ROOM 138 // LYRICS
On my back, breathing heavy staring at the light
Praying this isn't the end, but pretty sure it might be
On my back, got my heart beating out of my chest
I never thought, I can’t believe that I'd go out like this
So these are the walls that have to hold this moment
I never expected to be here again
My vision is blurring as the light starts fade
Please pull me out of this
My ribs are breaking I swear, I'm only twenty three
Crawling, searching for a lifeline I just can't reach
Somebody hear me, someone open up the door
Get me up off of this floor and stop the shaking
The blood is boiling in my veins
Oh god the pain, it's unrelenting
I'm ready for the end if it means that all of this will end
So these are the walls that have to hold this moment
I never expected to be here again
My vision is blurring as the light starts fade
Please pull me out of this
Through the haze I saw a face
A second chance, another life to live, how did you forgive me
Held my head against your chest, told me everything's alright, don't be afraid
Close your eyes and rest
So these are the walls that have to hold this moment
I never expected to be here again
My vision is blurring as the light starts fade
Please pull me out of this

Also Ben Bruce said that this song was wrote about Danny almost dying in room 138 of a hotel they were staying in. It was during the time they were recording the FDTD album
this is the most powerful song asking alexandria has ever written, honestly.
I don't think I've ever heard an asking song charged with this much emotion before
This song does have a lot of emotion, but Killing You has a lot more imo
Hands down as a recovering addict of a year and half clean two overdoses a lost fiance later this song brings me to my knees... I love this band ive been In room 138 for 6 long years but no more
..
@@clintbeasthood9758 or moving on, to the stage... Etc
@@TTatham congrats man 🙏
Have you ever heard a single moment of sincerity?
The truth behind these lyrics are so deep and depressing. Good thing danny is still here
It's about when he overdosed after Mitch died and he called his ex cos it's the only number he remembered right? He was convulsing on the floor and shit. really sad.
Yeah, rip Mitch 😭
@@dragonpup1 is Mitch actually the reason why? Most articles don’t even mention that part
probably not
@@DanailGeorgiev ???
After reading the comments I've just learned this song is about Danny's overdose. Reading these lyrics while listening to this have brought me to tears. What a real and raw song. Thank you God for Danny. He is truly a blessing to this world.
Not the Amercian Average is a song that you might like 👍
IF YOU CAN'T RIDE TWO ALBUMS AT ONCE...
SecondLess it does sound like that at first lol
Yeah, I knew I recognized that melody. That was my favorite track off that old album. Was a nice callback I think. I love when bands reference their earlier work and give perspective on what's changed anf what's stayed the same.
ikr :P
I LITERALLY NOTICED THIS TOO
I'm glad I wasn't imagining it
This AA album has the most heart and soul put into it. All the regret and pain over the years really makes these songs hit places they never did with previous AA albums. This album is what it means to grow as a band and grow as people. Everyone feels pain and suffering, but only the strong can come back from them and use it as a catalyst to make themselves stronger. Keep up the good work guys, stay strong.
I'm glad there is still intelligent people in this world that can appreciate a powerful and heartfelt song.
I can't get past how beautiful the entire story on this album is. I'm so happy Danny is back!!
this song is sad af tho
This song has saved me from some of the most darker times, including my own suic*dal thoughts, thank you Danny for being so pure and raw in your words, the whole point of asking alexandria was to have someone to relate to as we all relate to people, so I hope for those still struggling, you can relate and make a better life for yourself, keep your heads up you bunch of amazing people, you've got this ❤
This comment is about 4-5 years late on my part, but this song is literally a dream come true. Not only is it just a great and powerful song, but year before an old friend of mine and I were talking about how the ending of "If You Can't Ride Two Horses...." could be it own song and we wished it had been. How lucky I feel for it to essentially become one. When does that ever happen?
The meaning of this song is so emotional! You can hear the pain in his voice
Wtf were people expecting... bands Will eventually start to make music that they feel is right, not the fans. I love what they’re doing! keep up the good work 🤘🏽
slothwizard 45 do you still love what they’re doing? Cuz this new album in 2020 isn’t good.
@@justinhemmah7008 did you listen to their new album.
@@flowerfloc their 2 newest ones are shit. This self titled one is their last good one in my opinion
@@justinhemmah7008 in your opinion. In the opinion of actual smart people, and the band, these new albums are on the next, better level. They are much happier, much better, much closer together. Go and read the lyrics of Find Myself and try to dive into them. As Danny said "What will it take? How many times do I have to break before you get it ? I don't wanna be what you remember, It's my sanity and hapiness, it's not fucking about you"
@@shiroxo6423 if you had any semblance of opinions and what not, music is subjective. Me and a lot of other people agree the 2 newest albums are shit while you and others and the band think other wise. I never once was saying Danny needs to make heavy music for him to be happy, I was just stating me and others opinions in the albums
I demand a music video for this song.
On my back, breathing heavy staring at the light
Praying this isn't the end, but pretty sure it might be
On my back, got my heart beating out of my chest
I never thought, I can’t believe that I'd go out like this

Probably my favorite song from them on this album, with respect to the range of Danny's vocals/sound as a whole!!! LOVING THIS ALBUM!!!
First time I've listened to this, I literally couldn't stop crying, the interpretation is so powerful. Just amazing how a voice can convey such emotions
When that chorus hits, I almost cried because it’s emotional and raw ❤️ I’m so happy Danny is back!!!
If you can't ride 138 horses at once
lolololololol
"I never expected to be here alone". You fucking geniuses you! I just lost my shit to this song. Amazing!
Its actually again*
@@favianmendoza1386 No, what they say makes sense and I'm so glad they also realized it. If you go to "If You Can't Ride Two Horses At Once... You Should Get Out Of The Circus", you'll see the lyrics "I never expected to be here alone" in the final stanza. For the chorus here, I always believed you could subtitute it with that final stanza.
So I've given this album multiple listens. I wasn't sure at first, but this hands down is my favorite Asking album
Hands down my favorite song on the album. I'm glad Asking Alexandria are still killing it.
Love the throw back to SUAS
Antonypacman I NEVER EXPECTED TO BE HERE!!!
I knew it was! but what song was it??
TWEEK0423 I think it’s near the end of If you can’t ride two horses at once you should get out of the circus
This song is my favorite on album. It has a good combination of old and new asking alexandria. Honestly if the whole album had this vibe I think some of the fans that were disappointed with this album wouldn't be. But hey, you can't make everyone happy. They made me happy though!
Antonypacman where?
This song is amazing, powerful story, and I love how they’ve brought back a similar chorus like the clean part of «if you can’t ride two horses»
Not a lot of music gives me chills any more, but this song does and so do some of the other songs on this album. This is seriously one of the best albums I've heard in a while and I'm constantly listening to new music.
and this is the best song of this album. you can feel the pain in the vocals and the lyrics.. This album have great lyrics!!
If You Can't Ride Two Horses At Once...Then You Should Get Out Of The Circus
破裂の人形 miss that shit!!!!
th-cam.com/video/eNImtWjlGdA/w-d-xo.html
Your welcome!!
Right it reminded me of that song
because they did it on purpose. did you check the interview with ben ? I think it was a track by track explanation
From Autumn To Ashes where can i find it
Damn😥 i feel the emotion in this album
James Cruz He's dictating his own overdose in this one. No way it wouldn't be hard hitting
You can hear the pain in his voice. This album is a real treasure in my opinion. Sure it doesn't sound like SUAS or R&R but it's still Asking at its core. Great job boys excited to see the new material live.
I'm a fairly new AA fan and listening to this song brought me to tears knowing the meaning behind it and the lyrics. Beautiful song!
Soooooo good. I FUCKEN MISSED YOU DANNY
Samuel Lingard yesssss
This is perfect!
This record just shows how talented Danny is! Each song is so different from one another
I'm grateful Danny got over his addiction. we don't need to lose another legend. such a powerful song.
Mano como eu amo essa banda 💜
Really digging this album
austinjreed1993 if people realized what happend to damny they would understand
He lost his child

My fav on this album for sure. It's about Danny of course. I love the ending. Such a beautiful song. AA Family Forever.
Minha favorita do álbum ❤
ME ENCANTA! I LOVE IT! 😍💕
One of my favorites from the new album! Waiting on my vinyl can’t wait
This song is really deep well the whole album is deep and I love it alot. Good job guys
Favorite song in the album
one of my favorites from the album ⚡️
chills everytime i listen to this
I just downloaded this album on Apple Music and it kicks ass. Danny so happy 😃 to have you back as lead vocals. Asking Alexandria wasn’t the same without you 😘
Asking Alexandria with Room 138 and Bullet For My Valentine with Room 409. I think British rockstars need to stay away from these hotels mates 😂
🤣
I know this is about Danny's overdose, but the lyrics also remind me of an anxiety attack I once had. Powerful song.
Damn, this song almost makes me cry! Danny!! You are one of the best!
I know someone has probably already mentioned this, but I find it so cool that the vocal melody that begins at 0:30 is basically the same thing, but faster, as the part that begins at 2:43 in the song "If you can't ride two horses at once..." I wonder if it was intentional.
I love it so much!❤
Dennis could of never produced something as powerful as this.
you meant to say "as shitty as this"
Lol what dont you like about this song?
The Unkindled Yes opinions vary. so don't take it personal. buddy.
Chris Chaquay Forgive my drunk comment... lol
The Unkindled lol
Gosh.. No matter how many times I listen to this song, I still get goosebumps and my heart legit hurts, the song is so emotional and you can really hear the emotions in his voice.. 😱
I still love it though and keep listening to it more ❤😍
Every song on this album is just awesome
Todo el álbum me encanta 💙 AA va por un buen camino, esta evolución de la banda está de maravilla 💙 orgulloso de escucharlos desde hace casi 9 años 💙
0:30 (Whoa!) So now this is over and the world falls upon me.
(Whoa!) I never expected to be here alone.
(Whoa!) The shadows are forming as we burst into flames.
(Whoa!) Why does this end this way?
Daniel Brooke yeah but now he is asking god for help
actually, this is the story of the time he overdosed and an ex came to save him
Victor Ribeiro how do you know? where's your P.E.E.L evidence
www.altpress.com/features/entry/asking_alexandria_self_titled_track_by_track
There's your evidence
Thanks for this amazing read
One of my top 3 fav songs off this album
This connects with me on a deeper level I'm literally crying right now 😔😍
BEST SONG
Personally I think this song is very close to a masterpiece... the way the lyrics are constructed are very clever and poignant. What I have noticed and would be good to get people's feedback is - I think they Danny has song the song exactly how was feeling when he had his overdose! If you notice the way the lyrics are song through the verses get angry, scared and end at plain desperation! And then mellow out once his saviour enters the room and the second part of that verse is then sung in anger at himself. Please feel free to comment as I have noticed this and not seen a comment a long this of thought with the composition of the lyrics.
Exactly right, it's about his overdose on a hotel room, number 138
Lol what is a masterpiece? Def not this. Fun to listen to but hell no. Youre comparing an AA song to the Mona Lisa? Fuck off idiot. Way to exaggerate.
Yup, I am in love with this album.
Its crazy how much meaning these songs have.
After the drop of their latest album you seriously realize that this was an amazing album
It’s what separates good bands from the best. People hated them, same as being me the horizon, and every time a new album comes out people say the last album was the best. They’re all circumstantial, I hated most of this album in 2017; I’ve only just put the vinyl I bought years ago on to listen start to finish and I love it
@@Star.Chaser 3 Years later and i still come back to some of these bangers lmao
*Warning: Wall of text*
So, since this is the last song, instead of using my brain and not writing my comment I am gonna give my opinion. Yeah opinions are a thing in this world, but this is 2017 and people forget about that. So, 2 things.
First of all, this album is just like Danny said. Breaks every rule in the book. A new face of AA. Listening to it, it was great. Didn't feel much old AA, but still loved it. There was however one thing I hated a lot.
The comments. Most people with a brain didn't write comments, as it is more or less pointless, and I realize I should not be writing one too but I like to live dangerously... and brainlessly.
Anyway, point is, *most* people (disclaimer: not all) either say they hate it and that AA sucks now, or that they love it. And then they respond to a comment of different opinion with vulgarism and start fighting. *Seriously?* If you hate it, either write a comment that says why without being overly rude to people of different opinions or AA (since thay can make whatever music they want) or do not comment at all. And if you love it and then respond to a hate comment (or worse, just a comment that might be saying they don't like it without being rude) by calling the author an emo kid, and some more vulgarism, you should not respond as well, since that doesn't make you any better.
J S THIS!!! I love the album but I also can understand why someone might not. Doesn't mean they need to be insulted for liking/disliling something or having a different opinion 😄
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Bruh this album was a beast. They broke through the walls without selling out in any way. They did a great fucking job
Cailon Delano
I may or may not have replayed it at least twice every day since its release.
Well said man
Absolutely love this song
We missed you Danny we will ALL be here for the band especially YOU
parte 0:30, esa batería por dios, realmente me encanta Asking Alexandria UWU
This is some deep shit. If t-swift can win an award for boyfriend drama and this can't, then props to you for staying in this industry.
That chorus is so satisfying!!
I'm always backing here ❤️❤️
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh porfin
Eu amo esse vocal cara!!!! ❤
esse gordo maravilhoso
Lisboa H1Z1 curte minha banda mano 😃 th-cam.com/video/mZGcDGdRHsw/w-d-xo.html
Matheus Felipy só tu?
Esse cd tá fora de mais!
Não sei pq mas pra mim parece que é o Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) cantando kkkkk
Easily the best song on the album, well done AA 😍
I love it.
I know you get this a lot, but you guys are my favorite band and I cried seeing Danny perform after one year being out of my band(dec. 4th,2017) I support AA so yes I listened to the black, but, I've listen to Danny's solo and his band We are harlot! so if you havent please fans, check it out! I just wanted to note how dedicated to their fans and family AA really is. From Ben starting Serpent co that sadly didnt have the alien shirt I had hoped to buy for my best friends B day to the blossom of Danny's Solo Career, you guys are the led zepplelin of the 2000s and I am going to get a tatttooo from the someone somwhere Lyrics. Ty always, forever my favorite band

Si no está la bizca no está chido :C
Buen esfuerzo de los chicos sigo amando esta banda ♡
Love this!
Melhor musica nessa porra
Fuck yeah the Cowboy King 👑 Is back!
I wish the whole album would sound like this song. That's what you call a mature sound. Inspired by old style but still fresh.
This whole album blows my mind 😯
I can't be the only one but this song reminds me of if you can't ride two horses at once you should get out of the circus
Logan with lightsabers It's intentional
Logan with lightsabers it also sounds a bit like prophecy
0:30 the exact lyrics are from that song
Lol they're similiar but not exactly the same
guys... these comments about simiilar to this song are everywhere and they even did 2 track by tracks interviews with ben and danny and ben even admitted it. it was on purpose.
Asking Alexandria have always meant so much to me up until the point where Danny left. Dannys emotion (especially in From Death To Destiny) got me through each every day back in my "teen" years. I was heartbroken when he left, tried to give Dennis a chance but I just couldn't bring myself to like it. I've lost track of them until Danny joined back in and honestly, I am crying right now.
Their style changed but goddamn it, Danny can and IS showing his full potential as the extremely talented and gifted singer he is. I am so glad he is still alive, not only because this album is another fucking masterpiece but also, because he can continue to inspire people, can continue to REACH people.
I am just a puddle of feels right now... Ugh.
My fav song on this album.
Love the If You Can't Ride Two Horses at Once... You Should Get Out of the Circus reference ❤🏇🏻
br vendo álbum lançando as 3 da manha
eu consegui via torrent as 22h da noite hehehe...
Muito foda, fica no top 3 de album do Asking com certeza
So to vendo agora '-'
2:27 - The best part of all album
And it reminds me bmth a little)
I love Asking Alexandria
What a beautiful album.
Just finished the album on Spotify, and honestly I forgot that I was even listening to Asking Alexandria. Not a bad album at all. I honestly like it, but if it was one of Danny's side project, then I feel like it would be more fitting? The Black felt more like AA, even though it was a soft version of AA. Idk, this album just feels very out of place in my opinion. Not a bad album, it's honestly pretty good, even though I thought I was listening to a different band this whole time. Opinions on it?
Kazma agreed ! Also they got matt good producing instead of usually joey sturgis! Both great but can also explain alot of element changes?
I feel the same way. I wish they hadn't released into the fire and where did it go, because those are by far the two strongest track on the album imo. I should love the whole album, but I just don't because it doesn't sound nearly as creative as any of the other albums besides the black. From death to destiny is my fav and I was hoping this would be more like that I guess.
Kazma the black was written good but wasn't AA style because of how Denis did it.
That was exactly the plan. To not sound like the things they have done before. Danny explained it. They threw the rule book out the window.
yeah exactly. Idk why ppl telling their opinion if they don't know literally anything about the meanings and stuff. Even if somebody write a 'I don't like it' comment in a "positive" way it's really dumb tho. Just don't do that. I'm not writing comments just in case I make sure I know EVERYTHING about that.
Well, I wont be able to beat my kids to this anymore...but I still like it, great production quality!
OMG so good!!
So many vibes.
Some parts (next to the intro and in the chorus) sound like the end of "If You Can't Ride Two Horses At Once, You Should Get Out Of The Circus", or am I wrong?
Santiago López you’re correct. It’s an homage to their first album. Sick, right?
Adam Rose thank you, I didn't know that. The song it's fine but... Idk, it's strange hahahaha
Santiago López Actually, every single song on this album reminds me of another song, I can't pinpoint any of them, but I feel like I've heard these songs before (by another artist, different lyrics and all though)
It could be that I just love the album so much that it feels like I've heard it before ahahah
Lucia Hojski it sounds like BMTH
I hear If You Can't Ride Two Horses At Once...Then You Should Get Out Of The Circus
Zach Sullivan yes! Danny mentioned the outro to if you can’t ride two horses was in this song!
"I never expected to be here again" is a reference to "I never expected to be here alone" from that song.
After hearing this would be in there figured it would be more apparent than it was. I was actually expecting it to be Bens voice doing the “woooah OHHHH OOOH Oooh” at the end
I didn't expect it, especially because room 138 doesn't even mention a girl like in the other one
Zach Sullivan in room he says he sees a face and someone forgives him before the last chorus... That might be the connection with the girl in Two horses
Masterpiece.
Guys you are amazing
This is fucking beautiful !!! Asking is back!
This MIGHT have been covered...
Nik Nocturnal oh, hi there
if you cant ride to horses... from their first album
No. This was about him Ovetdosing and his ex gf came back to save him
Nik Nocturnal too bad it sucks bro 😂😂
what sucks? the song or the cover?
This is the best song off the entire AALP5, don't even try to convince me otherwise
Anthony what means "LP5"
can't stop listening to this song, hell every time i listen to this i cry
