LYRICS:
Count me out
Speak what your eyes aren’t saying
Your fears in a vice
Hope lost and medicated
Maybe this time you’re not worth saving
Tearing the seams of the sky
I feel the weight of all the worst you put me through
I feel my fate is sealed and I refuse to lose
I swore I saw a ghost when I looked like that
I know you’ll break in two when you can’t fight back
You thought you’d push me out
I’ll let myself back in
This is the last time I’ll watch you fail
Way over your head
Every direction was a question to the fault of your own hands
That’s not what you said
That’s no how you bled
Fear the day you don’t wake up chalked up left for dead
I’ve been the saint you want
I gave it all to you
I sacrificed my conscience
So far I lost it
I stand here bulletproof
I swore I saw a ghost when I looked like that
I know you’ll break in two when you can’t fight back
You thought you’d push me out
I’ll let myself back in
This is the last time I’ll watch you fail
Walls, break the walls
Don’t you ever forget
Walls will fall
Yeah, you’ll live in regret
Wall, break the walls
You can play your pretend
Walls will fall
Turn a setback into a setup
I swore I saw a ghost when I looked like that
I know you’ll break in two when you can’t fight back
You thought you’d push me out
I’ll let myself back in
This is the last time I’ll watch you
This is the last time
This is the last time
I swore I saw a ghost when I looked like that
I know you’ll break in two when you can’t fight back
You thought you’d push me out
I’ll let myself back in
This is the last time I’ll watch you fail
Walls, break the walls
Walls will fall

[@a_storm_inside7026]

I know that this singer (not og lineup) somehow aquired the rights to the name so basically there are 2 a skylit drives? Well before jordan cam back and passed away anyway RIP.. so idk what going on with the original lineup after jag left and since 2023... its a mess.. basically this doesnt really mean they came back because its not the original lineup at all but jag aquired the right to the name

[@a_storm_inside7026]

Edit: jordan left and jag started eith a skylit drive but the band broke up in 2017... in 2022 or 23 the og lineup cam bavk for an anniversary tour with jordan blake.. rumor is jag noticed this then turned his then bands name from signals to a skylit drive and dropped a song they wrote as signals with a skylit drives name. ... didnt skip a beat after jordan died.. kind of a shit situation

[@a_storm_inside7026]

But i still listen to them. I dont hate.. just find it confusing and unfortunate

[@JarrodF7405]

​@a_storm_inside7026 yeah your right jag doesn't have a right to the name he only toured 10 years with the band and released 5 albums with them. Compared to the original singer who recorded an ep then left the band lol. 😅 jag has put years into the band he deserves the rights to the name. Compared to the past singer. I don't know why people are surprised.

What it's so different and sounds like he's straining himself. That's not the Jag I grew up with

[@Tuka_angel]

@@Keithhatesy0unothing changed fam he's been on so many tours he probably needed a break dude let him cook I believe in jag

[@julianlambeth177]

@@Keithhatesy0uvoice is just maturing as the years go on, he’ll still always sound like Jag tho.

[@Tonicshades]

⁠@@Keithhatesy0u He is definitely straining his vocal cords to hit highs again, but he has two options in my opinion, get a vocal coach to fix the strain or lower his pitch range like he did with the Rise album, definitely one of my favorite vocalists, but his range is suffering, also the mix doesn't help either, they need a better sounder engineer, the low ends are too much and the vocals need more reverb. The unclean vocals need more distortion and layers and are slightly delayed in some parts of the song. Once those are fixed they'll be solid.

[@TippyJohnson]

I think Jag is firing shots at "Original ASD" in these lyrics 😮😂

[@itsCurtisAvila]

Jag is ass.

[@TheLowest]

ns, he's dwelling on something that happened like 4 years ago. Considering they lost their vocalist recently, his little bitter bit of input is really tasteless and crap. Jag is by far one of the most talentless musicians i think I've ever seen, his lyrics are ass and his once nice voice is nasally awful and strained.

[@justinkim5940]

Good God This shit is so bad 😂😂😂😂😂

[@nonoahcormier548]

Thts cool u feel tht way but I hate to burst ur bubble jag Is doing fine the screamer is doing fine the drummer is killing it. Now if u liked asd back than than this is fine I'm not gonna say perfect but fine ur tripping as far as I'm concerned. But thts ur opinion it's almost like ur not a fan ever. So just had to say bro srry but this is honestly better than sucker right I u have heard it.... like this is a good and right direction for now bro. Stop hating and mayb let someone cook u know its one new song tht isn't terrible if anything u can say generic and it's fine cause old songs from most bands we loved back than are classic for us but now just generic as well so come on. Let us have hope please it's not that bad nd we both know tht we have all heard worse right like be fair not a dick.

Song is great. The mixing and mastering could be better.

[@TippyJohnson]

Agreed. Melody is great, lyrics are great, guitars and screaming are great, but Jag needed to use another vocal take. He needs to use more of his head voice on the higher notes, like he's done on some of the recent live stuff.
