Lamb Of God - King Me Lyrics






I saw the world through the lens of a pinhole camera
I saw nothing. I was blind.
In between a black hole and a super nova is where you’ll find me
Imploding and expanding simultaneously
No longer blind.
I’d been running away for so long
When I finally caught myself there wasn’t much left.
The script’s last page is blank
And the medicine is gone.
A sick monster, a twister of dark matter
On a heavier trip than you can comprehend
A tornado trying to mend the life it shattered
Waiting for nothing to begin.
A flat line, my insides are turning out.
King Me is killing me.
I keep walking past the places I was born in
Now their faces are blank, shiny, and dead
I don’t recognize a thing, I can’t recall them
A closed book that I can never read again.
A flat line, my insides are turning out.
The lights fade, this final war starts now.
King Me is killing me.
All of that is ending now for I have arisen
Survived myself somehow, dead and imprisoned
I’m fighting to live if I am to see the day
I swear I’ll never sleep again
I am no man’s slave.
I wanted the fog to lift but I was living in a cloud
Nostalgia is grinding the life from today
The present always dies in future memories
And King Me is killing me
Cut wide open and bleeding to death for all to see.
King Me is killing me.
He’s killing me.
He won’t kill me.
I won’t let him kill me.
He won’t kill me.

  1. d.... ....

    Remember: When life gets you down, you’re the king.

  2. k.... ....

    First time I heard these guys was 2004 during Slipknot's subliminal verses tour. First metal concert I ever went to, and still the best one

  3. F.... ....

    I get Ghost Walking vibes, anyone else? I mean those few parts sounds pretty similar.

  4. D.... B....

    This is the worst, most corny of all LoG. I mean, "you can find me between a black hole and a supernova"? Add in the Pink Floyd soul choir and cheesy epic keyboards and voila... you have a PEICE OF SHIT.

  5. D.... P....

    2019 ? ? ? and on...

  6. M.... ....

    Metro exodus спиздила начало у lamb of god только я это один заметил

  7. L.... C....

    Spiritual death before you reach higher self->(king me)

  8. J.... W....

    Sabbath >Slayer>Lamb of God

  9. Z.... B....

    I dedicated this song to a fallen friend who was a big lamb of god fan. Gone too soon and too early. I'll always miss you bud. I hope this is the song you would have wanted to be remembered by.

  10. X.... ....

    my VW Polo turned into a Dragster after 4:55.



    Fuck, I am not that much a Metal guy but this is fucking powerfull af. Makes also goosebumps. Intense bro... very intense

  11. D.... ....

    I can't believe Chris is no longer with the band.... it was a good run.

    D.... ....

    He got in a motorcycle accident. Fucked up his feet no doubt.

  12. O.... S....

    1:45 is the top of the top

  13. R.... A....

    Got the goosebumps from head to toe. Such a solid track.

  14. J.... J....

  22. H.... N....

    2019?lol..

  23. s.... s....

    There are things man will never understand and that is God, when you stayed in the wilderness like the Harry man, and this knowledge is bestow upon you. The world is a living hell, and you just want to be with your father that created you. Because when you meet God, you just want to be with him.

  24. p.... ....

    becoming one with yourself and your darkest desires. then experiencing the pain of your selfabsorption in the last moment of your existence when you meet the singularity. beautiful

  25. S.... V....

    Incredible song one of my all time favourites

  26. F.... ....

    this song brought me back to life

  27. U.... s....

    If u ever been to rehab they teach u about this thing called king baby syndrome. Look it up and the lyrics to this song will make perfect sence. No further interpretation will be necessary

  28. m.... b....

    1:44 start

  29. s.... ....

    This is song has so much power it actually made me cry

  30. s.... n....

    The lyrics of this song are the best description of having an addiction I've ever heard Randy hits the nail on the fucking head truly brilliant!!

    s.... n....

    Yeah dude, Randy sounds like he's crying at the end of the song. Pure fucking metal when the vocalist feels what was written. It's not always about headbanging & rocking out. Sometimes it's pure, raw emotion that makes the difference.

  31. K.... A....

    I can't believe this song isn't more recognized for its greatness. There should have been a music video

  32. J.... S....

    One of the best metal songs of all time. Intense. Randy is majestic to the voices. Sensual and powerful. The violin arrangements give it a lot of epic. Perfect song. I am looking forward to seeing you on Slayer's farewell tour.

  33. B.... D....

    Love this song \mm/

  34. N.... C....

    This is my favorite song from Lamb Of God. Gives me chills every time. My goto song.

  35. C.... A....

    King Me is killing Me

  36. A.... P....

    this is a real martyr

  37. R.... S....

    The ending of that song makes me wanna tear up everytime. So powerful.

  38. b.... ....

    New SSJ1 theme

  39. T.... E....

    This sounds so familiar, my favorite.

  40. T.... B....

    Support Modern Metal here!!: https://youtu.be/5V_cpj_CwPA

  41. S.... ....

    3:46 fucks up my neck! Brutally heavy!

  42. D.... P....

    I want this song to play as the rapture closes in

  43. O.... ....

    "the lens of a pinhole camera"
    ... But, but, a pinhole camera doesn't have a lens, it has a pinhole instead, that's why we call it that *triggered* xD

    Great effing song btw!!

    O.... ....

    "I saw nothing. I was blind"
    Maybe that was the point?

  44. M.... ....

    That outro is the best metal outro in metal

  45. A.... R....

    Hear the ending ....best of extreme endings

  46. N.... G....

    Esplêndido

  47. S.... M....

    "The present always dies in future memories."

    Mind = blown
    How did he combine the 3 tenses?

  48. G.... ....

    The lyrics are kinda like the Macbeth play. (Spoilers?) If you think about it he said he was nothing but he then became the king, King Me. And then the lyrics are about killing others randomly, like how the King, Macbeth is trying to cover how he became the king by killing people who have ideas. I dont know this may be just me.

  49. M.... G....

    Do you think when Pewdiepie cums in Marzia's mouth she claps twice and gargles "sperm review!"

  50. s.... s....

    wow one of my all time favorites of LOG

  51. B.... 8....

    I know I'm late but this song blew me the fuck away!!!

  52. D.... I....

    Haven't listened to this song in so long, then after metal injections video on songs artists are most proud of i had to come back to it after randy said this was his. Gives new appreciation for it

  53. H.... ....

    Randy said this is the song he is most proud of

    H.... ....

    I want to see them do more orchestral/ theatrical stuff like this. I understand they are experts at the Virginia southern metal sound, but after Sturm und Drang, I think they'd have pretty good success with another politically heavy/ dystopian/ orchestral sounding track list.

    I think they could do it without sounding at all like Otep.

    H.... ....

    Maybe because it's about coming clean

    H.... ....

    Can't deny that.

    H.... ....

    As he should. It's their best.

    H.... ....

    I honestly hope they play that live someday!

  54. J.... S....

    This song has so much emotion poured into it, it really displays the struggle with oneself. I love it

  55. M.... ....

    Unbelievable lyrics...so poetic.

  56. b.... ....

    I saw the world through the lens of a pinhole camera.
    I saw nothing
    I was.....blind
    In between a black hole and a supernova is where you'll find me.
    Imploding and expanding simultaneously
    No longer blind..??

    **EDIT: I just realized the lyrics are in the description. Whoops! Damn kids with your computers and rap music

  57. r.... t....

    Back vocals at the end give me chills.

  58. G.... L....

    Therapy.

  65. �.... �....

    I gained 6 kilograms after listening to this song.

  66. A.... S....

    After listening to this song,I can't listen to anything else anymore! There is SO MUCH emotion and anger in this,and I just can't switch the mood with any other song.I simply take off my headphones and shut the fuck up!

  67. b.... R....

    best song i ever heard in a while ...

  68. M.... S....

    This is my favorite song of all time, and it has been for 3 years with absolutely no sign of being dethroned.

  69. a.... e....

    \m/ Badass man, I fucking love this album.

  70. 1.... ....

    I love the opera singing at the end, something about that coupled with the melody of the song just makes it very powerful.

  71. 7.... ....

    I died.

  72. T.... B....

    Love this song 🤘🏻

  73. D.... C....

    your channel name is awesome

  74. k.... ....

    king me is killing me, f*ck yeah

  75. O.... V....

    and yet not a single live performance of this song

    O.... V....

    How do you think it is possible to sing this live unless he just sing one song?
    He is not going to just sing one song in live performance so it is not possible to sustain this kind of vocal performance

    O.... V....

    But if it's done , it would be the most epic live song in modern metal history

    O.... V....

    They finally play it live. Its on yotube i think

  76. c.... ....

    Amo de paixão,salve pros BR

  77. M.... A....

    Who is the girl singing in the background?

  79. z.... b....

  80. F.... ....

    On my dying day, I want this song to be the last thing I hear. I've never been so moved by a song in my life. This is the definition of art

    F.... ....

    SuperCheese03 the same

    F.... ....

    Dont you want a more....positive note to depart this reality on?

  87. M.... B....

    3:47 best part MOSH!!!!!!

  88. e.... j....

    I like to think Randy coughed up a gallon of blood after recording this. Best metal vocal performance I've ever heard.

    e.... j....

    Randy is the man!! He stole the Suicide Silence tribute show with You Only Live Once!!! RIP Mitch, but Randy killed it

    e.... j....

    LOG is what all big metal bands aspire to be. They've released legendary track after legendary track, and keep original.

  89. S.... P....

    PHENOMENAL song.

  90. W.... T....

    Sounds like a heavy metal version of RED

  91. D.... ....

    what's sad is. is this describe me

    D.... ....

    me too dawg

  92. F.... ....

    The intro is cheesy imo but everything else is fucking amazing.

  93. F.... ....

    The intro is cheesy imo but everything else is fucking amazing.

  94. V.... B....

    SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT IT MEANS!

    V.... B....

    Pretty sure its about how in an effort to be in the right you must stop people that are trying to do the same thing but with different answers. You have to have it so their answers are the wrong ones or else your answers are. and because so many people have to do this against each other the effort to king me is killing me. No one will ever be "right" because everyone else would be wrong. And what I mean by "right" is, correct, moral, the word of god. Whatever you need to do to feel self righteous. That renders someones way of life, false and invalid, untruthful etc. if you ruthlessly claim validity over other people you are damaging the way they look at their beliefs. In other words you literally hurt their faith. This tends to make people feel self conscious and even depressed. Narcissists are the worst offenders. They tend to make the people around them feel inferior. And to help them the narcissist will tell them more correctness and make it even worse. Like a tornado trying to mend

    V.... B....

    personally i think he is talking about a war within ones self your self destructive ways and closed mindedness to your own ways will kill you

    V.... B....

    +Ben Davis You are correct. Many song lyrics from great bands like LoG are written to be vague enough that each listener can take their own interpretation from it, but this song is not like that.

    Anybody who has suffered from the inner workings of their own mind, anybody who has seen their life crumbling around them with no one to blame but themselves and their own selfish nature will understand this song all too well.

    V.... B....

    "1. Survived myself somehow, dead and imprisoned
    2. I'm fighting to live if I am to see the day I swear I'll never sleep again
    3. I am no man's slave.
    4. I wanted the fog to lift but I was living in a cloud
    5. (a) Nostalgia is grinding the life from today, (b) the present always dies in future memories"

    1. He survived his battle with himself over addiction to drugs, left to be imprisoned in his life long battle with overcoming the urges to relapse.
    2. The majority of this entire album speaks of opiates and internal conflict, so generally leans towards him wanting to see himself in a new light, and won't sleep again until he finds it.
    3. Realizing you're a slave to your own substance abuse is very, very eye opening. And going as far as to say that you are no man's slave (including yourself) is to throw down your habit and everything tied to it in order to free yourself.
    4. Living in a fog is almost always referred to when having cloudy judgement from all addiction. Love, sex, attention, drugs, alcohol, tobacco, etc. When you realize you lead the lifestyle of an addict it's hard to overcome when you are still truly "living in the cloud" of said addiction. Still surrounded by what is tied to the self you are trying to change.
    (my favorite, which has helped me in recovery on numerous occasions)
    5. Nostalgia grinding the life from today... When you are working or at school and can't seem to get memories of things that make your past seem bright out of your head. The present always dies in future memories, is the moment during your nostalgia that you realize your brain is still under the permanent influence that drugs leave on your brain. You imagine your life in a light without getting high and wasting away through dope, and see that the future can be brighter than what you have now if you put forth the effort.

    Obviously I have a history of addiction and drug abuse, so this is truly what this speaks to me. But it is always up to interpretation. :)

    V.... B....

    Wow man. this was great. I hope you are keeping well.

  95. S.... J....

    If u don't like this shit, all I can say to u is...  *Fuck u*         _LAMB OF GOD_

  96. h.... ....

    LoG needs moar of this stuff

    h.... ....

    Log doesn't have a bad song, like at all

  97. M.... S....

    Definitely a Mark Morton Song. I can gurantee that. He is well known to write completely out of the box song in each album. i.e - Descending, remorse is for the dead. MM is probably one of the most influential metal artist of all time. He brings jazz and other elements into metal. Truly masterpiece.......

    M.... S....

    Mohammed Sadiq this song was written in regards to Randy's alcohol addition he suffers with

    M.... S....

    Justin Cole he obviously is talking musically not lyrically

    M.... S....

    Two of my personal favourite songs, along with this one!! 🤘🤘
