ETF Ungrateful

Whaddup :)) Just got a copy of Escape the Fate's latest record, Ungrateful. It was released last May 14, and you guys know me, I ALWAYS get a copy hours after it's released. 

UNGRATEFUL is also ETF's first album without bassist Max Green, and features his replacement TJ Bell, formerly bassist for Motionless In White.

I think it's really awesome. It's kind of a different material compared to This War Is Ours and their self-titled album. Craig Mabbitt certainly stepped up. :) Not to mention the new band logo hahaha. 

What are my favorite songs off the record?

LIVE FAST, DIE BEAUTIFUL (feat. Caleb Shomo of Attack! Attack!)
She flicks lit cigarettes,
Burning holes in her clothes
Just like some fucked up version of Marilyn Monroe.
Did daddy not love you? Did mommy not care enough?
There’s are a million stories, most are untrue
She’s says the name of my band is her next tattoo.

Live fast, die beautiful!

Turn and walk away, I know all your games,
Just give it up coz your time is over
Threw it all away just to make a name,
Girl you’re getting nowhere, trying to use my fame

She’s got those Hollywood dreams,
But these streets are tough,
She is the queen of obscene,
Everything is never enough
God you disgust me, with your sad pathetic ways,
I must be dreaming,
Coz everything I see here is fake

Live fast, die beautiful!

Turn and walk away, I know all your games,
Just give it up coz your time is over
Threw it all away just to make a name,
Girl you’re getting nowhere, trying to use my fame


YOU'RE INSANE

I’ll take you back to the beginning
I was awoken in screams
The day that I realized there was a devil in me

Who gives a fuck if I’m a sinner?
Can see by the flames you know I’m like
A little conception inside

We started broken hearted
Falling apart at the seams
Don’t blame me for your problems
You should fix yourself up before you’re gonna fix me

Stand back as your world decays I can’t explain why you’re falling apart
You need to find someone else to blame
For the hurt and the pain I’m not the reason that you’re insane

Feels like I’m living in a madhouse
With smoke and mirrors you see
The devil in me shivers
Every time that you breathe
We’re going mad
Go take your pills and get out
I don’t understand what the fuck you’re screaming about

We’re falling downwards spiral
Please just let me be released
Don’t blame me for your problems
You should save yourself up
Before you’re gonna save me

Stand back as your world decays I can’t explain why you’re falling apart
You need to find someone else to blame
For the hurt and the pain I’m not the reason that you’re insane
Yeah I know we’ve seen some better days
Now that explains why we’re falling apart
You need to find someone else to blame
For the hurt and the pain I’m not the reason that you’re insane

(So far these are all angst songs. The song I love the most off the record is this love song:)

PICTURE PERFECT
You lived your life like you were on fire
But how can I dance when your soul just lifted me higher and higher and higher
Paint bleeds, ink runs, image of your love
Your memory, our history
Why did you have to go?

I'd give up my eyes, to see you one last time
And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you
And I could paint you picture perfect even if I were blinded
You have to die for me to see how to live

I live my life hiding in shadows but now I can see
Coz your soul is lifting me higher and higher and higher
Painfully, I can't breathe, need you here with me
Close my eyes I can feel you close
Why did you have to go?

I'd give up my eyes to see you one last time
And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you
And I could paint you picture perfect even if I were blinded
You have to die for me to see how to live

Angels fall; it's not your fault
Time goes on without you
Goodbye old friend, we'll meet again
Life goes on without you
Why did you have to go?

I'd give up my eyes to see you one last time
And I'd give all my fingertips to touch you
And I could paint you picture perfect
Even if I were blinded
But you have to die for me to see how to live
