Matt Simons – With you Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1:]
Honest where I start from
I try and impart my wisdom
A combination of truth and fear
That’s the way it’s always been
My father and his before him
At times we hurt the …
[Verse 1]
Oh, pity me
I’m so alone and so blue
My friends have all gone away
Their friendliness too
[Pre-Chorus]
It was I on my own
With no need to belong
And I wanted to die
That’s when …
[Verse 1]
Got some money, got some cash
I’m rich and now I’m sad
And I wonder if I’m sad about the money that I have
Got some boats on my plane
At the hotel …
[Intro]
Yeah
Polishin’ a goddamn sword, you know what I’m sayin’?
Polishin’ a sword (Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Concrete Family, Concrete Industries, Concrete Boys up, always, never down
(And this beat from Cash, not from …
When the only sound in the empty street
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On …
Everything that I say won’t mean anything less
When I’m down in a grave
And you’ve put me to rest1
Everything that I say won’t mean anything less
When I’m down in a grave
And you’ve put me to rest
Will the story end
Will it ever change
I never knew a person could be so deranged2
Does it make you feel good
Do you feel strong ruining the lives of everyone you love3
As if life isn’t hard already4
Add it to the list of things to forget
With one chance to define ourselves5
We’re gonna keep on living
Keep on living6
This is for the kids with the beaten in lips7
Whose parents try to shut them up using their fists8
Keep living loud and proud9
They never can hold you down10
This is for the kids with a soul like mine
When people tell you living is a waste of your time11
Keep living loud and proud
They never can hold you down
Pull the plug with a single decision
Your way of life is a contradiction12
Go to rehab celebrate with ketamine
Mend the wounds and light it with kerosene
Light my wounds with kerosene13
As if life isn’t hard already
Add it to the list of things to forget
With one chance to define ourselves
We’re gonna keep on living
Keep on living14
This is for the kids with the beaten in lips
Whose parents try to shut them up using their fists
Keep living loud and proud
They never can hold you down
This is for the kids with a soul like mine
When people tell you living is a waste of your time
Keep living loud and proud
They never can hold you down
Listen to the sound of your children revolting
Listen to the sound of the lives you’re ruining15
This is for the kids with the beaten in lips
Whose parents try to shut them up using their fists
Keep living loud and proud
They never can hold you down
This is for the kids with the beaten in lips
Whose parents try to shut them up using their fists
Keep living loud and proud
They never can hold you down
This is for the kids with a soul like mine
When people tell you living is a waste of your time
Keep living loud and proud
They never can hold you down
Everything that I say won’t mean anything less
When I’m down in a grave
And you’ve put me to rest
Everything that I say won’t mean anything less
When I’m down in a grave
And you’ve put me to rest16
One’s words and actions do not pass away with his body, according to Beartooth.
Beartooth sees a theme among parents: they wield power over their children for their own gain.
Some people are willing to hurt others just for the fun of it. Beartooth criticizes such people by asking these rhetorical questions.
The human experience is a difficult one.
Human beings only have one life to live, so they shouldn’t waste their time entertaining those who hurt them.
Beartooth speaks of the resilience that is necessary to endure antagonistic human relations.
That is, those who are beaten by their parents and others in authority.
“Their fists” means “physical violence.”
Most kids who enjoy metalcore music, the genre that Beartooth plays, feel neglected by parents and society. Beartooth encourages them to continue being themselves despite the opposition.
Others cannot hold you back without your own consent.
Beartooth encourages its listeners to continue doing what they love despite those who oppose them.
Although socially ostracized, metalcore fans still have agency as ahumans to do the things they want to do.
One may incur wounds and scars in this life, but that’s no reason not to live life big.
This stanza encourages people to be themselves without fear.
Beartooth directly criticizes parents and other people who wield power over young people.
This song criticizes those who hurt young people and encourages youths to be themselves despite opposition from others.
