Lord Of The Lost - Waiting For You To Die Lyrics






In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder
I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

I've put you on an podestal it's true
Now I want to kick it from under you
Your neck in a noose
My heart in a whirl
So let the ebony flag unfurl

Your cruellest nightmare is my dream
My dream come true

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder
I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

One push, you're drowning
In the boating lake
At last a drama that you did not fake
Scream for a lifebuoy
But I'd throw a wreath
To honour what is dying beneath

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder
I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

Your cruellest nightmare is my dream
My dream come true

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
But all I am doing is waiting
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

In another world I would slay you
I would martyr and mortify
In another world I would murder
I'd confess and I'd do my time
In another world I would sing you
A crimson lullaby
But all I am doing is waiting

I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you to die

  16. C.... ....

    Awesome! I'm in love!

  17. b.... ....

    why are so many of their songs so in need of a climax...after the last choruses I always wait for like...electric guitars to kick in, the key to change, the singer singing a higher octave or harmony, just anything. But I'm practically always disappointed, yet, for some reason, eager for more

  18. J.... P....

    its so dark and i love this

  19. W.... O....

    в другом мире я бы погубил тебя, 
    Замучил бы и умертвил, 
    В другом мире я бы убил, 
    Признался бы и отсидел бы срок. 
    В другом мире я бы спел тебе 
    Багровую колыбельную, 
    Но всё, что я делаю — это жду, 
    Я жду тебя 1, 
    Жду того, что ты умрёшь. 

    Я возвёл тебя на пьедестал, это правда, 
    Сейчас же я хочу выбить его из-под тебя. 
    Твоя шея в петле, 
    Моё сердце в смятении, 
    Так пусть же развернётся флаг цвета эбенового дерева 2. 

    Твой самый мучительный кошмар — моя мечта, 
    Моя мечта становится реальностью. 

    В другом мире я бы погубил тебя, 
    Замучил бы и умертвил, 
    В другом мире я бы убил, 
    Признался бы и отсидел бы срок. 
    В другом мире я бы спел тебе 
    Багровую колыбельную, 
    Но всё, что я делаю — это жду, 
    Я жду тебя, 
    Жду того, что ты умрёшь. 

    Толчок — и ты тонешь 
    В озере, при катании на лодке 3— 
    Наконец-то драма, не разыгранная тобой 4. 
    Взываешь о спасательном круге, — 
    Но я бы бросил венок, 
    Чтобы почтить то, что умирает внизу, подо мной. 

    В другом мире я бы погубил тебя, 
    Замучил бы и умертвил, 
    В другом мире я бы убил, 
    Признался бы и отсидел бы срок. 
    В другом мире я бы спел тебе 
    Багровую колыбельную, 
    Но всё, что я делаю — это жду, 
    Я жду тебя, 
    Жду того, что ты умрёшь. 

    Твой самый мучительный кошмар — моя мечта, 
    Моя мечта становится реальностью. 

    В другом мире я бы погубил тебя, 
    Замучил бы и умертвил, 
    Но всё, что я делаю — это жду, 
    Я жду тебя, 
    Жду того, что ты умрёшь. 

    В другом мире я бы погубил тебя, 
    Замучил бы и умертвил, 
    В другом мире я бы убил, 
    Признался бы и отсидел бы срок. 
    В другом мире я бы спел тебе 
    Багровую колыбельную, 
    Но всё, что я делаю — это жду, 
    Жду тебя, 
    Я жду тебя, 
    Я жду тебя, 
    Жду того, что ты умрёшь.

  20. G.... ....

    This song is like the antitheses of a love song, a hate song that one would dedicate to a special hated one.

  21. A.... w....

    That lyrics is so badass😍😍😍

  22. L.... S....

    3:14 where's the 5th guy's feet?!?!?

  23. J.... I....

    did he just say pa-DAS-til? LOL!! Great song otherwise!

  24. H.... I....

    This song is masterpiece!!!

  25. t.... ....

    an dem tag, an dem Chris sich endgültig von seinem Bärtchen trennt, geb ich einen aus

  26. R.... ....

    Anyone also noticed the smiley face on the coffin at 0:49? Just above the man's head. Also, is it just me or are the two parts where Chris precisely describes the person's death by hanging (Your neck in a noose, my heart in a whirl) and the drowning part (One push, you're drowning in the boating late) just so graceful, I find them so poetic and beautiful.

  27. S.... C....

    this shit is super cheesy and dumb

  28. x.... a....

    this song is just so chill and relaxing

  29. M.... M....

    😍😍😍😍😍

  30. M.... M....

    😍😍😍😍😍

  31. J.... C....

    ademas q yo soy cantante y me gusta el metal

  32. R.... ....

    1:56 - 2:20 That's so spectacular, the lyrics are always so well put together I can't help but to point them out. So melodramatic and nicely dark.

    R.... ....

    Olsen rasmus

    R.... ....

    Rasmus olsen

  33. T.... W....

    So ridiculous that they couldn't get entry to the US; I was looking forward to seeing them.

  34. Y.... R....

    Video remind Sentenced - ever frost

  35. C.... L....

    Interesting...

  36. B.... L....

    First time hearing this band. Mind Blown!

  37. n.... !....

    So viel stärker als Lighthouse!! Simpel und so auf die Fresse! Musik machen können se einfach!⌛🕛

  38. M.... W....

    Wow. Diese Stimme. Dieser Text. Hammer. Gänsehaut pur

  39. k.... ....

    lol I wonder who pissed him off?

    k.... ....

    good one😂

  40. A.... B....

    To all people who hurt me - must listen!

  41. S.... B....

    Danke für den neuen Ohrwurm! Meine Kollegen werden bestimmt Abstand halten, wenn ich das Lied leise vor mich hinsinge 😂....ein wirklich genialer Song. Love it!!!

  42. P.... ....

    Dedicated to my former dysfunctional family and friends. This is why I have disengaged from you all!

  43. T.... L....

    Beyond great! Love the song an video. Totally in love. Great job guys 😘😘😘

  44. l.... ....

    great song but damn chris looks like shit :(

  45. L.... L....

    Oh my god, I'm so happy that there will be another tour this year! I can't wait to see you guys and enjoy your incredible music skills!

  46. N.... D....

    sounds like let it go from frozen

  47. W.... B....

    So they parted ways with Out of Line and signed to Napalm Records ?
    Hopefully they will get more recognition now

  48. N.... N....

    Great video. But I miss Bo, very much

    N.... N....

    Where is he?

    N.... N....

    Leon Corvin he left around Christmas Time last year but it was announced on New Years so he has been gone for around a year now. That’s why Pi replaced him. Then Tobi left a few months ago so they’ve had a touring drummer.

    N.... N....

    Sursie Metzger did they have an argument or something? I notice they don't follow each other on instagram which sounds silly but they used to all follow each other

  49. S.... 6....

    Where is Toby ?

    S.... 6....

    He will have to take a break at Lord Of The Lost, because of professional and time reasons.

    S.... 6....

    liediawa Oh , Thanks

  50. Y.... s....

    Hermoso tema 😍 beautiful

  51. K.... 2....

    Schande über mich ich habe zwar das erste Swan Album, habe aber noch nicht wirklich rein gehört. Ich glaube das hole ich schnell nach °^° dieses Lied istvso genial ☆^☆ ich liebe diese Stimme einfach so sehr.

  52. L.... C....

    excellent as always :D

  53. P.... 3....

    Die raue, düstere Stimme des Lords passt einfach perfekt zu der atmosphärischen orchestralen Untermalung.
    "Swan Songs" unterschied sich in einer besonderen Weise von den sonst so krachenden und stampfenden LOTL-Alben und entfachte ihre Magie auf eine ganz andere Art und Weise und genau das machte diese Platte für mich zu einem Spektakel.
    Freue mich sehr auf "Swan Songs II" diesen Oktober. Lord Of The Lost haben mich bisher nie enttäuscht.

  54. t.... ....

    Looking forward to another Swan Songs album,I loved the first one.Really like this song!

  55. M.... R....

    Thank you all! I am totally hooked on this song. One of my daughters is a funeral director/mortician, so it's kinda funny in that light. Your voice is so addicting & love the video! Sehr gut bestimmt!

  56. x.... ....

    I could love this song. The music is great as the usual. But it is hard for me with the words because the death not so appyling to me as a subject.

  57. B.... K....

    Woow! Its GREAT! <3 Poland loves this song! <3

    B.... K....

    That's true ;)!

    B.... K....

    True !!

  58. A.... U....

    Mein Lord du hast dich mal wieder selbst übertroffen ;) dieser Song is so herrlich böse aber mega genial ich höre ihn mir sehr gerne an und freu mich im November auf die Akkustik Tour

    lg Jessy

  59. A.... S....

    Это Шедевр! (передает ощущения,настроение,даже погода в клипе чувствуется,даже если это просто клип)

  60. C.... M....

    Wow. It's stylish, gothic, really beautiful. Love song and video! And, as a huge KMFDM fan, I was really glad to see Sascha in video :)

  61. M.... T....

    Have never got around to hearing these guys before but had seen the name....this is the first one I have heard and I'm hooked. I'm scared to click on others in case they don't come close to this beauty haha

    M.... T....

    Click all their songs. They have so many styles you can't keep up with them. I was like that and now i have so much songs i love. Completly different from each other.

    M.... T....

    Raining Stars got me hooked and it's a pretty awesome video.

    M.... T....

    Exactly as xydoit said, if I can reccomend, check out 'In Silence' and 'Raining Stars', next to 'See You Soon', they are my most favorite.

    M.... T....

    click everywhere, you won't be disappointed!

    M.... T....

    Click all the songs!!! I started yesterday and I cant stop! They are all amazing!!

  62. K.... S....

    The lyrics are catchy. Just don't sing them in the open, among unknown people :D

    K.... S....

    Haha if you think so, if you have a really strong heart and know what is wrong and write then you can sing this song everywhere!

    K.... S....

    @Brandy Gilliland you point this song on 1 special person that is a girlfriend or something?

    K.... S....

    I don't agree, I would say you think way to small............ :(

    K.... S....

    No, most definitely sing this song among strangers and in the open! Check for their reactions It's fun!

    K.... S....

    @Luke Christ I especially enjoy this one at family gatherings because one of my daughters is a Funeral Director/Mortician! We joke it should be the ad for her company! Peace all!

  63. S.... K....

    Can't wait for swan Songs II <3

  64. T.... B....

    I love it so MUCH!!! It's even as precious for me as "Lost in a heartbeat" thanks to which I discovered such a great band and a talented singer with the most touching Voice that makes my soul shiver!

  65. K.... ....

    Please more Like this. Luv it <3

  66. �.... �....

    I am delighted! I really liked it. I look forward to October 6!

  67. I.... 2....

    I love it

  68. s.... s....

    the new song waiting for you to die So emotionally sad gloomy beautiful song

  69. M.... 7....

    Cruellest with 2 L's? Have i been spelling it wrong?x

    M.... 7....

    Gilead Maerlyn learning is fun :) x

    M.... 7....

    Lord777, it should be "my dream comes true" instead of "my dream come true", shouldn't it?

    M.... 7....

    Кира Д
    No.
    The sentence is not just "My dream come true", which would be incorrect indeed. It is "Your cruellest nightmare is my dream come true". In the first sentence, "come" is the verb of the phrase and it's at present tense, so it should be "comes". But in the second sentence, the one in the song, the verb is "is" and "come" is a past participle (irregular verb: come - came - come).

    M.... 7....

    Gilead Maerlyn, oh, thank you so much)))

    M.... 7....

    You're welcome.

  70. �.... �....

    The lyrics really speak to me, I felt that way about my ex-wife for so long but I ran out of hate, now I don't care one way or another if she lives or dies. I wouldn't even bother goin' to the funeral.

  75. A.... ....

    Fuck...they always impress me!

  76. m.... a....

    Hahahahaha

  77. Z.... ....

    Gotta admit - I was waiting for heavy guitars and electronics. Still it's a good song but... come on, we're waiting for something different here :D

    Z.... ....

    Zombot This is the 1st single for "Swan Songs II", which will be like "Swan Songs", a pure acoustic album. See info text of the video :)

    Z.... ....

    Ah, dammit, didn't read taht :D Man, I was hoping for a full on LOTL album on Napalm Records. Guess I'll have to wait a bit for one like that, I guess :D
