Killswitch Engage - It Falls On Me Lyrics






It all falls on me. Brings me to my knees
This feeling that’s inside. Where’s the peace that you promised me?
Desolation fills this hollow heart. Seeking all the answers as we drift apart
Where is the light? Where’s the sanctity in this choir of voices that deceive?
In disarray I find a place to come undone
Then all of my anger, all of my pain, bleeds into something I can’t contain
Release me from this moment. Left here with nothing to hold on to
Your voice is still speaking, my vision is clear and through the distance I feel you near
You don’t see me, you can’t hear. My voice left me with nothing, without a choice
Memories of what could have been. Remind me it will never be the same again. It falls on me

  1. J.... I....

    I got the goosebumps and that euphoric rush in my body. Holy shit this is epic.

  2. M.... J....

    Honestly this is one of my favorite...it is always heartbreaking to hear "You dont see me, you cant hear my voice, left me with nothing without a choice, memories of what could have been. Remind me it will never be the same again"

  3. M.... W....

    Cool music

  4. B.... B....

    "All of my anger, all of my pain, bleeds into something that i cant contain".. Thats deep... I felt that on 1000 levels.

  5. R.... F....

    I just don't like the gargorlye sounds.

  6. g.... ....

    And not a single curse word

  7. D.... S....

    Jesse leaches greatest work in this song

  8. O.... W....

    This song is helpjn so much right now.

    O.... W....

    Odell Weaver Minus2Muskegon I cant stop crying this song was made for us thank you Jesse leach I love you so Much

  9. R.... P....

    I really love KsE, but honestly i miss the metalcore style like "alive or just breathing" album

  10. z.... ....

    i'll dread the day kse will do millenial pop instead of metal.

  11. S.... S....

    ITTT FAAAAAALLLLSS!!!!

  12. v.... d....

    This song is incredible..perfectly blended..hardcore metal an hard rock ballad..get goosebumbs everytime i hear it..

  13. B.... T....

    I still think there older stuff is harder

  14. M.... ....

    que gran tema!!

  15. D.... S....

    Jesse made me cry on this one

  16. D.... S....

    This song made me a official Jesse nutt hugger love his conviction and passion

  17. S.... S....

    This is also in my top 3 favourite KsE songs of all time. I have heard ever song and love each one, but this one here, just absolutely amazing, best song on Incarnate. So emotional, hits you so hard at the heart man.

  18. H.... 7....

    I've listened to this song many times and I always feel the emotion behind the lyrics, but it hit me hard today. Brought me to my knees crying out every word. Thank you Jesse Leach

  19. A.... R....

    God I love this song! They should make a music video out of this!

  20. R.... C....

    Jesse's melodic clean vocals sound great here. Too bad, not that great when he's singing live.

  21. J.... W....

    they better with Howard jones.

    J.... W....

    Your opinion. And I disagree wholeheartedly.

  22. V.... t....

    I left my dog behind to move in with my girlfriend(current wife), my mother wasted no time in giving away my beloved dog who I have not seen since. This song reminds me of it every time I listen.

  23. p.... g....

    Uau boa

  24. S.... S....

    One of the few bands where I love every single song and can listen to each one over and over. Have all their albums, seen them live and will forever support them. Thank you for making this music.

  25. S.... S....

    You don’t see me, you can’t hear my voice. Left me with nothing, without a choice.
    Memories of what could have been. Remind me it will never be the same again.

    This verse is so powerful OMFG so emotional.

  26. r.... f....

    Awesome album! Just was checkin out TIMES OF GRACE who's another band, members of Killswitch Engage are in! So good! \m/

  27. A.... H....

    Love this song

  28. N.... T....

    This is a truly beautiful song xx

  29. c.... b....

    Fuck yeah

  30. t.... !....

    Man...this popped on the way home from work and WOW this is the first song to ever make me cry then I got mad for being emotional for a minute

  31. M.... ....

    I really love the difference of this song to the others on the album. Most of the others kind of follow the KSE formula, but this one is really emotional in a depressing kind of way and i love it

  32. R.... P....

    My number one band of all time,second comes Metallica.Its hard to put anyone in front of Killswitch when you listen to all of their songs.They should be mentioned in the rock n'roll HOF just saying

  33. D.... P....

    I fuckin love this band, I want more and more

  34. C.... B....

    This Or Loyalty should have a MV such great songs!

  35. G.... S....

    I love this song

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

    31 people must have hit the thumbs down button by accident. This is one of the most powerful, passionate songs that I have ever heard

  37. J.... 2....

    This song is still nothing to old school KSE... the arms of sorrow will always be there best song

    J.... 2....

    JD 240sx en lo personal, me encanta esta cancion, but the arms of sorrow it's totally the best. Sin dudas

    J.... 2....

    Arms of sorrow is "old school KSE"? LMAO!

    J.... 2....

    Old school lol...try RIIIIISE INSIIIIDE!

  38. V.... _....

    1:28 and beyond 😍😥

  39. R.... ....

    2:01 <3 <3 <3

  40. D.... S....

    This is jesses best vocal work to date and it shows and his cleans have so much passion and pain and only he can make it sound the way it does bc that's Jesses style of singing everything in conviction

  41. D.... S....

    Jesse just keeps getting better and better and has a soulful voice and his growls are more polish and he is a living legand !!

  42. W.... m....

    🔥⏳🌹💀KsE💀🌹⌛🔥

  43. M.... ....

    minha banda favorita

  44. D.... P....

    Such a powerful song from an amazing band. They don't have any bad songs in my opinion!!

  45. D.... D....

    desperate times anyone?

  46. V.... b....

    MAKE HOWARD KSE AGAIN

    V.... b....

    No thanks. I don't want to listen to another sappy love song/emo-trash simply suger-coated with a booming voice.

    Howard's stint with KSE started out well(probably because a lot of the songs were co-written by Jesse right before he left). But the quality of the lyrics got worse for each album, and the band was getting softer and softer. The last album with Howard was unbearable trash that I'll never listen to ever again. I'm so glad Jesse is back and you can actually feel the renewed energy in the songs.

  47. T.... ....

    I love the bass in this song. it really shines through

  48. D.... B....

    That 0:30 mark is so good, DESOLATION!

  49. D.... W....

    April 8th I'll see you guys in Detroit

  50. A.... P....

    So many 90's feels....

  51. J.... ....

    Killswitch Engage came back with this album, remind me back in the days with the old albums.

  52. J.... T....

    You don’t see me, you can’t hear my voice. l=Left me with nothing, without a choice.
    Memories of what could have been. Remind me it will never be the same again. It falls on me. RIP Mom

  53. S.... ....

    2:26 - 3:01 perfect

  54. P.... P....

    MY LULLABY!!!

  55. T.... W....

    Probably my favourite song by Jesse.

  56. S.... ....

    Another masterpiece <3

    S.... ....

    Servalath don't call it a masterpiece

    S.... ....

    Javier Romero shit it's a masterpiece to some people bc it moved them differently but I'm sure u got great taste ur killswitch fan and that's a big plus in my book

  57. C.... M....

    If only this song was a couple of minutes longer

  58. J.... J....

    @jessejasta

  59. s.... 4....

    I had to take a break from trying to force myself to like the new A7X and come over to a band that was easy to love when the new album came out.

    s.... 4....

    The first listen through The Stage was a real shock for me. For some reason I thought they would go back to their metalcore roots, but was thoroughly shocked when I heard it was more along the lines of "if Pink Floyd were metal". I really did not like it at first... But, with each listen to the album, I began to like it more and more. If I were only allowed to pick a few songs from the album to keep, I would choose God Damn, Creating God, Higher, and Exist. [ honorable mentions to Simulation and Fermi Paradox ;) ]

  60. T.... R....

    brasil aqui hahaaaa fodaaaa

  61. J.... B....

    I've always thought he said sanity, not sanctity, ._.

  62. A.... M....

    The chorus is my favorite part, honestly. I'm hoping to find another song as beautiful as "Always." This is almost it.

    A.... M....

    Angela Miller I feel you, I only found cut me loose which is similar, I have a BUNCH of songs that are beautiful like always, which is my favorite song, getting tattoos of some of its lyrics in fact, if you'd like me to help you look for songs

  63. J.... D....

    very good indeed

  64. D.... C....

    Masterpiece.

  65. 4.... ....

    A tear fell out at each "Where's the peace". 💔

  66. L.... K....

    I like this kind of music. I freakin love KSE but I prefer softer voice and less screaming.

    L.... K....

    check out Times of Grace bruv

  67. A.... B....

    you don't see me, you can't hear my voice. left me with nothing, without a choice... beautiful.

  68. R.... C....

    from 1:25 to the end I cum tears

  69. d.... ....

    Oh tears
    I see
    Ummm I hope I'm still man
    Imma just cry from the beauty of this song

  70. G.... C....

    this is like staind if they were hardcore...

  71. B.... R....

    yeeeeaaah one year waiting and i cry with this song

  72. i.... ....

    I'm new to Killswitch engaged. Can anyone tell me what r their best songs ?

    i.... ....

    Bullshit!

    i.... ....

    My curse , the end of an heartache, arms of sorrow... oh so many...

    i.... ....

    Well, my personal favorites are:

    -Embrace the Journey, this song, We Carry On (Incarnate)
    -In Due Time, A Tribute to the Fallen (both Disarm the Descent)
    -Reckoning, A Light in a Darkened World, Save Me and Lost (all second self-titled)
    -This Is Absolution, My Curse, Still Beats Your Name, Eye of the Storm, Desperate Times, Reject Yourself (all As Daylight Dies)
    -Take This Oath, When Darkness Falls, Rose of Sharyn, Breathe Life and Hope Is (all The End of Heartache)
    -Fixation on the Darkness, My Last Serenade, Just Barely Breathing, Temple from the Within, The Element of One (one of my all-time favorites by them), and Vide Infra (all off of Alive or Just Breathing, often considered their best album)
    -Irreversal, Soilborn, Numb Sickened Eyes, and One Last Sunset (all their first self-titled, debut album)

    Don't let the bickering about which vocalist is better deter you from either vocalists' works. Both Jesse and Howard have put out some amazing works.

    i.... ....

    Everything.

  73. E.... l....

    UGHH this song is fckn busted! <3

  74. N.... ....

    When you feel like the weight of the entire universe is on your shoulders. Everything comes down to something you need to do or shouldn't have done. There's no getting off the hook. Life is always a struggle.

  75. m.... ....

    That part beginning with "In disarray" gets me every time. The hairs on my arms either stand up or I'm moved to tears.

  76. G.... i....

    nipples nipples on me

  77. T.... D....

    "You don’t see me, you can’t hear my voice, left me with nothing, without a choice
    Memories of what could have been. Remind me it will never be the same again."

    This line is so beautifully haunting.

    T.... D....

    The Dude From Denmark reminds me of my ex, we broke up two months ago. It blows, this song helps though

    T.... D....

    Javier Romero yes it's a guitar duh lol

    T.... D....

    Right in the feels man. So much emotion in this song you can feel it.

    T.... D....

    @Javier Romero yes it is,it's octaves

    T.... D....

    Memories of what could have been makes no sense. Lol if it didn’t happen then it can’t be a memory

  78. S.... N....

    Not the best song on the album but still better than the last 3 albums with Howard. It ran it's course and for the true old school fan we are happy. Howard is awesome respect his work with DYK. Just feels like they are back.

    S.... N....

    Really? I actually rank this song as #1 from Incarnate. I've been a KsE fan since 2004 and this song honestly ranks amongst my Top 3. Jesse's vocals on this song are absolutely beautiful and the lyrics are powerful.

    S.... N....

    It's a good song we all have our own tastes. I knew about this band before they were signed. The demo I heard if course I was in the scene. Triumph through tragedy, Alone I stand & Quiet distress are my favorites but I like the while album.

    S.... N....

    That's awesome man!! I wish I lived in the New England area when they were playing local shows.

  79. B.... ....

    You dont see me
    You cant hear my voice
    Left me with nothing without a choice
    Memories of what could have been
    Remind me itll never be the same again
    <\3 Why you do dis😢

  80. w.... ....

    Really want a music video done for this masterpiece.

  81. E.... P....

    #killswitchengageforever

    E.... P....

    #Bringbackhoward - now where is my popcorn?

  82. M.... ....

    It all falls on me!!!

  83. D.... K....

    one of the best songs by KSE.

  84. E.... W....

    in the middle sounds like corey taylor. but not hate. im die hard kse all the way

    E.... W....

    lol i thought the same

    E.... W....

    but damn had no idea jessie could sing like that. sounds awesome. my favorite part of this song

  85. P.... ....

    This and Desperate Times are two of my favourite KsE songs. Probably because they are both very emotional and downtempo songs. Great album by the way.

    P.... ....

    +fct4life I love the shoegaze-styled feel of both of those songs, they're both two of my favorites as well. Desperate Times is definitely my favorite of Howard's work with the band, but as for Jesse... this, Embrace the Journey, and The Element of One are my favorites of his.

  86. S.... ....

    I like this band so much, the music is awesome!
    Jesse is a great man, I like his thoughts, his approach about the things and his voice. These lyrics with the music have brought me through some hard moments of my life. Thanks for it KsE!

  87. O.... S....

    This song hits me so fucking hard man.. Brings back a lot of sad memories! This is my favorite song from this album! The lyrics man!! A fucking masterpiece wish they played this song when I saw them live!:( best album of 2016 in my opinion #favoriteband

  88. t.... ....

    This really is a heart breaking song. The harmonies within it are beautiful, but very haunting. You can definitely feel the pain Jesse was dealing with when they were working on the album.

    t.... ....

    @supernaturalterror I get your sarcasm and humor, yet im not laughing... where I live 2nd degree is like finishin high school music school.

    t.... ....

    @supernaturalterror no

    t.... ....

    @Malapropify dude STFU if it was Howard you would of kept quiet.I get so sick of this Howard vs jesse bs it's like left vs right in politics it's nonsense.Everybpdy watch out we got a YouTube expert they have a "degree" cough cough bullshit alert cough

    t.... ....

    He said he wrote this song at his lowest point during the writing of the album

    t.... ....

    Malapropify Jesse screams too , difference between singing and growling or screaming bud

  89. b.... ....

    This song fucking slays. It's crazy how many different tempo's it has and jesse's vocals on here are just ridiculous. One thing I really love about this album is how much soul it has. Jesse really went all out with his song writing for this album and it's safe to say killswitch isn't even close to done. I'm hoping for at least 3 more albums.

  90. G.... ....

    how could you dislike this?!?!

  91. M.... T....

    WHERE'S THE BEEF, THAT YOU PROMISED ME?

    WHERE'S THE BEEF!

  92. j.... ....

    kse is the shit! been listening to them since 2002

  93. E.... B....

    this album is a little to soft for me, but with that said these dudes are amazing musicians and amazing people. Im glad they are still around killing it everywhere they go!

  94. J.... M....

    Jesse ranks this among his top favorite 3 Killswitch songs overall. Let that sink in :)
