Lamb of God - The Undertow *HD w/ LYRICS*

Track #5 of Lamb of God's album "Resolution" released in 2012.
© 2012 WMG Roadrunner Records

You always needed people like me
Directions for your fingers to point
A crooked dealer's blaming spree
I'm guaranteed to disappoint
You're weak and scared and cutting raw deals
But fortune always favours the bold
I'll bet it all and crush your bluff
I'll never yield nor ever fold.
And I won't shoulder the blame.
I am the one who's left to take the fall
I fight the constant undertow.

You always needed a distraction
A target for the stones that you thrown
To draw attention to your actions
I'm tailor made so lock & load
Oh, you're telling tales You spineless coward
Your word's not worth its weight in shit
Back against the wall, belligerent.
I won't shoulder the blame

So high and mighty But when the bottom drops out
You're gonna find me standing where you left me.
Deal the last hand, let the cards fall where they may
From your castle made of sand you're looking down at me
So high and mighty But when the bottom drops out
You'll have to face me waiting where you left me.

Probably my favorite song off the album so far. They dont always have breakdowns in their songs like some bands do but when they do they rip assholes open!!

RANDYfuckingBLYTHE!!

[MrChriseagles]

awesome guitar riff



[VJelectro]

@AP93Playa There are no "metalcore" breakdowns in this album. None of that predictable shit to be found on Resolution. This particular breakdown should be shown to all the metalcore kids as an example of how to do a breakdown correctly. In this song, the breakdown is a fucking heavy-ass RIFF, instead of that predictable chugging syncopation.

[AP93Playa]

@violentlymadkow525 yup, but this one is what i call a REAL metal breakdown. i havent listened to this album yet, did they finally get rid of the metalcorish ones? i´ve also noticed they´ve included more solos so that´s cool

@kungfuman82 The core genres are disgusting. However, this is groove and pulls its abilities off well.

[MrFunkymonks]

This album kicks ass!!! Go buy it people, they deserve it!!

[michael111395]

i love this song, but King Me is prolly me fave song off of this album!

[TheOriginalOwnage]

@bloodjunkie809 Oh you and I feel exactly the same, my friend.

[kungfuman82]

@violentlymadkow525 Agreed. Breakdowns can be bad-ass and I'm certainly not against them like people who have knee-jerk reactions against any music with the word "core" in it, but I think that many lesser bands abuse them and they become stale. LOG knows how to use them to their maximum effect and the result is usually a hole in my wall and broken knuckles.
