Crown The Empire - Menace (Live Video)

iTUNES: smarturl.it/cte...
MERCH: riserecords.mer...
Someday, in this dark place
One will step into the light
And expose you for what you really are
Why am I the one who just keeps on running
Why am I surrounded by shadows of my doubt?
I search for some sort of solace
But I am a man with no light to guide me out
Why must I run
Why must I hide
I'd rather be living in hell
Than never have lived with nothing to tell
So when you end up on your own
With just your pillow to hold tight
Please know
There's no reason to be afraid
Cause if they black out the sun
And your blood turns to dust
I'll follow you into your grave
A menace a monster
The thing that haunts your dreams
A nightmare, my comfort
I'll thrive on all your tears
I don't know what you take me for
Why must I run
Why must I hide
I'd rather be living in hell
Than never have lived with nothing to tell
So when you end up on your own
With just your pillow to hold tight
Please know
There's no reason to be afraid
Cuz if they black out the sun
And your blood turns to dust
I'll follow you into your grave
So when you're shattered and you're broke
With out someone to hold on to
Just know I'll always be close there behind
And if you're able to love
When's all said and done
Than I swear well all be fine
This won't be my last breath
You can't take my life away
You're just a worthless
good for nothing fuck
Why must I run
Why must I hide
I'd rather be living in hell
Than never have lived with nothing to tell
So when you end up on your own
With just your pillow to hold tight
Please know
There's no reason to be afraid
Cuz if they black out the sun
And your blood turns to dust
I'll follow you into your grave
So when you're shattered and you're broke
With out someone to hold on to
Just know I'll always be close there behind
And if you're able to love
When's all said and done
Than I swear well all be fine

[@ping6171]

"So when you're shattered and you're broke With out someone to hold on to Just know I'll always be close there behind And if you're able to love When's all said and done Than I swear well all be fine" ... Not a minute later: "You're just a worthless good for nothing fuck" Ah music, I love you so.

[@VexReacts137]

Music like this, without a doubt, is helping someone somewhere through battles they face daily. Amazing lyrics!

[@rileypinette6546]

Tia Tidwell it helps me

[@wytch5386]

8 years ago and this song is still a masterpiece 👌🏻

[@BADphot0graphy]

Good music never dies

[@kamaral3923]

I love how I'm so used to listening to CTE that i can understand all of David's screams. And then i show CTE to my friends and they look at me like ???? All i can hear is static and screaming. and I'm like ???? All i hear is heart, soul and lyrics.

[@shaneoughton652]

Ya now when I ask what to play I get "anything but screamo"

[@kamaral3923]

shane oughton thats a sad life

[@juicyfruit1210]

[@peachyybri]

+Kianni Bradshaw so true LMAO

[@kcsanson4216]

K Amaral the comment of life

[@Grimm_b312]

These lyrics really get to me man. It reminds me of when I was in the hospital battling cancer last year

[@bhapples2291]

Damn. What cancer?

[@Grimm_b312]

[@segalondon0779]

Rashida S 2018

[@Skizzle7588]

All of their songs are so perfect

[@odamanagashi]

the Re-Issue of limitless is not good ):

[@Skizzle7588]

The Re-Issue of Johnny Ringo isnt good to me. And most of the other songs off their EP they re did. I don't understand why they did that, especially to Lead Me Out of The Dark *****

[@shawnbuchanan3041]

Lead me out of the dark was never redone.

[@Skizzle7588]

It was on The Fallout Deluxe Shawn Buchanan

[@Gingawhitus]

Skizzle7588 but it's the same version as the EP, they never redid it

[@josephstigall7694]

This is probably my favorite song by these guys right now. So beautiful..............

[@jordanhuff2422]

Band goals Have everyone head bang at the exact same time in unison........Have everyone so hyped and intense theyre sweaty AF........... have atleast one person crowd surf........one person escorted by security

[@bryceyoungwolfe5016]

It’s 2021, it feels like yesterday I was in study hall listening to this while doodling and day dreaming. Little did I know 8 years later I would become a husband and a father. I cherish the moments I spent listening to this years ago and will cherish the moments I’ll make listening to this now.

[@kayrusso8573]

DAMN CTE gets HYPED on stage

[@CrownTheEmpire]

It wasn't! Johnny Ringo was. But the film crew filmed the entire set. They used the audio from the encore in the beginning :)

[@amandahasahitlist]

This band is my life, there's no other word to describe them. Guys, keep it up you're doing a great job. Love you all x

[@metalmercerman]

I don't listen to any other band

[@adrianzormpas8920]

+Donald Martin nice music taste ^^

[@CrownTheEmpire]

[@hazeliaolivia_]

NO

[@EmeraldSogeking]

[@amberrichard8874]

Omg I never noticed

[@scarredgbz]

Natalie Moore yaaaaaas

[@AttilaGorilla]

The true gem of the album.....these guys are going places.

[@KevinJoelStudios]

That's the dream brother! Its been a long time goal to do video work for Rise (one of my favorite labels as a fan) and I'm so happy with the love this video is getting (and mad props for CTE for an amazing performance). Hopefully it leads to bigger and better things because I have tons of ideas for music videos/DVD's/Skits and so much more. Thanks so much for the support

[@mrillusive321]

I've been to their shows in abq and Andy's energy is what gets the crowd going

[@CrownTheEmpire]

You can look all over youtube :) tons of live videos

[@collaide]

This is my all-time favorite of theirs. I love the chorus

[@Vangheist]

Oh my god, my friend and I are in the front row of this show on the video, and it was on my birthday. I feel so loved.

[@irrelevant3255]

I love all of their songs!

[@ishapiang8193]

Crown The Empire is one of the best bands I know, and this is also one my fav songs :)

[@derekguay4008]

You really cant talk shit about these guys, unlike most of the bands these days. both these cats can sing FUCKING GREAT.

[@kanenorris9164]

Revisiting my emo phase with such joy and comfort, I hope everyone’s doing good and see this song as a staple of your youth as I do; been listening since 14 and I’m now 21 and I’m still Vibin with it

[@taliurbina5655]

this will forever be my favorite cte song of all time

[@CrownTheEmpire]

You guys killed it :)

[@DaviD-xp9lk]

[@SPFUSION5]

Band that looks like they are always having fun, awesome

[@ghoulbeans1997]

Double bass though! 1:32

[@epicempire2352]

Its actually the kick drum making a similar sound as the bass

[@werestressedut3554]

+EpicEmpire dude that's what he's talking about. It's called double bass pedal for the drums.

[@epicempire2352]

+We're Stressed Øut oh sorry that slipped my mind, my bad

[@werestressedut3554]

+EpicEmpire it's fine. Being a drummer, I wanted to let you know. Haha. No worries.

[@epicempire2352]

+We're Stressed Øut alright carry on then bro

[@BradleyLin960221]

The lyric is just awesome.

[@punkboimax4547]

It’s been a year since I’ve started listening to CTE and they are my favorite band

[@thanamesStubbs]

I was at this show and it was one of the best shows ever.

[@lealupick]

i agree with you, kellin is such a good singer in this band

[@bigkendizzy]

And deservedly so. Such a welcoming, fresh spin on the genre.

[@buryyourbodies1215]

God these guys are gonna be playing in front of thousands one day

[@CrownTheEmpire]

[@mamathunderthighs1084]

[@ImaEatYourFruitLoops]

These guys made the night worth livinf

[@tylerharris5353]

[@TheRiotWithinMyself]

Always Been My Favorite From The Album

[@BamfNooby]

[@DeadOnArrival777]

They are good. They just make me hear A Day to Remember.

my favorite song of this album

[@ilovelife567]

I fell in love with this song

[@jordanburgess3284]

Great song cant stop listening to any of their songs

[@jaybradlee5592]

GOD DAMMIT ID KILL TO SEE THESE GUYS >

[@nikkidarlene1994]

By far my favorite of their songs

[@radomegirly8685]

I used to be a Christian but then I became agnostic and I was terrified of death but this song and all the other CTE songs help me get over that fear I know this is kinda weird but I just wanted to put this out there

[@Thatguyagain67]

Watching these guys live is so much different the quality of the music is better here but it sounds better live

[@lowmurmer]

Saw this band a few months ago on the Take Action Tour with WCAR and The Used. Their live performance is one of the best I've ever seen. They try so hard and put so much energy and passion into their music and it's extremely exciting to scream and sing and jump and sweat along with them in the crowd.

[@myonlyhope4948]

*No words best songs ever*

[@JustinBieberLuvesMex]

listened to this after a long time. got frickin goosebumps from this cos it's so good and brought back old memories with them

[@catherinewinters8875]

Love this song so much

[@joakimherdu]

Really loving the cleans in this one

[@hashtagwack]

The intro is so bloody awesome. First song I listen to each day

[@1995coasterfreak]

I want to this tour at the st Pete date as there wasn't a barricade so every time they came to the end of the stage we'd all reach up and try to hold heir hand or touch their hair or shirt. They did such a amazing show, I miss it a lot after watching this haha!

[@1Kevin]

This deserves more views

[@griffbanik9763]

These guys make some neat sounding music

[@lambosans]

I can't believe they filmed this the night I saw them!! So awesome!!

[@rosjana4371]

[@mirandalyles2879]

This is so weird to watch. I've known a few of them before they were even a band, and now, they're here? It's so hard to comprehend. I'm proud though.

[@triofact34]

These guys deserve waaaay more credit than they get. So fucking amazing.

[@CatsDigMyFrosting]
