If there was a single day I could live...a single breath I could take
I'd trade all the others away.
The blood's on the wall, so you'd might as well just admit it
And bleach out the stains, commit to forgetting it.
You're better off empty and blank,
than left with a single pathetic trace of this
Smother another failure, lay this to rest.
Console yourself, you're better alone
Destroy yourself, see who gives a fuck
Absorb yourself, you're better alone
Destroy yourself.
I'll chain you to the truth for the truth shall set you free
I'll turn the screws of vengeance and bury you with honesty
I'll make all your dreams come to life,
then slay them as quickly as they came
Smother another failure, lay this to rest.
Console yourself, you're better alone
Destroy yourself, see who gives a fuck
Absorb yourself, see who gives a fuck.
Failure.
If there was a day I could live,
if there was a single breath I could take
I'd trade all the others away.

Definately sounds better than anything of their last cd but it isn't "New American Gospel" quality.

This song sucks. All he does is scream, and at his best, he sounds like a dying animal. Good guitars, though.

Real metal is Metallica, AC/DC, and Mudvayne. But I must admit, this song is starting to grow on me...

How do you figure "real metal, very real"? Alright, alright, so I I can see the song has a good focus, and the guitars are great. I don't think I'll ever be crazy about the vocals though. Seriously, the guy sounds like a dying animal.

This isn't that great of a song, compared to the others. And, this song is a complete rip-off of Into The Pit by Testament.

now that i realize it, this breakdown sounds a bit too familiar to deadwater drownings in "getting sentimental on that ass"
either way still an awesome song
