As I Lay Dying - This Is Who We Are Lyrics
Now this is who we are
I am no one's hero
For we are not the giant men
That some may think
You are faithful when we are not
The way it is meant to be
Without the burden that's in our hearts
None of us would have ever found You
For You are faithful when we are not
You began a work
That only you can complete
Now this is who we are
I'll never know the answers
And I'll always wonder why
...Why we're given grace we'll never deserve
And a second chance that we will never earn
For there is nothing I can do to save myself
Now this is who we are
I'll never know the answers
And I'll always wonder why
But You have let me start again
I'd rather be called weak
Than die thinking I was strong

Ain't no nothing happens without a reason. Deadliest murderers or serial killers might come from dysfunctional families, abuse or betrayal. These are the potential causes, not excuses for what they've done. This is who they are, this is what we are.
2019 ❤️🤘

'' I'll never know the answers and I'll always wonder why'' -Me doing maths :P
I wish I can sample the beginning in a hip hop version frfr. But the band is dope af.
I'd forgotten how much I enjoy listening to this song
The kings have returned
I love this song. It begins so powerful and raw and ends so peacefully and beautifully. I did a full cover of this on guitar and piano. Come check it out:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKqZLXvtADk
this makes me want to hire someone to kill my wife
Ruan Liebenberg I've come to the realization that these jokes will never end... nor should they.
You fucked it up big time, Tim.
Lyrics:
Now this is who we are
I am no one's hero
For we are not the giant men
That some may think
You are faithful when we are not
So I'd like to tell this story
The way it is meant to be
Without the burden that's in our hearts
None of us would have ever found You
For You are faithful when we are not
You began a work
That only you can complete
Now this is who we are
I'll never know the answers
And I'll always wonder why
...Why we're given grace we'll never deserve
And a second chance that we will never earn
For there is nothing I can do to save myself
Now this is who we are
I'll never know the answers
And I'll always wonder why
But You have let me start again
I'd rather be called weak
Than die thinking I was strong
Been listening to this song almost 9 or 10 years now. I think the only lyrics I could make out were "This is who we are" then the chorus
I relate to this song so bad.
Listening in 2018 and this shit still slaps!
A timeless classic for me...on of the best Piano bits in metal history
0oooooo sounds dirty 😜 hahaha
2018!!!
2:26 - 3:26 my fucking God is that riff so divinely tasty. Orgasmic.. the word/label that comes to mind that describes it best I believe is... Colorful.
We will miss them alot
And I'll always AND I'LL ALWAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYSSSSS WONDER WHYYYYYYYYYY ♪
Still goes hard
fuck yeaah
we're 666k
666k VIEWS BABBYYYYY
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS IS WHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOO WWWWWEEEEEE AAAARRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE
Tim lambersy sigue en prision???
That guitar sustain at the end is incredible
Through struggle
Great song, looking forward to Tim´s comeback.
attempted wife murderer Tim you mean. Fuck it going to be so hard to listen to them again.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck MASTERPIECEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tengo 19 la escuche desde los 14 y aún me gusta esta fucking canción.
This song is a masterpiece.
Got me through some of my Darkest days!!! Which included my Mom dying from Lung Cancer. Love this music and album. Fuck off haters! Hope u are well Tim! Dig out of that hole brother, need a hand. We will pull u ☝!!!!!
Long live ASILD!!! BEFORE AND AFTER THE AFTERMATH!!! METAL AS FUCK!!!
I love how this kind of music gets criticised all the time for hundreds of different reasons. The piano outro to this song is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard, period. It's astonishing and fucking gorgeous and I love it. Such as shame this band is no more.
Hail from Kuala Lumpur city,Malaysia.
Damn the outro-
This is who we are... damned, forsaken, and enraged
fucking tim!!!!!!!!!
that fucking outro tho
so fucking dope man
No this is who we are never the answers and I'll always wonder why
still in my top 10 albums
my girlfriend just got me hooked onto this lmfao
the greatest music cannot be heard on the radio.
Way too strong for sugar pinky bubble pop lovers :p
H311AF1U5H sad enough it's true!
The sad truth
tim lambesis is out of prison 2/9/17
this is my fu**ing jam
I miss you guys :/
R.I.P favourite Band..
Schak_waR45 :'( yeah
they back tho 🤔
@Blake 8855 They will never be like before, at least they made good music
why tim why why didn't you just divorce her lol or just leave but eh 6 years isn't much he will be out soon
Jennifer Koiv because of the extreme pressures that women put on men
well hes out now
He's out
Thats what i call music
and then eat a 45 long colt dinner
this song makes me want to make love to all of the world
hahahahahahaa
I could kill myself to this song
love this!!!
puta esto si es música
I know how could Tim ruin everything that the bad has accomplished it's so ridiculous
my fingertips hurt now
The fuck are you even doing here?! :D
I guess playing guitar :)
imo what happened to Tim and the band is very sad. People may think he was always like that underneath but i know that's not true. What happened was the best thing to happen because his ex-wife is alive and now prison time may change him back to who he was. It's all part of Gods plan
+ShrapkiN That's your prerogative, but you relied more on ad hominem tactics yourself (logical fallacy) to make your point. It's not like you relied on logic, but good try.
relied? talking about relying on nothing, check out your first comment. nice try.
+ShrapkiN Hahaha. Yeah okay there, bud. You really got me! You don't believe what I do and that's fine. I'm not the one throwing out logical fallacies and name calling people who believe something different than me. Anyway, feel free to reply because I have better things to do than argue with a stranger over the internet. Feel free to have the last word since that's what you so desperately crave. God bless you!
I think you are right. When I listen to the lyrics, there is no way they were written in the flesh, they are too poignant and powerful for that. I pray for him and look forward to the new man God shall bring forth, out of the ashes . . .
God isn't real, it's a made up story to control people through their religious beliefs. Religion makes billions of dollars a year, yet we never see that money go anywhere.
There should be a 10h version of that piano ending. I could just listen to that thing on an endless loop
@Corey Lehman Enterprises 3:48-4:45 Thanks
@Akshay G It's going up in an hour
@Corey Lehman Enterprises thanks a lot man
@Akshay G it's uploading now guys
Remind me to create an extended version, this song is life
This song makes me want to hire a hitman to kill my wife
Your comment makes me want to hire a hitman to kill you. (See the obvious sarcasm).
Jajajaja
Not cool man
Not cool at all
As I Lay In Prison
You sound like a dying moose.
how does one get sound out of a comment made from text lmao
ahahaha!
It was a reference to the song from Austrian Death Machine (So Far, So Good, So Let's Talk About It) where Tim Lambesis, acting as Arnold Schwarzenegger says that the singer of As I Lay Crying sounds like a dying moose. Doesn't look like anyone got it ;).
😂😂😂💀💀💀
Great song
You are so right. Its just who we are. Anyways have a great day. Or whats left of it.
I just dont understand why there's not as many likes as views. Wtf.
+Tommy Biggers Because, sadly, most people just can't relate to excellent, meaningful, deep music.
