Asking Alexandria Drop ‘Alone Again,’ Announce New Album ‘See What’s on the Inside’
Asking Alexandria are ready to kick off a new album cycle, revealing that their next studio album will be titled See What's on the Inside. It's carrying an Oct. 1 release date through their newly signed deal with Better Noise Music and you can get your first taste of the record today with the brand new single "Alone Again" (as heard below).
Danny Worsnop and the gang don't disappoint, delivering a raw and emotionally powerful rock anthem. The song was a collaborative effort, as designated by crediting all five members as co-writers on the track. The group will also soon deliver a lyric video to accompany the song that you can catch as well.
Guitarist Ben Bruce says, “‘Alone Again’ and the rest of this album is the result of us reconnecting and falling back in love with why we started this band in the first place. No frills or cheap tricks, just the five of us playing our instruments as hard and as loud as we can!"
He adds, "At some point in our lives, we all feel lost and confused as to who we are and who we want to be, and I think this song will really unite all of us in that sense. We are so excited to share, not only this new song with you all, but our new album. We went back to our roots as musicians and really wanted to reignite that passion and love for rock and metal music. Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Queen, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Aerosmith, AC/DC … all the greats that we fell in love with as kids have greatly influenced this new album and we couldn’t be more excited!” Take a look at the lyrics for "Alone Again" below.
Asking Alexandria, "Alone Again" Lyrics
Bring me hope
Take me home
I think I’m ready to be on my own
Close my eyes
Lay me down
I think it’s time that I take some time
To be alone againI’ve waited, been patient
Dedicated in the name of
Being more, giving all, that I have, but you want more
I’ve changed and I’m changing
It’s not over there’s still time left
It isn’t much, so make the most, I getting tired, of giving upSearching for silence
Bring me hope
Take me home
I think I’m ready to be on my own
Close my eyes
Lay me down
I think it’s time that I take some time
To be alone againI can’t find, my balance
I’ve been trying, so hard but
What I love, you seem to hate, and what I hate, you seem to love
I’m lost, It’s confusing
What point am I proving
I don’t know anymore what to do or who to beSearching for silence
Bring me hope
Take me home
I think I’m ready to be on my own
Close my eyes
Lay me down
I think it’s time that I take some time
To be alone againBring me hope
Take me home
I think I’m ready to be on my ownBring me hope
Take me home
I think I’m ready to be on my own
Close my eyes
Lay me down
I think it’s time that I take some time
To be alone again
