Crown The Empire - Evidence Lyrics






This is the road I chose
This is the life I've made
Say what you want but know this world opened her arms for me

I write these words in blood
I write these words for you
This world deserves to finally know the...

Your arrogance blinds you
Why don't you open your mind
And listen to the words
That could save your life

We all grow tired of
What we think we know
But at the end of the day
We have to choose where our paths go

Decide at the fork in the road
Decide at the fork in the road

Just so you know we'll never go under
Please tell me, please tell me
Please try and tell me I'm wrong

You say we follow along
Well now follow along
To these words I say
They're all I have.
To open the door that could never be cracked.

Please try to tell me I'm wrong
And say I'll never belong
Because all your hate
Won't wear me down
I'll still be the last one left wearing the crown

You think we're hopeless and lost
You think we're just fucking pawns
But we will never be
No we will never be

I lie awake and dream of how we will change the world, change the world!
It's up to us to fill in the cracks
And bring this world back to what it could have been

It's up to us, it's up to us

You say we follow along
Well now follow along
To these words I say
They're all I have.
To open the door that could never be cracked.

Please try to tell me I'm wrong
And say I'll never belong
Because all your hate
Won't wear me down
I'll still be the last one left wearing the crown

You'll never find happiness while you live inside hate.
Yeah!

I write these words in blood
I write these words for you
This world deserves to finally know the truth

This is the road I chose
This is the life I've made
Say what you want but know this world opened her arms for me

    RIGHT?! He's gorgeous with it anyways... Like, like Andy... xD It makes him, him I suppose. xD

    c.... ....

    if i ever see them imma be my creep self and ask to feel his mole xD

    c.... ....

    +Chelsea Bravo omfg you're freaking awesome.

    c.... ....

    @Moderacy Thanks xD

    c.... ....

    i saw them in concert recently <33

  27. n.... d....

    both Dave and Andy are great performers but they sound so much better when they scream together,that's just my opinion

    n.... d....

    +Moderacy I've been listening to then for so long I've learned the difference, like knowing that the first performer to scream is Dave

    n.... d....

    @nazeer davis
    I'll keep that in mind, but are their voices really individually distinguishable when they scream? In other words, is it possible to tell them apart based on their voices? Honestly, I always assumed the screaming is only done by Dave, and the singing is only done by Andy, like Austin & Shay/Aaron in Of Mice & Men, but I suppose that is not the case.

    P.S., thanks for responding to my comment basically immediately, considering your comment was posted over a year ago. ;)

    n.... d....

    +Moderacy normally Andy just sings and Dave does the screaming but in the few cases Andy will scream to like in the Johnny Ringo song but Dave does have a deeper tone to his screams

    yes that was a while back

    n.... d....

    +nazeer davis I've re-listened to Makeshift Chemistry, Johnny Ringo, and Initiation, and I can hear Andy's voice screaming. It's freaking beautiful. I love Andy's vocal range. Just wondering, can Dave sing? ;) at least, that you know of, of course.

    n.... d....

    +Moderacy I don't know of Dave can sing I've only heard him scream but I would be someone I would like to hear

  28. I.... T....

    this is the only song i like by cte it's soooooo good.

    I.... T....

    Listen to bloodline or initiation

    I.... T....

    @Isabel Telke Listen to Voices. Its Great.

    I.... T....

    @Isabel Telke You should listen to Makeshift Chemistry

    I.... T....

    Basically you should re listen to every other song by them if this is the only one you like.

    I.... T....

    Because this isn't their best song

  29. M.... ....

    song about expanding your consciousness and raising your vibration. Adronis, Bashar, and most Pleiadians can help with this. it's up to us.

  30. V.... N....

    Whats The Lyrics..?

  31. l.... c....

    Also my favorite song :)

  32. l.... c....

    It sounds like they're talking about the illuminati and trying to tell everyone to wake up from the bull shit that were always fed

    l.... c....

    You know it's prob true

    l.... c....

    +leonardo colin I hear their relationship with the illuminati in Johnny Ringo, tbh. ;) I agree with Donald, it is probably true.

  33. l.... c....

    It sounds like they're singing about the government and trying to wake people up and understand. I love this song!

  34. F.... C....

    One of my favorite songs by that band.

  35. N.... L....

    By far the best album in the genre

    N.... L....

    I somewhat can not disagree, but I can say Bring Me the Horizon and Memphis May Fire also put out near perfect albums. If you like CTE you will like Palisades.

    N.... L....

    +Micheal Ruiz in my opinion, some of palisades songs are either a hit or miss

    N.... L....

    @Brooke Fab Yeah. Outcasts, Whatever You Want It To Be, and High and Low are awesome, But other songs suck  

    N.... L....

    +Nick Luciano couldn't agree with you more. Like not trying to bash but some of their lyrics are just immatureeee. but if that's their taste, then whatever. but don't get me wrong, like I said, they aren't a bad band.

  36. m.... o....

    ♥.♥

  37. i.... g....

    ok I would like to point something out, andy (lead singer) doesn't have his mole above his mouth in this picture because of course they edited but its like why would you get rid of that it adds carachter and andy is beautiful either way..

    i.... g....

    @Jensen Steady I don't think he has because he has it in the latest cte music video (correct me if I'm wrong)

    i.... g....

    @Jensen Steady I just went to a CTE concert in Raleigh on Wednesday and he still had his mole

    i.... g....

    Kinda makes me feel shitty that they did that ... 1. I have a mole EXACTLY like Andy where its noticeable but its smaller and a bit higher up , between my lip and nose and I hate it :/ 2. I've had it removed in October and it came right back (disclaimer of removal) and I hate it and now I'm just thinking , so you want to Photoshop it off so he looks better ? Great how does that make me feel....

    i.... g....

    @adric71300 I know how you feel, I used to have the same thing but mine disappeared eventually (don't ask me how it happened I have no idea). But still, having it defines who you are and it makes you more unique. You should be proud of it.

    i.... g....

    ireland greavette
    Hell yea

  38. c.... c....

    I dont want thuis shit. where are the damn lyric videos that used to pop up before "punk goes?" official lyric videos are always Useless, like, official lyric videos are as good as videos without lyrics

  39. O.... V....

    Love this song; see you guys on the Warped Tour!!!

    O.... V....

    (  .  Y  .  )

    O.... V....

    @Vair ity perv xD 

    O.... V....

    @ironman and frands i have a sexy imagination ;)

  40. R.... C....

    The screams at 0:47 and 2:43 always give me goosebumps. This song is rated so low in popularity ratings on iTunes, but it's the second best song on the album in my opinion (second only to Memories of a Broken Heart).

  41. E.... B....

    You will never find happiness while you live inside hate. TRUTH

  42. M.... R....

    2:44 tho :D

  43. S.... A....

    Best part: 2:37 - 2:45

    S.... A....

    Oh yes, i feel so energized when i hear that part. Something inside me just wanna rawr out loud.

    S.... A....

    That part is like an orgasm to the ears

    S.... A....

    @Tavo Garcia Ummm. . . 
    There's really nothing I could say to that that would make it less weird, so  . . .
    I'm just not going to say anything.

    S.... A....

    Best part: 0:00 - 3:27

    S.... A....

    @Frostbite0208 True, true.

    J.... P....

    Jarrek Pope my life motto.

    J.... P....

    happiness is in the eye of the beholder

    J.... P....

    h8 can drive creativeness, instead of negetive thoughts, maybe try lendn a hand and unite. stay true to you is what matters most. lightly

  50. I.... Z....

    Love this song

  51. L.... R....

    Love this song so much.

  52. D.... D....

    I didn't even know this song existed until about yesterday ._.

  53. H.... ....

    May I just say, that throughout the entire album stream:

    There hasn't been a single song I didn't love. 

    H.... ....

    It is literally the first album where I've not had any doubts about any songs when listening through for the first time haha

    H.... ....

    Dude I am a big Linkin Park fan too !

    H.... ....

    +Daniel Craig most people are

  54. J.... B....

    the fact that the lyrics they have in the about box thingy are wrong and not in order is really funny 

  55. R.... A....

    OMG! cant stop laughing!!!! You made my day!!!!

  56. R.... ....

    Bananas.

  57. U.... ....

    I fucking love CTE

  61. V.... R....

  62. A.... L....

    YOU'LL NEVER FIND A PENIS WHILE YOU LIVE INSIDE HERE

  63. U.... ....

    Bleed cte forever

  64. L.... M....

    Ugh I'm so mad because I found this on a different website and it said it was called Forever and now I'm embarrassed because I've been calling it that! I even have it downloaded as Forever ugh

  65. M.... ....

    Tell me I'm not the only one that gets chills at the 2:37 line.

  66. P.... R....

    did anyone else notice that the lyrics that rise posted in the description are wrong?

  67. T.... ....

    Andy: Clean Vocals
    David: Unclean Vocals (Andy and David do switch off sometimes)
    Brent: Drums
    Ben: Lead Guitar
    Hayden: Bass
    Brandon: Guitar

  68. B.... C....

    No. Don't be one of those people.
    stOP.

  69. t.... r....

  72. A.... M....

    This band :D

  73. S.... M....

    2:45 <3 love this song

  74. E.... M....

    If They were to ever be Religious At least you know how they feel about the Devil. Don't ever trust trust that fucker. lol

  75. K.... V....

    I absolutely love crown the empire <3

  76. B.... M....

    this song is fucking bullshit! jk its amazing :)

  77. j.... n....

    2:43 is amazing !

  78. C.... S....

    0:27-0:54 so sick!

  79. J.... ....

    I love crown the empire!

  80. A.... ....

    2:37 TRUE!

  81. V.... A....

    Me too. Andy's voice is flawless.

  82. F.... ....

    Pretty much that even though you're hated by people who cannot accept you, You're better than them if you have an open mind and their hate won't break you down.

  83. M.... ....

    2:43 gives me chills.

  84. P.... M....

    my favorite fav from them

  85. H.... T....

    I think a song quote fits in perfectly, "YOUR ARROGANCE BLINDS YOU, WHY DON'T YOU OPEN YOUR MIND, AND LISTEN TO THE WORDS THAT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE."

  86. H.... T....

    YOUR ARROGANCE BLINDS YOU....

  87. V.... A....

    Not even close. Not every song about "changing the world" is about religion.

  88. S.... S....

    Why does it matter?

  89. B.... B....

    Before you post false information you should look up the definition so as not to look foolish. Webster Dictionary states clearly that you are retarded. Also, below the definitions it shows a list of synonyms (words that mean the same thing) and antonyms (words that mean the OPPOSITE) and guess what falls under antonyms....ATHEISM or godlessness. Atheism is a religion the way bald is a hair color.

  90. z.... ....

    You're a special kind of stupid.

  91. S.... B....

    .....that last sentence made no sense. if i talk about cupcakes, i'm not automatically making a it a religion

  92. O.... N....

    2.44 - 2.50.... <3

  93. b.... r....

    2:35 - 2:50 my favorite part XD

  94. R.... ....

    what was his comment all i seen is him saying he is atheist and thats not really a top comment to get rid of theres nothing really wrong with it

  95. L.... B....

    the part where it goes "you'll never find happiness while you live inside hate" reminds me of avenged sevenfold.

  96. S.... O....

    Give me the top comment so we have another meaningless top comment, another than MrCocaColour's.

  97. C.... V....

    The chorus reminds me of Being As An Ocean's 'The Hardest Part...' :O

  98. A.... S....

    Literal definition of atheism: The lack (thus, a-) of a belief in any god(s) (-theism). Atheism does not in the slightest way entail any religious nature (no inherent set of rules, no gods of any sort or kind) and it does not necessarily entail any given worldview.
