State Champs - Around The World And Back Lyrics






Been around the world and back this year
Told myself I wanna face this fear
But I don't think I can stand on my own
She's got eyes like spring, legs like the summer
Everybody says she looks just like her mother
But I think she wants that left alone

There's too many ways to say goodbye
But it's quite the opposite this time

Sometimes I can't help but say
I'm falling in love and it's scaring me
It came to me in a dream
Now all that's left is our empathy
But this is just the life I ordered
One step back and two steps forward
Sometimes I can't help but say
We're making history

Been around the world and back this year
I never wanted to be so sincere
I'm not a hero or a saint
But don't push me away
When you believed in me it brought us together
Everybody says that it won't last forever
Close your eyes, don't cut the ties, it makes sense

There's too many ways to say goodbye
But it's quite the opposite this time

Sometimes I can't help but say
I'm falling in love and it's scaring me
It came to me in a dream
Now all that's left is our empathy
But this is just the life I ordered
One step back and two steps forward
Sometimes I can't help but say
We're making history
Our history

You pulled me in like a tidal wave
And let ourselves just float away
With no direction, or a way to rewind
Yeah, you pulled me in like a tidal wave
Thought that it was my mistake
And we'd fall apart before I say goodbye
But it's quite the opposite this time

Sometimes I can't help but say
I'm falling in love and it's scaring me
It came to me in a dream
Now all that's left is our empathy
But this is just the life I ordered
One step back and two steps forward
Sometimes I can't help but say
We're making history
Our history

    S.... W....

    No it's not.

  5. r.... k....

    Saw state champs twice and met them once Derick is a saint such a sweetheart and he used to live 30 mins from my hometown. I love this song but it reminds me of my ex which was my first love makes me sad everytime I hear this piece but its beautiful this song ugh it's just a reminder of my first love 😍😍😍

    this song is way better live and more amazing with Chrissy in it. Still great though :)

    That's Ansley Newman? I thought it's Chrissy Costanza from Against the Current.

    F.... H....

    Chrissy is only in the live version, sadly...

  20. J.... ....

    in their headlining tour this year, Chrissy from Against the Current sang this with Derek and it was so amazing and perfect and I just wanna listen to it forever

    This band is very underrated I can tell by the end of this year they will be the biggest band they are all amazing Derek Tyler Ryan Evan and tony #sc4life

  23. A.... K....

    This is just the most beautiful song

  24. E.... T....

    concept: this but with kellin quinn

  25. E.... T....

    Don't listen to the RobertIDK cover of this. You'll only be able to remember his nasally, grating whine when you think of this song, instead of Derek DiScanio's acceptably punk voice.

  26. A.... S....

    Indonesia mana suara nya

    This is a perfect Percy and annabeth song and a destiel songs

    I'm here because of Ansley

  33. T.... ....

    Tyler Carter + Derek please do a song together SHIP

  34. s.... j....

    He kind of sounds like Alex Gaskarth in this.

  35. E.... L....

    Chrissy should've sang this

  36. M.... M....

    Hello. Robertidk covered this song amazingly! You should check him out!

    N.... M....

    Nina Mata same dude

  38. A.... I....

    When I first heard this I didn't see the artist and I thought I'd was Alex Gaskarth from All Time Low and Kellin Quinn from Sleeping with sirens 😂😂

  39. A.... F....

    Thought it was Alex Gaskarth of ATL and Chrissy Costanza of ATC. lol

    A.... F....

    Arvin Faustino they should do a cover :D

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

    oh my god... 😍

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

    my best friend told me to listen to this song
    i think im in love with it.

    D.... S....

    Danique Smit whit your best friend? Or With the song?

    D.... S....

    Luis Fer Barba the song lol

  42. H.... ....

    I thought it was Chrissy Costanza singing with Derek, damn Ansley and Chrissy sound so similar

    H.... ....

    I see what you're saying. They are simmilar

    H.... ....

    I knew I wasn't the only one!

    H.... ....

    루시 Lucy and now they sang It together...

  43. H.... V....

    That moment when you finally get into a band after a band member recommends it to you. I seriously should have listened to them earlier!

  44. S.... ....

    I love this song so much,it reminds me a lot of my non-existent precedent love story.

    S.... ....

    Sara OMG same!

  45. A.... B....

    Can anyone please tell me the real meaning of the song? I can't solve the questions in my head. Haha. I''m curious...

    A.... B....

    Abigail Bernardino hella late response but, I interpret it as two people who found each other and are hesitantly in love, who are ready to face their fears of lonliness together.

  46. K.... V....

    They deserve more fame than this!!... They are like gems that people refuse to see even if they are in front of there eyes...

    F.... T....

    Ary Sutrisno yep

  53. C.... S....

    They need a music video for this!

  54. M.... J....

    Another Whitechapel Ripoff band. Fucking fake. Reported, GG, get shrekt skrub.

    M.... J....

    Dude. Whitechapel and State Champs sound nothing alike. Whitechapel is hard rock and this is pop punk. They sound nothing like each other. There is a huge difference between the two so honestly if you don't like something don't voluntarily click the link to the video. Don't get me wrong, Whitechapel is fucking amazing, but State Champs is also fucking amazing. They're both fucking amazing, in their own special ways. Don't hate, please.

    M.... J....

    haha I clearly wasnt being serious

  55. a.... ....

    Can't wait to see them tonight in Sacramento!

  56. J.... ....

    I did a cover on this song, go check it out!

  57. T.... H....

    Well this is beautiful

  58. m.... ....

    He fucked up on the chorus for this song.

    m.... ....

    Are you dumb?

    m.... ....

    +Wrthy I have been playing music my entire life practically, and in my opinion, I don't agree with the chord changes and melody he chose for the chorus. Too "pop" oriented if you will, and I felt it didn't really connect fluidly with the verses.
    Also, I'm currently making progress to achieving my masters in biology. But yeah man, I'm extremely dumb. Go listen to Neck Deep buddy.

    m.... ....

    good fucking job man, proud of u xoxoxo

  59. T.... D....

    I remember when we opened up for state champs in Indiana years ago

  60. M.... H....

    ty Shady

  61. J.... J....

    Enjoy, more music for the idiots.

  62. j.... l....

    So fucking awesome. Thank you State Champs for, yet another, amazing album

  63. N.... E....

    This song is making my last finals week at college so much better. I love these guys!!!!

  64. S.... ....

    Some songs you can just truly relate to. For me that song is this song.

  65. E.... M....

    my boyfriend introduced me to this band and I love it more than him. lol

  66. D.... c....

    Anyone give me a hand with the strumming patterns?

    D.... c....

    for the chorus part, ive got the rest down, i might have the chorus down too but i want a general idea to see if im on the right path haha

    D.... c....

    +Dawn McCormack I didn't actually tried playing yet but I tried to figure it out. My ears seem to say "You can do it". :D It's not that complicated as I thought.

    D.... c....

    Ah I think I've got it down anyway, I just wanted a second opinion is all. Thanks mate :)

    D.... c....

    +Dawn McCormack 1 2 3 and 4 and 1 2 3 and 4 and.. ect.

    D.... c....

    thanks, thats what ive been doing :)

  67. E.... F....

    Please can there be a music video for this.... *-*

  68. R.... E....

    am i the only one who thinks the female vocalist sounds kinda like a mix between kellin quinn and hayley williams?

  69. C.... C....

    i met all of state champs last night and they were all so chill and put on an incredible show:) i would recommend going to one if you haven't already!! #Aroundtheworldandback

  70. M.... D....

    at first I thought it was CHRISSY COSTANZA of AGAINST THE CURRENT

  71. s.... ....

    I was gonna leave a witty comment about how incredible Derek's voice is, but Charlie killed any chance of that, my goodness.

    Derek's voice could bring it back to life, though. <3

    s.... ....

    @Zac19811 Yeah! He's played State Champs and Abandoning Sunday on his streams before, among other things :D

    s.... ....

    +shadypenguinn A wild Shady appeared :D

    s.... ....

    +shadypenguinn Have I ever thanked you for exposing me to this awesome band? And don't get me started on this song! Thank you so much for tweeting this out! <3

  80. R.... C....

    "I'm falling in love and it's scaring me..." wow, deep, poetic, original, genius. Or something a 10 yo girls would write in her diary.

    R.... C....

    😂😂

    R.... C....

    Keep your negativity away from here please.

    R.... C....

    REM is trash

    R.... C....

    You've clearly never fallen in love. It's SCARY.

  81. n.... h....

    This whole album is God like

  82. V.... H....

    I think this is going to be my wedding song

  83. E.... L....

    I cannot stop listening to this track, this album is easily going to be the greatest pop punk album of 2015.

  84. G.... P....

    70000 views were just me :)

  85. t.... ....

    They should release a full band version of this too. That would be sick.

  86. V.... H....

    Kinda really fits the situation I'm in at the moment... I think I might just learn the chords to this and sing it to her :)

  92. j.... ....

    State champs used to be so good what the hell is this shit they're putting out sounds a lot more like pop than punk

    j.... ....

  95. T.... ....

    Derek, please share the link to the website for ordering lives! Lots of people I know are interested. Love the song!

  96. T.... ....

    So why isn't this nor their last two songs on Spotify yet? I need them in my playlist ASAP

    T.... ....

    Exactly, they probably won't put them on Spotify until the album release though, blessthefall did this too, I was waiting for dead air to be put on spotify but they didn't until the album came out
