Gojira - Backbone Lyrics






Indestructible
On this rock I lie
But I'm alive for good
And I just free myself now
From all what was wrong
Break the unbreakable

All the stars
Fearlessly bright
They call me out there
Order me to face the wind
My structure's alive,
My body's on the way
Don't bow down
Before the walls
Of fear and madness
They try to counter me
And strike me down
To the ground again

Inexhaustible
The strength of fire
Is running through me
Spine like beam of light
What mortal could ever
Break this force
Unconstrained
I see at last
My backbone straighten
Thy serpent made of bones
Finally rise up
From the ground awaken

Beat your feet
On the ground now, go!

    1:12 thats so black metal

  82. B.... ....

    At 3:25 the synergy between instruments is insane. Drum beat is the best for that riff I swear

  83. K.... K....

    This song sounds like Slipknot's thing

  84. C.... F....

    Dear metal community, please help me find more riffs like 1:12 and 1:21 ! Thank you so much!

    C.... F....

    search video Stuff gojira does on YouTube
    You are welcome

  85. T.... H....

    Gojira has so many great elements in their music. It's quite rare now to find a band that can maintain their own sound yet progress over the years. Awesome!

  86. M.... �....

    I will sue this band because I just broke my neck because of this song.

  87. S.... ....

    I don't know why but 1:13 and 1:41 just doesn't sound very good to me. It almost reminds me of the shitty kind of death metal.

    S.... ....

    no it doesn't because it's more black metalish and has actual depth to it.

  88. R.... T....

    Don't listen to this while shaving....

  89. T.... Q....

    Had to come back and listen to this. I think Born Of Ire are the first band I've found who do triplets better than Gojira

  90. K.... B....

    if your a metal person n this fucking song is not in your top five favorite metal songs ever i don't trust u as a human being..

  91. S.... ....

    THAT RIFFFFF DAAAMN

  92. V.... V....

    So much Morbid Angel influence. Pretty good song though.

  93. n.... ....

    powerful song

  94. J.... S....

    I lose my mind at 2:00 every time

  95. K.... T....

    Sounds as if it was recorded in a fuckin' airplane hangar full of amplifier heads and cabinets! :O
