LYRICS
ARE YOU LYING WHEN THEY’RE ASKING IF YOU’RE OK?
ARE YOU TIRED OF DYING JUST TO FEEL SANE?
DO YOU FEEL SANE? DO YOU?
ALL THIS TALK OF DEPRESSION AND THESE ANXIETIES
RELIVING CYCLES OF PAIN AND THIS TOXICITY
AND WE CAN’T HIDE IT, YEAH WE CAN’T HIDE IT
WE’RE A LITTLE BIT HEARTLESS, AND NOW WE’RE LOSING HOPE, FINDING WAYS TO COPE
A LITTLE BIT RECKLESS, LEARNING AS WE GO, THE PAIN IS ALL WE KNOW
DOES IT FEEL LIKE YOU’VE BEEN LYING JUST TO SAVE FACE?
YOU’RE RUNNING CIRCLES ENDING UP IN THE SAME PLACE
DOES IT SEEM STRANGE?
I ALWAYS FELT LIKE I WAS DIFFERENT IN THE FIRST PLACE
THEY WANTED US TO BELIEVE THAT WE’RE A DISGRACE
AND THEY CAN’T HIDE IT, YEAH THEY CAN’T HIDE IT
WE’RE A LITTLE BIT HEARTLESS, AND NOW WE’RE LOSING HOPE, FINDING WAYS TO COPE
A LITTLE BIT RECKLESS, LEARNING AS WE GO, THE PAIN IS ALL WE KNOW
SO WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE YOU THINK?
WHY’S IT SO HARD TO ADMIT WE’RE WEAK?
ANSWERS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, SO LET IT GO OR PAIN IS ALL WE’LL KNOW
COME WITH ME, WE’LL BE FREE
COME WITH ME, WE’LL BE FREE
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?
WHAT HAVE YOU BECOME?
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?
WHAT HAVE WE BECOME?
WE’RE A LITTLE BIT HEARTLESS, AND NOW WE’RE LOSING HOPE, FINDING WAYS TO COPE
A LITTLE BIT RECKLESS, LEARNING AS WE GO, THE PAIN IS ALL WE KNOW
SO WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE YOU THINK?
WHY’S IT SO HARD TO ADMIT WE’RE WEAK?
ANSWERS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, SO LET IT GO OR PAIN IS ALL WE’LL KNOW
DO YOU FEEL FREE? DO YOU FEEL… DO YOU?

[@MiniMugenMan]

So different from his old style though, makes me wonder what happened to his voice.

[@TorcherYT]

@MiniMugenMan yes, when I heard him in Dangerkids and then switched to this group, it really seems to me that this is some kind of... another Telle? I don't know lol

[@telletwa]

Thank you for all of the love friends, 13+ years and counting. All about the connection and sharing our story along the journey of life. If you connect, amazing. If not, that’s ok too. Plenty more coming, this is easily going to be the most diverse record of our career when it’s all said and done. So excited to throw you some curveballs in 2022 =>

[@mikepoppen2859]

I love you, bub! Thank you for all the bangers and all the love you show us!

[@TheJoker8590]

Haven't you been saying that for the past 3 records now that it'll be the most "diverse" record? Not hating, just curious to see if that's your marketing catchphrase.

[@Elegies22]

The stop throwing curve balls and go back to songs like life cycles. That's what people really want.

[@4EverILoveHalloween]

Very first time I've ever heard of Word Alive is when they came to St. Petersburg Florida a few years ago, ever since then I've loved their music, even their older music 🎶

I've literally never heard of this band till starset liked one of their videos on Instagram and shared it on their stories, and I love it

We just found them earlier this year and have now become very Big fans of theirs! Every song has a different meaning and it's amazing! And got to see them in San Antonio Wed. 😎😊😁

Everyone is talking about the cleans on this song but completely ignoring those beautiful peaky screams towards the end. Man, I hope there are more moments like this on the new album.

Debatably the best Telle clean vocal performance this songer is a banger!

Thank you @The World Alive for writing this song about me. It's amazing and hit really hard.. The breakdown part totally left me speechless geez the way Telle screams What have you done, oh my god, I just want to scream that part the same way.

We need to go back to the Deceiver days, this is alright at best. The last scream was kinda cool, but I miss all of the insane shit this band used to do with their guitar work. So many fun shreds. Even the synths were sick. I feel like Real was probably the last time TWA was still a metalcore band.

[@StarCypher]

Fr, this is meh. Too many core bands are trying to copy BMTH these days. If anything, they could’ve tweaked their style a bit to be less tech, yet still sound nice (like BOO did for example).
