Overkill - Coma Lyrics






Sleeping with a time bomb
Rumble in my dreams
Innocence been long gone
Fall apart at the seams

Looking through the windows, walking through the doors
I can't help this feeling, I been here before
Everything is different, everything the same
I know the rules. I played the game

Cry out! Tell me what its gonna be
Reach out! Is everything the same?
Cry out! Tell me what you really see
Reach out

As a coma steals my name
Coma! Coma!

Wake to an explosion
Nothing seemed so real
Innocence corroding
Alone is all I feel

Reaching out to no one, knowing no one's there
Afraid to be afraid of another nameless fear
I got all the reasons, don't need no more
Blinded by illusions, locked behind the door

An' a coma stole my name
Coma! Coma!

Sleeping now forever
Murdered in my dreams
Innocence was never, never, never
Goin' to extremes

Busting through the windows, kickin' down the doors
Standing up for me, never did before
Now I lay me down to sleep, and if I die before I wake

Cry out! Tell me what you really see
Reach out! Is everything the same?
Cry out! Tell me what it's gonna be
Reach out! An' a coma stole my name
Coma! Coma! Coma!

I'm outta the dive an' comin' alive

    🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

  3. o.... ....

    I bought this on tape in the Istanbul Bazaar, about '91/92.

  4. G.... R....

    I remember vividly when they did a gig at a small club in Middletown NY called Sportland Cafe way back in '94. They opened with this \m/

  5. R.... ....

    I am into Overkill ,Flotsam and Heathen for 30 years now and I still prefer the old School vibe

    R.... ....

    Great bands

  6. R.... ....

    Best album of this band inmo

    R.... ....

    Totally. Definitely. Without a doubt.

  7. S.... ....

    This was a fucking Thrash record back in the day and still is. Sadly it was not recognized as that back then by the critics in mags and fanzines. This led Over Kill to change the sound and not be Over Kill anymore, at least for me. The follow up records sucked pretty much.

  8. I.... M....

    Just saw a comment on the new machine song that Overkill is a metallica ripoff I just have one question why do people like that still live on this planet

  9. S.... 8....

    3:13 that bassline!

  10. X.... ....

    2019 still listening.

  11. E.... U....

    I got it when it came out in cassette format. Great great album.

  12. L.... C....

    THIS SONG PLAYS IN OUR HEADS WHEN WE ARE IN A COMA***

  13. P.... W....

    Beginning sounds like suite sister Marie from Operation Mindcrime.

    P.... W....

    HERE WE GO AGAIN// I LOVE EARLY QUEENSRYCHE// OVERKILL AND QUEENSRYCHE ARE APPLES AND ORANGES// PLEASE PEOPLE STOP THE COMPARISONS// IF THAT IS THE CASE THEN ALL MODERN HIP HOP SOUNDS THE FUCKIN SAME***

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

    Evil intro... love it

  15. K.... W....

    Love overkill.

  16. M.... S....

    The intro is very long

    M.... S....

    Only if you have ADD

  17. z.... ....

    Why isn't there a "Big 5" with Overkill on the bill!!!?

    z.... ....

    BECAUSE OVERKILL IS THE BIG 5 !!!!THAT MEANS ALL OTHER THRASH BANDS TAKE THE LATE BUS!

    z.... ....

    THERE IS A BIG 5// ( OVERKILL×5= THE BIG 5)***

  18. z.... ....

    What a shredding opening song!! Yes please!

  19. M.... G....

    It wasn't ahhh too slow enough for the snotty girls in school but I would only turn it up louder, then as loud as it would go,....

  20. M.... G....

    This entire album is what put a guitar in my hands back in the day. I FN LOOOOVVVVEEE EEEIIIIIITTTTTT!!!!!

  21. F.... O....

    24 posers disliked this video

  22. d.... ....

    I never got around what thrash fans like about this terribly boring abomination of a shit band

  23. A.... S....

    LOVE COMA. LOVE THIS INTRO. SO BADASS. NICE GUITAR WORK
    THIS WHOLE ALBUM KICKS ASS
    A SOLID FUCKIN 10
    🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

  24. C.... R....

    Los solos de coma! Fuuuuck

  25. s.... i....

    OK I BEEN OVERKILL FAN 30 YEARS AND YES THAT OLD PIC OF ME !! WHAT ALBUM IS THE BEST IT HORRORSCOPE OR THE YEARS OF DECAY....I say horrorscope

    s.... i....

    shannon ingram years of decay for me but just barely

    s.... i....

    shannon...Personally for me it's Taking Over!

    s.... i....

    Years of Decay for me, but this one is sick!!! Arguably their fastest album to date!

  26. a.... s....

    Fuck hell yeah

  27. G.... C....

    You stole the batwing from AVenged Seven!

    G.... C....

    it is quite opposite mate...Over kill plays metal when avenged plays with a dolls...

    G.... C....

    Gregory Chri, I find that VERY hard to believe as Overkill was yrs b4 A7x

  28. J.... B....

    genius!!!!!!

  29. p.... p....

    What a fuckin' great thrash album ! especially the 4 first songs

  30. F.... M....

    queensryche identical song....copycats..shit band

    F.... M....

    I come back to listen to this and I see you bitch even more about something utterly false. Get your ass out of here you poser.

  31. U.... T....

    old school of thrash metal😈

  32. P.... ....

    This whole album could have just been a greatest hits compilation.

  33. A.... ....

    Saw them on this tour. Up front, DD's Bass shook the walls!

  34. D.... B....

    What does coma steals my name mean ??

    D.... B....

    It basically means that the state of unconsciousness in which a person cannot be awakened stole Bobby Blitz's name. So for a while he actually was a nameless person. Somehow he managed to take the name back though.

  35. T.... K....

    Fastest Overkill song?

    T.... K....

    Todor Kolev i say to you another artist.
    Bonded by blood Psyhotic Pulse.

    T.... K....

    Bare Bones?

  36. w.... d....

    That intro! Then all HELL! THRASH TILL DEATH!

    w.... d....

    And beyond death!

  37. F.... M....

    they stole queensryche intro...shit band ...all riffs ..are metallicas like..exodus....very mediocre

    F.... M....

    The absurdity of these claims doesn't convince me that you're sincere. What Queensryche intro did they steal? How are these riffs anything like Metallica? The only riff I can think of that comes close to Metallica is Elimination, and even that one is still distinguishable from Master Of Puppets. I don't mind that you dislike Overkill, but these are some dumb reasons.

    F.... M....

    SISTER MARY QUEENSRYCHE...YES AND FOR ME ....THEY WERE JUST AN AVERAGE BAND......YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT MY OPINMION..AND WATCH YOUR TONGUE

    F.... M....

    They sound almost nothing alike. The intro melody to Coma cycles quite slowly, high to low, and has no noticeable gap between each cycle; basically continuous steps down. The one in Suite Sister Mary has much shorter cycles, has a noticeable gap at the end of each cycle, and most importantly it doesn't build up twice like it does in Coma, it just plays right into the song. Hell, I don't even have to be able to read music to compare these two it seems. I suppose your level of analysis here was similar tuning, and perhaps you're right, but that isn't stealing, otherwise some music genres would be an entertainment monopoly with no variety.

    And no, I don't have to accept your opinion if you're incorrect, evidence here ^^^^^^

  38. J.... L....

    In '96 this was the first song I'd play on my walkman after strapping on my board and hitting my first downhil. Every morning without fail.

  39. P.... E....

    PlayStation Exclusives loves Overkill

  40. 9.... i....

    The soft music was loud & clear, when the METAL kicked in its like the volume was lower or something.

    9.... i....

    Happen alot to me on all music. Not sure why. Its annoying for sure

  41. D.... D....

    Perdón por el laig malo

  42. D.... D....

    Es mi banda favorita

  43. B.... K....

    Why the gay long intro?

    B.... K....

    Brion Klein It’s the album’s opener.

    B.... K....

    That`s only for you !

    B.... K....

    piss off

    B.... K....

    I really like , it fuck you .

    B.... K....

    You're "surface"......learn depth F**k FACE...!!

  44. T.... A....

    I'm about to beat some mf into a coma

  45. A.... D....
