Sunrise
wake up stand up look into
Red eyes
Stayed up all night thinking of
Reasons why
I can't feel your skin
Is this plaguing your brain?
Is this plaguing your brain?
Couldn't brace yourself in the morphine hallway
lying on the ground with a heart as a ball and chain
message to the bird I know your wings will be fine
spread them on the floor, learning to heal will take time
Close the hatch and lock us inside (Now breath in wide I'll forgive you later)
Close the hatch and lock us inside (Come on it's time just stand aside)
All these reasons why
I am reaching wide
I am sticking to all these one liners
and all this means
and all I have to say
Stay till my word
Because I can send you to the side
Cut off these ties
till this is why
we were holding to one night
breathe in without love
hear me form these lines
falling in love
I have been reading lies.
Watch this turn to dust
I won't know when you've fallen
Now it all takes shape
I won't go until you follow
Couldn't brace yourself in the morphine hallway
lying on the ground with a heart as a ball and chain
message to the bird I know your wings will be fine
spread them on the floor, learning to heal will take time
I don't even get the movie
cold ice feels so soothing
I don't even get the movie
cold ice feels so soothing
Watch this turn to dust
I won't know when you've fallen
Now it all takes shape
I won't go until you follow
I don't feel anything, stuck in the passing lane
I don't feel anything, stuck in the passing lane
Break, wait, stop, back off the bitch
Break, wait, stop, back off the bitch
Break, wait, stop, back off the bitch
Break, wait, stop, back off the bitch
Block out the sound of the police beckoning
duck in the back and the lights will shut off again
You can go for it just don't ignore it
ration the wine, laughing in revelry
You can go for it just don't ignore it
caution I'm drugged, we'll here comes the symphony
the rapist gives God a hug.
we were privileged to grow up on this , feel bad for anyone who can’t comprehend and appreciate this band
Hell yeah dude
Yup
Facts
Fr, been listening to them since I was 13 or 14 and I'm 21 now and this band means the world to me. Their music has helped me through so much and I just cant express my love and admiration for them enough😩🖤
I’m new to the fanbase. This isn’t my typical stuff but this is really good! Jonny and Jon are clearly very talented vocalists.
This era of Jonny Craig is fucking phenomenal.
His voice in this record is perfection.
best singer ever existed.
indeed
@@ayhanozcan8550 nah doubt that, r&b Jodeci group member K-Ci could give him a run for his money
yes i agree, everything that has jonny craig in it is phenomenal
Amazing singer always brings a smile on my face
I don't give a fuck what people think, this is the best fucking song they ever wrote.
so fucking true
Alex English or heat seeking are very close contenders
+the bonesauce Probably the most underrated song of DGD
+the bone sauce hear me out now, every did album i listen to (not counting acceptance speech or instant gratification) have a ton of songs to offer as the best they've written, so i say they have many best songs
+Rob Garcia dgd, best band ever
I don’t deserve these sounds I’m so thankful
I can't be the only one that loves the "you can't go for it, just don't ignore it" part at 3:52 and how it lines up with those diminished guitars, its addicting to rewinding it to that
Eargasm for sure
DGD was the first rock band I ever heard implement R&B influences and goddamn was it beautiful. There will never be anything like this ever again.
Issues
Stella Diai Nope.
Stella Diai he did say first, didn't he?
***** That's a difficult thing to claim if you listen to their song structure from their first two very influential albums. I can point to at least 3 songs in WISIRO where the music meter is slowed to give it a more bluesy sound that allows lyrics to be sung instead of belted or screamed like the genre was used to. You can find this in "It's safe to say..." and this song as well. From what I remember Will saying in an interview, he would compose the song and Jonny would write melodies into them. So the band made it possible to get the R&B sound out of Jonny's singing style. Since Jonny left, the band stopped writing like this. This is also evident in Jonny's change in singing styles. I always think the last time he really wrote an inspiring bit was in "She makes dirty words sound pretty"
*****
_"they pretty much HAD to write how they did for it to sound good."_
Er, no.. All the vocals are written after instrumentals, so the songs weren't structured entirely for Jonny's style. Jonny just applied his style to the instrumentals. DGD is just always changing their sound, it had nothing to do with Jonny.
man i love that i grew up with this
This is song nails it dude. It's so depressing but it makes me feel so motivated to be better. I was just a teenager when these guys came out and now I'm almost 30 still jammin with it.
You said it best. Timeless
Same!! Ugh all the feels with this music. Nothing like it!!
Still here!
I’m the same age as you and feel the exact same age! That 2008 music just hits different. Atreyu, underoath, and Hawthorne heights were the first bands I found as a young boi
Best DGD Song of All Time. I still get goosebumps. The song structure is magnificent, with so much build-up that I still cannot handle. The drum cadence mirroring the ticking of a rising rollercoaster, and at the top you can't help but scream.
3:42 is def a rollercoaster
The best song ever. My endorphins are on fire every time it plays! His voice and the drums are godly
Matt Mingus and Will Swan crafted something truly beautiful in this
I pray to god they never leave DGD
they are the backbone of dgd
RIP Tony Sienna i loved you like a brother and can't thank you enough for introducing me to such a great band. Until we meet again bro
Tony Catalfamo rip tony.
Killing me man condolences
For some reason the way Jonny's vocals mix with the guitar at 3:53 - 4:02 always gives me chills.
Dance Gavin Dance is such an underrated band
very true
not really they were at like the top of thier genre around 08 mostly evryone i know knows them
Its whatever now, very underrated when this album was out, yes.
they're not as good without jonny imo
Nobody’s as good without Jonny
The best song they ever made.
Downtown Battle Mountain is one of my favorite albums. Claps for you guys.
best song they ever wrote, i could die twice to see them do this once live
Christian McBrayer dude I watched them play in Charlotte last year and they mostly just played the new album but they did this song and lemon meringue tie. Tillian was in line with Johnny if not better.
Damn. I really want to see them live. I've seen clips and Tillian looks like he kills it
They did this song because of the 10th anniversary of the album back in 2017. Saw it in New Jersey and no one else but like 100 people knew the lyrics because everyone knows DGD after this album.... which is mind blowing
@@hackervalleyboysau5889 I got to see them do this live last year! It was sick! I have a video on my channel if you wanna see
Best song they ever wrote was spooks!
the drumming of Matt mingus at the end is so godlike
TattedGirlsRHawt69 BRO YES
And he was 18 at the time this album released
@@Osmarbadom97 hOly FUCK, NO WAY?!? that shits insane.
Song literally makes me cry.. it's so beautiful. Going through a lot at the moment and this song makes me so happy
Andrew Herbst for 10 years I come back and forth with this song. I don't even know what to think anymore.
1:29 is, by far, the most beautiful piece from a song I have ever listened to.
SO. MUCH. EMOTION. I love this song and album
+TheOMGbeandip Jonny did a great fucking job on both DBM
I'm crying
Jonny Craig’s DGD is so under appreciated.. people love to hate on it, but for me it makes me feel something no other band makes me feel
Sameee😩 him and Kurt were the best
@@wxstednxghts omg YES, Jonny and Kurt made Dance Gavin Dance what it was, Tilian sounds like a pop singer with a regular scream band today
It's all the under 23 girls that fan over tilian or used to that overshadowed Jonny. And Jcs multiple fuck ups.
The song we own the night just happened to pop up on my feed. Just when I was going through the hardest breakup. And this song reminds me I need to heal before I get into anything again. I feel like I found this band for a reason. It's really been helping me destress so far. I'm not really into post hard core but this band is pretty bad ass. 10 out of 10 would recommend to a friend.
This song 11/10
1:54 best thing Jonny ever did
That whole part gives me chills every time. His voice is so fucking amazing.
+the bonesauce same here. i get chills
Joseph Diclaire yeah but when you isolate it, it sounds like something Sonny Moore would do a lot.
Joseph Diclaire came here looking for this comment.
doody wonder
Going through some shit after I just opened up to the girl/best friend i've had feelings for for over a year, and these lyrics are so fucking relatable. I guess it's true that you start to understand songs when you're feeling down.
But the title is sticking with me a lot. I've got to open my eyes, stop dreaming, and look forward to what else is in store for me. She's not the last person i'm going to want to be with and I can't act like she is.
Sorry for the sappiness, but i'm really high and i'm so glad I got to hear this song again.
Hows it going lol
@@izzomctorro LMFAO 4 years later hahah
6 years later..how's life looking?
Felt that bro
8 years later rip
Got me thru everything as a boy now we revisit these masterpieces as men.
These were the days...
you can go for it, just don't ignore it... who replays just that part over and over again?
Dude, yes! It's one of my favorite parts. ^~^
Guilty lol. It's also one of my favorite parts!
That fucking build up tho! 🔥🔥 1:23-1:57 is jonny at his peak.
100% facts
Best run he ever did
Takes me back to my 09 years in high school, The young romantic days. DGD; lovely.
This songs so beautiful it manages to make me feel every emotion at once.
That vocal range...
That voice.
I'm still listening to this and others to this day... Simply Amazing
10 years later and I still get chills.
excellent drummer
the Legit ladies and gentlerobots I present to you Matthew Mingus
It's 2024 and this song still has only 1.7m views? WHY?!
Of Machines - Things too Visible to See only has 699k views which is the real tragedy given that whole Of Machines album is as legendary as the JC DGD and Emarosa albums.
They never get enough credit for being a phenomenal band, so many different music styles and vocals, DON'T MESS WITH THE MESS!
Right!! I probably contributed a good 100k
Not enough people have opened their eyes and/or looked north
I listen to this song on a daily basis 🎉
This is truly my favourite band of all time
Dude, his voice is just so damn amazing...
Ever song Jonny touches is gold
3:53 oh my god i fucking love this part its my favorite part of this song and i wish it lasted longerrrerererererererererererererereeerrrrreeeeeerrrrrerrrr
I KNOW RIGHT
SAME
Best song I ever heard in a very long time.
I hope Jonny knows that the vocals he put in his catalog from this band are legend lol
Unequivocally the greatest band of all time 🖤🔥
some of their finest stuff right here
Best song they did
This bands helped me throught some tuff times. hell yes they have given me a faith. i know its weird but the metaphorical and misleading lyrics are haunting and amazing. ontop of an awesome screamer and singer. its beautiful
What's great about Dance Gavin Dance is the fact that they can put everything together. If matt had some pots and pans, will had a cardboard guitar with ghetto ass nylon strings, and Jon and jonny got sick, they'd STILL find a way to put everything together into something that sounded beautiful. That is their gift. That's why they can make the music they do.
I am in love with this song.
Yup. one of the many positive side effects of this song.
How I've missed this band..Ugh.
Jonny Craig made it great, now Tillman is alright but he will never be as good as JC
+Jordan Davis ugh damn auto correct tillian*

Why the fuck do I only find good stuff like this 8 years after the fact. listened to this song about 60 times this week
10 years later still listening to their albums almost everyday. it never stops being amazing.
Good for you bro, welcome
This was of my best friends favorite songs on this album. R.I.P Debs
Favorite song of all time.
This is probably my favorite song by Dgd. I get choked up every time I listen it.
Happy to hear some real music.
I know right ?
yasssss
drapedupTRiPdout hahahahahaha the fuck is wrong with you ? XD
it was just a crude exaggerated mock to the previous comment calm down E de haha doesn't make it any less true tho it would be the best vocal cover she would've ever heard considering the circumstances
What's 'real' music? Is there such thing as 'fake' music? WHAT?!
Still madly in love with Dance Gavin Dance & their old work will forever live in my heart 🖤🤘🏼
Never stopped loving this song
It’s nice to see this song finally getting the recognition and spread it deserves. My crush and friend in middle school her cousin is the guy with the Afro who does the screams and she was like check out my cousins band and haven’t looked back ever since these guys rock! Central Valley Represent :p
His names will swan. Thats so cool tho, id love to meet someone whos related to these gods
put some respect on his name
Story is Bullshit.
Jon Mess does the screams in this song and album, Will Swan only screams on the album Happiness
this band is so underrated. They have a sound that is so unique. You know when DGD is playing cause there lyrics are so deep
Drums are muchos perfectos in this song
1:00 - 2:20 🔥💧
Lembro quando eu escutei a primeira vez essa música e até hoje eu não tenho palavras para descrever esse trecho.
Pra mim até hoje uma das melhores músicas, se não a melhor.
Do caralho demais... 12 anos que essa obra-prima foi lançada.
@@JohnM89 escuto Dance Gavin Dance a 3 anos desde que conheci, e só fui dar uma olhada nos antigos trabalhos agora... Caralho, como eu não ouvi antes, é puro sinônimo de perfeição.
@@youarefinished Esse album, What Ever I Say Is Royal Ocean e o projeto paralelo chamado Secret Band são a cereja do bolo do DGD. Bom saber que tem gente conhecendo essa obra prima.
@@dissimulado ainda tô aqui, firme, forte, e apaixonado pelos trabalho do Jonny Craig no dgd. 💪
Never gets old. Ever.
Crazy how I listened to this song to get through heartbreak in high school & yet here I am a grown ass adult still getting emotional to this song lol. Love old DGD
1:50 This is one of the best build-ups in any song, ever.
dgd is for every generation remember johnny was making music for himself throughout his life and he's about 30ish i guess. his music will never die
i swear, that chorus is THE greatest thing that I have EVER heard
I don't care, this will ALWAYS be my favorite Dance Gavin Dance song.
that riff gives me goosebumps!
8 years later... still hits the feels
I don't care what anyone says, this was a way better album than Acceptance Speech, IG, and Mothership. This is one my favorite DGD songs of all time.
This band at this stage was untouchable. They still are...in my mind.
Agreed💯
couldn't brace yourself in the morphine hallway
lying on the ground with a heart as a ball and chain
message to the bird, I know your wings will be fine
spread em on the floor, learning to heal will take time
best part lyrically
Agreed, especially depending on if you’ve been through that in life. Currently working on turning these lyrics into a tattoo odea
Ladies and gentleman, THIS is why DGD kicks ass. I mean, COME ON. THIS SONG. HOLY CRAP. EVERYTHING. PERFECT. I CAN'T EVEN DEAL.
I will take this song over lemon meringue tie any day although lemon meringue tie is still quite bad ass
Exactly. I wish this was the second song on Tree City sessions instead of LMT.
Everyone has their own opinion but I respectfully disagree with yours. Lemon Meringue Tie had that swag boi
completely agree
tbh I doubt tilian can do it >___> has he sung it before?
Brittany Caron I doubt it, but how do you think he did these songs? Tilian studied and practiced the fuck out of the songs.
I'm telling double kick while singing is going on is the most powerful thing in the world 😃
post hardcore, baby!
This shit will never not give me gosebumps!!!! 😍😍😍 Fuck I miss Jonny in this band so much 😩 Tilian & Kurt are both amazing & I love them to death but Jonny just fit their sound so perfectly & will always be my favorite frontman 💕💕
This song is truly a work of Art
Broo, I couldn't even pick a song of this album because they are all so fucking great. The lyrics are beautiful
Nostalgia hits hard with this one ❤
Forgot how insanely amazing these guys are! Will forever love this music!
This song reminds me of my last year of high school; all the emotions I was feeling towards the end of the year...
I wish that ending would just go on forever and ever. Gosh it was just wonderful.
Wow someone else appreciates colors. Keep spreading the word.
Seeing them perform live next month. Counting down the days!
Still my favorite song .
I love this song 💯
My favorite album of all time.
Bass sounds so good in this song
I love this whole album but this might be my fav song on it.. its deff my favorite jonny craig dgd song..
Easily one of my favorite songs from DGD and what got me to like them.
dgd has been my favorite band since 2008 probably and I have existential crisis listening to these songs. ... 10
years of crisis
I feel you
Squint Your Eyes and Gaze Eastward
Strain your prying orbs and overlook Northwest
Open one eye and gaze weast.
rwinftw Open the minds eye and peek south north
Dillbert open the 4th eye and look ominously northwestsouth
rwinftw Blink your face testicle and peer nestwestseuth
Highly underrated song from them
absolutely!
BtBAM is literally the greatest band that there ever has been or will ever be, and Colors is their best cd. I've listened to the cd about 1000 times, and I just recently bought the Live version so I could watch the DVD.
Best. Album. Ever. Can't wait for DBM 2
Fire asf dawg
first song i listened to in 2014
man that guitar riff gives me chills every time! brings a tier to the eye...
This comment has been here for seven years, and no one corrected your spelling? Kids these days...
So do I. But I also love the new dgd and everything in between.
Happy ten years
Everything about this song is so right!
I miss these days haha wow.
best song ever
