Lyrics:
If I gave you pretty enough words.
Could you paint a picture of us that works.
An emphasis on function rather than design.
Aren't you tired cause I will carry you, on a broken back
And blown out knees, I have been where you are for a while...
Aren't you tired of being weak?
Such rage that you could scream. All the stars right out of the sky
And destroy the prettiest starry night. every evening that I die.
I am exhumed just a little less human and a lot more bitter and cold.
I am exhumed... just a little less human...
A lot more bitter and cold...

Music is the closest thing we have to a time machine. It's amazing how the power of sound can instantly take you back to a time and place in your past. Nostalgia is both a mix of happy and sad emotions. Happy to have lived and remember those moments in your life, but sad that everyday they slip further and further away.

[@stayingshredded]

Couldn't have said it any better 👍

[@presentprogressivefuturepe2968]

Well put. You could even extrapolate that thought to anything sensory - it need not only be music, but any sound, smell, sight, sensation, or taste. Marcel Proust expresses something similiar in 'In Search of Lost Time'. For him, as an adult, it is drinking tea and eating a madeleine (forever known as the madeliene moment) that evoke forgotten memories of a happy childhood: "The past is hidden somewhere outside the realm, beyond the reach of intellect, in some material object (in the sensation which that material object will give us) which we do not suspect. And as for that object, it depends on chance whether we come upon it or not before we ourselves must die."

[@Max_Jacob]

You know this comment was written during 3:27

[@oasiscultivation2204]

Don’t ever be sad for good days come and gone. Be sad for those who never have good days. Live to hold life in your hand like a flame, bright enough to fill your life with joy but not so hot to burn yourself. Life is a balance, don’t ever think bad times will dominate your life. They are a moment to live past and enjoy after they’re gone. Yes I said bad times will become a moment of joy after you live through them.

Been listening to then since I was 12 I heard Bleeding mascara and loved it. I am now 29 and still listen to them I saw them live years ago with Avenged sevenfold and bullet for my valentine in Asbury NJ was an awesome concert.

[@juderocks5]

I would have LOVED to go to that show. I was in Northern VA at the time, so I would've made it out. I'm 29 now too, and those were my favorite bands back then. That era was peak metal in pretty much every genre for me (aside from Deathcore because Lorna is killing the game). It's a bit ironic, I was playing a ton of shows back then, but since I still lived with my parents, they had total control over where I could go. I didn't see my first concert until I was 19 and had already played hundreds of my own. All the bands growing up and changing leaves a strange, bittersweet nostalgia feeling, like something is missing and hasn't really been replaced all the way.

"This is drawing on a personal experience I had with someone. I kind of embellished it to form the song. In a way the song could be about true love 'cause I will carry you on a broken back and blown out wings... 'live, love, burn, die' says it all. We live, we love, we burn with passion and desire for life and then we die. The key is to burn, to really live, experience life, feel passionate about something and give your whole being to it. Whether it's writing music, making love or painting. If you're gonna do it, do it with passion. The word burn is sort of a metaphor for true unadulterated passion." -Alex Varkatzas This is what the song is about.....you know. Your passion. Like what all music should be about. It looks like people have forgotten music isn't about US it's about how we can relate to it. If you can't relate to the song. Move on. If you can great. enjoy it. If you complain about how you don't like the song because you don't understand it. it's like complaining because you can't solve a math problem for the same reason. Oh and if you hate that it's not your style. Well.....Don't listen to it. It's kinda like Jail in a funny way. If you don't wanna go there don't do bad things. If you don't wanna hear this music. Don't listen to it. Pretty simple.

I have pictures with both Alex and Brandon. I remember being 15 and finding out about Atreyu. Their look dragged me in but their catchy choruses and heavy melodies really kept me intrigued.

[@nickolastasker2612]

Most pleasing vocals In the course, and delighted to admit that the drummer has something good to the inner ear.

2007 Taste of Chaos tour. I hesitated to jump in the mosh pit because of a 350lb 6'7" dude wearing a shirt that said "Jesus is a cunt" was literally picking people up and throwing them.

[@jinxxandava8489]

[@masochisticcupcake6287]

@@MrGoldenMoose lol you could go to their concert at 16 I don't believe there was a age limit

[@mikecfl]

I remember listening to this while getting my diapers changed and having my first cigarette

[@Allyourbase1990]

Man this was one of the first metal albums I heard back in the mid 2000s . This song has always been my favorite off this album . The nostalgia of high school

[@amcalister6439]

I found this gem back in middle school on the music videos they had. Im so happy to have seen all the bands im sure the generation after me can appreciate.❤

[@Jethco]

Atreyu has changed my life! I try listening to someone else after I've listen to all of the Atreyu albums I have but when I get a little into the first song of whoever else I can't help but think to myself, "Meh, Atreyu's better" and I start my Atreyu albums all over again drumming away on my steering wheel. You guys ROCK!!!

[@maniswil2]

Try poison the well, they aren't better but around the same kinda sound but years earlier.

[@Jethco]

Thanks. I'll check'em out.

[@maniswil2]

No problem, both bands had a lasting impact from my teenage years and I would like to share it as well.

[@jeffmabus451]

Subversive Intentions Absolutely. From Autumn to Ashes, Poison the Well and 18 Visions and Atreyu all rounded out my late teens. So good

[@dukenukem5709]

Ahh From Autumn to Ashes, you're a good man Jeff

[@riceland1186]

Here I am...reliving my high school music days.

[@evilmotorsports5076]

I can't believe this song is nearly 20 years old. This reminds me of friends from a lifetime ago. Small club shows where you were so close that you and the band were breathing on one another. Some made it big. Others faded and became everyday Joes. I'll always remember the night I saw Atreyu's van got robbed of thousands in cash right before the show at Club Chrome in NJ and people were just throwing money onto the stage. Another funny one was where they were the openers for a local band but when they finished their set, half the crowd left.

[@BlackOpsQueen21]

Man.....this brings back memories. Use to listen to them when I was a freshman in highschool. 2003. Love this song. Hanging out at the wall with just metal heads, goths and punkers. Miss those days so much. Id love to go back.

[@RealMexFoodShouldntGiveUDrrhea]

Aw, shit. This reminds me of waking up at 5:30 every morning because my sister would get ready for high school so early and she’s play this. I’d just lay in bed listening and kinda sleeping 😂

[@huliahoop5662]

Real Mexican Food Shouldn't Give You Diarrhea yesss

[@Enigma77Reviews]

Omg I miss Atreyu this Atreyu this was one of my Fav I remember seeing them and they performed this on stage x

[@FoolishPrince]

That solo at the end is the only reason i ever listened to this song... So beautiful! Sometimes words aren't needed

[@behindtheseyes1]

Love the drummers voice. The balance oh his voice and the screaming really added a unique element and set them appart.

[@jasonduncan7733]

You must not be familiar with Metalcore....it was oversaturated as hell

[@midwestmike2196]

2019 where we at. Man this brings back memories

[@onlyhappywhenitrains92]

Still one of my favorite songs!!

[@sectorseven07]

This song has been stuck in my fucking head for 20 years

[@jonellereyes6293]

Good memories, man.

[@tokiwartooth664]

I'm in my mid 30s and i remember this album and the first time i heard it. My group of friends and i were obsessed. Good bands in the early 2000s (2000-2005) before the asking Alexandria cringe bands ruined it all.

[@johnkeii]

fully agreed. First concert I went to was Atreyu, oddly enough

[@Cypher_Moonchild]

Agree!!! Those bands were so Emo 😨

[@ijalriadi2329]

"Lip Gloss And Black" If I gave you pretty enough words. Could you paint a picture of us that works. An emphasis on function rather than design. Aren't you tired cause I will carry you, on a broken back And blown out knees, I have been where you are for a while... Aren't you tired of being weak? Such rage that you could scream. All the stars right out of the sky And destroy the prettiest starry night. every evening that I die. I am exhumed just a little less human and a lot more bitter and cold. [x3] I am exhumed... just a little less human... A lot more bitter and cold... [repeating] After all these images of pain, have cut right through you, I will kiss every scar, and weep you are not alone... Then I'll show you that place in my chest where my heart still tries to beat, it sets us apart. Aren't you tired of being weak? Such rage that you could scream. All the stars right out of the sky And destroy the prettiest starry night. every evening that I die Live! love! Burn! Die! [x4]

[@notmyhandle88]

Headbangers Ball, gone but never forgotten

[@ellg5278]

I always thought that girl was cute. I loved this album, I still have the cd in my cd case somewhere

[@xthisisabsolutionx]

Takes me back to 2006 :)))

[@edwinsosachi6585]

asi es!! buenos recuerdos

[@yugen]

Brings me back to 2002-2003, when I saw them play with Avenged Sevenfold at Reed College. Sold out show, 60 person capacity :) Then I saw them at Nocturnal, personally grabbed both of Alex's hands to help him up after he stage dived and was on the floor.

[@JCT747]

Takes me back to MySpace

[@ericsaputra1956]

2006 is the best year !!!!

[@falcontriplets831]

Check out the metalcore band “it dies today “, you won’t be disappointed.

[@shiyhai]

2019 still watching..

[@oigrrrl805]

I still love these songs today, 14 years later. The lyrics are more relatable now that I’m older. “Aren’t you tired of being weak such rage that you could scream”, feels personal to me after a recent situation where I regret not standing up for myself. I haven’t kept up with them after 2007 so I’m about to go check out their more recent albums.

[@xKneeDeepInBloodx]

This song saved my life a few years ago. Just that opening line, i couldn't put it into better words. Coming back and listening to this song just made me break haha. This song heals me even now just after a break up with my girl. Feel The music people...
