As I Lay Dying - Meaning In Tragedy Lyrics






Yeah

I have traveled so far to find so little
Meaning in tragedy or tragedy
In the search for meaning
Dark clouds have lead me here

Yeah

Confined freedom
Guides us to security
What if everything (yeah)
I have been taught is a lie
And all of my teachers
Have been wrong this whole time

Compelling us to fight
The battles they would not
They have already won
And we have already lost
If we do not learn from their mistakes
We have already lost

Yeah

If we do not learn to change

  15. J.... O....

    perfect time to stage a crime

  16. J.... A....

    AGH! the nostalgia from 7th grade is seriously making me cringe right now. all I remember is being obsessed with this album for a little while and making everybody in the car listen to it. Lmao.

  17. N.... H....

    this album shit on the newer one. it's a CD that when you fuckin started it, you went at 1 and let it go through every track.

    N.... H....

    Neck Hudson Yep, I remember wen it dropped I was so stoked, I wuld play it from the start to finish

  18. N.... ....

    Double pedals 🎶🎶🎶🎶😍

  19. L.... _....

    real metalcore

    L.... _....

    It's called bad ass musical talent, fuck your classifications. YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH

    L.... _....

    i believe they are metalcore with strong swedish melodic death influences atleast on this album. later albums were more trash influenced. whats so bad about worshipping old in flames?

    L.... _....

    @daniel zychniewicz Want an example of a truly real swedish influence on a metalcore? Listen up Oncoming Storm by Unearth

    L.... _....

    @comrad ive heard them dude. unearth is good shit.

  20. T.... N....

    the buildup to the drop at the end always gets me

    T.... N....

    i think that's what you hear when you go super saiyan.

    T.... N....

    @Sonidodesilencio heh

  21. B.... .....

    some good old metalcore! did a cover of it on my channel.

    B.... .....

    +Bjorn .Andersson (hgfbjrn) /watch?v=fKeSPtDz6PU

  22. D.... E....

    sound like the darkest night ? :/

    D.... E....

    +David Evans I always thought this riff sounded kinda like The Darkest Nights main riff!!!

  23. J.... S....

    yo me la jalo con esta cancion

  24. A.... ....

    2:05 could of sworn i was listening to the riff that lead to the formation of still remains lol

  25. A.... W....

    That moment when everybody starts claping their hands 2:27

  26. A.... C....

    Such a shame for Tim, he was a musical genius. On the first four albums or so he composed 80% of the songs. In Upside Down Kingdom and Awakened he left his shitty band mates (who didnt even bother to visit him in jail -except for the drummer-) take the lead when it comes to writing songs (imo this is why most songs from those albums are shallow). Frail words collapse is the magnum opus of Tim I believe.

    A.... C....

    theres a couple decent ones on those albums... but yeah, not quite up to snuff compared to the others.

  27. c.... l....

    Weird, this almost sounds melo death ish, a little bit like in flames

    c.... l....

    Bàlør Club Theme Rumored AJ Styles And Nakamura Confirmed

    c.... l....

    A lot Metalcore sounds like Melodeath, look at Darkest Hour and old All that Remains. Would argue that this isn't isn't really Metalcore.

    c.... l....

    chazzy licks Not exactly weird at all, since AILD and a lot of Metalcore bands from that time were heavily influenced by In Flames and At the Gates.

  28. J.... ....

    So fucking underated

  29. J.... V....

    Fuck Tim this was a good band

  30. J.... ....

    I think a barrier to more people liking this music is the fact you can only understand 10% of what he says.. I'm into metally music and I can listen to their latest album, Awakened, because of their slightly increased amount of intelligible words. Just my take on it.

    J.... ....

    Eh, that's still a very "pop-ish" way of looking at music. You have to either learn to listen closer to the lyrics or to think of the vocals as just another instrument that sets the tone for the whole of the song.

  31. H.... H....

    I'm still baffled to see this song having less than 100.000 views. This is honestly one of their best songs. That opening riff, I mean just wow.

    H.... H....

    I agree man.  I've felt that way since I pressed play on the album for the first time going to my sophomore year in highschool.

    H.... H....

    the riff at 2:05

    H.... H....

    The whole song sends chills Down my spine. Dare I say AILD's best song.

    H.... H....

    The opening riff sounds very much like In Flames - Trigger btw

  32. c.... ....

    this, through struggle and 94 hours on repeat, im good to go

    c.... ....

    For real man

    c.... ....

    Gotta add Forever, in there too.

    c.... ....

    dont forget reinvention

  33. J.... M....

    YESSS!!!

  34. A.... ....

    Έλα ρε Ελλαδάρα !!! Πριν διαβάσω το όνομά σου κατάλαβα πως είσαι Έλληνας ! Από το κέρασμα !!!!

  35. S.... ....

    FUCK YOU YOUTUBE, why I can't make it any louder?!

  36. F.... ....

    YEEEEAAAHHH! I have traveled so far to find so little meaning in tragedy OOORRR! tragedy IINN! the search for meaning! Dark clouds have led me here YEEEAAAHHH!
    confined freedom leads us to security! what if everything I have learned is a lie and all of my teachers have been wrong this whole time! compelling us to fight the battles they would not! they have already won and we have already lost! if we do not learn from their mistakes!

  37. a.... m....

    Yes no hater comments on this vid, finally!

  38. k.... ....

    DAT MURDER

  39. T.... ....

    haha, thanks mate!

  40. N.... J....

    yes, the studio version sounds 150 times better. I can see Im not the only one who agrees.

  41. B.... ....

    Fuckin True! :D

  42. M.... W....

    This is actually the Special Edition, which is the Re-Issue, not a first press.

    M.... W....

    Yeah it says that on the picture. Thanks genius

  43. M.... J....

    Very nice ;)

  44. W.... ....

    As i Lay dying... one of the most underrated bands and probably the greatest modern metal band

  45. P.... ....

    Yesh I do.. I see your comments mostly on older In Flames songs :D

  46. P.... ....

    I swear I see your comments on EVERY song video I've watched in the past 30 minutes.

  47. T.... C....

    I AGREE

    But everything from them is SO fantastic

  48. T.... C....

    OH MY GOD

    everytime i listen to this band i fall in love deeper

  49. J.... B....

    this song is so catchy, gets me going.

  50. H.... L....

    HULK SMAAAAASSSHH!!!!

  51. s.... ....

    Throw one of those my way also !

  52. A.... B....

    By far the best As I Lay Dying album. Fantastic stuff.

  53. j.... p....
