Crash and Burn
For the Win Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I knew you'd be the first to leave
When I gave you all of me
You only see the things you want to see
I'm done with everyone who's trying to pull me down
I see right through you and everything you do
Crash and burn and no it's your turn to
Feel how I feel
Crash and burn and now it's your turn too
Feel how I feel
Every promise you made was just another mistake
You tore out my insides
I'm caught in a landslide
I don't really know what's left of me
You always wanted more than I could give
You were an anchor at my feet
Let's get one thing straight
I won't go down this way
Rebuild this life with my own two hands
Just like I always have
Feel how I feel
Crash and burn and now it's your turn too
Feel how I feel
Every promise you made was just another mistake
And I'll tear down every wall
That you built to watch me fall
Every promise you made was just another mistake
I thought that we had it all
You took everything from me
I will rebuild again
You're an anchor at my feet

So many things I need to say
There's a lot on my mind that I need to express
I knew you'd be the first to leave
I had a feeling that you would bail on me
When I gave you all of me
I devoted myself entirely to you
You only see the things you want to see
You're selective and only look at what suits you
I'm done with everyone who's trying to pull me down
I'm fed up with people who are trying to bring me down
I see right through you and everything you do
I can tell what you're up to and it's not good
Crash and burn and no it's your turn to
You're going to fail and you deserve it
Feel how I feel
Experience the same emotions that I'm going through
Every promise you made was just another mistake
All of the promises you made were false and led to failure
You tore out my insides
You hurt me deeply and took away the core of who I am
I'm caught in a landslide
I'm stuck in a situation that's spiraling out of control
I don't really know what's left of me
I'm unsure of my identity after all that's happened
You always wanted more than I could give
Your expectations were unrealistic and beyond what I could provide
You were an anchor at my feet
You held me back and prevented me from moving forward
Let's get one thing straight
We need to establish something clearly
I won't go down this way
I won't let myself fail in this manner
Rebuild this life with my own two hands
I'll take control of my life and start over
Just like I always have
I've been rebuilding my life on my own in the past
And I'll tear down every wall
I'll remove all the obstacles in my way
That you built to watch me fall
You deliberately created obstacles to hinder me
I thought that we had it all
I believed that everything was perfect between us
You took everything from me
You deprived me of everything that mattered
I will rebuild again
I'll start anew and rebuild everything
You're an anchor at my feet
You're still holding me back and preventing me from moving forward

A Day To Remember
"Holdin' It Down For The Underground"
Been through a lot in the last year
It's like everything I love is slipping away
And every time I come home
Some more of me it isn't there
I gotta get it together
I need to do things for myself
I've given everything
But still you take more from me
I need some room to breathe
Come on, come on
You know this isn't what we planned on
(You know this isn't what we planned)
Come on, come on
Tell me we'll be okay
(We'll be okay!)
Lets go back, lets go back
To a time where I still felt I had a family
This isn't what I remember
Everyone's looking out for just themselves
If need be I'll be happy to leave
Just be warned, I'll be taking most of you with me
I see straight through
That smile straight through
That painted face
Don't think that I can't tell
Which one of you is against me
Come on, come on
You know this isn't what we planned on
(You know this isn't what we planned)
Come on, come on
Tell me we'll be okay
(We'll be okay!)
Lets go back, lets go back
To a time where I still felt I had family
I had the greatest faith in fools,
I turned my back and out came the wolves
PAY ATTENTION!
Come on, come on
You know this isn't what we planned on
(You know this isn't what we planned)
Come on, come on
Tell me we'll be okay
(We'll be okay!)
Lets go back, lets go back
To a time where I still felt I had family
Been through a lot in the last year
It's like everything I love is slipping away

I'd just like to take a moment to thank the HELL out of Victory Records for being a label I can constantly trust and come to for awesome new music.

With how many bands that have sued out of this label... I'm shocked anyone would sign with them at all anymore. The owner is clearly an asshole. But I hope FTW and Broadside the best. These bands are really solid and deserve the attention.
