MERAHPUTIH.COM - GRUP rock asal Lancaster, Pennsylvania, From Ashes To New, kembali menghadirkan karya terbaru lewat single bertajuk Die For You. Lagu ini mengangkat kisah relasi yang sarat akan kontrol, hasrat, serta rasa bersalah. Di dalamnya tergambar kelelahan emosional seseorang yang terus memberi segalanya dalam hubungan, tapi tetap merasa tak pernah cukup.
Menurut Matt Brandyberry, lagu ini merefleksikan momen ketika seseorang mulai mempertanyakan batas pengorbanan hingga harus kehilangan jati diri demi orang lain. Sementara itu, vokalis Danny Case menuturkan Die For You menggambarkan usaha tanpa henti untuk membahagiakan pasangan, meski pada akhirnya semua yang dilakukan terasa tak pernah benar-benar memadai.

Berikut lirik lengkapnya:
Your sticks and stones may break my bones
But your words will make me wish that I was dead
I sold my soul, but I still owe
'Cause I always pay the price for your regrets
You keep filling me with holes
An emptiness that I call home
I would die for you
But it's the last time
All that I've done for you was never enough for you
Over and over, I'm not gonna die for you
Should I give up on you? Could we find something new?
Over and over, I'm not gonna die for you
Die for you
If I let go of all control
Will you make me pay in blood for all my debts
I should have known not to get this close
But I love to feel your hands around my neck
And now I try to hold my breath
With your knife inside my chest
So we can try to feel alive again
All that I've done for you was never enough for you
Over and over, I'm not gonna die for you
Should I give up on you? Could we find something new?
Over and over, I'm not gonna die for you
Die for you
(Die for you)
(Die for you)
(Die for you)
I know you said you wanna take time
But I've been hearing all the same lies
Now I'm running out of daylight
Are we ever gonna make it right? Yeah
Everything that I want, I can't control
Everything that you need, I never know
Is everything that we are just dead and gone?
You're everything I want
You're everything I need
You're everything I love
You're everything I bleed
All that I've done for you was never enough for you
Over and over, I'm not gonna die for you
Should I give up on you? Could we find something new?
Over and over, I'm not gonna die for you
Die for you
You're everything I want
You're everything I need
I'm not gonna die for you
Die for you
You're everything I want
You're everything I need
I'm not gonna die for you
Die for you.(far)
