Testament - Falling Fast Lyrics






Locked in the darkened world
Made to never last
That's where the dreams you seek
Are like stories from the past
Sweet infant child's born
Sweet mother of the womb
Hope it is over soon
Not much more can I take

Help me lord
I'm falling fast
Bring me back

Nerves slip away from
Within your conscious mind
Translucent hopes are now
Nothing but dismal lies
You lived your life so down
To the bitter end
Better think it over now
Your life has just begun

Help me lord
I'm falling fast
Bring me back
From suicide

Just show me life is how
And not a bitter war
The odds in favor now
It's hard to live and learn
Silence the sorrow
And don't let it slip away
Think of tomorrow
As the future of today

Help me lord
I'm falling fast
Bring me back
From suicide
I'm falling fast!!

Locked in the darkened world
Made to never last
That's where the dreams you seek
Are like stories from the past
Sweet infant child's born
To the mother of the womb
Hope it is over soon
Not much more can I take

Help me lord
I'm falling fast
Bring me back
From suicide
I'm falling fast!!

    Just here for my daily listen.

  14. f.... g....

    I remember seeing these guys multi times in high school. shit I am 44 now. these guys were so under rated. seen them with Dark Angel. so heavy.

  15. j.... c....

    Greg & I had a conversation back in 2013 when they were opening for lamb of god @ the Fillmore in Denver my hometown .. he said basically hates this record, because the label pulled them off the road while they were still touring to promote the Practice what you preach record.. to me that's a harsh reality cause this record is 1 of my favorites.. this tune.. the legacy , malpractice, the title track.. shit my uncle gave me his souls of black hoodie that he bought on the 10 days in May tour..

  16. a.... a....

    STFU About Metallica already, this is TESTAMENT!!!!

    a.... a....

    fuckin metallica fans. nothing worse.

    a.... a....

    Yeah I don't know why everyone keeps bringing up Metallica on a Testament video. Testament and old Metallica are both great but are completely different bands.

    a.... a....

    metal fanboys like you , nothing worse

    a.... a....

    BEST THRASH BAND EVER HANDS DOWN. FUCKIN TESTAMENT
    🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

  17. T.... ....

    I think the intro like harvester of sorrows

  18. a.... ....

    I remember blasting this a lot back in my high school days.  Very underrated band.  I started getting into thrash in the late nineties when all the posers were listening to Nu-metal.

    a.... ....

    Hey, Nu-metal was Cool.
    But yeah, If anything, this is the Shit we Love the most! ;)

    a.... ....

    @wąśir

    Shut it ya big potatah!

    a.... ....

    I even envy you that kids in your school listened to nu-metal,everyone in my school now listens to that trap garbage

  19. d.... ....

    yes indeed ms. im not trying to trash talk metallica though they were good at one point. but testament are THE reigning kings of thrash in my opinion.

  20. S.... M....

    They are the most underrated band they are one of the best bands of all time

  21. S.... M....

    a lot of bands r better than metallica......metallica was just heavy but with a more commercial sound

    S.... M....

    Metallica used to be ''heavy''.

  22. H.... o....

    why is metallica in every metal video it's..... wait for it....
    ULLLLTTTRRRAAAAAAAA GAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!

    H.... o....

    No one asked you that you are Ultra Gay, because they already know, so shut it ya Gay Pussy Fag.

    Yer no even Funny, Mate.

  23. m.... ....

    ...and justice for all was definitely their most complex and heaviest album, which is why it is my favorite metallica album, although i can see why people may not like it as much as their previous ones, it lacks the rawness and melody in rtl and especially mop, but i like the fact ajfa is just a really angry album, definitely their most angry album imo as well, it's also the one album that lars actually plays pretty good drums, sadly though they lose the amazing bass that burton brought :(

  24. d.... ....

    ride the lightning is agreeable but im not too fond of ajfa. ajfa seems like an album full of fillers that didn't make the cut on the 2 albums before it.

  25. m.... ....

    something called a metaphor, why u take things so literally

  26. m.... ....

    from an all around perspective yes, but ...And Justice for All and Ride the Lightning imo are better albums than any of Testament's

  27. D.... R....

    Another favourite song added to my knowledge! :D Yaaaaaassss. X3 Amazing.

  28. R.... F....

    Holy shit. Stop comparing bands to other bands. Testament has their own sound and not many people recognize that. You can hear how much of an influence they have on new thrash bands.

  29. T.... ....

    Kerry King fucking Kirk Hammet through the pipe lol

  30. M.... ....

    It took me too long to realize that haha I love Megadeth but have to agree. I guess it just reminded me of it in some ways.

  31. t.... ....

    Souls of Black is a solid record with great songs like Falling Fast here, the one problem with this record was it was rushed out of the studio, guitars have a ton of verb on them, where there shouldn't be, take some of the verb off so it the record cuts better and you are looking at maybe one of the top testament records. And it prolly woulda had guitar tone similar to Mets black album. Eric's/Alex's guitars sound killer 99% of the time, but the amps sound like they are underwater here

  32. M.... ....

    And Megadeth, because the singer sounds like a combination of Hetfield and Mustaine.

  33. M.... ....

    Whoa! The singer sounds like Dave Mustaine a lot at some parts of this song.

  34. M.... ....

    Not everything has to be Death Metal to be brutal.

  35. A.... W....

    your a fuckin homo slayer destroys that shit

  36. m.... ....

    My favorite album by them.

  37. K.... C....

    One of my favorites off the album!!

  38. E.... ....

    @XxmusixlordxX That is a must when you are a collector isn't it?

  39. E.... ....

    @XxmusixlordxX Because the raw classic feel was all gone.

  40. E.... ....

    @XxmusixlordxX No man, re-recordings suck ass! Remember the Exodus and the Megadeth ones?

  41. E.... ....

    @TheKevFella Yeah, the reason is because they where one of the 4 most populair thrash metal bands.
    The big 4 is just something the media came up with to make more money.

  42. B.... ....

    One of the most underrated albums in their catalogue. One of my favorites, I would listen to this over Practice, Ritual, Demonic, and Formation. The Legacy, New Order and Gathering, are their best albums.

  43. k.... ....

    nice trash

  44. S.... ....

    Been rockin this for 20 years since I was in 7th grade on the same CD I bought the first week it came out.

    WTF, how is it SO badass!!??

  45. F.... M....

    brasil today

  46. P.... ....

    @supremetit

    the songs on the album are great, but sadly the producer ruined the sound completly...

  47. d.... ....

    @TheKevFella i don't hate them i just think they lost their spark

  48. K.... O....

    @djmm1397 Why does it even matter.....why do people bash tallica.....they're in the big 4 for a reason!!!

  49. d.... ....

    I FUCKING LOVE TESTAMENT!!! THEYRE WAAAAAAAAAAAYY BETTER THAN METALLICA

  50. v.... ....

    this one of the best album cover EVER...

  51. J.... Z....

    @arabianmetalhead99 oh yeah i know its different. but they dident sell out. just cause a bands style changes doesent mean they sold out. i dont like the way they changed but i respect it. james cant sing right anymore because hes voice got really messed up on the tour for black album.

  52. J.... Z....

    @arabianmetalhead99 they dident sell out, his voice got fucked up. i hate it when people say that. i personally dont like their music now but they dident sell out they just changed

  53. D.... ....

    esta muy bn

  54. F.... ....

    @supremetit ikr?

  55. C.... H....

    @arabianmetalhead99 But i am not talking about the three shit albums by metallica, i am talking about the awesome metallica, and i have heard the singer from evile talk about his favourite band had always been metallica :P either way, i love all four bands, metallica, slayer, testament and evile, so i just don't feel like arguing

  56. C.... H....

    @hacksign5 Way to leave out exodus, although they may be popular, i still think testament is bigger then them

  57. C.... H....

    @arabianmetalhead99 Here is the difference, metallica=awesome, slipknot=shit. If metallica had a kid it would be evile, if slayer had a kid it would be warbringer. anyways i don't wanna start metallica arguments, THRASH METAL RULES!

  58. Z.... R....

    If someone can find a Testament upload that does not have Metallidethslaythraxodusoverchurch comments, please let me know. I will do a goddamn backflip.

  59. K.... ....

    @metallicatilldeathhh That's pretty weird.... Metallica and Slayer having a kid..... Do you know how kids are made? Are you wanting a bunch of dudes to do gay group sex? XD

  60. c.... ....

    @metallicatilldeathhh really dude fuck slayer fucking trash not thrash

  61. C.... ....

    What an amazing vocals! Souls of Black has very cool album cover too.

  62. -.... B....

    A Fuckin great album!!! Souls rulezzzzzzzz!!!!

  63. C.... H....

    The unrecognized gods of Metal:
    Testament
    Judas Priest
    Overkill
    Sodom
    Venom

  64. R.... B....

    @supremetit personallyi liked souls of black best

  65. C.... ....

    I loved these guys so much I got the effects pedals so when I thrashed it sounded like them lol

  66. S.... ....

    Pff Souls of black is one of my favourites!

  67. D.... M....

    @metallicatilldeathhh and if they let Megadeth babysit him

  68. P.... ....

    @supremetit their best i think

  69. A.... G....

    THey should just remaster this or somthing and mix it better

  70. S.... ....

    @LordLBlock

    Compared to Cliff Burton, Geezer Butler, Lemmy, Casey Orr, Steve Digorgio, Jack Gibson, and Jaco! Think not!

  71. S.... ....

    @metallicatilldeathhh

    I don't know about being "part Slayer." Testament towards the late 80s seem to become "Metallica Jr.!" But nowadays they kick more ass than those sellout pussies!

  72. a.... ....

    @metallicatilldeathhh its more like if god and thor had a kid

  73. N.... C....

    yer the only album i dont like from testament is demonic i thought it was very boring, the others are all masterpeices =)

  74. A.... A....

    Souls of black is my favorite album! Never, neverland comes next.

  75. a.... ....

    Yeah, same here.

    "The New Order" & "Souls of Black"

    are my 2 favorite Testament albums

  76. F.... ....

    in this song?they are ALWAYS badass!

  77. A.... A....

    \m/ d(^_^)b \m/

  78. n.... ....

    it's all a bit much for me
