When I woke up this morning
I felt the earth shake
Just another casualty
Living in mayhem
I'm checking out
Living in mayhem
And there's no way out
Haywire
This time bomb will detonate
Running out
This clock won't stop ticking away
Heavy weight
Drawing my breath in deep
Take my hand
A way out is all that we need
Pull me off of this path
Of struggle and sacrifice
Pull me out of this crypt
And lead me into the sky
I break these walls for me and you
So we could escape the life we knew
Flying into the turbulence
So we could escape to somewhere new
Living in mayhem
I'm checking out
Living in mayhem
There's no way out
Uncharted
Horizons we've never seen
Conquering
The fear that's in front of me
Share your soul
From now to eternity
Take my hand
A way out is all that we need
Pull me off of this path
Of struggle and sacrifice
Pull me out of this crypt
And lead me into the sky
I break these walls for me and you
So we could escape the life we knew
Flying into the turbulence
So we could escape to somewhere new
I break these walls for me and you
I break these walls for me and you
I break these walls for me and you
So we can escape to somewhere new
Yeah
We'll make the earth shake
Me and you
We'll make the earth shake
I felt the earth shake
Just another casualty
Living in mayhem
I'm checking out
Living in mayhem
And there's no way out
Haywire
This time bomb will detonate
Running out
This clock won't stop ticking away
Heavy weight
Drawing my breath in deep
Take my hand
A way out is all that we need
Pull me off of this path
Of struggle and sacrifice
Pull me out of this crypt
And lead me into the sky
I break these walls for me and you
So we could escape the life we knew
Flying into the turbulence
So we could escape to somewhere new
Living in mayhem
I'm checking out
Living in mayhem
There's no way out
Uncharted
Horizons we've never seen
Conquering
The fear that's in front of me
Share your soul
From now to eternity
Take my hand
A way out is all that we need
Pull me off of this path
Of struggle and sacrifice
Pull me out of this crypt
And lead me into the sky
I break these walls for me and you
So we could escape the life we knew
Flying into the turbulence
So we could escape to somewhere new
I break these walls for me and you
I break these walls for me and you
I break these walls for me and you
So we can escape to somewhere new
Yeah
We'll make the earth shake
Me and you
We'll make the earth shake

Vocalist Levi Benton had this to say when asked to elaborate on what the track represents: "'Earth Shaker' is our self description on the ones who are motivated to get themselves out of the ‘mayhem’ they are experiencing. Everyone out there has reached the breaking point where enough is enough and the time comes to make a change. Sometimes that change can make ripples in your life and redirect you to a new path, but its still forward and that’s what matters. Even when it feels like there is no where to go you can become an ‘Earth Shaker’ and make your own quake in your life."
