Veil Of Maya - Graymail Lyrics






To the prisons with those who disobey
Where they shall rot and decay
And to the few who dare deceive me
Your heads will roll on the pavement beneath me

I will unhinge this world
My endless reign is all that I can see
I will unhinge this world
Kneel at my feet or die in the streets
Your ridicule has made me what I am
What I am

To the honest man I've broken apart (broken apart)
But they fail to understand that
Their ridicule has made me what I am

To the prisons with those who disobey
Where they shall rot and decay
And to the few who dare deceive me
Your heads will roll on the pavement beneath me
The hate you've placed on me has
Only fed my famished ambition to eradicate you
When you're cast you'll seek forgiveness
May you then realize your worthless existence

The red stains
The red stains

To the honest man I've broken apart (broken apart)
But they fail to understand that
Their ridicule has made me what I am
To the honest man I've broken apart (broken apart)
But they fail to understand that
Their ridicule has made me what I am

Stand in red

The rodents will feast on your insides
Your ridicule has made me what I am

Veil Of Maya Graymail Comments
  1. R.... N....

    1:01 scared the shit out of me

  2. A.... T....

    Everybody's talking about "the rodents will feast on your insides", but, IMHO, the delivery on that "May you then realize your worthless existence" line is absolutely insane.

  3. M.... C....

    I’ve been working on a guitar tab for a while. I think I have the intro down. Anyone care to see? Maybe help

  4. W.... C....

    The dude on the cover looks like Clint Eastwood mixed with Jordan Peterson lol.

  5. D.... T....

    This might be my favorite.

  6. J.... M....

    God damn this is nasty. 🤾🏼‍♂️

  7. l.... r....

    Belter of album this! <3

  8. E.... i....

    she could steal every idea, and transfer the title -all i'd do is liquidate and start over

  9. T.... C....

    best chorus ever

  10. A.... M....

    Best cleans from the album

  11. M.... B....

    Almost a year later and this album is still on rotation top 3 for sure !!!!

  12. R.... J....

    they fail to understand that their ridicule has made me
    *what I am*

  13. R.... E....

    The rodents will djent on your insides

  14. E.... O....

    Why does this sound so similar to ai640?

    E.... O....

    Similar vocals and lyrics, that's why I guess. Anyways good shit.

  15. P.... T....

    Lyrics plz(?

  16. W.... ....

    By far my favorite song on the albun. Also my new favorite song to play on drums! Thanks VOM, you guys rock

  17. o.... ....

    This kind of music can t be done by humans ... 👽

  18. Z.... S....

    Still original guitarist?

    Z.... S....

    Zw Sauter yea! Man’s made of djent

    Z.... S....

    Was gonna say, this sounds too similar to old Veil.

  19. I.... ....

    To the prisons with those who disobey
    Where they shall rot and decay
    And to the few who dare deceive me
    Your heads will roll on the pavement beneath me

  20. X.... L....

    Why is that chorus so hard to count out? it's like in 3/4 and 4/4 at the same time.

  21. G.... B....

    I'm at work supposed to be fixing computers not throwing them across the room and jumping on peoples desks...

  22. �.... ....

    first song on the album that compelled me to relay it..

  23. A.... B....

    Love that riff at 1:23.

  24. T.... G....

    Omfg this is so dumb their older shit was way better...

    Psyke!! This shit super rad!❤
    As always.

  25. D.... O....

    Fuck this is soooo djentastic

  26. T.... ....

    Whoever says they don't like Veil Of Maya because of the new singer is not a real VOM fan, no offense.

    T.... ....

    Fukken right :)

    T.... ....

    Anybody who prefers this more isnt a veil of maya fan. Older was better and they know that thats why they're bringing the old technical stuff back. No hate to the singer but the older stuff is way ahead

    T.... ....

    Satan wrong.

  27. L.... M....

    Shit album. New singer ruined VoM

    L.... M....

    Lumine Maverick and your comment gave me cancer

    L.... M....

    singer is talented but vom went pop since brandon was kicked off

    L.... M....

    Closed minded fans like you ruined VoM

    L.... M....

    the rodents will feast on your insides.

  28. A.... B....

    3:15 And that noise is so cool. Anyone know how the FUCK they do that shit

    A.... B....

    On the guitar he does a pinch harmonic( or a natural harmonic) and flicks the whammy bar to create that “flickering/ gargling” sound :) check out the music video to finale by polyphia and you can see them doing it a lot

  29. A.... B....

    2:40 the singing here is just so insanely good.

  30. K.... ....

    i got the feeling that the good music era ( In my opinion ""read this again if you dont understand it "" of 2006 is slight coming back and touching its finest glory years of music production, 2013 2014 2015 were expiremental years in the metal comunity , and muscians were striving creativily and following labels path to promote trends, bc lets ne honest labels really dont care about music to them its just a product; in those years of 2013 ;14,15,16 mixing cleans wasnt so popular since many bands started experimenting cleans and even the heavists band which caused alot of controversy like suicide silence.
    the comunity had alot critics but now its like artists are returning to their roots and mixing the new era and its getting well balanced,
    ""fuck you sumerian records good thing darkest hour are doing what they want , labels are too forcy with bands if they only realise that what the people want is the essence of a band and not a fucking trend ;

  31. L.... ....

    Man, "Graymail" should have been the lead single.

    L.... ....

    Or Manichee :)

    L.... ....

    up like an angel and down like a wounded ox

  32. M.... C....

    The harmony at the end of the second chorus is brilliant

  33. X.... ....

    3:20 THE RODENTS WILL FEAST ON YOUR INSIDES 😈🤘 One of my favorite breakdowns on the album <3

    X.... ....

    Yum. 😋

  34. J.... S....

    *The rodents will feast on your insides*

    J.... S....

    James Sweeper amazing breakdown

  35. S.... S....

    The rodents will feast on your insides.. vom fukin slidin

  36. J.... B....

    fuckin right

  38. t.... ....

    #1 ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!! TOO PERFECT :) The cleans are absolutely amazing too.

  39. A.... M....

    this shit gay as hell

    A.... M....

    Dude, you are gay. Get the fuck out of here.

  40. t.... ....

    I love this song!!! :) the whole album is perfection and that damn breakdown 😁😁😁 #VEIL4LIFE

  41. E.... W....

    This album is honestly boring as fuck.

  42. L.... O....

    The groove at :30 holy balls

  43. Z.... ....

    This is not Veil of Maya, like really not VoM. But the album is absolute fire. I don't know what to think

    Z.... ....

    Zenny this song reminds me of ai640 quite a bit.

  44. N.... B....

    These motherfuckers love 3/4 and 6/8 and they switch between them and common time so effortlessly that it's almost ridiculous

    N.... B....

    Nate Bassili Honest to goodness, man.. Like when 1:59 hit for the first time I was speechless

  45. T.... ....

    my favourite of álbum. i think i listen more than 50 times today. sick replay botton

  46. A.... V....

    .........fuck...........

  47. S.... F....

    I always tough that matriarch was too different from the previous work of the band and with too much clean vocals (for a band that had none before). But this is the perfect balance of the two world imo

  48. L.... D....

  49. P.... ....

    They've really stepped up the instrumentals since Mikasa, which I loved, but the technicality wasn't as present as previous releases. They're trying to appeal to old and new fans here, I can dig it.

    P.... ....

    Music isn't all about technicality you know lol

    P.... ....

    @No U the guys name is POLYPHERY haha gaaay

  50. j.... ....

    this shit just snatched the title of my #1 album of 2017

    j.... ....

    j.... ....

    Sean Powers honestly Northlane’s Mesmer had me sold for a minute.

    j.... ....

    jvstndrvms hahaha man! Even I can’t decide AOTY between mesmer and false idol 😂

  51. M.... ....

    Really into that opening riff

    M.... ....

    RealLifeIsShit it's definitely unique

  52. C.... P....

    That chorus at 2:40 🌈🍆

  53. J.... R....

    That guitar tone though!

    J.... R....

    JM Recordings Marc is a Mastermind

  54. L.... P....

    Ok ok... nvm is too complicated but maybe bc I have to get use too👌🏼

  55. T.... ....

    I love that all the comments r about the actual music, but two days when this gets more views its gonna be the gay as comments like "this will be covered" or "Shit jus aint as good as their first record"
    Everything is always so fucking awesome til a bunch of people get a hold of it n cum in its eyeball n fuck it all up

    T.... ....

    Preach it, WutangBizkit, preach it.

    T.... ....

    Lol, you say you’re here for the music, but you read the comments. STFU, you cant even punctuate a sentence correctly.

    T.... ....

    Couldnt have said it any better

    T.... ....

    Yeah people like you that cry instead of enjoying it

    T.... ....

    let me paint everything like a rainbow so you are happier and say nice words to everything so you are happy

    y.... l....

    @Charlie This has been stuck in my head for days lol

  57. y.... l....

    how can something so fucking brutal be so djentle at the same time??

    y.... l....

    They've struck the perfect balance

  58. A.... M....

    The cleans at 1:12 sounds more like Dan Tompkins than Lukas

    A.... M....

    Akhil Menon it kinda had a Scar Symmetry vibe also

    A.... M....

    Akhil Menon I was thinking more like Ashe O’Hara. Honestly sounds like it could be off altered state

    A.... M....

    p33pdon Yup! it definitely has a Tesseract vibe going on!

  59. S.... M....

    They have shown that Periphery are not the only ones who can djent like hell!

  60. t.... ....

    Scream like a devil sing like an angel

    t.... ....

    gcvpip that sentence belong to chester bennington, dont forget it.

    -Ragtime Dandies

  61. l.... ....

    Good shit. 3:10, can we get that looped please? HF the rest of this album can wait a minnit...

  62. J.... R....

    The outro is edgy as fuck.

    J.... R....

    Jesse Roberts how can something like this be edgy wtf?!

    J.... R....

    It's definitely edgy and it should be loved for being such. This album gives me chills for all the right reasons.

  63. D.... R....

    Holy fuck 😍

  64. E.... ....

    Can't handle this level of djent 🙏

  65. C.... W....

    Favorite song on the album. False Idol is amazing altogether, thx for the heart and hard work put into it VoM. Keep killin' it.

    Edit: I've listened to "False Idol" about 5 times now... I retract my statement. It's so good, I can't pick a favorite anymore.

    C.... W....

    Chris Wooton

    I've become obsessed with the album just this week. This song is probably one of the best for me and hits me in the chest so hard.

    C.... W....

    So true. Hard to pick a favorite for me aswell. Mine are Pool Spray, Doublespeak, Citadel, Echo Chamber, Whistleblower and Fracture
    ...and this.

    C.... W....

    And yeah i know... Ive just mentioned half the album but idfc lol

  66. �.... �....
