail of danger yeah wherever you go
And no matter where it lead me I would follow
Yeah
Mmm yeah

You were beautiful in blue jeans, holes on the knees
You were smoking like a cigarette, I couldn't breathe
Used to rock around the ballroom, dance on the bar
Baby nobody could tame you and your wild heart

[Chorus:]
Take me back
To those barefoot summer nights
Take me back
Running down those highway lights
Remember when
We said don't let go ´til we die
Take me back
To that fire in your eyes
'Cause I know it ain't gone too far
Take me back to you and to your wild heart
Yeah
To your wild heart
Yeah

[Bridge:]
You used to be the girl that set the world on fire
And they doused your soul in water but the flames raged higher
You'll always be the one to keep me crazy inside
And if you got a wild heart don't you let it die

[Chorus:]
Take me back
To those barefoot summer nights
Take me back
Running down those highway lights
Remember when
We said don't let go ´til we die
Take me back
To that fire in your eyes
'Cause I know it ain't gone too far
Take me back to you and to your wild heart
Yeah
To your wild heart
Yeah
To your wild heart
To your wild heart
Yeah

Long Live Rock & Roll lyrics - Daughtry


Well I was born
The year that disco died
And U2 was in high school
Thank the Lord that they survived
Got my first taste, on a Seger '45
And since that Kiss I rocked out
All day and partied every night

We still argue about who's better
Elton John or Billy Joel
We still wonder if Kurt really
Wrote the song she sang in Hole
No we'll never stop believing
That's the Journey of our lives
So won't you help me Pour Some Sugar
On these memories tonight?

Sing it
Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sayin'
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
Long live rock and roll

Summer of '96, I got my first guitar
I played it till my fingers said,
"You're gonna be a star."
Grunge was everything, at least it was to me
A Marshall in my Chevy Sprint
Just winding down a dream

We still argue about who's better
Motley Crue or GNR
We still can't believe Van Halen
Turned into Van Hagar
Now the record shops are gone for good
And no one seems to care
But me and you and all our friends
Keep Living On That Prayer

Sing it
Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sayin'
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
Long live rock and roll

Went to bed in Cleveland
Woke up in Tennessee
No matter where I'll roll tonight
I'm chasing history

We still argue about who's better
The Beatles or The Stones
They're forever 27
Jimi, Janis, Brian Jones
And we stand here in their memory
'Cause their songs, they still survive
So throw your lighters up
And, darling, sing with me tonight

Come on

Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sayin'
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
Long live rock and roll

Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sing it
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold

Long live rock and roll

The World We Knew lyrics - Daughtry


Another year goes by
Speeding as I drive
Felt like I would live this life
I knew forever
I didn't see it change
But I know it's not the same
I'd bring it back, if I could
But I know, I'm not that clever

Life's so short
And it goes by fast
And we can't get it back

The world we knew
It was so simple then
Me and you
Thought it would never end
Oh, what I wouldn't do
To get back to
The world we knew

Songs can bring you back
Yeah, I remember that
Nothing wrong the days were long
And the sun was warmer

Life's so short
And it goes by fast
We'll never get it back

The world we knew
It was so simple then
Me and you
Thought it would never end
Oh, what I wouldn't do
To get back to
The world we knew

I remember nights baby, you and I
Taking what we were given
And I remember days
Standing in the rain
That's what I can't leave there
Not a worry, not a care dancing in the rain
That's what I call living
Not a worry, not a care
Everything was different but
We're still here

In the world we knew
It was so simple then
Me and you
It was so simple then
The world we knew
Hey, oh yeah
The world we knew

Ohh, the world we knew

High Above The Ground lyrics - Daughtry

You and I both, we come from different worlds
I'm a small town kid and you're an uptown girl
We've both been hurt, we got a few scars
But it don't matter now, we're staring at the stars

When it comes to my heart you got it catching fire
Deep down in my soul I know that I would die
If I didn't have you how could I ever fly?
100 miles beyond the sky

[Chorus:]
It's feeling like we're high above the ground
It's feeling like we're never coming down
Till we want to
But why would we want to?
It's feeling like we're high above the ground
It's feeling like we're never coming down
Till we want to
But why would we want to night?

Remember that day, we knew it from the start
We've come a long way and we're gonna go far
I see the future in your eyes
Forever and always, you and I

[Chorus:]
It's feeling like we're high above the ground
It's feeling like we're never coming down
Till we want to
But why would we want to?
It's feeling like we're high above the ground
It's feeling like we're never coming down
Till we want to
But why would we want to night?

[Bridge:]
When we're so close to heaven
Underneath the moonlight, yeah it's paradise
It's gonna be too hard to say
Goodnight yeah

[Chorus:]
It's feeling like we're high above the ground
It's feeling like we're never coming down
Till we want to
But why would we want to?
It's feeling like we're high above the ground
It's feeling like we're never coming down
Till we want to
But why would we want to?
It's feeling like we're high above the ground
It's feeling like we're never coming down
Till we want to
But why would we want to night?

Broken Arrows lyrics - Daughtry

Hey
Show me one man that's never made mistakes
Oh,
And I'll pay
All of my time and every dime I made
But today

The best of intentions I lay at your feet
And I need you to see past the worst part of me

I'm tired of taking my aim
When I keep on missing
There's gotta be a better way
Gotta be a better way

And every little word I say
Keeps getting twisted
Coming out wrong
So baby hold on
I'm tryin' to hit the mark
But I'm shooting with broken arrows
It's like I'm shooting with broken arrows

No
I may not be a saint but I've got a heart of gold
Yeah
Oh, like a telephone
Connection ain't clear
But I hope you hear my soul
You gotta know

Yeah
The best of intentions I lay at your feet
And I need you to see past the worst part of me

And I'm tired of taking my aim
When I keep on missing
There's gotta be a better way
There's gotta be a better way

Seems like every little word I say
Keeps getting twisted
Coming out wrong
So baby hold on
I'm tryin' to hit the mark
But I'm shooting with broken arrows
It's like I'm shooting with broken arrows
It's like I'm shooting with broken arrows (yeah)
It's like I'm shooting with broken arrows
Broken arrows

I'm drawing it back now
And the target is you
And I don't know what else I can do, whoa

I'm tired of taking my aim
When I keep on missing
There's gotta be a better way
There's gotta be a better way

Seems like every little word I say
Keeps getting twisted
Coming out wrong
So baby hold on
I'm trying to hit the mark
But I'm shooting with broken arrows
It's like I'm shooting with broken arrows (yeah)
It's like I'm shooting with broken arrows (yeah)
It's like I'm shooting with broken arrows
Broken arrows... yeah

Witness lyrics - Daughtry

Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired?
Hollowed out and feeling uninspired
The question I keep asking is
What will it take to ease your worried mind
Your worried mind

Now you're letting your confusion take control
And lead you down a dark and lonely road
Even that won't last forever
Just look around and see you're not alone
You're not alone

If you ain't finding love but you're still not giving up
Can I get a witness?
If you're down and out but you still wanna live it up
Can I get a witness?
And if the weight of the world is on you now
But you know you can turn it all around again
Can I get a witness?
Yeah
Can I get a witness?
Yeah

Does it feel like you're just wasting time
Here without a reason or a rhyme
The answer you've been looking for
Is standing right before your weary eyes
Your weary eyes

If you ain't finding love but you're still not giving up
Can I get a witness?
If you're down and out but you still wanna live it up
Can I get a witness?
And if the weight of the world is on you now
But you know you can turn it all around again
Can I get a witness?
Yeah
Can I get a witness?
Yeah

And if the weight of the world is on you now
But you know you can turn it all around again

Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired?

If you ain't finding love but you're still not giving up
Can I get a witness?
If you're down and out but you still wanna live it up
Can I get a witness?
And if the weight of the world is on you now
But you know you can turn it all around again
Can I get a witness?
Yeah
Can I get a witness?
Yeah

And if the weight of the world is on you now
But you know you can turn it all around again
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?
Can I get a witness?

Traitor lyrics - Daughtry

I'm not a criminal
I'm not the villain
Yeah this is personal
A drive-by killing

Your guns are loaded
And your lies are the bullets
So here is the trigger
Go ahead and pull it, now

Are you sure you wanna play this game?
Are you sure you wanna play it?

The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor...
You put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
And now it's war
War

We were just like brothers
And we had each other
We were down for the good times
We were there for the troubles
Like a thief in the night
Broad daylight
You stole my sanity
Now you are the enemy

Are you sure you wanna play this game?
Are you sure you wanna play it?

The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor
You put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
And now it's war
War

Oh oh,
I should feel sorry for you
Oh oh,
Watching you drown in your denial
Oh oh,
But I can't feel sorry for you
Oh oh,
Watching you drown 'cause you're a traitor

The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor
You put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
And now it's war
War

The only thing worse than a hater
The only thing worse than a hater
Is a traitor
A traitor
A traitor
You put the knife right in my back
Killed any history we had
And now it's war
War

18 Years lyrics - Daughtry


Sit down with an old friend
Like time it never stopped
From the cradle to the coffin
We drink until we drop
Yeah, we grew up on the same street
A small town under the hill, yeah
But dreams get lost and buried down
Deep inside the soil there, yeah

All day all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day all night
I remember
All day all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day all night
I remember

We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
Looking back in the rear view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we'll laugh and we'll cry
Till there's no more tears
And tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years
18 years

Some ran down the highway
To chase away their ghosts
Some are frozen in the same place
This time inside their bones
Remember throwing TVs off the overpass onto the tracks, yeah
But the trains roll on through the small town and never looked back, yeah

All day all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day all night
I remember
All day all night
Keep pressing rewind
All day
Tell me do you remember

We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
Looking back in the rear view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we'll laugh and we'll cry
Till there's no more tears
And tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years
18 years

Yeah, we just hold on
Yeah, we just hold on
Yeah, we just hold on
On those 18 years
Yeah, we just hold on
Yeah, we just hold on
Yeah, we just hold on
18 years
18 years, yeah

We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
We were building a bridge
Out of broken dreams
We were crashing like cars
When we were 18

We were young, we were wild
We were halfway free
We were kids on the run
On a dead-end street
Looking back in the rear view mirror
You know the view used to be much clearer
But we'll laugh and we'll cry
Till there's no more tears
And tonight, can we just hold on to those 18 years

Can we just hold on
Can we just hold on
Can we just hold on
On those 18 years
Can we just hold on
Can we just hold on
Can we just hold on
Those 18 years

Undefeated lyrics - Daughtry

Ho-o-o-o
Ho-o-o-o
Ho-o-o-o-ope

Swing left, swing right
Bruised and black-eyed, half alive
Bleeding, choking
Bent not broken inside

And in this world of compromise
I hit every curb, every red light
Trying to keep both hands on the wheel
But through it all I’m…

Still undefeated
With my back against the ropes
Still undefeated
You can knock me down with body blows
But you cannot break my hope

Weak knees, can’t stand
Raise up your hands
Don’t walk away
Been sucker punched but I’m not down
My feet have never left the ground
It’s a fight that I can fix
Like a cut that needs a stitch
And somehow through it all I stand

Still undefeated
With my back against the ropes
Still undefeated
You can knock me down with body blows
But you cannot break my hope
Cannot break my hope
Cannot break my hope

We’re the ones who take the beating
Get back up and we’re still breathing
We are the ones
We’ll take the hit straight to the face
And never look the other way
We are the ones

Still undefeated
With our backs against the ropes

We’re still undefeated
We’ll break these chains
To let them know
They cannot break our hope

They cannot break our hope
They cannot break our hope
They can break us down but they can’t break our hope

Cinderella lyrics - Daughtry

Dressed in rags
You're scoopin' litter from the cats
I thought we had someone for that
But by the looks of things you fired the maid again

Yeah I confess
I know that floor won't clean itself
And you're worried half to death
About the things that just won't matter in the end

Take off those shoes
Looks like you could really use a glass slipper
Yeah I know it's been a pisser
So one strong sipper might suffice

Come on girl, I'm beggin' please
Get off your knees, I got the keys
And I'll pick you up at midnight
In my souped-up pumpkin ride

'Cause you're my Cinderella
We're two birds of a feather
I'll even sing to you acapella
You're so hella good looking tonight
My Cinderella
Whenever you need some shelter
We can stand under my umbrella
Together
Need no fortune teller to say it's forever with you
Oh, I know it's forever with you

Don't watch the clock,
I paid some dude to make it stop
But we won't worry 'bout tomorrow
There's no sorrow in this fairy tale I wrote

I gotta say
You still take my breath away
That look reminds me of that day
You scratched your number on that yellow post-it note

And now you're my Cinderella
We're two birds of a feather
I'll even sing to you acapella
You're so hella good looking tonight
My Cinderella
Whenever you need some shelter
We can stand under my umbrella
Together
Need no fortune teller to say it's forever with you
Oh, I know it's forever with you

Check out those stars
I picked 'em up one day on Mars
And you thought I was at the bar
Well okay maybe there's a little truth to that

As I was sayin'
If you squint a certain way
You'll see they kinda spell your name
Just a little
Okay maybe that's a stretch

But you're my Cinderella
We're two birds of a feather
I'll even sing to you acapella
Forever
Or until you've had enough

Cause you're my Cinderella
And I'm your kind of fella
I wanna kiss you there and tell ya
You're so hella good looking tonight
My Cinderella
Whenever you need some shelter
We can stand under my umbrella
Together
Need no fortune teller to say it's forever with you
Oh, I know it's forever with you

Yeah, and I mean forever with you
Oh, I know it's forever with you

"Break The Spell" (2011)

Don’t you want to feel like a rebel

Crawling Back To You lyrics - Daughtry

Lessons learned, bridges burned to the ground,
And it's too late now to put out the fire,
Tables turned, and I'm the one who's burning now,
Well I'm doing alright,
'Til I close my eyes
And then I see your face,
And it's no surprise.

[Chorus:]
Just like that I'm crawling back to you,
Just like you said I would yeah,
I swallow my pride,
Now I'm crawling back to you,
I'm out of my head,
Can't wait any longer,
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger,
Just like that, like you said I'd do,
I'm crawling back to you.

Time can heal, but the scars only hide the way you feel,
And it's hard to forget how I left you hanging
On by a thread, when everything is said, I will regret it, yeah,
I was doin' alright, thought I could make it,
Then I see your face and it's hard to fake it.

[Chorus:]
Just like that I'm crawling back to you,
Just like you said I would yeah,
I swallow my pride,
Now I'm crawling back to you,
I'm out of my head,
Can't wait any longer,
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger,
Just like that, like you said I'd do,
I'm crawling back to you.

If you could find a way, to forgive everything, I know you would.
And I would take it all back, give if only I knew that I could.

Lessons learned, bridges burned to the ground.
And it's too late now, to put out the fire.

[Chorus:]
Just like that I'm crawling back to you,
Just like you said I would yeah,
I swallow my pride,
Now I'm crawling back to you,
I'm out of my head,
Can't wait any longer,
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger,
Just like that, like you said I'd do,
I'm crawling back to you.

I'm crawling back to you [3x]

Outta My Head lyrics - Daughtry

I thought it would be easy
But it ain't for me
It's kinda hard when you lay your heart
On a one way street
I really thought by now
You woulda slipped my mind
But the kind of love sent from above
Is the killing kind

Put my mind to rest and try to sleep it off
It'll be alright when the morning comes
Or am I wrong

[Chorus:]
Ain't no doubt about it
I can't live without it
Tried to forget you
But I can't get you outta my head
Just when I think you're gone
You come back and turn it on
And just like a simple song
I can't get you outta my head

Well I saw you dancin'
Dancin' in my dreams
I saw your face and I can't erase
All the things I've seen
Even if I try
Cause Lord knows I've tried
I can't escape
And I can't shake the pain inside

[Bridge:]
Crazy when she comes and crazy as she goes
I'm holding out my hands with nothing left to show
Guess that's the way it goes

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Start Of Something Good lyrics - Daughtry

You never know when you're gonna meet someone
And your whole wide world in a moment comes undone
You're just walking around and suddenly
Everything that you thought that you knew about love is gone

You find out it's all been wrong
And all my scars don't seem to matter anymore
Cause they led me here to you

[CHORUS]
I know that its gonna take some time
I've got to admit that the thought has crossed my mind
This might end up like it should
And I'm gonna say what I need to say
And hope to god that it don't scare you away
Don't wanna be misunderstood
But I'm starting to believe that this could be the start of something good

Everyone knows life has its Ups and downs
One day you're on top of the world and one day you're the clown

Well I've been both enough to know
That you don't wanna get in the way when its working out
The way that it is right now
You see my heart i wear it on my sleeve
Cause I just can't hide it anymore

[CHORUS]
I know that it's gonna take some time
I've got to admit that the thought has crossed my mind
This might end up like it should
And I'm gonna say what I need to say
And hope to god that it don't scare you away
Don't wanna be misunderstood
But I'm starting to believe that this could be the start

Cause I don't know where it's going
There's a part of me that loves not knowing
Just don't let it end before we begin

You never know when you're gonna meet someone
And your whole wide world in a moment comes undone

[CHORUS]
I know that its gonna take some time
I've got to admit that the thought has crossed my mind
This might end up like it should
And I'm gonna say what I need to say
And hope to god that it don't scare you away
Don't wanna be misunderstood
But I'm starting to believe
Oh I'm starting to believe that this could be the start of something good

Crazy lyrics - Daughtry

There's no hiding room
When every wound
Brings the darkest place to light
So why not assume
That straight out of the womb
I've been marked by a beast of some kind
(Marked by a beast of some kind)
And there are so many reasons why you're not

Crazy for leaving
Just crazy for staying so long
I'm amazed you're still breathing
Amazed you can feel at all
For all the pain I caused
I'm the one crazy after all
The one crazy after all

There's no need for signs
When your crying eyes said a million words tonight
And I'd rather die than see you do time
For the wrongs that you can't make right

You're not crazy for leaving
Just crazy for staying so long
I'm amazed you're still breathing
Amazed you can feel at all
For all the pain I caused
I'm the one crazy after all

I'm so far gone, found my way back to broken somehow
Yeah when you moved on, then I can't find my way out

You're not crazy for leaving
Just crazy for staying so long
I'm amazed you're still breathing
Amazed you can feel at all
For all the pain I caused
I'm the one crazy after all
(The one crazy after all)
I'm the one crazy after all
The one crazy after all
I'm crazy

Break The Spell lyrics - Daughtry

Like a moth into a flame,
I'm hypnotized,
And like a stone,
I'm paralyzed cause I can't look away,

You found your way under my skin,
And I'm tryin' not to love you,
But I hate the way I keep on givin'

Into you, like I always do,
No matter how I try,
Or maybe could it be,
That you're the part of me,
That's keeping me alive?

How am I supposed to break this spell you got me under,
I'm so addicted to the pain,
Got your poison running through my veins,

The way you pull me in,
The way you chew me up,
The way you spit me out,
I keep coming back, I can't get enough,
I can't go without you,

I could fight you 'til the end,
But I will lose you if I win,
So I guess I'll just keep on givin'

Into you, like I always do,
No matter how I try,
Or maybe could it be,
That you're the part of me,
That's keeping me alive?

How am I supposed to break this spell you got me under,
I'm so addicted to the pain,
Got your poison running through my veins,

The way you pull me in,
The way you chew me up,
The way you spit me out,
I keep coming back, I can't get enough,
I can't go without you,

This feeling is far from sober,
Its beauty buried deep inside,
You're the only one who gets me high,
And I know it's far from over,

As you can see you're the part of me,
That's keeping me alive

How am I supposed to break this spell you got me under,
I'm so addicted to the pain,
Got your poison running through my veins,

The way you pull me in,
The way you chew me up,
The way you spit me out,
I keep coming back, I can't get enough,
I can't go without,

The way you pull me in,
The way you chew me up,
The way you spit me out,
I keep coming back, I can't get enough,
I can't go without,

I keep coming back, I can't get enough,
I can't go without, you.

We're Not Gonna Fall lyrics - Daughtry

Its a world full of heartbreak drive by's
We've seen our fair share of hard nights
Looked right into the face of a goodbye
While we walked on the edge of the dark side

After all this time, yeah
We're not gonna fall now
We're not gonna bleed out
Never gonna break down
No, No-oh-oh

Just when these four walls try to cave in
And the ground underneath starts shaking
It's the hope in your eyes that I cling to
And I hope to god it never leaves you

After all this time, yeah
We're not gonna fall now
We're not gonna bleed out
Never gonna break down
No, No-oh-oh

We're not gonna fall now
We're not gonna bleed out
Never gonna break down
No, No-oh-oh

Even if they come for us
Everything can turn to dust
You and I are never going down

The bullets and bombs of love
Go ahead and fire at us
We will never give it up
Ohhhh

We're not gonna fall now
We're not gonna bleed out
Never gonna break down
No, No-oh-oh

We're not gonna fall now
We're not gonna bleed out
Never gonna break down
No, No-oh-oh

We're not gonna fall now
We're not gonna bleed out
Never gonna break down
No, No-oh-oh

Gone Too Soon lyrics - Daughtry

Today could have been the day,
That you blow out your candles,
Make a wish as you close your eyes.

Today could have been the day,
Everybody was laughing,
Instead I just sit here and cry,

Who would you be?
What would you look like,
When you looked at me for the very first time?
Today could have been the next day of the rest of your life.

Not a day goes by,
That I don't think of you,
I'm always asking why this crazy world had to lose,
Such a ray of light we never knew,
Gone too soon, yeah.

Would you have been president
Or a painter, an author, or sing like your mother?
One thing is evident,
Would've given all I had,
Would've loved you like no other.

Who would you be,
What would you look like,
Would you have my smile and her eyes?
Today could have been the next day of the rest of your life.

Not a day goes by,
That I don't think of you,
I'm always asking why this crazy world had to lose,
Such a ray of light we never knew,
Gone too soon, yeah.

Not a day goes by,
Oh
I'm always asking why.

Not a day goes by,
That I don't think of you,
I'm always asking why this crazy world had to lose,
Such a beautiful light we never knew,
Gone too soon,
You were gone too soon
Yeah.

Not a day goes by,
That I don't think of you.

Losing My Mind lyrics - Daughtry


Never thought a train goin' any place could've changed my life
Never thought I'd say I could go insane, 'til I saw your eyes
And I had to take another look to know for sure
That you could be for real
You found an empty seat sittin' next to me
And I asked your name
Where you comin' from?
Where you headed to this Saturday?
'Cause I'm gonna be out on the town
As long as you are goin' there with me

Yeah and my head keeps spinnin'
You got me trippin'
There's something about the way you move
Yeah, every little single thing you do is like
One part angel and one part danger
But, oh, the kind of crazy I like
You got me losing my mind
I'm losing my mind!

It's getting hard to sleep
Getting hard to think 'bout much these days
'Cause everywhere I go
Only thing I see is your glowing face
And the way you light up every room you walk into
Just makes me want to scream

Yeah and my head keeps spinnin'
You got me trippin'
There's something about the way you move
Yeah, every little single thing you do is like
One part angel and one part danger
But, oh, the kind of crazy I like
You got me losing my mind
I'm losing my mind!

Can't understand why you got me so far gone
You're gonna have to lock me up before too long
You've got me losing my mind

Yeah and my head keeps spinnin'
You got me trippin'
There's something about the way you move
Yeah, every little single thing you do is like
One part angel and one part danger
But, oh, the kind of crazy I like
You got me losing my mind
I'm losing my mind!
You got me losing my mind
I'm losing my mind!

Rescue Me lyrics - Daughtry

Our story's old,
Older than the wind,
It's been this sad for years,
How can we pretend,
When we all know just how it's gonna end.

Rescue me,
In the middle of the ocean,
Crashing down, it's always hard to breathe,
Some say its easier to give up on it,
I say it's time to rescue me.

Lost and lonely people staring back,
Afraid to try,
Some of them here, the same as you and I,
The differences are all but left behind,

So I need you now

Rescue me,
In the middle of the ocean,
Crashing down, it's always hard to breathe,
Some say its hard to make the changes,
Rescue me and I'll never be the same,

Rescue me,
In the middle of my darkest hour,
Time will tell,
I never really had the power,
Some say it's easier to give up on it,
I say its time to rescue me.

We gotta get out,
How foolish have we been
To say it's all been a waste of time?
We may lose, and we may win,
But like the sun we will rise again.

Rescue me,
In the middle of the ocean,
Crashing down, it's always hard to breathe,
Some say its hard to make the changes,
Rescue me and I'll never be the same,

Rescue me,
In the middle of my darkest hour,
Time will tell,
I never really had the power,
Some say it's easier to give up on it,
I say its time to rescue me.

Rescue me,
In the middle of the ocean.

Louder Than Ever lyrics - Daughtry

Heard that song on the radio,
And it got my gears turnin'
Like a real life time machine.

You were there in the front seat,
Windows down we were burning,
It was just like a movie scene,
Those dashboard lights,
And your pale blue eyes cutting through me.

Two hearts on the getaway,
Feels just like yesterday,
Young love on the freeway,
Singing louder than ever.

Those nights we used to sing along,
We were living in a love song,
Those days might be gone,
But I hear it louder than ever.

We spent that whole summer long,
You and me and the moonlight,
Chasing dreams in a fast machine,

No way that it could go wrong,
When it all felt so right,
Feeling like California queen,
I cannot forget all of the ways that you loved me.

Two hearts on the getaway,
Feels just like yesterday,
Young love on the freeway,
Singing louder than ever.

Those nights we used to sing along,
We were living in a love song,
Those days might be gone,
But I hear it louder than ever.

I can't help but turn it up,
No it can't get loud enough,
Yeah, I just wanna hear it,
Over and over,
Over and over,

Heard that song on the radio,
And it got my gears turnin'
Like a real life time machine.

Two hearts on the getaway,
Feels just like yesterday,
Young love on the freeway,
Singing louder than ever.

Those nights we used to sing along,
We were living in a love song,
Those days might be gone,
But I hear it louder than ever.

Two hearts on the getaway,
Feels just like yesterday,
Young love on the freeway,
I hear it louder than ever.

Those nights we used to sing along,
We were living in a love song,
Those days might be gone,
But I hear it louder than ever.

Spaceship lyrics - Daughtry

Hood of my car
Radio's just loud enough so I can hear Levon
Where you are is anybody's guess but mine
Just a song that we grew up on
Constellations seem so outta line
But I'm wishing we could make it this time

If somebody's out there
Show me that you care
Give me a sign that comes outta nowhere
Like a shooting star
Or maybe life on Mars
Something inside tells me
we can't be too far 'cause
I can see me on a spaceship leaving here only to find
that we're not the only ones

We're not the only ones

Call me a fool for
Daydreaming in the dark and
Throwing bottles at the moon
Why you're gone is Nobody's Fault But Mine
Another song that we grew up on
Can anybody tell me where I can find
That girl I can't get out of my mind

If somebody's out there
Show me that you care
Give me a sign that comes outta nowhere
Like a shooting star
Or maybe life on Mars
Something inside tells me
we can't be too far 'cause
I can see me on a spaceship leaving here only to find
that we're not the only ones

Looking for love and
Looking for something more
When it's not enough
We gotta stay above the clouds
'Cause with our feet both on the ground
We'll never learn

I can see me on a spaceship leaving here only to find
that we're not the only ones

Somebody's out there
Show me that you care
Give me a sign that comes outta nowhere
Like a shooting star
Maybe life on Mars
Something inside tells me
We can't be too far 'cause

I can see me on a spaceship leaving
Come see for yourself if you don't believe me
Together we will find that we're not the only ones

We're not the only ones

Who's They lyrics - Daughtry

They say we need to be
A certain way to fit the mold
Or so they say
But who's they

How can we pretend
To care and bend because we're told
We're not OK
Who's they?
Who's they?
Who's they?

They say we need to be
A certain way to fit the mold
Or so they say
But who's they?

How can we pretend
To care and bend because we 're told
We're not OK
Who's they?
Who's they?
Who's they?

We can't go wrong
When we all stand tall
And we sing the same song
We'll find it hard not to get along
We can't go wrong
When we all stand tall
And we sing the same song
We'll find it hard not to get along

We'll find it hard not to sing along
La da da da da da [x3]

We'll find it hard not to sing along
La da da da da da [x2]
La daaaaaaaaaaa

We'll find it hard not to sing along
La da da da da da [x3]
da da da da da

We'll find it hard not to sing along
la da da da da da [x2]

Oh
We'll find it hard not to sing along
La da da da da da
La da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da da

Maybe We're Already Gone lyrics - Daughtry

Our time's just another let down
White lies tearin' up a small town
Lost cause, someone's gotta break through
Coin toss, give away your next move
So much talkin', left with walkin'
Is this really what we wanted?
I don't think we'll ever know
Know you're sayin' hell we're payin'
Everything we want is fadin'
Faster than you'll ever know

Can you see the signs?
Have we lost our minds?
Looks like we've fallen
Feels like we've fallen
Down and down we go
Never felt so low
Can't hear you callin'
So maybe we're already gone

Maybe we're already gone!

Caught up, temporary meltdown
So what, it doesn't matter right now
Right now, anyhow
After somethin', all or nothin'
Goes right by ya, sends no motion
Why we let it take control?
Know you're sayin' hell we're payin'
Everything we want is fading
And all is lost and heaven knows

Can you see the signs?
Have we lost our minds?
Looks like we've fallen
Feels like we've fallen
Down and down we go
Never felt so low
Can't hear you callin'
So maybe we're already gone

Maybe we're already gone!
We'll make it through
Yeah, there's nothing else that we can do

Can you see the signs?
Have we lost our minds?
Looks like we've fallen
Feels like we've fallen
Down and down we go
Never felt so low
Can't hear you callin'
So maybe we're already gone

Can you see the signs?
Have we lost our minds?
Looks like we've fallen
Maybe we're already
Down and down we go
Never felt so low
Can't hear you callin'
So maybe we're already gone

Everything But Me lyrics - Daughtry

Far away in another place
I'd give my soul just to see your face
Found a note hidden in my suitcase
Of everything that you just couldn't say
How'd you know I needed that today?

Wherever you are is where I want to be
Look around and tell me what you see
Everything, everything but me
No matter how many miles stand in between
In my heart is where you'll be
Holdin' on to all our dreams
With everything, everything but me

Lookin' through photographs today
Different times always seem the same
Then I saw a picture of your smile
Something I haven't seen in a while
You know the one, the one you loved to hate
But every time it takes my breath away

Wherever you are is where I want to be
Look around and tell me what you see
Everything, everything but me
No matter how many miles stand in between
In my heart is where you'll be
Holdin' on to all our dreams
With everything, everything but me

Do you know how much it hurts to go
And leave it all behind, leave it all behind
I see you in my mind
'Cause you were right there all the time
Far away in another place
Give my soul just to see your face

Wherever you are is where I want to be
Look around and tell me what you see
Everything, everything but me
No matter how many miles stand in between
In my heart is where you'll be
Holdin' on to all our dreams, yeah
No matter how many miles stand in between
In my heart is where you'll be
Holdin' on to all our dreams
With everything, everything but me
With everything, everything but me

Lullaby lyrics - Daughtry

I can't wait to see your faces
I can't wait to hold your hands
I can't wait to take you places
And watch you try to understand
But until I do
Yeah, until I do
I'll be right here waiting for you

I can't wait to see your faces
And I can't wait to hold your hands
When you get here, it's off to the races
And we'll tackle all life's demands
But until I do
Yeah, until I do
I'll be right here singing for you

Soon I will see your faces
And I'll get to hold your hands
I know I'll have trouble trying to explain
The things I don't understand
And until I do
Since I won't have a clue
I'll just sing this song for you

Yeah, until I do
And this is you-know-who
And Daddy's right here singing for you

Never Die lyrics - Daughtry

Is this hour breaking?
Now we're out of time
Changing seasons, a thousand reasons to say goodbye
Have we given all we have to give?
And are we living all the life that we can live?

We take away, take away
A piece of you and me and just walk away
But we'll never die
Never die

See it your way, or see it my way or never mind
Should we keep hurting or keep on searching the other side?
Have we taken all that we can take?
And have we broken every promise we can break?
And we'll take away, take away
A piece of you and me and just walk away
But we'll never die
Never die

And it's safe to say, safe to say
We never really mean it anyway
'Cause we'll never die, never die
Never die, never die

Make amends, start again
Before we go off the deep end
And turn the page, a new day
How can we pretend?

Oh, oh...

Take away, take away, yeah
A piece of you and me and just walk away
And it's safe to say, safe to say
We never really mean it anyway, yeah
And we'll
Take away, take away
A piece of you and me and just walk away
And with our two worlds collided we may fall
We will never die, never die
Never die, never die
Never die, never die
