With every letter I read,
I see their desperate cries to find the missing piece.
They just want to believe
someone can take away the burdens they carry.
Who am I to be here?
I am no different than them.
We are the same you see?
I wear my heart on my sleeve
For everyone to see
The man I want to be.
I just hope they see you
When they look at me,
because you are everything that I need to be.
My heart is heavy & torn,
Weighed down by all my mistakes & the chains I've worn.
A constant struggle with fear,
Unsure if I was enough from the day I was born.
But you see the beauty in my flaws;
you pick me up when I fall,
show me the way when I am lost.
In the eye of the storm you show me I'm not alone
& give me strength to carry on!
I wear my heart on my sleeve
For everyone to see
The man I want to be.
I just hope they see you when they look at me,
cause you are everything that I need to be.
This is beautiful.
As a christian i hear the words and feel like this needs to be applied to my life more than ever. "I just hope they see you when they look at me. Cause you are everything i need to be." just hearing that one line tugs at my heart, i don't want people to just see me but i want them to see Christ in my words and actions. without a doubt this is the best song on the album in my opinion!!
100% agree!
k.
I'm with you a thousand percent Matt.

How ignorant.
Travis Clement It's not ignorant to have your own beliefs. If anything I think it's ignorant to have a religion considering 90% of the time you were brainwashed into it as a kid and we all know kids will believe anything their parents tell them and people just cling onto it because it feels good and it's nice to have it. I mean, think about it. If you never heard of any religion and after you graduated highschool you were allowed to choose freely without any influence. How many religious people would there be then? (Not a lot) But at the end of the day, I think when people look at you, any goodness they see should be credited to *you*, I never get why people want to credit their deeds or hard work to God, they did it themselves. They became that person themselves. But I suppose old habits die hard and religion will continue to be passed along and held onto for the sole reason that we're taught it as kids so it's a fact to us and that makes us teach it to our kids as well and it's a never ending cycle.
I feel like MMF has taken a new feel a little. They are taking it to a not so bad place. I of course loved The Hollow and Challenger. But I really like this album as well. I hope someone else feels the same ;u;
"I wear my heart on my sleeve For everyone to see The man I want to be. I just hope they see you When they look at me,"
Such powerful words
Matty's lyrics make my want to go out into this messed up world and be a better person, and not just to make everyone around me happy but, for the sake of myself...damn. More people need to listen to MMF, Matty's lyrics/voice are amazing!!!
I am here because I can't let go of someone from my past, someone who ment so much to me and the thought of her being led by the ways of the world and bad influences tears my heart appart. I loved her and tried to hold on to her for too long. She took a very important piece out of me that I can't seem to get back. I can't be happy knowing she used to be so much to me and now it's gone. The reason I came here is because I'm trying to figure out who I can be without her. This suffering will go away someday ... but until then I will figure out who I need to be.
Every sun rise
Everys sun set
Will help you to forget
her name
her smile
her eyes
bmth medusa
damn.. me too lol
Be like Him.
i feel for you. keep strong brother
I know how you feel! But we can't do anything that's our Heavenly Fathers Job. We just gotta have the faith to let Go and let The Father take over its Him who can do everything!
I never heard this song, but looking at the lyrics, they really explain me. Especially this line, "I just hope they see you. When they look at me, because you are everything that I need to be. My heart is heavy & torn, weighed down by all my mistakes & the chains I've worn." That part, right there, my friends are everything to me. My heart is weighed down by mistakes, but I'm happy, although, they all remember my mistakes; nothing good. I've been put down; a lot, but I'm used to it. Life isn't perfect, I know it's not. Nothing is perfect, like us. We are broken; imperfect. Memphis May Fire, you guys are amazing. You guys have perfect lyrics, that explain so much, in just..amazing ways.
Sounds like you wear your heart on your sleeve to bad not everyone can be like that. U have truly mastered who u r when you have accepted your mistakes and learned from them.
I feel its better to relate to one when there open about there feelings and what they have been through instead of hiding behind a rock acting like everything is perfect. Very cool to see that and very much enjoyed what you wrote. Don't stop living your life that way because you'll learn so much and build people up at the same time...
That's was depth nice I never thought of a book as a journey of ones life... Like writing pages that's cool...
For sure... :X
Yeah I found this band a couple weeks ago there impressive I like the lyrics and the strong messages they bring...
I feel like, he is saying exactly what i have inside me. I just identified myself with this album, the best i heard in years.
Amo esta música 🖤
tenho uns sons no meu canal vg7 oficial também confere la talvez goste
speechless and need to be are probably the best songs on here... because they actually stand out, unlike the other set of songs that all just sound like one long song.
I think this is the only song that brings me to tears when i listen to it. These guys are honestly amazing.
Usually i prefer songs with clean&scream vocals. But this one. Means so much ! How could anyone dislike it?
My interpretation of when Matty says "I just hope they see you when they look at me because you are everything I need to be" is having someone who inspires you to be a better person; such as a parent, sibling, or even your favorite musician. And that's what i find so amazing about this album. So many different ways to interpret the lyrics. Just wish everyone complaining about the lyrics because "they're about god" would see it that way too. Matty said that he wrote most of these songs because god helped him get through his problems, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it has to mean the same thing to us (the fans). This is definitely my favorite album from MMF. :)
I'm loving this album so much. I think I like it more than Challenger.
People that are hating on this album, by far, these are the best lyrics they've written. Matty is just being himself and writing about what he finds important, versus The Hollow (which was written from a bunch of different perspectives). And I feel that he's singing lower than he used to because he realized he can't sing super high live every night (aka, why they've never played The Abandoned live). The lyrics are the seriously the best in the genre for me right now.
Well said
I personally really like the softer songs the best on this album. I feel Challenger beats this one as far as heavy songs go. But the soft ones on here are BEAUTIFUL. And beat Challenger. Obviously since it only had Miles Away as a soft song.
Well said! I agree with you a 100%!! 👌
agreed but Challenger Was a Better album (in my opinion)
Well, to be fair and honest.....THE NEW ALBUM is so fucking gay. They've totaly changed from an awesome underground metalband to this......Every goddamn song is weak. They failed.
Christina J.K. Hjørungdal they did not fail, this album is a pure masterpiece.
You cannot find beauty in this?
Blessed and highly favored. Your faith has restored you all,made you new. Free through all time, space and dimensions, physical and metaphysical, no weapon formed against us shall prosper,in Jesus Christ Mighty Name, Amen
Slow songs on this album are so well written. They show they've been thoung a lot. The melodies are perfect. Fast song are good but in certain times memphis do rare things but still awsome. Thank you for this song guys.
This is a different perspective and a new feel to MMF, which is absolute art. As far as people who are dissing this album; when bands become slightly diverse, it's bad. Yet, you complain that they sound the same throughout their albums. There's only so much they can fucking do and change; give it a rest.
I'm not religious, in fact, I hate religion, but I like how Matty wrote the lyrics in such a way that you can interpret them to be a significant other or another religion's deity. The same with the rest of the album. Again I'm an atheist and HATE religion, but love the style and way Matty writes lyrics. Big fan.
Won't stop God from pursuing you.
+Joshua Freitag True
Christ is not a religion, hate it too
Loving this new album so far
I am in love with this album! I've been a huge fan of this band since even their first singer. Matty really inspires me to be the better Christian I know I should be and he is really helpful when it comes to my depression issues. And also, everyone has their own beliefs. No one has the right to dis other peoples' religions. At the end of the day, these are very good songs with very good meanings and it doesn't matter if you believe in God because the songs still have very deep and powerful meaning to them and everyone should just be kind and respect each others views on this album.
I think Matty is trying to communicate that we put conditions on how we love one another, we'll often demand "this" from others for "that" in return. God's love is not like that. It is "Unconditional". We bring nothing because He is everything. He is the love and perfection we are all looking for.
Not to be a buzzkill, but people have every right to dis other people's religions.
I'm foreseeing an Acoustic version. Anyone agree?
Already kinda IS
mitomen2000 I can agree with that but I mean souly an acoustic guitar in the back.
i'm feeling the new Miles Away :)
Bailey O'Halloran I didnt mind kellin in it but when I saw them with A skylit drive, their singer did Kellin's part, I liked that a lot more.
Any song can be acoustic.
"My heart is heavy & torn,
Weighed down by all my mistakes & the chains I've worn.
A constant struggle with fear,
Unsure if I was enough from the day I was born.
But you see the beauty in my flaws;
you pick me up when I fall,
show me the way when I am lost.
In the eye of the storm you show me I'm not alone
& give me strength to carry on!"
The feels T____T Its too much Dx
I love this so much, their heart beats for God, and their music helps remind me of how much I need him.
I can't even begin to explain how much I love this song. Its just so perfect and the lyrics mean so much
Like Matty said, he isn't trying to shove religion down your throat. He says he made these songs for people to relate to, and while maybe people who support the Christian God, it would make more sense. It still can mean a special or important person in your life. It doesn't have to be what he's implying, he said that you can take it in a way that helps you most.
I love this song,,,
this song brings me a lot of feelings
I love this band because every songs they write is meaningful. I love matty voice too. His voice is superb.
matty knows how to put lyrics together and make you think a second chance...
kika carrillo That second chance is always there. That's what Jesus died for. God bless.
Help us to know you Heavenly Father
This album is perfect. I've connected to it in more ways than one. I knew Memphis May Fire wouldn't let me down.
I love that they keep putting out renditions of this song every album, from the hollow to challenger and now this. Such a dope concept I think.
what was it on challenger?
Miles away has a lot of the same notes. I think it even goes as far back as Vaulted Ceilings on Between the line.
I love how they incorporated the melody from The Burden !
Best song on the album
The love of God, who sent his son,Jesus, is truly the most powerful. God bless.
So much passion when i sing along. Idk why. I just do. Anyone else do the same?
Definetly the best album i've heard since a LONG time, every kind mixed .... this is brilliant !
I love this song so much. It means so much to me. I just want to be happy on the inside as well as the outside but I'm not feeling like I'm much of either. I also just want to serve God so much that people see Him when they look at me or speak of me. I feel like I'm failing at all of those things but hopefully it will get better.
I think in terms of lyrical meaning this album beats the rest. I'm so in love with anything MMF puts out. I'll always be a fan.
can not wait to see MMF on their Unconditional tour
I actually think this is my favorite song on the album simply because it sounds to me like they are just stepping back for a minute and worshiping God.
People should just sit back and enjoy the music irrespective of their personal beliefs and that of others. Everything is open to interpretation and that's what makes music beautiful.
I feel like this album helped me with so much
Beautiful song. Thank you very much Memphis may fire for this song.
3:05 ❤️❤️❤️
Started thinking about the lyrics from this song the other day. I forgot how incredible this album was.. ❤
This song gave me instant goosebumps… It has been a long time since I have heard a song that made me instantly put down what I was doing and focus solely on the song…
love this song so much its on my college playlist this band just gets better and better you saved me from myself
Love you god so much you know what going on in my life need you
this song hits home in a lot of different ways...
Very better from miles away. Words! Atmosphere is awesome!
I luv you Memphis may fire ❤
Beautiful.
I love how so many people get butt hurt and mad when bands change, but when memphis may fire doesn't change, they find a way to get butt hurt over that too. I mean, I love their music and the music they produce fits them and works for them. Why change up something that's working? Why change up something they clearly enjoy? Calm down, if you want something different go get something different, stop complaining about it because it will get you nowhere.
Loving the Spirituality of this album!!!
aaaaaaa crl que nostalgia ouvir essas músicas 😍
I'm also sort of not liking the lyrics to the new album. But Matty loves god and I can respect his beliefs. I just come up with a different meaning for myself since I don't believe in god. He's talking about god helping him through things/believing in him & wants others to also I'm sure? For me I make it about someone important in my life that has gotten me through a lot & even though they aren't in my life anymore they made me who I am today. The lyrics can mean something else for non believers easily. And that's why I don't mind the lyrics to much to this album, because like I said. It can have several meanings depending on your view/beliefs.
The lyrics are amazing. the fact that he is still following the lord is amazing especially in the music industry that hes in ( post hardcore/ or whatever you want to call it..) I praise jesus and so does matty and the band..i loved them when they first came out and im so happy that this album is almost like a christian album in a way..he doesnt expect everyone to love the lyrics, He knows he might even lose fans, (god please help them and show them eternal love is real, through music and friends and family!)He writes his lyrics because god gave him talent and it should be used praising god..this band is just great. Thank the lord and thank you Memphis May Fire!
"For me I make it about someone important in my life that has gotten me through a lot & even though they aren't in my life anymore they made me who I am today." you shouldnt put anything in the place of the lord. he can fill emptyness. trust me.
Christian Gross
Please stop. It's Christians like you that give a bad name.. Don't tell me what to do. Someone who is there in front of me and & I know that's real & they was there for me when I needed someone. That's what I care about & filled my emptyness. Not believing in something. I liked the hollow more because I could relate & been through a lot of the same things with friends and ex fiance. The hollow will always be one of my favorites sound wise and lyric wise.
Evan Procaccini
Yeah that's all nice. But they also claim that god gave them their talent, which is implying unrealistic ideas. You don't discard someones own believes just because of your own 'god'... There are thousands of gods... Yours is not superior. You're not saying this, but the other guys did, which is wrong.
hahaha you can not construct sentences well.
1:55 I thoght they have Linkin Park Guest Vocal :D
to the love of my life picking em up when i fall and giving me strength to carry on
Best song on the album
Memphis may fire is my life Matty saved my life so get out all you dissers! All the songs from the hallow to the challenger to this one are awesome i love Memphis may fire!
I don't understand why everyone compares a band to their older music. If they sounded the same as their older music, people would complain that they sound too similar. Or if they sound completely different then "wtf chllngr was so mch bttr". I find this album to be somewhere in the middle, definitely has the MMF sound but enough change that it keeps me interested. I think this album is awesome, I can't be the only one...
You can't make EVERYONE happy with a new album, but the level of unhappiness with Unconditional, and like with Of Mice & Men's new album, it's fucking ridiculous. Change a little bit, no one is happy. Change a lot, no one is happy.
Completely agreed. This listener loves the album to death though.
i fall in love with this song
This is literally one of the masterpieces. You guys are so magnificent. Thanks for doing your work perfectly great.
i Loved this song!
Is this like a spiritual sequel to "The Burden Interlude"?
I can't help but be reminded of the end of that interlude from the way the beginning and end of this song sounds. One of my favorites from the album regardless.
Its different...but it hits home hard. Totally relate to this. good job.
this is beautiful
So perfect.
This song would make an excellent and emotional music video
This album couldn't be better. Good job MMF :)
Only MMF song I've really gotten into was "Miles Away", and this album is really giving me the same vibe as the rest of their music, except this album is less lyrically complex. I completely respect the people who hold these guys as their pride and joy, and I think they are amazingly talented, they're just not my cup of tea. I feel like they progress very little from album to album, and kind of stick to a "not broken don't fix it" mentality, and that's fine, but without evolution, this is a band that, in my opinion, just begins to become tiring. I do, however appreciate the use of orchestration on this album and the use of blended screams and power choruses.
adoro essa musicaaaaa s2
Es la mejor.
+Brian Mena uio
😀
E eu amo essa musica hehe! letra perfeita
amamos
My favorite song from this album
I love this album soooo much!!! They are going in a great direction as a band I think.
I'm really liking the second half of the album a lot more than the first half.
Amazing, just amazing
This song is my life
love
Love, love, love
lol i used to hate my brother's old rock songs .. now im love with his old playlist ..especially this song .
1:55 sounds so much like Kellin Quinn it tripped me out ! They have such similar vocal styles it's awesome
this song makes me cry every time :3
what a fucking amazing song, one of the best, if not the best song on the album. So much emotion its crazy.
I love their hardcore stuff but their softer album has me falling in love :')
Hey, I kinda like the direction they're goin in. It's very expressive, regardless of what people think it's about. I love bands like that.
I cannot wait to see them in Louisville... Maybe one day I will get to share the stage with them.
my favorite song in the whole world 💕
Favorite song off the record!
I love this album so much!!!!!
This song is beautiful!
This song hits me right in the feels. So fucking much. Come back to the UK soon. Please..
Lovely.
Honestly Matty Mullins is such a role model, love this album!
Cant help but think of her when i hear this.
bate uma Nostalgia. amo essa banda
Can you ''like'' for perfection? Cause I know I think this is.
nice song "Need To Be"
