Woe, Is Me - A Voice Of Hope

Who are you? Who do you think you are?
Your opinion means nothing
Your words are shallow and you'll get what you deserve

Isn't it funny how life works in such mysterious ways, mysteriously

All my life, I've been waiting for this moment to live free and be me
All my life, I have always fallen short but not this time
All my life, I've been waiting for answer, all my life

You couldn't stop me even if you wanted to
It's plain to see, I wanna be
A voice of hope
Not the voice of a dying breed
Finally I'm doing what I wanna do
I've never felt so free in my whole life
There's nothing I would trade for
This is what I was made for

I won't be held back by failure

It's easy to lose yourself completely
To become your own worst enemy
Yeah, yeah

Don't try to tell me how to live my life
Don't try to justify what's wrong and what's right

Lets put it this way
I've been doing this for far too long
To give up everything I've worked for
I've made my deals and cut my losses

For you it's all about the money
For you it's all about the fame
And how you play the game

You couldn't stop me even if you wanted to
It's plain to see, I wanna be
A voice of hope
Not the voice of a dying breed
Finally I'm doing what I wanna do
I've never felt so free in my whole life
There's nothing I would trade for
This is what I was made for

Cause at the end of the day
We're all just trying to make a way
For ourselves

And I'm giving everything that I have left inside of me
Your words are meaningless
Cause I'm above the negativity

So take these words and hold them close
It's not about where you are right now but where you wanna be that matters most

He does, just very reserved as always.

I hope you all know that bands DO change. The old woe is never coming back so get over it. This new ep is so solid and their new album will surely be promising.

[cawrhy]

This is probably my favorite out of the 3 heavy songs on this album.

[DrumThrill]

I'd bet the people who doubt WiM have never seen them live. They have some of the best showmanship i've seen.

[hahaXPlol]

I've been listening to Woe, is Me since Number[s] and honestly haven't had any problems with their new stuff. I could definitely say the new stuff is better than the old but then again that's my own opinion. I'm not sure why people need to bitch and complain about it.. Same thing with We Came As Romans, they've changed sound, maybe not lineup but the sound is a bit different and I still love them. People need to grow up and realize how hard these bands work to put out music for us.

[choopsdawhoops]

Holy fuck. How can ANYONE not like this? This is heavy as fuck and easily the best song for Hance on the album. Intro goes fuckin' hard.

[brycebutler]

i Agree with you. after tyler left (who i personally hated) they had little chance given to them to regroup and restructure. this band became much more matured without tyler's immature bs. and now they are legit fucking tearing it up and just because there sound switched doesnt mean that true fans should just turn their back WIM never turned there back on us. remember that

[WoeIsJesse]

wow I just saw that, things happen in this band so much so fast

[xMatado]

I don't care what anyone says I don't think any band can make a better album than Number[s], I like the direction they're moving they're doing what they can with who they have.

[MrJakeburkitt]

I love how it has an ADTR feeling on some parts of the song.

[iloveyoudaboki]

This album man .. couldnt be better :)

[DGKrew]

They only had one album with a different sound. That doesn't make any sense. This is Woe, Is Me now, this new lineup has been around longer than the original lineup. So technically this is more Woe, Is Me than ever before.

[mandalorian]

Haha Josh goes crazy on that 8 string.

[TheBitTV]

How can you guys hate this song? Seriously? This song is badass and really heavy. I think they've improved from Genesis.

[DGKrew]

They already have a following with the name Woe, Is Me. Regardless of what you think, it would be extremely idiotic to change their name now. They should've changed it when Tyler left, but they didn't so this is Woe, Is Me now. The people, instrumentation, lyrics, and meaning doesn't really mean shit, lots of bands should have changed their name but they didn't.

[DGKrew]

Sorry, was just trying to understand why people agree with them changing their name. I understand and completely respect your opinion.

[athanatosjohn]

In a way that's true, for me, if I can't respect the band members then I have no right to respect or listen to their music. It's not that their music is that bad, I just can't listen to a band I don't respect.

[battlebeard]

Yet Austin directed the music they made. If you like number[s] Genesi[s] or any of the covers then be thankful for him. Not saying he isn't a control freak, but he isn't the ass everyone makes him out to be.

[Sceneboy]

Fuck yes yo! Woe is me is Brilliant! Woe is me: Blowing minds since 2010 \m/

[petertummolo]

this song is awesome, dk why there's so much hate
