Entombed - Midas In Reverse Lyrics






The open road
Spoils there for the taking
Lose all dead load
Leave your abode
Grade up in the making
This you've been told
As much as one
Can find feed relentless greed
No bother disregard
Just get more than you need

Next thing you know
You're riding in a hearse
Those struggles
Turned to shit
All of a sudden you're
King Midas in reverse

Shadow howlin'
One last time
Reaper scowling
Devoured lost in time
Dead age Dawning
Lay to waste
Down you're falling
Hellfire embraced

The road is closed
No pass no way back there
Path undisclosed

What you don't know
Betrayal this you will bear
Eternal ghost
Now that you're left behind lost all you hold dear
Redemption sacrifice worth none you're stuck right here

For all you know
You're riding in a hearse
Those struggles turned to shit
All of a sudden you're
King Midas in reverse

Shadow howlin'
One last time
Reaper scowling
Devoured lost in time
Dead age dawning
Lay to waste
Down you're falling
Hellfire embraced

Now you have slipped
At last
The bonds of time
The wasted years of the past
Are not undone

You will find
There are other times
Other lives
Beyond that veil of death

All of a sudden you're
King Midas in reverse

Shadow howlin'
One last time
Reaper scowling
Devoured lost in time
Dead age dawning
Laid to waste
Down you're falling
Hellfire embraced

  10. D.... S....

    como se nota la falta de alex hellid

  11. J.... V....

    Not bad... but not great either.

    J.... V....

    Like everything since Nicke left, not bad but not great

  12. m.... ....

    Glad to ear such an old-school crawling riff behind LG Petrov!
    When this rotten sound was invented, such riff was fresh and new...
    but 25 years after, it's more about exhuming bones and dust and awakening some rotten zombies - what could better fit to this music?

  13. R.... F....

    Not a huge Entombed fan, but this track is decent.

    R.... F....

    It took about a year for them to grow on me. Now I love them.

  14. I.... ....

    3dbirdie and Morbidous listen to Dismembers EP "Pieces from around 1992 and then listen the first min of this tune.

  15. d.... f....

    very good \m/

  16. I.... ....

    Wouldnt you know it. Always rated better than Dismember and when D finally throws in the towel, these guys go ther and steal the Dismembersound. Well better Entombed than in last 15 yrs at least

    I.... ....

    +Insiktsfull Do your homework. Entombed always were the ones who invented the Sound, Dismember owe them everything.

    I.... ....

    +Insiktsfull Entombed stealing Dismember sound??? I think is the other way round...

    I.... ....

    What makes you think that? Dismembers Debut came out after Left hand path, with Nicke Anderson playing all the Guitar Solos and some Drum-tracks on it. He even designed the Dismember-Logo.... but in the end, who cares. Two great bands. \m/

  17. A.... S....

    pure awesomeness!

  18. c.... ....

    My favorite death metal band.

    c.... ....

    And wolverine blues was released in 93...

    c.... ....

    @HueyHangover i bought it summer '94 after i saw the video on MTV

    c.... ....

    @vomitedshit Wolverine Blues- Oct. 4 1993
    Heartwork- Oct. 18 1993
    Two classic and seminal death metal records released within 2 weeks of each other.

    c.... ....

    @cabalofdemons i didn't buy heartwork until '94 after i heard an unleashed song on the radio and thought it was carcass

    c.... ....

    @vomitedshit Best mistake ever. I like Unleashed. Death metal was treading high in the 90s.

  19. R.... S....

    Tomara que o Mano do Krow continue na Banda.

  20. b.... b....
