[Intro: Choral]
S-P-I-R-I-T, spirit
Let's hear it!
S-P-I-R-I-T, spirit
Let's hear it!
Let's go!

[Verse 1: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
I've had enough
There's a voice in my head says I'm better off dead
But if I sing along a little fucking louder
To a happy song, I'll be alright

[Verse 2: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
You want to give up
Gave it all that you've got and it still doesn't cut
But if you sing along a little fucking louder
To a happy song, you'll be just fine 'cause

[Chorus: Choral & Oli Sykes]
Every now and again we get the feeling
Sing it!
And the great big void inside us opens up
And I really wish that you could help
But my head is like a carousel
And I'm going 'round in circles
I'm going 'round in circles

[Bridge: Choral & Oli Sykes]
S-P-I-R-I-T, spirit
Let's hear it!
Yeah, let's fuck up!
S-P-I-R-I-T, spirit
Let's hear it!

[Verse 3: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
We are possessed
We're all fucked in the head, alone and depressed
But if we sing along a little fucking louder
To a happy song, maybe we'll forget 'cause

[Chorus: Choral & Oli Sykes]
Every now and again we get the feeling
I can't hear you!
And the great big void inside us opens up
And I really wish that you could help
But my head is like a carousel
And I'm going 'round in circles
I'm going 'round in circles
Don't wake us up
We’d rather just keep dreaming
'Cause the nightmares in our heads are bad enough
And I really wish that you could help
But my head is like a carousel
And I'm going 'round in circles
I'm going 'round in circles

[Verse 4: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
The world has coalesced
Into one giant mess of hate and unrest
So let's all sing along a little goddamn louder
To a happy song and pretend it's all okay
Let's go!

[Breakdown: Oli Sykes]
So let's sing along
Let's sing along
A little fucking louder!
A little fucking louder!
Well don't you feel so much better

[Outro: Choral & Oli Sykes]
S-P-I-R-I-T, spirit
Let's hear it!
(Well that's the spirit)
S-P-I-R-I-T, spirit
Let's hear it!
(Yeah, that's the spirit)

Bring Me The Horizon are a British alternative rock band from Sheffield, Yorkshire—often stylised as simply “BMTH” or shortened to “Bring Me.” Formed in 2003, the group currently consists of lead vocalist Oliver “Oli” Sykes, lead guitarist Lee Malia, bassist Matt Kean, drummer Matt Nicholls, and keyboardist Jordan Fish.

The name of the band was taken from Captain Jack Sparrow’s line in the first Pirates of the Caribbean which he “Bring me that horizon.” Oli stated in an interview with Spin how the name connects with his vision of the

Right at the end of the film—it might even be the very last line—Johnny Depp says, “Bring me that horizon.” That was really inspiring. I was still living with my parents in Sheffield, England, when the movie came out [in 2003]. For me and the band, playing music was always wrapped up with the idea of touring and traveling and seeing the rest of England and the rest of the world. We never thought doing that was possible, but that’s what we wanted to do. So that quote sort of stands in for our feeling of wanting to see what the planet had to offer.
