Color Morale, The - In Light In Me Lyrics






How am I supposed to write about hope with catchy hooks and melodies and make you sing along
Well I titled this whole album before I tried to write a song
And the truth is hope can be a burning sun
The closer that you seem to get the quicker you get lost in the sight of
It keeps casting it's shadow of our burdens behind us and the more we try stand inside the light
The more a darkness seems to grow
Is darkness the shade where I've found peace

So maybe this time I need to be standing for someone to believe
Like a weathered oak with know hope carved in me
So maybe this time I need to be standing for someone to believe
You can take the life from me but I'll always be here standing, still
Every time you need me
Hope is at the root but each day
It's still casting a shadow of my darkness behind me
And the more I try to show you with the light
The more a darkness seems to follow
You will never change what you refuse to face
Like a shadow we always grow every time we try to find the light

So maybe this time I need to be standing for someone to believe
Like a weathered oak with know hope carved in me
So maybe this time I need to be standing for someone to believe
You can take the life from me
Maybe this time I need to be
Maybe this time I need to be me
You don't know who you are anymore
Tonight I don't know either but we are standing still

We can't be moved
When hope is at the root of you
Every time the wind grows still and I continue to lose movement
You are there to walk up chin down and carve your name
Every time the wind grows still and life pushes you further
Come carve your name
Know hope in me

Color Morale, The In Light In Me Comments
  1. H.... ....

    To think that Falling In Reverse were #17 on the billboard 200 around that year.

    Meanwhile people just flat-out ignored this album. Life is unfair. :-(

    H.... ....

    I agree on the part that not that many people really noticed this album when it released it was a good one imo!

  2. U.... ....

    I love the first sentence of this song. "Am I supposed to write about hope with catchy hooks and melodies?"

  3. a.... s....

    I love how this song starts off with not being sure of himself but rocks the rest like a champ. Plus this is my favorite song so far by you guys!

  4. E.... ....

    Just caught the tail end of your You Now  broadcast.......Nice throne btw....... haha

  5. V.... R....

    The song names>>>>

  6. c.... ....

    THIS SONG IS FUCKING PERFECT

  7. A.... ....

    Saw them live Saturday. They were even better live!

  8. M.... D....

    Rise records needs to fire whoever is writing the lyrics in the description for there videos...

    M.... D....

    rise records itself is pretty shit .-. this isn't though *.*

  9. D.... ....

    Steve Carey the pfofessional rumster

  10. N.... ....

    wooooow... very nice!

  11. G.... G....

    THE COLOR MORALE <3 

  12. A.... R....

    how am I supposed to write about hope with catchy hooks and melodies and make you sing along... if you ask me you all did more then amazing! ;)

  13. C.... ....

    the fucking best chorus ever

  14. L.... G....

    who cares about money, All the dollars gold and riches couldn't build you a fleet in this time powerful enough to stop what is coming and what is already here.
    The battle for Earth has begun. The Pleiadians will come with flowery sentences about peace and love and light. When they infact intend on shipping every child off the planet.
    When the world seems it is just about to end. They will come in a fury and scoop them up. Humans will be driven back to the hollow Earth.

  15. j.... g....

    how am i supposed to ride your butthole

    j.... g....

    Jarrod Alonge, huh? hahahahaha

  16. t.... ....

    You seem a little obsessed with the dude. You posted several stupid, unnecessary comments to his single comment. Who gives a rat tooth as to what he looks like or where he shops? If he appreciates music then let the dude be.

  17. P.... L....

    @dietermoreno I think the word yoyr looking for is "Enlighten"

  18. d.... ....

    No. His snap back, straigtnened hair, V neck, and his facial expression are telling me "I'm better than you because my parents can afford to buy this for me so I can make up what ever lyrics I want for this song that will give me top comment because I'm better than everyone else."

  19. d.... ....

    "Know hope in Rise Records."

  20. E.... ....

    Back troll. Get back!!!

  21. d.... ....

    *how much money

  22. d.... ....

    In Light In Me how much your parents give you to spend at Hot Topic every month to buy your swag snap backs and black hair dye and V necks.

  23. d.... ....

    Humannequin = human mannequin

    Its not a new thing on this albumn.

  24. d.... ....

    Please In Light In Me why you call this band "screamo".

  25. J.... ....

    Im guessing your not an Emarosa fan they were good when they had Jonny Craig hopefully the next guy is atleast descent

  26. I.... ....

    They have double entendres throughout the album. Know Hope = No Hope. Saviorself = Save Yourself. Hole Hearted = Wholehearted. In Light In Me = Enlighten Me.

  27. M.... S....

    There's re-occurring theme on this album word play.. i.e Know Hope

  28. M.... S....

    I'd like your comment, but your name is "NickLovesScreamo"

  29. S.... R....

    Im never going to forget this now every time i listen to this song...

  30. M.... P....

    You must not have caught on to the persisting theme of word play in this album.

  31. B.... D....

    The song shouldve been titled the light in me or enlighten me because in light in me doesn't makes sense.

  32. J.... R....

    IT CANNOT BE UNSEEN

  33. J.... M....

    DAMN IT. Now all I hear is THAT. Thanks a lot mate. xD

  34. D.... R....

    Just a play on words, similar to Saviorself (Save Yourself).

  35. t.... ....

    Did they mean to title this song Enlighten Me ?

  36. H.... F....

    There is "Hope For Tomorrow" ;D aha!
    But yes, definitely! Cause this is "Know Hope."

  37. A.... ....

    Hey guys! We're AsWeWalk a new band out of NC composed of all currently active duty marines. We all came together and starting writing music that we love and are pretty happy with how it turned out and we'd really appreciate it if you guys could take the time to check us out! We recorded with Drew Fulk from thinksound studios (Upon this dawning, motionless in white, etc) /watch?v=DI2GWYs-tR0

  38. j.... h....

    Seriously, this the best album of 2013, not too mention the most heartfelt, honest and inspirational... TCM has came along way and I will stand by them til the end because I've been there since the beginning

  39. E.... V....

    LOOOOL, didn't even notice.

  40. L.... M....

    Check out my band When Now Meets Then. We just dropped our debut single. Feedback is greatly appreciated /watch?v=STz7lFpqW0I

  41. Y.... S....

    LOL I lost it.

  42. M.... ....

    Made my day

  43. A.... ....

    What songs as in what? WCAR helped write and produce Strange Comfort and Learned Behavior which is clearly stated in the booklet that comes with the album. The Color Morale wrote all other ten songs on the album

  44. H.... W....

    oh yeah, what songs?

  45. A.... ....

    Rip off of WCAR? How could anyone say that? What "shit behind this band" do you know? TCM is one of the most heartfelt and meaningful bands around. Yeah WCAR helped them with 2 songs which is recognized on the album booklet, but that doesn't mean TCM didn't write every other song.

  46. J.... C....

    Very well put man.

  47. J.... O....

    I notice what you're talking about :p
    But gotta love this group :)
    Talented musicians :D !

  48. A.... K....

    His voice is something else, original and amazing. His screams sound a tad bit like Austin Carlile's because they're higher pitched, but he makes him his own. I love it!

  49. O.... ....

    I think I've new favorite band :D

  50. M.... W....

    Every knee shall bow and confess that Jesus is Lord. Repent and believe. He is returning soon. He will appear when you least expect it. Ask for forgiveness and get right with God.

  51. c.... r....

    Go watch the artist profile and then say that

  52. R.... ....

    I hate their new sound, I wish they kept the style from the last album, they were so sexy then...... :/

  53. E.... M....

    Come carve your name, Know Hope in me. -3

  54. T.... w....

    Best album since "conundrum" RIP AKA. Do what ever comes naturally go by feel!

  55. W.... I....

    Don't forget Saviorself, save yourself.

  56. T.... ....

    i think youll find both terms mean the same thing

  57. M.... A....

    Actually, "unclean vocals" is the official term for screaming.

  58. D.... W....

    Unclean vocals??? Lmao, what the fuck is that? I think you'll find it's called screaming.

  59. O.... ....

    Wow I think I've new favorite band :) \m/ sick song

  60. T.... ....

    just like saviorself and hole hearted? catchin on now?

  61. K.... G....

    Not a fan of this type of unclean vocals, unfortunately because I love the message behind the lyrics of this album, I wish I liked the sound

  62. S.... ....

    what nate said. moved as in shaken, not moved as in awed.

  63. S.... R....

    dat jonny craig chorus :P

  64. N.... G....

    @brett pfister i think it means that when we anchor ourselves in hope, we can't be displaced

  65. b.... p....

    What does the line "we can't be moved when hope is at the root. The root of you" exactly mean?

  66. M.... H....

    Yes! Finally some hope in Rise Records!

  67. W.... ....

    This new album sounds beyond epic.

  68. t.... ....

    you will never change what you refuse to face - Awesome line!

  69. P.... A....

    WCAR actually has used auto-tune and pitch correction live. Most likely because their albums are overproduced as shit and can't perform live.

  70. N.... D....

    Hahahah you have never been in a live show of we came as romans XD please! auto tune?

  71. N.... B....

    at the start i thought it said "Am i supposed to ride your butthole"

  72. 1.... ....

    actually they don't use autotune anymore... and they write good lyrics like tcm....

    how is he ignorant cause he personally likes that bad lol....
    and breakdowns in general aren't original so shutup lol....

  73. D.... ....

    And they sound EXACTLY alike (sarcasm)

  74. S.... O....

    I love you.

  75. C.... S....

    This is by far their best work to date! This is my jam! So good!

  76. d.... ....

    I know what you are trying to get at but Joshua Moore from WCARs confirmed that he only wrote 2 songs for Know Hope so maybe this was one of the songs.. But the rest is TCM so dont bash them trying to insinuate things it only makes people upset

  77. T.... E....

    They're a rip off of WCAR? That's total bullshit. Their cleans are in a completely different vocal range, their instrumentals are more distorted compared to WCAR's cleaner/grungier tones on their new albums. TCM's screams also feature a lot of intense low growls, (although not as much compared to their old albums).

  78. C.... B....

    In Light In Me: Enlighten Me /// Saviorself: Save Yourself /// Hole Hearted: Whole Hearted /// Know Hope: (a twist of) No Hope

  79. A.... R....

    TCM amazing work!! For all you guys saying that its the best band on Rise, let's not forget that OM&M and SWS will be releasing new material too ;) peace everyone

  80. A.... I....

    yeah i saw that one too :)

  81. l.... ....

    Northlane & The color morale best bands 2013

  82. P.... D....

    Amazing lyricwork man. Amazing.

  83. T.... V....

    APPARENTLY IT BROKE YOUR CAPS LOCK BUTTON TOO.

  84. M.... S....

    I count 2 grammatical errors in the lyrics lol.

  85. D.... ....

    your mum should grow up

  86. C.... ....

    fuckin great song, this album has blown me away

  87. M.... Y....

    you grow up

  88. b.... ....

    well, every song has a structure to follow. listen to radio's poppy music and you will hear verse,chorus,verse2,chorus,bridge,chorus. plus having breakdowns is part of being in the metalcore or death core genre. if you want to hear screaming in the verses containing heavy riffs and breakdowns and singing in the chorus (then listen to the genre called metalcore.) if you are "tired of it". the AVOID the genre and anything related to bands like this, i.e. Rise Records.

  89. C.... K....

    THIS SONG GAVE ME A BONER MADE ME CRY AND MADE ME HAPPY SIMULTANEOUSLY.

  90. E.... N....

    Reminds me of Dance Gavin Dance, in a good way.

  91. W.... F....

    cleans on this are fucking chilling

  92. P.... ....

    a fan actually named it :)

  93. B.... E....

    Dude, I have to agree with this.

  94. J.... F....

    I love Memphis May Fire bro. But yes their music is generic. You act like I'm saying generic is a bad thing. Its possible to be generic but catchy. But even you have to agree that a lot of bands on Rise sound the same (versus, chorus, breakdown, repeat).

  95. A.... I....

    In light in me.... Enlighten me... good one TCM... good one.

  96. P.... A....

    They proved it with We All Have Demons in 2009. People just couldn't look past the shit this label has been producing. The fact that people think bands like Woe Is Me, Issues, and the other bands that sound the exact same is beyond me.

  97. J.... S....

    Sickkkkk!!!!!!! :D

  98. T.... ....

    This album is so great so far. TCM is really proving themselves to be one of the better bands singed to Rise. Definitely buying this when it comes out.
