Asking Alexandria - If You Can't Ride Two Horses At Once...Then You Should Get Out Of The Circus Lyrics






I can't see through the tears in my eyes!
I can't see through the tears in my eyes!
I can't breathe!

I feel I failed!
I was meant to make you smile!
I was meant to make you shine,
To make you shine!

They said
This could never happen!
They said
We could never be!
Are you telling me you listened?

I was meant to make you smile!
I was meant to make you shine!
[x3]

So there's no you and me?
And we can't live this way forever (forever)?
(You said you'd run away)
You said you'd run away,
You said you'd run away with me (with me),
You'd run away.

That we'd escape from the ordinary!
That we'd escape from the world that tied us down!
That we'd escape from the ordinary!
That we'd escape from the world that kept us apart!

(Whoa!) So now this is over and the world falls upon me.
(Whoa!) I never expected to be here alone.
(Whoa!) The shadows are forming as we burst into flames.
(Whoa!) Why does this end this way?

Whoa!
Whoa! (Why does this end this way?)
Whoa!
Whoa!

  33. N.... V....

    [Verse 1]
    I can't see
    Through the tears in my eyes!
    I can't see
    Through the tears in my eyes!
    I can't breathe!

    [Chorus 1]
    I feel I failed!
    I was meant to make you smile!
    I was meant to make you shine!
    To make you shine!

    [Verse 2]
    They said
    This could never happen!
    They said
    We could never be!
    Are you telling me you listened?

    [Chorus 2]
    I was meant to make you smile!
    I was meant to make you shine!
    I was meant to make you smile!
    I was meant to make you shine!
    I was meant to make you smile!
    I was meant to make you shine!

    [Bridge]
    So there's no you and me?
    And we can't live this way forever (Forever)?
    (You said you'd run away)
    You said you'd run away
    You said you'd run away with me (With me)
    You'd run away

    [Breakdown]
    That we'd escape from the ordinary!
    That we'd escape from the world that tied us down!
    That we'd escape from the ordinary!
    That we'd escape from the world that kept us apart!

    [Outro]
    (Whoa!) So now this is over and the world falls upon me
    (Whoa!) I never expected to be here alone
    (Whoa!) The shadows are forming as we burst into flames
    (Whoa-oh-oh!) Why does this end this way?
    (Whoa-oh-oh!)
    (Whoa-oh-oh!) Why does this end this way?
    (Whoa-oh-oh!)
    (Whoa-oh-o

  34. F.... ....

    I was meant to make you smile, I WAS MEANT TO MAKE YOU SHART

  35. c.... x....

    mano me sinto muito emo gótica das trevas solitária ouvindo isso

  36. z.... ....

    z.... ....

    woah really????? O_o epic xDD

    z.... ....

    boi i do not remember writing this

  37. A.... A....

    Name of the bass explosive in the minute 2:06?

  38. N.... ....

    I have hear Room 138 from asking Alexandria, and I hear same lyrics from that song

  39. F.... O....

    HELL of a song!

  40. D.... V....

  41. N.... ....

    Oh my god that fucking extended title tho

  42. n.... ....

    Room 138 <3

  43. p.... c....

    I discovered AA in 2013 (in my emo days) and since then I never stopped listening to them , unlike BVB that I don't listen to that much anymore even tho they used to be my number 1 favourite band... I guess asking alexandria is one of those few bands that were not just a phase <3

  44. S.... ....

    Who does the clean vocals in this album?

    S.... ....

    Danny and Ben :v

  45. P.... O....

    2:42 👹

  46. N.... ....

    1:39 my favorite part

  47. P.... ....

    Yep, it really was a phase

    P.... ....

    7yrs later and i still love this shit.

  48. o.... h....

    2:40 won der fuuuuuuuuuuuuuul

  49. C.... C....

    If you cant ride 138 horses at once you should get out of the circus

  50. �.... 6....

    Eu venho do futuro para dizer que o Danny atual fez uma reutilização da música em um novo álbum, que se chama ' floor 138 '

  51. K.... R....

    Love how in recent song "Room 138" they did a retrospective to the outro at 2:44

  52. J.... T....

    i can see the trayers in my eyes
    i can see the betrayers in my eyes i can brethe

  53. T.... G....

    So who else has noticed the of the ending chorus is pretty much a influence to room 138?

  54. S.... S....

    Again... Why did i used to listen to mainstream pop artists when i have this?

  55. D.... M....

    2:44- 3:45 best part

  56. U.... L....

    Still here

  57. D.... M....

    Room 138 ♥

  58. B.... M....

    Room 138

    B.... M....

    whats the connection with that song im here on this video cuz of room 138

    B.... M....

    In this song he’s talking about Him being in the room alone, which is a reference to alone in a room, and in room 138 he’s saying I never expected to be here again, so he’s coming back to the room talked about in this song, and in alone in a room he’s talking about how being alone in the room again was the last thing he wanted but it was all he needed because it changed him in a good way

  59. g.... p....

    Still my favourite song of AA 😍😍

  60. R.... N....

    Room 138 ♥

    R.... N....

    hey man can you explain the connection to room 138? im here cuz im trying to understand it all


    thanks sonny

    R.... N....

    nic bingham Room 138 Is Where Danny Had A drugs

    R.... N....

    the part that starts in 2:40 is also used in room 138, so you can hear same melody with different text

  61. C.... F....

    my teacher in music class told me and my classmates to do an activity which is that we need to play the loudest song that we know in a bluetooth speaker by ourselves one by one by class number. i was 8, so my teacher now told me to connect my phone's bluetooth to the speaker, then i played this song, the whole class (besides my emo and punk friends) couldnt handle Danny's screams and growls. a few days later, my teacher announced that i was the guy who has the highest score. wow.

    d.... ....

    This is the hardest thing you could play?..... Next time try playing some Exodus or Death
