Atreyu – Moments Before Dawn lyrics

[Verse 1: Alex Varkatzas]
The falling's out, but we'd be back
Like a gunshot that may have hurt less
Than the words I caught in the chest as your body rot
I tried to catch you but I keep my heart locked

[Pre-Chorus: Alex Varkatzas]
I fall through the floor
Hell can hurt like this

[Chorus: Brandon Saller]
All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays)
Out the way I see it in my head
The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering)
No funeral for what it could have been

[Verse 2: Alex Varkatzas and Brandon Saller]
Paralyzed again, engaged on the auto pilot
We can fight it but it's hard to hide it
Trying to deny the loss
Trying to hide the fact that
I haven't slept for days
(I haven't slept for days)
And you won't stop crying
(And you won't stop crying)
These moments before dawn
I'd rather be dying

[Pre-Chorus: Alex Varkatzas]
I fall through the floor
Hell can hurt like this

[Chorus: Brandon Saller]
All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays)
Out the way I see it in my head
The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering)
No funeral for what it could have been

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Brandon Saller]
All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays)
Out the way I see it in my head
The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering)
No funeral for what it could have been

[Outro: Alex Varkatzas]
I haven't slept for days
And you won't stop crying
These moments before dawn
Feel just like dying
But what do I know
I'm still here, broken and alone with my fears
