Trivium- Torn Between Scylla And Charybdis

One of the best songs of Trivium from the album shogun.

Lyrics:

Within struggle, amidst horror
Inside conflict, visceral war
Make a stand here, vanquish all fear
Don't hesitate, eradicate

Torn between Scylla and Charybdis
Feel the fear ripening, go taste it
Torn between Scylla and Charybdis
Feast fruits of valor, if you face it

Walls of carnage surround your weakness
Crash down like oceans, wait for the light
In total darkness, drowning in bleakness
Awaiting death's grip, cry out for life

Divided by destiny
Torn between death and doom
Destruction by decision
Fate shows me my open tomb

Apprehension runs down your chin
Masticate it, suck those tears in
Life's a battle, perpetual crusade
One against all, time to wield the blade

Torn between Scylla and Charybdis
Feel the fear ripening, go taste it
Torn between Scylla and Charybdis
Feast fruits of valor, if you face it

In total darkness, drowning in bleakness
Awaiting death's grip, cry out for life

Divided by destiny
Torn between death and doom
Destruction by decision
Fate shows me my open tomb

A fight that tests the substance
Of all that you call your life
Destruction by decision
Fate shows me my open tomb

2x
Face down that which makes you bleed
Turn it 'round and force your seed
Down

Torn between Scylla and Charybdis
Feast fruits of valor, if you face it

Walls of carnage surround your weakness
Crash down like oceans, wait for the light
In total darkness, drowning in bleakness
Awaiting death's grip, cry out for life

Divided by destiny
Torn between death and doom
Destruction by decision
Fate shows me my open tomb

A fight that tests the substance
Of all that you call your life
Destruction by decision
Fate shows me my open tomb

How can you be METALcore with METAL elements? That's like saying Wow is a MMORPG with RPG elements.

I love how matts lyrics are about actual historical things, shogun is a masterpiece enough said

2:52 to 3:56 is one of the greatest solo riffs in my record...when i first heard this my jaw dropped and i listened to it at least 20 times that day.

Who gives a fuck about the classification, just listen to the music. Label it however you wish, it doesn't change what it is.

Very good album.

[YouTubricant]

This album--which is easily Trivium's best--is the first and only "thrashcore" album. And it's fucking brilliant.

@MasterofchaosX Exactly what soxlei said! Cheers!

@MasterofchaosX everything with your comment is OK but Trivium is not metalcore
