Killswitch Engage - Define Love Lyrics






This venom spreads like infection
Poison our minds with misconceptions
The division of society
All in the name of ideology

Who are we to judge
How to define love

Love is not manipulation to control
All we've got, illuminating our souls
Who are we to judge and condescend
Compassion never leads to intolerance

Take a look at yourself and realize
Worth cannot be reduced or compromised

Who are we to judge
How to define love
Blinded by intolerance

Who can judge another's struggle, another's pain
Another's strength to overcome, comprehend and maintain

But you just can't see it
And it's hard to believe it
The way that you define love, is to lose your own

Who are we to judge
How to define love
Who are we to judge love

  1. A.... H....

    What in the absolute fuck. I didn’t even know this song existed and I’m the biggest killswitch fan ever. I literally waited and stared at the clock on Aug 15 to wait until it turned 12:00am on Aug 16 to listen to the new album and I didn’t even know this song was out. Wtf I’m pissed

  2. G.... A....

    Put this on Spotify!

  3. S.... F....

    The guitar tone on this song crushes anything they've done in the last 6 years wtf?

  4. B.... ....

    Adam d bringing the heat

  5. A.... R....

    Fall can't get here fast enough!!! Can't wait for their new album!!!!

  6. R.... ....

    Im not sure if this is an actual song cus they would ve posted on every social media .....they have not posted any thing about the new album I believe this fake......

    R.... ....

    RiffSlayer879 I think it's a session outtake that ended up on a compilation somewhere.

    R.... ....

    @Greg Merritt I figured as much . my bro told me it was on the b side of incarnate

    R.... ....

    It's a song recorded during Incarnate sessions, released as a Vinyl single for record store day 2018

  7. C.... P....

    when was this released? it's beautiful

  8. T.... M....

    De que album es? Esta super buena la canción

    T.... M....

    Es un EP Vinyl. Sólo Sacaron Una Canción.

    T.... M....

    Que mal ._.
    Se dice que su octavo album saldrá este año y que tendrá algunas colaboraciónes con Howard Jones

  9. M.... G....

    There is something about the passion in Jesse's lyrics. They are often abstract and can be applied in multiple situations and lives but he believes them so much. He screams and sings better thaqn anyone else I have ever heard. There are not many who canscream in tune and make their lyrics clearly heard. He is a genius in my opinion. This may just be KSE's best album. SO nice that at least one of my teenage hardcore metal bands still does it properly.

    M.... G....

    Kse is always quality track on all albums Thats why they my number 1 rockers

  10. j.... b....

    When will this be on spotify??

  11. B.... ....

    100 😊

  12. R.... e....

    Do love a bit of killswitch

  13. S.... A....

    Gotta respect kse for never going pop

    S.... A....

    Can u name some bands that went pop

    S.... A....

    @Elias Pedroza BFMV, ATR, for example

    S.... A....

    @Mario Gaeta Bullshit ATR new album is Back to roots. And BFMV's new gig is still pretty heavy. Get off the Glass BBQ Muppet .

    S.... A....

    @Elias Pedroza Bring Me The Horizon is an excellent example of going pop

    S.... A....

    Yeah All That Remains has definitely redeemed themselves their new album was heavy and kickass! But BMTR, Papa Roach, Shinedown and BFMV have definitely gone poppy. Hell even Asking Alexandria has gone softer but they don’t sound as bad lol

  14. D.... ....

    1:25 sounds like the chorus from Hymn of a broken man (times of grace) in fact I just feel like I'm listening to times of grace haha.

    D.... ....

    40% Times of Grace anyway =P

    D.... ....

    Tog, what a gift huh? Album is lights out

  15. M.... M....

    great rythm guitar work, wonder what i would sound like if Jesse just sang the verses instead of shouting them

  16. J.... R....

    This needs to get on Spotify.

    J.... R....

    Sadly it wont as it was a special release for Record Store Day. Fortunately i have the 7" single from that

    J.... R....

    Is it possible to upload this song somewhere for us with a link?

  17. C.... M....

    Awesome song

  18. k.... m....

    I will be very disappointed if kse turns into social justice warrior crap..I will drop them like a hot potato

    k.... m....

    stephen leger if you consider the lyrics of the 2000 album and Alive Or Just Breathing, and even Disarm The Descent and Incarnate, you’ll notice Jesse’s lyrics have always been about justice, unity, social divide, and all other related concepts.

    k.... m....

    I think KSE is not going to be SJW crap, i think Jesse sings about how ideologies are destroying our society, ideologies likes the SJW follows, but idk...

    k.... m....

    pretty sure he was a spook lover so its expected. doesn't mean the melodies are bad

  19. C.... H....

    That 1 dislike was clicked by mistake from rocking so hard. Your forgiven.

    C.... H....

    Cody Hon the best reasoning for any dislike on a video for a metal song!

    C.... H....

    stfu idiot

  20. K.... a....

    when will they put another my curse song ffs

    K.... a....

    Killswitch ali this is Jesse’s material, the raw side. It’s great.

    K.... a....

    far better than howards material imo

  21. D.... W....

    I hate the politics of this song. That’s the one thing I don’t like about Jessie as a lyricist, because he sing about societal issues a lot which I truly don’t care about.

    D.... W....

    And that is exactly the reason why I was always a fan of Jesse's work and probably the reason why I stopped listening to Killswitch when he left, rather political than "gf dumped and cheated on me" bullshit lyrics

    D.... W....

    Dude, I'm not sure why you're singling out Jesse as Howard wrote about social issues a lot. Killswitch Engage has always had songs about society and the tribulations of community. I'd argue most of their music is about uplifting each other and one's self. It's all positive music brother.

    You can dislike the song or the band but to act like this is something new.... This has always been KSE lol

    D.... W....

    Most metal is about politics or concepts relating to it. Are you not a fan of metal?

    D.... W....

    And that is why this world is going to shit. Because nobody seems to give a fuck

    D.... W....

    You have interest in the world you live in? I think you are the kind of person those lyrics are aimed at. People who don't care about society and act like they're not part of it are going to be detrimental to society. Sort it out ffs. You drag the rest of us down

  22. c.... v....

    They should’ve put this on Incarnate. I love the album but I think this would’ve made it better.

    c.... v....

    In comparison, it's hard to say its better than anything on incarnate. Obv my opinion

  23. T.... W....

  25. D.... O....

    D.... O....

    Daniel Ojeda their new album but it's not released in the normal album. It came out on a special disk they released on world record day.

  26. A.... R....

    Fucking love this song!!! One of their best in my opinion.
