Alter Bridge - Dying Light Lyrics






Here we go again
It's coming on just like before
The same old sinking feeling
Pulls me down an endless hole

Oh the heavy lifting
As I fret for what might be
If this is the beginning
Of the end then let me dream

In the eye of the storm
From the moment we're born

In the dying light
We learn to live
When we give in
To the silent waves that crash inside

In the dying light
We can begin
To live again
When we wake up to eternal life

Let this be an exercise
In how to face your fears
Step into the realm of madness
If you dare, my dear

We are lost in the swarm
From the moment we're born

In the dying light
We learn to live
When we give in
To the silent waves that crash inside

In the dying light
We can begin
To live again
When we wake up to eternal life

All that we need
Passes by
Until we concede
And resign
This mortal coil into the light

Here we go again
It's coming on just like before
The same old sinking feeling
Pulls me down an endless hole

In the dying light
We learn to live
When we give in
To the silent waves that crash inside

In the dying light
We can begin
To live again
When we wake up to eternal life

Alter Bridge Dying Light Comments
  1. J.... N....

    Cheesy generic bollocks.

  2. Y.... D....

    Love the chorus!

  3. A.... ....

    Doesn't matter at which mood I am. After listening to Alter Bridge, I always feel good! 😁

  4. S.... H....

    top cool

  5. g.... g....

    Tosin abasi should be guitarist of the year...tied with petrucci for guitarist of the decade..

  6. A.... C....

    Myles has that voice that when he sings you believe every word.

  7. D.... A....

    Holy shit!

  8. W.... B....

    Myles Kennedy is the best singer in Rock & Roll today!!!

  9. T.... A....

    4:54
    "How much of that beard you wa-"
    "YES"

  10. C.... B....

    Shadows of sorrow lead us to our end. Fight. Rejoice is internal, life is now.
    Cry, for we are born again.

  11. L.... P....

    A lot of people wonder why AB is not more recognized. I think the answer lies in the band's main goal when they do their music. While many other rock and metal bands fill up the stadiums and have millions and millions of views on youtube with these "catch-all" record companies, I feel like AB is not pursuing that, they just make music for their fans and no one else. I feel like this whole record is a statement of that, and maybe that is what makes us appreciate AB even more. Sometimes being a band with a solid but not so large fanbase is even better because the music keeps being real

  12. N.... ....

    Production is dogshit of course, thanks to Michael Baskette. But otherwise a pretty solid album.

    N.... ....

    NotInsaneIPromise I’ve somehow gotten used to it now

  13. A.... V....

    I bet this thing looked waaay better in after effects before youtube compression...


    Nice song tho anyways!

  14. M.... M....

    Iam completely in love with this band since black bird

  15. s.... ....

    so hyped for tomorrows concert =DDD can't wait!

  16. M.... D....

    WHAT IS THE SONG ABOUT? :
    I think the song is about our life's one of the most important aspect, that is survival. Bad times will come in our life but we have to survive that phase of our life and while surviving, we learn to live the life and be a better person day by day.

  17. S.... M....

    This song was hard for me to get into at first, being a AB fan from the beginning. I don't like the "stepped" lyrics in the beginning, but Mark Tremonti really brings it home with the rest of the band and song towards the end.  I still don't like the video of a morphed graphic equalizer either.  Blackbird was the best to me.  Great band overall.  Rock on!

  18. T.... S....

    Been a fan of AB since the beginning....not a huge fan of this video I would prefer just the band playing it on stage. I do love the song and lyrics.

  19. P.... ....

    Hey non fans! Here's what you need to listen next-. Blackbird(no 1 obviously), ties that bind, isolation, watch over you, metallingus, one by one, down to my last, open your eyes and everything else you find. You will eventually understand why AB lovers bow to them🙏

  20. D.... B....

    Muito top, que vibe!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

  21. B.... S....

    i love Alter Bridge i been fan since you guys first came out and Alter Bridge will always be my favorite band cause you guys are so amazing your music is pure amazing

  25. T.... O....

  28. P.... W....

    Technically hard enough to be a metal band... definately a rock collossus..
    But AB are so much more than one Genre..
    Thanks to the blissfull musical prowess of all band members.
    Long after these guys are gone... people will realise just what a magnificent band they are.

  29. A.... D....

    Love them since album one...
    They never fail to impress..
    Lovealterbridgeforever...

  30. S.... D....

    Just one word... - beautiful...!!!!

  31. T.... T....

    Our generayion has forgotten this genre of music

  32. H.... H....

    The clip reminds me Windows Media player LoL

  33. s.... ....

    If this is not the closing credits song to every action movie you ever saw, I dont know what is. Id sit and watch every damn credit just to hear the song, again.

    DYING LIGHT LYRICS

    [Verse 1]
    Here we go again, it's coming on just like before
    The same old sinking feeling pulls me down an endless hole
    Oh, the heavy lifting as I fret for what might be
    If this is the beginning of the end then let me dream

    [Pre-Chorus]
    In the eye of the storm
    From the moment we're born

    [Chorus]
    In the dying light
    We learn to live when we give in
    To the silent waves that crash inside
    In the dying light
    We can begin to live again
    When we wake up to eternal life

    [Verse 2]
    Let this be an exercise in how to face your fears
    Step into the realm of madness if you dare, my dear

    [Pre-Chorus]
    We are lost in the swarm
    From the moment we're born


    [Chorus]
    In the dying light
    We learn to live when we give in
    To the silent waves that crash inside
    In the dying light
    We can begin to live again
    When we wake up to eternal life

    [Bridge]
    All that we need passes by
    Until we concede and resign
    This mortal coil into the light

    [Verse 3]
    Here we go again, it's coming on just like before
    The same old sinking feeling pulls me down an endless hole

    [Chorus]
    In the dying light
    We learn to live when we give in
    To the silent waves that crash inside
    In the dying light
    We can begin to live again
    When we wake up to eternal life

    [Outro]
    (When we wake up to eternal life)
    (When we wake up to eternal life)

  35. d.... ....

    a nice way to end a album

  36. E.... W....

    This is easily the best song on the album, and I have to say that it fits in the same category as Blackbird and WDTTW... this song has everything. INCREDIBLE.

  37. P.... S....

    1 f****** great video 🤘💜🔥😁🎵

  38. I.... J....

    Pure skill from Tremonti👎 ... I dislike this album not same like a One day remains and blackbird album. SO PURE SKILL

  39. C.... ....

    What a beautiful song. I have listened to the album a few times and this song always gets me. Such a beautiful way to end an album. And the life signs of the machine in the end is incredible. I'm going to do an album review on this and this will be the song I use as an intro.

  40. S.... H....

    One of the greatest songs on WtS.

  41. T.... N....

    ALTER BRIDGE 4 LIFE MAN! They're so damn good

  42. j.... a....

    This is like audio porn. A good thing!

  43. C.... S....

    Brilliant! Love it WOW

  44. J.... E....

    This song to me is about dealing with anxiety and depression. Someone very dear to me described their battle with anxiety and depression in a very similar way. They’ve battled it and learned to deal with it and overcome its obstacles. This is my favorite song in the new album. Thank you for the incredible piece of music.

  45. D.... d....

    🎸🎸🎸fuegooooooo🎸🎸

  46. N.... L....

    OMG Wonderful

  47. I.... ....

    The problem with this album is that most songs start with a cool heavy riff and then become a celine dion ballad ;(

  48. E.... ....

    Never disappointed of their songs!

  49. J.... M....

    A cualquier cosa le llaman videoclip ahora

  50. V.... P....

    Alter Bridge is back.

  51. C.... S....

    People say Metallica is this generation's Led Zeppelin. Sure, maybe in terms of numbers, however, in terms of song writing that claim is Alterbridge as a band/whole.

  52. T.... M....

    I love Hero Metal!! Alter bridge’s music makes me wanna dress up like a superhero and look over the city from a skyscraper with my chest and chin held high!

  53. P.... G....

    Beautiful and complex song! It's a perfect combination for me

  54. N.... P....

    Most favorite guitarist

    They played this live last night and it was unbelievable! I was rockin out and getting emotional at the same time! Only Alter Bridge can pull that off!

  64. l.... S....

    Miles Kennedy is actually fitting to bind with Alter Bridge than with Conspirators. This band is big and they must make it even bigger!

  65. D.... B....

    EPIC Song!

  78. 0.... ....

    Miss u so much 😭 guys , and this song really hits the spot 😘😍

  79. S.... M....

    After listening to the CD with a good set of headphones, the whole album sounds mushy, too much bass. Does anyone else think so?

  80. c.... ....

    How is this not top 10 already? This bridges 30 years of excellence. This is better than any Creed but the progression.... omg

  81. A.... N....

    Man do sad I'm missing these guy's at Bomb Factory in Dallas tonight, just an epic band in every way😥

  82. J.... P....

    Anyone else love the fact that at 5:00, the final note of Mark Tremonti's solo blends perfectly into the vocals? Such a nice touch to kickoff a great outro!

  83. M.... M....

    Anyone else really excited to see this performed live?

  84. J.... P....

    The more I listen to this particular track the more it grows on me it's right up their with blackbird

  85. T.... C....

    Guys show some love and buy the album

  86. K.... E....

    Legit the same day I saw these guys this was released

  87. L.... V....

    It would be nice, with a full orchestra!!!

  88. F.... S....

    Shoot the music video director in the head so he/she can't make any more of this crap, enough said. director 0/10

  89. c.... c....

    Best song they have ever done.

  90. M.... A....

    This song destroyed me. One of their greatest. What an album!

  91. A.... R....

    Eu quero tanto um show solo aqui no Rio !!!!! :'( <3 <3 <3 \m/\m/\m/

  92. M.... J....

    been a fan since Blackbird

  93. I.... N....

    One of my favourite from the album! Walk the sky is.amazing

  94. T.... A....

    One of my favorite songs from this album.

  95. B.... W....

    Jesus, how this band isnt the biggest thing in the world right now is unbelievable, this is ear-porn at its very best

    B.... W....

    @AngryQuacks Hey don't worry mate if you look up Scott Heslin in the dictionary it says "complete wanker". Hes a serial Alter Bridge basher who gets erections from his negative comments.

    B.... W....

    I'll be honest, I've literally just discovered them tonight after one of their songs was behind a video I was watching.... I'm now binge listening to all of their songs and I'm yet to find one that I don't like

    B.... W....

    @Will You discovered gold my friend 😉

    B.... W....

    @Scott Heslin yet here you are. Obsessed with the band arnt you?

    B.... W....

    It's generic shite.

  96. d.... ....

    My goodness. Fifteen years in and these guys just get tighter and their songwriting gets better and better. How is that even possible? It's not human. I actually feared that all the side projects and how busy they stay might eventually detract from their ability to sustain the quality of future A.B. projects. Boy, was I ever wrong - and I've never been happier about being a complete idiot. Love this album.

  97. M.... T....

    Dying Light? I love that game! Lol the song is great too!

  98. P.... T....

    And here comes Tremonti at exactly 3:00.. CLASSIC!!! My song so far. Have played this 4 times already..

  99. A.... ....

    Tremonti is this band's saving grace.

  100. c.... ....

    geiler Song, aberdie Videos werden immer schlechter
