    Lyrics:
    Why have we been so reckless?
    Acting like we don't know right from wrong
    And it's not like we didn't expect this
    When we've really known all along
    It could only be so long until we really felt it
    We've been digging our way down instead of digging our way out
    We can't keep living the way we have been
    It'll catch up to us and destroy everything else as well
    I know we were never perfect
    But it was more than worth it
    And we don't deserve it
    The strain that give with the way that we live
    It's taken too long for this realization
    But I'm hoping we will have so many more
    I never want to stop trying to make things better
    No matter how good I think they are
    Why have we been so complacent?
    Accepting everything as good enough
    With all the effort we never put in
    Convenience was the priority to us
    Taking the first step is the hardest part
    After we've been digging our way down instead of digging our way out
    We can't keep living the way we have been
    It'll catch up to us and destroy everything else as well
    I know we were never perfect
    But it was more than worth it
    And we don't deserve it
    The strain that give with the way that we live
    It's taken too long for this realization
    We're all sorry for the lost time
    But will we take a step in a new direction?
    I don't want to waste any more time
    But I can't do this without you
    Will you take my hand?
    We can't keep living the way we have been
    It'll catch up to us and destroy everything else as well
    I know we were never perfect
    But it was more than worth it
    And we don't deserve it
    The strain that give with the way that we live

    @sacredxgeometry 6 років тому +14

    I always felt this was one of Kyle's best songs because he embraces his lower range, which has a LOT of emotion in it. I remember this being the track I jammed the most on the album back in freshman year. It's been so long, and this band has been with me awhile, and I am just now going back to reminisce...

  • @Timps27

    RIP Kyle, we all miss you. This song sounds like it could have been written this week specifically about what we are growing through as a society right now. This world lost an amazing voice for progress when it lost you!

    @slashback7 Then don't bother sitting there listening to the whole song and listen to your own bloody music, it's that simple.
    Why is it so hard for people these days just to lift a finger and click the "X" button at the top?
    us Fans like it so that's all that matters.

    I really hated their last album so I really thought I wouldnt like this one either. I gave the album a listen, I was like meh, not too bad. Then I gave it a few more spins and it really grew on me. Overall I thought this was a really solid album, nice job :)

    True!
    This song makes anyone think about what they never think about.

    • @EvansWS6
      @EvansWS6 8 років тому +1

      +Josiah Pierce When I hear the song I think about someone consumed by drugs or a rough past decisions to get over those problems "why have we been digging our way down instead of digging our way out". Furthermore when he says "I'm sorry for the last time , will we take a step in the right direction" makes me feel like he's asking for a loved one(s) for help. Sounds to me like he knows the consequences, and can't stop on his own.
      I know I rambled. But ultimately, songs like this band, are what help everyone in their own way. We will never know for sure what these lyrics are about but for me, I hate my past decisions... And I I. Don't do something to change the way I think, and act, it can and will destroy everything..

    @theflipper404 13 років тому

    @slashback7 you realize your opinion means nothing lol... yeah cause i hear bands these days mix symphony/orchestra with there music... yeah totally generic... and your saying this is there worse song and the vocals are whiny... yet all there songs are simmilar... his singing sounds like this in every song... and of course its autotuned... you do realize that you still have to hit the note when you use autotune right? otherwise your voice will bounce all over the place...

    if you wanna be a grammar nazi then you should at least be a good one. in the english rules of grammar, you aren't supposed to put a conjunction after a comma. just sayin. :3

  • @Brigaed
    @Brigaed 12 років тому

    @shikacho950spet It's funny cause they're partly a Christian band! If you show him the lyrics to their songs, like "To Plant A Seed" and "Dreams", he'd soon see his ass. ;P

    You and I both know you will get this message. I wasn't flaming you either, don't really know where you got that idea from. Anyways, if you care so much about your grammar and the people telling you to correct it, maybe you need something better to do. LOL and i thought u normally check what u type so people don't Flame u over youtube multiple times?
