Love was still around


Alive!

And right before your eyes
It's easy to think twice
A choice can change your life

Angry fists, angry eyes
Thought you'd take them by surprise
And unleash all your demons upon them
With your guns and your knives
Left them fighting to survive
You're the villain but you played the victim

Never took no advice
Did you ever realize
That your violence had taken your virtue
Well you can't wash away
The mistakes of yesterday
When the boys wearing blue come to greet you

And I can hear the sirens still calling your name
And I can see the ashes rise up from the flames
When love was still around
When love was still around
One day before it all came crashing down

Did you stop and regretà
When the voice inside your head
Got so quiet that you'd hear a pin drop
Did you still like the view
When their guns were aimed at you?
Screaming "Out of the house with your hands up!"

Now you wait in the line
For the prison bell to chime
Singing "I fought the law but the law won"
When you're done serving time
You can look them in the eyes
While you count all the live that you've broken

And I can hear the sirens still calling your name
And I can see the ashes rise up from the flames
When love was still around
When love was still around
One day before it all came crashing down

And I can see the flashing lights take you away
And now the tears are rolling down your mother's face
When love was still around
When love was still around
One day before it all came crashing down

When love was still around
When love was still around
One day before it all came crashing down

When love was still around
When love was still around
Some day you'll see the life that you turned down

Alive!
And right before your eyes
It's easy to think twice
A choice can change your life

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Billy Talent is a Canadian rock band formed in 1993 under the original name Pezz. The members, who knew each other since high school, recorded some demos before their official debut album in 1998. Their first album, titled *Watoosh!*, was independently released and achieved moderate local success but failed to gain national recognition. In 2003, the band changed its name to Billy Talent and released their self-titled album, which marked a turning point for them. With subsequent albums like *Up Against the Wall* (2006) and *Billy Talent III* (2009), they gained an international following, becoming one of Canada's most prominent rock bands. Their songs are characterized by energetic riffs, introspective lyrics, and a strong punk-rock influence. Some of their most representative tracks include "Red Flag", "Devil on My Shoulder" and "Fallen Leaves".
