Top Ten Best Atreyu Songs

This has to be the best Atreyu song ever. It's very easy to play, and the lyrics are awesome. It marks all the checkboxes on my list for a great song.
Yeah, this is definitely one of my number one songs while drinking. The fast-paced beat gets the blood pumping.

Awesome song, great singing, and great screaming. Just a perfect song!
Wow. Absolutely amazing song. Awesome verses lead to an epic, gripping chorus. The best.
Best song off Atreyu's only good album. Great song.

As a drummer, I love the little kick drum blasts and triplets along with the other subtle fills in the song. The breakdown in the middle is a great changeup to a well-sung and well-played song. Definitely in my top 3.
The guitar riffs before and during the chorus drive me crazy.

Greatest Atreyu song hands down. Madden 2005 baby. Didn't even know Atreyu back then and loved the song. Now that I know Atreyu, I love it even more. Glad to see it's in the top ten. Now to get Untitled Finale up here...
Although it has some awesome screaming, it's got other components that balance it out. It has melody, awesome drum and guitar riffs, and the chorus is super catchy. I love this song.
Atreyu is my rock band of choice. I like their songs a lot. I'm a fan, and this song is their best in my opinion.

The first song I ever heard by Atreyu. The best song that they made in my opinion. This should be in the top ten.
Wow... this is the song that should be on the top. At least top 5. It has everything that a song should have.

This song is just simply epic. There isn't much more you can say. Even if it's not number one worthy, it should definitely be top 10. I mean, Underworld Evolution + Atreyu is godly! Listen to it!
First song I ever heard by them. It should be towards the top of the list. Everyone should listen to this song. It is awesome!

For one thing, it's the #1 Atreyu song on iTunes. For another, I have spent 31 hours and 27 minutes listening to this song throughout the past year. That play count register is telling me 629 for a reason. It's easily one of their best non-screamo songs.
I think this was the first Atreyu song I heard 14 years ago, and I fell in love with them and have been a fan since. I'm a sucker for a strong 12/8 beat song, and the vocal harmonies and melody of the song are top-notch.
Bleeding Mascara is not as good. Falling Down is way better.

This is just the best song ever. Just listen to it, and you can feel how you get relaxed. If you love real metal with awesome instruments, it's a song for you, my friend!
Amazing song! The lyrics, the screaming... you can feel this song in your soul! "So crimson and red! I feel it flowing from your lips."
This is almost a perfect song with natural flowing music. I always listen to this song.

I understand that Atreyu fans have varying opinions on different songs, but why are songs like A Song for the Optimists at the bottom, and something like Living Each Day towards the top? This list makes no sense! Blow at 13? Blow is one of the greatest songs they've ever written and one of the best off Lead Sails Paper Anchor along with Becoming the Bull, Doomsday, When Two Are One, and Slow Burn.
Great throwback to '80s metal, complete with cowbell, guitar solos, and amazing vocals by Brandon!
As much as I enjoy this song, I also don't, simply because it isn't heavy enough. I really don't like the "scream" at the end of the song. The chorus, though, is truly amazing. With words like that, it is obvious that this song was meant to be a large middle finger to the rest of the world. This song should easily be at least #7.

They all tie for first: Ex's and Oh's, The Crimson, WTAO, Lip Gloss and Black, and Gallows being the most favorable to me. Godspeed to all your opinions. You can't go wrong with Atreyu.
A lot of Atreyu's songs are simply incredible, but I feel this one is getting a worse rep than it should, even though it's 6.
A little bit disappointed.
This is Atreyu's best work. Some obviously don't agree, and that's fine. But seriously, this song shows what Atreyu is made of. If you haven't heard this song, by all means, get onto it right away. You won't be sorry.
The Newcomers




Best song by Atreyu, hands down!
This song is the reason I love Atreyu. The best song ever by a metalcore band! Atreyu m/

I can't believe it's this far down on the list! This should either be right above or right below Bleeding Mascara in my opinion. An amazing and beautiful song about what it truly means to love someone. The riffs, piano, lyrics, and the emotion... just great.
Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses rocks, and so does this song.

How can this be 16th? This has been number one on my top 25 most played for years!
I'll admit that it may be a hard song to come across, but if you truly love this music, then dear God, please give your ears this melody.
Nobody knows about this song, but it's easily one of the best metalcore/post-hardcore tracks of the decade.

I've loved this song ever since I played it on Guitar Hero.

Powerful song with the O.G. Atreyu sound.

Awesome song! I'd like to ask the first commenter in what way is this song popish? Screaming, hard guitar, heavy vocals - what else do you need from rock?
Absolutely mind-blowing. A little bit popish, but still it's my favorite.


How is this not even in the top ten!? I have never heard a song like this, and I could listen to it all day. I have suggested this song to many others, and they loved it just as much as I did. This song deserves to be number one!
How is this not in the top ten? This is definitely one of their best songs, and it's one of the best ballads I've ever heard, maybe even the best ballad I've heard.
Something about this song just makes you want to listen to it over and over again. First song I heard by them and definitely my favorite!


A ballad from a group not known for them, and this one's one of the best ballads I've ever heard. Lyrically and musically powerful, this song really hits me hard and brings out strong emotions.
This song is really great. The voice, the riffs, the music - oh, awesome! It should be in the top 10. Atreyu forever.
Come on, 20th? This is one of their unique songs. It deserves to be in the top 5.

Incredible song. Old-school Atreyu was amazing. Everyone who is listing all Lead Sails Paper Anchor songs doesn't know anything about Atreyu.
The Crimson, Untitled Finale, You Eclipsed by Me, Creature, We Stand Up - all their older stuff kicks ass.
This probably isn't up higher because not a lot of people have listened to it. But this song is incredible, so please make it one of your new favorites! This song has one of the best compositions Atreyu has put together.

What about this song, guys? Wake up!
Restless, facing shadows, voices chasing, gallows pole. Are you afraid of who we are?
By far my favorite. The chorus has helped me through a lot.


The opening to this song gets me every time. So good!
