Acacia Strain, The - House Of Abandon Lyrics






All paths follow the beam [x4]

They keep dying but I'm still here.
All I want to hear is dirt hitting the box
I don't need this, you have become a health risk.
Listen for the moan, better to travel alone.
I don't need this, you have become a health risk.

I was born on the battlefield,
Born into death beneath the wheel.
Sirens and screams were my lullabies,
I never had the time to learn how to cry
The good times are behind us,
If they were ever good at all.
The future will not find us,
You failed me, I failed us all

Abandonment
Sorry is not going to pay the rent.
I wanna hear you say it
I wanna see your life sprayed across the walls.

Life is the slowest way to die [x4]

I lost you because I wanted to
And they will never end up finding you.
And if they do,
They won't know it's you.

Eat it alive. Bury the living. Burn the dead.
Eat it alive. Bury the living. Burn the dead.

As we live, we are surrounded by death.
Blinded by the idea, that it's all that's left.
True life ends, when we emerge from the womb.
All clarity comes, and is placed in your tomb.

    THIS is the REAL lyrics..

    "All paths follow the beam [x4]

  2. D.... 4....

    2019 still havent updated to the correct lyrics lol 👍

  3. N.... C....

    Sorry is not gonna pay the rent

  4. C.... T....

    Even the guys with the most hate, have a soft side.

  5. F.... H....

    "I dont need this, you have become a HELP DESK!!!" XD 0:42

  6. S.... D....

    When ya girl wants a slow song
    You give that bitch a 2 step

  7. t.... d....

    Best outro ever

  8. E.... G....

    If you make the same mistake I did and watch one of those 8 bit metal cover songs before this, I swear, you hear the 8 Bit beeps throughout this song -_- learn from me, kids. Dont ruin good music for yourself

  9. P.... Z....

    That solo hits too hard

  10. d.... ....

    get your fuckin lyrics rite rise records

  11. x.... ....

    This album is wicked, but goddamn, what the fuck is up with the nonsensical album name? Death is the only one subject to death? Could someone please explain that to me? I feel like even if I was sober, that wouldn't make any sense.

    x.... ....

    +xxhardforcorexx Think of it this way. Death is the only thing certain in life. However in the lifespan of the cosmos, we are but a blip; although everything that has a beginning has an end . So What that means in correlation, is Once Death has taken all life, death will in fact die - so Death in the longevity of the cosmos, as a whole, is the true mortal

    x.... ....

    +xxhardforcorexx That is not dead which can eternal lie. And with strange aeons even death may die.

    x.... ....

    +Marc Thome Hp lovecraft my man!

    x.... ....

    What kind of stupid comment is this lol the album name answers itself, in simpilest terms, Death is the Only Mortal. Death is the only thing certain in life, everything dies in the end even death, being mortal.

  12. E.... ....

    Slow, eerie guitars are my life

  13. a.... c....

    2 years later and the lyrics in the description are the lyrics from Time Death and God. I dunno how to feel about Rise after seeing that

    a.... c....

    +angel cortes The pink vinyl has the same problem. At least rise can change the lyrics on the description. My lyrics sheet will always be misprinted haha.

    a.... c....

    two more years later and it's still the wrong lyrics in the description lol

    a.... c....

    Same killed my brain for a solid minute

    a.... c....

    @alexander simmons another year later and the same.

  14. D.... P....

    0:01 Hall pass, follow the pee.

    D.... P....

    Hahahahahaha goddammit you ruined this song for me. Well done

    D.... P....

    @Eric Green I know im fucking dead dude that was way funnier than mine XD

  15. J.... R....

    NICE FUCKING DOOM/DEATH-METAL

    J.... R....

    +Jens Ragas The melodic ending though, very nice

  16. b.... m....

    this is one of the best metal bands for sure

  17. T.... ....

    The end of this song makes me tear up

  18. M.... O....

    Idk, but I think this album reached the limits of the ultra sludge chug, I feel like some new fast paced acacia strain will come out.

  19. J.... G....

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! WHAT WILL BECOME OF THEM NOW!!!!!!

  20. M.... O....

    The Acacia Strain dropped DL back in May. He doesn't do anything for the band now, he is not in the band anymore. Google it.

  21. J.... W....

    "Life is the slowest way to die"...genius line.

  22. S.... W....

    Damn right. I'm obsessed with Wormwood and this album for that reason. DL kinda makes most of the band for me. I started recording a demo and you can totally hear his influence in my music.

  23. S.... W....

    They can. Don't just play off their new guitarist - wait to see what he's capable of. It will probably be different in some ways, but you also might like someone else's play-style more.

  24. S.... W....

    Are you serious? Wow. That's really embarrassing. lol

  25. J.... S....

    I dunno what it is.. but this album is like a drug to me. I just cant stop listening to it. I usually dont like deathcore kinda bands .. but that sound, that fucking GUITAR SOUND !!! Listen to that shit , DL's tone on this album killed.

  26. S.... P....

    wonderful *-*

  27. M.... X....

    Must... endure... desire... for more...

  28. J.... G....

    I'm wondering why that was in there with both lyrics for T&D&G on that and house of abandon...it was like >____< wtf????

  29. J.... G....

    DL is still IN the acacia strain...he just doesn't TOUR with them...he wrote all the guitar tracks on this album...he's just their producer/main writer now...he's spending time with his family....very honorable of him I must say

  30. J.... S....

    I dont see how they're gonna get a better sound than this without DL.

  31. A.... S....

    well, yeah

  32. K.... D....

    eh it sounds more like meshuggah

  33. S.... T....

    "True life ends, when we emerge from the womb.
    All clarity comes, and is placed in your tomb."

    Damn thats metal as fuck.

  34. A.... S....

    Reminds me a lot of "Behemoth"

  35. W.... ....

    Good job, Rise Records, for putting the lyrics to "Time and Death and God" on this video. :)

  36. N.... C....

    especially when ur trippin in my opinion

  37. N.... C....

    Id say this is prob my favorite band of all time!!!!!!!! :)

  38. e.... o....

    considering how you look like i'd take as a compliment

  39. T.... ....

    Bury the living burn the dead

  40. T.... ....

    That's what i said when i saw your profile pic..

  41. J.... G....

    dude Tactical Nuke was the perfect way to end wormwood lol...it was just sooooo beefy and sludgy

  42. l.... A....

    ACacia strain

  43. M.... ....

    "i was born on the battlefield" that fucking line gets me every time

  44. N.... B....

    WHOPPERRRRRRRRR. FOLLOW THE PEEEEEEEE.

  45. T.... ....

    oh yeah dude. the leads at the end always give me chills, right around when he's saying "this is poison, this is battery acid." then the break hits, and the song fades out with those clips. it's just as good as this but in a totally different way. other than wormwood with tactical nuke, strain writes the best endings to albums of any metal band. in my opinion at least

    T.... ....

    Observer was ridiculous

  46. F.... ....

    no shit. I hope you like "sunpoison and skin cancer" too, then, because that is hands down my favorite track from these dudes

  47. F.... ....

    ** ...unsettle." but, for someone like myself, who's pretty fucking aggravated/fed up with life in general almost all the fucking time, this shit is some of the most incredibly therapeutic art that I've ever fed into my brain. it's not about creating emotionally sound and creatively exciting music with these guys at all. it's about producing the sound of pure heaviness, and designing it with a fucking art

  48. F.... ....

    ** ...all about bringing the heaviness. musically, this album and wormwood are probably my two favorite releases from these guys, partially because of how ignorantly they seemed to write the songs. they threw the whole 'traditional-sounding song' concept write out the fucking window and said, "hey, listen to this. it's a fucking brick wall of weight, hatred and anger. nothing else. it's not necessarily meant to be enjoyed, and, if anything, it was designed to disturb and... *(continued)*

  49. F.... ....

    ** ...laskiewicz produced the fucking thing, and that right there is a dead giveaway that the album came out the exact way that they wanted it to--i'm a firm believer in that concept. besides, people miss the band's older material because sometimes the songs had a little bit more depth to them, they felt a little bit more like songs. but people are stupid, they don't seem to realize that the acacia strain couldn't give a fuck less if you enjoyed their music or not, they're just... *(continued)*

  50. F.... ....

    ** ...seriously, it's not like they've sold out or lost their luster, they've just fucking developed. besides, I feel like this is the most legitimate fucking sounding the acacia strain that's ever been made. by the way, i'm really liking that instrumental turn that this song suddenly takes around the halfway mark. this is definitely them breaking into new ground. but as far as this not being the real band, it's probably more them than it's ever been. I mean, come on, Daniel... *(continued)*

  51. F.... ....

    I love how much people bitch about the acacia strain's new material; "oh, why won't they go back to the way that they were writing on 'continent?' why has their sound just solidified into this solid wall of brute force that 'sounds just like meshuggah' and uses 'overly strained vocals.'" man, people are fucking idiots. as if this isn't how they would've written it? music fucking evolves, people. that seems to be a concept that absolutely no one wants to believe in. but... *(continued)*

  52. D.... O....

    Has anyone noticed the in description lyrics are the lyrics to Time And Death And God?

  53. T.... ....

    it's honestly the single best ending to an album i've ever heard, it literally makes me speechless.

  54. s.... ....

    I cry everytime i hear the end of this.

    s.... ....

    Harden up.

  55. B.... ....

    If it's any help to anyone these are actually the lyrics for Time And Death And God just thought I'd fill everyone in..

  56. D.... S....

    JESUS finally a band with that kin of logo and its not mall core it's actually Fukiin awesome

  57. S.... M....

    Seeing these guys live on March 5th :D

  58. C.... ....

    beneath the wheels

  59. C.... ....

    Sorry is not going to make amends

  60. N.... ....

    This song is so beautiful. I'll play with us in Lyon, France, can't wait !

  61. W.... B....

    Dude so influenced by the melodic parts of the song now. Its like a breakdown to me

  62. B.... W....

    Thank goodness for this song. I was looking for a song on this album that wasn't just super slow... This has piqued my fancy.

  63. J.... G....

    buried beneath the wheel* Sorry is not gonna pay the rent*

  64. J.... G....

    this and the breakdown to Jumanji by attila off the rage album...so fucking sick lol

  65. J.... B....

    just saw them last night, almost broke my back, so worth it.best fucking band

  66. b.... ....

    I have been disappointed with this band, but this song gave me some hope. Much better outro than Wormwood, that's for sure.

  67. A.... ....

    last 2-3 mins is best

  68. x.... ....

    Where did you find the lyrics?

  69. O.... ....

    Its in the album art too, :P wtf

  70. N.... t....

    *You failed me, I failed us all.

  71. T.... ....

    isn't it amazing? i think it's my favorite ending to any album, next to suicide silence's "disengage" or whitechapel's "animus"

  72. T.... ....

    that you so much for posting this

  73. J.... D....

    As we live, we are surrounded by death. Blinded by the idea, that it's all that's left.
    True life ends when you emerge from the womb.
    All clarity comes, and is placed in your tomb.

  74. J.... D....

    ...is fucking amazing. I can't stop listening to the ending of this song. Best way to end an album I have ever heard.

  75. c.... ....

    That Melody and the outro...

  76. 4.... ....

    @12erSAndtecHgrind "And all clarity comes when you are placed in the tomb."

  77. N.... t....

    Sorry is not going to pay the rent.
    I want to hear you say it.
    I want to see your life spray across the walls.
    Life is the slowest way to die.
    I lost you because I wanted to, and they will never end up finding you.
    And if they do, they won't know its you.
    Eaten alive.
    Bury the living, burn the dead.
    As we live we are surrounded by death.
    Blinded by the idea that its all thats left.
    True life ends when you emerge from the womb.
    And all clarity comes when you are placed in your tomb.

  78. N.... t....

    All paths follow the beam.
    They keep dying, but I'm still here.
    All I want to hear is dirt hitting the box.
    I don't need this, you have become a health risk.
    Listen for the moan, better to travel alone.
    I was born on the battlefield.
    Born into death beneath the wheel.
    Sirens and screams where my lullabies.
    I've never had the time to learn how to cry.
    The good times are behind us, if they were ever good at all.
    The future will not blind us.
    You and me, I fauled us all.
    Abandonment.

  79. N.... t....

    As we live we are surrounded by death.
    Blinded by the idea that its all thats left.
    True life ends when you emerge from the womb.
    And all clarity comes when you are placed in your tomb.

  80. A.... M....

    The lyrics are wrong in the lyric book too..

  81. J.... S....

    The Behemoth

  82. s.... ....

    you should listen to 3750 then. if you like this then you would prolly like a few songs on that album

  83. J.... D....

    I love this song and sat down with the lyrics last night to follow along and noticed that also

  84. J.... D....

    I fucking love the last 2 minutes of this song. I've never heard anything melodic at all from them before this album. Fucking awesome.

  85. B.... ....

    First minute is awesome but then it goes downhill from there with all the slow chugging shit...

  86. T.... D....

    The last line of the speaking part I can't make out. These could be totally wrong but this is what I got from it. If I'm wrong let me know.

  87. T.... D....

    You've failed me, I've failed us all. Abandonment, sorry is not going to pay the rent. I wanna hear you say it, I wanna see your life sprayed across the walls. Life. Is. The. Slowest. Way. To. DIE!! I lost you because I wanted to. And they will never end up finding you. And if they do, they won't know it's you. Eat it alive! Bury the living! Burn the dead! ( we live, we are surrounded by death. Blinded by the idea that it's all that's left. True life ends, when you emerge from the womb.)

  88. T.... D....

    This is what I got,

    "Hopeless, follow the beat. They keep dying, but I'm still here. I wanna hear this dirt hit the box. I don't need this. You have become a health risk. Listen for the moan. Better to travel alone. I don't need this. You have become a health risk. I was born on the battlefield. Born into death, beneath the wheel. Sirus's screams were my lullabies. I never had the time to learn how to cry. The good times are behind us, if they were ever good at all. The future will not bind us.

  89. B.... A....

    ".....Sorry is not going to make ammends. I want to hear you say it. I want to see your life spray across the walls. Life is the slowest way to die. I lost you because I wanted to. And they will never end finding you, and if they do they won't know it's you. Eaten alive. Bury the living, Burn the Dead!" They may be slightly wrong but help out if you can figure it out

  90. B.... A....

    ".....follow the beat, They keep dying but I'm still here, I want to hear disturbed with the pulse. I don't need this. You have become a health risk. Listen for the moan. Prepared to travel alone. I was born on the battlefield. Born into death, beneath the will. Sirus's screams were my lullabies. I never am the type to run out to hide. The good times are behind us, if they were ever good at all. The future will not blind us, you failed me, I failed us all. Abandonment......

  91. B.... A....

    Come on guys we should be able to collectively come up with these lyrics as a community

  92. T.... ....

    Now I'll be forever curious

  93. G.... ....

    Why are the lyrics the same as "Time, Death & God"?

  94. T.... ....

    i am really fucking disappointed that the real lyrics haven't been published yet. what the fuck is going on

  95. t.... ....

    This album is probably the most perfect Acacia Strain album yet. I am very pleased with the direction they're going. Keep it up, guys!

  96. S.... B....

    Thank you so much for saying exactly what I wanted to.

  97. K.... ....

    You shouldn't have typed so much any maybe I would have respected your opinion more. Now I know how stupid you are...
