Song of the Day: Last Day Rising - Leave It All Behind

Last Day Rising is an actual rock band from LA whose 4 band members released one S/T EP back in 2015. This SOTD is very catchy & IU had the chance to communicate with one of the band members on social media right when this song was released. The lyrics below remind me of a person’s desperate cry to God for help to change from sin & their need for YHWH’s help. Very encouraging at least to me. I’ve fallen apart I’m out of control and I wonder How I lost my mind Feel all of my scars From battles forgotten I am falling down I’ve been here once or twice Or maybe a thousand times before I’m tired of all your lies It’s time to set on fire What’s left of this wasted life And let the fire burn bright I’m no longer blind I’ll open up my eyes and see the light And let it take me away I’m not gonna wait until tomorrow I can leave it all behind And this time around I’m hoping I’m not too far gone Cause I’m barely holding on Buried into the ground Trying to escape the Thoughts that hold me down I’ve come to realize There’s nothing left for me Here to carry on And I’m tired of all your lies It’s time to set on fire What’s left of this wasted life And let the fire burn bright I’m no longer blind I’ll open up my eyes and see the light And let it take me away I’m not gonna wait until tomorrow I can leave it all behind Continued →
