Don't Pray For Me
Asking Alexandria (UK) Lyrics

@MissChiefs420

vladi1Z not to mention songs used to 5 to 8 minutes

@MissChiefs420

vladi1Z not only that but originally metal songs were like 7, 8 minutes

@northwestplainswalkers6787

Thats 100 percent corect. Well said my bands 2nd albums intro was 3 min pluss ita a build up like the drop in dubstep just metal as fuck.....\m/

@shaylacovington8078

its epic.

@shandiivalentine1425

It’s the intro and what he says in the intro makes the song. If you listen to what he says “everyone sit the fuck down. alright alright I want everyone who this in a drunk piece of shit, this song goes out to you” 👌🤘

@meikasroom851

Can't lie after all these years, this album is the one I gravitate towards. My spirit is in total euphoria every time I hear it. Long live AA

@aminaaasnur

Performed this at my college gig, the vibes that the band and the audience get off this song; unreal.

@TheRichard714

YOU...PERFORMED...THIS!?!? HOLY SHIT!!!

@jacechasin1965

+Richard Arroyo AA songs are easy to play but there effective as hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!;;;;;)

@priscillamariiinn

I love this song so much, but maaannn, that intro is everything. It's so amazing

@dandiseptiadi3117

But i love you

@vinnregi4882

I remember many AA fans thinking this album was "soft" when it came out. Now with Self-Titled and Violence in contrast, this sounds like their heaviest album.
Oh how the times have changed... I delight in the irony :)

@JavierCarrera535

In my opinion AA was soft all the time

@buriedyoux7393

Javier go fuck off somewhere else you pansy boy

@natmilcur

The violence and Self titled aren't necessarily bad albums/songs. They wanted a different style, and i think the boys are doing it well. They own who they are now. It's amazing and we should be proud of them whether they still do screams and breakdowns or not.

yeah i was just thinking that coming from their new song. very deperessing.

@alexisvalerie8911

I loved this album when it first came out and I seen them when they toured in Canada

@Natei

These were the true golden days for these lads. Sad the didn't see it at the time

@daneboe654

the intro builds up tension and excitement like omg ;-;

@mrwillsopp674

Yesh, I feel the exact same way about this  xD

@johnsykes4513

oh yeah

@dipolararc4848

Like a moshpit

@7Deviations

Honestly, this is AA's best album out of all of them. Heavy mixed with great cleans

@xXIn5aneClownxX

It's my top favorite albums. It fits Danny's vocals perfectly that graspy side. If they went back to this alot of people would be happy. Yes they are grown now but put 1 more heavy album out for the boys

@xXIn5aneClownxX

@@joseguerrero4959 It just sounded so good. Not one song I had to skip. I hope they go back but I doubt that happens

@xXIn5aneClownxX

@@joseguerrero4959 Not a bad album either just throw some lows and heavy breakdowns

@musicilya6674

NO! Stand Up and Scream or Reckless and Relentless is the best album by the AA.

@jaydeelizabeth6172

i love danny so much man

@jaydeelizabeth6172

I love AA as well but I relate to danny so much as opposed to denis

@jaydeelizabeth6172

I love AA as well but I relate to danny so much as opposed to denis

@mariaperezdominguez4327

yea

@ajayyss

it's because he can't scream anymore

@ajayyss

His last shows he only sang and talked, he just can't do it anymore.

@danteardy9309

they always have a badass intro for their album omg

@pacoveze640

This song is giving me the chills, amazing intro and good ref! Dannys voice is amazing

@Farwayi

Hands down "From death to destiny" was their best album. Simply perfection!

@GamerEddie1

You must be deaf? Reckless & Relentless was by far the best overall. Not only my opinion, but a fact

@Farwayi

+GamerEddie1 Yea Reckless & Relentless was also insanely good (my second favourite album of them), all personal preference buddy. ;)

@michaelmalloy9138

+Ben Evans Danny left the band..? I hate to be that guy that says you aren't a real fan because you don't know some stupid bullshit, but its literally been so obvious you'd of had to completely avoid the band for over a year now to not get that.

@mikehawk457

+Ben Evans i believe the reason for that was because danny wanted to head the band towards their original goal:to be like the bands they looked up to for so long(old school rock bands) my guess is the other memebers didn't want that since the whole metalcore/scene kid ass music was working out for them pretty fucking well so he left and started an actual rock band.

@Chantelledunlop

+Ben Evans Danny is amazing and danny should come back, yes denis is really good, but Danny is so good (my opinion btw)

@thy_art_is_cats6860

one of my favorites off the new album

@andrewcorrente716

Yeah
Go
You're fucking crazy, if you think that I'll ever change
I am mine, I am me, I'll never change my ways
I must've a route to escape
Conduct a predetermined damnation for eternity
Damnation for eternity
I don't want you to cry, I don't even want you to care
Don't you dare, pray for me, no
There's things I bury inside, to keep away from the light
Don't you dare, pray for me
I been so fucked up for so long
And I can't keep my head up on my own
Holy fuck, why do I bother
Never gonna keep, anything
I wanted to fall down the crack
I don't give a fuck if I die today
Holy shit, I've lost my mind
Reality, is starting to unwind
Don't pray for me
I don't want you to cry, I don't even want you to care
Don't you dare, pray for me, no
There's things I bury inside, to keep away from the light
Don't you dare, pray for me
I don't want you to cry, I don't even want you to care
Don't you dare, pray for me, no
There's things I bury inside, to keep away from the light
Don't you dare, pray for me

@Kristalinkata

every time i heard in the beginning "You're fucking crazy if you think im in love with James" xD

@waft_nopiand

My currently Asking Alexandria Favourite Song❤️

@themissemilyrae

my new favorite song of the album <3

@stoplying1801

Best album of my high school days, every song was fire

@Iseemydemons

That amazing guitar intro right before danny comes in

@Iseemydemons

wut?

@x00drummer00x

+Spengebab222. Dude do you even know what your talking about? +Michael Hardemon Jr is right. Danny Worsnop made albums for Not the American Average up to From Death To Destiny and then after From Death To Destiny when it came out in August in 2014 the next year in January 2015 Danny Worsnop left and joined We Are Harlot. So the point of this comment was that Danny was in the whole album of From Death To Destiny not Dennis! So please +Spengebab222 if you going to say something specially on the internet make sure you know your facts first. Thank you

@Iseemydemons

x00drummer00x thank you

@dvdvsdvd

+x00drummer00x he didn't leave AA and join We are harlot? He was always in we are harlot as a side project. He just left AA and went to we are harlot full time. Just clarifying that lol

@x00drummer00x

+dvdvsdvd lol ik i was following that the whole time. When Danny announced he had a side project, i saw it as it was only a matter of time he was leaving AA, but thank you for clarifying +dvdvsdvd . i was pretty much trying to get that guy who commented saying that this album was Denis and i wanted him to understand no this is not Denis, that From Death To Destiny was Danny

@mefearp

this song should have OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO!

@phillipgreen4057

Those drums though! Hands down their best song and album!!!

@SatanSaves666

This was the most metal album ever! 🤘🏻

@dancerchild123

This is seriously one of my favorite songs ever

@johnhagar3069

Been listening to this forever. Saw it on the first show of the tour in wichita ks. Come back soon.

@hamishfraser4198

I love the intro to this song. Makes me feel alive.

@billyadam6595

Best Album Of Their Ever Made, Applause To Danny, Great Voice ....

@bigroom6937

+1

@billyadam6595

The Best

@theshow6097

agree

@Qekrzuv

I'm addicted to this song's intro.

@_frvn_

The intro... Danny's drunk show in seattle

@papermario8935

So heavy, especially after you see the footage

@Comeclarity5555

I love how so many were outraged by this even though anyone with a brain and the lyric book of anything he ever wrote saw this or worse coming.

@charlotteemily6624

Fran Lezbreck Ahahaha

@wassabvinix

which show?
someone give me a link plz :)

@MrEL91N

Wassab Vinix https://youtu.be/WLpDFGM3jP0

@ivanjuric2398

This song is about Danny's addiction and how Ben tried to get him into rehab <3

@priscillamariiinn

I just saw this comment and omg when that chorus came on, it all just hit me and made me tear up. This song is so deep,as well as many others. I love them both

@sagirahmed6970

But Danny was never been rehab

@sumofit4475

It's kind of obvious. The talking in the intro is from their concert in Seattle where Danny could barely stand on his own two feet he was so fucked up.

@kevlord9

We know

@WillyFinsFan

Yea even the lyrics makes it obvious

@helenaworld999

WOW!!!! I literally got chills multiple times in this song because you can hear (really well with headphones) the audio from the fan video from Seattle whenever Danny was reeeeally drunk. I think they did an amazing job with adding those parts in. It really hits home because it gives a message saying that "I'm not going to change for anyone. I will change for myself" And it's just truly amazing. This is my favorite song off the record. A Fucking A Forever <3

@nikitalabelle2385

Was looking for this people saying its the for the intro of the album 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@lexmarkin8628

As drunker I would say that I’m not gonna change not for people, neither for me

@musicman2093

Regardless of what you believe, it always feels good to know someone is praying for you. There are many shades to us all and for a musician it's about bringing it all to light. I feel all three songs equally on a personal level, because they connect to different sides of me. I've felt any three of those ways at some point in time. It's something you either understand or you don't. As with all music.

@008peron

Good old days

@mrlegitkiller9669

Bought the album the first day it came out. I love all the songs! I feel like this album is a good way of showing how amazing they still are!

@richarddubieliii1093

The beginning of this song pumps me up at the gym like no other

@yeremisespinoza615

este es un clasico que nunca cambiara y no pasara de moda i am love asking

@alanricardo4496

Nunca me canso de ouvir ..... Música top de mais 💥

@travistucker9022

Best album cover of all time. Best song from AA

@OkSear

I like 3:30 - 3:48 as well as the intro. Amazing

@bobjohns9009

Love this song, with there was an actual video

@fasterbrutaler

yup, he's back.

@adumbyelloh2563

and then he's gone.

@shawboi

Adam Holley Annnnnd he's back again.

@hhunterface

Favorite song on the album. <3 The message is so deep.

@raykylargonzales

My god they got crazy emotional. This. This is music. Pure emotion. Pure drive.

@nickyroberts20

i got to hear this intro when they first released the album at their first live concert, it was the most memorable moment mosh ive ever had in my life, best album by far!!

@joelalvarezcruces1073

El mejor album de asking alexandria ❤

@lyricstellmystory10

This is my favorite song off of the album, I love how they even use the clips from the Seattle show..Make's me love them all that much more.

@Dean-qh2vp

2021 and still listen to this amazing album and have the same goosbumps like the first time i listen it

@LargeMetallicFellow

This band obviously got a lot better. Good job Asking Alexandria, you guys were awesome at Mayhem.

@kimmerzbabii2609

Honestly love this album and all their others <3

@bowchickabowwow96

Omg I have shivers running up my spine. Still one of my favorite bands.

@chewytoken4220

Absolute favorite release from them

@timothygarza3699

Brings back freshmen memories, I'd listen to them allllllll the time

@GraceAlone614

I remember seeing these guys live when they were touring this album, and I just remember talking to this guy who was obsessed with them and I was just like "eh, they're alright". It was really because I never really listened to them. Ever since that festival though I started listening to them more, and now they're one of my favorite bands.

@daryvazquez8514

Aun la escuchó diciembre 2018 ❤😍🎵🎶💕🎤

@MyOhhMaya-bl5rv

Did anyone else pick up that the audio in the background is from the concert they did when Danny was drunk and Ben asked the crowd to help support him through rehab? It was the most powerful thing I've ever seen.

@shelbieisnotfunny

omg I love the live parts of this song

@Pipkiablo

Sister. Glad to be here!

@anthroposophy.

This song really touches my heart, i would say me and Danny have been going through the same layout of lifestyle and we are trapped in our minds, feeling pressured and being judged. I want to cry when i hear the chorus, I'm trapped after my brother went away from us.. This new album is really helping me see my ways... and feel something real, i haven't felt that since you guys gave out Reckless and Relentless... I can't seem to find the right feeling in any band at all, except from you guys, ty.

@yeahbrad420

Songs like this that really and truly connect to other people. "I don't want you to cry I don't even want you to care" It makes me love AA even better

@viqthorcore

I LOVE ASKING ALEXANDRIA !!

@boethiahcultist572

Hearing the intro again after all these years gives me so many fucking chills. I remember hearing it live while the stage was still dark back in 2014 just KNOWING what was about to happen :’) I’d give anything to go back :(

@jaygerhardstein490

This song and whole album is a masterpiece

@durnehviirkingmobilegaming5677

This song makes me feel like a badass. Definitely on my list of songs I'd listen to when/if the purge ever happens lpl

@aliciapassmore524

I love this song. It's so amazing the intro is flat out awesome. Good pump up song I think

@kndyman1234

This album and hail to the king went hard for the time it was released 🙌 🔥

@dannixxbloodbathxx611

Best fucking album they've done, really heart felt!

@askingmypanicatreverse2076

I love that they have the audio from the Seattle show in the background, it puts it into perspective just how far all of them, especially Danny, have come since then. This album is fucking amazing.

@ropik9755

From 2015 to 2020. And i still love this song!!!

@Rain4eva276

Glad Danny's coming back!!!

@iinara.

i like that they added the seattle incident in. this song is very raw. love it

@candicecanipe7956

@xXSamantukasXx

seen them on the 29th of October.... they played this song, they were amazing! 

@wendellrosales5467

Danny hasn't stop touring!!! he's been constantly screaming his lungs out every concert they play!!! he hasn't given his voice a break!!! stand up and scream mixed techno wit rock metal.. Reckless and relentless and from death to destiny are another style like rock n roll mix wit their rock metal screams as well!!! they've changed so their music don't sound exactly the sam.. so they've matured along wit their music to keep surprising fans wit different sound or change..

@brittanydennison1481

Asking Alexandria screams my entire high school years. Still play them👏

@Metal4everAndAlways1

I'm really impressed with their new stuff!

@ImmortalMachine

Love that intro!

@Stickmanzed

Seeing them live on Sunday!  SO PUMPED!

@Stickmanzed

They were really good, if anyone was wondering.  Sure, they may have been pretty drunk, but all the bands there were excellent.  Definitely my favourite concert that I've gone to yet.  

@jordanalejandro1345

Stickman Zed Who played?

@Stickmanzed

zeg_d13 Upon a Burning Body, Blessthefall, Chelsea Grin (probably the best), and Asking Alexandria.
