Periphery - Alpha Lyrics






It's always better on the other side of it
Wanting what you never have
It is a goddamn, broken state of mind
Yeah, the one that we've been living in
It's never greener inside the mess we're in
Wanting what you never have
The less we are content the more we throw away
What little time we have left to grow
Separate mind from me
But still I have no adamant will to leave
What little time we have

[Chorus:]
Stop bleeding on the inside, we are alive
And it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white
Can we show the ones who are blind?

It's envy eating away at the core of us
Wanting what you never have
Yeah, isn't it the point of living to breathe
Knowing this is all we need
It's never greener inside the mess we're in
Wanting what you never have
The less we are content the more we throw away
What little time we have left to grow
Separate mind from me
But still I have no adamant will to leave
What little time we have

[Chorus 2x]

Show them that we're not blind!
We're not blind!

[Chorus 2x]

Fly passed the withered trees
Ascend to holy air and breathe
Fly passed the withered trees
Ascend to holy air and breathe
(Separating, drive me crazy, separating mind)

This want is menacing it will not leave us be
Can we purge this?
The bastard in our brain will chew until it bleeds
How did we get like this?
How did we get like this?

Step out in the rain
Feel life in our veins
Step out in the rain
Feel life in our, feel life in our veins

Can we purge this?
The bastard in our brain will chew until it bleeds
How did we get like this?

  1. j.... b....

    why is this in a renegades playlist

  2. N.... D....

    Please tell me I'm not the only one appreciating this in 2020.

  3. E.... H....

    I've been looking for this song for the last 3 hours...couldn't remember the band, title, or lyrics. Now that I found it, it's not as good as I remember. RIP to the last 3 hours

  4. l.... ....

    why does he look like pewdiepie x)

  5. I.... T....

    Pewdiepie really did a great job in this video

  6. C.... ....

    Meh its metal enough. i used to think linkin park was heavy metal as a kid. still sounds sick

  7. A.... N....

    Can't wait to see them Dallas 2-8-20!!!

  8. S.... H....

    did anyone else notice the monitor showing the scarlet (omv) at 2:35

  9. S.... A....

    There’s something really cringey about this band that really kills it for me. The whiny cleans are a tad annoying.

  10. Z.... C....

    Świetny numer!

  11. T.... ....

    Is this what hipster metal sounds like?

  12. T.... L....

    pewdiepie really let himself go

  13. O.... C....

    I can only get so errect, please stop

  14. l.... ....

    4:30 <3

  15. L.... ....

    After all these years I just noticed scarlet is on the tv at 2:40

    L.... ....

    Nvm 2:35

  16. M.... I....

    Is this Pewdielie in alternate dimension ?

  17. j.... k....

    Me encanta la cancion

  18. J.... R....

    Is this that guy from skycorp

  19. D.... B....

    Delete femmy vocals pls.

    D.... B....

    Singer needs to remove his gyna...

    D.... B....

    You have no idea how hard it is to sing as high as Spencer Sotelo. This is a true performance, and your comment seems a bit macho

  20. J.... D....

    Roblox looking good

  21. G.... o....

    This song always makes me want to play NES!

  22. W.... B....

    Walmarts

  23. G.... B....

    Yeah, The new 7.5 update fixed alot of bugs and definitely updated the graphics a smidge. Not to mention the new gameplay features!
    Can't wait for the next update!

  24. W.... B....

    Sendusoutbetterpurpose

  25. D.... H....

    first timer with this band and 150% sure i don't like this.. i don't say it's crap but i think this is baaaad

  26. b.... ....

    i don't read the comments because they usually ruin the song and decrease my hope in humanity.

  27. S.... D....

    The gamer looks like Pewdiepie.

  28. j.... ....

    This video still confuses me

  29. b.... m....

    I wanna know more of the story lol how its linked too scarlet

  30. S.... G....

    Is this why elon sent the tesla in space?

  31. F.... ....

    why does the guy look like pewdiepie

  32. M.... C....

    Dpop dpunk

  33. J.... W....

    when you have an out of body LSD experience and see yourself like I did last summer.

  34. P.... G....

    I was the kid that threw the trophy down lol

  35. B.... S....

    Is it a coincidence that the guy playing the game looks like pewdiepie?

  36. T.... F....

    This is a masterpiece. You don’t have to enjoy it but anyone who says otherwise is probably not a musically inclined person. I’ve spent years and years writing and I couldn’t come close to this level of complexity. And the video: really makes you think.

  37. R.... 9....

    They need to play this song live again

  38. M.... S....

    nostalgia

  39. G.... T....

    minute 3:52 the riff of Alice in Chains - Them Bones! 7/8!!!

  40. V.... ....

    2:35 Scarlet!

  41. M.... G....

  45. J.... W....

    what is love

  46. J.... W....

    sometimes you just have to step back and ask yourself "why am I angry" because nobody else has the balls to do it for you

  47. J.... W....

    till my sinner fades

  48. D.... G....

    so alpha is the prequel to scarlet, which is a prequel to make total destroy, which also ties into marigold (possibly)?

  49. l.... ....

    I like his voice here ☺

  50. S.... H....

    what is this pop punk junk?

  51. I.... Y....

    "THIS ISN"T REAL METAL" -proceeds to listen to one-volume, one dimensional blast beat/china breakdown/one-riff songs written over and over for 10 years.

    I.... Y....

    Crystal lake is pretty dope.

    I.... Y....

    @Manny Blackstar very dope

  52. C.... B....

    Do not. I repeat. DO NOT make this your ring tone. You will never answer the phone...

  53. D.... B....

    As funny as Periphery wished it was there are underlying themes here. 100/10

  54. n.... F....

    I thought pewdiepie doesn't have legs.

    Anyone else have a sneaking suspicion these guys are lightworkers? |: The message of self-reflection is so strong in these lyrics, and the theme of this video resonates with those that experience spiritual growth once they've reached their breaking point, or had that "tower momement" as people in tarot would say. xD

    *When your tower is built on a weak foundation, it will eventually come crashing down. - Most people will only see what they have lost among the wreckage, but desperately need to realize they were given the opportunity to build upon a stronger foundation. - Now that we have seen the faults of our past that lead us to this moment, we can let go of the hurt and rebuild something more tangible with the enlightenment all of our suffering has brought us. One that will stand the test of time as long as we remember how we got there. Leave the past in the past, realize that your pain was not in vein, forgive yourself and others, but never forget that every battle you have lost made you that much stronger today. It takes hella patience, but keep going. Time waits for no one, so stay up! Shit won't always be sideways as long as you keep moving towards your goal. Inspire others along the way.* ♡

  72. S.... T....

    Pewdiepie associated with Periphery

  76. M.... l....

    Excellent album in my collection, thanks for vid
