DevilDriver - The Axe Shall Fall Lyrics






This abomination won't see the end of days
Sit throne of lies, torn
By the voice up high
Death was only a dream
Not devastating disaster
The rights of passage
The past we can't alter, fuck you, you
And the horse that you rode in on, just sit there
And be silent as the grave
You've come out this time, smelling just like roses
I sit there, watch, while I drink my wine

The weight of your sins and the evil beneath us
Will surely drag you down,
The axe shall fall
On the one-winged angel, breaking the spell
would you break this fall?
For he, who sins against his kind
The axe shall fall

With a hollow heart and hollow eyes, a cry from the cross
Serpents in disguise, hearts of distrust is what we despise
I sit there watch and drink my wine

[Chorus]

  9. W.... k....

    When you're baked as fuck and you keep replaying the ending.

    Problem solved.

    N.... F....

    I use "Lopper for youtube" extension on chrome. You can set a section of the song that you choose to repeat as many times as you like... 3:23 on for me :)

  14. s.... s....

    pure funk breakdown groove at the end. I love it!

  15. d.... ....

    I love this outro!! It's a DevilDriver and Pink Floyd trainwreck!!

    d.... ....

    I always liked Aerosmith's Janie's Got a Gun outro too

    d.... ....

    So true I think of it the same for shure

  16. A.... ....

    The end of this song is a fucking masterpiece !!!

  17. M.... D....

    They need to make a 10 hour version of 3:24 onwards. Seriously, Devildriver need to make that bit more prevalent in the song. Its the same with the intro to End of The Line where they just forget it after the start. They need to reuse more of this awesomeness. 

    M.... D....

    Some seriously good guitar work

    M.... D....

    My favorite thing in music is when the band is so full of ideas that after a killer song, they take an insane riff, play it for 8 bars and just fade it out. Just to spite mediocracy and revel in excess. Just listen to future tense by sanctuary or binky by snarky puppy.

    M.... D....

    @Austen Reavey for rizzle

  18. o.... ....

    The ending is fucking stellar lol gotta love versatile metal bands

  19. J.... T....

  20. S.... C....

    No dislikes!!! \m/

  21. w.... a....

    HAHA damn you can throw it down on some dancing at the end of this song.

  22. J.... R....

    It's all about the sudden funk synth ending.

    J.... R....

    @Jason Ross that outro it's epic

    J.... R....

    The Comment Police I call it the best outro to a metal album ever.

    J.... R....

    Your right . That's the best outro not only in metal but all of music

    J.... R....

    I would like this a thousand times if I could! It's life changing good!

    J.... R....

    That gave it a classic feel.

  23. D.... D....

    Awesomely complex drumming.

  24. S.... c....

  25. X.... ....

    A. Love this song.
    B. I think it's awfully cute you somehow think this falls under Fair Use. In no way does it, but it's adorable that you think so.

  26. z.... ....

    epic end =)

  27. H.... ....

    3:24 onwards, fucking magical.
