POP EVIL LYRICS
album: "Up" (2015)
Footsteps
I've been counting all my steps
All my no's just turned to yes
Silently I must confess
My troubled history
That's washed away all my sins
Starting over once again
This is where it all begins
It's right in front of me
Down is not where I belong
This aching heart won't turn to stone
There's a fire inside these bones
It was meant to be
I see your world's still full of light
How could I ever been so blind
I still haven't lost my fight
That haunts me in my sleep
I feel like waking up
I've had this dream before
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
I've walked an empty mile
Wore down this lonely soul
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
(Woohoooo woohoooo woohoooo...)
Higher, go higher
(Woohoooo woohoooo woohoooo...)
Higher, higher
I know only time would tell
If all the cards will treat me well
Cause this hand that I been dealt
Keeps me wondering
So now here I turn the page
I've learned to silence all my rage
Tell me who can really say
What will tomorrow bring
I feel like waking up
I've had this dream before
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
I've walked an empty mile
Wore down this lonely soul
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, go higher
(Woohoooo woohoooo woohoooo...)
Higher, go higher
(Woohoooo woohoooo woohoooo...)
Higher, higher
I'll find you
So far away
I'll find you
After all
I'll find you
So far away
I'll find you
After all
(I'll find you) I feel like waking up
(So far away) I've had this dream before
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
(I'll find you) I've walked an empty mile (I'll find you)
(So far away) Wore down this lonely soul (So far away)
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
(I'll find you) I feel like waking up
(So far away) I've had this dream before
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
(I'll find you) I've walked an empty mile (I'll find you)
(So far away) Wore down this lonely soul (So far away)
(I'll find you) I'll take these footsteps
(After all) Go higher, go higher
I feel like waking up
I've had this dream before
I'll take these footsteps
Go higher, higher

Core
No fuel, no desire, so lost I could walk through fire
See red left for dead unrest I've been misled
No chains or restraints imprint you left behind you
Slow burn it's your turn this agony I wanna let you know
Hey look what you've done to me
Leave your mark or leave here running
Hey look what you've done to me
Leave your mark or leave here running
You're done to me
My pistol your plastic foolish thinking we're so tragic
These whispers forbidden unrest still mislead
No logic, no reason you pretend there still some magic
Slow burn it's your turn this agony I wanna let you know
Hey look what you've done to me
Leave your mark or leave here running
Hey look what you've done to me
Leave your mark or leave here running
You're done to me
You can't hold me down
You can't hold me
You can't hold me down
Just look at me now
You can't hold me down
You don't know me
You can't hold me down
Just look at me now
Just look at me now
No fuel, no desire, so lost I could walk through fire
Slow burn it's your turn this agony I wanna let you know
Hey look what you've done to me
Leave your mark or leave here running
Hey look what you've done to me
Leave your mark or leave here running
You're done to me

In Disarray
Glass half empty
Fingers numb and cold
Nothing's easy when you've lost control
Each day a broken promise
Tightrope a crooked line
True love but lets be honest
Can't trust a poisoned mind
[Chorus:]
Throw it away, throw it away, your world's in disarray
Carried away, carried away, what a mess you've made
The medicine you crave is overrated
Throw it away, throw it away
Thoughts gone sour in my bitter head
Dancing dreams while I've been left for dead
Each night an endless stumble
Crawl through the rabbit hole
Reach out bu no one's with me
Burned every bridge I know
[Chorus:]
Throw it away, throw it away, your world's in disarray
Carried away, carried away, what a mess you've made
The medicine you crave is overrated
Throw it away, throw it away
The medicine you crave is overrated
[Chorus:]
Throw it away, throw it away, your world's in disarray
Carried away, carried away, what a mess you've made
The medicine you crave is overrated
Throw it away, throw it away

Ghost Of Muskegon
Days feeling hollow
Against my will they run into each other
And lies that I followed
Invisible now but the ground tells the story
This land that I ramble
Keeps going on and on, on and on
If I could
Live forever
I’d breathe it on and on, on and on
I’m just a ghost
It's starting to show
I’ve been on the wrong side searching for love
Could I be wrong about everything?
I've made more waves than the ocean
But nobody knows
Nobody knows
Lost, still I’m searching
Seek for the truth that will keep me together
I drift, through the ether
Never gone, gone
Never gone, gone
If I could
Live forever
I'd breathe on and on, on and on
I’m just a ghost
It's starting to show
I’ve been on the wrong side searching for love
Could I be wrong about everything?
I've made more waves than the ocean
But nobody knows
Nobody knows
You pick me up, bring me back down
Just let me breath, before I drown
I’m in too deep over my head
Am I alive or am I dead
I’m just a ghost
Nobody knows
I made more waves than the ocean
I’m just a ghost
It's starting to show
I’ve been on the wrong side searching for love
Could I be wrong about everything?
I've made more waves than the ocean
But nobody knows
Nobody knows
I've made more waves than the ocean
But nobody knows
Nobody knows
I've made more waves than the ocean
But nobody knows
Nobody knows

If Only For Now
Streets crowded with voices
Thousand of faces,
but you're what I want to see
Lights, reflections of yesterday
Days that have flown away,
You're all I wanna keep
So if you lay here with me now
I promise the stars they won't make a sound
If you stay, just for a while
Cause we know the world won't ever slow down
If only for now, right now
If only for now
Here, the world's at our fingers
So live in the moment
I'm not gonna say goodbye
So if you lay here with me now
I promise the stars they won't make a sound
If you stay, just for a while
Cause we know the world won't ever slow down
If only for now, right now
If only for now
So why don't we for now forget tomorrow, tomorrow
Let me be the only thing you need, if only for now
So if you lay here with me now
I promise the stars they won't make a sound
So if you lay here with me now
I promise the stars they won't make a sound
If you stay, just for a while
Cause we know the world won't ever slow down
If only for now, right now
If only for now
If only for now, right now
If only for now

Ways To Get High
I want to pick you up
Free your mind
Take you somewhere
I want to turn you loose
Watch you bloom
Meet you out there
Hey
You're looking my way
Just come on and play
Just come on and
C-c-c-come on and
So many ways to get high
To keep on losing our mind
To keep us feeling alright
So many ways to get
I want to climb the wall
Watch you fall
Get back up now
I want watch you sink
Chase you to the brink
Meet you out there
Hey
You're looking my way
Just come on and play
Just come on and
C-c-c-come on and
So many ways to get high
To keep on losing our mind
To keep us feeling alright
So many ways to get
Hey [x4]
Hey if you're looking my way
Won't you come on and play
Come and play with me now
Hey if you're looking my way
Won't you come on and play
Come and play with me now
Hey
You're looking my way
Just come on and play
Just come on and
C-c-c-come on and
So many ways to get high
To keep on losing our mind
To keep us feeling alright
So many ways to get high
So many ways to get high
So many ways to get high
So many ways to get high
So many ways to get

Dead In The Water
I was drifting thinking
You wouldn't let me go
Why was reaching for
Something that wasn't there
Light in the darkest place
Truth in a silent space
Hope when it's hopeless and
There's nothing left to save
I'm all alone stuck in a bottom because you
I'm all broken up all the pieces unglued
I'm seeing everything that I had float away
Thrown to the side like a cast away
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
You know it weighs me down
Pressure building all around
You said you'd never let me drown
But now I'm dead in the water
Time washing over
This sacrifice
Sinking til I'm out of sight
You said you'd bring me back to life
But now I'm dead in the water
Time washing over
Soaked to the bone and now I'm
Drenched in the sorrow of the
Tide that keep rising as my
Thoughts pull me lower
Breathe when you suffocate can't
See when you blinded by the
Flood filling up my lungs
You cannot hear me scream
I'm all alone stuck in a bottom because you
I'm all broken up all the pieces unglued
I'm seeing everything that I had float away
Thrown to the side like a cast away
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
You know it weighs me down
Pressure building all around
You said you'd never let me drown
But now I'm dead in the water
Time washing over
This sacrifice
Sinking til I'm out of sight
You said you'd bring me back to life
But now I'm dead in the water
Time washing over
Gotta get my head back above water
Come and save me cause I'm drowning
Gotta get my head back above water
Pulling me under farther and farther
Gotta get my head back above water
(Come and save me cause I'm drowning)
You know it weighs me down
Pressure building all around
You said you'd never let me drown
But now I'm dead in the water
Time washing over
This sacrifice
Sinking til I'm out of sight
You said you'd bring me back to life
But now I'm dead in the water
Time washing over
