Phinehas - Salting The Mine Lyrics






We're only looking back to see the miles we've left behind
What we thought was finished has only marked the beginning
I'm done with wasting my time to pay for your trend
You've been played out for years and it makes me so sick to watch

We walk a tight rope to stay alive
You repeat yourself over and over
It's another day, another lie
They will chew you up just to spit you out

We're only looking back to see the miles we've left behind
What we thought was finished has only marked the beginning

The more you talk the less your words hold weight
A herd of cattle led to the butcher's block and put to sleep

A wise man once told me that "the only originality left is honesty." - [Seth Webster]

We walk a tight rope to stay alive
You repeat yourself over and over
It's another day, another lie
They will chew you up just to spit you out

So don't buy in, you're just another ticket sold

We walk a tight rope to stay alive
You repeat yourself over and over
It's another day, another lie
They will chew you up just to spit you out

We walk a tight rope to stay alive
It's getting old
It's another day, another lie
Don't buy in you're just another ticket sold

They'll chew you up just to spit you out
So don't buy in
I'm not gonna pay for your trend

  1. x.... _....

    1:50 ruined the song and it was only 5 seconds ugh

  2. P.... S....

    I love this song ♡-♡

  3. M.... G....

    Don't like their sound that much anymore, this is a wicked tune though. But sounds like textbook Maylene.

    M.... G....

    @Lucas Badá Rodrigues I see what your saying, and agree with the reference, but in this case I don't, they just got up and changed that style, and I don't dig. I do have a whole theory behind it aswell, but I feel like it'd just waste your time, and y'all wouldn't agree with me.

    M.... G....

    +Mason Graham let's here this theory because i to have noticed this change

    M.... G....

    haha holy smokes man, i can barely remember this! Iand sorry, but i can't remember the theory! But Underoathe's original singer was booted out of the band (they were christian), and now Dallas Taylor sings for Maylene & The Sons of Disaster (wicked band, check em out if you haven't already!) ... Maylene are very southern metal, blues riffs, but southern, southern, southern. And this song is ripping their sound hard. I'm not saying that as a necessarily a bad thing, but it's not original, they didn't make it their own much at all. And it was obviously just a different take to the music to make money and capture a different sound, because now, holy shit, it's even more different! Sorry again that I can't remember what I was thinking, take care now, Happy New Year!

    M.... G....

    Idk about any of that but thw vocals have definitely changed since there first 2 albums

    M.... G....

    Who dafuq is Maylene????
    Why don't you guys try appreciating the band and the song for what it is, instead of trying to compare it to another group that they may not even have been influenced by..?
    This is like saying, "Oh shit, Arch Enemy is rad but they sound like textbook Children of Bodom."
    Stop that shit.
