Once Nothing - Gunfire Is the Sound of Freedom + Lyrics (Earthmover Version)

*I DO NOT OWN THIS SONG NOR TAKE CREDIT FOR IT*

Track 1 on this southern metalcore band's 2007 EP release "Earthmover" is Gunfire Is the Sound of Freedom.

Lyrics:

Put me to sleep and let me
Wake up without a memory
I cannot stand the eyes of judgment
Staring through me
It's like lead on my chest
Concrete around my feet
A sword down my throat
And poison on my tongue

Burn it off
Burn it off
Burn it off
Burn it off
It has taste!

For too long my teeth kept secrets
From escaping my tongue
For too long my teeth kept secrets
From escaping my tongue
So bring your scalpels and cut away
So bring your scalpels and cut away

I cannot settle for mediocrity
It is a leech
Burn it off

I have no lover, I've buried them all
I sleep on a blood soaked mattress: luke-warm

I have no lover, I've buried them all
I sleep on a blood soaked mattress: luke-warm
I have no lover, I've buried them all
I sleep on a blood soaked mattress: luke-warm

Stripped away and cast into the fire: was my innocence
My reflection such a pale complexion that I hate
I have no lover
I have no lover

[bryanfuel]

is this Christian?

[MetalYouWannaHear]

@bryanfuel I don't think so.

[xxAshesreborn]

@bryanfuel yes it is

[megaLOskateboarding]

@wonderwood11 fuck you dumbass. Once Nothing formed 4 years prior to Maylene. So stop comparing bands like a little bitch and go listen to some Lil Wayne or something.

[wonderwood11]

This band is just a bunch of guys trying to be Maylene, but they aren't as good.

[iamprestontucker]

@bryanfuel yerp. it actually is.

[beachy0311]

@bryanfuel yes, they are a christian metal core from pittsburgh pa that happen to be the only band i know of that has gotten blue collar metal down. they are amazing, and good people

[brenman91]

@MetalYouWannaHear im 2nd cousins with steve Lucarelli (bassist) they had some Christian lyrics, but they didnt like to be called "a christian band!"

[kyle892]

@bryanfuel solid state doesnt only take christian bands, they are just notorious for it, because 99% of their bands are christian

@toxicwastepoop watch the video of that song at their final show, you'll get a nice explanation, sometimes you've got to think about the lyrics ;)
