Sound The Alarm

Song Meaning

Disciple sets this song inside a scene of real crisis — someone bolting doors, replacing bandages, convinced they're "not the only one left in the aftermath." The urgency isn't metaphorical dressing; the song reads like someone genuinely trying to warn others before it's too late.

Their repeated cry — "is there anyone out there? Someone getting the message?" — carries real vulnerability alongside the warning: "I'll tell you all my sins, don't let me die alone." Disciple doesn't pretend the danger is abstract, and they don't pretend to face it without fear either.

James instructs believers to confess their sins to one another in James 5:16, precisely the kind of honesty Disciple is reaching for mid-crisis, and Ezekiel is appointed a watchman in Ezekiel 33:6, responsible for sounding a warning others might otherwise miss. Disciple's closing defiance — "come on, try to take me, I'm ready" — turns the alarm itself into an act of courage, not just an admission of danger.

[Verse 1]

I get the feeling that

I'm not the only one

Left in the aftermath

Waiting to see the sun


[Verse 2]

I've bolted every door

Replaced my bandages

Something beneath the floor

Keeps playing with my head


[Verse 3]

Is there anyone out there?

Someone getting the message?

Are you waiting for rescue?

Have you loaded your weapon?


[Chorus]

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying-

Can you hear it?


[Verse 4]

This plague of ignorance

Has eaten through my bones

I'll tell you all my sins

Don't let me die alone


[Verse 5]

All I see is suffering

Spreading out and poisoning my soul

If I make it out alive

You'll be the only one who knows


[Verse 6]

Is there anyone out there?

Someone getting the message?

Are you keeping a secret?

Are you praying to heaven?


[Verse 7]

Is there anyone out there?

What'd you hear in the basement?

Does it wanna destroy you?

Are you ready to face it?


[Chorus]

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying to sound the alarm

I'm trying-

Can you hear it?

Can you hear it?


[Verse 8]

Come on, try to take me, I'm ready

I'm ready, I'm ready

Come on, try to take me, I'm ready

I'm ready, I'm ready

Come on, try to take me, I'm ready

I'm ready, I'm ready

Come on, try to take me, I'm ready

I'm ready, I'm ready

Well it's come for me but I'm taking it head on


[Verse 9]

Is there anyone out there?

Are you getting the message?

Something's coming to get you

Are you ready to face it?

I'm trying to sound the alarm now

Well it's come for me but I'm taking it head on

Is there anyone out there?
