Ain't Love Grand Lyrics

It's so hard to see when your eyes are rolling
In the back of your head
It's even harder to speak when everything you say
Just comes out wrong

Gutted like a pig, all you want is the world to bleed
Someone somewhere stole your desire
The pain akin', to being punched in the throat
And stabbed in the chest

You would rather bleed than be without her
Gone are the tender whispers dancing in your ears
Replaced with lackluster memories you cry
Your screams play in your empty room

It's so hard to see when your eyes are rolling
In the back of your head
It's even harder to speak when everything you say
Just comes out wrong

Your bed swallows you whole as the days bleed together
Torment on the lips of a loved one
And if you try hard enough, you can almost taste her
Feel her pass and scream, oh God why me

You would rather bleed than be without her
Gone are the tender whispers dancing in your ears
Replaced with lackluster memories you cry
Your screams play in your empty room

It's so hard to see when your eyes are rolling
In the back of your head
It's even harder to speak when everything you say
Just comes out wrong

Ain't Love Grand

Atreyu frontman Alex Varkatzas wrote this song after seeing one of his very good friends go through a devastating break up. He wanted to show his friend that they had been through the same things.

So Others May Live Song Chart

This was the first song released by Atreyu after a three-year hiatus. It was made available on their official website free of charge in exchange for signing up to the band's mailing list.

The song was inspired by one of vocalist Alex Varkatzas's best friends who used to serve in the armed forces. "The things our troops go through to protect us are pretty unreal," said the frontman. "Their treatment after leaves a lot to be desired, as well."

"The song honors them and condemns our government's constant deployment of these brave souls," Varkatzas continued. "The people who fight and die for us often come from a certain socio-economic background — the working class. The people making these decisions send our nation's children to war come from positions of privilege and wealth. Their kids aren't the ones getting deployed and they aren't risking their lives every day at work. Yet they order the working class to go 'keep us safe' at the drop of a hat, it feels like. It's bulls--t. It's the politicians and the rich of this country waging war to keep the majority preoccupied, so they can make money and advance their bulls–t political agendas. The expense is 'expendable' working class/poor Americans' lives, never the rich."
