Miss May I - Darker Days Lyrics






I have dreams that haunt me.
Dreams that make reality seem like a plague.
I can't block out my memory.
My sorrow won't take back.
Oh it won't take back these days.
I could burn this world down.
Sit back and watch it warm my tears.
But all those ashes will always stick around.
There is no way, to set a-blaze, all of my darker days.
All of my darker days.
All of my darker days.
There is no way, to set ablaze, all of my darker days.
I will never leave it behind.
When the nightmare is my past.
This is my future.
I am now walking on this glass.
I'm always walking on glass.
Walking on this glass.
Life could shatter underneath of me while I walk,
on this glass so carefully.
Falling to my death could only save me.
From these nightmares, nightmares that made me.
Nightmares that made me.
Nightmares that made me.
Falling to my death could only save me.
From these nightmares, nightmares that made me.
I will never leave it behind.
When the nightmare is my past.
This is my future.
I am now walking on this glass.
I will never leave it behind.
When the nightmare is my past.
This is my future.
I am now walking on this glass.

    ozzy mixed on clean

  4. J.... C....

    Everything is good here, but the production is fucking awfull, sounds so powerless :( otherwise musically is really good

  5. M.... ....

    Wer hört sich so einen scheiß an?

  6. i.... ....

    at least this album is better than "At Heart"

  7. p.... q....

    K asco de musica

  8. T.... C....

    this is a pretty cool album... just because its not what YOU wanted it doesnt mean you convince everyone else to hate it... People are assholes haha

  9. R.... H....

    Lame singing

  10. I.... ....

    Fucking terrible. I almost spat my Starbucks latte out when I heard this.

  11. m.... ....

    love this whole album ,i can listen to the whole album without skipping a single track , that is rare with any band or album,thnx for the upload

  12. R.... S....

    Am I the only person who likes their new album?....yes? okay

  13. m.... ....

    Why does everyone act like such a bitch? It's still really good shit. Whether it sounds "similar" or not. It's a different song and still really good.

  14. J.... W....

    People deconstruct music too much.... just enjoy the music..... And this rocks !!!!!!!!

  15. x.... ....

    IDGF THIS SHIT IS GOOD!

    Those galloping breaks are a nice change.

  16. K.... ....

    I see alot of hate for this album in comments. But here's my thoughts.

    Obviously Apologies + Monument were their best albums. Rise isn't a bad album. It just doesn't compare to the first two albums. But guess what guys? Bands fuckin change. People grow up and get tired of the same style of music they make. 

    So morale of the story. This album isn't bad, if it was made by some other band that nobody knew I would say "Yea not bad" but it's definitely not the album us old MMI fans were hoping for. But all in all I think MMI has gotten waaaay too much hate for making NEW music 

  17. T.... G....

    Seriously, you should not focus on whether or not you have already heard the riff or solo, but on whether or not you enjoy it. Pathetic fucks.

  18. E.... P....

    This whole album is so generic.

    E.... P....

    congratulations this band is in a genre and they are very "generic" for the genre.
    Look up the definition of generic before you start pointing out the obviously that every band it generic to the specific genus (genre or group if you dont understand that)

  19. j.... ....

    This blows

  20. T.... W....

    Honestly, this sound is like 10x more metal compared to their last albums and I love it!

    But then the singing comes in and almost totally fucks up every song :/ just sounds terrible!

  21. J.... K....

    fast song with great guitars then that awful clean singing chorus that sounds completely autotuned...wow just completely ruins it, I just don't understand, then back to awesomeness haha loving the guitars on this song

  22. S.... S....

    Why is the screaming part so raspy now?

  23. E.... P....

    Parkway Drive did it better.

    E.... P....

    @Ethan Pemberton the ghost inside too)

  24. J.... ....

    top-1 song in album

  25. T.... W....

    Im trying so hard to get into this new album. And its harder than my dong in the morning.

  26. H.... G....

    I'm really loving the album, but for constructive criticism, Ryan needs to write faster choruses. He always sings so slow and methodical and they somewhat end up blurring together, I feel like I could copy and paste any Miss May I chorus melodies into any other song and they wouldn't feel out of place. I would really like to see him branch out. I think this is his best singing on an album yet and I'm really proud of his growth, but I do think he needs to switch it up, yaknow? 

  27. S.... W....

    Niggas who hate on did album would be the same niggas to suck they dick saying they were sick live to their faces y'all some pussies. Dis is my shit. Find me in the pit

  28. A.... ....

    If At Heart was a hiccup, this album was projectile vomiting.

  29. S.... M....

    omfg this song is the shit. MMI still got it. I don't know what the fuck the rest of you guys are talking about.

  30. j.... t....

    that solo though

  31. c.... r....

    I like it.

  32. M.... D....

    Finally a fricken solo, I've been waiting for that.

  33. t.... r....

    This probably sounds sick live!!!

  34. C.... B....

    New miss may i I do really like there a lot different but so good I love this album

  35. R.... S....

    I honestly really dig this album. I think it's pretty obvious that they're not going back to the old MMI sound and it's not going to please everyone, as you can tell on all the comments on other videos. At Heart wasn't my absolute favorite because it was such a big stray away from Monument and AAFTW, but im really coming around to it because now im not expecting an older album sound, and I enjoy this stuff. It's pretty clear to me that they wanted to go for a more metal sound with solos and and more live vocals, but still keep the Miss May I vibe in their for the fans that don't give a shit about change. I'm proud of these guys for changing it up so much for THEM. Stay metal!

  36. b.... ....

    I love the new screaming it sounds more intense the cleans need to improve

  37. h.... e....

    A top album great screams drums and guitar work stop hating

  38. 1.... ....

    If had to sum up the album in one word it would be.. boring. 1. Levi said he "tried" different vocal techniques yet his voice sounds the same in every song, theirs no variation in his voice... 2. Almost every song in this album has the same song structure(verse, chorus, verse, chorus/outro).. 3. The lyrics are very corny.. 4. Of course to state the obvious, Ryan's singing is horrible once again.. 5. The solos are mediocre.. 6. The drums are nothing to be impressed with(boring).. In conclusion, Miss May I has become one of the biggest over-rated bands iv heard of.. and this is coming from a guy that knows over 20 mmi songs on guitar, don't mean to bash just constructive criticism(I used to be a fan).

  39. E.... A....

    Realy ? It's awsome like Barney

  40. S.... C....

    Awesome!!!!!!

  41. P.... ....

    The music on this album is fantastic. Easily their best so far. But man, the production sucks major balls. Seriously. There's a difference between a more gridy and hardcore sound, and downright bad production sound.

  42. J.... O....

    This album separates the metalheads from the hardcore kids. No doubt about that.

  43. L.... V....

    Sick of the same old comments; "I miss the old MMI" and "it's not AAFTW". This album is SICK. Pack it in with your hipster "I only like the bands oldest release" shit because it's getting old. This band can play more than just breakdowns, and they've really come through with this album. Guitar solos, crazy riffs, raw vocals and there are plenty of breakdowns still. I'm so shocked at how many idiots there are that still expect bands to keep releasing the same albums. At the end of the day Miss May I put a lot into an album that they're proud of, and I think it's killer. Imagine if you spent so much time and effort on an album just for some nobhead keyboard warrior to spend 10 seconds saying "it's shit, you were better before". Fuck off being so ignorant, if you don't like it at least try and be constructive with your criticism. MMI have developed into a proper metal band, so quit your bitching about how it isn't jam-packed with generic breakdowns anymore. Hilarious how the band releases their most metal album with a highly respected producer who has done the likes of Slipknot and Pantera, and you kids want them to go back to their early days of programmed drumming and heavily edited vocals.

    Anyway, my input is that this album is phenomenal. This is the kind of metal that will be remembered in 10 years time. Congrats guys! Definitely think this, End Of Me an Saints Sinners And Greats are the best tracks too, so intense.

    L.... V....

    I agree, it would be pretty discouraging if my "fans" told me my new stuff was straight garbage. But I for one thought they could have done much better with this album, as I know from their previous work that they are extremely talented. Their tracks all seem to follow a fairly repetitive structure, save for a couple, which takes away from the overall album, making it more difficult to just play the album in its entirety. Many of their hits such as "Relentless Chaos" and "Hey Mister" were tracks I could play on repeat over and over again, but none of their songs from this album really caught me like that. So all in all, not a bad album by any means, but the word disappointing comes to mind when considering the album. I believe, however, we can expect great things from their next release!

    L.... V....

    I don't understand what you mean by proper metal band ?, surely with massive amount of subgenre's that metal carries ,saying that just one genre is proper compared to other makes you sound a little elitist yourself

    L.... V....

    I agree, this is actually pretty dope.  It has an older metalcore vibe to it, maybe even a slight melodic death metal influence.  Best thing I've heard from this band.  The cleans almost don't fit anymore though.

    L.... V....

    Joe P I'm a 21 year old emo and love this album. Don't go around downing all scene unless you know what scene is about. which you don't know judging by your ignorant comments.

    L.... V....

    Nice...Stay Metal

  44. D.... H....

    Woohoo! I hope you guys goto warped

  45. H.... ....

    The best album i've heard in years
    You fucks must be deaf or something

    H.... ....

    Dude this album is just too legit to handle!

    H.... ....

    Check out Erra - Augment
    Architects - Lost Forever // Lost Together
    August Burns Red - Rescue & Restore
    I have a feeling you'll like these better.

    H.... ....

    @David Weaver If this album was like their older albums people would complain about them not making new music. A lot of people have unrealistic expectations about bands nowadays ;~;

    H.... ....

    It's a new them so a new sound you know.

  46. C.... S....

    my opinion of this whole album is that Levi is not nearly as good as he used to be but he is still solid. and that the riffs are more creative than anything i've heard from this band before. vocal melodies are lame too

  47. F.... F....

    the breakdown is beauty

  48. D.... ....

    All the hate is completely unwarranted.   Go listen to country if you dont like this.

  49. K.... ....

    opening riff sounds the same as Bleed by Meshuggah. Nice. Its fucking brutal

  50. J.... B....

    Now if only another band can write the song "Darkest Days!" the trilogy of "Dark Days" will be complete.

    J.... B....

    Dark Days is the song that got me into metal

  51. m.... ....

    They burned out .....relentless chaos was the last good thing

    m.... ....

    Second To No One was good too

  52. D.... S....

    I'm about to go mainstream on you guys. I'm a MMI fan and have been for a while, but before I give this album my official opinion, I'm going to listen to it a few times through first. And another note. The reason all these metalcore bands are changing sound is to try something new. Have you ever bought a T-shirt that everyone hates and you wear it anyways? This is kind of like that. Okay, one more note. A7X is my fav band and I think it may be true that these bands are trying too much to be like them and make every album sound completely different from each other. 

  53. J.... F....

    Saying the vocals suck but half of you probably couldn't even do that shit. Suck on that bitches.

    J.... F....

    Its a mid scream pretty much all the way through so all you learn is the easiest possible scream there is. The cleans are all of about 4 notes (a step up from at hearts 3) all in the same octave using what sounds like head voice. Again not very impressive and before you say "make a video showing you can do better" I'm not wasting my time because rhis song would be a warm up for both parts. Im not in anyway saying they suck either but its definitely not either of their best performances that belongs to AAFTW and always will

  54. D.... ....

    Playing it safe, I see

  55. t.... :....

    Fuck all you guys hating on them this is good shit!!

  56. A.... ....

    Once I actually start enjoying a song on this album, Ryan starts singing and it goes to shit. It sounds tooo boring and too similar. I dont feel the passion like I used to before. . Just an opinion. Chill

    A.... ....

    @Gia Chichelo thats cool an all, trying to stick up for these guys but if you truly cared about how hard you have worked on producing an album, should deserve some feedback. No album is perfect and there will be people to criticize regardless. If being in an band, trying to make a living is your lifestyle, its best to get feedback or else your are not growing as an artist. 

    A.... ....

    @Greg Rocheleau i understand what youre saying, but theres a big difference between feedback and hate. For example, he couldve said "Ryan's vocals could be improved" instead of "Once Ryan starts singing it goes to shit" understand what im saying? lol

    A.... ....

    @Gia Chichelo yea i can see your point, but no matter what people will have their own versions of feedback lol

    A.... ....

    @Greg Rocheleau I personally feel his vocals are 50/50 on this album. But this song in particular i agree with your sentiment completely. 

    A.... ....

    +Andrew Jackson I totally agree , I'm on the fence for sure with his vocals.

  57. B.... L....

    I have an idea. Let's all HATE on MMI's new album!! NOBODY'S doing it yet.. it'll be like the next big thing. We'll hate on it before it's cool too! 

    B.... L....

    10 steps ahead of you

  58. C.... L....

    This is fucking legit

  59. D.... ....

    After listening to damn near this whole album. It reminds me of Atreyu. hahaha Which is not what I was expecting from this band... Which this band started out to as a metalcore, progressive band... This is just one of those bands that just tried to make a genre switch and failed doing soo. Well at least from my stand point they failed. Same with Of mice and men.. These big name bands are turning way to fucking generic and are loosing key characteristic's that got people to follow them in the first place.. 

    What a shame... 

    D.... ....

    Couldnt have said it better myself man... Monuments was so fucking good. What the hell made them change it up. I dont get it

    D.... ....

    @***** I don't understand how you could like OM&M and say this band is getting worse. I do agree they are getting worse, but I don't understand the OM&M :s

    D.... ....

    Oh well, we all have different preferences.

    D.... ....

    @Alec Richter +Alec Richter There could be a lot of reasons honestly... We could blame the record label like everyone else or pin it on the members just loosing there spark and trying something new. which I pick the second option. haha honestly put this song against the song "Tides" which was on there first ep and was moved to there first album! they're like different people.

    D.... ....

    @***** Like Kyle said we have our own personal preferences :)

    when you follow members for example, Valentino Arteaga(Drummer of OM&M) if you follow him all the way back to him being the drummer of low definition and just listen to his style and shear badass and compare it to now. you'd be like wtf happened!? haha 

    I still admire OM&M i just consider this newest album a slip up in my opinion.

    Moving on.

  60. S.... V....

    awesome!

  61. J.... C....

    the vocal production on this sucks soooooo bad! I know I wont be buying this album

  62. S.... ....

    production is shit as same as the band

    S.... ....

    Same as your face

  63. A.... M....

    This is the good stuff

  64. Z.... F....

    this is awesome. keep it up Miss May I \m/ 0_0 \m/

  65. K.... ....

    I don't like it but not saying its complete shit. I guess descent....the cleans sound all the same.

    K.... ....

    Yeah, this is pretty much my view on it. Don't like it, but don't love it either. Same can be said for most songs in this album.

    K.... ....

    @HarryNinetyFour Agreed, the album is ok but nothing really exciting. Their not shit but back in the day their old style was more distinct than their new stuff
