Songs Of Breaking Benjamin

Rain♥

2011-04-21T07:51:00.001-07:00

Take a photograph,
It'll be the last,
Not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here,

I don't have a past
I just have a chance,
Not a family or honest plea remains to say,

Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.

Is it you I want,
Or just the notion of
A heart to wrap around
so I can find my way around

Safe to say from here,
You're getting closer now,
We are never sad cause we are not allowed to be

Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.

Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.

To lie here under you,
is all that I could ever do,
To lie here under you is all,
To lie here under you is all that I could ever do,
To lie here under you is all,

Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun.

Rain rain go away,
Come again another day,
All the world is waiting for the sun,
All the world is waiting for the sun,
All the world is waiting for the sun.

Breath♥

2011-04-15T07:59:00.000-07:00

I see nothing in your eyes,
And the more I see the less I like
Is it over yet?
In my head?

I know nothing of your kind,
And I won't reveal your evil mind
Is it over yet?
I can't win

So sacrifice yourself
And let me have what's left
I know that I can find
A fire in your eyes
I'm going all the way
Get away, please

You take the breath right out of me
You left a hole where my heart should be
You've gotta fight just to make it through
Cause I will be the death of you

This will be all over soon,
(This will be all over soon),
Pour the salt into the open wound
Is it over yet?
Let me in

So sacrifice yourself
And let me have what's left
I know that I can find
A fire in your eyes
I'm going all the way
Get away, please

You take the breath right out of me
You left a hole where my heart should be
You've gotta fight just to make it through
Cause I will be the death of you

(tick tick tick)

I'm waiting
I'm praying
Realize
Start hating

You take the breath right out of me
You left a hole where my heart should be
You've gotta fight just to make it through
Cause I will be the death of you

This song is amazing! I love the beat the lyrics everything! The Message it gives is just wow! It's telling people that feel like they are everything and are the Head Hancho to get get off their high horse and stop being so self-ish! So freaking true!

Awake & Alive♥- Skillet

2011-03-28T07:27:00.000-07:00

Okay so today i'm going to do something a little different. Instead of blogging about a breaking benjamin song, I'm going to do a Song by Skillet. It's called Awake and Alive

I'm at war with the world
And they try to pull me into the dark
I struggle to find my faith
As I'm slipping from your arms

It's getting harder to stay awake
And my strength is fading fast
You breathe into me at last

I'm awake, I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside
Now it's my time
I'll do what I want 'cause this is my life

(Here, right now)
Right here, right now
Stand my ground and never back down
I know what I believe inside
I'm awake, and I'm alive

I'm at war with the world
'Cause I ain't never gonna sell my soul
I've already made up my mind
No matter what, I can't be bought or sold

When my faith is getting weak
And I feel like giving in
You breathe into me again

I'm awake, I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside
[| From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/s/skillet-lyrics/awake-and-alive-lyrics.html |]
Now it's my time
I'll do what I want 'cause this is my life

(Here, right now)
Right here, right now
Stand my ground and never back down
I know what I believe inside
I'm awake, and I'm alive

Waking up, waking up
Waking up, waking up
Waking up, waking up
Waking up, waking up in the dark

I can feel you in my sleep
In your arms, I feel you breathe into me
Forever hold this heart that I will give to you
Forever I will live for you

I'm awake, I'm alive
Now I know what I believe inside
Now it's my time
I'll do what I want 'cause this is my life

(Here, right now)
Right here, right now
Stand my ground and never back down
I know what I believe inside
I'm awake, and I'm alive

Waking up, waking up
Waking up, waking up
Waking up, waking up
Waking up, waking up

       At times we may not know why things happen to us, or why we do the things we do. We just have to know that god is with us through everystep of the way and he has a plan for us. We have to trust in god. Trust that he guideing us in the path he wants us on.
       Life is crazy. Things happen that we can't explain, we cry and get sad depending on the situation. The situation doesn't always have to be sad, it can be very good, like you get a job after 5 years of being unemployed, of after years of trying to start a family you suddenly get pregnant. These are all events that need to happen as good, bad, or indifferent as the situation may seem. We all have to experience emotional times in every emotion, Sad, Happy, Exstatic, depression no matter what the emotion is.
       This song is saying, even when we get down and sad or even happier than we've ever been, we can't lose faith. God loves us unconditonaly and forgives us no matter what we do. Their is always someone who loves us no matter what. God.♥

Here We Are♥

2011-03-25T06:54:00.000-07:00

Sing it for me
I can't erase the stupid things I say
You're better than me
I struggle just to find a better way

So here we are
Fighting and trying to hide the scars
I'll be home tonight, take a breath and softly say goodbye
The lonely road, the one that I should try to walk alone
I'll be home tonight take a breath and softly say goodbye

You wouldn't like me
Keep moving on until forever ends
Don't try to fight me
The beauty queen has lost her crown again

So here we are
Fighting and trying to hide the scars
I'll be home tonight, take a breath and softly say goodbye
The lonely road, the one that I, should try to walk alone
I'll be home tonight take a breath and softly say goodbye

Goodbye
So why are you so eager to betray?
Pick the pieces up
Pick the pieces up
so why are you the one that walks away?
Pick the pieces up
Pick the pieces up
Pick the pieces up

So here we are
Fighting and trying to hide the scars
I'll be home tonight, take a breath and softly say goodbye
The lonely road, the one that I, should try to walk alone
I'll be home tonight take a breath and softly say goodbye
Just take a breath and softly say goodbye

We all get into arguments. We all regret at least one thing we say during that argument. We need to grow from our mistakes, and depending on the situation we need to forgive and forget. This song sounds like it's about a guy who got into a fight with his girlfriend or wife and said something really mean to her and feels really bad and wants her to forgive him. " I'll be home tonight, so take a breath and softly say good-bye", sounds like he saying I'll be home tonight so we can talk things over, but he know she doesnt want to speak to him so hes saying, I love you and if you can't forgive me then I guess we have to end it. He's saying he messed up and he knows it and wants to make things better but he's willing to let her go if she can't forgive him.♥

Diary Of Jane♥

2011-03-18T07:08:00.000-07:00

If I had to
I would put myself right beside you
So let me ask
Would you like that?
Would you like that?

And I don't mind
If you say this love is the last time
So now I'll ask
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

No!

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Try to find out what makes you tick
As I lie down
Sore and sick
Do you like that?
Do you like that?

theres a fine line between love and hate
and i dont mind
Just let me say that I like that
I like that

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place in the diary of Jane
So tell me how it should be

Desperate, I will crawl
Waiting for so long
No love, there is no love
Die for anyone
What have I become

Something's getting in the way
Something's just about to break
I will try to find my place in the diary of Jane
As I burn another page
As I look the other way
I still try to find my place
In the diary of Jane

       Diary Of Jane is probably one of the bands more popular songs. My Interpretation of this song is that this girl Jane is the love of this guys life, and he tells her he loves her but she doesnt feel the same and wants to break up. "I will try to find my place in the Diary of Jane" Is probably referring to Janes life and he want to know how he fits into her life. " As I Burn another page, As I look the other way", He's saying he wants to get rid of the memories they had together and he doesnt feel bad about it. ♥
        For anyone whos ever been in a relationship, and not just a relationship one that ended bad, this song im sure speaks how you feel. I think Breaking Benjamin is known for having songs that speak our minds. Music In General does but it takes a certain melody and lyrics to really get a persons feelings right.♥

Give me a Sign♥

2011-03-16T08:07:00.000-07:00

Dead star shine, light up the sky
I'm all out of breath, my walls are closing in
Days go by, give me a sign
Come back to the end, the shepherd of the damned

I can feel you falling away
No longer the lost, no longer the same
And I can see you starting to break
I'll keep you alive if you show me the way
Forever and ever the scars will remain
I'm falling apart, leave me here forever in the dark

Daylight dies, blackout the sky
Does anyone care? Is anybody there?
Take this life, empty inside
I'm already dead, I'll rise to fall again

I can feel you falling away
No longer the lost, no longer the same
And I can see you starting to break
I'll keep you alive if you show me the way
Forever and ever the scars will remain
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/breaking-benjamin-lyrics/give-me-a-sign-lyrics.html }
I'm falling apart, leave me here forever in the dark

God, help me, I've come undone
Out of the light of the sun
God, help me, I've come undone
Out of the light of the sun

I can feel you falling away
No longer the lost, no longer the same
And I can see you starting to break
I'll keep you alive if you show me the way
Forever and ever the scars will remain

Give me a sign
There's something buried in the words
Give me a sign
Your tears are adding to the flood

Just give me a sign
There's something buried in the words
Give me a sign
Your tears are adding to the flood

Just give me a sign
There's something buried in the words
Give me a sign
Your tears are adding to the flood

Forever and ever the scars will remain

To me It sounds like a guy who just got his heart broken and is asking for the reason why.It's so hard for me to write what it is exactly I like about Breaking Benjamins songs because they are all so amazing. The lyrics are always saying something that someone, somewhere can relate to. This song is my ALL TIME favorites of theirs. The melody, the beat, the words, everything about it is just .. I don't even have words for it. ♥

We all go through heartbreak. Let's face it, it's deffinetly not uncommon in todays world. I just think that because we have so much thats handed to us, and how today's business aren't based on how much work you've done, but who you know, that we can't get over ourselves. Some people always feel like they don't have to work for anything because it will be given to us, so inturn it's reflected onto their relationships. They feel like, Oh well I don't care I can do whatever I want. No! you really can't. You have to be with the person you love and respect them. Feeling like you can do whatever you want probably means you're cheating or thinking of cheating on you significant other, and that's not cool. Get over yourself, please! You're deffinetly not helping youself or your realtionship out what-so-ever. But thats just my opinion.

Until The End♥

2011-03-11T07:35:00.000-08:00

So clever, whatever, I'm done with these endeavors
Alone I'll walk the winding way (here I stay)
It's over, no longer, I feel it growing stronger
I live to die another day, until I fade away

Why give up? Why give in?
It's not enough, it never is
So I will go on until the end
We've become, desolate
It's not enough, it never is
But I will go on until the end

Surround me, it's easy, to fall apart completely
I feel you creeping up again (In my Head)
It's over, no longer, I feel it growing colder
I knew this day would come to end, so let this life begin

Why give up? Why give in?
It's not enough, it never is
So I will go on until the end
We've become, desolate
It's not enough, it never is
But I will go on until the end

I've lost my way
I've lost my way
But I will go on until the end

Living is, hard enough, without you fucking UP.........

Why give up? Why give in?
It's not enough, it never is
So I will go on until the end
We've become, desolate
It's not enough, it never is
But I will go on until the end

I've lost the way
I've lost the way
But I will go on until the end

The final fight I win
The final fight I win
The final fight I win

But I will go on until the end

This Song Is 100 Percent Inspirational. I love the message it has. Telling People No matter what goes on in life that nothing, NOTHING! is worth taking your life, and to pull through the hard times and to go(die) when its your time to go, When god wants you to go.

People say , "Well you don't know what my life is like!" "My life sucks!" Blah Blah Blah. You know what I say to them. Your life does suck, with that attitude it sure does. Even though I'm still young my life is hard to. But you know what gets me through my stuggles? My Family. My family and I are very close. Communication is very important in my family, and we help each other through every Stuggle in our lives. This Song is like the Soundtrack to my life. It Tells my story. There has been many times where I felt it would just be easier to give up and say I can't do this. But I pulled through and now I'm about to graduate High School. If it weren't for my family and close friends I highly Doubt I would be here today. This song is so inspiring. People If you know someone who is sad and down, Talk to them! You may make there day.

I Will Not Bow♥

2011-03-04T07:33:00.000-08:00

I will Not bow-Breaking Benjamin

Fall

Now the dark begins to rise
Save your breath, its far from over
Leave the lost and dead behind
Now's your chance to run for cover
I don't want to change the world,
I just want to leave it colder
Light the fuse and burn it up
Take the path that leads to nowhere

All is lost again, but I'm not giving in

I will not bow, I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall, I will not fade
I will take your breath away

Fall

Watch the end through dying eyes
Now the dark is taking over
Show me where forever dies
Take the fall and run to heaven

All is lost again, but I'm not giving in

I will not bow, I will not break
I will shove the world away
I will not fall, I will not fade
I will take your breath away

And I'll survive, paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud, cold blooded fake
I will shove the world away

I will not bow, I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall, I will not fade
I will take your breath away

And I'll survive, paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud, cold blooded fate
I will shut the world away

Fall

This Song Is one of my favorites by Breaking Benjamin. It's saying that even though struggles in life may be tough, you have to be stong, don't give in to the pressures. There are some things we do that we may not be proud of or want anyone else to know about us, but we have to believe in ourselves and know that what we do it the right choice for us. Also not to make the wrong decision on purpose. We have to believe in ourselves and know that we can do anything if we set our minds to it.♥

Some people may not like this song by Breaking Benjamin because it's kinda screamo, but it's not all that screamo. I know that the more and more I listen to them I don't even hear the screaming because there lyrics are just so amazing and speak right to the heart. I bet that anybody who listens to the songs can relate to whats being said at least once in there life because we all have struggles ♥
