Dangerkids - Countdown Lyrics






Stop and wait, hold your applause
3, 2, 1, but the camera's pause
Lights go out and the frame goes soft
The color's bled and the picture's off
Time, it seems to stop
You get a little bit but not a lot
Dangerous kids, a bunch of misfits
Show you what we got
Yeah, it's on tonight
I'm gone tonight
Playing way too hard just to fall tonight
Believe when I say when it's over
You won't believe anything that you saw tonight
So stop and wave to the silent crowd
3, 2, 1, and the empty sound
Applause, applause
Before we bring the fucking house down

Oh, it's taking control now
Breaking open the gates
And tearing them down
It feeds on the violence
Just a number to them
A face in the crowd
Unbreakable
You're selling yourself like a brand
And don't you know
How much you pay
To sit in the palm of their hand?

I'm just a fake, just a lie
You build it up and I'll break it down
And the truth, yeah, it's mine
And it's really all that I got
And time, it seems to stop
You get a little bit but not a lot
Dangerous kids, a bunch of misfits
Show you what we got

Open your eyes
You're treading water
Before you drown in the truth
Become the lie
I'd die tonight just to feel alive
(You're waking up)
We'll die tonight just to feel alive

This is a countdown to nothing
Here in the palm of my hand
So will you let me destroy you
Like the machine that I am?

And tonight
We'll die tonight just to feel alive

  30. e.... C....

    reminds me alot of our last night - same old war

  31. B.... W....

    Best way to start an album

  32. A.... ....

    Seriously this deserves hella more views especially because this is literally my ultimate FAV song their album!😘

  33. C.... P....

    Please don't stop making music. Although people compare you guys to other bands, I just think it's music. Good music. Music that deserves to be listened to. I enjoy your guys music, to me it's very unique, fun, awesome breakdowns, badass screams, catchy choruses, and etc. Don't, stop. ❤️

    C.... P....

    +Alex Knite Their music is good, although quite repetitive (all their songs have the same pattern, that even you are describing there) and most importantly, they're quite empty and commercial, which sucks.

    C.... P....

    +Serckep You just dissed this band entirely and made it seem like a positive comment... You serious?

  34. B.... G....

    funk yah shark week

  35. K.... L....

    its so ridiculous danger kids aren't big yet...

  36. R.... M....

    Love this. Kinda reminds me of Escape the Fate and Falling in Reverse. A bit different,but love the rapping with the vocals. New fan.

  37. D.... B....

    the From Ashes To New feel i get from this is awesome!!

    D.... B....

    I'm just saying...you put Dangerkids, FATN, Limp Bizkit, and Linkin Park all on a stage, they all are the same "genre" but are completely different sounds.
    Ever hear of Scare Don't Fear? They also have a cool rap-metal thing going.

    D.... B....

    @Dalton Bennett Tagged incase you didn't see that notification.

    D.... B....

    @Jacobi Sparks yeah i completely agree with you! It just reminded me of FATN so i commented saying that!

    D.... B....

    @Dalton Bennett I'm actually mad at myself, I could've seen FATN last month but didn't go...= /

    D.... B....

    @Jacobi Sparks same here.....

  38. d.... c....

    Sounds like CrossFaith and Linkin Park

    d.... c....

    +declan carey Someone agrees!

    d.... c....

    yes!!! I love both

  39. m.... ....

    Enorme, super 
    Et oui des Français écoutent aussi

  40. T.... ....

  41. S.... C....

    I think vokalist type look alive linkin park's vokalist.

  42. M.... V....

    Caralho que som foda !

  43. T.... M....

    It's like a harder, less horny and more talented Hollywood Undead

    T.... M....

    Nah its another style

    T.... M....

    "It's like Hollywood Undead but completely different"

  44. E.... O....

    Why have i only heard of these!? There awesome!

    E.... O....

    +Emma Osborne They're*

  45. P.... T....

    P.... T....

    Sarcasm?

    P.... T....

    A little bit :p

    P.... T....

    P.... T....

    +Karel Pepels seeing them live was amazing! ;D

    P.... T....

    Phil Thomas

    Hahaha, this comment is so old, they have made another album now.

  46. S.... M....

    Probably inspired by Linkin park, Not bad at all though. i Still wish linkin park sounded like this besides that soft garbage they're doing lol XD

    S.... M....

    the lead singer of dangerkids is the son of the lead singer of linkin park

    S.... M....

    @Gangstergames165 seriously? what's his sons name?

    S.... M....

    @Gangstergames165 LOL nope xD

    S.... M....

    listen to Qwerty live in 2006

  47. M.... ....

    Stimpy... <3

    M.... ....

    @Doge HD IsLucho eZ ahre

    M.... ....

    No xD Islucho god lagger, pero lo malo es que los porteños(Gente de buenos aires Arg) son chiteros con x mouse o autoclick porque son pajeros para clickear. xD
    Muy pocos safan, osea que juegan naturalmente mc. :P

    M.... ....

    o seguidores del funes >:v

    M.... ....

    Se xD jajaja pero siempre terminan haciendose los gods y lo unico que hacen es usar el X mouse o Autoclick xD Más que eso no, así son muchos :P

  48. I.... S....

    Listen "Don't Stop" by Innerpartysystem and you gonna find some similarities with this song... like the final part or the mid part o.o

    I.... S....

    Holy shit, I haven't listened to Innerpartysystem since I was like 15, haha.

    I.... S....

    he couldn't time and he couldn't rhyme
    or express himself to save his life
    He'd put his favorite records on
    innerparty and linkin park
    he'd close his eyes and he'd sing along - dangerkids - light escapes. he tells us that innerpartysystem and linkin park were his main influences. and that's what I love because I love both bands.

  49. F.... ,....

    copyright ?

  50. R.... K....

    Sounds like From Ashes To New

    R.... K....

    I think too

    R.... K....

    Reece Kelly Most definitely.

  51. D.... R....

    Crown the Empire: Rise of the Runaways brought me here.

  52. D.... R....

    You want to know what every Dangerkids video in this playlist has in common? They all have comments mentioning Linkin Park. As Dangerkids may have an electronic and rap influence, they certainly aren't similar to Linkin Park in any way. Linkin Park is a heavy metal band that intertwines rap in their music. On the other hand, you have Dangerkids, who have more of a post-hardcore style in their music. 

    D.... R....

    errnnngggkkkkk wrong! the rapping(sounding like mike shinoda) and the chord progressions, and the electronic sound, make them sound like linkin park that's why people are comparing both bands and the only post hardcore element in this are the breakdowns played on 0-0-0-0-0000-00-0000 manner

    D.... R....

    >Heavy metal

    D.... R....

    Do you know what "heavy metal" is? Linkin Park is rock and rap. Dangerkids are rap with metalcore influences, you sir need to learn your self some before talking

  53. k.... ....

    Idc what you think but this sounds like linkin park but with post-hardcore influence xD

    k.... ....

    Yea! Im the best on guessing genres of music YUHU! xDDD

    k.... ....

    @konstanZX2 yeah i was thinking the same, I like that, hope they will search for their own "sound" in future

    k.... ....

    @konstanZX2 this is linkin park

  54. j.... r....

    Seeing these guys Aug. 15th. Can't wait!

  55. R.... ....

    dangerkids sounds just like dangerkids should, nothing more and nothing less :)

  56. Z.... ....

    Hands up if Ninjas In Pyjamas: Reborn brought you here :)

    Z.... ....

    Get_Right and F0rest ultimate duo XD

  57. L.... ....

    so what if they sound like linkin park.. there's really no such thing as original anymore, it's all been done before... even linkin park what? did linkin park rip off every rap or rock band that came before them? nope so.. okay I'm done

  58. B.... H....

    dat drop at 00:51 cant get enough

  59. B.... ....

    Holy fucking shit this band is amazing

  60. K.... M....

    they are heavier n more positive than LP people need to stop being genre whores and comparison cunts just like (or dislike) a band for their music

    K.... M....

    listen to Qwerty live in 2006, idiot

  61. D.... D....

    I would've never known of this band if I haven't been subscribed to Katie since 09

  62. m.... g....

    this band deserves more views, and chester should ft some songs

  63. V.... ....

    Thanks tweeday.

  64. J.... S....

    I may have to get this album.

  65. E.... S....

  70. F.... M....

    Linkin Park + Bring me the Horizon = Dangerkids :D

    F.... M....

    @Hauntyourface More like CTE, Eh?

    F.... M....

    @NNJA Azelph More like Linkin Park and Dead By April.

    F.... M....

    Federico Martin more like LP and Our Last Night/ From Ashes to New

  71. x.... ....

    Early LP influence but fuck more heavier !
    Love the Synth
    Love The Breakdowns
    These guys are Heavy Hitters For Sure

  72. P.... S....

    I almost break my neck listening to their songs

  73. B.... W....

    It's like metal Manafest :O

  74. H.... ....

    Their style sort of reminds me of a mixture between Bullet For My Valentine and Linkin Park. 

    H.... ....

    god....bfmv can suck my ass...

  75. M.... V....

    They have some similar aspects to Linkin Park old school.  But, they have several differences as well.  Overall, they're much better, with the addition of different genres all put into one.  Also, they're transitions are just so dam smooth, best I've heard in a while.

  76. H.... H....

    Goddamn I love this song.

    H.... H....

    Hank aren't you suppose to be doing some propane related activity. Don't make me tell Strickland that you are slacking. 

    H.... H....

    Hank Hill has some damn good music taste, then.

    H.... H....

    Haha that I do

  77. T.... ....

    So ready for Chester to come in at any second......

    T.... ....

    @Storm Gorilon hell yeeee berserk baby

    T.... ....

    fuck Chester

    T.... ....

    Rest in Peace Chester...breaks my heart seeing this comment now

    T.... ....

    Eli Gomez well fuck you too he's gone now because of people like you.

  78. C.... L....

    I have a crush on Katie <3

  79. A.... G....

    Linkin Park was never post-hardcore with breakdowns like Dangerkids' stuff. New era of rock. But all you 17-year-old little trolls wouldn't know about that.

    A.... G....

    12-year-old little trolls*

  80. J.... ....

    is this lincoln parks new album?

    J.... ....

    You're an idiot.

    J.... ....

    no it's the new album of obama street. check em out they're great....

  81. I.... G....

    *Rocking head back in forth* this sounds good

  82. f.... ....

    This is so good, reminds me of linkin park when they were good.

  83. O.... ....

    saw then live 8/30/13 w/ WCAR and Silverstein and chunk no captain chunk and the color morale

    O.... ....

    And now i'm horribly jealous. -3-

    O.... ....

    haha i did to buddie, but not that exact date ;P

  84. d.... d....

    god these guys are good

  85. f.... ....

    This is a great song to listen to while you're playing csgo

    f.... ....

    For deathmatch warm-up, heh.

  86. D.... ....

    Love this band so much. Saw them twice already

  87. E.... ....

    There's an early days LP influence, yes. However they're way heavier than LP ever was... (which is a good thing btw) and LP is just crap nowadays..

  88. x.... ....

    Saw them a couple weeks ago, Best night of my life :D

  89. n.... ....

    I saw them in Houston too, they were some of the nicest guys I have ever met!

  90. Q.... G....

    Haven't heard a band to bring something new to the scene for a while and I'm enjoying it.

  91. V.... S....

    Saw them in Houston, fucking amazing live, and they were really nice when i met them

  92. J.... B....

    I swear this is the new Linkin Park but a 100000000000000x's better. This band is going to have a special place in my heart. Hopefully they don't get big headed like Linkin Park and completely go down a shit route. I'm all for change but as long as it is a good one.

  93. J.... P....

    that's what I was thinking!

  94. m.... ....

    build it up ,burn it down , stomp it out

  95. R.... B....

    I just saw them and got to meet them at Soma last night they were fucking awesome.
