Guts Lyrics
Shooting for the stars
Desperately reaching for something in the dark
Pictures of memories buried in my heart
Lie awake and dream of the endless possibilities
Catch my breath and go forward
Take apart
Everything that's holding me down
Make a point
To pick a new direction
To make a new connection
Is this what it feels like
Finding out that I've got the guts to say anything?
Feels like breaking out
When I can give up my reputation
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything
Bold enough to fall flat on my face
When I walk as they crawl
Slowing down is just a waste of time to let go
Tapping my fingers to the rhythm of a metronome
Counting opportunities
Take apart
A gravity that's holding me down
Make a point
To find a resolution
To be my own solution
Is this what it feels like
Finding out that I've got the guts to say anything?
Feels like breaking out
When I can give up my reputation
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything
Let me go down
Let me go, let me go down alone
Let me go down
Just let me go down
If I'm gonna go down
Then just let me go
Let me go down, let me go down
Just let me go
Let me go
It feels like
Finding out that I've got the guts to say anything
Feels like breaking out
When I can give up my reputation
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything
Desperately reaching for something in the dark
Pictures of memories buried in my heart
Lie awake and dream of the endless possibilities
Catch my breath and go forward
Everything that's holding me down
Make a point
To pick a new direction
To make a new connection
Finding out that I've got the guts to say anything?
Feels like breaking out
When I can give up my reputation
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything
When I walk as they crawl
Slowing down is just a waste of time to let go
Tapping my fingers to the rhythm of a metronome
Counting opportunities
A gravity that's holding me down
Make a point
To find a resolution
To be my own solution
Finding out that I've got the guts to say anything?
Feels like breaking out
When I can give up my reputation
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything
Let me go, let me go down alone
Let me go down
Just let me go down
If I'm gonna go down
Then just let me go
Let me go down, let me go down
Just let me go
Let me go
Finding out that I've got the guts to say anything
Feels like breaking out
When I can give up my reputation
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything
Finally I can see
Honestly, I've got the guts to say anything

He used to think about the possibilities of what would happen if he said what he felt but now he wants to give up keeping all his feelings inside and let them all out. When he finally does, he feels relieved that he finally has the guts to say what he's been dying to say and that he can stop worrying about those 'possibilities' he used to wonder about.
To find the resolution * To be my own solution
I think this song is about a person finally getting the guts to tell somebody their true feelings
I read an interview with Alex and Jack they talked about this song. They both said (in one way or another) that the song was them finding out that it was there music and they could make it how ever they wanted. Basically it's about them realizing they don't have to please anyone and they can say what the want. The line "LET ME GO DOWN ALONE" (I think) refers to them writing songs/lyrics that could be considered controversial and they'll take the fall for it, they want the credit. Good or bad.
