The Word Alive have teamed up with The Noise to premiere the anthemic new song "Burning Your World Down." Listen below.
"Maybe I'm running from myself / But blaming someone else." "These are the first lyrics you'll hear from our brand new song, 'Burning Your World Down,' because it's time for all of us to take ownership for our thoughts and actions," says singer Telle Smith. "Have you ever felt like you were bending pieces of who you are to fit someone else's mold? We wanted to break the mold we feel we were forced to adhere to creatively." The band took a hard look at itself and considered a lot of things when crafting this compelling new material. The stormy sonic intensity of the song, which was produced by Erik Ron (I Prevail, Issues, Motionless In White, Godsmack), is matched by its lyrical heft. Smith continues, "'Who is The Word Alive?' We had to answer that question for ourselves before we made our new album, and we feel that this song is a great statement out of the gate. We are The Word Alive - and we just had to be ourselves for the first time ever. This song represents a breaking point. It's about taking things into your own hands, and letting the passion that ultimately flows within all of us to be released unapologetically. If you feel like you're not living up to who or what you know you're capable of being, this song can be your anthem. It will be ours."Listen to "Burning Your World Down" below.
