Daughtry - What Have We Become Lyrics

Daughtry - What Have We Become Video

All those years
One day changes everything, and
Caught in your life and the passion fades away
Saving for something
That you'll never see in your days
Shutting out everything that you need
 
(Looking through distorted eyes)
Beautiful disaster
(Adding up a million lies)
So much for ever after
 
Building up your wall
Everything you wanted
Fit the pieces into holes we use to crawl away
Giving in or leave it to slide
Now we are what we have become
 
All the tears
You never thought you'd see the day when
The trappings of your life
Just seem to disappear
Goin' through the vacancy that you leave behind
Not what you were promised,
Not what you believed
 
(Looking through distorted eyes)
Beautiful disaster
(Adding up a million lies)
So much for ever after
 
Building up your wall
Everything you wanted
Fit the pieces into holes we
Use to crawl away
Finding out the truth, when
Nothing really matters
Chase the light that's
Blinding even as you crawl away
Giving in or leave it to slide
Now we are what we have become
 
Another vice to ease your pain
Now you know it's not the way out
Now you know it's not the way out
Not the way out
 
Building up your wall
Everything you wanted
Fit the pieces into holes we
Use to crawl away
Finding out the truth, when
Nothing really matters
Chase the light that's
Blinding even as you crawl away
Giving in or leave it to slide
Now we are what we have become
Giving in or leave it 'til now
Now we are what we have become

Daughtry - Over You Lyrics

Daughtry - Over You Video

Now that it's all said and done
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down
Like an old abandoned house
And what you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath
I fell too far, was in way too deep
Guess I let you get the best of me
 
Well I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long long time ago
And I never thought to doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
And now I'm picking up the pieces
And spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you
 
You took a hammer to these walls
Dragged the memories down the hall
Packed your bags and walked away
There was nothing I could say
And when you slammed the front door shut
A lot of others opened up
So did my eyes, so I could see
That you never were the best for me
 
Well I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long long time ago
And I never thought to doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, More than you know
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
Now I'm picking up the pieces
And spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you
 
Well I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long long time ago
And I never thought to doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, More than you know
 
Well I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long long time ago
And I never thought to doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, More than you know
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
Now I'm picking up the pieces
And spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
 
I'm putting my heart back together
 
'Cause I got over you
'Cause I got over you
I got over you
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you

Daughtry - Open Up Your Eyes Lyrics

Daughtry - Open Up Your Eyes Video

A single rose left to remember
As a single tear falls from her eye
Another cold day in December
A year from the day she said goodbye
 
Seems it's only been a moment
Since the angels took him from her arms
And she was left there holding on to their tomorrow
But as they laid him in the ground
Her heart would sing without a sound
 
For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just open up your eyes
 
A single lifetime lays behind her
As she draws her final breath
Just beyond the door he'll find her
Taking her hand she softly says
 
For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just open up your eyes
 
Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonight
Safe on the other side, no more tears to cry
 
For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life
Just open up your eyes

Daughtry - One Last Chance Lyrics

Daughtry - One Last Chance Video

Tell me what you need and I will find a way to stop the bleeding
No, don't add to my mistakes
Tell me your not leaving and I'll tell you everything you need to know
Don't throw it all away
Don't say my words are just too late
 
I don't wanna be left behind
I been so blind
To all that I have broken
Can we put this back together
No more empty promises, they don't exist
Just me, I'm in the open
I know this will take time
Can you give me one last chance to make it right
 
You say the story's ending but I think its time we stop pretending
No, can't let you turn the page
Does your heart remember when we use to say forever don't let go
Don't throw it all away
Don't say these words are just too late
 
I don't wanna be left behind
I been so blind
To all that I have broken
Can we put this back together
No more empty promises, they don't exist
Just me, I'm in the open
I know this will take time
Can we put the past behind (put the past behind)
Tonight I'm gonna fight for you
Just give me one last chance to make it right
Last chance to make it right
 
I don't wanna be left behind
I been so blind
To all that I have broken
Can we put this back together
No more empty promises, they don't exist
Just me, I'm in the open
I know this will take time
Can you give me one last chance to make it right
(give me one last chance to make it right)
Last chance to make it right
(give me one last chance to make it right)
Oh yeah, no more empty promises, they dont exist
Just me, I'm in the open
I know this will take time
Can you give me one last chance to make it right
(Give me one last chance to make it right)

Daughtry - Crawling Back To You Lyrics

Daughtry - Crawling Back To You Video

Lessons learned, bridges burned to the ground
And it's too late now to put out the fire
Tables turned and I'm the one who's burning now
Well, I'm doing alright 'til I close my eyes
And then I see your face and it's no surprise
 
Just like that I'm crawling back to you
Just like you said I would, yeah
I swallow my pride
Now I'm crawling back to you
 
Yeah, I'm out of my head, can't wait any longer
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger
Just like that, like you said I'd do
Yeah, I'm crawling back to you
 
Time can heal
But the scars only hide the way you feel
And it's hard to forget how I left you hanging
On by a thread
 
When everything is said, I will regret it, yeah
I was doin' alright
Thought I could make it
Then I see your face and it's hard to fake it
 
Just like that I'm crawling back to you
Just like you said I would, yeah
I swallow my pride
Now I'm crawling back to you
 
Yeah, I'm out of my head, can't wait any longer
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger
Just like that, like you said I'd do
Yeah, I'm crawling back to you
 
If you could find a way to forgive everything, I know you would
And I would take it all back, give if only I knew that I could
Lessons learned, and bridges burned to the ground
And it's too late now to put out the fire
 
And just like that I'm crawling back to you
Just like you said I would, yeah
I swallow my pride
Now I'm crawling back to you
 
Yeah, I'm out of my head, can't wait any longer
Down on my knees, I thought I was stronger
Just like that, like you said I'd do
Yeah I'm crawling back to you
 
Yeah, I'm crawling back to you
I'm crawling back to you
I'm crawling back to you

Daughtry - Spaceship Lyrics

Daughtry - Spaceship Video

Hood of my car
Radio's just loud enough so I can hear Levon
Where you are is Anybody's Guess But Mine
Just a song that we grew up on
Constellations seem so outta line
I'm wishing we could make it this time
 
If somebody's out there
Show me that you care
Give me a sign that comes outta nowhere
Like a shooting star
Or maybe life on Mars
Something inside tells me
We can't be too far
'Cause I can see me on a spaceship leaving
Here only to find that we're not the only ones
 
We're not the only ones
 
Call me a fool for
Daydreaming in the dark and
Throwing bottles at the moon
Why you're gone is Nobody's Fault But Mine
Another song that we grew up on
Can anybody tell me where I can find
That girl I can't get out of my mind?
 
If somebody's out there
Show me that you care
Give me a sign that comes outta nowhere
Like a shooting star
Or maybe life on Mars
Something inside tells me
We can't be too far
'Cause I can see me on a spaceship leaving
Here only to find that we're not the only ones
 
Looking for love
Looking for something more
When it's not enough
Gotta stay above the clouds
'Cause with our feet both on the ground
We'll never learn
 
'Cause I can see me on a spaceship leaving
Here only to find that we're not the only...
 
Somebody's out there
Show me that you care
Give me a sign that comes outta nowhere
Like a shooting star
Or maybe life on Mars
Something inside tells me
We can't be too far
Take it I'm on a spaceship leaving
Come see for yourself if you don't believe me
Together we will find that we're not the only ones
 
We're not the only ones

Daughtry - Feels Like The First Time Lyrics

Daughtry - Feels Like The First Time Video

I would climb any mountain
Sail across the stormy sea
If that's what it takes me baby
To show how much you mean to me
 
Well I guess it's just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
You know I can't help myself
You're all in the world to me
 
It Feels Like The First Time
It feels like the very first time
It Feels Like The First Time
It feels like the very first time
 
I have waited a lifetime
Spent my time so foolishly
But now that I've found you
Together we'll make history
 
And I know it's just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself
You're all that my eyes can see
 
It Feels Like The First Time
It feels like the very first time
It Feels Like The First Time
It feels like the very first time
 
Feels Like The First Time Like it never did before
Feels Like The First Time Like we've opened up the door
Feels Like The First Time Like it never will again
Never again
 
It Feels Like The First Time
It feels like the very first time
It Feels Like The First Time
It feels like the very first time
 
It Feels Like The First Time First Time
It feels like the very first time Like we've opened up the door
It Feels Like The First Time Opened up the door
It feels like the very first time
 
It Feels Like The First Time

Daughtry - Call Your Name Lyrics

Daughtry - Call Your Name Video

You never said, you never said, you never said
That it would be this hard
Love is meant to be forever, no or never seems to discard
There's gotta be a better way for me to say
What's on my heart without leaving scars?
Can you hear me when I call your name?
 
And when you fall apart
Am I the reason for your endless sorrow?
There's so much to be said and with a broken heart
Your walls can only go down but so low
Can you hear me when I call your name?
 
Complicated situations are the makings of all that's wrong
And I've been standing in the river of deliverance way too long
There's gotta be a better way for me to say
What's on my heart without leaving scars?
Can you hear me when I call your name?
So can you hear me when I call your name?
 
And when you fall apart
Am I the reason for your endless sorrow?
There's so much to be said and with a broken heart
Your walls can only go down but so low
Can you hear me when I call your name?

Daughtry - Traffic Light Lyrics

Daughtry - Traffic Light Video

The traffic light
Waits for you to tell me the tale of a shattered life, tonight
And I just passed by when you have had the chance to fight
Or would you spend your last days alone
Thinkin' nobody would have cared
Or known just look me in the eye and see that its a light
 
So you're telling me, this is how you're going down
You thought that I never really wanted you around
Well, you are way off track to think like that
'Cause now you have taken back, everything that you ever said
About how Id never want to see you again
Well, this is what I, what I left behind
 
(What I left behind, what I left behind)
 
Need a change
In a minute of my time did I get your name?
Well you say, that I haven't been asked that in years
Now I think, the traffic light that stood in the way
So that I can hear what you had to say
I'm half way through your story
Cant help thinking that you're just like me
 
This is how I'm going down
I thought that they never really wanted me around
Well I was way off track to think like that
'Cause now I'm taking back, everything that I ever said
About how they'd never want to see me again
Well this is what I, what I left behind
 
Forgetting about ourselves
Is like history that dust is covering left on the shelf (on the shelf)
The crosswalks make the way for us to say what we need to say
 
Yeah, this is how you're going down
You thought I'd never really wanted you around
Well you were way off track to think like that
'Cause now you have taken back, everything that you ever said
About how I never want to see you again
Well this is what I, what I left behind
This is how you're going down
This is what I, what I left behind

Daughtry - Every Time You Turn Around Video

I've been me, I been followin' my dreams
Tryin' to find the scene where you believed me
I been true, I been waiting here for you
I been patient, understanding and believing
 
(Every time you turn around)

Waiting for me to take it on back down the other road, baby

Waiting for me to take it on back down the other road, baby
But I won't let ya down
 
I see ya standing there
Waiting for me to take it on back down the other road, baby

Daughtry - Start Of Something Good Lyrics

Daughtry - Start Of Something Good Video

You never know when you're gonna meet someone
And your whole wide world in a moment comes undone
You're just walking around then suddenly
Everything that you thought that you knew about love is gone
 
You find out it's all been wrong
And all my scars don't
Seem to matter anymore
'Cause they lead me here to you
 
I know that it's gonna take some time
But I've got to admit that
The thought has crossed my mind
This might end up like it should
 
And I'm gonna say what I need to say
And hope to god that it don't scare you away
Don't wanna be misunderstood but I'm starting to believe that
This could be the start of something good
 
Everyone knows life has its ups and downs
One day you're on top of world
And one day you're the clown
Well, I've been both enough to know
 
That you don't wanna get in the way when it's working out
The way that it is right now
You see my heart, I wear it on my sleeve
'Cause I just can't hide it anymore
 
I know that it's gonna take some time
But I've got to admit that
The thought has crossed my mind
This might end up like it should
 
I'm gonna say what I need to say
And hope to god that it don't scare you away
Don't wanna be misunderstood
But I'm starting to believe that this could be the start
 
'Cause I don't know where it's going
There's a part of me that love's not knowing
Just don't let it end before we begin
You never know when you're gonna meet someone
 
And your whole wide world
In a moment comes undone
 
I know that it's gonna take some time
But I've got to admit that
The thought has crossed my mind
This might end up like it should
 
I'm gonna say what I need to say
And hope to god that it don't scare you away
Don't wanna be misunderstood
But I'm starting to believe, I'm starting to believe that
 
This could be the start of something good
The start of something good
The start of something good
This could be the start of something good

Daughtry - Rescue Me Lyrics

Daughtry - Rescue Me Video

Our story's old
Older than the wind
It's been this sad for years
How can we pretend
When we all know just how it's gonna end?
 
Rescue me
In the middle of the ocean
Crashing down, it's always hard to breathe
Some say its easier to give up on it
I say it's time to rescue me
 
Lost and lonely people staring back
Afraid to try
Some of them here, the same as you and I
The differences are all but left behind
 
So I need you now
 
Rescue me
In the middle of the ocean
Crashing down, it's always hard to breathe
Some say its hard to make the changes
Rescue me and I'll never be the same
 
Rescue me
In the middle of my darkest hour
Time will tell
I never really had the power
Some say it's easier to give up on it
I say its time to rescue me
 
We gotta get out
How foolish have we been
To say it's all been a waste of time?
We may lose, and we may win
But like the sun we will rise again
 
Rescue me
In the middle of the ocean
Crashing down, it's always hard to breathe
Some say its hard to make the changes
Rescue me and I'll never be the same
 
Rescue me
In the middle of my darkest hour
Time will tell
I never really had the power
Some say it's easier to give up on it
I say its time to rescue me
 
Rescue me
In the middle of the ocean
