Never Alone
The Amity Affliction Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We struggle to our feet
We all yearn to be free
We fight and we're weak
We all come out and grieve

This goddamn life is our disease
But we can't always fucking win
We can always turn the tide
We can all stand up and sing 'never alone'

We fight together, not alone
No matter where our bodies roam
This place is now what we call home

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Listen, always
We'll be drowning in our grave
And we can't stand for ourself
We have to stay afloat (We struggle to breathe)

With the word that we try to believe
When I lost my home and find my way home
We can always turn the tide
And we get lost and not be blind, never alone

We fight together, not alone
No matter where I might go (This place is not away from home)
We are never, ever alone

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

We are not lost here together
We are not lost anymore
We'll turn the tide, we'll calm the storm
We are ready for war
We are ready for war
We are ready for war

We are not lost here together
We are not lost anymore

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Hello, are you there, with me?
I'm just trying to get in touch man.
I've been so fucking, so fucking down lately.
Like, I don't know what's happening, I'm just so tired all of time.
Trying to sleep' I just, I just lay there quiet.
Can't speak 'cause everyone around me is passed out.
My fucking mind's raging.
Oh, hello?
I don't even know why I called.
I think it, I think it might be time for me to leave.
Call it quits, I'm sick of this.
It's the same fucking day, every day.
I think I breathe, I can't be sure though.
It's all the same now, drink, drink, drink again.
I'm sorry man, I think it, you don't want to heat this.
I'm a mess, I'm sorry man, I just don't know who to turn to.
No one really hears me, you know?
I speak, at least I think I speak, but no one hears me.
I'm stepping out.
Hello, hello?




I shouldn't have called.

Lyrics
We struggle to our feet
We all yearn to be free
We fight and we're weak
We all come out and grieve

This goddamn life is our disease
But we can't always fucking win
We can always turn the tide
We can all stand up and sing 'never alone'

We fight together, not alone
No matter where our bodies roam
This place is now what we call home

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Listen, always
We'll be drowning in our grave
And we can't stand for ourself
We have to stay afloat (We struggle to breathe)

With the word that we try to believe
When I lost my home and find my way home
We can always turn the tide
And we get lost and not be blind, never alone

We fight together, not alone
No matter where I might go (This place is not away from home)
We are never, ever alone

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

We are not lost here together
We are not lost anymore
We'll turn the tide, we'll calm the storm
We are ready for war
We are ready for war
We are ready for war

We are not lost here together
We are not lost anymore

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts

Never alone, never apart
We found each other in the dark
Shed our tears and fight our fears
We are one, the lonely hearts
