Overkill - The Wait/New High In Lows Lyrics






"Aw, you up against it now mother fuckers
You think you're big time? You gonna fucking die
Big time! You ready? Here come the pain!"
Al Pachino "Carlito's Way"

Waiting for my heart to stop, I hear it beating in the dark
It keeps me up here, where I lay
A constant source of aggravation for an overactive imagination
Keeps me awake, here where I lay
I will wait

Sizing up a brand new rope to use it now would be a joke
To hang me up here where I wait
Turning on the light that blinds me to make it easier to find me
And light me up here where I wait
I will wait

Erase the pain of what I know
Not the smell of mercy on me
I'm reaching down into a new high in lows
Not the smell of mercy on me

Whats been doin' where ya comin' from?
Where you been hiding? Been missing more than some
Took a ride when I should'a walked
Got there way to fast
Should'a listened 'stead of talked
First become the last

Waiting for my heart to stop, I hear it beating in the dark
It keeps me up here where I wait
But I will wait

Not the smell of mercy on me
New high in lows
Not the smell of mercy on me

    Carlitos way on song intro and live using the Scarface theme music for their intro leads me to believe that they like them some Pachino, don't we all?

  3. K.... Z....

  19. M.... B....

    took me ages to find this piece of art!!! cheers mate

  20. S.... D....

    i believe its from Scarface. Or some other Pacino movie.

    S.... D....

    maybe Carlitos Way

    S.... D....

    Yup. Carlito’s Way. I’ve been wondering what those first few words were since this album came out, and I finally just went and looked it up (“Oh, you up against me now...”)

  21. D.... ....

    i cant stand wfos mix. the guitars sound like shit

    D.... ....

    Rather bass line sound like shit, rest is ok.

  22. L.... ....

    Well thank you. :D

    But I don't think it's really fair to say that, considering the content of this video isn't mine. That should be more directed towards Overkill for just being awesome, not towards the guy who took their song, their picture, slapped text on the picture, and made it into a video. :P

  23. L.... ....

    No problem at all. I know what that's like. My dad had just about all his CD's stolen repeatedly when he was younger.

  24. W.... t....

    thank you linkmaster222!!!!! this cd was stolen a long time ago from me & i still cannot find a new copy anywhere.

    W.... t....

    Idk if you're still looking for a copy but I just got mine on Amazon and this album is phenomenal!

  25. s.... m....

    Love, Love, this song, Love, Love this band! They are the best band Ive seen Live in Cleveland @ Peabodies! Best show ever! Overkill baby you rock !!!

  26. t.... ....

    Carlito's Way

  27. m.... ....

    @mr198221

  28. m.... ....

    I didn't get "The electric age," but can say this is a better album. "T.E.E." seems like they tried too hard for heaviness, where this is fast, crisp, & crunchy. 'Supersonic Hate," & "They eat their young" are 2 of the fastest songs you'll ever hear. This album 'destroys' start to finish without being 'over the top' heavy as 'T.E.E.' Does that make sense?

  29. m.... ....

    someone tell me from what movie is that opening quote? And do they really say pussy?

  30. D.... ....

    Like the smell of pussy on me!

  31. H.... ....

    SICK!!!!!!!!!!!! AS FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  32. L.... F....

    your retarded,,this is great but Electric Age is awesome also

  33. L.... ....

    This blows away the electric age, they need this line up back.

  34. L.... ....

    @decorativesplatter No problem. :D

  35. d.... ....

    omfg thanks so much!
