Lamb Of God - The Undertow Lyrics






You always needed people like me
Directions for your fingers to point
A crooked dealer's blaming spree
I'm guaranteed to disappoint
You're weak and scared and cutting raw deals
But fortune always favours the bold
I'll bet it all and crush your bluff
I'll never yield nor ever fold
And I won't shoulder the blame
I am the one who's left to take the fall
I fight the constant undertow

You always needed a distraction
A target for the stones that you thrown
To draw attention from your actions
I'm tailor made so lock & load
Oh, you're telling tales You spineless coward
Your word's not worth its weight in shit
Back against the wall, belligerent
I won't shoulder the blame

So high and mighty But when the bottom drops out
You're gonna find me standing where you left me
Deal the last hand, let the cards fall where they may
From your castle made of sand you're looking down at me
So high and mighty But when the bottom drops out
You'll have to face me waiting where you left me

  1. D.... K....

    I can die in peace if they'll ever come to The Netherlands again. Still haven't had the opportunity to actually see them live. College years are cool and such, but for visiting concerts it's a pain in the ass. Finally got a fulltime job so let's pray

  2. T.... ....

    The lyrics posted in description aren't accurate, but the song audio is high quality.

  3. J.... W....

    Everytime I introduce someone to LOG, I say "this is how modern metal should sound." This song is an example of that.

  4. H.... ....

    I will take hostage if possible a section of mutts and peanut heads and continually reincarnate them into horror in a galactic gulag I am vlad the impaler I am smarter and older than you are on your best day you are not better than me on your worst day so saith judge Judy

  5. H.... ....

    Nobody has ever faced this war and nobody has ever taken to it like a pig to mud so fuck off and hail the nordics nobody wins against them overtly or covertly and in fact the reptilian drive is obvious and fatal to their interests

  6. H.... ....

    I am a German that loves bloody battle and yet have few problems with the weak strategy of muh head fuck little girl asymmetric war of the peanut heads who are quite stupid and ugly and will one day be impaled

  7. H.... ....

    I am a peanut head alien that has failed

  8. W.... W....

    You'll have to face me
    WAITING WHERE YOU LEFT MEEEEEE

  9. W.... C....

    Take this one straight into HEAVY WEIGHT TRAINING×CARDIO. Completely crush that shit to a level that you are getting looks from the average non trainers like u r tha hulk!!!!!!!!! Lmfao😈💪

  10. L.... x....

    Log never die

  11. T.... B....

    One of the best songs they've ever made if not the best!!! Fucking sick

  12. G.... c....

    Desolation is hands down is the best song off this album

  13. T.... ....

    Story of my life.

  14. I.... S....

    This band has always had punk / hardcore roots. Don't get your panties in a twist.

  15. T.... K....

    I love every album from the no 1 band in the world! They passed Pantera for me... it was Death Angel, Metal Church, Megadeth and Nuclear Assualt! 🤘🏻🇺🇸😎

  16. L.... 5....

    Like si estas por vadym 💪

    L.... 5....

    vuamoss

  17. M.... ....

    Música leve pra relaxar

  18. D.... ....

    I woke up this morning with this song stuck in my head but couldn’t figure out which song it was, settled for the song undertow thinking I didn’t know this one but it is a sick album done by Tool. Then I noticed the person who posted this song is named after the tool song stink fist and his profile pic is tool album cover. What a coincidence

    D.... ....

    When you have this problem again, just type 1 single lyric in google. You'll be given the answer instantaniously.

  19. M.... I....

    Anyone who said this album was bad when it came out can suck my nuts

  20. M.... ....

    I know hardcore LoG fans say this albums the worst but damn they are firing on all cylinders in this.

    M.... ....

    I'm a die hard L.O.G can and I think that Wrath is probably the weakest full album

    M.... ....

    @Kyle Ashton thats one of my favorite O_o haha

  21. T.... K....

    I finally saw them! With Slayer, anthrax and testament June 17 sugarland Texas 🤘🏼🇺🇸

  22. D.... ....

    the first line in this song sounds like a quote from scarface

  23. T.... C....

    3:52 .... Holy shitttt....!!

  24. t.... ....

    Lovin this band more all the time. Can't wait to see them with Testament/ Slayer.

  25. L.... T....

    THE UNDERTOW!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  26. D.... P....

    Ha! Gota love it.!!

  27. N.... L....

    One of their more technical album's, bit too clean for me, but that's what you get with modern recording equipment :3

  28. J.... ....

    I FIGHT THE CONSTANT UNDERTOWWWWW!!!!

  29. T.... H....

    always amazing! damn these guys!

  30. J.... L....

    GOD DAMNIT THIS SONG MAKES ME WANT TO DESTROY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  31. M.... ....

    +Drend So many corkers on that record, just don't get it. I think the AtPB - Sacrament run was pretty golden though. To me, metal bands seem to always have that sweet spot in the middle of their career where they're still young and passionate, but have ironed out the kinks in their early days (musical shortcomings and, of course, production).

  32. D.... H....

    Holy Fuck! I've been, for lack of better terms, "gone" for awhile. was not around when this album was released. How in the fuck is this not a well liked album. Haven't listened to it all but damn this is some good shit!

  33. B.... S....

    I have every lamb of god album and every song punches me in the fucking face

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

    fucking kill SOMETHING!!!!
    jk....

  35. M.... ....

    For such an ill-regarded album this has some seriously amazing songs, I just don't get it. Ghost Walking, Desolation, Visitation, Invictus, and -f course -the Undertow, are all fantastic tracks. Best album since Ashes, hands down.

    M.... ....

    Mac to the end is pretty dope

    M.... ....

    @joshAKAtheman king me is easily one of the best and most heart felt songs Randy has ever written

    M.... ....

    There is Insurrection too

    M.... ....

    "Your words are worth it's weight in shit" kills me every time.

    M.... ....

    Fucking Guilty man!
    "Waiting for the ghost to BITE!

  36. J.... L....

    fuckin GNARLY!

  37. B.... ....

    This song is the most hardcore of theirs at this point! \nn/

  38. M.... G....

    2:48 holy fuck that's mean !

    M.... G....

    best part!

    M.... G....

    yes, absolutely! this song is only this part

    M.... G....

    So fucking epic!!!

    M.... G....

    fucking awesome

  39. Z.... ....

    I know why they dont play this on the radio. Its too savage. If this was on the airwaves and someone went out of time at a stop sign, Id probably fly out the drivers seat trying to beat the dudes ass. Itd wreck towns. Too fuckin raw for all these miley cyrus noobs out there

    Z.... ....

    lol seriously shit would go crazy

  40. D.... B....

    Randy may just go down as the greatest metal vocalist (in terms of growls/screams) of all time. I can't think of anyone on par with him...tim lambesis would be the only other one i would think of comparing him to.

    D.... B....

    +Danny Bosty PHIL ANSELMO! randy got his influence from pantera

    D.... B....

    +John Last doubt it

    D.... B....

    +Danny Bosty Corey taylor during iowa was pretty fuckin good to, now he lost most of his voice

    D.... B....

    Randy has the most range on his scream/growl period.

  41. T.... p....

    " oh, your telling tales...your words are woth it's weight in shit..., you spinless coward!" Randy's words to all the Lamb of God haters!!!

  42. o.... o....

    this is the best fucking metal song ever!!

    o.... o....

    I do know It´s a personal opinion,  the riff is amazing. Thanks for your advice, it couldn´t be better. I know by far all the LOG´s albums. They are fucking great. From New american gospel to wrath (but no so much Burn the priest). I wouldn´t know to choose my favourite. You?

    o.... o....

    Sorry for your album (and car too) jeje. Ruin and as palaces are great songs but I prefer wrath too, Perhaps the two last albums are the best, anyway i really like and listen a lot all of them. What about the new song?, still echoes is really great. the new album in July.

    o.... o....

    +opinio opi Black Label for me lol

  43. g.... ....

    My new favorite song

  44. A.... C....

    the song starts getting shitty at 4:47 

    A.... C....

    2funi4me
    le9gaglefunny
    funnymemexd

    A.... C....

    Alex Cory gg

    A.... C....

    gg? is this CS?

    A.... C....

    @Benny S. NO AWP

    A.... C....

    *door's stuck!*

  45. L.... J....

    WOW 
    Adler has used great long kick sound ı love it 

  46. E.... L....

    I understand why people don't like this album, but holy shit, this song is my new favorite from LoG.
    Easily a 9.5/10

    E.... L....

    This is my favorite LOG album.

    E.... L....

    after all these years, I still don't understand why people don't like this album. Not even a single song. LoG is godlike

  47. C.... ....

    Lamb of God will never bring out anything to top the Ashes album. Their most brutal, punchy-ist real proper metal album. I still like their new stuff but Ashes was their pinnacle of greatness.

    C.... ....

    +John Last mine is Ashes of The Wake

    C.... ....

    CorrosiveJapsEye ashes all the way

    C.... ....

    CorrosiveJapsEye wrath is better

    C.... ....

    you do not know wrath

    C.... ....

    It's one of the only albums on my phone, I swear I've heard the whole album at least 500 times over.

  48. D.... e....

    To settle the "Genre war" on this fantastic band. Wikipedia has them pegged as Groove/New wave american metal.. THats it.. get the fuck over it and rock the fuck on.

  49. S.... H....

    Lamb of God has always been the only metal band with screaming vocal's that I have ever liked, and just like every song they do Randy fucking kills it in this one. This, to me, is far and away their best album with Wrath coming in a close second.

    S.... H....

    as the palaces burn is pretty dang good though

    S.... H....

    Could not agree more dude, I think they get better with every release, they just fucking kill it every time \m/

    S.... H....

    I love them all

    S.... H....

    completely agree, resolution and wrath are their best. They can do no wrong

  50. N.... F....

    Can't people just fucking listen to MUSIC?! Fuck, have to label this shit label that shit. JUST FUCKING LISTEN AND SHUT UP!!

  51. M.... L....

    I;m travelling to WMXXX I hope Vince doesn't Fk it up !!!!

  52. C.... H....

    Scream at 2:44 is literally one of the most brutal things I have ever fucking heard.

    C.... H....

    The best part is, it sounds the exact same live. My favorite Randy Blythe scream is from Laid to Rest. 

  53. M.... S....

    It's my favorite mixture of a can of whoop-ass and a can of DIE. XD

  54. J.... T....

    I womder who disliked this ..i feel like punching him

    J.... T....

    251 people should punch him in exactly the same spot

    J.... T....

    RegamusMaximus lol. Thank you that's so beautiful dude. 🤧

    J.... T....

    Honestly

  55. J.... B....

    Stop the genre wars guys. please. I love these guys. And cannibal corpse. But I also listen to other metal. I listen to (and love) metalcore, hardcore, deathcore, death metal, metal, rock and countless others. you don't have to confine yourself to just one.

    J.... B....

    Me too, I don't like it Metalcore, Nu metal, Black and Doom

    J.... B....

    Metalcore and Nu metal are gay

    J.... B....

    @Alfonso Patiño ok Boomer

  56. E.... ....

    Saw it in live;
    Cummed,
    Twice

  57. C.... D....

    one song that is the best example for that: Black Label

  58. A.... L....

    2:12 that scream gives me chills everytime I hear it, Randy is a fuckin beast \m/

  59. N.... ....

    Fucking olaf

  60. R.... ....

    Saw them at GMM 2012 and they fucking rocked!

  61. T.... ....

  62. S.... L....

    Olaf FTW.

  63. m.... g....

    Log never dissapoints

  64. c.... ....

    Holy shit! Dimebag and Exodus got together for a riff jam!!! Fucking great riffing! \m/

  65. M.... B....

    Chuck who?

  66. S.... H....

    Preach, Sir Randy, Preach. This song gets me through the tough times when others are judging sooooo harshly. Thank YOU Lamb of God. Thank You!!

  67. S.... O....

    i came wow.. sooo brutal love it love it love it gah it just overloads i can barely explain haha i just want to rip my face off and fdsajhlfdsha fucking sooo good

  68. S.... O....

    that's why ruin is so brutal lol

  69. S.... H....

    i believe the term your looking for is single string chugging. lol lack of talent guitarists trying to follow a fairly talented drummer. metal is like an apple. no one likes the core.. ...as it should be. ;)

    S.... H....

    Did you actually just call Log guitarists talentless? Gf all credibility

  70. r.... ....

    epic breakdown

  71. J.... M....

    BADASS!

  72. m.... ....

    The greatest metal band alive!

  73. M.... C....

    Excellent Work-out music!

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

    @TheOriginalOwnage excellent >:)

  75. N.... A....

    RANDYfuckingBLYTHE!!

  76. V.... J....

    @AP93Playa There are no "metalcore" breakdowns in this album. None of that predictable shit to be found on Resolution. This particular breakdown should be shown to all the metalcore kids as an example of how to do a breakdown correctly. In this song, the breakdown is a fucking heavy-ass RIFF, instead of that predictable chugging syncopation.

  77. A.... ....

    @violentlymadkow525 yup, but this one is what i call a REAL metal breakdown. i havent listened to this album yet, did they finally get rid of the metalcorish ones? i´ve also noticed they´ve included more solos so that´s cool

  78. T.... ....

    @kungfuman82 The core genres are disgusting. However, this is groove and pulls its abilities off well.

  79. M.... ....

    This album kicks ass!!! Go buy it people, they deserve it!!

  80. M.... M....

    i love this song, but King Me is prolly me fave song off of this album!

  81. A.... ....

    @violentlymadkow525 Agreed. Breakdowns can be bad-ass and I'm certainly not against them like people who have knee-jerk reactions against any music with the word "core" in it, but I think that many lesser bands abuse them and they become stale. LOG knows how to use them to their maximum effect and the result is usually a hole in my wall and broken knuckles.

  82. J.... D....

    my mind is being mentally fucked by how amazing there new album is

  83. J.... G....

    2:46 nuff said

  84. D.... R....

    Sounds like it came from Ashes of the Wake

    D.... R....

    LOG wishes lol

  85. B.... L....

    @Sparkxzzz check out torrent sites its easy to find

  86. v.... ....

    Probably my favorite song off the album so far. They dont always have breakdowns in their songs like some bands do but when they do they rip assholes open!!

  87. E.... C....

    Great track. LOG!!!
