Balance And Composure - Alone For Now Lyrics






Is it this air that turns me cold?
This time of year I feel alone.
The wind blows and dries my skin.
These people keep to themselves,
all living in their own hell.
I need to get out of the place I'm in.

Take me to a place where I don't know anybody.
Leave me alone for now.
I've grown sick of every face that I've known.
This keeps me up at night.

See outside but you can't see in,
my words don't penetrate the skin.
Nothing will ever seem to get through.
Walk past your problems and your fears,
the ones you love are left in tears.
Nothing will ever seem to phase you.

Take me to a place where I don't know anybody.
Leave me alone for now.
I've grown sick of every face that I've known.
This keeps me up at night.

I can't let go, I'll break, I'll fold.
It's got to be this air that's killing me.
I know alone is all I've known
and it's old and I'm cold, yeah, but it doesn't phase me.

Take me to a place where I don't know anybody.
Leave me alone for now.
I've grown sick of every face that I've known.
This keeps me up at night.

    These guys know how to start a song.

  27. C.... A....

    It adds more emotion, songs need emotion!

  28. s.... ....

    Proper...? it'd be just as proper if he sang it out of his ass,. he's a rad singer, slap yourself haha

  29. A.... [....

    I felt like I as at home again

  30. s.... ....

    if you don't like balance and composure i'm judging you

  31. J.... M....

    congrats! you've reached adolescence. It's gonna fuckin suck and you might not get out without a literal scar or two (I certainly didn't!) but it'll all be worth it in a year or two, even if you don't get that girl or make those friends. while you're there though, might i suggest to you the bands La Dispute and Defeater.

  32. J.... M....

    dude, this isn't much to get. i mean it's not like fine art that reflects on a life long journey, it's an angsty song that reflects on a childhood which has been recently ended by the discovery that the world is much uglier than it had first seemed to be.
    the music that's harder to get and so much more worth trying to understand, is the music that conveys the beauty of the world despite its ugly face. Even if that music has no words, as it often doesn't.

  33. L.... L....

    this song.

  34. C.... ....

    hey man. i hope you discover the purpose of music one day.

  35. J.... S....

    The world is a ugly place ... Far from beautiful

  36. N.... J....

    There older stuff is so good....then again all there stuff is good.

  37. E.... W....

    Same here..

  38. x.... ....

    @downfallofmyballz yes

  39. p.... ....

    why didn't i find this earlier -_-

  40. d.... ....

    is that jon singing?

  41. J.... J....

    How is it possible to be this in love with a band?

  42. C.... G....

    I love these guys. And the fact that American Football is in the suggested vids makes me love it more.

  43. d.... e....

    Anyone gonna be at the San Antonio show this year?

  44. O.... ....

    Really lovin all this music.. Can't wait to see them with circa.

  45. K.... C....

    wht other songs are on this album?

  46. C.... G....

    These guys, and bridge and tunnel would make the best tour ever.

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

    @SC0TTYM00N You can't, it's out of print and not sold online. You'll have to torrent it or something

  48. L.... ....

    This band is just fucking awesome.

  49. S.... S....

    Where can I get this?

  50. S.... S....

    @ItsNotColdEnough No way.

  51. K.... ....

    this is really good. heard this in a store & had to soundhound it!

  52. A.... M....

    fuck i love this band

  53. j.... w....

    my feelings

  54. m.... ....

    @jsh020 Maybe just that progressive rock is a more well known SUBgenre than indie rock, grunge, emo, and screamo. Only that the rest are coined as styles and misused a lot. In my opinion, emo/screamo were bands who evolved from hardcore punk like Rites of Spring, Cap'n Jazz, Sunny Day Real Estate, pg.99, etc. But in the end it doesn't really matter because not all bands sound the same.

  55. j.... ....

    @BashfulBaybee balance and composure is far off from hardcore, post hardcore or anything, yah they get heavy but never hardcore heavy, they only seem kind aheavy due to his voice but hes just got the 90's grunge vocals that made bands like nirvana work because hes got a voice that has a intensity to it thats never so heavy that hes screaming but never to soft that hes clean

    they really can just be called progressive rock, emo isnt a genre like how screamo and indie is not a genre.

  56. I.... ....

    @percussionferlife will do.

  57. L.... A....

    @ItsNotColdEnough keep thinking that.

  58. L.... A....

    @ItsNotColdEnough haha, since you have no common sense about hardcore music, im just gonna stop now. hardcore to you is probably nirvana. get over yourself and smell the fucking coffee. there's more than one type of hardcore, and you dont have any known experience about hardcore. i bet you WOULDNT even like defeater, the ghost inside, gideon, world of pain, trapped under ice. pretty sure everyone agrees with me here, that you have no fucking idea commenting on here like this.

  59. L.... A....

    @ItsNotColdEnough wow, either you need to grow up, or get a fucking life. or maybe both. only nirvana and led zepplin isnt going to get you through life, faggot. this is real hardcore, passionate music. say what you want about "stumbling upon" this. but seriously keep your comments to yourself the next time you don't like something.

  60. L.... A....

    @ItsNotColdEnough Fuck off. Really? You don't know anything about this band and their backgrounds. They have great, passionate music with meaningful lyrics. Don't compare anything to this band. I'm guessing you don't play an instrument at all, so you have no say in what this band reflects, their views and how they play the music. And who cares if a 13 year old girl would have a crush on the band, what makes it a difference when you're making fun of a band that obviously doesnt interest you?

  61. D.... K....

    this band never fails to give me chills.

  62. I.... ....

    @Irishhoodlum000 How is a comment trolling? Negative or positive its what i had to say about the video, if you don't like people commenting then don't scroll down, or don't come to youtube. Also you mean, "loser."

  63. J.... T....

    @ItsNotColdEnough Go troll somewhere else you fucking looser.

  64. J.... T....

    @ItsNotColdEnough Jesus fucking christ your right! No one Does!!! What the fuck are you babbling about.. they got "i just want to be pure" 'From a movie, The basketball diaries, Its in leonardo Di Carprio's Poem.. Tool

  65. N.... H....

    @Roweboat17 Uh....what?
    Are you like, 7?

  66. C.... K....

    @b4ckupn00b yea it is lmao.FUCK U. see?

  67. k.... ....

    @theworldisugly sometimes when you sing with emotion its hard to sing properly you just let it out

  68. N.... H....

    @theworldisugly3 The world isn't ugly, your taste in vocals is.

  69. A.... ....

    It'd be better if he sang properly in the chorus rather than yelling but still a great song!

  70. i.... ....

    One of the best songs I have ever heard.

  71. m.... ....

    I love the beginning to this song !!

  72. A.... m....

    Just can't get enough !

  73. T.... R....

    Awesome..

  74. D.... S....
