Lyrics:
My thick tongue hangs down low to the ground
Licking up the sweat coming off of her heels
She wants my teeth to wear
She wants my hell to bear
Well missy it's a lock for load
If you wanna grind hips don't do it alone
Don't save no dance no not for me
Just cut me out
You crept up like a disease looking like a girl only trying to be saved
Your heart was trying to bleed and you're taking the right road if you're talking to me
Well you thought you'd tear my skin from bone
Just cause it was cold and you needed a coat
Don't tease me just start digging the hole start digging
Oh you're getting so sleepy tonight
And you wanna go home but you don't have a ride
No time just taste won't touch for free
My salt your sweet
And you were there
And I was every question that never had an answer
I see right through you
We never even noticed that
There always was a reason
That we were never meant to be left alone
This feels like neverending
This is a great song from Mathcore band Dillinger Escape Plan, more well known for their heavier song, similar to Architects. This song has a very different sound to the majority of their work, even incorporating some trombones! It's balance of screaming and singing is about 50/50.
It's lyrics have a very angry feel. I see them as being bitter towards an ex-girlfriend and the singers continued strength and resilience against her, despite her manipulative feminine wiles. This suggests our video will be heavily narratively influenced, which I think will be difficult to pull off seriously and this is a flaw. However the unique sound and energy could lend itself to an exciting performance based video.
Even if we don't pick this song, it's a step in the right direction in finding a song with enough of a balance in the sung/screamed vocals and will help me to continue my search.
