Dance Gavin Dance - Variation

We lie cold
Damn up the river we can go slow
We don't wanna know
Dull down our senses
Become numb

We take our time
Ignoring all the signs
Living in fear of our lies
Never bad enough to break it or good enough to feel right
Been in overtime half our lives

Under indecision
We become so dependent
On the rush of the moment
Sanitize my head

Death murders everything in sight
Beneath the rip in the wind, the pillar push you aside
If I, make way, I can taste your sigh
Just like the cannibal amp it knows sound is size
Push me to the brink I said,
Well that bitch is a creep, it tried to know what I think
To breathe out passion, or suck in fate
You think the world was made to wield your weight
And bleed out

Am I the reason that you can't look past your future self
Got me believing you been stuck and glued in frequent doubt
I know the feeling cuz I can't keep my mind open now

Make up your mind
We're running out of time
Doubt is failure by design

I'm burning up
Can only take so much
I know you can feel it it's catching up
It's getting too heavy for both of us

Mirin myself all by myself
Feel the caress so sweet done by my hand
Polishing this frame of mind,
Jacked it up an ax to grind
Duck ‘n dodge, stay unaligned
My recognition face

Some get withered, some get fried
I know we talked about the shit we did each time

[DGDfan]

When Jon screams and Tilian sings the same lyrics simultaneously is ridiculously good

[TheChevre]

This album is ridiculous, I don't think there is even a best song on it. They're all too good.

[holdenhorvath]

After reading the comments on every song in this album, I've found 1 guy that dislikes this, and I've found zero comparisons to jonny or kurt. It's all just been straight love for the album/band. I love it.

[lil_microwave]

Saw Tilian say on a livestream that Tim wrote the breakdown at 2:42 had to come give it a listen. RIP Legend.

[TheCharlieChitty]

If you're still not happy with Tillian after he was easily able to run alongside Mess with the same fierceness he has, then I'm pretty sure you just don't enjoy being happy.

[aforanthony]

I am a person that has outgrown this type of music. Ive moved on to more of an indie genre type of music. But i will always be in love with DGD. They never let me down. I hope this band never cease to exist.

[TheiTzBros]

That grungy intro. The heavier parts with Jon Mess's screams are amazing. 
Go DGD

[TreverEdward]

This whole album is amazing, but this song is definitely a favorite.

That chorus with Tillian and Jon is too good.

[kingspowerlifting]

2:40 to the end has become maybe my favorite thing dgd has done. Mess is nuts. “Done by my

[TreyDZd]

that intro was killer. This my be my favorite song off this album besides We Own The Night

[JiuJitsuTrashcan]

Jon and Tilian really work amazing together and this song they really really cut deep, their simultaneity on the chorus elicits the most emotionally haunting and chilling sensation out of everything they've ever done

[ignorantrelish]

This shit is powerful, i'm gonna say right now this might just be my favorite DGD song of all time.

[benanonnimous]

I think this is the most serious feeling song DGD has ever made. This is really intense.

[cocobarbarian]

Rise records putting out dance Gavin dance new album made me so happy!!!

[ibytepopsicles]

This song is what hooked me on these guys. The part where jon screams and tilians voice is in the background was just perfect to my ears

[jannananaa]

I blasted this last night while the sun was setting with my windows rolled down...it was a beautiful thing. So glad I have this album!

[aidanscovers]

More than a year later still under rated.

[henrystp]

Don't know how anyone can hate on Tilian. Crazy vocals.

[baseballhaha]

This whole album is critically underrated

[JustiNation]

That note he hits is ridiculously high for a man, I love it!
