Biffy Clyro - Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies Lyrics






Come on baby do you think it's good to feel
Like I'm lying here swimming in memories
I fear God because everything dies babe
Got a gun in the back of my car
A spasm of good sense is making my eye twitch
I've had enough of all your consolation

I'm drowning caught in a shit tide
Tape my face to the inside of love
Nothing to eat but fears in the back seat
Well I've met God and he had nothing to say to me

I pray to God that you're right before my eyes
Bathed in white light with halos in your eyes

Don't wanna waste no more time
Time's what we don't have
Everywhere I look someone dies
Wonder when it's my turn

How well do you know me?
Leave an open door, what you looking for
Babe when you come down?
I built a time machine to escape from
All the pain in the back of my car
Living's a problem because everything dies babe
Save yourself you're not too far away

I pray to God that you're right before my eyes
Bathed in white light with halos in your eyes

Don't wanna waste no more time
Time's what we don't have
Everywhere I look someone dies
Wonder when it's my turn

Biffy Clyro Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies Comments
  1. W.... R....

    Needs more pixels

  2. A.... B....

    one of their best songs

  3. F.... S....

    I think this still probably goes down in my book as one of the most epic songs of all time.

  4. A.... B....

    Back when MTV Puts good music

  5. y.... l....

    I time traveled

  6. A.... ....

    The background screams in the final chorus are amazing

    A.... ....

    When I first noticed them, I thought they were massively out of place, but I've grown to like that.

  7. J.... O....

    RIP Nipsey

  8. B.... ....

    I still looove this song !

  9. N.... P....

    Still a fuckin awesome song, gets my whole family singing along in the car haha

  10. S.... S....

    Nick Knowles best pals

  11. R.... G....

    Living is a problem because everything DIY’s - with Nick Knowles

  12. D.... B....

    Does anyone remember when the ghost hunters used this song for their season 10 teaser trailer? It's where I heard it first actually.

  13. B.... C....

    I was annoyed when Noel Gallagher said Biffy where the UK’s Foo Fighters! No there are Biffy Clyro, unique and amazing 🤬

    B.... C....

    Hate Noel and Liam and oasis and beady eye etc. Can't stand em. Sorry had to express that lol. And I agree

  14. S.... R....

    Would love glasvegas and Buffy to come back

  15. D.... ....

    Only 1 million views? this song was played non stop on music channels way back when.

    D.... ....

    I played this on a loop in the day

  16. C.... E....

    Its a bit all over the place

  17. D.... B....

    I love the key change in the chorus so much 'Bathed in white light'

  18. I.... -....

    Love 0:30

  23. B.... J....

    I don't why, but Biffy Clyro reminds me of Harry Potter

    B.... J....

    Bruno Justo you do realise ‘Biffy Clyro’ isn’t the lead singers name, right?

  24. C.... Y....

    Biffy fucking Clyro

  25. D.... P....

    Yay a MILLION views. We did it!!!

  26. T.... ....

    It's sad that this (posted in 2009) just hit 1 mill views about 5 days ago and Taylor Swift's trash song has 30 million views in 2 days

    T.... ....

    Taylor swift is a #mtf💯

    T.... ....

    @Andrew Glover I'm fairly sure she was born female.

    T.... ....

    Mad world

    T.... ....

    just take comfort in the fact that you have good taste.

  27. r.... ....

    Just saw them in Benicassim few weeks ago. Brutal.

  28. W.... K....

    First Biffy song listened and was hooked

  29. S.... ....

    Not even 1 mill views!

  30. P.... s....

    Well i know what Oliver Queen was doing on that island the whole time

  31. S.... D....

    Is this the song that had a long intro, back when it was first released?

    S.... D....

    Yeah, this and Glitter and Trauma have extended intros

  32. J.... D....

    biffy's best tune to date in my opinion but no doubt many will disagree!

  33. A.... N....

    Goal 3 Anyone???

  34. P.... L....

    Video made in the Stockades of Stormwind.

  35. J.... D....

    best biffy tune, no other one will come close!

  36. H.... S....

    10 year anniversary tour for puzzle this year plzzzz🙋🏽

  37. b.... b....

    I love biffy clyro

  38. S.... S....

    I've recently bought this record instead of their new album. Best decision I've made even though some time in the future I will bought the 2016 album (I still don't like it)

    S.... S....

    I thought I was alone!

    S.... S....

    Steven Stifler you listen play some of the tracks live and you'll love it. I hated re arrange before seeing them playing it live

  39. S.... ....

    Anyone else here from the soundtrack of Insidious

  40. D.... ....

    this is one of their best tunes, if not their best, imo.

  41. Z.... J....

    swimming in mammories

  42. T.... 1....

    Is it me or is this the song from the start of goal 3

  43. S.... I....

    2016 theme song

  44. U.... ....

    These guys appear to be huge in the UK yet no one here across the pond knows who they are

  45. l.... L....

    what a beautiful song..love it

  46. m.... ....

    amazing

  47. M.... P....

    this is some fucking underrated shit right here

  48. H.... R....

    their music is an inspiration to everyone 💜

  49. A.... R....

    The (instrumental part of the) intro kinda reminds me of the one of Chris Cornell's 'Can't Change Me'.

  50. G.... D....

    BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!
    Trust, I'm on my 7th amber nectar (Fosters) & chuffing some quality AK47 . . . .
    & I'm feeling this, fuckin quality choon!!!

  51. A.... B....

    just marvellous! :)

  52. k.... ....

    Can Biffy just get the recognition they deserve I mean COME ON 😂

    k.... ....

    SERIOUS RECOG-FUCKIN-NITION RIGHT HERE BRUV! !!!!!
    This choon, this band, achieve the very rare of FIERCE & beautiful within the same spectrum, IMO ;-)! !!

    k.... ....

    I'm so excited to go out to see biffy clyro but talking about living as a poberlom its so good

    k.... ....

    Fully in agreement

    k.... ....

    Biffy did with this album. Having had albums reach the top 78,48 and 47 respectively before the release of Puzzle. No2,album. Believe opposites went to No 1. They’ll never be Justin bieber,,the rock not kiddy pop. Anyways,enjoy the BIFF

  53. M.... R....

    I dig Biffy but this sounds like Foo Fighters

    M.... R....

    so what?

    M.... R....

    Nah. Not in the slightest mate.

  54. C.... C....

    i love 90 percent of Biffy Clyro songs and this is epic classic.new album is top notch too

  55. D.... S....

    fuck this shit, going back to Metallica

    D.... S....

    Dizo Skz go back to : do do flame

  56. P.... D....

    Something's awfully wrong with the audio quality here.

  57. C.... R....

    I miss THIS Biffy

    C.... R....

    Matthew Quinn, what do you want from them? Same old stuff over and over again? Where can they go from THIS? Only a bit poppier, more electronic or something like that. It's not like they're playing indie-pop now (even though I'd listen to that, lol)! Times have changed, people have changed, so they have to change too!
    I almost stopped listening to my fave band 5 years ago, because they became a bit poppier and I hated it. And like 3 years ago I listened to them again and I freaking loved it, because my tastes have changed over the years. So, if you prefer this heavy/experimental style then enjoy and don't ruin the mood for others, please. Biffy don't suck, they're just trying something new, man. You'll just get bored of them and they will die as a band if they don't change. The only other way they have is to go full heavy metal or something like that.

    C.... R....

    Ahmad Utsiev their first 4 albums all had a diffirent sound and their last 3 (which absolutley suck) sound the same.
    If you like their new stuff then good for you lad.
    But i like alot of people fell in Love with biffy with their original sound and to go from that to what They are playing nowadays is such a big difference.
    If that is what you call evolution then music is fucked.
    So i stand by what is say.............
    Biffy suck now

    C.... R....

    Yeah this was when they were sick..

    C.... R....

    I love puzzles, but I honestly arent keen on their earlier stuff. I like a bit of weird but that took it to the next level tho lol 😂 I was introduced to biffy when I was about seven or eight (?) I think during only revolutions when they got more popular so I grew up on that album and will always have respect for it. And I'm sorry, but you can't tell me that many of horror isn't a hit. I HATE oasis, and I hate the song, but I can admit that wonderwall is a hit, even if, again, I CANT STAND IT. Ahem anyway I loved opposites and I like ellipsis as well, and the new song they just released is sick too. Similarities wasn't my thing tho either, but that's just my opinion. But I'm not gonna say "Biffy is shit" because I thought one album was boring, and I'm still gonna be just as exited for the next album, which goes to show how good of a band they really are. Let them do what they want, and If you don't like that or respect that its their band then become a fucking biffy tribute band who only play their old stuff. If a band doesn't adapt or change they're style then they don't deserve to be call a band. What biffy is doing is great and highly respectable. Stop complaining.

    C.... R....

    Will Daniels that’s what good bands do..

  58. b.... R....

    the only biffy song I like. but it's so good

    b.... R....

    You listened to 57, Victory over the Sun or Black Chandelier.

    b.... R....

    I'm a huge Biffy fan and this is one of my least favourite songs.

  59. C.... M....

    Not even got a million views

    C.... M....

    It's such a shame they deserve so much more recognition

    C.... M....

    Chris Milson I

  60. G.... ....

    Goosebumps. Just... Goosebumps...

  61. D.... H....

    Never been the biggest Biffy fan, but this song is absolutely amazing.

    D.... H....

    I love biffy and this song is shite lol

    D.... H....

    This is my favourite song of them. It's awesome

    D.... H....

    listen to whos got a match. love it

  62. S.... J....

    he is amazing he just makes me happy all his songs has a meaning and i can relate to most of them there all just amazing

    S.... J....

    +C2302 I think you mean they're***

  63. M.... O....

    Me gusta mucho la banda!!!♡ ojala piensen venir a colombia biffy clyro :)

  64. D.... D....

    Biffy went shit after this song.

    D.... D....

    too right!

    D.... D....

    Hardly.

    D.... D....

    +Darren Dukes Afraid of change?

  65. �.... �....

    I've probably had this on repeat for at least two months before I even heard any other (amazing) Biffy Clyro song

  66. E.... S....

    So.. explain me this.. They got their shirts.. ON? What band is this?

    Amazing song tho<33

  67. K.... C....

    I could listen to this on repeat, used to listen to it nearly every time I got back from College on MTV2, I fell in love instantly with the song and Simon, lol :D

  68. b.... w....

    Remember this being on MTV2 on the rock chart all the time before school and now ive graduated uni. Shit mannnnn.

  69. r.... ....

    clipping

  70. J.... D....

    Scotlands finest band ever in my opinion

    J.... D....

    dunno, but they rock!

    J.... D....

    Mogwai. Hands down.

    J.... D....

    Check out Sucioperro, quite similar to 03 era Biffy

    J.... D....

    I really like Franz Ferdinand and Primal Scream too

  71. J.... R....

    Listening to the new Foo Fighters (Something from Nothing) song made me come back to this as I haven't listened to Puzzle in ages. Now, hearing this, I'm pretty convinced that everything the Foo Fighters have done since 2007 has been inspired by this record. Shame Biffy's never gotten the level of success they deserve here in the States. :(

    J.... R....

    I prefer Biffy Clyro over Foo Fighters any day, but this song is a total rip off to "All My Life" by Foo Fighters

    J.... R....

    @AmazingJoe96 yeah they are

    J.... R....

    @Lee Bragg No foo fighters are really popular but biffy are just as popular here in England. Probably have a bigger fan base in Scotland

    J.... R....

    AmazingJoe96 i don’t think any band is bigger than foo fighters anywhere.. but biffy are incredibly underrated

    J.... R....

    Martin Rose this song sounds nothing like all my life.. it’s in a different time signature and everything...

  72. B.... D....

    yo i heard them like 6 yrs ago, but i just noticed the intro to their song is the intro to insidious the movie prt 1 and 2

    B.... D....

    my duck so it is good catch

  73. S.... N....

    no idea what this song is about, but it sounds cool!

    S.... N....

    Philosophy of living only amounting to dying i guess

    S.... N....

    About living life as you don't have all the time in the world , I think anyway

    S.... N....

    Luke Andrew

    S.... N....

    Sorry dude...tecnical error

  74. L.... Y....

    Love biffy always dead sexy

  75. r.... ....

    everywhere I go someone dies!! I first heard this in Iraq and it hit a cord with that line as it was too true! +1 to the Scots!

  76. s.... 6....

    how brutally true

    s.... 6....

    Hi.... Britta Eickstädt...love

  77. s.... 6....

    don´t wanna waste all my time
    time´s what we ain´t got.......

  78. s.... 6....

    of course... we know that....a great punky song of bc......
    i love them...
    always

    s.... 6....

    I discover it.... I like!

  79. S.... ....

    Replay replay replay replayyy !!!!!!

  80. t.... ....

    When they are sending my body through to get burned I want this song playing

    t.... ....

    thehewguy same

  81. p.... ....

    not the same without the intro 

    p.... ....

    Yeah,where's that mad intro on the album version? It used to drive my friend scatty when he played the album in his car but I liked it in its own way,and super song that it leads into.

    p.... ....

    They didn,t only cut the intro, but the midddle section too, it's really not the same

    p.... ....

    The intro only adds to what is a fucking epic song, shame it’s missed out on this

  82. M.... ....

    Awesome song. But why cut the intro? :l

    M.... ....

    Well I beg to differ. Except for the radio friendly part maybe.

    M.... ....

    Well, for me this intro is a bit boring. I guess that's why it isn't radio friendly, because too monotonous... But mine is just an opinion.

    M.... ....

    The intro is long, atmospheric, rhythmically complex and experimental. Fine for biffy but not for a radio single.

    M.... ....

    because its bloody long

    M.... ....

    Marlies M too powerful a message

  83. T.... A....

    Such an Awesome song :D

  84. T.... ....

    fav biffy song

  85. T.... ....

    Jach Harrop thats probably on purpose since Simon Neil is a big fan of Nirvana

  86. �.... L....

    @RandallDubin, why on earth come and watch this awesome video if your just going to hate it, Biffy have been going since '95 and obviously know what they are doing to say they and now getting the recognition they deserve, go troll somewhere else!!

  87. J.... H....

    This videos lighting makes it look alot like smells like teen spirit

    J.... H....

    Rolling and scratching

  88. B.... B....

    if dave was never in nirvana then no one would give a shit bout the foo fighters,face it there shit

  89. L.... A....

    And after this video, they've lost their shirts.

  90. A.... M....

    Only one thing pisses me off about this video and it's the fact that this has been cut down from five minutes to four.

  91. R.... D....

    Opinion not based in fact. Let's be real here, these fucking wannabes posers couldn't even carry Dave Grohl's guitar case.

  92. m.... ....

    i dont think theyre similiar

  93. J.... F....

    in short: awesome song, depressing lyrics

  94. l.... ....

    Living is a problem because everything dies - a very good quote right in the title.
