Escape the Fate - Breaking Me Down (Audio Stream)

[@potato_0o]

Lyrics You used to be so fearless You used to be so strong What ever happened to the one that could do no wrong? How did you get so careless? How did you get so numb? Are you the only liar, running from I wish that I could hate you I wish that I could start by cutting you out 'Cause when I look in your eye I know I'm watching you drown I wish that I could save you I wish that I could start by cutting you out 'Cause when I look in your eyes I know deep inside they're holding you up Holding you up is breaking me down You don't gotta be perfect You're not too far gone But if you can't help yourself Then you won't move on The world's not out of focus It's just what you've become Don't you see you're the liar, running from I wish that I could hate you I wish that I could start by cutting you out 'Cause when I look in your eye I know I'm watching you drown I wish that I could save you I wish that I could start by cutting you out 'Cause when I look in your eyes I know deep inside they're holding you up Holding you up is breaking me down I wish that I could hate you I wish that I could start by cutting you out 'Cause when I look in your eye I know I'm watching you drown I wish that I could save you I wish that I could start by cutting you out 'Cause when I look in your eyes I know deep inside they're holding you up Holding you up is breaking me down

Favorite song from them now besides remember every scar

[@PainfulSin2811170]

this goes out to my ex of 3 years, who chose to run everytime things got difficult instead of working on it together, and my mistake that led to her turning to a self-destructive path and not realizing how much I regretted what I did, and tried to prove to her that i changed, but all I see now is a shattered soul, running again, medicated and falling. I'll always love you sasha. Til the end of days. I will find you in our next life. I hope one day you can open your heart again.

[@mzftmorons7266]

This song speaks to me differently today. I'm not entirely sure why. When I listen to this song, I see myself in both sides of the story. I'm the person I wish I could get out of the suffering. I tell myself that things won't change unless I make it so but it doesn't seem to make me want to do so. I have moments where I'm in incredible emotional pain and I'm not entirely sure why at times. I was born with ADHD and the memory aspect drives me insane so I tell myself perhaps I just forgot the reason and the emotion still remains. I tell myself to just push past it and keep trying harder and harder to succeed. This song gives me a shimmer of hope every now and then.

[@sfextraeffects1239]

All of the feelings I feel from listening to this song make my spine tingle and my goosebumps tremble. These lyrics are too real..

[@PrettyBirdRio]

This song is every relationship/friendship I've ever tried to hang onto. Just goes to show.. when you try to care about someone more than you care about yourself, it f**ks you over. Every. Damn. Time.

[@kevinsnyder1785]

[@anamarie1407]

They have not failed me with a single song 💟 always a fan.

[@MichaelMyers9092_]

This is an amazing song. What's it about? Or who is it about?

[@samwhitehead2369]

+Evan Faraday Etf just writes music you can relate to. No one specific, unless it is about the time Max Green was struggling with drugs. It was hard on Craig because they are best friends. Or possibly about Monte because he is not the person he used to be. Kind of a jerk now. Considering he was in the band from the beginning, it's probably tough to loose him as a friend.

[@karimabdelkarim6437]

Actually there's a video here on Louder Noise where Craig says that their friends from Papa Roach sent them the song and when they read it, they HAD to put it in this album! and Robert said it's about all the people we love but want to hate because it's hurting them, and about all the people we love but also wanna hate because they drag and pull us down!

[@commandojackiemichel3082]

+Sandman 15 you talk about max green ?

[@commandojackiemichel3082]

ah ok green left the band because he addict to drugs and he have made his own band violent new breed

[@MzBra66]

+Kariiim Rival good to know :) & thats pretty awesome.

[@bunnystudios1966]

[@allrizonetv4470]

คนไทยรู้ใหมว่าความหมายดีแค่ไหน

[@retrocobra2744]

not to many people go for the meaning behind the song anymore...

[@ikonbtsbb5076]

c:

[@nomanno9867]

Since when did ETF become Papa Roach?

[@monkeybusiness8741]

+NoMan No Funny thing is, Papa Roach actually sent them this song so it's not surprising that it sounds like them.

[@nomanno9867]

+MonkeyBusiness 87 I'd rather hear Papa Roach perform it instead of ETF trying to be like another band. This entire album is ETF trying to be everything but themselves. It's pathetic. Sell outssss.

[@monkeybusiness8741]

NoMan No I do wish they would have put more of an ETF-feel to it instead of keeping it mostly Papa Roach but it turned out well enough and I enjoyed it. They are trying to find something that works since they just lost two guys that pretty much wrote everything music-wise since This War Is Ours, that's a massive blow to a band, believe me. I've been there more than once in my own bands. It's an enjoyable album, and I like it, but I do agree that it feels like different bands just with Craig on vocals. The only song that felt like TWIO-post was Alive in my opinion. I'm not surprised at the experimentation given the fact that Monte is gone, the sound he created for them made them stand out but nothing stays the same forever, this is a needed album to find something that works given the creative gap left by Monte. The next album will probably be more consistent in style given how experimental and all over the place this was.

[@bernardkobner2056]

I'm pretty sure the vocalist of papa roach co-wrote the song...

[@monkeybusiness8741]

+Bernie Kobner P.Roach wrote the song for the most part and gave ETF the song if I remember correctly.

[@tomastroncos4943]

ETF MUST DISAPPEAR LIKE A BAND FOR THESE REASONS. 1) THEY FELL INTO ROUTINE 2) THE ORIGINAL FORMATION WAS BROKEN , THE DRUMMER IS THE ONLY EXCEPTION 3) CRAIG MABBIT NEED TO BE IN FORM, NOW HE'S A FATHER AND NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE. 4) THIS KIND OF MUSIC IS TO TEENAGERS, THEY'RE SO ... LOOK LIKE A PARENTS 5) I HEAR THAT BAND 10 YEARS AGO AND NOW I THINK THEY MUST CHOOSE ANOTHER PATH

[@craiyorogers4451]

Shut just honestly shut up

[@montelavey1425]

All of your points are shit other than the first one.

[@audkyrie]

the mixing here is bad should be another reason
