Phinehas - I Saw The Bombs Fall Lyrics






I awoke from a nightmare
In a fit consciousness now
Cold sweat and colder air
Blinding flashes cast a shadow
Before the sound hit the square
The end of it all

They kept it from your TV screens; A sleight of hand
I dreamt of a lifeless rock; A cratered wasteland

It's not just an alternate reality
I saw the bombs fall
It's not just overseas
I saw the bombs fall

Are we really that far away?
Am I naive to think
That this is only a dream?
Is it really too hard to recall what brought the end of it all?
We lost our chance to rewrite history
Rewrite history

A path void of heroes
The abysmal waste of what could have been
Discerning only ones and zeros
There's no space between for them

Peel back what covers your ears
Hear that a nation is crying out for mercy (mercy)
Before it's too late for them to raise the sound
Mercy
Before it's too late for them
Mercy

Are we really that far away?
Am I naive to think
That this is only a dream?
Is it really too hard to recall what brought the end of it all?
We lost our chance
We lost our chance to rewrite history

Between the bodies in trenches and the blustery sky
It's not just overseas; I saw the bombs fall
I saw the bombs fall

  1. E.... J....

    It’s not fair that true Christians are suppressed like this.
    God will recompense those who silence his elect

    Одна из моих любимых групп, от их музла не устаешь, спасибо парням за их творчество!

  4. E.... C....

    Breakdown at 2:04 sounds just like Berzerker by After the Burial (~1.22). What do you think?

  5. l.... t....

    12 people are pussies

  6. M.... G....

    Old albums are sick... New album is fuckin rockin dudes!!!
    #Phinehas
    #YouGuysAreBadass \,,/

  7. S.... ....

    Did their music producer forget to turn on the bass or something?

    This sounds so hollow and empty

  8. K.... T....

    I think my monitor is upside down...

  9. D.... S....

  10. M.... R....

    26k & just 500 likes. Yeah people taste has changed. This type of song really badass when i still in high school long time ago. 2018 trend? maybe phinehas can try born of osiris vibe with pure clean vocal. Try it.

    @solidstaterecords must be doing a terrible job at marketing this album

    A.... L....

    CyanideZA For sure. Why haven't they blown up yet? I feel like the album before blew up more.

  15. H.... A....

    America always bombing overseas to the middle east..

    H.... A....

    Reaper 17 Well, for one, that's not a bad thing. Two, I don't think that's what the song's talking about.

  16. P.... ....

    been listening to these legends since The Last Word album, and they have remained top-tier. #1 in this genre of metal I'd say.

  17. D.... B....

    2:08 - Thank you and You're welcome.

  18. j.... ....

    if only the mixing actually had some bass, those breakdowns would be brutal

    j.... ....

  28. P.... M....

    Indonesia are waiting for you guys!! \m/

    P.... M....

    Prida_ Metalcore probably be waiting awhile

  29. A.... ....

    2:26 When she doesn't heal you

    A.... ....

    I appreciate this so much

    A.... ....

    I laughed way too much at this

    A.... ....

    This has me dead! (also because she didn’t heal me)

  30. A.... M....

    did you see the bombs fall in cali where the fires were?

  31. K.... H....

    What happened with the song Burning Bright?

    K.... H....

    Kaleb Harlander they released a music video for it yesterday

    K.... H....

    Pablo Callizo yeah I saw that! Thanks tho! I appreciate it man!

  32. P.... C....

    As I Lay Dying + Haste The Day = Phinehas 🤘

    P.... C....

    semaphore you right, haste the day did some guest work lol but it's actually the same dude its always been , Sean McCulloch

    P.... C....

    Adrian Music you right too! I meant that Scotty used to be the cleans in this band, and when he left, Sean took on both screams and cleans. :) But yeah!

    P.... C....

    That's a big ol negative

    P.... C....

    Pablo Callizo Lots of Killswitch Engage vibes too in the guitar work especially.

    P.... C....

    semaphore I think Haste The Day was first. I was listing to them 13 years ago. I had Burning Bridges in ‘05 and I’m almost positive that Phinehas released their ep in ‘09

  33. L.... G....

    "its not just overseas" He is talking about america

    L.... G....

    lmao, no

    L.... G....

    if anyone is talking about overseas it because they live at the other end of the world. this doesn't mean it has to be America.

  34. L.... C....

    Simply marvelous!

  35. J.... D....

    The upside down thing is uncomfortable.
