There's nothing better than Cook's own words...

Declaration Lyrics (one take)

I'll take you just the way you are
Imperfect words inside imperfect soul
I feel you closer than you are
But I've been waiting far too long
Too long

It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
'Cause you love
And you bleed
And you stole my soul
To set me free
It's my declaration

Do you care what I believe ('Cause I'm still breathin')
Or that I wear your heart upon my sleeve
Sometimes I think you never knew
The only truth I see is you
It's you

It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
'Cause you love
And you bleed
And you stole my soul
To set me free
It's my declaration

And are there any words to say
That I would ever mean enough
When the light runs from the day
Will the darkness be too much
Will I ever be enough

It's my declaration
To anyone whose listening
You're my inspiration
As I stand alone against the world
'Cause you love
And you bleed
And you stole my soul
To set me free

It's my declaration
So tell me you can hear these words tonight

It's my declaration

I love the lyrics of this song. I've been listening to it so much that I pretty much know them by heart now. Great stuff.

LOL Yeah, I can already sing the song.

What do you think it means? I honestly think this is a song for the fans you know (and his family and people who support him).

This is the first song in the album and it really feels like an introduction. Like a book where he says Thank You and now this (the album) is me...

Yeah, at first look it seems like a regular love song but I think especially the line "to anyone who's listening" indicates that it is indeed a song for fans and all the people who support him. It's a perfect song to start the album, to tell who he is and where he stands and to begin his journey into the unknown, which I think superstardom still is for him. Lines like "as I stand alone against the world" and "will I ever be enough" are quite touching, and I hope he knows we believe in him. I'm sure he does.

Linds, it's available on YT and DC LJ (for example).

Completely agree with this. He shows that he's ready for what's coming and he knows there is someone (and I think that someone are his many fans) there to go with him.

This is one of my fav parts

I think people can take it as a love song if they want. But It can be more than that.

I totally agree. Good songs are like that, they leave room for interpretations of your own.

From LJ:



I'm so glad I've pre-ordered, it's good to know that I will actually get the album.

It can be but I honestly think it's for everyone who's there with him, from family to fans, gf to friends. It can go both ways, for sure. But the part "to anyone whose listening" makes me think it's for more people. But double meaning is totally Cook's style And yes, these are his lyrics, no doubt.

Sooner than later that countdown will only have one digit

Once again I agree with Ana.

Imagine the moment when the clock says 0 days 0:00:00!
