Fall Of Troy, The - Sledgehammer Lyrics






Without a constant you lost all my words,
You never heard, the engine turn.
Now you're worthless tied to this.
Comin' down on me like a sledgehammer.
Could it be much worse? (It gets much worse!)
Nothing will compensate, accept the pain.

Thread the needle sew your fucking mouth shut! TALK NOW!..
Manipulator, we jammed your radar!
Introduction to perversion, YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!
What could be greater? We'll see you later!

Distorting depth with all your jealousy,
Another fucking sob story, another way to bleed.
Calling someone to make you feel right within your mess
Oh honey, you can't catch me, that's why you never have!

Without a constant you lost all my words,
You never heard, the engine turn.
Now you're worthless tied to this.
Comin' down on me like a sledgehammer.
Could it be much worse? (It gets much worse!)
Nothing will compensate, accept the pain.

Thread the needle sew your fucking mouth shut! TALK NOW!..
Manipulator, we jammed your radar!
Introduction to perversion, YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!
What could be greater? We'll see you later!

Drifting and floating out of time,
So sick and tired of all the fights.
Cauterize your constant lies.
Picture perfect portrait of a boyfriend...
Best friends? Oh that's right...

Fall Of Troy, The Sledgehammer Comments
  1. t.... ....

    I was sad and my friend sent me this song. I think he managed to make me happy guys :-)

  2. T.... ....

    Their intros are always so unique.

  3. B.... A....

    htis isn't peter gabriel what is this

  4. J.... F....

    Anyone else who can play this song knows how much fucking fun it is to play. Hands down my favourite tfot song from my favourite band

    J.... F....

    Blues Feldberg Yea I have a feeling tho, this song isn't as easy as it looks.

    J.... F....

    Their songs are deceptively easy to play, they just sound really hard. Sure are fun as fuck to play though, that part is true haha

    J.... F....

    Jay Lee F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X is tricky song and hard. Their guitarist is just good and makes it easy. I think tho with Fall of Troy alot of their songs are same pattern.

    J.... F....

    I guess their songs are hard if you're a beginner. I find their songs decently easy to play, but they're still mad fun cos Thomas' playing style is really weird. For me, Protest the Hero songs are fucking hard haha

    J.... F....

    I use to play this on the drums

  5. J.... L....

    Awesome

  6. C.... C....

    Just discovered this, now feel weird listening to Hail The Sun. Thank you lord youtube

    C.... C....

    +Churro Crudo Listen to 'Phantom on the Horizon' next, boi

    C.... C....

    Pretty fucken sick

    C.... C....

    Their (Shane Gann's) side project Sufferer is pretty similar to TFOT's heavier stuff.

    C.... C....

    Sufferer is my favorite fucking album rn

  7. D.... T....

    damn riffs.i hear gojira and mastodon through this..

  8. K.... W....

    1 video, you don't listen to that much metal lol!

    K.... W....

    +Kano Weeden And the one video isn't even metal.

  9. P.... ....

    Haha so much for the cool start and end XP

  10. t.... ....

    yeah my mistake :P live at paradox was from december 2002

    t.... ....

    thekazuya005 i was born in december of 2002

  11. a.... f....

    dat whole song cx

  12. P.... ....

    Didn't "Martyrs Among The Casualties" come first?

  13. S.... A....

    This song carries me away to the extent of which I am Raptar demolishing skyscrapers in hell

  14. t.... ....

    started and ended with paradox lol. they'r first album was called "Live at Paradox"

  15. W.... U....

    I can't wait for CHON's next album

    W.... U....

    Worthless Urchin so what is the connection between CHON and this band again?

    W.... U....

    They inspired each other. Even have a concert together.

  16. S.... ....

    Dat breakdown at 5:13.

  17. T.... M....

    if you like these guys you should check out a band called D.R.I theyre like 90's thrash metal but still sick as hell

  18. c.... ....

    This breakdown really seriously beats each and every breakdown I've ever heard in a metalcore or post-hardcore song. So unique,

    c.... ....

    That part sound Like slam death metal

  19. D.... H....

    The chord transitions in this song are fucking insane.

  20. B.... L....

    just fell the song'!

  21. S.... B....

    you sir, are retarded.

  22. C.... ....

    My favorite parts. Intro And at 3:45.

  23. o.... ....

    Bet you were expecting people to come down on you like a sledgehammer, right?
    Believe me, it's gonna be much worse, so get ready to accept the pain ;)

  24. a.... ....

    no one gives a fuck

  25. F.... P....

    You might like to know that the guitarist and singer in this band has a huge influence from jazz music, then.

  26. R.... ....

    5:57 best part :')

  27. N.... O....

    Goddamn, this sounds a lot like Mastodon right here. Now, there could be some deliberation, but there's definitely a lot of riffs that Brent Hinds woulda put out if he leaned more towards hardcore, and there's no denying that.

    N.... O....

    Nicholas Orion I’m denying it. Right now.

  28. D.... C....

    If you guys want to hear the new Fall of Troy, check out A Lot Like Birds.

  29. I.... ....

    Neither is he.* Fucking moron.

  30. s.... ....

    fucking great band. but im sorry everyone, The Locust rules as the craziest band alive...

  31. J.... L....

    @TheBradcake Maybe 'cause this isn't a cover

  32. B.... C....

    Idk if I'm stupid? But I can't here Peter Gabriel's version anywhere in there?

  33. P.... ....

    The one part people often misunderstand is that while sitting on his throne on Mount Olympus, Thomas decided he wanted to created gods. So he picked up his guitar, shredded and out came Zeus and the rest of the other gods from Thomas' head. Zeus was amazed at his spectacular playing so he made him a divine ruler of Earth. We are lucky to have him on this Earth.

  34. t.... ....

    smosh lisens themm!!!!

  35. A.... K....

    5:13 :)

  36. C.... V....

    @grahamcrackerlvr4578 I was just thinking that, if they had Thomas Erak singing in CHON it would be basically the fall of troy all over again.

  37. 2.... ....

    @grahamcrackerlvr4578 Good call, I like this

  38. R.... v....

    ANGRYYYY MUUUUUUUUSIC RAAAAAAWRRR

  39. G.... ....

    There's this instrumental band called CHON from San Diego who remind me of Fall of Troy. Check em out.

  40. D.... C....

    @TheFallofTomorrow I like to think that they never classified themselves in a genre. I watched a recent interview with Thomas in JLV and he said that the music just comes out however it does regardless of genres.

  41. t.... ....

    5:10 gets brutal.. the whole song is fucking incredible

  42. l.... ....

    @nelsonater2000 Never heard of em. To busy listening to Slayer :D

  43. l.... ....

    @nelsonater2000 I don't know what that means...

  44. S.... R....

    If I could physically fuck this song; I would.
    Twice.

  45. R.... K....

    @saboteur31 its ridiculous, the hardest thing i can sing and play at the same time is A Man a PLan, without the screams, this is on a different level!

  46. l.... ....

    Why in God's name is Brokencyde in the suggestions box?!

  47. M.... ....

    DAT BREAKDOWN

  48. S.... M....

    @TheFallofTomorrow My favorite part of this song is theallofit

  49. V.... E....

    @iamhollywood545 they didnt used to have to do that! :(
    and i miss the subscribe button and the unlimited favs!
    those shouldnt **be** gone..

  50. V.... E....

    @iamhollywood545 they didnt used to have to do that! :(
    and i miss the subscribe button and the unlimited favs!
    those shouldnt been gone..

  51. i.... ....

    @viciousxvee They gotta make money somehow man. Unless you want to pay for Youtube service, deal with it.

  52. i.... ....

    They gotta make money somehow, man. Unless you want to pay for Youtube, deal with it.

  53. s.... ....

    FUUCK HOW HE PLAYS AND SINGS THIS SHIT IS AMAZING

  54. V.... E....

    Remember when there weren't advertisements at the  the top of the page?

    Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO

    Remember when there wasn't advertisements that never go away?

    Remember you couldn't have a limit to favorites?

    Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

    WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!

    Post this in every video and lets start a youtube riot!

    the end reminds me of a sledge hammer

  56. A.... A....

    @coryoreo25 THIS. i cant fucking stand screamo or whatever that shit is....but fall of troy is my favorite band of all time

  57. B.... C....

    @coryoreo25 welcome to prog rock

  58. A.... V....

    The singer sucks, but god the rest of it is awsome!

  59. A.... A....

    1:25

    best part

  60. W.... B....

    this band is legit.

  61. r.... ....

    The transitions in this song are ridiculous

  62. N.... S....

    @justinisboss screamo is called such because its, well its screaming emo.. basically they combined the two words to creat "screamo". Also, Hardcore(by itself) is still considered Hardcore Punk.

  63. i.... ....

    breakdowns only good part of this song

  64. A.... B....

    yeah protest the hero is aaight. i like tfot better. and yeah i know i'm really not into screaming at all. other than tfot and bad brains and a few other exceptions it just doesnt interest me. still emo seems like a bunch of whining. i'm not saying writing songs about love and stuff is whining, just when it seems like whiny and lame it's well, lame to me haha.

  65. C.... T....

    @p00phead14 Look up Protest the Hero, both Mathcore bands

  66. C.... T....

    @p00phead14 You're listening to that mainstream emo bands. There are emo bands that don't scream like PATD, and stuff just look it up on youtube. There are emo bands that are better than stuff like Silverstein and w.e

  67. A.... B....

    yes i know :( maybe they'll be another band almost as good haha

  68. N.... S....

    @p00phead14 no fucking way dude. That sucks, they're way more of a live band than a studio one. Dude this is bullshit >:C

  69. A.... B....

    i get it i know they are not emo. i HATE emo, and i love this so yeah. i wasnt thinking right now like two or three people tell me i'm wrong haha. which i was, but yeah. too bad this tour they're on is their last :(

  70. N.... S....

    @LAMARMURRAYismyBFF yeah, Frank. He is a big black beast when it comes to bass :D

  71. N.... S....

    @Peronski depends on what kind. Metal growling and Hardcore screaming is ok with me, but Screamo is just fucking gay. Long live TFOT

  72. N.... S....

    @p00phead14 THEY ARENT SCREAMO GODDAMNIT! Screamo is emo that screams. The Fall of Troy is nowhere near emo music. This is heavily influenced by both prog rock and hardcore, but is undefinable by its genre hopping nature, which is why many people say they arent in a genre.

  73. b.... ....

    Amazing song. For me, it was FCPREMIX, but a few years before Guitar Hero 3 came out to make it popular.

  74. J.... M....

    nice to hear some really good guitar work in these times :D

  75. K.... ....

    knew about them before GH3, but forgot about them until I played it.

  76. T.... ....

    Its "Shh... if your quiet i'll show you a dinosaur"
    but close.

    Same with me, (kinda) i knew of them Before GH3 came out, but i started listening to them afterwards.

  77. F.... ....

    100% music is what it is. Genre's are stupid.

  78. m.... ....

    I only heard the FCPREMIX by TFT. But damn, they can play. Regret I didnt check them out sooner.

  79. H.... ....

    this is part mathcore part post hardcore

  80. N.... R....

    i cant believe you idiots are comparing a 50 year old blues guitarist to a post hardcore band.

  81. M.... K....

    like the breakdown although random

  82. J.... S....

    no, you're not going to see them with alexisonfire, fall of troy canceled the tour-.-

  83. A.... B....

    yeah they went to the couch tour in seattle a few years back probably like 2005 or 6 i dont remember haha

  84. I.... M....

    theres a time and a place man :\

  85. D.... ....

    this is one of the best songs by one of the best bands

  86. A.... B....

    its wierd i hate screamo its fucking annoying but i like the fall of troy a lot. i just love all the riffs they're so crazy sounding but they are a lot simpler than they sound. its just technically magnificent! i saw them at the couch tour is was sick

  87. C.... ....

    i think the reason i love this band is because they have soo many genres on their albums that its hard not to like them. And plus thomas is a god....andrew is amazing...and franks pretty good as well.

  88. c.... i....

    Drifting and floating out of time,
    So sick and tired of all the fights.
    Cauterize your constant lies.
    Picture perfect portrait of a boyfriend...
    Best friends? Oh that's right...

  89. c.... i....

  90. i.... ....

    brain music.

    i think TFOT's main demographic is nerdy high school students. lol

  91. T.... W....

    Somehow I can do trigonometry faster when I listen to this song O_o

  92. c.... i....
