10 Years - Ghosts Lyrics






Can you please
Slow down your motions
That causing commotion
I can't keep up with
The way you're going anymore...

Lay down dead roses
You've been holding
And rest your shoulders
You can't carry the cross
You've chosen anymore...

You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

Stop trying to show
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know
How to live as ghosts

Replay the process
Calling it progress
To calm down your consciousness
But you can not wear this crown
You've chosen anymore...

You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

Stop trying to show
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know
How to live as ghosts

You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

The wind blows
Against the stove
And leaves the body cold

The wind blows
Against the stove
And leaves the body cold

Stop trying to show
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know
How to live as ghosts

You're running through the motions of the emotionless
You're running through the motions of the emotionless

You're trying to show (You're running through the motions of the emotionless)
How to save our souls
It takes dying to know (You're running through the motions of the emotionless)
Hot to live as ghosts

    Hi from Russia)

  10. k.... ....

    one of my favorite bands although I wonder why they almost never have a guitar solo.

  11. K.... S....

    Good music will always live on in this generation of repetition! Bring back lyrical meaning! God I miss the early 2000s stuff. Music like this was the best! Happy to see them sticking to their guns!

  12. �.... �....

    Do we have any chanse to see music video for this song in the future?

  13. A.... A....

    Glad they haven't changed drastically like everyone else has

  14. N.... ....

    Hands down one of the GREATEST bands of all times!!!!!!!..........LITERALLY!!!!!!...........What a fuckin VOICE!!!!!

  15. s.... g....

    Hey! Actual music 👍

  16. u.... ....

    A breath of fresh air

  17. a.... b....

    Make Halos the next single.

  18. J.... M....

    I think this might just be their best work since the Division era.

  19. R.... ....

    Beautiful, just give us more

  20. S.... C....

    I was in to 10 Years back during my time in middle and high school, but discovered the likes of Anathema, Antimatter, Ghost Brigade, and Katatonia shortly thereafter and sort of grew out of the "post-grunge" style of alternative metal in favour of the more gothic style.

    It would be a stretch to say that 10 Years ever touched upon the latter, but they always did have a sombreness to them relative to their contemporaries that set them aside and just a tiny bit further in that direction. From Birth to Burial saw them at an interesting cross road between that and the Deftones while being slightly more progressive and generally more subdued. It started off good and crawled its way to being better and better as it went on. As a result, it was the first album by a more mainstream act I had purchased for a long time, outside of the Deftones' recent output.

    I'm not as taken to (How to Live) As Ghosts, though. It starts to get pretty good from "Ghosts" onwards, but prior to that, it spends its time in relatively up-beat and somewhat regular alternative rock territory. This makes that half of it rather inconsistent with its latter half, which regains a bit more of 10 Years' aforementioned, characteristic sombreness. Nevertheless, it never gets nearly as heavy as its predecessor could get on songs like "Triggers and Tripwires" and "Crimson Kiss". Perhaps that was their point this time? None of it is BAD; it's just missing the ominous touches that made From Birth to Burial so surprisingly compelling.

    I'm not sure that this one is a buy for me. We'll see.

  21. A.... G....

    my favorite song in the album till now

  22. K.... ....

    I think I'm in love with this track, guys.

  23. d.... s....

    Love 10 years raw talent my face vocalist and lyricist

  24. v.... ....

    Good song, but not as strong as the other two we've heard imo. I may have to listen to this a few times, but nothing stands out to me on first listen.

    Having said that, I have a lot of faith in this album and I expect it will be one of your best in years.

  25. M.... R....

    Im just glad I didnt buy any songs off it cuz best buy has an exclusive with 3 extra songs on it only there & not on I-tunes, then I can burn it & sell it to cd shop for $5 & its only $10.75

  26. S.... A....

    Every time I see new material from you guys, it is always a must listen. Your sound is always morphing and the music is entrancing to say the least.

  27. K.... C....

    I'm still relearning English as a native speaker. Of all the things they could do...

  28. D.... W....

    Been a 10 Years fan since day one and can't wait for the new album to get here but so far the 4 songs they've released have really been letdowns. If I didn't know who they were ( 10 Years ) and heard these 4 new songs I can sadly admit that I wouldn't be drawn to the band. I really really hope that the rest of the album is better than the 4 songs they've released so far.

  29. N.... ....

    This album is pretty good. A good return to their sound from Division and Feeding the Wolves. I personally hoped the new album was more like "Minus The Machine" and "From Birth to Burial" but what we got is still great.

  30. D.... C....

    Absolutely adore this track. I like Novocaine and Burnout but I was just slightly worried about the album as a whole, but was pleasantly surprised with this track. ^ω^

  31. M.... B....

    It's not their best their best is off of division and Autumn effect

  32. M.... M....

    Beautiful. Extremely psyched for the album release. Excited for the tour dates too, if you are planning on that. Come back to Lawrence, KS! 😂😊

  33. R.... C....

    Such a long time since into the half moon!

  34. A.... M....

    New 10 Years?! Aaaaaah, I’m so excited! This is just as on point as The Autumn Effect :D
    It’s so satisfying that even after 10 years, 10 Years is still as amazing and hauntingly beautiful as ever.

    I feel like I haven’t missed a thing since I returned from a six-year djent experiment.

    A.... M....

    6 year djent experiment? That's a lot of 0s.

  35. m.... ....

    This band is the reason why we appreciate music still! #10Years

  36. w.... ....

    Easily the best song so far. These songs definitely give a division feel which is interesting because its the last matt worked on until now. I just really wish tater did what he said and still wrote with the band at least. Ive seen a lot of recent interviews and they seem to point out that he was sort of the unknown problem and they didn't realize until he was gone. I just wonder if the band decided against having him write for this album or tater changed his mind.

    w.... ....

    wjveryzer7985 yeh I'm not really sure how I feel about tater right now... I think it's important to know artist direction and relationships change and we can only hope that all peoples involved do better since the changes. No hate on anyone, no gun to a head. But I'm happy this album is around the corner. It's a new feel with old notes... Also check out brave the royals if you haven't already. Brian fucking kills it.

  37. J.... S....

    Yes! Yes yes yes yes! Omg yes!... That is all.

  38. M.... Y....

    Love this song and Novacaine

    M.... Y....

    They are both great ass songs

  39. S.... T....

    Evanescence and 10 Years dropped a new fucking songs when i'm literally getting fucking drunk


    this fucking night bruh, hope it goes well ;)

  40. C.... D....

    This album seems alot better then the last 2 by far to me. I'm really digging everything they have out out so far

    C.... D....

    I dont get how fans didnt love the last one.

    C.... D....

    wjveryzer7985 I wouldn't say I'm the biggest fan. The last album wasn't bad. But for some reason i feel more depth in these e songs. I found this band through songs like Shoot It Out and Fix Me. These songs give me that vibe. But don't take me as rhe casual fan. Ive knly listens to a couple albums all together

    C.... D....

    Cailon Delano Totally agree fix me was my first 10Y song

  41. S.... D....

    This is one of faves

  42. D.... H....

    This is why I love you guys

  43. S.... ....

    3/3 on the new album so far. cant wait for all of it

  44. A.... L....

    It's amazing how you guys capture your true essence and synthesize it to the core of the album.

  45. M.... o....

    I can't seem to get enough of this band...

    M.... o....

    Mee ooww same here there my all time favorite in can listen to them forever not get tired of em

    M.... o....

    That's a good thing. Their lyrics differ from the mainstream enough that a listen or two can be worth it. Source: I have listened to 10 Years since I was in 5th grade in 2005.

  46. M.... S....

    My brother and I were talking and we think this is the best of the three released so far but it's a little over produced. The guitar work feels like the bite has been taken out of it. If the riffs hit a little harder with some more punch, it would take all three of these songs to the next level

    M.... S....

    Do you mean under produced? I agree tho the guitars definitely lack bite. I just watched a cover version of the song obviously the guitars are up and i went from thinking the song was ok to really liking it.

  47. M.... D....

    another amazing song by an incredible band. Nothing but love for 10 Years

  48. E.... ....

    When i heard the preview of this song way back on facebook, i knew it's gonna be a title song for the next album <3

  49. F.... F....

    Everything they put out is wondrous. ♡♡♡

  50. M.... Y....

    What an incredible fucking title track! This is definitely up there with the best songs they’ve ever released. I couldn’t be any more in anticipation for the full album.

    M.... Y....

    Matt Yoss doesn’t even come close to fix me or wasteland

    M.... Y....

    Mark Jiskra it’s not as good as wasteland but I’d say it’s better than Fix Me

    M.... Y....

    I like this a lot better than Novacaine. Not that it was bad, just sounded same samey

  51. C.... T....

    Hell yeah, can't wait for the 27th! The songs from this album so far have been amazing!

  52. G.... F....

    There we go! I saw this release at around 11 last night on iTunes and was wondering when the video would come out! Badass
    !

  53. J.... ....

    His voice is a lullaby to my soulllll♡

    J.... ....

    JYN b I couldn't have said it any better! :)

    J.... ....

    I wish they had “Losing my religion”, cover of REM as a bonus track. Have you heard it yet!? Incredible..

    J.... ....

    mir no I haven't- where can I hear it???!?! 🖤

    J.... ....

    There’s a teaser on 10 Years page on Facebook but you can only get it on their tours.

  54. f.... c....

    Best album of 2017....
    Maybe...
    Another great song.

    f.... c....

    ExaByt I purchased the Seether album. It's okay, just not my style of music.

    f.... c....

    the seether album was great

    f.... c....

    Yes! Trivium and RED are on my list of albums to purchase.

    f.... c....

    I would argue that Nothing More's new album is the best so far

    f.... c....

    Yes, it is a great album.

  55. E.... L....

    I was very disappointed by the first two tracks, but this is uplifting, finally something close to how 'beautiful" were.

    E.... L....

    Elle Liam... so you just expect them to put out the same sounding music all the time? Lol not everything is going to sound like beautiful. 😂😂

    E.... L....

    Listen to killing all that holds you

    E.... L....

    Elle Liam “very disappointing”???? Are you smoking my dude? Burnout and nova are fantastic

  56. R.... Z....

    This is one of the best songs y’all have ever written

  57. n.... s....

    Look people! A rock band whose new stuff actually sounds like them and not like top 40 pop! Who'd have known this existed?

    n.... s....

    nick supreme I remember looking through the comments of walk on water by 30stm and people just kept saying “oh, if you ever appreciated the band, you would support the change! Bands can’t do the same thing forever!” I’m thinking, yeah, bands should evolve, but that doesn’t mean they need to manufacture generic pop songs like every other mainstream band.

    n.... s....

    30STM and Paramore went full pop. You don’t go full pop without sacrificing your soul, or at least a good chunk of it.

  58. M.... H....

    10 Years is one of those bands you just can't get enough of. Can't wait for the 27th!

    M.... H....

    I'm seeing them on the 21st and I can't wait.

    M.... H....

    Michael Hyatt I know right. . Ima love them when I'm old asf ... There one of many others that help me through a lot... Of shit when I was a teenager maturing into an adult.... Early through my life I'd say 23 was when my life started to

    Get better. . For my sake music was the only thing here for Me when no one else was friends family no one with out music I'm pretty


    Sure I'd quit my life so hell yeah I'm grateful for all the different types of music genus that help me with life struggles......

  59. r.... ....

    I think of the inspiration and the artistic direction of the lyrics and such... Mortality is a powerful device of reflection, momento mori is an ever present idea in my day to day. This song speaks loud to me. Love it.

  60. J.... S....

    I was waiting for this one <3 Can't wait to hear the whole album!

  61. P.... H....

    Bro too late

  62. A.... ....

    Love this band so much!!! <3

  63. s.... ....

    And another one!! 🤘
    Getting surprised by one of y'alls uploads at 2am is the best

    s.... ....

    seidimeow like your vlogs. Cant wait for this album

    s.... ....

    +steven frye aw gee thanks 😊 and *same*

  64. j.... ....

    Hope this album ain't mediocre.

    j.... ....

    Album's definitely different from From Birth To Burial, but I can still hear some traces of other albums popping up. Two in particular that really pop into my head are Feeding The Wolves and Division.

    I think this album will be good, but it won't be for everyone.

    j.... ....

    jc1424 ...go listen to tool then ;)

    j.... ....

    Can't listen to the new Tool album because they keep postponing it. lmao

    j.... ....

    yeah....maybe they do that on purpose. They know it will suck...postponing is a great way to delay their misery

    j.... ....

    Zé Morais you mad little guy , shit ...keep spreading hate is a good way to feel better , idiot -_-

  65. j.... ....

    I know you guys were inspired greatly by some work by Maynard, so how are y'all feeling about that new single from A Perfect Circle? If you have the time to respond to me.

    j.... ....

    How do you listen to 10 Years without having ever heard Tool or A Perfect Circle? Lol

    j.... ....

    Garrett Meyer You've never heard a Tool song ever ?

    j.... ....

    Cailon Delano not really no

    j.... ....

    Garrett Meyer um anyone who has never heard a Tool or APC song needs to do themselves a favor & Listen to Aenema & Thirteenth Step. NOW. Have you heard Deftones? Either way, listen to Passenger! You're welcome😊

    j.... ....

    i'm not a huge fan of passenger. i mean its not bad i guess. but both maynard and chinos other work is much better in my opinion. kinda cool to see them have something together though.
