it happened all so fast heavy with sleep my eyes closed
the next thing i remember was crawling out from the car and
seeing you lying there
holding your head kissing you for the last time
the taste of blood on my lips
your clothes torn apart perfumed with gas
it seems like it was yesterday when the rain poured down
i can still hear your screams as if it was happening all over again
saturday, december 4th that night would become a grave
that would crush my heart
joy and laughter exchanged for grief and silence
searching for so long to find you and the moment
you were ripped from me
laying here on this empty shelf never to be read again
in these pages lie every memory of you
the wind blew your heart over my eyes and i slept for days
praying not to awake, but these dreams can only last so long
facing the day looking through these tears
i'll always look back and remember that night as you lay there
looking over that casket seeing your face times of past rushing by
touching your cold hand wishing it would touch me back
you look so pretty lying there just like the first day we met
it feels so real like old times but it's nothing, it's nothing
i can taste the stale air on my tongue and death lights up the sky
hope finds itself an end stopping at my thoughts
pictures of you help bring back the tears
walking in the present but living in the past
how much longer will i embrace sorrow?
from the moment you entered my life
my whole outlook on love would change
you brought out a happiness i didn't even know i had
and now you've gone leaving without a goodbye
that glass heart that rested in my chest has fallen and shattered
here on lord is the remains of a broken heart
for i have faith you can give me joy and life again
death has fallen but love covers me
heaven is now home to my angel of love

Review about Cries Of The Past Amazing | Reviewer: nnicole(: | 8/15/09
Wowwwww guys underoath is amazing with either vocalists, there lyrics are amazing and how can u say there new stuff is meaningless wow homo go look up the lyrics there beautiful and they sing about god u dumbfuck, okay well this song is amazing and the lyrics are awesome I love underoath fucking best band alive<333333333333
Okay "ronnie" this song is ridiculously amazing yes this is when they had there best times buty how can you possibly say wityh a strtaight face that there new stuff is meaningless and retarded junk. you obviously dont understand the things they believe in and the ways they follow. thaeir new cd is their breaking point of being a band and amazing musicians. so buddy..fuck you haha
Okay, I have a question, Yeah, how do you think this is a bad song, this is from a time when the band was actually good, there new stuff is meaning less its retarded junk, this has passion the new stuff does not.
the most emotional song i have ever hear. period. My favorite song ever. I know alot of people who think it would be better if it was like sung not screamed but the emotion of screaming. This is the most amazing deathcore song ever, mixing sadness with anger and defeat but still giving out love, joy and hope. Beautiful.

One of the best hardcore songs that exists, by far. Best album ive ever heard, Cries of the past.
i hate underoaths new stuff, and compared to the first two albums...
The new set up should rename themselves, with new mebers, and the whole different genre of music they now produce, they need a new band name.
I mean, the new underoath isnt so bad, but its changed genres. People who like the genre it is now would say it's good. But compared to the old deathcore (which was 100x better, for people who like deathcore) its changed completely.

its sad but this is mainly the reason he got kicked out of the band
cuz the only things he wrote about in all of their songs was this accident and they were no longer a christian band but a band about a car accident
thats why dallas got kicked out
theyre still on good terms though cuz underoath tours with dallases band maylene and the sons of disaster

If it is true, then it's really sad.. and I feel sorry for him. But if it isn't, it's still a really sad song! I love this song so much, either way. And if it is true, must take alot of guts to sing it at concerts. Alix. x
Great Song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/22/07
i like this song alot
prolly 1 of my fav underoath songs
i dont really like them much now
i still listen to em
but they were alot better when they were deathcore
still a sick band eatherway its just harder to headbang to
lol
of course it doesn't sound like the new underoath idiot
they have a new vocalist and they are more metalcore now.....
before it used to be deathcore.....
which was way better.
i love metal core
but it's just gay because i loved the old way they played...
their new shits gay now...
their lyrics aren't even the same..
