"Resurrection" (2014)




Selfless lyrics - New Found Glory

Break a mirror and ignore all my features
The fate I’m facing. See what I could do without safety
Make my palms bleed, do all asked of me
With my hand over my heart

Made a pledge to never grow up a bitter dinosaur
Never make mistakes that I made before
Never feel entitled
I just want to know I’ve contributed

I wanna live selfless
Instead of just floating by
Living every day like its my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die
Aren’t you sick of being selfish
I wanna show that I try
Living every day like it’s my last
I can catch up on my sleep when I die

Anxiety is a crippler, nothing meaner
Than loaded eyes
Followed by a smirk and a whisper
As I pass you by, but I’ll let it fly
Cause my hand is sewn to my heart

If I’m not making any sense
Then you’re not at fault
You just haven’t yet felt emptiness
Like the taste of a flat soda
Thought it would be so sweet
You got all you dreamed but still feel incomplete
No I’m not gonna settle anymore
No I’m not gonna hold my tongue
If you haven’t made enemies
Then you never stood for anything
You’re just dust in the breeze
I’m just the dust in the breeze but I want to be a hurricane

Resurrection lyrics - New Found Glory (feat. Scott Vogel)

Pictures on the wall I take down
But there's no frown on my face
It's just good to know that your breakdown
Has been put in its right place

Criticized my mistakes
While you dug your own grave
Singing songs about our friends
You never cared about them

So long, so long
And thanks for nothing
I'm gone, I'm moving on
Watch my resurrection

The knife you stuck in my back
It couldn't cut through my spine
You're a self-proclaimed fiction author
But I learned to read between the lines

Criticized my mistakes
While you dug your own grave
You can only go so far
This is where your story ends

There's no tricks up your sleeve that we haven't seen
Every word from your moth never had meaning
Your agenda exposed easily every single time

The Worst Person lyrics - New Found Glory

Had everybody feeling bad for you
The last two years all the pain you went through
You were only giving half the truth
Loving attention, playing a victim
The whole time you were abusing
The ones you loved
You hid your life away
You didn't want them to know
You were hooking up with girls in Boston

[Chorus:]
You might be the worst person
I've ever met, I've ever known
You keep doing all that shit that
You regret
End up alone

You'd look in my eyes
Tell a lie and not even flinch
You would only stand close to me
To steal a dollar from my back pocket
Manipulate situations and weak minds
To feed all your desires
You would ruin relationships
Then post a smile and hope
Someone likes it
Oh, you know better

[Chorus x2]

Will you ever get your head straight
Making excuses?
Better point the finger back at you
By now, you know there's no use in
Trying to fool me
'Cause I know the full story
So you seek out the meek
Kissing your feet
Spineless believers
Threw me down in the dirt
Dust off my shirt
I'm gonna air it out
I'm gonna air it out for you

[Chorus x5]

Ready And Willing lyrics - New Found Glory

I defied the odds
Dead end cul-de-sac gridded streets that felt like jail
A maze of palm trees, led to nowhere
Built my own boat so I could sail
They said, you won’t make it
You’re just wasting all your time
But I’ve got no patience
And hate to stand in lines

Ohh I’m ready and I’m willing to take you on
Ohh I’m ready and I’m willing to lose it all

I search the channels to find stations
I used to watch when I was young
Only to find a reality that’s fine
Settling for dumb
There’s no more heroes
No one showing us the way
So I sift through my old 45”s
To remind myself.

When my back goes out, I’ll know I did it all
And have stories to tell.
When my eyes go bad, I’ll know I’ve seen it all
They’ll be light when my vision fails
My legs will go bad
But I walked 5 continents
So I won’t need to stand
I hope this life I lived will wake you up
So you could do it again

Are you ready are you willing to take it on?
Are you ready are you willing to lose it all?

One More Round lyrics - New Found Glory

Excuse me, your honor and jury, pass all your judgment
I’ve been examined, interrogated my entire life
I never look at your verdict, but bailiffs, sometimes they read them
And when I hear your thoughts on me, I want to personally say

When you doubt me, it makes me better
When you hate me, it makes me stronger

[Chorus x2:]
One more round
Kick me when I’m down
But I already won
When my name rolled off your tongue

You’re a kid from the future, you’re passive, and you’re afraid
Sound so bold when you’re on paper, crumble when face to face
Yeah, I’m from the past where words were backed by confrontation
So when I hear your thoughts on me, I’m going to personally say

When you doubt me, it makes me better
When you hate me, it makes me stronger

[Chorus x2]

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Take a walk in my shoes
Oh, oh, oh, oh
See how many steps you’ll get through
Oh, oh, oh, oh
You wouldn’t make it a block without begging to stop
Me from throwing stones

[Chorus x2]

Vicious Love lyrics - New Found Glory

If you’ve ever been in love
Or ever hope to be in love
Here’s a story you’ll love with all your heart

Couples on their backs in the park
Lay on blankets bought
On a date the day before
A routine I’ve been longing for
I can’t help but to glance
From the corner of my resentful eyes
I guess it’s all perspective but
It’s you I never get enough
We’re always far apart

[Chorus:]
We’ve got a vicious love
We mix our tears with blood
No clock will stop for us
It ticks by
We fight as hard as we love
We’ve got a vicious love

When I go out alone
And see them sharing meals
Like Lady and the Tramp
Hate their loving eyes
Wishing it was you and I
Add tip to my receipt
Fold it up behind a picture of us
I guess it’s all perspective but
Together though we rarely touch
Hard not to fall apart

[Chorus]

I could have given up a thousand times
In the past that was so easy
When the thought came to my mind
There was no convincing me
Plant my feet to face it all
Side by side or a phone call
Living in tension with you
Still feels better
Better than I’ve ever known

[Chorus]

Persistent lyrics - New Found Glory

We both dreamed a white fence
Would wrap our front yard
How my arms have held you all these years
Now I wake in the morning
And roll to find you
Damn you, sunshine and the shadows you make

[Chorus]
If you don’t love me anymore
If you don’t love, you don’t love me anymore
I’m gonna go out knowing I tried. Persistent
If you don’t want me anymore
If you don’t want, you don’t want me anymore
Persistent so I know I tried
I did my best now I must survive and keep
Pushing on

I had a daughter as tall as I am
In my sleep I see the craziest things
Over her shoulder I saw you smiling
Now I don’t want to wake up and it fades

[Chorus]

When I’d swim in the ocean
I’d miss your skin
So fair the summer would burn it
When I’d hike up a mountain
I’d miss your smile
You’d love the view from the top of it
I would be reminded every day
I would be reminded every day of my shame

[Chorus] x2

Stories Of A Different Kind lyrics - New Found Glory

You’re 21 and jaded
While I’m just trying to survive but you still
See me smiling
You’re arrogant like you’ve made it
Acting like the living dead
But I’m the one who’s alive instead

Fires, fighting, and long wasted nights have
Become the moments that I live for

[Chorus:]
Stories of a different kind
You do it for money while I do it for a good time
And you can bet when it ends
I’ll be full of debt but I’ll have no regrets

Rocket shooting you straight to the top
And I’m afraid you miss the point
And you need some reminding
You’re no pioneer, your way was paved
A decade ago I was in your shoes
But never had your attitude

Fires, fighting, and long wasted nights have
Become the moments that I live for

[Chorus x2]

I’ve been around the world a thousand times
Had people shouting out my name
To later on forget all the words they sang
And it never felt the same

[Chorus x2]

You’ll be emptied files in a trash can
And I’ll be a good find in a used bin

Angel lyrics - new found glory

Hope you’re listening
Want you to hear me
I got a lot to say
And get off my mind
You dragged my family name through the dirt
I kept my mouth shut, digested the hurt
Towards the end I heard you talking to another
Two months later, you were calling them your lover

So what makes you think that you’re better
Better than anyone?

[Chorus:]
You’re no angel
You’re no angel
And no heaven would want you now

Did I jump too soon, reaching for the ledge
Pull myself up to you. You stomped my finger tips
I called and asked you back
You said it didn’t matter
But no one knows that ‘cause then you wouldn’t be a martyr

So what makes you think that you’re better
Better than anyone?
So what makes you feel
You’re more perfect
More perfect than everyone?

[Chorus]

Is there any good you think about or are just all the bad times that we had
Stored in your memory?
Found a photo from eight years ago that made me smile and wonder how you’re doing
So what’s wrong with me?
I guess lashing out makes it easier, something to sing about just makes it easier
Why can’t I let it go? No, I won’t let it go
‘Cause I’m no
I’m no angel
Why would anybody want me now?

Degenerate lyrics - New Found Glory

No, I don’t think you’re a bad person
For wanting to be wanted by someone
It’s lonely through the night
But don’t act blind
Your heart’s not a playing card
Reputation shows their hand
So I’d fold now before you’re stuck all in

Won’t even hold you and you’re lying in their bed
‘Cause they don’t want to
Get it through your head

[Chorus:]
Degenerate only wants one thing
Don’t give it up
I know you’re feeling lonely
But you’ll be worse when
They’ve had enough
Had enough
So don’t give it up, give it up

You know by now
Snakes are hardest to catch
Until their mouth’s around your neck
Smooth on the surface but felt a bite
It’s not the life
You’ve earned your degree
Wise to know cheap talk from flattery
So I’d drop out
Before you’re who you hate

Won’t even hold you and you let them have their way
‘Cause they don’t want to
It’s just another day

[Chorus x2]

I can’t be everywhere for everyone all the time
If I could, I would fix this whole world
All I ask of you
Never compromise
Never let the leeches try and suck out your soul

[Chorus x2]

Stubborn lyrics - New Found Glory (feat. Anthony Raneri)

Visions of red
I never thought that I could get here
In the past the pain would blind me
And at times I’d wish you dead
Now I see a picture clearer than the morning
To you I was a monster
And you had to save yourself

[Chorus:]
For only one more night
To hold you close
To tell you you were right
Oh, and I’ll take all the blame
For only one more night
To say what I was too stubborn to before
Oh, and I’ll take all the blame
Stubborn, I was stubborn
Too stubborn before
Too stubborn before

I left you alone
While I went off into my own world
Throw up my arms in anger
When you’d try to come pull me out
Now I see myself more clearly than the morning
To you I was hopeless
And I had to save myself

[Chorus]

I’m not trying to win you back
I’m not on my knees
I owe you this much
I’m not holding grudges anymore
Anymore

[Chorus]

Living Hell lyrics - New Found Glory

You’d be a thorn in my side
Every doctor would break their scalpel
Trying to cut it out
I’d spend my time
Ruining moments you’d share
If they’re not mine

Distract them by calling you a liar
While someone’s outside popping their tires

[Chorus:]
If I can’t have you, I’ll make sure no one will
I’d be beside myself
If I can’t have you, I’ll make sure no one will
Like a living hell

I’d be the pain in their neck
Every corner they’d do double takes
And look over their shoulder
Make them regret
Every thought that they’ve had
Of being with you

You’re both out for a night on the town
You get home and the house is burnt down

[Chorus]

Can I give you a ride back home?
You can tell me where I went wrong
Then I’ll promise you that I would never
Let you down again

[Chorus]

If I can’t have you to fill my shoes,
I’ll make sure no one will
No one will
Like a living hell

On My Own lyrics - New Found Glory (feat. Brendan Yates)

Carried you across the nation
My modesty wouldn’t cave in
Until now I’d hold my breath
But no need when you broke the pact
I’d open doors, you’d close them
Behind when I wasn’t looking
I’d clean up your mess
Now I get to sweep you under the rug

[Chorus:]
So I’ll erase your name
Start again
Make it clear
So there’s no more question
Words are empty
Now they know
Erase your name
And do it again
On my own, my own, my own
Do it again on my own, my own

I’d have ideas, you’d claim them
Behind if I wasn’t looking
You’re colder than winter
But now I’m smiling under the sun

[Chorus]

Without you in my way
Never thought I’d see the day I’d be on my own, my own
Do it again on my own, my own

A picture of me standing next to you
Woke to find I’m a cheap headline
After years I spent breaking stereotypes
Now my skin’s stained
I’ll shed and do it again

Without you in my way
Never thought I’d see the day
Without you in my way
Do it again on my own, my own

[Chorus]
