You Me At Six - Reckless Lyrics






I've been trying to make sense
I've been shouting under my breath
How's any of this in my interest?
When you sold me out, I must've not got the cheque
Your lust is a lie, but it comes as no surprise
Time after time, it goes right past the line
I do my best to, to make amends with you
But I just can't see the end oh

Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless, and you're defenseless

And isn't it funny how
Those black clouds follow you around?
It's Karma smiling down
Just let me know when it's in town
You act like the world owes you a favour
You want it all but you don't like the taste, oh
You've been throwing bricks at my window
Like there's no better way to say 'Hello'
Hello...

Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless, and you're defenseless

The best you never had [x4]

I'm the devil on your shoulder
I'm the conscious in your mind
I'm the feeling that you, you cannot hide
I'm the devil on your shoulder
Telling you that love is blind
It's OK when, it's hiding in disguise
Your loose lips let, let words slide
You spend too much time talking about my life
Stories you will spin just for a power trip
It's safe to say that I am not into it
In the picture you were not
Someone's in your spot
This is the result of people moving on
Good luck with killing time
You won't be killing mine
I'll do my best
To always be on your mind...
Your mind...

I never once said I didn't mean this
I can't wait to see how this one gets out
You are the first to question my achievements
But that's all right, my dreams I've been living

Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath, I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr Reckless, and you're defenseless

The best, you never had [x4]

    This band reminds me of Vanattica.

    istg if they dont play this at my show i'm gonna jump over to the stage and play it myself

  32. S.... ....

    I heard this pop up in the auto play of songs I was listening to, and I was like "When We Were Young? How'd I get here?" for a second xD

  33. m.... w....

    the way he sings the word "had" in the second "the best you never had" is the hottest thing ever...I'm dying # 2:15

    I LOVE YOU

  35. N.... f....

    great song

  36. w.... e....

    this was honestly my shit when i was fourteen. crazy

    w.... e....

    I was about to say shut up youre like 15. But this came out 5 years ago not 2... wuuuut

    w.... e....

    yeah, but even if they were only a year older, things from a short time ago still give you nostalgia and feel like a longer time ago. People grow up quickly in a short amount of time

    w.... e....

    Emma I think my point went straight over your head xD

    w.... e....

    probably. I'm fucking stupid. explain

    w.... e....

    Emma my point was that the guy is actually 18/19. I thought he was 15 cause in my head this song only seemed to come out last year. But it's near 5 years old

  37. J.... T....

    intro by the killers, when you where young, obviously

    J.... T....

    Oh, no me había dado cuenta... Por favor, no uses el Pac-Man..

    J.... T....

    Deus Ex Doppliz. ahora?

  38. D.... G....

    who cares if they sound like the killers. The killers are fucking sick and so are YMAS

  39. T.... ....

    Find it funny how josh sang the killers at the end of this song live.

  40. K.... ....

    Um, that riff at the beginning. It sounds a bit like something I've heard before * cough cough WhenYouWereYoungbyTheKillers cough *

  41. c.... h....

    kill me

  42. N.... K....

    ive been on a ymas binge this afternoon and it's been amazing. forgot how much i love this band.

  43. D.... G....

    I saw them live 3 times a few years back, i want to go to see them in the UK though 😭

  44. J.... ....

    Absolute rip off of 'When You Were Young' by The Killers

    G.... D....

    DYING xD

  56. A.... R....

    I'm Mr.Reckless with a Capital R 🤘🏻

  57. I.... N....

    Sounds like they stole the killers song and re worded it.

    I.... N....

    +z28 EN Thought that as soon as it started, i was like hold up.this is familiar as shit.

    I.... N....

    Yup Yup

  58. S.... H....

    Josh Franceschi is the most perfect person alive.

    S.... H....

    Shayley Hohn correcT

  59. K.... R....

    i must listen to this at least 4 times a week

  60. a.... a....

    I remember being at this concert 😂

  61. A.... ....

    did anyone else see Danny from asking alexandria

    A.... ....

    mysticblaz e where is he. i couldn't see him 😂😂

  62. R.... N....

    I'm smiling..... :) I love this band.... <3

  63. M.... G....

    sounds like a hybrid of "when you were young"-The killers and "that's what you get"- paramore

  64. V.... L....

    Just noticed the similarity with The Killers - When we were young. still love this song though

  65. R.... 1....

    derp rip

  66. T.... V....

    love this song

  67. T.... ....

    Wow, that The Killers rip-off is plain as day

    T.... ....

    +X3nonEyez Two great songs out of one great riff. And yet you don't seem pleased by it? Pretty common for bands to take inspiration from other bands. Happens all the time.

    T.... ....

    @NzLory
    Inspiration is one thing but blatantly ripping it off someone is called stealing

    T.... ....

    +X3nonEyez there are millions of songs that have been made and you get mad cause you've found two songs that sound similar wow *shakes head*

    T.... ....

    @X3nonEyez intellectual property is a pretty damn flawed system. C'mon man... Using a riff and adapting it to a different song isn't exactly cause to be so butthurt ://

  68. C.... T....

    I remember seeing * you me at six* at a concert one time and it was awesome!

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

    thus video reminds me of the video to lost in the stereo by all time low,but still a great song and video love this band!

    C.... C....

    +Charlotte Carson because the band just did a tour video, its what they do when they have just finished a tour or in the middle of one. most of the times they cant be bothered to make a music video so they compile tour videos

    C.... C....

    This music vid reminds me of ptv hell above music vid XD

  70. p.... d....

    Who said When you were young xD

  71. A.... B....

    I love them more than I love myself

  72. D.... d....

    This song makes me smile every time I hear it and it's one of my favorites, and it showed me that you have to pursue your dreams.
    Mine is become a good drummer and tour the world. I'm not any expert, I'm just a beginner.
    But I love YMAS for making me believe in myself.
    I'll be so thankful if you guys check out my Reckless drum cover or any other!
    Every single little step is one step closer!
    You guys will make me the happiest if you thumb this up so everyone can see it :)

    D.... d....

    @Darío de la Rosa hey man. This comment is quite old but I hope your drumming is going well my guy

    D.... d....

    @Raven Williams Thank you very much! This really means a lot to me.

    D.... d....

    @Darío de la Rosa I'm glad. keep on drumming man 🤘🏼🤘🏼

    D.... d....

    Hey @Darío de la Rosa , I hope your drumming is doing well keep it up!

    D.... d....

    @Samuel Hernandez Thank you man! rn I'm in a band on tour, I'm working as hard as I can so I hopefully will make a video like this one one day! My band is called MayBe so feel free to check it out!
    It really makes me extremely happy to see people still replies to my initial post! I hope you're doing good too!

  73. S.... B....

    Hands down one of my favorites by them

  74. T.... R....

    Intro like We Were Young by The Killers..Did you realise?

    T.... R....

    Tony Rizzo i dont like the killers music so yeah ym@6 better for me lol

    T.... R....

    When they played this live last week at community fest they transitioned into a part of when you were young and loads of the crowd knew it as well it was amazing

    T.... R....

    Tony Rizzo I’m surprised they haven’t faced a lawsuit from the killers with this song yet

    T.... R....

    Yeah changed words but it's when we were Young played in the style of girls not grey at points. I can't believe they haven't been sued yet. Inspiring is one thing but this is a bold face rip off. The styles are exactly the same. They did very little to cover up the theft.

    T.... R....

    @Megan Jones *ahem* there's a difference between inspiration and blatant copying

  75. M.... ....

    My fav video. Happy birthday Josh!

  76. T.... ....

    This is just When you were young - The killers... listen to the intro

  77. L.... R....

    these guys are literally my life

  78. A.... T....

    The killers..... I can't here it?!?

    A.... T....

    You haven't heard "when you were young" have you?

    A.... T....

    Just listen to the first 20 seconds of When You Were Young by The Killers and then ask yourself if you hear it yet.

  79. l.... g....

    I listen to this and all I can think of is when you were young by the killers
     :/

  80. S.... ....

    Daddies

  81. S.... ....

    Incredible live on Saturday at Slam Dunk North

  82. A.... D....

    Sounds very similar, almost exactly, like "When You Were Young" by The Killers...

    A.... D....

    @Amanda Dominguez The vocals remind me more of bands like "Mayday Parade" though.

    A.... D....

    +Amanda Dominguez Intro reminds me of Girls not Grey or We sleep for ever

    A.... D....

    +Amanda Dominguez Maybe a little in the intro, after that not at all.

    A.... D....

    +Sean Gray At least I'm not the only person who heard AFI instead of the Killers haha.

  83. H.... D....

    GO TO WARPED TOUR 2015

  84. C.... D....

    I just love how Josh's hair is always perfect, no matter how crazy and all over the place it is. Also, I'm confused as to how someone so hot on-stage can act like such a dork off-stage.

    C.... D....

    I do not want to sound like a "know-it-all" but bands act crazy most of the time when there is a camera around. I do think they still have fun wether there is a camera or not but they act even crazier when there is a camera around

  85. R.... W....

    Did you mean The Killers, When you were young?

  86. A.... w....

    josh casually representing your demise, nice nice!!

  87. J.... B....

    This sounds like Muse- resistance... Looks like their song writer isn't very creative.

    J.... B....

    @JACKY BENY It sounds nothing like Muse! Wtf are you on about. This is a rip off When you were young by The Killers.

    J.... B....

    @Matt W Yes i agree !!! totaly agreee, it's the same...

  88. T.... ....

    oh yeah intro sounds like killers when you were young nice one

  89. M.... ....

    These guys were great last night with All Time Low :)

    M.... ....

    They were indeed, I think this was my favourite song :)

    M.... ....

    Ikr, Reckless and bite my tongue were my favourite Ymas songs

    M.... ....

    They were incredible!!

    M.... ....

    I was there! It was amazing c: 

  90. M.... ....

    Saw them live last night and this song was so fucking fun to dance to, everybody was wild. It was amazing :D

    M.... ....

    lucky 😦😦😦😥😥😥😂😂😂

    M.... ....

    +veronica morales Haha ikr😅😅 You'll see them soon I'm sure😜🤘🏻

    M.... ....

    @MehMeister how much are those tickets?

  91. G.... ....

    The beginning kinda reminded me of When You Were Young by The Killers.

  92. �.... D....

    i love that adorable ass smile of his at 1:22!!!! ♥_♥

  93. N.... T....

    come to USA please!!!

  94. n.... ....

    Sounds more like Trapt... I like it

  95. w.... n....

    AFI intro much
