Parkway Drive - Sleight Of Hand Lyrics






No comfort
Fear, in the face of the unknown
Born to die in a lonely world
Hostility, breeds within the void
Left by the loss of understanding
Hatred, the true face of ignorance
Force-fed to the masses with the promise of salvation
Knowledge controlled, power withheld
In the name of one, let all blood spill
There is no god, that could love this world
I find no comfort
In a life lived on my knees
No comfort
Devine judgement, I could never believe
No comfort
I could never believe
To live a life without regret
Is it not enough
To love, and to be loved
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing lasts
Superstition rules in the land of the weak
Fear, in the face of the unknown
Born to die in a lonely world
Hostility, breeds within the void
Left by the loss of understanding
Hatred, the true face of ignorance
Force-fed to the masses with the promise of salvation
Knowledge controlled, power withheld
In the name of one, let all blood spill
There is no god
That could love this world
I find no comfort

  1. a.... m....

    i find no car parks

  2. n.... f....

    these guys are fucking awesome maxed it out man feeling this kind of music atm

  3. J.... M....

    I respectfully disagree. My God takes the weak and makes them strong. I do find comfort. Sorry that you refuse.

    J.... M....

    Jacob Miller it shut the fuck up

  4. y.... p....

    I find no comfort in the fault of man. Man that has built itself around arrogance.

  5. C.... R....

    For god so love the world he gave his only begotten son that whoever believe in him shall not perish but have ever lasting life. John 3:16. And thats not my opionion. Thats the word pf the living god. Inspired by the holy spirit to be written in the beginning was the word and the word was with god and the word god

    C.... R....

    Carter Rempel The fact that you had to refer to a man made scripture still means it's an opinion, since there are so many different variations of "the word of God", ergo what you've just quoted is an opinion, not factual.

  6. p.... ....

    I find no comfort!! Fuck yeah

  7. L.... W....

    Horizons- they got the flow right, blended lyrics and music together, but each on it's own lacked.
    Atlas- Lyrics are spectacular, but instrumentals tend to lack, perhaps border on basic.
    Ire- instruments were spot on, but lyrics lacked passion and the deepness we saw in Atlas.

    Reverence- brought all 3 together, not in the way we thought of, but in the way we needed.

  8. p.... g....

    This is one of those songs to this day that just fuel me with motivated power.

  9. D.... ....

    They are too woke.

  10. S.... ....

    This shit gives me a god damn boner, man.

  11. p.... ....

    Str8 in the butt

  12. p.... ....

    Damn this guitar brings goosebumps down my spine; electric soundtrack. No comfort!! Fuck yeah

  13. B.... ....

    PD never plays this live but its such a banger

  14. C.... ....

    NO COMFORT

  15. t.... m....

    No where near as good as "The void"......said nobody ever

  16. T.... H....

    To be honest, who gives a fuck if there are atheist themes in this song? surely "art" is an expression, and clearly a large populous like it. Just like there are are large population that are atheist. So fuck off with the hate? It is a good song. Thanks PwD

  17. A.... N....

    This is a winter song for sure

  18. C.... W....

    How about us agnostic people, anyone else here like me?

  19. V.... ....

    I Believe in God and always will and this song is cool to me mainly cause of the guitar

    V.... ....

    Dont loose faith bro

  20. x.... ....

    That fucking guitar rift gives me chills man

  21. w.... ....

    Soooooo many edgelords here 😂😂

  22. S.... A....

    Si mes voisins sont trop bruyants 😏
    If my neighboors are too noisy, I play this 😏

  23. 0.... ....

    1:51 - 2:17 That riff though 🎸

  24. A.... C....

    I'm a Christian yet I like this song. The guitar work just makes me overlook its message

  25. 3.... ....

    What a shitty song lyrically. you think there's not a God?sorry, but Atheism is single-handedly the most ignorant belief system somebody could have. Agnosticism or deism I can see honestly. But if there wasn't a cause to our existence, none of you would exist. As GK Chesterton said: "If there were no God, there would be no atheist."

    3.... ....

    32NOBAMA that last sentence is one of the greatest things I have ever heard

  26. J.... S....

    This is rosenburg,... PLEASE SHUT THE FUCK UP BEFORE I FIND YOU AND BEHEAD YOU WITH A CHAINSAW YOU FUCK!!!!

  27. P.... D....

    Am I the only open minded Deist here?

  28. M.... ....

    This ist still the MOST awesome song ever!! 1:51 is so Freaking Amazing!

  29. D.... M....

    i have the 1000 like 😄 best song

  30. L.... S....

    The baring of the soul.. i die daily.

  31. M.... H....

    This song go hard

  32. k.... c....

    Buy New Water Bed From IKEA For 389,99$
    No such thing as "No Comfort"

    k.... c....

    cuz he cant afford it

    k.... c....

    Oh, it doesnt talk at all about physical comfort. Hope you get it, tho

    k.... c....

    Oh, you don't say?

  33. S.... ....

    DEVINE JUDGEMENT, I COULD NEVER BELIEVE!!!

  34. A.... G....

    " there is no god that could love this world " ... Real shit parkway

  35. M.... M....

    no comfort

  36. A.... ....

    the beginning is numbing.

  37. t.... d....

    greatest fucking song you (PWD) have ever made!! ON FKN POINT 👌

  38. O.... G....

    On the fence with believing in a God, and will probably always will be. Anyhow, I don't think this song is an attack on God necessarily, but more of an attack on religions as an institution. If there is an omniscient and omnipotent god, I don't see how it could approve of this world in its current state. Anyhow, anyone who uses the Bible as a foundation for belief is gullible, although that shouldn't take away from the fact that the Bible has some information to lead a better life.

    O.... G....

    +snap peas pretty spot-on

    O.... G....

    that's what the song is about and yet we have people arguing about whether god is real or not in the comments lol

    O.... G....

    Most of the people commenting are probably 13-25 years old considering this is Parkway Drive and they're arguing like anti-social teenagers who need to vent on the internet

  39. D.... ....

    Every song has its own meaning to each individual.. do we all not think differently to begin with? Reading the comments below we are no better than what the song refers to, the government masses trying to force opinions on each other, as each of you commenting is trying to force his or her opinion on one another. Enjoy the song for what it means to you. Life is a lesson, you learn it when you're through. You can not have true free will without a balance of good and evil, evil is necessary in this life lesson, so stop complaining and learn to overcome... and enjoy a song full of truth about the deception or "the sleight of hand" that takes place in this world we live in.

    D.... ....

    +Dannerp13 well said man

    D.... ....

    Dannerp13 👏👏👏👏

  40. J.... H....

    no comfort!!!

  41. S.... ....

    As a Muslim, is it considered haraam listening to this? This really pumps me up at the gym tho.. Not lyrics wise, instrumentals just go effin hard!

    S.... ....

    Not at all. It's music. Enjoy it as you will! (:

    S.... ....

    +PyroMania61 it's all about the lyrics mate , if it has anti god (religious) meanings then you'd better not to listen to and find onother song with a better meaning , but music wise scholers got different oppenions about it ...

    S.... ....

    +PyroMania61 it is not haram -.-

    S.... ....

    bacon, beer and pwd. perfect combo

  42. N.... H....

    This song always reminds me of the ending fight scene in Fury. They just sound like they should go together

  43. z.... ....

    Too the nipple hard atheist( arrogance is your perfect fashion) it's about how God doesn't find any amusement in today's world. I don't blame "him"

    z.... ....

    +Cam Neily " only a fool says there is no God" words from people like you is like piss in urinal

    z.... ....

    god is my butt buddy

    z.... ....

    +zach

    "Hatred, the true face of ignorance, forcefed to the masses with the promise of salvation"

    "I find no comfort with a life lived on my knees... devine judgement, I could never believe"

    "Superstition rules in the land of the weak. Nothing lasts forever"

    I think the lyrics are pretty clear.

    z.... ....

    I try to stay respectful to what other individuals believe. But to say that someone is 'stupid', for not believing in God, is ridiculous. I don't mean to sound like every other skeptic, but we have no sound proof that he exists. And I know, that's why it's called faith. I say we all just keep our beliefs to ourselves, and be accepting of others no matter what they may choose to believe.

    z.... ....

    yep, im with ya on that. but people have a bad habit of putting their two cents in where it is not needed.

  44. K.... C....

    Im Agnostic which means im in the middle I think there is no proof to prove good is real or not I think he's saying God shouldn't like this world....But anyway I think Sleepwalker,Wildeyes or Swing are better. 

    K.... C....

    Not trying to tell you your beliefs, or rather lack there of, but agnosticism and atheism are not two separate entities. You can be an agnostic atheist, simply meaning you lack belief in a deity, but ultimately say you do not know, or you could be a gnostic atheist and say I know there is no god.

  45. D.... C....

    rules. no more comments needed.

  46. J.... A....

    fucking can't get enough of this guitar work. 

    J.... A....

    Yeeees I know man, that riff at 1:50 gives me chills everytime.

  47. B.... P....

    While I'm neither a believer or an atheist, I think this song is spot on. Plus I don't think he said in the song that he doesn't believe in god. I think it's more about the fault of human beings more so then god itself. Hard to believe in god when you just have to look at people and lose faith.

  48. A.... A....

    Am I the only atheist here?

    A.... A....

    +Erick Souza (ErickBR12) satanists are atheists .they do not actually worship Satan,it even believe in satan,but see him as a symbol.Satanism ,for the most part is a practice of self fulfilment.

    A.... A....

    Andy Almendarez nope.

    A.... A....

    My atheist brotha

    A.... A....

    Atheist gang

  49. P.... M....

    although I'm chritstian, I love this, Parkway Drive <3

  50. J.... d....

    deepest song, love it

  51. m.... s....

    spoiler alert! 3:25

    m.... s....

    marguess smith I relate all my life on this part

  52. N.... O....

    Winston definitely is an Atheist after writing this song, if he wasn't before this album.  I remember reading an article when he talked about all the song meanings for Atlas a couple years ago and he said he wanted to thank Hatebreed and Slayer for the influence to write the song.  The best lyric in my humble opinion is "Superstition rules in the land of the weak." 

    N.... O....

    being influenced by slayer doesn't necessary mean he is an atheist, the lead singer Tom Araya is catholic, but the song itself could interpreted in many different ways, one could be there is no deity, or that this world is so fucked up that there is no way that God could love it or control it, I personally have no idea of what this song means to Winston, but music and poetry interpretations differ from the each individual's analysis

  53. E.... ....

    No comfort

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

    No Comfort.

  55. f.... ....

    I love PWD favorite band of all time. Literally like 90% of all their songs. With that said I believe in God. Everyone saying "how can a God love this world". God created the world and got it spinning and made life. Then he sat back and gave humanity free will to do whatever you want. He saves those who ask. At least thats what my bible teaches. But anyways back to the song. I feel bad about the lyrics and I wont try to interpret the lyrics to suit my lifestyle. I think this song does attack religion, but the beat is sick so I listen to it anyway.

    f.... ....

    fbodieslive god is a made up character made up by the weak to explain what they don't understand.

    f.... ....

    God made the world, set it spinning, and knew everything that would ever happen. He is the mover of all things. Every cause and effect, every "decision" you would ever make, every death that would ever occur, every judgement to be cast upon each individual was set in stone before those individuals even existed. I see no free will in this. How could you do other than what God knows is going to happen? You cannot, your fate was set before you began. You, apparently, will be going to Heaven. I, to Hell, as I do not believe.

    If you knew every single thing that would happen as a result of your actions, and you had the power to do anything, you would be responsible for everything. To then dish out reward and punishment to those actions that you put into effect, knowing them perfectly before they even existed, makes no sense. Only a sadistic being would do this. Yet since this being was all knowing, it would be aware of it's own sadistic intentions, and engage in them anyways. If such a being exists, you should be terrified of Him.

    How long before He casts you out of Heaven while you spend an eternity with him, like he did with Satan and the other fallen angels which he knew was going to happen the before he even allowed Satan to exist? In this eternity, when does He decide it is time for Him to engage in another little game of dishing out reward and punishment to beings that need not exist, when the majority of these beings will burn for eternity since they made the "choice" to not believe in Him. If this being is real, how He must be laughing that we believe in such an idea as "free will."

    f.... ....

    Don’t like organized religion but am religious, and love parkway drive. Not certain what they believe but find a beautiful sentiment about faith in all their songs. What god would love this world?

    f.... ....

    fbodieslive there really is no god that could love this world especially according to your bible. Yes he gave us free will, and when we use that free will to live our own lives in a manner that is inconsistent with what he wants from us? He picks a single family to favor (playing favorites is already a black mark) and drowns EVERY SINGLE OTHER HUMAN BEING IN EXISTENCE. In the hopes that we will learn from this and fear him enough to succumb to his will. So as far as I’m concerned, even if god is real, and I stood before him after my physical body died, I’d tell him to go fuck himself. I don’t understand how anyone with a rational mind can hear that story of Noah and the ark and still worship the guy. The Bible also says that we should drive for godliness? Then murder isn’t a sin by that logic. You can kill anyone who dissatisfied you, because that’s exactly what god himself would do. But if we do it we’re damned right? Smfh. Not only that, but if any one of us men on earth were to have kids and never be around, but expect our kids to have faith that we still love them we’d be a deadbeat p.o.s parent. And that’s exactly how I feel about god, if he’s real. He’s a deadbeat and in no way deserves any level of praise. Fuck him. 🤷🏼‍♂️

  56. B.... M....

    I'm not sure as to take these lyric's message as anti-religious or stating that we humans corrupt religion with lies for our own personal gain, and because of that "No God can (or at least should) love this world"...

    B.... M....

    Science has a methodology it follows to discover if theories are true by testing them against the real world.  Faith is believing in something because some guy in a white robe, your parents or a politician said so. It's pretty much accepting knowledge as true without being able to prove it to be true. Science surely hasn't figured out everything there is to know about the world and how it works, but filling in the gaps with ''god'' did it is not a real answer. The government is the same as religion in just do as we say or you will go to jail instead of hell. They just use the mask of "The majority voted for it, so therefore it is justified." If there is no valid methodology to test your theories against reality it is just mere bigotry and opinion on why you believe it. Obviously the scientific community isn't immune from corruption. Look at what Einstein brought us and they happen to drop on hundreds of thousands of innocent Japanese people in 1945.

    B.... M....

    it still reminds me of arguing with my parents, why are there so many of you..arrgghh

    B.... M....

    @Broderick Morgan just listen to the song that follows Snake oil and holy water

    B.... M....

    I'm glad to see this religious debate has stayed somewhat civilized. But I'll be sure to check out Snake Oil and Holy Water's lyrics.

    B.... M....

    P3 Gaming lol opinion invalid? sounds like someone wants to give up debating coz they know nothing

  57. S.... W....

    If they play this at warped I will most likely have multiple head injuries before its over.

    S.... W....

    True True ^^^

    S.... W....

    i was hoping they would and they didnt :(

    S.... W....

    +Austin W NO COMFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORT!!!!!!!!!!

    S.... W....

    I would die happy seeing this live. I don't think they ever have to be honest. Truly an amazing song and one of my favorites ever from them.

  58. A.... D....

    Atheist core

    A.... D....

    No such thing LOL

  59. J.... S....

    Another fucking amazing song on this Album! looks like I'm gonna have to buy it

  60. S.... V....

    For everyone trying to convince themselves that this song doesnt directly attack religion... well it does. Now go back to talking to your imaginary friend in the sky

    S.... V....

    Wambumbu it's not an attack.

    S.... V....

    fuck...............yes preach it brother

    S.... V....

    The angry teamster kinda does

    S.... V....

    I love parkway drive, but this goes against my Christian beliefs.

  61. K.... S....

    "There is no God that could love this world." Love those lyrics.

    K.... S....

    Full stop after god.

  62. M.... ....

    I don't care what the lyrics are, or if this song is offensive to some which in my opinion is not. It's a song, get over it. It sounds good, and that's what songs are made for!

    M.... ....

    Not always, songs can be made to have a message instead of being just a song. I was only 19 by redgum is a good example of that. Same with Straightedge by minor threat.

  63. B.... ....

    the replay button  got raped...

    B.... ....

    just like all those children in the bible

  64. O.... V....

    AND I <3 PARKWAY DRIVE NO HOMO ONE OF MY FAV BANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  65. O.... V....

    I FIND NO COMFORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Considering God put us into the dark ages and considering the power the Jew has over us today and Muslims blowing themselves to pieces considering since the beginning of time Europeans have fought against these things to preserve their culture and yet now today it is illegal to be anti semitic or racist infact in Canada I saw a recent article of a German fellow being charged with hate crimes for posting material on the Internet the Judge ruled "truth is no defence" .  

  66. F.... ....

    THERE IS NO GOD!

  67. B.... B....

    Superstition rules in the land of the weak.

    B.... B....

    Well put brother.

  68. T.... ....

    30k views, damn 5k of them must be mine.

    T.... ....

    Frosty the other 25k are mine.

  69. j.... ....

    yup theres definately a lot of idiots gathering round music videos :D but no need to insult them in my view...

  70. j.... ....

    chill out dude... btw your point of view is called agnosticism

  71. A.... ....

    I know, it was a bit of a douche thing to post, but you know it's true.

  72. i.... ....

    u douche.... let them believe what they want

  73. B.... o....

    Guys I'm sure no ones religious viewpoint is going to be changed over the fucking comments section of YouTube, just enjoy the song and take your religious debates elsware

  74. A.... ....

    not to judge them or anything, but I just think it is a bit silly.

  75. A.... ....

    wait, there are still ignorant brainwashed people that believe in "God"?

  76. T.... ....

    Holy shit! This is awesome !!!

  77. S.... R....

    3:23 to 3:39 = goosebumps

  78. l.... ....

    That song actually made me cry. It's so strong and full with emotions I couldn't help myself but to cry

  79. L.... ....

    if theres no god there wouldnt be a godlike song like this

  80. t.... ....

    For Fucks sake enough with the religious talk. I came to a PWD video, not a church. Just enjoy this incredible piece of artistry

  81. s.... ....

    *clap *clap exactly.lol

  82. s.... ....

    well in the older testaments "im sure I spelled that wrong" is a very vengeful god.....very.

  83. A.... S....

    Its no so much anti-RELIGIOUS. its more to the fact that the lyrics are describing that if there is a god, they would be disgusted and ashamed of humanity.

    A.... S....

    Can't have an omnipotent being that knows everything that will happen and makes humans anyway. It's beyond illogical.

    A.... S....

    So now you’re going to speak for an omnipotent and omniscient being? That’s beyond illogical.

    A.... S....

    Ye man, because " supersticion rules in the land of weaks" its not anti religious.

  84. S.... V....

    god creates each and everyone of us, he is almighty therefore is capable of doing everything he wishes to do. He could easily cure cancer, feed the hungery, etc. If you say he cannot do these things, this means he does not have absolute power, therefore is not GOD. I true loving god will not let it's people suffer.

  85. s.... ....

    you should read the part where god wipes out the world...twice...or the 16 verses where unicorns are mentioned...

  86. H.... M....

    lol @ people trying to say PWD are Christians? they are clearly anti-religion. this song literally says 'there is no god' over and over....
    Nice in a genre so dominated by Christianity to see a band preaching humanism instead.

  87. H.... M....

    devine? great typo. does no one spell check before creating these videos?...

  88. S.... V....

    then i don't know what bible you are reading

  89. a.... ....

    Dat double kick tho

  90. d.... h....

    1:18 that awkward smell

  91. S.... V....

    your god is so loving that he gives diseases, poverty and hunger to poor innocent people, how loving :) <3

  92. n.... ....

    I already tried saying that haha

  93. n.... ....

    Stop, just interpret it how you fucking want cause I'd have sex with this song either way

  94. T.... ....

    He's saying the judeo-christian model of an all loving god is impossible.
    Did you even read the rest of the lyrics?
    "Knowledge withheld, in the name of one, let all blood spill"
    "divine judgement i could never believe"
    "superstition rules in the land of the weak" etc.
    way to cherry pick one line one of the song just b/c you believe in god, pretty sure PWD doesn't.

  95. Y.... ....

    How could a song be so fucking great *___*

  96. H.... H....

    I FIND NO CUM FART!!!

  97. c.... ....

    exactly...also i dont understan why they are trying so hard to find an excuse to argue over a song when actually no one gives a fuck...i mean you want attention ok do it in another way
