Imagine Dragons - Lost Cause Lyrics






Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
'Cause I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

Wait, all this time that I have spent away
Makes me think that I might be okay
The kiss of death will have to wait
My head, is holding on to all those things you said
You taught me to be strong and get through it, the mist of darkness
In my head

Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
'Cause I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

Wait, no one said what's lost cannot be found
You are here to make it safe and sound
Oh we, can make it, out alive
Fate, hath its way when all that's learned is sin
Nothing really matters in the end
As long, as you, are with me, friend

Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
'Cause I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

No one can understand me
Like you can understand
No one can fill your shadow
'Cause you are all I am

Oh, dig my shallow grave
It's not me you'll save
'Cause I'm a lost cause
I'm a lost cause
A lost, lost cause

  4. S.... ....

    Can someone dig my shallow grave

  5. R.... B....

    I don't mean to sound dramatic but I'm going through a rough time and this is my daily cycle.

    This reminds me if twenty-one pilots ||-//

  8. I.... M....

    Snape and Lily

  9. J.... T....

    The Weekend would have been a good back up feat. for this song !1

  10. Z.... M....

    I feel like I've heard this a million times, but I haven't ever heard it before.

  11. b.... b....

    Twenty one pilots vibes

  12. S.... ....

    I wish this got popular. It's not even on some music streaming platforms.

  13. K.... B....

    Me: *listening Imagine Dragons songs on Spotify*
    "Hmm, this song has a good melody, which song is it exactly? Hmm, maybe it's Lost Cau-... Sh*t, turn off the volu-... This time, you won. You got me, and my ears. But next time..."

    **I listened to my list about 10 times in a few days. I could defend my ears only one time. Dan, you're good at these battles.**

  14. Q.... S....

    I want yhos on spotify

  15. C.... W....

    Girl i love you but my grave is already dug just sprinkle my ashes and let me swim through the earth yeah right there is nothing but darkness after death a sleeping darkness

  16. W.... y....

    This is track is rare coming from imagine dragons, a deep dark song. This sounds a lot more like
    " linkin park" great job done👍 we want more of these.

  17. K.... W....

    Maybe 5.5 million of them 5.6 million views are just me listening to this over and over again.

  18. T.... P....

    Again! Why does every song I hear make me think of something Aedra related?

    Yes, I do have an emotional attachment to Ian. But still, why do I share a fictional (in this universe anyway) characters attachment to and almost share his emotions towards said fictional characters similarly fictional dead sister? Yes, I created (or as I call it, perceived) them, but I should not have this strong of an emotional and general attachment to a fictional character.

  19. N.... J....

    Really random comment... but I always link this song to TWD game series, which I'm a massive fan of.

    I first heard the song around the same time as the season 2 finale, and this song always makes me think of Luke's death... cause that hit me so hard lol. And this song hits really hard too, it practically sent 17y/o me into a depressed state for a week or so along with the game. The song fits so well with that idea of choice and being able to save someone, and then the idea that everything ultimately can seem pretty hopeless. I think Luke's a pretty similar guy to Dan Reynolds as well haha

  20. I.... K....

    Me singing this dramatically, pretending to rip my shirt
    Brilliant song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I have no words. It´s so deep and desperate and beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  21. G.... H....

    This would fit to a Vader/ Anakin tribute 🤔

  22. N.... O....

    I want to meet this person so bad dnt hve money right now to to a show

  23. K.... M....

    Imagine dragons are the only people that can calm me down and with the amount of stress I have they need to keep making music for a long time

  24. T.... R....

    All I can think of with this is how I could convince someone else not to kill themselves and even said that their emotions were clouding their judgement, there are so many options. All that, but I couldn't even convince myself... I could never pull the trigger, but I wanted nothing more than my life to end, and I still think it would have been better to do it at times...so I find distractions. This song, and others, reminds me that I need to face my demons, I can't keep running.

  25. S.... ....

    Edit: this song is from a Frankenweenie OST. 🤔

    D.... S....

    Yes it does, u can get it on Spotify!!

    D.... S....

    If you search Frankenweenie on Spotify (the movie this song is from) and scroll down you’ll find the song.

    D.... S....

    @eevaa eevaa what shit are you on. The track is from frankenweenie "unleashed", both of which are not on spotify, and this song does exist out of youtube, the song was released before they went global, why the track on the their channel says it's in a different country, I don't know. did you really come all this way to talk shit to a random comment someone posted on a four year old video, and then be proved you were wrong?

  40. M.... M....

    HOW DID I JUST FIND THIS

  41. V.... 1....

    "Imagine Dragons are the world's most hated band" - People who have only heard Thunder and Whatever it Takes which still arent bad songs

  49. A.... T....

    This was so intriguing. It felt as if it's a story and I'm waiting to see what's to come next, sitting on the edge of the my seat! I liked it! I was hoping for a last chorus saying he lost his lost cause, but oh! It was still amazing!

  50. A.... S....

    0:23 - 0:45
    When you KO a shiny Pokemon that’s also rare
    When you KO that Pokemon you spent ages looking for
    When your Pokemon knocks itself out and you have no one else
    When you failed the test
    When you missed the homework
    When you get detention
    When you have plans but they get cancelled
    When you lose your fave toy
    When you get homework for Friday and Saturday
    When you wake up on Monday
    Edit:
    When you lose to anyone
    When you KO a Pokemon 3 times in a row
    When that stupid f***er who has ruined your life turns up and takes that victory from you

    This is stuff from my life

    D.... ....

    When no one replies to your comment so you think your lost in the sea of comments

    D.... ....

    Ah ma gawd!

  63. A.... A....

    RIP my human life

  64. l.... a....

  65. F.... ....

    Why does this sound like reversed?

  66. M.... R....

    O:22 RIP all headphone user...

  67. �.... �....

    Still wonder why this song is not in spotify for one of my favourit Imagine dragons songs of all time for sure in top5 and its not in spotify :(

    �.... �....

    it's not on spotify because it's from the frankenweenie unleashed soundtrack.

    �.... �....

    It is actually. If you search Frankenweenie on Spotify (the movie this song is from) and scroll down you’ll find the song.

  68. E.... Y....

  75. N.... S....

    0:22 me when I hear this song

  76. J.... M....

    This song is ironic, imagine dragons is everything but a lost cause.

  77. s.... ....

    The music in the beginning just pulls me into another world with how it sounds

  78. S.... R....

    5 million views brother!

  79. T.... ....

    I'm so pissed because this an album only

  80. J.... M....

    kinda sounds like I Need Something by Twenty One Pilots

  85. A.... L....

    I don't know why this song isn't in spotify

  86. N.... ....

    Its illl dig my grave

    N.... ....

    I looked it up its not, also "ill dig my shallow grave, its not me youll save" is pretty much Ill dig my own grave you wont save me
    instead of Dig me a grave cause you wont save me, which makes sense due to him not caring about himself so if you care to dig him a grave make it shallow. Thats how i'd explain it but it is oh, you can look it up if you wish

    N.... ....

    The Unkn0wn Gamers thanks

  87. P.... F....

    kinda would fit in with mass Effect or something

  88. P.... F....

    the minute I started to listen to this song I knew I had a new favorite song

  89. S.... ....

    It could just be me, but the beginning sounds a bit like the Yume Nikki ending theme.

  90. T.... A....

    Your description is painful to read.

  91. R.... M....

    It's sad that nobody gets the message of the song..or the true feelings. ;-;

  92. O.... D....

    First time hearing this song: "I'm not impressed."
    Next day when I wake up: "OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

  93. n.... p....

    I was at school today. We had a PE lesson. Here is a conversation between me and one of my classmates:

    Classmate: Why do you like Imagine Dragons?
    Me: 😒
    Classmate: They sing really well and their lyrics are good, but most of their songs are terrible.
    Me: 😡

    Should I kill her or not?

    n.... p....

    kill. Nobody hates on my fave band

    n.... p....

    I'm totally going to do so. I hate people who hate ID

  94. Y.... �....
