Avalanche Lyrics by The Ghost Inside

Dear Youth

2014

[Intro]
I can't stop screaming these words over again
Until breath escapes and my chest caves in
It doesn't matter where I've been
Can't give in, and shut down
Just breathe in and breathe out and begin
I shook the hand of doubt so I could sever the lies that he spits from his mouth
And now, it's time to pull through
Something I must do with or without you

[Verse 1]
I've been here one time, two times, now three times before
Long enough not to wait around for that knock upon my door
I'm staring at the face of doubt so I can't forget who I'm cutting out
Why put in my all just to watch my buildings fall?

[Chorus]
Hey, hey, I'm living for today
Forgetting things I can't change unwinds me
Hey, hey, nothing stands in my way
Time stopped when I broke the chains that bound me

[Verse 2]
It all comes down to this
Both truth and consequence
I need, something more than an empty promise (an empty promise!)
To believe in something, (just one thing), that will never go wrong, (not today!)
Letdown after letdown, I'm done

[Chorus]
Hey, hey, I'm living for today
Forgetting things I can't change unwinds me
Hey, hey, nothing stands in my way
Time stopped when I broke the chains that bound me

[Bridge]
Count the clock till the overhaul
You built a bomb inside my walls
Count the clock till we're out of hand
You build, build now we're caught in the avalanche
Count the clock till the overhaul
You built a bomb inside my walls
Count the clock till we're out of hand
You build, build now we're caught in the avalanche

[Outro]
Reset, rebuild
You wrecked this city but not my will
(I said) Reset, rebuild
You wrecked this city but not my will
