Famous Last Words - How The Mighty Mock The Weak Lyrics






Your heavy hateful gaze places all the weight and blame right on my shoulders
Meant to bring me down to the ground and shiver while the room gets colder and colder
You thought it worked out all so well
You thought you sent me down to hell
You thought it worked out all so well but know that I'm not dead yet
No I'm not dead yet

And how the mighty mock the weak
I'm not one of them so here's a promise I will keep
And I swear I will be free
Never again, rule over me

Well you can try to bring me down to a place where I feel guilty, lost, and lonely
I won't let that happen now
You can try your best but I won't let you break me
I should have seen the signs were there
But I could never be prepared
I should have seen the signs were there but I wouldn't accept it I was scared
No I'm not dead yet

And how the mighty mock the weak
I'm not one of them so here's a promise I will keep
And I swear I will be free
Never again (never again)
Rule over me

Well I'm not scared!
I'll make it through somehow
This isn't over now
All of my fears
I'll overcome somehow
I'll overcome somehow!

And how the mighty mock the weak
I'm not one of them so here's a promise I will keep
And I swear I will be free
Never again (never again)
Rule over me

  1. N.... S....

    I blasted this so much my neighbors are a fan of FLW now ❤️❤️❤️❤️

  2. N.... R....

    I am just going to say what everyone else is too afraid to say. Not their best stuff. It's good, but pales in comparison to Two Faced Charade. Sorry, the truth hurts. Still a great band though. I just know they can do better if they put their minds to it.

  3. T.... Z....

    still obsessed with this song. It describes my life so perfectly

  4. A.... P....

    Best song ever these guys got me into rock better then that porn fake rap music rappers have no skills this is real skill..

    A.... P....

    Not all rap is bad, I recommend NF, he has great songs and they’re meaningful too... you might like him xD

    A.... P....

    @Nope NopeNope OK thanks I'll check them out sorry about the rap lol I just think this type is better but we all got other taste in music

    A.... P....

    Yeah, its all good, i know what you mean, i prefer this genre too, i just feel that NF should get more recognition so ive been trying to tell others about him xD

  5. O.... P....

    i love this song

  6. M.... ....

    How is it that I am only discovering this masterpiece today??? 😭😍

  7. R.... E....

    Emotional Song

  8. �.... ....

    Best song on the album

  9. D.... d....

    "but i could never be prepared"

    you can hear the hitch in jt's voice when he says prepared that sends shivers down your spine...

    D.... d....

    Yessssssss

  10. S.... ....

    A fully acoustic album by FLW would just blow my head off my shoulders. The story they could come up with would be epic.

  11. K.... G....

    My favorite song of this album

  12. B.... b....

    So glad they don't have fangirls !

  13. J.... M....

    You know that this album is based in the 1980s

    J.... M....

    I thought it was the 50's...? Are you sure my dude?

    J.... M....

    Brandon Perez
    40's-50's
    dont know what this guy's talking about

  14. J.... N....

    I love this song so much! <3

  15. T.... C....

    I've been here since the beginning and I have to say your voice has come along very nicely I mean you always sounded really good don't get me wrong but now it's just absolutely beautiful like the progression of your vocals is one of the best I've ever seen fabulous job man keep up these good as songs I support you all the way flw is gonna go far man hopefully you guys will get to ice nine kills level popularity soon they are my favorite band but you guys are a close second I've been wanting both of you to break into the popular circle for years you guys are the only ones left I'm sharing you guys all over everything so more people can hear your potential cause you guys deserve a top slot

  16. K.... P....

    Man. This band is so amazing. When I first found them, they had such a smaller fan base. I'm so happy to see it growing. But they really need so much more attention. They aren't sell outs. They make amazing, catchy, meaningful music. It's truly amazing. I hope to see them in concert one day.

  17. A.... S....

    one of the most beautiful songs I've heard

  18. P.... ....

    I adore this band. This song is beautiful. They deserve more attention ♡

  19. T.... D....

    Ahhh fuck the song that gets me. To be completely honest, your voice is fucking amazing bro and y'all gotta start putting more melodic and acoustic songs together.

    T.... D....

    No, less acoustic more metalcore

  20. R.... C....

    😢😭

  21. M.... ....

    My favourite band... you guys deserve more recognition <3 Love you guys soooo much, and JT, you have inspired me more than you'll know... keep making such inspirational music <3 Love FLW

  22. E.... L....

    Is this song in drop D? Does anyone know or can tell

    E.... L....

    Echo Light Yea, it is in drop D

  23. B.... C....

    Please dont go full acoustic :( I love FLW so much but i beg you plz dont go acoustic :( :( :( #MetalCoreIsAmazing

    B.... C....

    They most likely won't go completely acoustic. But an acoustic every now and then isn't so bad ;)

    B.... C....

    I do agree, i dont mind this song the few more times ive heard it

    B.... C....

    Brandon x22
    It's stupid to assume they'd go full acoustic.

  24. J.... R....

    This song is in Drop D

  25. T.... M....

    ...and then "Marionette" kicks on, and I'm ready to start throwing down.

    But seriously, as a FLW fan since Two-Faced Charade, this album is phenomenal! This track is terrific, and I recommend getting a copy of the Special Edition if you can find it, just for the alternative version of this track. Those beats near the end...

  26. C.... ....

    as I listen to this for the 1000th time... I proceed to finally but the album, These guys are beyond amazing!!! good job FLW and RevivalRecs

    C.... ....

    YES! Thank you! Check out their awesome merch over at famouslastwords.merchnow.com

    C.... ....

    Revivalrecs Yes, good job. You guys are doing FLW justice, and I cant wait to see what else is in store

  27. r.... m....

    Love u guys! Dam rock on forever with peace

  28. J.... J....

    I love this band so much ❤

  29. M.... O....

    damm this song is soooooo amazing

    M.... O....

    Right? They start their new tour today with their label mates The Funeral Portrait! Check out the dates over at revivalrecs.com

    M.... O....

    really????

  30. b.... a....

    they really deserve more attention than they have :'(

    b.... a....

    brandon allman Well screaming is not really "main stream" so their going to need to pull an Avenged Sevenfold and drop the screaming.

    b.... a....

    Faddish BigFoot wtf... if they stop screaming then they're not even metalcore anymore gtfo and stop being crazy

    b.... a....

    I want to know where (metalcore) went from speedy Metallica type riffs with breakdowns to a more poetic sound or just ducking buh buh buh buh did buh buh type shit not trying to start anything but just want to know because metal core used to be a mix of metal and hardcore now its a mix of nu and hardcore with a slight of metal just my 2 cents

    b.... a....

    auto correct lol fucking duh duh duh b b b d duh duh dum duh duh type shit lol

    b.... a....

    If they were on Warped Tour just one time they would be huge. If they toured with bigger bands they would also be huge! They’ll get their someday!!!

  31. A.... K....

    I've never suffered to the point of Christine, the main character of the album, but we've all suffered, victimized, beaten, tortured, or in a grand total: someone/something has made our lives a living hell

    and this song deeply reflects my feelings of people and events, and the lyrics instantly made sense and made me feel something deep down inside.

    this song is the anthem for the abused, the call for the beaten, the words every one who needs help needs to hear

    A.... K....

    this song hit me like a freight train that was speeding toward a dark tunnel called "the past"

    A.... K....

    We are so glad that they were able to touch you with their songs! That means the world! <3

  32. T.... H....

    Shit I wish I could see them but they are not coming to Utah I fucking love there music and stories

    T.... H....

    They will be in Salt Lake City at Loading Dock on 12/5 with The Funeral Portrait!

  33. s.... g....

    listen to this everyday, keeps me going for one more day. 💘

    s.... g....

    we are glad this song has touched you so much <3

  34. D.... ....

    I really need the chords

  35. J.... B....

    I freaking love them so much, and this is definitely one of my favourites. I wish I could see them December 8th here in Seattle. ):

    J.... B....

    Thank you for the support! We wish you could see them in Seattle as well!

  36. B.... B....

    it just sucks that they got noticed at what I consider to be the end of the metalcore age. I do really believe that music is dying and that great bands like this just can't make it due to the decreasing demand for this style. couple that with the downloading age of music putting a stranglehold on the cash flow for bands and it's just a sad age we live in.....miss the 90s

    B.... B....

    Let's rebuild the scene!

    B.... B....

    same buddy. I'm 15.. and I love this genre more than half my familly

    B.... B....

    no this genre is not dying. There are a ridiculously amount of metalcore bands right now and there certainly are extremely poplar ones. It is just very hard for a band to get big.

  37. B.... B....

    these guys are great. I just hate that it's probably gonna take a completely different sound for them to take off. two faced charade will prob be a thing of the past when they blow up. really hope not though

    B.... B....

    Bedsheets Bailey bmth style xD

  38. K.... K....

    You guys know how to make amazing songs!! be it acoustic or rock you're all very talented!!

  39. J.... R....

    cant wait to see these guys again. at the last concert JT and Evan recognized me which i thought was awesome. they really care and connect with their fans. i even got to sing on stage with them in kentucky

    J.... R....

    We are glad you had such a good experience! Stay tuned for more tour announcements coming soon! www.revivalrecs.com

  40. R.... C....

    love you guys so much! your music is so beautiful.

  41. g.... ....

    Man - this band defined a year of my life in 2014, and I thought they had it made with Council of the Dead. This band has matured so much and this album is such a seamless and interesting spin on a storyline. Well done FLW, you've got me again.

  42. L.... /....

    GUYS MY EYES ARE LEAKING! WTF HELP

    Really wish they did more acoustic or piano songs like brothers in arms or this. It's so amazing 😭😭😭

    J.... G....

    SAI DA PEDRA GERALDO

    J.... G....

    Metalcore isnt mainstream at all.

    J.... G....

    Oh I get it, you're one of those kids who think they're cool because they don't like "mainstream music".. which is funny because. yeah.. dude.. Metalcore is pretty mainstream. Roflmao

    J.... G....

    +DE4DVEIN Metalcore is pretty mainstream. But that doesn't change if it's good or not, and this band is kinda 50% metalcore 50% hardcore punk.

    J.... G....

    EdgeLord DK Oh for sure, I was just responding to the guy saying metal core wasn't at all mainstream. I dig it. FLW here is one of my all time favorite bands \m/

  64. M.... M....

    love this song, one I've listened to the most

  65. A.... A....

    So here she is gathering her hopes and courage to fight, please add in any info if you can

    A.... A....

    IxAmXGhoul X that's my thoughts too so I'm right there with you I feel like maze In my mind, the judged, the mighty mock the weak and marionette is a fight of trying to convince herself she is innocent and can take back control of her mind to become stronger to defeat her husband

    A.... A....

    Gregory Gonzalez she is basically trying to pull herself together and make a goal into waking up from the high dose and setting a goal to save her son or kill the husband as it was told in "tear me apart". In short she is fighting within herself

    A.... A....

    Yes, couldnt say it better

  66. J.... 1....

    Omg tears fall. No I'm not dead yet.. hits deep

  67. B.... ....

    One of my favorite songs :')

  68. B.... A....

    this song is so perfect so emotional and different from the other stuff on the album and previous albums this whole album is perfect I am downloading as soon as I can

  69. J.... A....

    ay sii!! xD!!

  70. A.... G....

    So emotional... God... They stole my heart now. Will quickly download

    A.... G....

    you mean "will quickly buy"
    lul

    A.... G....

    Yeah you can download it but you should really buy it to support the band. I met these guys two years back when they came to Florida and they are some of the nicest, most down to Earth people on the planet. If anyone deserves your support, it's these guys.

    A.... G....

    sorry for my bad english... i dont know too much

    A.... G....

    @***** yo dude, we all know you can be a pirate, but why would you be a pirate if you can be a superhero?!!!! lul

    A.... G....
