August Burns Red - Wrecking Ball Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
We clawed, we chained, our hearts in vain
We jumped, never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell
A love no one could deny
[Pre-Hook:]
Don’t you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can’t live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
[Hook 1:]
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
Yeah you, you wreck me
[Verse 2:]
I put you high up in the sky
And now, you’re not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we’re ashes on the ground
[Pre-Hook & Hook 1]
[Hook 2:]
I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you wreck me
[Bridge:]
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
And instead of using force
I guess I should’ve let you win
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
I guess I should’ve let you win
[Interlude:]
Don’t you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
[Hook 1 & Hook 2]

August Burns Red Wrecking Ball Comments
August Burns Red kicks ass!! Full blast!!! Ffffffff you neighbors!!!
this played while i was on christmas shopping lol
rock on, christmas! \w/
All we need now is a video of Jake Luhrs naked on a wrecking ball
This is screamo, not punk
These fu.ers kill it evertime ! All pop songs . fuck haters lol enjoy
the meaning of the song has changed drastically. they’re both about breakups and heartbreak but the emotions portrayed hit much harder
Copila baratap
No doubts, this version is ten times better!
Oh, That isn't Metal?
my first time listening to August Burns Red and I’m in love.
You can hear a few similarities between Composure and this, vocals sound pretty similar :)
I love this cuz I dig pop and rock, so it works
Love this version. Silence the Messenger did a version of it too that bangs just a bit harder than this one.
This version is complete dogshit. You guys blew this
Not that the original is any better...
This is the heaviest Punk Goes Pop song I've heard so far. Ahhh. It's so wonderful.
About time this song got some testosterone!😂
Wow, they totally ruined it. Sad to say that miley cyrus version is better.. god its horrible!!
August Burns Red never dissapoints... but still I'm suprised lmao
1.25 speed. Thank me later.
As a true August Burns Red fan. I'm sorry, but my personal opinion is... This is their worst work so far.
Coff coff please kill off pop this should be popular not a bunch of fake cookie cutter garbage pop is just revolting
Tbh I think the original was better. And am I the only one that things the chorus is better than the verses.
Bad ass cover love August burns red
I'd hate to be someone who liked this version...must really hurt to be alive.
OMg
I can’t stop laughing
It’s awesome
But why
I just find this hilarious. Not even bad, it’s hilarious. I love this and I love ABR
Owls in the Attic cover is 1000 times better...js
2018 \m/
THis is it .
Sick cover! But for some reason It's more brutal on 1.25 speed XD
listen to albums:
1.THRILL SEEKER
2.MESSENGERS
3.CONSTELLATIONS ( if you have time )
Holy cow this goes hard
I love this fucking song haha
Can't believe it took me 3 years to hear this. So good.
Covering a song but keeping the slower tempo is bad?Huh, could have sworn artists don't need to answer to random asshats on the Internet.I guess not.I hear ABR's drum fills. Guitar melodies. Dual vocalists. And I can tell which song they're covering.Most creative song ever? Nope. Not really the point of a fucking cover song though.
Best speed drumer , good luck .
I'm going to assume from the comments you guys aren't well acquainted with ABR. They've made it their stance that they will NEVER have clean vocals in their music. Too many metal bands have abandoned their initial heavy sound in favor of a more "commercially viable" sound and ABR isn't about that. Don't call it shitty, get familiarized.
Better than Miley 😍😱 !
So fucking funny dude, makes me laugh when i`m sad, Genious!
This kind of sucks compared to ANNISOKAY's version
It took fewer than 3 seconds to tell ANNISOKAY's version is absolute garbage. It's so bad in EVERY way. There isn't a single thing I enjoyed about their version.
screamo is cool and all but ew
bcz of august burns red i started listening to wrecking ball
Genuis xD
this is the most shitty good song I have ever heard. it's funny how sumone can take shit and make it shine so good. I randomly clickd on this or I would of never watched it even tho it is ABR
I LOVE IT.
they should stick to their real style its way better its degrading how it musically sound inferior
Okay but I like patty's
Annisokay cover was better. No hate.
I'm a simple man. ABR, I subscribed.
I love the part of the lyrics: ''I never meant to start a waaaahhh...I just wanted you to leeeeht me iiiihhhn'' Yeah you sound very friendly, come in then :D
I feel like people are complaining about people complaining than people are actually complaining.
just shut the fuck up and enjoy the new T-swizzle
I want to like it, but I just don't. Screaming for the whole song has never been my thing.
i love abr but this is the worst thing i've ever heard
Nah, the original is much worse.
I think FFDP should cover a pop song.
This version is bad ass.
The original is also bad ass.
I don't understand where all the hate for Miley comes from, she is awesome!
so much better
ABR always does the best Punk Goes Pop.
Finally this song get ballz
and fuck you miley.
oh! very good
The chorus sounds so f*cking good!
Absolutely fantastic cover! Love it! Fuck off Miley
pellek is a idiot
I loveee this!!!
I love August Burns Red, but I really don't think this works...it doesn't have enough melody to emulate the original song. The Animal in Me did a rock/metal cover that sounded better in my opinion. But that's just me.
Idk, I don't think anything can make wrecking ball a good song. My opinion though, a lot of you obviously like this version.
So much better than the original
it's not difficult to do better than poop sound^^, but i like this version.
this is worse than the original version my ears are fucking bleeding 😷
Yes Yes YES YESSS !
I mean ABR raped the shit out of all the other bands once again.......... they can actually make me destroy my speakers with some miley cyrus.......never thought i'd happen. anyways AUGUST BURNS FUCKING RED
Omg! Love it!
Be ware head phone users
miley is jealous of how much better this version is
i hope she is 😂
I love this version way better.
Turning Miley Cyrus poppy shit into badass metal tune... Dayum these guys don't ever fail to amaze me
This is actually pretty decent.
This isn't a punk cover. It's more like death metal cover
Metalcore* but yeah i get what you mean. August burns red is out of place in this album, seeing as it's all emo trash, aside from OAA and UABB
A man needs a name...
I don't usually enjoy Punk goes Pop covers but August Burns Red are one of the best bands to appear on these compilations. This cover and their Baby One More Time cover are both fantastic and manage to sound like the originals only with meaty guitars and uncleans throughout, showing that they can turn glitzy pop songs into powerful and heavy melodic metalcore tunes.
I can understand this song
I love this. I'm fucking crying 😪
All the people who disliked this video because it wasn't remotely pop - what did you really expect?
This is the second best cover I've heard of this song I highly recommend fearless to check out annisokays cover of this cause I feel it should've been on here
Better than the original
hahahaha this is amazing..
Ok.. so i HATE the original.. i can't stop smiling rn. I love this. Oml.
The oringinal is pretty good too. The video is why people don't like it. Listening to just the audio though, it's a pretty decent song.
I actually wasn't very fond about the song long before i saw the video, but that's just my personal opinion.
heavy covers are great value lol
Some chick named Miley Cyrus did a cover of this song and it wasn't good. Am I original yet?!
No. Try again.
haha i grin, good job.
Jake luhrs is actually SINGING for once?????? 😵
hella better!
this tickles my clit
I know ayy
chorus is cringy af. sorry
It does not sound like ABR. Where are those sick guitar riffs?
the chorus sounds like All That Remains to me
honestly ive listened to al the punk goin po and august made the best one with the nfuckin task of doing wrecking balls , goood job i cant imagine what they capable of with another pop song other than that crap , id be really pleased to hear one more!
Sounds epic!
The amity affliction singing "Sorry (Justin Bieber)" please
" I CAME IN LIKE A WRECKING BALL" lmao
It has more feeling to it...
