40 Nights (10th Anniversary Version) Lyrics by August Burns Red

Leveler: 10th Anniversary Edition

2021

You’re living for today, but your future is looking bleak
One day it’ll all come crashing down
Nothing lasts forever. You’ve only planned for the here and now
I said, nothing lasts forever. Live fast, die young
Live fast and die young
It’s what’s ahead, but just remember
Slow and steady wins the race
So pick your head up and keep your mouth shut
You are the captor of originality
You are the thief of authenticity
Respect is something that you’ll never see
Everything you write all sounds the same
You’re forsaken
Forsaken on this mountain
The bridges have turned to ash
This is your final hour
This is your great fall
You won’t make it out alive, so say your dearest goodbyes
You are Goliath standing firm in your light
We are David and you’re in our sights
You are Goliath standing firm in your light
We are David and you’re in our sights
Your dreams have come true
Have you forgotten the reason why?
Life, death, dreams, wealth - nothing lasts forever
Greed, envy, gluttony will amount to nothing
Nothing lasts forever
The earth is about to quake
The earth is about to quake
The earth is about to quake
Brace for impact, run for the hills
Brace for impact, it’s a long way home
Brace for impact, run for the hills
You’ll surely end here
Goliath, we’re screaming your name
Goliath, we’re coming for you
