Bring Me The Horizon - Blacklist Lyrics

Searching for lyrics....

This is a song about Curtis and the song Memorial is dedicated to Curtis’ memory. It’s why the two songs have never been played live

So just like that, you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire and you took the throne
But you built it from bayonets and sat there alone

So just like that, you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire and you took the throne
But you built it from bayonets and sat there alone
I hope your queen was worth it
Do you still serve her on your knees?
'Cause you sat when the world was at your feet
Just slept while we lived the dream

You won't miss the water till the river runs dry
You won't miss the sunset till it burns out the sky
You won't miss what you have till it's finally lost
But you don't miss a bastard when you're bearing his fucking cross

Blacklist, nothing but a blacklist
With friends like you, there's no need for enemies
With friends like you, there's no need for anything
Blacklist, you're nothing but a blacklist

Well, truth be told I'm a little bit gutted
I mean you were always a prick, but we still seemed to love you
We started this together, and it should've stuck
But there's no room for a useless, miserable fuck
Well, I know I was a cunt in the final days
It just filled me with venom, filled me with rage
To see someone not give a shit, despite of all of this

I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
You're on my blacklist, and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight
I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
Blacklist, blacklist

Blacklist, nothing but a blacklist
With friends like you, there's no need for enemies
With friends like you, there's no need for anything
Blacklist, you're nothing but a blacklist

I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
You're on my blacklist, and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight
I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
You're on my blacklist, and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight

Anyone here in 2019 despise the "here in 2019?" comments???

It seems no one cared for this so I'll do it 5 years later...

So just like that you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire and you took the throne
But you built it from bayonets and sat there alone
I hope your queen was worth it,
Do you still serve her on your knees?
Because you sat when the world was at your feet,
Just slept while we lived the dream

You won't miss the water,
Till the river runs dry
You won't miss the sunset,
Till it burns out the sky
You won't miss what you have,
Till it's finally lost
But you don't miss a bastard,
When you're bearing his fucking cross

Blacklist
Nothing but a blacklist
With friends like you,
There's no need for enemies
With friends like you,
There's no need for anything

Blacklist
You're nothing but a blacklist

Well, truth be told
I'm a little bit gutted
I mean you were always a prick,
But we still seemed to love you
We started this together and it should have stuck
But there's no room for a useless, miserable fuck
Well I know I was a cunt in the final days
It just filled me with venom, filled me with rage
To see someone not give a shit,
Despite of all of this
I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
You're on my blacklist and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight

One of the most underrated thing they made

Anybody from 2035?

[Intro]
So just like that you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire and you took the throne
But you built it from bayonets and sat there alone

[Verse 1]
So just like that you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire and you took the throne

I hope your queen was worth it
Do you still serve her on your knees?
'Cause you sat when the world was at your feet
Just slept while we lived the dream

[Pre-Chorus]
You won't miss the water till the river runs dry
You won't miss the sunset till it burns out the sky
You won't miss what you have till it's finally lost
But you don't miss a bastard when you're bearing his fucking cross

[Chorus]
Blacklist, nothing but a blacklist
With friends like you, there's no need for enemies
With friends like you, there's no need for anything
Blacklist, you're nothing but a blacklist


[Verse 2]
Well, truth be told I'm a little bit gutted

[Bridge]
I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck

I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
You're on my blacklist, and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight

Most underrated BMTH song probably

this song is about global warming

I LOVE THIS BAND SO FUCKING MUCH k thx bye

I bet this is how people feel about me

best song on the album for sure

4:00 the worst part

perfeita d+

Brabro de
mais

Rewind to 0:01 for the best part

This song still goes hard as fuck.

True Friends? ahq aguante esta canción 7u7 <3

Man. Possibly the best song on what is not only my favourite BMTH album but one of my favourite modern metalcore albums, period. Their heaviest riffing, Oli's most pained/expressive vocals, his darkest and most personal lyrics, the most layering (all the strings and keyboards)... truly the band in top form.

i dont know his lyrics on sempiternal were reakky personal too its hard for me to say whats better peak but creatively i think they are still interesting to listen too there music is not modern pop music like people say it is lol

I think , that this song can be on trailer of Breaking Bad

74 people are on the blacklist

This is their best song. It's not their most popular because... there's a few parts in the song that weren't the best 1 or 2 bars they could be. A vocal delivery part here. An effect choice there. Song could have easily been 6 minutes and better for it.

Almost masterpiece. This was almost one of "those songs". Still phenomenal.

Edit: Do not listen to this song here. Listen to it on Spotify or wherever. 720 does not do the production justice.

My fav song from the album

im here with the lyrics ;) so, u know what to do

So just like that you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire, and you took the throne
But you built it from bayonets and sat there alone

So just like that you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire, and you took the throne
But you built it from bayonets and sat there alone
I hope your queen was worth it
Do you still serve her on your knees?
'Cause you sat when the world was at your feet
Just slept while we lived the dream

You won't miss the water till the river runs dry
You won't miss the sunset till it burns out the sky
You won't miss what you have till it's finally lost
But you don't miss a bastard when you're bearing his fucking cross

Blacklist, nothing but a blacklist
With friends like you, there's no need for enemies
With friends like you, there's no need for anything
Blacklist, you're nothing but a blacklist

Well, truth be told I'm a little bit gutted
I mean you were always a prick, but we still seemed to love you
We started this together, and it should've stuck
But there's no room for a useless, miserable fuck
Well, I know I was a cunt in the final days

You're on my blacklist, and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight
I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
Blacklist, blacklist

Blacklist, nothing but a blacklist
With friends like you, there's no need for enemies
With friends like you, there's no need for anything
Blacklist, you're nothing but a blacklist

I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck

You're on my blacklist, and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight

2019? :)

The slowest but most badass metalcore song I’ve heard.

New BMTH fans will never find us here

I've looking for this song for a *YEAR*

Actually my fav song on this album and this is probably their best album, instrumentals especially.

This is just as good or better than amo. Both are pretty tied, in my opinion. The amount of intensity this album sparks is high, but they do it in a way where you won’t forget about it. Crucify Me and Fuck are two prime examples.

Amo is a step forward for the band cuz they took huge risks that not too many bands would normally do and that’s one thing I like about that album. I also love the guest appearances from 2 icons (Dani Filth and Rahzel) and an electronic figure of today (Grimes).

All in all, I can’t really decide which album I like better: There is a Hell or amo.

Even though I'm a fan of their old stuff I still think this is their best album. This album had a great mix of a lighter sound and still having a heavy factor.

out of all their songs, this is my favourite no doubt, its just so sad its so unpopular, it deserves more recognition

BMTH me manque

I will become 100% emo if anyone can tell me of a band that has killer vibes like this

Architects

Is someone from 2019??

No..
😁

Am i the only one still listening to this?, this song is still 🌋🌋

Medicine...

Elia Spunelli rip

It's my medicine now after amo :D

La batería en esta canción es mortal/The drums in this song is deadly.

En todas sus canciones, Matt does a great job, amazing Drummer

13 y/o me thought it is the heaviest song I’ll ever have on my phone

When I first heard the song I loved it, so I tried learning it on guitar. I had 9’s at the time, this song was is in Drop G. You can only imagine how it sounded😂

It's a modified tuning actually. Drop A# with the A# tuned to G, so G F A# D# G C. A 12-60 set with the 60 swapped for an 80 should do the trick.

I forgot how good this song was

I love to come to the past

This is one of my favorite BMTH songs

2018 7w7

I don't even like heavy metal love rap but this song is fuckin Savage

"If you don't have something nice to say, don't say it."

3:16 is literally the same “solo” as the blessed with a curse solo. like legit the exact same notes for each beginnings of the solo, cant believe nobody noticed. the only difference is the rhythm guitar surrounding the solos

They’re similar but not that similar. But I can definitely hear where you are coming from

yeah they sorta copy themselves

I just noticed it now 😂

share this masterpiece

Getting a serious Wes Borland feel from the guitarist.

What the fuck is he even saying this is cancer music just death screams wtf

anthem.

This has solid Botch/ TDEP/Converge vibes. This style of metalcore/ mathcore is what BMTH should be doing.

eargasm

This long is like facing a God

AMINA KOYAYIMMMM!

This song should be included in the next John whick movie

This is entering djent territory

more like downtempo but yeee agreed

I bought new earbuds that have a bass booster so obviously the first thing I did was play this because of the beginning and holy fuck

Lingo get subs pussy

@TeamSesh97 SESH

ME TOOOO

3:30 is where the best part starts

I like three BMTHs stuff like There's a hell and there's a heaven, Sempiternal and That's the spirit.

Jimmy Gray same here as well as amo! <3

Amo is ehhh

onG
this song is so goddamn underrated. its one of the first bmth songs i heard, and still to this day one of my favourites.

best song on the album cant believe its not that popular

Idk if it's the BEST song on the album, but it definitely deserves more recognition

THEY NEED TO PLAY THIS LIVE

The best thing of living in Brazil is that I can sing this out loud and no one will ever know what I'm singing lmao

Blue Strawberry Exactly

Industrial Metal, I like it!

28/12/2016

Completely forgot about this song

Man...I swear at 0:47 the line about "I hope your queen was worth it...do you still serve her on your knees?" just reminds me a lot of Lemmy of Motorhead, IMO. Still really miss this ridiculously heavy version/style of BMTH.

This song has its own story
You can look up for it in the comments

It wasn't really to say it didn't have it's own story. The comment was to not only pay homage to Lemmy, but also, it was to compare Oli to a legend in the industry.

+B 111 the song is about their former guitarist, Curtis Ward.

I can't believe nobody said it yet: its about global warming. that line is referring to fossil fuels.

Sooooo good, my favorite album

i love the guitar in this so fucking much <3

It's sad that this song isn't as popular as it should be

Ally Fey 2 jams and a half

Zephy Nelson YES. that intro in particular wins me over

Should have been the lead single to this album

Surprised they never played it live.

@Delilah Skykes agreed

3:02 that's fucking sick

PEEEEEEEW with friends like you..... nanana

Sad I couldn't find a single video of them doing this song live

Mano essa época era foda

Jessica Reis 2004-2011 ❤️

Fodastico

best kind of music 😍

Guy from my school said that my bands are shit

me: U R ON BLACKLISTTTTTTTT

not if they don't find out

+Chellsea Sadler Mmm good idea

Just like that he's fucking dead and gone :)

Kill him, slowly and painfully <3

mijoczek jus every band in general is shit?? that doesnt even make sense, i feel like nobody has said that u but if they did than they must be a speical ed kid cause without bands they wouldnt be fucking music n btw why wudnt u jus say a guy from my school said that BMTH sucks. we all know that some random ass dude wudnt jus come up to u at school and say "hey you!!! even tho ive never ever seen u or talked to u ever but i jus need to say to u that bands jus fucking suck man"


lol yeah ok....

I told someone to commit suicide, and it has done

Amar esta canción👌💕

The best song period.

Amazing song,screams and instruments are on point and the lyrics are clever too

So just like that you're fucking dead and gone
You can only wear a crown of thorns for so long
We built an empire and you took the throne
But you built it from bayonets and sat there alone
I hope your queen was worth it,
Do you still serve her on your knees?
Because you sat when the world was at your feet,
Just slept while we lived the dream

You won't miss the water,
Till the river runs dry
You won't miss the sunset,
Till it burns out the sky
You won't miss what you have,
Till it's finally lost
But you don't miss a bastard,
When you're bearing his fucking cross

Blacklist
Nothing but a blacklist
With friends like you,
There's no need for enemies
With friends like you,
There's no need for anything

Blacklist
You're nothing but a blacklist

Well, truth be told
I'm a little bit gutted
I mean you were always a prick,
But we still seemed to love you
We started this together and it should have stuck
But there's no room for a useless, miserable fuck
Well I know I was a cunt in the final days
It just filled me with venom, filled me with rage
To see someone not give a shit,
Despite of all of this
I won't see you around, I couldn't give a fuck
I'd rather slit my wrists than keep in touch
You're on my blacklist and there's nothing left to say
We're finished breaking our bones, dragging dead fucking weight. ♡

+Anaisa Matos oh it Just kinda bothers me that people still don't know it's about him leaving the band because of his girlfriend.

@Isaac Frazier​ Oh well know I know what it is about, thanks.

+Anaisa Matos Welcome

I love the little heart at the end of those edgy lyrics lol

1.25 speed is godly

and .5 speed is satanic

makes sound like rest of songs in the album

1:28 especially this part. Sounds so good.

This song is amazing!!!

Fucking Amazing! The best track of this album..

Fuck yes

I really love this song

and I really love your profile picture

He's talking about jesus in this song? hahaha

+Tales Marteli Curtis Ward, their old guitarrist. He left the band bc of his girl.

+HIHisLife Wait I thought he left bc he has ear problems.

@zacky noorsyaif Nah. 

HIHisLife bullshit

I've listened to all albums by BMTH and I like that they've changed because I can choose what to listen on depending on my mood for example if I want to listen to something on the heavier side I will listen to Suicide Season and if I want to listen to something less heavy I can listen to That's The Spirit in my personal opinion =)

ZyndraZ hate to break it to you kid but u can literally say the same about every other band in this scene. its not like BMTH is unique. the only reason they r unique is their next record will be straight pop with no roots of thejr old sound. but id agree that other bands are even more diverse, some bands have records and songs WAYYY heavier than this AND they have songs that is bare-bones acoustic that sounds like it could be on the top 10

my thoughts Exactly, i have a wide range of interests and a large appreciation for variety and bmths entire discography works perfectly with that

ZyndraZ Same goes for literally any other band lol i hate when kids post shit like that, not noticing that mostly every band is dynamic

@Arnez Juggins this is better then sempiternal imo

Wow, I agree with this comment

Same guitar solo as blessed with a curse buds, why'd you lazy out on us there ay?

Literal art

LOL "RICK GRIMES"

Fuck Drake and Meek Mill beef Curtis and Oli beef was some shit.

damn i forgot that this was a diss song lol

Ruben Cavazos fill me in. I can't find anything about it

SO JUST LIKE THAT YOU'RE FUCKING DEAD AND GONE!🎵

do u feel that

I can feel it

+yousif MTv ugh! i'm just singing

+Warachara Upapong "That's the spirit".

Damn that album art is HD!

@Tomallgam3rz12 what i was thinking exactly

Love the sound from the guitars

@Duvan Coetzee Top string tuned to drop f***ing G!!!!!!! XD XD

I'd like BMTH to adopt THIS style again in their new album fs

+idkmiwi once you sellout, you never go back.

themusicguy no dude, they did sell out lol

idkmiwi sold out bruv

Miwitxu now try to listen to "Mantra"

This comment didn't age well

Best song ever from BMTH. That's all.

THIS NEEDS MORE FUCKIN' VIEWS M8!!!!!!!!!!

This is the heaviest track off the album! Me gusta :D

Depends on what your idea of heavy is, if it's just the lowest tuning and slowest constant breakdown then yeah but that's simple to do...

Why does this not have any views or comments? This was easily the best track off of the album, in my personal opinion.

Haha, thank you. I've made it a habit to add that whenever I expressing my thoughts. Internet and all.

+Jenniferbrat Because this video was only uploaded recently, duh.

+forfrosne Yeah yeah.

It's definitely one of my favorites off the album as well. Blacklist has a unique style to it, almost like a Hip Hop diss track rearranged into a beatdown à la BMTH.
