Lyrics:
Turn the lights down let me think clearly Everything is such a blur these days Made the right sound
Finally you hear me
Think I’m feeling ok
But it’s so hard to grasp the changes It’s so hard to find my pride
Diving deeper into madness Anything it takes to feel alive
Well we can’t go back
We don’t know where to begin
All the life drains out
We can’t try making amends
Even though I’m trying my best doing all I can
As you might have guessed
I don’t know how to pretend
I can’t accept that the past is dead
Open up now give me some feeling Took a chance threw it all away
It’s a wreck now nobody’s healing How the hell can I stay
When it’s so hard to grasp the changes It’s so hard to find my pride
Diving deeper into madness
Anything it takes to feel alive
I can’t accept that the past is dead

I'm in a depression right now, and the words: Even though I'm trying my best Doing all I can As you might have guessed I don't know how to pretend I can't accept that the past is dead Beats me so hard. This idea remembers me when other people say to me: you should accept the things that have happened to you and get over it, it's so hard living like nothing bad has you lived.

Couldn't agree more. Caleb is probably past the point of talking about his alcoholism, his experiences with Attack Attack, and so forth. So where is there to go from here? All bands/artists change. They can't go back to that sound unless they had a reason to, but even then, it's still not the same. Caleb, nor the rest of Beartooth, live there anymore. "The Past Is Dead" could very well be a sign off to the music they've created.
