Lyrics

Is there nothing but the cold at the centre of a blackhole?

The signal fire’s gonna burn out
Through the sirens and the flares
I was swallowed by the storm clouds
Hail stones on a glass house
There were diamonds in the air
And the oxygen left my chest

Lost souls trapped beneath this ceiling
It’s figure eight ‘til the ghosts have been laid to rest
Pull it tight try to stop this bleeding
Stampede as the horrors run through my head

Death stared and I died a thousand times
Nightmares left a riot in my mind
Is today so hollow
If there were no tomorrow?
Midnight we cut the power lines
No light but the fire in my eyes
Is today so hollow
If there were no tomorrow?

Sick of living with the pain now
Someone take me for repair
There’s a bitter taste in my mouth
In the silence there was ill health
Maybe life just isn’t fair
Maybe I’m just fucking self obsessed

Don’t say I gotta chase this feeling
Bullets hit but it’s only gonna dent the vest
Wartime with the whole world sleeping
Bombs drop on the prison hope built instead

Struck down
Souls carried through an unknown universe
No service for the faithless
Everything turns to dust
Death stared and I died a thousand times
Nightmares left a riot in my mind
Is today so hollow
If there were no tomorrow?
Midnight we cut the power lines
No light but the fire in my eyes
Is today so hollow
If there were no tomorrow?

There were diamonds in the air
And the oxygen left my chest
Is there anybody there?
I pray that I’ll be blessed

Heaven to earth
God only knows if we’re here in spirit
Chapter and verse
There’s nowhere to go when the sky is the limit

Is there nothing but the cold at the centre of a blackhole?
Nowhere to go when the sky is the limit

#ElectricCallboy #ElevatorOperator

LYRICS:
You heard about a man
The lift controller
The lever king I told ya
Hop in and let the journey begin

Shades
A shiny face
Like he’s someone from outta space
So full of grace
I just wanna get in

Up and down
We’re moving all around
We’re going up and down
We’re moving all around

I wanna show you my world
Where the beat goes up and down
Let me open the door
Elevator Operator

Up! Up!
Down! Down!
Up! Up!
Elevator Operator

I wanna be like him
I really wanna be like him
I wanna be with him
Forget about that

Heads up in the sky
And we keep getting high
A magic down in his lever
That you cannot deny

A glowing light
He’s shining bright
I cannot wait to get inside
Still out of sight
And we wanna go

Up and down
We’re moving all around
We’re going up and down
We’re moving all around

I wanna show you my world
Where the beat goes up and down
Let me open the door
Elevator Operator

Up! Up!
Down! Down!
Up! Up!
Elevator Operator

And I just wanna get down
But I’m just going up
You better listen to the sound
Move your body like a god
And we never stop
Get down

I wanna hear you say
Ta-Ta-Tatata-Tatatata-Get down
Ta-Ta-Tatata-Tatatata-Get down

I wanna show you my world
Where the beat goes up and down
Let me open the door
Elevator Operator

Up! Up!
Down! Down!
Up! Up!
Elevator Operator

Whitechapel - Hymns In Dissonance (Official Video) Hotney 9 Streams • 2 years ago

Buy here: http://www.metalblade.com/whitechapel
“There is nothing nice about Hymns In Dissonance, from the riffs, to the lyrics, to the overall vibe of the album,” says guitarist Alex Wade of the band’s latest output. “We attempted to write our heaviest album to date. We wanted to put out something that was shockingly menacing and brutal.”

“The album follows the story of a cultist who is gathering worthy people to join his cult,” Wade further elaborates, “and there are moments in the storyline where the cult followers are singing an evil hymn to open a portal for the head cultist to enter.”

The band’s dynamic, brutal musicality serves as a soundtrack to the compelling lyrical story that vocalist Phil Bozeman vividly imagines. “Hymns In Dissonance is a mockery of the true nature of what hymns are,” Bozeman explains. “Hymns are melodious and harmonious. Dissonance is the opposite of melody and harmony. Dissonance represents evil. The tracks on the record are the hymns, which represent the seven deadly sins, beginning from Track three to Track ten. Tracks one and two are the introduction.”

The band started composing the new album at Householder’s studio in June of 2023, following their headlining tour for "The Valley." The collective stuck to a strict weekday schedule, the structure allowing for maximum creativity and minimum burnout. Householder produced "Hymns In Dissonance," which allowed the musicians to seamlessly switch gears from preproduction to recording the full album without skipping a beat. The guitarist shadowed producer Mark Lewis a lot over the last five WHITECHAPEL albums and bringing that influence inside the band is a full circle moment for Householder and WHITECHAPEL. “It’s cool that we can be self-sufficient and produce a record of this magnitude ourselves; not a lot of bands can say that.”

Notes Bozeman, “It’s about [the storyline’s cultist] building his cult of followers: Only the most heinous and vile people on the planet showing their devotion to their lord, committing horrible acts, and the leader showcasing his power and his purpose to commit the seven cardinal sins to resurrect their lord, and to replace divinity with evil.”

Adds Wade, “Mostly written by Phil on guitar, "Hymns In Dissonance" has a few riffs and tweaks thrown in by the rest of us. He can churn out some pummeling riffs and it’s one of the best songs on the album because he had a vision for the whole song with the riffs and vocals. It’s tuned to Drop G which we have been using since the self-titled LP, but the ending breakdown shifts down one whole step to Drop F, which we have never done before. Having the final breakdown shift lower than the rest of the song really helped the end have the crushing feeling it needed.”

LYRICS:
Rehtaf fo seil
Rehtaf fo eht ssyba
Ew emoc morf woleb
Nepo ruoy seye gnik Reficul
Redrum meht lla

I've come to consume all the seas
And walk with the surface of the sun beneath my feet
I stand before this withered sepulcher
Saturating my flesh in sulfur
The fruitful now rotten
Restrained by roots of feces and mold

Oh, how I've longed for the stench
And the gentle caress of ivory skin of a witch
Of righteous, I am not

Feel the worms crawl in your every orifice
Your eyes start to jaundice as they make their way through
Converted to our ways, you can't ignore this
Saved from the faith that'll fuck you
Brothers, sisters, mothers smothered
In the name of the father, the abyss walker
The cloth from which I'm cut will never fray
For it is hexed by this hymn that I sing

The trinity denied
Our bloodline will never dry
My words, unsanctified
In time, we'll chant these lines

I am the last living son of the father of lies
The millions of legions that follow by my side
Shall exalt, praise and worship the gift of his possession
Exiled no more, we spread because we are the disease

Hang the virgins
Burn the children
Hymns of dissonance we sing
As the bowels of holy men begin to drain

For those of you who think that the walls can't break
Behold the rusted piece that you will sit on
Feel it penetrate, as above so below
It's the last thing you taste, the shit runs deep
Natas, eht rehtaf
Ehtab su ni ruflus
Natas, eht rehtaf
Ehtab su ni ruflus
We speak in tongues and wallow in rot
The light of the earth, forgot

As you lay impaled on this inverted cross
I masticate the throats of your lambs
As I masturbate to the sound of them choking
A seed of change, from which spawned of my hand
Shall inseminate inside the womb of a whore

We are the last living sons of the father of lies
We cast out the light, eternally refuged in night
Brother Daemon, in your profane name we thrive
To all that are dead, stay dead
We are the means to a messiahbolical end

Father, we've come to devour the eyes of god
Acid and the iris now as one
All-seeing, with the heart encased in fire
Burn, burn
Reversal of the cycle of life itself
Back to the womb we shall terminate
Burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, forever burn

Killswitch Engage - I Believe Hotney 7 Streams • 2 years ago

"'I Believe' is about undying hope," shares Leach. "During difficult times perspective is everything. Knowing deep down that 'this too shall pass' has been a beacon of light for me. I do believe there is meaning behind suffering. If we are able to push through difficult times and come out the other side, there is a renewed sense of purpose."

He continues, "I know there are much more commonalities between all of us as humans than there are differences. The good far outweighs the bad. This is my message to anyone who's listening, things will get better! However you have to believe that they will!. There is power in faith, there is power in manifestation and prayer! Keep the faith and push forward with the confidence of better days ahead. Do not let this world pull you down into despair. Tomorrow is a new day and a new possibility for change!"

"I Believe" lyrics:

I Believe
Covering the truth inside us
giving into spite
Self inflicted paranoia hindering our sight

Lose track of what used to drive you to make you feel alive
That part of yourself that gave you the willingness to fight

Some people will say it's part of life
I chose to refuse to let it slide
Finding faith in these dark times
Keeping hope alive

I believe there is hope for better days
I believe we will conquer what we face

Discovering the faith inside us
save us from despair
No matter what this world will tell you
do not live in fear

Learn to let the light guide you
Let go of the pain
You can't kill the passion in me
My devotion remains

I believe there is hope for better days
I believe we will conquer what we face

Come what may the light will guide my way
Come what may I won't be led astray

Do you believe that something can renew your strength
When you find it you stop at nothing
it's in every word you say
So keep the faith

The light will guide my way
I won't be led astray
and nothing will stand in my way

I believe I believe that there is hope
I believe there is hope for better days

“Making this record lit a fire under my ass and made me rethink everything,” admits Jesse. “It had to be next level. It had to be different enough for people to really recognize we’re putting forth an effort—or what’s the point of doing this? There was no repeating ourselves. It was very carefully planned out and passionately written. It sounds like Killswitch, yet there’s also a fresh spirit to it.”

This time around, the group emphasized working together face-to-face in a Massachusetts rehearsal spot. The process enabled them to apply the pressure on every element. At the collective urging of his bandmates, Jesse poured over his words like never before.

“We pushed him to do more vocal demos and were super tough on him,” recalls Adam. “He was so open to feedback though, and he definitely got the lyrics right. I love it when he and I are face-to-face, and ideas are flying around. We work especially well together when we’re in the heat of the moment. All of the demoing made for a better record, and there was so much communication between all of the band members.”

“It felt like everyone put a ton of effort into this,” Mike adds. “It’s the first time since Alive Or Just Breathing that we really hashed everything out together in the same room. It was a combined effort, and there are even some things you’ve never heard from Killswitch.”

“I never considered myself to be a part of mainstream society,” he goes on. “I’ve always been in the middle. To me, this record is about the consequences of our actions as humans as we engage in war, hatred, division, and falling in line with control. History repeats itself. We’re going to have to answer for our actions—whether it’s how we treat the earth or each other. There will be an uprising and a backlash from nature. Cause-and-effect is a driving theme. We will face a consequence.”

“Gravity” Lyrics:
Decretum fatale
Aeterna sententia
Cruciatus immanis
Servitus perpetua

Decretum fatale
Aeterna lacuna
Divinum refugium
Nefasta fortuna

Drag me down
 
Feel the adrenaline in my veins
As I float in despair
With a stone around my heart
I hold my mind in place
Through dark avenues
Of depression and hate
Pull me down

I have to fall down to climb back on top 
I know how it goes when it’s gone too far
But the center of my gravity is now shattered
I can’t find the balance that i’ve lost

Ground myself to earth
On the verge of abduction
Forget about the life I used to know
Where am I really from?
Distance and time
Are gonna live inside
’Til the bitter end
Pull me down

Where do we go 
When we are not tangible anymore?
Do we travel on a trail of clouding light forever?
Or we disappear somewhere we can’t be seen
And fall asleep into eternity?

It’s gone too far
I will fall down
I’ve gone too far 
I’m falling down

►Lyrics:
This is survivor's guilt
Seven years I'm eight down in ‘23
I would have gone with them if it was up to me
A sand empire is what I've built, now I'm stuck here with survivor's guilt

We used to cut lines together
So we'd have a story to tell
It's not like I did any better
Just dodged a bullet from hell

I'm not sleeping
They're all leaving
I'm still bleeding
I'm still screaming

Guilt, guilt, guilt tied around your neck
Covered up so you won't forget
That you wasted the best of your days
It was all just for nothing
Guilt, guilt, guilt, yeah, you’re on your own
A rent-free nightmare in your bones
Beautiful people are taken
Open your eyes
We remember our own
Two fingers pressed against my neck
I wish I could just trust my friends
Instead I'm such a wasted space, my God it never ends

It’s too damn bad
I can’t get enough blood on my hands
I think I made it up, I’m going mad
Another empire that I built
I guess this is survivor's guilt

Guilt, guilt, guilt tied around your neck
Covered up so you won't forget
That you wasted the best of your days
It was all just for nothing
Guilt, guilt, guilt, yeah, you’re on your own
A rent-free nightmare in your bones
Beautiful people are taken
Open your eyes
We remember our own

We got it all but we’re stuck in the trenches,
Crying for help but it’s just two feet deep
Losing limbs might be part of the process, what happens next is a choice that ain’t cheap
When we all go extinct
Don't remember our names
Cause we closed our eyes
Let life pass us by
We carry the blame

Guilt, guilt tied around your neck
Was it all just for nothing
Was it all just for nothing
Guilt, guilt tied around your neck
Was it all just for nothing
It was all just for nothing

Forever Aligned:
Shot by Travis Shinn, Jeremy Danger, and Tom Bejgrowicz
Edited by Jeremy Danger

"Forever Aligned is about connection and that spiritual energy that bonds us as humans. It is equally about human love inspired by my relationship with my wife as well as my connection to what I feel is God. To me God is love, love is much greater than anything we can achieve as humans. It is a power that transcends life and death." - Jesse Leach

-------
Forever Aligned lyrics:

Wander through this desolation
the emptiness inside
The venom of this isolation begins to claim it's prize
A part of me only you could see
to save this wretched wounded man from all consuming grief

Breathing a new vitality
Give me a place to rest
Connecting the deepest depths of me
Now my tongue must confess

It's you I find forever in my mind
We are aligned inside forever in my mind
We are aligned

When my breath begins to tremble
swallowed by this dread
I feed me to the wolves that linger in the shadows of my head
Find a pain in me
it will bleed eventually
Face to face with what must change
killing this deceit

Pull me from the depths
Save me from defeat

Deliver me a revelation to find a new belief

It's you I find forever in my mind
We are aligned inside forever in my mind

All you can see eternally
connection of spirit and what's in between this life
I find forever in my mind

Calculating divinity to understand the spirit unseen
Now we are aligned
We are aligned

And it's you I find forever in my mind
We are aligned inside
Forever
We are aligned

“It felt like everyone put a ton of effort into this,” Mike adds. “It’s the first time since Alive Or Just Breathing that we really hashed everything out together in the same room. It was a combined effort, and there are even some things you’ve never heard from Killswitch.”

Jesse culled inspiration from “hours on Thesaurus.com,” reading as many books as possible, and interacting with fans on the road in between. He confesses, “I found my voice again.”

“I never considered myself to be a part of mainstream society,” he goes on. “I’ve always been in the middle. To me, this record is about the consequences of our actions as humans as we engage in war, hatred, division, and falling in line with control. History repeats itself. We’re going to have to answer for our actions—whether it’s how we treat the earth or each other. There will be an uprising and a backlash from nature. Cause-and-effect is a driving theme. We will face a consequence.”

The first single “Forever Aligned” finds the band firing on all cylinders. Jesse’s growl weighs heavy on a galloping beat and dual-guitar battering ram. The barrage breaks like a wave on a chantable chorus, “It’s you, I find, forever in my mind, we are aligned,” giving way to a melodic bridge laced with a hummable lead line.

“When you find someone who won’t give up on you, forge a friendship, or have a family member who makes you a better person, you realize what love actually is,” notes the frontman. “I think true love is far beyond human comprehension. We have glimpses of it, but we’ll never grasp it. When you’re striving to be filled with love, it’s a selfless path. It’s a spiritual connection; it transcends life and death. The energy of love moves on eternally, so you’re forever aligned with who you love.”

“Even with all of the brutality, the hook is right up there with some of our best,” smiles Mike. “We felt like it was the perfect song to introduce this chapter and show we’re ready to go.”

‘Floriography’ Lyrics
---------------------------------------
Will you talk to me through floriography
Will you throw me a letter into the raging sea
Or should I stop?

I've been listening to ghosts
Imperceptible but so close
Searching for whispers to expose
I hope you're messaging me in code
Been reading all the things you wrote
Every insignificant footnote

Did you leave a mark on a tree
That reminded you of you and me?
Have you been trying to visit me in my dreams lately
Will you write me a song in cryptography?

Will you talk to me through floriography
Will you throw me a letter into the raging sea?
Or should I stop being so persistent
Searching for something nonexistent?

I've been reading behind the lines
Been deciphering the signs
A couple of million times
Did you fold a page in my favorite book
Marking words from a quiet nook
Did you make an acronym out of a lyrical hook?

Did you leave a mark on a tree
Or speak through floriography?
'Cause these ferns and foxgloves are following me
Must I heat up a piece of paper to reveal invisible ink?
'Cause I've been trying to tell you so many things
And have been waiting for an answer ever since

Will you talk to me through floriography
Will you throw me a letter into the raging sea?
Or should I stop being so persistent
Searching for something nonexistent?

"Meet me at the Taxus tree
Quickly, silently
Don't let them see, will you?"

Lyrics
Echos flow, bury me
Sharpen your knife upon the stone
Cover me up before you go, so delicate the orchids grow
Buried under melted snow
So I call out your name and let it die slow
I pray that the rain will wash me up, so obvious I can’t let go
Carried in the ebb and flow
So cover up the well and leave
A gift to summon the spring
Imitation of a perfect soul
I shine a light into a thousand eyes all watching, waiting
Echos flow
Deafening
Calling up
Bury me
A fortress of eyes and gnashing teeth
In judgment they’re staring back at me
So obvious I can’t let go of where you buried me
So cover up the well and leave
A gift to summon the spring
Imitation of a perfect soul
I shine a light into a thousand eyes all watching, waiting
Echos flow
Deafening
Calling up
Bury me

So cover up the well and leave
A gift to summon the spring
Imitation of a perfect soul
I shine a light into a thousand eyes all watching (waiting)
Wait for me (echos flow)
A gift to summon the spring (deafening)
Imitation of a perfect soul (calling up)
I shine a light into a thousand eyes all watching, waiting (bury me)
My dreams are just a fantasy
And that is all they’ll ever be
I turn the lights out on a thousand eyes all watching, waiting

Lyrics:
Tell me why, I cannot see the stars this time
Tell me why, tell me why
This time
Tell me why, I cannot feel my stars align
Tonight

Tonight I feel my life could fall to pieces
Walking around with a glimmer of hope that’s fading

Tell me why, I cannot see the stars this time
Tell me why, I lose myself in neon lights
Tell me why, I cannot see the stars this time
Tell me why, I lose myself

A house of cards and a king of lies
Dancing around your world of lies
A lesson learned from a broken heart
In your prison without walls

I am not afraid, you can try me
Yeah you try to bring me down
Even if the sky falls down
Yeah I said it won’t bring me down

So tell me why, I cannot see the stars this time
Tell me why, I lose myself in neon lights
Tell me why, I cannot feel my stars align tonight

I cannot believe I was blind to the games that you played
But as day turns to night, I’ll get brighter and take over

LYRICS
Light up the cabin as we’re going through the ride of your life
The rhythm of the tracks sings a lullaby as the world passes by
Full speed of power as we go through the night
Through space and through time with a glorious view in sight
Let’s all sing the anthem together

On a train rolling down the tracks through the town
Adventures await, there’s no turning back.
Through landscapes and songs we will speed along, a train ride where memories
belong

This glory we feel as we go through the night
Shifting the gear, maximum gain
Made of iron and steel going with the speed of light
This is the Power Train

Don’t worry my friend, the train is safe as the band entertains
We’re going off rail just like a crazy train
Full speed of power as we’re going through the night
Through space and through time with the most epic view in sight
Now we’re singing the anthem together

On a train rolling down the tracks through the town
Adventures await, there’s no turning back.
Through landscapes and songs we will speed along, a train ride where memories
belong

This glory we feel as we go through the night
Shifting the gear, maximum gain
Made of iron and steel going with the speed of light
This is the Power Train

CRADLE OF FILTH - Malignant Perfection (Official Video) | Napalm Records Hotney 14 Streams • 2 years ago

Listen to "Malignant Perfection" now: https://lnk.to/COF-MalignantPerfection

Directed by Vicente Cordero
Creative Director: MM Fabrications

Dani Filth divulges about the track and video:
"Our new single and video, 'Malignant Perfection’, is our horrific homage to All Hallows Eve, as embodied by the female deification of evil. It is a perfect musical accompaniment to the spirit of the witching season; invoking dark, Autumnal splendour and celebrating the time when the thin line between life and death is at its most tenuous and the denizens of the otherworld seek to break the veil into ours.

The video, directed by the imitable Vicente Cordero and featuring the creative masterstrokes of one Missy Munster, is a playground of seductive darkness rife with malicious monsters and cryptid creations, all vying voraciously for the viewer’s eternal soul.

This comes at a perfect juncture for the Halloween period and our ‘By Order Of The Dragon’ UK/European Autumn tour. It also arrives on the back of a sensational collaboration with massive fashion label Vetement and also Blackcraft Clothing, and in the fiery wake of a successful sold-out Australian tour."

Malignant Perfection Lyrics

Kindred may I introduce
Upon the mortal fools
The evil that has shaken loose
From bondage to now rule

She walks at dusk to tragic serenades
As the river shivers at her passing darkness

Tonight it ends, the sun
Bleeds out across the fields
The last of summer bends, undone
By the seed of winter’s build

She comes with malignant perfection
Mass erection
Temples praise the brazen goddess

On All Hallows Eve
Free the demons from my soul untethered
Prise wide the rifts All Hallows Eve
Be the conduit of dreams forever

Autumn leaves lay tribute, thunder peals
As her voice uncurls in the clifftop beacons
_I break the gates of chaos neath my heels_
Bad shadows dance, stray daylights weaken

As above and so below
The haunted angels sing
A love rekindled for the crows
The flaunted death of everything

She is a scar with a wicker tiara
Inamorata,
Fire-starter, hills ablaze

On All Hallows Eve
Free the demons from my soul, untethered
Accept these gifts my pallid Queen
Be the conduit of screams forever more…

Embrace the uninhibited
In the face of the coming storm

A precipice
On the abyss
Lean o’er to kiss
The things given to rue

Danse macabre
A grand bizarre
Now the veil parts
For fates to slither through

She comes with malignant perfection
Mass erection
Temples praise the brazen goddess

On All Hallows Eve
Free the demons from my soul, untethered
Prise wide the rifts on All Hallows Eve
Be the conduit of dreams forever

On All Hallows Eve
Be the conduit of screams forever more…
