Taking Up Arms Lyrics

Chemical Warfare

Lyrics by Joe Hutchinson and Adam Minton

Song title by Kevin Triplett

Music by Taking Up Arms

 

You’re running out of time

Fighting to stay alive

You’ve never felt this way before

You pretend that you don’t care

There’s a silence in the air

You’ve never felt this way…

 

You feel so far away (it’s killing me)

It’s killing me

But I find my faith in you

I find my cure in you

 

Now you’re running for your life

Fighting for more time

You’ve never felt so insecure

So take one last breath

Before your final rest

You’ve never felt so…

 

You feel so far away (it’s killing me)

It’s killing me

But I find my faith in you

I find my cure in you

 

It’s killing me…

 

You feel so far away (it’s killing me)

It’s killing me

But I find my faith in you

I find my cure in you

 

You feel so far away (it’s killing me)

It’s killing me

But I find my faith in you

I find my cure in you

 

It’s killing me

 

 

New

Lyrics by Adam Minton and Joe Hutchinson

Music by Taking Up Arms

 

I find myself running away from you, away from you

I find myself hiding away from you, away from you

 

You pull me back, closer than I have ever been before

And I feel new because of you

You pull me back, closer than I have ever been before

And I feel new because of you, because of you

 

I find myself slipping away from you, away from you

I find myself drifting away from you, away from you

 

You pull me back, closer than I have ever been before

And I feel new because of you

You pull me back, closer than I have ever been before

And I feel new because of you, because of you

 

I feel new

 

You pull me back, closer than I have ever been before

And I feel new because of you (because of you)

You pull me back, closer than I have ever been before

And I feel new because of you, because of you

 

 

Knowing This Is It

Lyrics by Joe Hutchinson

Music by Taking Up Arms

 

So many days spent wondering what is true

But through it all I wear a smile and I know it’s you

Even when it seems that I am on my own

I know that I won’t be alone

 

You are here, I will not forget

And I am happy knowing this is it

 

So many things I can’t seem to figure out

But through it all I wear a smile and I’ll sing out loud

Even when it seems that I am on my own

I know that I won’t be alone

 

You are here, I will not forget

And I am happy knowing this is it

 

You are here, I will not forget

And I am happy knowing this is it

 

 

Break Away

Lyrics by Adam Minton and Joe Hutchinson

Music by Taking Up Arms

 

You close your eyes again

Not realizing what was said

You try to put up a fight

But you still can’t sleep at night

 

Break away, open your eyes and see the truth tonight

Break away, from everything you’ve come to lean on

Break away, open your eyes and see the truth tonight

Break away, from everything you’ve come to lean on

 

Emptiness consumes you

You wonder what to do

Your fears, they pull you down

But they can’t keep you bound

 

Break away, open your eyes and see the truth tonight

Break away, from everything you’ve come to lean on

Break away, open your eyes and see the truth tonight

Break away, from everything you’ve come to lean on

 

Is it me? You still can’t tell

That’s exactly where you fell

Is there something more that I don’t know

Can you tell me why

You have given up on life?

Because there is so much more

Break away

 

Break away, open your eyes and see the truth tonight

Break away, from everything you’ve come to lean on

Break away, open your eyes and see the truth tonight

Break away, from everything you’ve come to lean on

 

 

Missing You (the Joe song)

Words and music by Joe Hutchinson

 

Hello again, it’s been so long

We both pretend we’re too far gone

From everything and any chance to make things right

But no matter where I go, I can’t get you off my mind\

 

You said goodbye, to say the least

But without you there’s nothing here to see

What am I missing? Where did I go wrong?
Then I realized it was you I’d been missing all along

 

So say goodnight to me one last time

We’ll learn to live and forget

Do you remember who we used to be?

Don’t forget about me

 

You said goodbye, to say the least

But without you there’s nothing here to see

What am I missing? Where did I go wrong?
Then I realized it was you I’d been missing all along

 

You said goodbye, to say the least

But without you there’s nothing here to see

What am I missing? Where did I go wrong?
Then I realized it was you I’d been missing all along, all along

 

 

Crimson Tears

Lyrics by Adam Minton and Joe Hutchinson

Music by Taking Up Arms

 

Tears fill my eyes

Torn apart by all these lies

I know that we can’t be wrong

I hope that you won’t be long

 

If only you were here

We would just disappear

Leave behind all of our fears

And wipe away our crimson tears

 

Everyone cuts me down

Forces on a fake, bitter frown

I know that we can’t be wrong

I hope that you won’t be long

 

If only you were here

We would just disappear

Leave behind all of our fears

And wipe away our crimson tears

 

I’m screaming, screaming, screaming for help

 

If only you were here (you were here)

We would just disappear (disappear)

Leave behind all of our fears (all our fears)

And wipe away our crimson tears (crimson tears)

 

 

Now You Can Finally Breathe

Lyrics by Joe Hutchinson and Adam Minton

Music by Taking Up Arms

 

What’s your opinion of the situation?

Do you think that it’s as bad as it really is?

The deceit, the pain, the lies, do you flinch?

Rethink it, rework it, you decide

 

And when it all collides

We will be side

And now you can finally breathe

 

Give me a reason for your complications

Your excuses will only last so long

You ride and hide but you can’t make up your mind

The choice is now yours, you decide

 

And when it all collides

We will be side

And now you can finally breathe with me

 

This is so wrong

This is so wrong

This is so wrong, terribly wrong

This is so wrong, terribly wrong

 

And when it all collides

We will be side

And now you can finally breathe with me

 

Now you can breathe with me
