Bad Religion - Cyanide Lyrics






Well let me bend your ear
Because I'm never really there
When shadows turns to light
And hope into despair

There was an only one
But the broody skies above
Brought down a shameful stain
And not a single drop of cleaning rain

Let me say
(Oh oh) well there's no place left to hide
(Oh oh) from the loneliness inside
The road to you is paved right through with bloody good intentions
And missin' you is like kissin'
Cyanide

Well in this world of things
One of them is lost
I've been it in my dreams
But not without a cost

Down a lonely street
It was our destiny to meet
Nobody asked you twice
We found purchase then with no requite (nothing nice)

(Oh oh) well there's no place left to hide
(Oh oh) from the loneliness inside
The road to you is paved right through with bloody good intentions
And missin' you is like kissin'
Cyanide

Would you believe in something good that's so wrong
And have you worshiped our invention
I've paid my debt in coin and sweat with trifling hesitation
Because the road to you is paved with good intentions

(Oh oh) well there's no place left to hide
(Oh oh) from the loneliness inside
The road to you is paved right through with bloody good intentions
And missin' you is like kissin'
Cyanide
Cyanide
Cyanide
Cyanide
Cyanide
Cyanide
Cyanide
Cyanide

Bad Religion Cyanide Comments
  1. N.... I....

    que hermoso tema por favor

  2. D.... C....

    What the fuck, why is this song censored?

  3. S.... ....

    Bad Religion sounds pop punk on this song

  4. t.... f....

    I dont know 4 you girls and boys, butt to me it's sound pretty much as a openeyer bad realationship song.....

  5. c.... r....

    I love this album alone in my room. Driving alone and always feels better after I listenen to it therapy for sure

  6. B.... ....

    The road to you is paved right through with bloody good intentions
    And missin' you is like kissin' Cyanide

    That was stuck in my head all day today and I haven't heard this song in months. Odd

  7. R.... O....

    The best

  8. L.... v....

    Cyanide and happiness show (?) ::-D

  9. p.... ....

    People give this song some shit because of the popoy nature of it. I think bad religions strengh is how diverse their catalog is (minus that little electronic album, never talk about thay one.).

    p.... ....

    i actually enjoy that album too

  10. a.... ....

    identical beginning to 96 wallflowers listen:

  11. G.... ....

    mmm not bad but I don't like the pop edge this album has it rubs me the wrong way. I love when Bad Religion do fast songs even their slower songs are good as long as they have an edge to them but this album is too happy I don't know it bothers me.

  12. G.... C....

    This album is so fucking good all the way through, but this has to be my favorite song off it

  13. u.... c....

    reeeeee locooo wacho

  14. C.... ....

    que buen tema la puta madre, me trae demasiados recuerdos

  15. R.... B....

    The solo always reminds me of guitar hero |||

  16. C.... 1....

    that sweet solo 1:05-1:18

    C.... 1....

    That's Mike Campbell's solos (Tom Petty's right-hand guitar dude from 1970-2017). He also plays the solo work on "Los Angeles Is Burning" as well.

    C.... 1....

    @globalmonkey it is burning still very relevant song in 2018

  17. d.... a....

    De la ultima epoca es de las mejores canciones!

    d.... a....

    +damian andres Al fin alguien habla español aca loco! jajajaja Increíble bad religion creo que puede ser mi banda favorita junto con El cuarteto de nos

    d.... a....

    @J Rus Es una gran banda... Cuarteto de nos no me llega pero de seguro han de ser buenos tambien.

    d.... a....

    damian andres aguante bad religion! y los uruguayos del cuarteto!

    d.... a....

    Aguante El Bordo

  18. a.... k....

    I miss old Bad Religion, but this song is cool too :)

    a.... k....

    +HBTKK i understand what u mean, but they can't play the same shit like 30 years man, they will evolve and their music will also evolve with them, and it's still amazing imo :)

  19. T.... ....

    bel disco....mi fate star bene con poco.

  20. L.... I....

    It's hard as a Christian to do anything requires any kind of intellectual fortitude.

  21. M.... B....

    6th avenue heartache ? O.o

    M.... B....

    no, "the difference" - same

  22. G.... ....

    Its hard as a Christian to try to explain to my friends who arent into punk that i like a band called Bad Religion.

    G.... ....

    Yeah, they are not ardently anti-religious or anti-spiritual. A close look at the lyrics make that clear. The logo is unfortunate though.

    G.... ....

    They are Bad Religion; I would say that's ardently anti-religious. Religion has a way of defining what would otherwise be up to the individual, and honestly belief is only important or meaningful when a person figures it out for himself (or herself).

    G.... ....

    Happy Guy by NOFX ???

    G.... ....

    Hey man. I have church on Saturdays and skip Sundays :)

  23. t.... ....

    To clear up the pop thing this song has mike cambell from tom petty and the heartbreakers playing the solo
    (he also played on Los anglles is burning)

  24. M.... B....

    Lol never realized that similarity until now. Oh well, guess there's only so much you can do with power chords.

  25. P.... ....

    This might sound weird, but now that they've released the brilliantly solid True North, I can enjoy the poppier albums like this a lot more. True North was the reassurance that BR can still kick fucking ass.

    P.... ....

    PrinceOpana i agree 100 percent. Im glad they are more deverse. Im not buying three more of this kinda album though. Still dig this song.

    P.... ....

    PrinceOpana - I like this album a lot more than true north, but both are good for sure. Brooks is a wizard

  26. D.... S....

    I love all of BR's albums except Into the Unknown. That was the only one I just couldn't get into. This album is amazing though.

  27. N.... E....

    Por algum motivo estranho....esse som me fez lembrar algum som do Wallflowers....KKKkkkkkkkk....

  28. H.... O....

    im not trying to diss them for the sound change, as a musician i understand that music isnt about pleasing other people. but personally, i dont like this shit in comparison to their old stuff. at least true north made up for it.

  29. n.... ....

    Yeah I was soo huge into Rise Against because they were 88 Fingers Louie at one time minus the new singer. Anyways yeah Bad Religion still owns.

  30. d.... ....

  32. H.... E....

    A real great song!!!

  33. A.... ....

    long life to bad religion!!!!!

  34. j.... ....

    bad religion is repaying the favor to RA, cause a few years back RA opened for BR, Now its vice versa

  35. F.... K....

    you mean, Rise Against opened up for Bad Religion? What kind of world is this? no disrespect to Rise Against, amazing band also, but oh man.

  36. n.... ....

    Yeah this is a great song. I didn't like it much at first, but it really grew on me.

  37. s.... ....

    Bad Religion didn't sellout :)

  38. M.... B....

    I gotcha. I don't agree with the general consensus then, because I happen to like the album a lot.

  39. M.... B....

    You're misunderstanding me. I'm a hardcore Rise Against fan, and I love all their albums. But RPM to me will always be their number 1. It's just my favorite because the songs reach me more personally than any of others. Appeal is a great album, but the songs (to me at least) seem less though out musically. They're a bit more straightforward and don't offer as much from a musicians standpoint. Don't think that I don't love the album, because I do.

  40. M.... B....

    @jsh020 Like you said Endgame was a hell of a lot better than Appeal. That's entirely true. And to me, it's seems like Appeal was sort of an experiment that they didn't completely do right, and Endgame seems like what they really wanted to turn into. But it isn't fair to say they aren't punk still, because the sound isn't really what makes music punk. It's the message. Bad Religion sounds completely different than when they first started, but they're still punk.

  41. j.... ....

    @sevenmarcg no i realize bands need to change music, im a strong believer in that, its just that the music they are getting into isnt that good, endgame was a hell of alot better than appeal to reason was, thats for sure, they need to take some time off and realize what made them so great in the first place and try to cader to both sides, they got that perfect mix with suffer and witness, they need it back

  42. M.... B....

    @jsh020 That's not really fair to say. All musicians change their sound at some point in their career. Their morals and beliefs are still the same, which in my opinion, is what really determines if a band is punk. Sure, Revolutions Per Minute is 1000 times better than Appeal to Reason, but they're still punk.

  43. j.... ....

    @sevenmarcg they really are not punk anymore

    i love RA and all but they need to go back to roots

  44. M.... B....

    @jsh020 But if they had to open for any band, i'm glad it was rise against. one of the only reasonable punk bands left that formed recently

  45. j.... ....

    @sevenmarcg yah but its a shame that bad religion has fallen so far they need to open for a band now

  46. M.... B....

    @jsh020 I'm entirely jealous that you saw my favorite two bands live.

  47. M.... O....

    @nathanss28 really? BR have been original and very much punk for a very long time. The subject matter, speedy beat, and disregard for making "pop" is what makes them soething special in the musical atmosphere today. To say only one of thier albums were awesome is a shame on your part, you're not a fan of BR so save the bs.

  48. D.... D....

    theres nothing wrong with not being raw or aggressive. its great some of the time but this is still melodic and has good lyrics. if it sounds good and has good lyrics, why complain? i mean, ill agree suffer and no control are better albums for sure, but its still great.

  49. D.... D....

    @xandepope the band is 30 years old though probably what he meant to say

  50. N.... S....

    It's not raw and aggressive any more. It seems way to radio friendly in comparison to their old shit, which was fucking great. Same thing happened with those other bands you listed. They got old and they lost their punk sound. Punk makes a statement by not sounding mainstream. And it seems that with age this fades from these kinds of bands. Although, I do agree that they deserve credit for their past awesomeness. I fucking LOVE their first album.

  51. B.... A....

    I love this song<3 and of course, I love Bad Religion<3<3

  52. X.... P....

    @bricro87 they are not 30 years old dude! ahahha

  53. H.... ....

    Bad Religion..Thank you for being,first heard you when i was 11,made me what i am today..will always and forever be my favorite band

  54. G.... ....

    I never really liked this album, I really just like the older stuff.. but it's ok, I guess

  55. C.... M....

    @sataystickyrice I don't normally like country.
    But Bad Religion, making music suddenly that is apparently country-like, is fine with me ;)

    I mainly just like the topics of their songs, and the intelligent lyrics. Long as the song as lyrics, and it's by BR, it's one of the best songs in the world, in my view.

  56. K.... p....

    they get older and also his sound get matured ... they are still perfect ...

  57. r.... c....

    welcome to indonesia

  58. j.... ....

    i felt like a total ass when i went to the show in baltimore a few months back and only knew a couple of songs from these guys, i was so set on seeing rise against instead i ended up underestimating how amazing these legends are,

    j.... ....

    Can't blame you Rise Against us fucking amazing too

  59. F.... B....

    @WhatSheWanted No, it doesn't pop. It's not in 3D. Tested it with red-cyan glasses

  60. d.... b....

    Just how I feel about my ex. Missing her is like kissing cyanide. I'm glad I found someone better

  61. P.... T....

    Reminds me of the 90's radio songs. I mean, i like it.

  62. e.... ....

    Bad Religion is pretty good at least. =D

  63. T.... B....

    @3dumdogs Metallica blows.

  64. T.... B....

    @Nazuiko I saw them in Boca, really good show.

  65. S.... Q....

    Went to see these fuckers in Champaign with Rise Against and Four Year Strong. FUCKING GREAT SHOW :D

  66. S.... ....

    I guess its something different. Little more... jumpy and lighthearted in sound? I like it. Perhaps not my favorite of theirs, but its good to know they can branch out a bit too.

  67. S.... J....

    i like metallica's cyanide better

  68. t.... ....

    saw them last Friday in San Diego
    show was amazing
    crowd was fucking amazing
    that's just how we are in San Diego

  69. I.... ....

    Too bad Epitaph doesn't appreciate Bad Religion enough to make ACTUAL videos for their songs. Any elementary school kid could make a video out of the track and the album cover.

  70. H.... ....

    @ratmrulesyou1 hehe i understand what you are meaning, but Bad Religion would never want to be someone's religion! Cheers mate!

  71. m.... b....

    @ratmrulesyou1 gay

  72. K.... L....

    i think this is great! but it seems that br and sd are trying to sound the same... or am i just on crack?

  73. P.... M....

    @jrack13 im not emo whatsoever. good insult

  74. M.... ....

    @0Sneux0 oh my god i hope youre joking...

  75. l.... ....

    @WhatSheWanted works! haha they should make BR glasses

  76. M.... W....

    i put on 3D glasses. didnt work :/

  77. n.... ....

    @jrack13 who cares man, everyone wants to be rich. you gotta make a living, support your family, its the way the world works

  78. P.... M....

    @jrack13 fact, its the fans who make the bands what you call "trendy". epitaph is still a great record label with great bands on it, parkway drive, bad religion, social distortion, etc. dont go blaming the record label for making money, blame the people who listen to the music. no matter how underground or indie a band or record label is, if people like what they hear, they'll buy the albums and go to shows. get that through your thick fuckin' skull and quit being a stupid asshole

  79. e.... ....

    Good song, but what happened to punk rock?

  80. n.... ....

    @jrack13 trrrrrrrrrrrrrrroooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
    you suck if you dont like the song dont comment

  81. B.... ....

    i put on 3d glasses from the movies and looked at the cover and nothing happened. XD aaawwwww

  82. s.... ....

    i fucking love this song

  83. O.... S....

    @kylebr0
    Maybe you can see with the right glasses in 3D^^

  84. r.... ....

    This song sounds like it could have been on Dag Nasty's Field Day! Dig the clean yet crunchy rhythm sound.

  85. k.... ....

    that album cover is trippy

  86. c.... ....

    hmmmm this is too sided to rock and way less punk i dont know.....

  87. W.... ....

    remember those times when punk rock albums never had songs over 2 minutes and 20 seconds exept for that 1 song that had almost 3 minutes?

  88. K.... K....

    Is it me or does the singer sound like an older Mark Hoppus? Nevertheless good song (:

  89. M.... B....

    Nice!:P
