It’s Monday, the start of another working week and to distract us from the humdrum of work I’m bringing you another song I love. This was started by the Drew over at The Tattooed Book Geek make sure you check him out.
This is the song that cemented my love of Trivium. When the clean vocals kick in gets me every time. I just watched the video for the first time and wow, its a very classic metal video and their hair, pure gold. Even now this is probably in my top 2 of their songs.
You starve your children on neglect
Then feed their bellies with fear
Concussion bat to the brain
Witness to a battered mother
Your abuse will end right here
No longer will your family fear
A gunshot to head of trepidation
My promise if you ever lay a finger
Just look at the scars you make
Your terror makes your kids break
A broken home just as you were raised
With fist raised up to your children
Your abuse will end right here
No longer will your family fear
A gunshot to head of trepidation
My promise if you ever lay a finger
This battle is on all
You’ve made beautiful
Now hateful
You wretched life wrecker
Abuser
Now suffer
Open fire
On the desire of the man
Open fire
With strife we’ll strike down the hand
(Open fire, build the pyre)
If I can’t make you see the damage you’ve made
(Open fire, build the pyre)
I’ll make you wish you’d never been alive
Gunshot is from Trivium’s second Album Ascendancy
Awesome tune!
