Dance Gavin Dance - Lost Lyrics






I am lost.
Need a god.
Somewhere to go when it’s all over.
I am blind.
Give me eyes.
Kaleidoscope the world in color.

Don’t have time to meditate the meaning of the rain.
Synchronize our memories til we all think same way.

Cuz I get lost.
Need a god.
Help me put my world in order.

I don’t wanna know the truth.
(I conceive a better way to lie.)
I just need feel secure again.
(The witnesses evaded.)
Codify my wasted youth.
(Everywhere I look I feel the weight.)
So I don’t feel this meaningless again.
(So wait it out now.)

Tickle my animal instincts, survive.
Capable, sociable subject, I’m part of the pack.

I know a guy,
somewhere,
whose got a guy,
from town,
who knows a guy,
from around,
whose gotta die.

We crave a greater existence, survive.
Attainable, modified purpose.
I’m part of the pack.

I know a guy,
somewhere,
whose got a guy,
from town,
who knows a guy,
from around,
whose gotta die.

I know a guy,
somewhere,
whose got a guy,
from town,
who knows a guy,
from around,
whose gotta die.

Citizen of the world.

I called my sister’s cousin, uncle, friend, made sure to trust them time and time again.

I am lost.
Need a god.
Somewhere to go when it’s all over.
I am blind.
Give me eyes.
Kaleidoscope the world in color.

Don’t have time to meditate the meaning of the rain.
Synchronize our memories til we all think same way.

Cuz I get lost.
Need a god.
Help me put my world in order.

Oh no, he said a bad word.
We should burn him at the stake,
desecrate his name,
spit on him from high horses.
Exaggerate the shame.
He’s ignorant and vulgar.
So evil we can tell,
he’ll surely rot in hell.
A homophobic sociopath, a menace to us all.

He’ll take the fall.

The group is never ending.
The group grew from decay.
The group is darkness, father.
Heaven selected the truth as pain.

...the fall.

The group is never ending.
The group grew from decay.
The group is darkness, father.
Heaven selected the truth as pain.

  1. M.... ....

    SOMEWHERE TO GO WHEN ITS ALL OVER!!! I love this song so much

  2. K.... K....

    "Oh no, he said a bad word"
    Me: Pewdiepie?

  3. P.... A....

    Good heavens i love dgd

  4. s.... ....

    2:14 this part sounds beautiful.....the lyrics are not very poetic, but it's just the way they were delivered that makes it stand out.

  5. S.... A....

    This group is fucking my playlist from behind. 10/10

  6. M.... C....

    The end of this song is so fucking great

  7. K.... K....

    Love this song, but it always jumpscares me when I'm using autoplay. It's recorded so loud!

  8. C.... ....

    i didnt really like the first half of this song, but the second half is sooooooo good.

  9. Z.... ....

    I think that anyone who attributes this song to any one person or group is the type of person that the song is talking about.






    Which by technicality makes me that type of person.

  10. c.... G....

    So much meaning in those lyrics.

  11. O.... T....

    YouTube:
    2:14

  12. B.... C....

    "He is ignorant and vulgar
    So evil we can tell
    A sochiophobic homophob a menace to us all"
    This part is a total truth today.We live in an extroverted world where most of the teens live after the rule:Party -drink- fuck -live -be cool.It's enough to have a diferent opinion or liking something else apart from what's considered "cool" today to be an idiot and a freak to everybody.This is wrong but we can't change that people today agree with exegerated feminism and overreact to people who said that being gay isn't ok.And the same with the popuparity if you are not dressed like a rich kid or not act like one they think you are antisocial(they probably don't even knew what this word really ment)and a nerd.Suicidal persons and mentally ill people aren't a serios subject to them.I wished they could all understand this.I'm only 14 and I do why can't they at least consider this?

  13. D.... J....

    If Dragonforce went post hardcore lol

  14. U.... ....

    Is no one going to mention 1:34?

  15. G.... C....

    Heaven selected the truth as pain

  16. f.... a....

    Anybody notice that this song is louder than the others?

  17. O.... F....

    4 years and still in love

  18. V.... ....

    One of the most underrated DGD songs of all

  19. J.... R....

    2:15 when you call someone a faggot on Tumblr/Reddit/Facebook

  20. S.... ....

    Wait, is this a song defending Jonny?

    S.... ....

    Oh my goodness, DGD is a band that makes music, not a meta-group that likes to reference itself all the time.

    S.... ....

    +Sean Billington Bitch u got me fucked up on some shit I didnt even say, pipe down

    S.... ....

    Scynthor the first half seems to be about how people let politics and group mentality dictate their mindset instead of thinking for themselves. From the bridge onwards it sounds like they’re referencing some common criticisms of Donald Trump with a hint of irony, for example “oh no he said a bad word” “so evil we can tell, he’ll surely rot in hell, a homophobic sociopath a menace to us all”

  21. N.... W....

    Music like this makes life worth living

  22. D.... ....

    Is this song a slam against YouTube's censorship and Feminism? Because if so it makes me love this song so much more.

    D.... ....

    Wait til you hear bloodsucker of their new album.

    D.... ....

    Duna nah I don’t think it’s about YouTube or feminism in particular it’s more about mindless group mentalities

  23. S.... M....

    These are good lyrics.. Better than songs like awkward for sure.

  24. C.... S....

    😭love this song

  25. B.... ....

    Fall of troy ass sounding song

  26. Y.... O....

    The end of this song, from th "oh no he said a bad word" until the end, just give chills all over my spine.

  27. C.... S....

    dgd knew about Mike Pence 3 years before. They freaking knew and we didnt listen

    C.... S....

    Casual Soup I think you missed the point of the song

  28. J.... S....

    Whats the meani g behind this song?

    J.... S....

    Jeremy Smith the emptiness and need of a god to believe in

  29. C.... A....

    Wish I could go back to 2015 when this album came out, it was a great time

  30. J.... H....

    Perfectly summarizes our current political climate.

  31. M.... T....

    Least favorite closer but I still love it. Still evokes an emotion in me; one of bitter coldness. This album ended on a chilling note, heh

  32. P.... S....

    Why the fuck does 'awkward' have like 1.5 million views but this has under 500k??? This is the best track on this album by a fucking mile

  33. D.... K....

    Tillian has such a pretty voice. I'd love to hear him cover an old SWS song, i feel he wouls nail it.

  34. m.... s....

    Sad that this song literally describes my life , smh .

  35. W.... ....

    I swear 1:34 is an Opeth reference... That was so surprising haha

  36. e.... ....

    TruuuUUuuuUUuuuuuoooooooooooooooooooooooth <3

  37. e.... ....

    gsl brought me here

  38. L.... B....

    Tickle my animal instincts, survive.
    Capable sociable subject
    I'm part of the pack

    I know a guy, somewhere,
    Whose got a guy,
    From town,
    Who knows a guy, from around,
    Whose gotta die.

    We crave a greater existence survive.
    Attainable modified purpose
    I'm part of the pack

    Man I love this song.

  39. Z.... ....

    I literally can't understand anything and I love this song

  40. J.... R....

    I love these past two albums. I hope they do at least one more with Tilian and Jon, they're such an awesome combo.

    J.... R....

    This october you will experience another masterpiece of the ultimate combo :)

    J.... R....

    +WoeisEuTu [&] hopefully :)

  41. U.... M....

    Needs more views

  42. M.... ....

    Oh no he said a bad word
    We should burn him at the stake
    Desiccate his name

    When that part starts it makes the rest of the song irrelevant it's so good

    M.... ....

    That part of the song is when you say the word fag on Facebook or tumblr

    M.... ....

    It's an attack against the left which is fucking awesome

  43. M.... ....

    Circa survive vibes

  44. L.... C....

    I hope dance Gavin dance and hands like houses do a duet

  45. L.... ....

    Heaven selected the truth as PAIN! I love Jon Mess~~ <3

  46. I.... ....

    "codify my wasted youth"

  47. B.... ....

    I like how this song applies both to religions, cults and movements like Social Justice.

    B.... ....

    I know right,it makes me think of how a lot of American religion n how stupid everyone is with it like how the f*** are you going to convert to a religion when you don't even know anything about it really people are so judgemental even when it says in the Holy Bible only god can judge us people want to be religious freaks but don't even know a damn thing about their own practicing how the f*** are you going to convert to something that you have no idea about it's just straight ignorance

    B.... ....

    +BrainSeepsOut Fuck social justice warriors

  48. I.... N....

    I know a guy, somewhere, whose got a guy, from town, whose knows a guy, from around, whose gotta die
    WTF

  49. A.... ....

    Jon, Will, and Matt have always been my favorite parts of DGD. I really hope Tillian stays through at least two more albums though. We need DGD songs that feature Jonny and Kurt.

  50. C.... O....

    How people react when you cuss around kids  2:14 to 2:45

    C.... O....

    Feels like a reference to one of their shows at home where they almost got shut down for cussing on stage during a track.

    C.... O....

    @Domo Murphy Seriously?

  51. T.... ....

    only 3 good songs on this album... smh, tillian was amazing on acceptance but this is trash.

  52. j.... ....

    4  8  15  16  23  42

  53. C.... C....

    I fucken love this song 😍🎶💜

  54. Y.... ....

    "Oh no he said a bad word

    We should burn him at the stake, desecrate his name, spit on him from high horses exaggerate the shame

    He's ignorant and vulgar
    So evil we can tell, he'll surely rot in hell, a homophobic sociopath a menace to us all
    He'll take the fall"

    I feel like these lyrics sum up the absolute narcissism of modern youth. I hate to be that "Wow this generation sucks shit" faggot, but wow this generation sucks shit.

    Y.... ....

    @DellortGaming VIDZ Well then I apologize.

    Y.... ....

    @Swagu-Senpai, Yo Glad we could get that sorted up.

    Y.... ....

    you know this songs about how the Holly bible is judgmental and mean

    Y.... ....

    +Andrew Malamis no, it's about society's popular opinionated judgment ALONG WITH religious judgment. everyone thinks their way is the right way; so I'm lost on what's the truth.

    Y.... ....

    Dcon .. because musicians have never used religious themes as metaphors to describe something else and it’s definitely not as if the bible has remained relevant and mirrored societies for centuries or anything

  55. B.... S....

    Oh, no. He said a bad word!

  56. w.... ....

    Unreal. SO GOOD

  57. M.... S....

    When he's about to sing "Tickle my animal instincts, survive"
    I always expect him to say " Tickle my anus all the way inside"





    I probably should not have shared that with y'all.

    M.... S....

    xD I'm glad you did. Jesus..

  58. M.... G....

    Imagine if DGD never went anywhere and never happened.. All of Jon Mess's creativity and deep critical thinking would never be known..

  59. J.... Y....

    Usually, I prefer instrumental DGD. I think the screaming just gets in the way of the math rocky guitar and awesome drums. But this... I can dig this.

  60. S.... B....

    9 people got lost

  61. k.... k....

    Now THAT, my fellow people, is how to end an album!!!

  62. j.... p....

    Anyone else take this song as describing how silly religion is and how serious people get over it. And the last lines basically saying that group of people are never ending, and won't change. Idk just me lol

  63. S.... _....

    Wow this album wow. 9 people missed the like button tho.

  64. H.... R....

    Welcome to the GSL!

  65. M.... ....

    Love this song. Can anyone say what it's about?

    M.... ....

    no more mayo.

    M.... ....

    @martin bianchini But... why? .-. 

    M.... ....

    it's super metaphoric.

    M.... ....

    Seems that way, but what does the metaphor meeeean? I must know now. cx

  66. B.... G....

    I feel like this song is saying that we all have our own opinion, and if someone is a "homophobe" or just have their own way of thinking, we should not hate them.

    B.... G....

    Brandon Garcia I think that line is about how quick a lot of people are to try and paint trump and various other controversial figures as homophobes when they’re clearly not

  67. P.... R....

    These dudes all synchronize together so perfectly, this music is the lords music.

  68. A.... ....

    I am lost,
    Need a dog,
    I think I'm gonna name him Rover.

  69. A.... D....

    I got lost reading the lyrics

  70. p.... ....

    @2:42 I always scream my heart out to this part, to the point where my voice cracks and my girlfriend finds me unattractive.

  71. C.... G....

    Dance Gavin Dance saved my life with his songs gave me a hope and a reason to live safe from the madness me and myself Thanks to all members of Dance Gavin Dance me you saved the life spend all my money by buying all their albums are my favorite band since many years ago I thank you wholeheartedly maybe nobody will take much attention to this comment but I wanted to thank you keep writing these songs so wonderful . Thanks: ,) )

  72. n.... j....

    Tillian,please please please don't quit DGD.lol

  73. A.... C....

    This is the best song in the album lyric-wise.

  74. A.... T....

    i had an ad pop up in the middle of the song.... fuck you youtube

  75. Y.... ....

    I called my sister’s, cousin, uncle, friend, made sure to trust them time and time again. This totally reminds me of "People You Know"

  76. m.... s....

    That fucking intro though :3

    m.... s....

    @mason sieber One of the best intros I've ever heard!

  77. b.... ....

    This song would make an amazing anime intro!!

  78. E.... C....

    anyone else get one of the misprinted copies of the album?

    E.... C....

    What is the misprint? What's wrong with it?

    E.... C....

    The lyrics printed on the inside are wrong on the last page. Eagle vs Crows lyrics are under Lost and Lost lyrics are under Eagle vs Crow and Death of a Srawberry and Variation lyrics are mixed up as well.

    E.... C....

    @Edwin Contreras YES

    E.... C....

    yes! I did!! except the misprint was on my vinyl record lyric sheet thing ):

  79. I.... S....

    Yesssss
    Chorus is ridiculously catchy

  80. T.... W....

    1:33 gives me such an eargasm oh god

  81. T.... W....

    AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT FREAKED THE HELL OUT WHEN TILIAN SAID "DESECRATE"? ALL THAT WORD MAKES ME THINK OF IS "CONTENTS WITHIN" BACK WHEN HE WAS IN TIDES OF MAN

  82. A.... M....

    Need to* feel**

  83. D.... C....

    This band is amazing. Sounds like how sleeping with sirens new stuff should be. But they are still awesome as well

  84. C.... D....

    "I know a guy, somewhere, whose got a guy, from town, whose knows a guy, from around, whose gotta die"
    Once I knew this guy who knew this guy who knew this guy who knew this guy....... who knew this guy's cousin

  85. I.... d....

    uma das melhores...

  86. R.... F....

    What have I been missing on?!

  87. A.... M....

    the verse starting with "oh no he said a bad word" is really good up to the phrase "a homophobic sociopath a menace to us all." am i just interpreting it wrong or is dgd defending someone who got shit for saying faggot (bad word, burn him at the stake [ironic over-exaggeration], homophobic) or something of that nature?

    i really hope one of my fav bands wouldnt defend homophobia

    A.... M....

    It's more or less a nod at hypocrisy, it says homophobic once as a way of describing whoever he song is talking about. "He said a bad word! He's an immoral human being! So we should all treat this person like shit even though that would make us no better than he is!" See what I'm saying?

    A.... M....

    @Alec Melancon They're not defending homophobia in this song. They are defending the actions of someone who was shamed and punished greatly over such a little thing by oversensitive people.

    People nowadays are so soft-skinned that the lightest things in the world will offend them such that they'll "spit at you from their high horses" or call you homophobic (even racist).

    The person Tillian plays in the song is someone who joins this group of people (when he says "I'm part of the pack") and begins to adopt their stupid ways at being offended over anything. May be he does it to fit in maybe he does it to protect himself from their dangerous idiocy.

  88. J.... D....

    Probably my favorite song. Though it keeps changing. Amazing album overall. But holy shit, Jon and Will screaming back and forth starting at 1:09.

    J.... D....

    I never knew it was will in the backround i thought it was all Jon

  89. L.... R....

    Not only is this song amazing but the pure instrumentals are absolutely insane. Everyone's all over the place and yet they all mesh perfectly. DGD does it again with this album

  90. d.... ....

    It completely blows my mind how amazing, creative and original every track is by DGD. I have been hooked on this band like a crackhead ever since I randomly came across "Lemon Meringue Tie" right after Downtown Battle Mountain was released.. Gotta get my daily fix lol... If I were told that I could only choose one band/artist to listen to for the rest of my life I would be perfectly content with nothing other than Dance Gavin Dance. In my eyes, they exemplify the definition of musical pioneers... Thank the Lord above for bringing these guys together in Sacramento for I don't know what on Earth I'd do without them. Every time I hear them jam its like... INSTANT GRATIFICATION (April 14!)

  91. B.... C....

    i absolutely love this song, but On The Run should have ended the album imo

    B.... C....

    +Brittany Caron on the run feels more like acceptance speech than instant gratification js

  92. j.... ....

    "I am lost. Unicorn."

  93. s.... x....

    Everytime I listen to this album i have new and new favorites, #extremelyblessed

  94. T.... C....

    This albums videos have the least hate comments out of any other YouTube video I've seen. Good job dgd.

  95. P.... ....

    This album is so goddamn good.

  96. G.... B....

    "The group is darkness father" - ?

  97. K.... ....

    Every one of these songs is so unmemorable and dull its ridiculous

  98. A.... ....

    From oh no he said a bad word and beyond I get so damn sad haha and I have no reason to be but fuck those lyrics are hard hitting

  99. C.... C....

    Holt shit, this is amazing! O_O

  100. M.... ....

    What a killer closer. The most complete dgd album to date!
