Brad Knauber Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How am I not dying
We knew that night would come, we prepared all daylong
How did we, die soo fast.This is the last stand.But were scared.
And I'm trying not to die
'Cause I know if I die I will have to run for my stuff.
And when the daylight comes the mobs will die.
But tonight we have to be strong
But Tonight we need to hold on!
Oh Woah
Oh Woah
Oh Woah
Oh Woah
Oh Woah
Oh Woah
here we are standing waiting for the testing
in my arm is my sword
the night is coming back
the mobs will be coming out somebody slow it down
this is on hardcore, cause we know when the sun comes up the mobs will die
this is our last chance we will soon be stuck with sighs
And when the daylight comes the mobs will die.
But tonight we have to be strong
'Cause in the daylight all the mobs are dead
But Tonight we need to hold on!
Oh Noo
Oh Noo
Oh Noo
Oh Noo
Oh Noo
Oh Noo
I never wanted to die because I dont want to start all over, start all over.
I was afraid of the night but now its all that I got, all that I got, all that I got
And when the daylight comes the mobs will die.
But tonight we have to be strong
'Cause in the daylight all the mobs are dead
But Tonight we need to hold on!
And when the daylight comes the mobs will die.
But tonight we have to be strong
'Cause in the daylight all the mobs are dead
But Tonight we need to hold on!
Oh woah
Oh woah
Oh woah
Oh woah
Oh woah
Oh woah
Woah not
Woah not
Woah not
Woah not
Woah not
Woah not
Woah not

Original Lyrics:
Here I am held up, I'll have to run soon
What is holding me up?
I knew this night would come, I knew it all along
How did it come so fast?
Every night could be my last night
And there's no way I can sleep
Cause I know zombies are coming to get me now
And when the zombies come I'll be right there
But tonight I'm gonna risk it all
Cause in the moonlight I'll run from Grimdale
And in the morning I'll end up in Yawpton
Oh woah oh woah oh woah oh oh oh
Here I am staring at your own picture
Missing you, so beautiful
The sun is rising up, the moon is falling down
Somebody turn back the time
This is way too hard
Cause I know when the zombies come I may die
This is my last glance at my blocky old shelter
And when the zombies come I'll be right there
But tonight I'm gonna risk it all
Cause in the moonlight I'll run from Grimdale
And in the morning I'll end up in Yawpton
Oh woah oh woah oh woah oh oh oh
I can't stop running because I just don't want it to start all over from the spawn
I was afraid of dying back before it all came falling down
Now it's what I want, now it's what I want
And when the zombies come I'll be right there
But tonight I'm gonna risk it all
Cause in the moonlight I'll run from Grimdale
And in the morning I'll end up in Yawpton
And when the zombies come I'll be right there
But tonight I'm gonna risk it all
Cause in the moonlight I'll run from Grimdale
And in the morning I'll end up with you
Oh woah (yeah) oh woah (yeah) oh woah (yeah) oh oh oh

I feel like this is one of those minecraft parodies that was most likely not very well known or just completely forgotten by the community like 7 years ago and still at 1.2k views but anyways I remember watching this way way back then, good times :)
@TheUnderNerd
This was one of my favorite parody as a kid. I can't believe its so obscure.
@zc7c571

@personperson5918

@colbyolson9203

Wow thank you so much. I was looking for some lyrics to this and you’ve provided them. Thank you. Although I do have one question, is “it staring at your own picture” or “staring at your old picture”?
