Lamb Of God - Omens [Full Album 2022]

Lyrics to Omens [Full Album 2022] by Lamb Of God

Tracklist: 01. Nevermore Driving down blistered severe The rapacious maw of our despair Black dog follows, strip club echoes The raven's shadow across the ghetto Up the hill in an unmarked grave The mother of American darkness lays Liberty or death to start the battle There's nonesuch place for human chattel Hanging by a threat Now you can choke on it Hanging by a threat So go and choke on it This is a reckoning You hear the ravens scream Hanging by a threat So go and choke on it Across the devil's own half acre There's rusted gallows for an angel The ghosts that built this city scream Of commerce and inhumanity Cancer rides the freeway's edge Falling statues and cigarettes Bullets whip the screaming kettle As teargas cloaks the monumental Hanging by a threat Now you can choke on it Hanging by a threat So go and choke on it This is a reckoning You hear the ravens scream Hanging by a threat So go and choke on it Chained beneath a parking lot Savaged on the auction block In antebellum geography Rage, horror, history Hanging by a threat Now you can choke on it Hanging by a threat So go and choke on it This is a reckoning You hear the ravens scream Hanging by a threat So go and choke on it Nevermore Nevermore 02. Vanishing Strode across the smoky floors in time To bear witness and hear the death of paradigms Lords of sound and simple vice Young gods severe and satellites Augmented nights, adrenaline Of nicotine and satin skin That world is dead, just memories A faded scene inside of me Vanishing Vanishing (Vanishing) Born of earth shaking Maldoror The legion crushed The legion crushed what came before Imploded meaning for the youth Who never knew Never knew the joy of truth Their pale and pallid replication Could never spark a true creation That world is dead, just memories A faded scene inside of me Vanishing Vanishing (Vanishing) Scorched minds and stark narration Adroit intent not imitation Blurred reflections, a better time Post-modern tantrums on a father's dime Vanishing Vanishing Vanishing Vanishing A shining path beckons me Never to be seen again A shining path beckons me Never to be seen again A shining path beckons me Never to be seen again A shining path beckons me Never to be seen again 03. To The Grave I've walked the halls of madness, I've heard the jailer's laugh I've yet to sing the funeral dirge, the only option left Risen from an inferno of hopelessness and shame Walked the tightrope out of it then shouldered all the blame But make no mistake, I know it's always there It's always there The scent of doom riding neglect, it's hanging in the air The only thing to fear remains inside unseen Never disappears, stand guard eternally The only thing I fear lives on inside of me Whispers in my ear, to the grave eternally The broken record of my life skips bodies of my friends So many walked that path with me, it took them to their end Resting on rusty laurels, it's sweating while you sleep It's doing push-ups in the dark with a knife between it's teeth So lest you forget, it never fades away Won't fade away Waiting for you to slip and put you in the grave The only thing to fear remains inside unseen Never disappears, stand guard eternally The only thing I fear lives on inside of me Whispers in my ear, to the grave eternally It's always there, you best beware Risen from an inferno but waiting in the deep It's always there The only thing to fear never disappears The only thing I fear whispers in my ear I'll take it to the grave with me 04. Ditch I don't give a goddamn About your demands Just spit your trash and take a bow I've heard it all before, a running mouth The deviants and miscreants break their vows You can all keep digging, I'm crawling out You're face down, down in a ditch that you dug yourself You can live and die by the hand you're dealt Unwound consequence and you can never tell Live or die by the hand you're dealt Blinded by revenge And your cowardice They're all so scared again, it's so American Here in the home of the brave and the terrified Who can we blame this time, back of the fucking line We're running out of excuses, we're out of lies You're face down, down in a ditch that you dug yourself You can live and die by the hand you're dealt Unwound consequence and you can never tell Live or die by the hand you're dealt Down in a ditch that you dug yourself You can live and die by the hand you're dealt Unwound consequence and you can never tell Live or die by the hand you're dealt You demand a life you haven't earned Entitled, soft, and soon to learn There's no shoulders here for crying You command an ego gone unchecked Unbridled needs for cheap respect But your dreams were built for dying Built for dying You're face down, down in a ditch that you dug yourself You can live and die by the hand you're dealt Unwound consequence and you can never tell Live or die by the hand you're dealt Down in a ditch that you dug yourself You can live and die by the hand you're dealt Unwound consequence and you can never tell Live or die by the hand you're dealt You're down in a ditch 05. Omens I cut the weight of connection and lead myself astray The end will justify the means but in the end it stays the same There's nothing left at all, nothing left to see A restrictive empty exercise within a hollow scheme Do you see the omens? Omens Fuck it all, ignore the omens Omens Omens Fuck it all, ignore the omens An endless recitation thrown right through the looking glass I'm trapped inside a parody, a fabricated past Searching for release from all this rising stress Charted past the point of caring with a broken compass Motes in the eye of God, indulging armageddon The devil slits the muse's throat and drinks her last confession Do you see the omens? Omens Fuck it all, ignore the omens Omens Omens Fuck it all, ignore the omens I've fallen out of touch with who you think I am I can't pretend to care or bother to condemn All this rising apathy, it's growing everyday I can't pretend to care about how this will end All I see are omens Omens Fuck it all, ignore the omens I see omens I hear omens I say Fuck it all, ignore the omens 06. Gomorrah He packed up all his failures and pushed them down the street Abandoned ship and torched the bridge to future memories He never gave a second thought or tasted indecision An automatic exit in the year of perfect vision The years of slowly dying had come to serve him well Just another inconvenience, another bitter pill A hardened heir of harder times, well-equipped to suffer And watch the fragile fall to pieces tearing at each other Dissecting all the signs that passed him by Reconstruct a pattern drawn by clearer eyes Everything is doomed to fail Everything is doomed to fail Visions of the obvious A featherweight apocalypse Everything is doomed to fail Everything is doomed to fail High above the empty city, riding out the winter He watched it all collapse below and saw the rigid splinter A discipline of solitude perfected in their prisons To lean into the void and smile as chaos ripped the system The lines crept across, waiting for a subject From a force of will, a crucifying effect Everything is doomed to fail Everything is doomed to fail Visions of the obvious A featherweight apocalypse Everything is doomed to fail Everything is doomed to fail A panicked hoard that tumbles down Screeching outraged parasites Another day above the ground Another day in paradise Everything is doomed to fail Everything is doomed to fail Visions of the obvious A featherweight apocalypse Everything is doomed to fail Everything is doomed to fail 07. Ill Designs Now that you can't come back To face your own reflection Constructing your collapse Designing your destruction With ill designs burned in your eyes Hide in the shadow of your lies, antagonize Virtue displaced, a pure disgrace No dignity, a barren waste, still on the take Who will you be today? Reap the rotten fruits of your labor A bitter taste of exile and failure Fatal flaws becoming clearer Reptile eyes in the mirror Loss of reality Obsessing over control And with a crooked mentality Watch it all implode and fall away A tragedy your sick intentions on display a strategy And in the end you can't pretend It's not the spoils of your intent, malevolence Reap the rotten fruits of your labor A bitter taste of exile and failure Fatal flaws becoming clearer Reptile eyes in the mirror Every back you stabbed, and every disrespect Turns back on you, cause and effect Strings you pulled and decks you stacked A falling house of cards, a pathetic wreck Reap the rotten fruits of your labor A bitter taste of exile and failure Fatal flaws becoming clearer Reptile eyes in the mirror 08. Grayscale There's a war going on inside my head Shadows sewn of golden thread I sip the sweetest tastes until their bitter ends I feel the greatest love inside the worst revenge Cold rain falls on my face and the light in my hand I’m turning inside out, I don't know who I am And do I want it to stop? Grayscale eyes slide from black to white Lived through dark days, stillness in a crashing wave Died in bright nights, fall into an angry sky Grayscale eyes slide from black to white In a grayscale tide There's a war going on inside of me Questions echo endlessly I paid a thief to steal away my one escape I bought a broken mirror just to try and see my face Cold winds blow from the hills, there’s eyes on my back In sinking shifting sands, I don't know where I am Grayscale eyes slide from black to white Lived through dark days, stillness in a crashing wave Died in bright nights, fall into an angry sky Grayscale eyes slide from black to white In a grayscale tide I thought I'd know better now, the world is upside down I thought I'd know better now, the weight is crashing down Grayscale eyes slide from black to white Lived through dark days, stillness in a crashing wave Died in bright nights, fall into an angry sky Grayscale eyes slide from black to white In a grayscale tide 09. Denial Mechanism A pathetic birth of the end times Slowly creeping to the final deadline No fairytale on a movie screen Just slow collapse beneath our gluttony Take warning As the bloated masses gather Take warning At their childish screams of anger Suck this broken system dry until there's nothing left Take warning Take warning An idiotic doomsday, a witless Armageddon Mass annihilation at the hand of our possessions Plastic in your bloodstream, plastic in your brain The human race is fucked behind our thirst for everything Take warning As the bloated masses gather Take warning At their childish screams of anger The population bomb explodes, we've starved them all to death Take warning Take warning Whores to despotism Denial mechanisms Free market suicides Extinction level lifestyles But I'll be dead and gone long before the blade drops It's up to you my children to decide if this all stops Take warning 10. September Song A celebration to swell the system Mass casualties, earth's war of attrition A slate-colored moment in an amber time Nothing to do but move the needle down the line Move it down the line Ride the plague winds back to where we were before Moving through the night, illuminate the killing floor Divided here together, to sing a deadly song Divided here together, to sing a deadly song September A confrontation over existence Past tragedies creating resistance Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more Where poison is the balm and endless dead ignored The dead ignored The lights upon the blacktop, raise a toast of arsenic Fill the coffers, roll the dice, amusements for the sick Divided here together, to sing a deadly song Divided here together, to sing a deadly song September We sing a deadly song Divided here together, we sing a deadly song September We're broken in half, mindset split Stitched together, this game of Russian Roulette One in the chamber, head full of doubt More food for the crows who ride it out We'll ride it out Divided here together Breathing here together Divided here together Bleeding here together September
