Testament - Legions (In Hiding) Lyrics






Domestically violent
With razor blade smiles
Infested with anger
A well hidden crime
Teaching those lessons so cruel

Ah, the torment spreads
War inside my head
Please just set me free
You call this... a family?

Battered, abusive
There's no wrong or right
When you're enslaved in your room
Hiding from demons
In urban daylight
Knowing that they'll be here soon

Confusion and bruises
And scars left for life
When physical evidence fades
Silently screaming
Just to be loved
Their innocence taken away

Ah, the torment spreads
War inside my head
Please just set me free
You call this... a family?

Virtues are shattered
By parents they trust
When all love they give is misued
The next generation
The damaged will learn
To keep spinning wheels of abuse

Ah, the torment spreads
War inside my head
Please just set me free
You call this... a family?

    TESTAMENT HAS NO BAD SONGS LMAO

  4. m.... 9....

    90s lit!

  5. K.... D....

    I don't care about so much testament death metal style, i like more that Chuck Billy's clean voice!

    K.... D....

    Testament is awfully boaring anyway

  6. K.... D....

    I mostly skip this song but song isn't so bad either!

  7. R.... C....

    DOMESTICALLY VIOLENT WITH RAZOR BLADE SMILES A TWO FACED ROLE MODEL FOOL INFESTED WITH ANGRER A WELL HIDDEN CRIME TEACHING THOSE LESSONS SO CRUEL

  8. A.... B....

    This sounds like something Pantera would do

    A.... B....

    Andrew Bowen only better in my opinion

    A.... B....

    Much better, and I like Pantera.

  9. C.... P....

    Who played drums on this album Chris Kontos or.... ?

    C.... P....

    John Tempesta

    Oh man that guitar solo just kills me fucking awesome shit man \m/

  12. C.... W....

    Uma fase diferente do Testament.

  13. G.... R....

    The lyrics for this are pretty hard hitting

  14. S.... P....

    Absolutely brilliant, the same as it was when I first heard it almost 20 years ago.  And to think Testament was once idiotically categorized as a Metallica-clone. I can laugh out of pure admiration now :)

    S.... P....

    testament was following a trend it seems, this album was obviously Pantera/Sepultura influenced.

    S.... P....

    yes, it is groove metal, but it's also 100% testament, you know it's testament right from the start. Testament experimented a lot with different sounds, but never sold out like the metallica and megadeth

    S.... P....

    They were a shittier 3rd tier version of Metallica, in this album its just 3rd tier boring ass Pantera dna flowing through

    S.... P....

    They were a 100% Metallica clones when they started; Metallica was a great reference for everyone at that time. They did a great job anyhow. Still one of my fav bands; but this album is boring as fuck!

  15. H.... ....

    #Testament  THRASHTASTIC! \m/

    1 word... MotherFuckin'Thrash!!!!!!!! \m/

    My favourite solo @3:04

  18. I.... I....

    2:59 right speaker (PAGATIPAGATIPAGATIPAH)

  19. H.... ....

    I don't understand how people argue so much about Pantera's genre on any Thrash song I listen to. Well, at least it's not like the Djent genre arguments (It may have started from a guitar tone, but I can hear a genre's difference from plain Prog).

  20. O.... t....

    Testament stands the test of time.They always put out great albums.

    O.... t....

    AMEN 🤘

  21. o.... ....

    The best band I've ever seen live, and I've seen many. Don't know why folks are comparing bands, just jamm out man. Seen TestAmenT live 6 times, not counting the little bar they played at in Victorville Ca. As far as the wicked intensity of their live shows, only the 3 S's matched up (Sepultura, Slayer and Soulfly), as well as Behemoth and Hypocrisy. F'n sick shows man. Not knockin other bands, just know what I've seen & heard. Next show, Lamb of God with Killswitch Engage and Testament Nov 2nd

  22. g.... G....

    how come Metal Church gets no love, they have seniority over both Testament and Exodus

    g.... G....

    gReGsKi GmAiL "Metal church will find you, can't run very far
    The metal church inside you,
    It knows just who you are, who you are!" 🤘 my dad always requested Beyond the Black when I had the Compact disc

    g.... G....

    Metal Church are great and I love them they are just not in the same league as Testament and others. Some of Metal Church could almost pass for hair metal. I love Metal Church but gotta speak truth.

  23. B.... ....

    Big four
    Overkill
    Exodus
    Megadeth
    Overkill

    B.... ....

    Overkill suck

  24. S.... ....

    Sepultura is shit and worth no one's time without the Schizophrenia line-up. So they're out in their place should be Overkill!!

    S.... ....

    Overkill is just a shitty Maiden Metallica hybrid. Old Sepultura decimates them and hacks their generic ass thrash in 1000 pieces

    S.... ....

    derekobs Lol your opinion is trash itself. You have a head harder than a hockey puck. Use your ears and not your inferiority complex, bud.

  25. O.... ....

    Wow, that heavy intro is my favourite part of this song, could listen to that part forever 0:00 - 0:09

  26. P.... ....

    Testament as always kick arse and this is another killer thrash song.

  27. H.... D....

    "two faced role model fool".

  28. a.... ....

    Low was probably d most wicked Thrash albums ever wid groove n death metal influences |m|

  29. m.... ....

    low is good album sounds like pre machine head in a way.

  30. p.... ....

    Testament!

  31. 7.... ....

    groove metal what ????????? we be in the metal hood W T F METAL IS METAL not "groove metal''

  32. D.... 9....

    Actually, you're about right. Groove metal started in the 90's, so about 20 years ago. The labels get annoying sometimes. But they help organize. If I want to look up a band that has the speed of Slayer, I'll look up thrash metal. For Pantera-like sounds, look up Groove metal. No offense to you lol

  33. n.... ....

    If there is such a genre as groove metal it was created within the last 20 years! But whatever it doesn't matter it is all metal, I just hate all the labels that are added to it.

  34. D.... 9....

    Wrong. There is such thing as Groove Metal. Pantera, for example, was a huge groove metal band in the 90's. Thrash metal is too fast for this to be a thrash album. Slayer is thrash, because they are fast (That doesn't mean they're better.)

  35. M.... B....

    Out of curiosity, where did you get your info that Pantera is "groove metal" If you're refering to Wiki... Yea Fear Factory is listed there, always been classified as "Industrial Metal" Lamb of God is in there, def not "groove metal" Don't believe everything you read on the internet ace. It has been around, but people are trying to "reclassify" bands and its bullshit. I would have to say Dope could be in there, maybe even Chimaira. But not Testament.....

  36. W.... v....

    I am not calling myself an expert. I've just heard the term Groove Metal countless of times before.
    And I said you should scroll because you acted like I was saying Testament was Groove Metal. While the conversation was about Pantera.

    You seem quite offended, yet I have not said anything that should have offended you.

  37. n.... ....

    Well I have been into metal for over 30 some years since the late 70's and I have NEVER heard the term 'groove metal'. So I guess I should listen to what you say because your a metal aficionado that apparently knows more then I do! Then before I speak I should scroll through the countless posts before I comment? Buddy this is you tube not your home blog page! Be prepared to be called out if you say something someone doesn't agree with!

  38. W.... v....

    @nothlander30
    I did not make up the genre. It has been around for years already. Also, I was saying that Pantera is Groove Metal. Testament is indeed Thrash.

    Next time, please search to what I am responding before commenting.

  39. n.... ....

    WHAT? WTF is groove metal? There is no such sub genre! Testament ARE and WILL always be Thrash! Groove metal, Jesus where the fuck do you people come up with your drivel!

  40. W.... v....

    @TheArmouredAssault
    I know.

  41. W.... v....

    @TheArmouredAssault
    It heavily influenced by Thrash. But it's not the same.

  42. W.... v....

    @TheArmouredAssault
    They're groove metal. Not Thrash.

  43. W.... v....

    @spenser828
    Also, they're actually called the Big 4 because they were the first 4 Thrash metal bands who made it big and got metal as popular as it is today.

  44. W.... v....

    @spenser828
    Pantera isn't Thrash though.

  45. V.... ....

    @xxzizlxx I am a huge fan of metallica... and I can't disagree with this.

  46. d.... w....

    i think there are both pretty good so yeah y rgu like bitches anyway

  47. F.... ....

    Chuck = Most powerful voice in metal? I think so

  48. b.... ....

    WARNING! Metallica comments above. Please stick to the song.

  49. T.... ....

    u cannot c ompare TESTAMENT 2 Metallica!!!!!! Diff sounds, diff everything!!!!!! Biggwst difference, TESTAMENT DIDNT SELL OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!

  50. M.... ....

    @Umezawa91 "Awesome"? You call "Awesome" Shit like St Anger, Load , Re- Load ,The Black Album ... hahahhahahhahahhahahaha

  51. M.... ....

    @Umezawa91 Is the Truth , Metallica Sucks is a very very overrated band.

  52. B.... P....

    Testament is the most powerful metal band I've ever heard. It crushes all death, black, grindcore and so on with its power. It's just fucking epic! After listening to this, Cannibal Corpse seems weak.

  53. D.... J....

    2:10 - 2:25 was the most powerful thing ive ever heard in metal...

  54. M.... G....

    i like this band, but they are nothing compared to metallica. testament is good but not better than metallica.

  55. N.... S....

    Testament fuckin' rules! Chuck 's voice is one of the best Metal voices ever...

  56. t.... ....

    Old Metallica and Testament are both great. To say the Metallica is "intolerable" to listen is complete shit regardless of how mad you are that they sold out in the 90's. Sure, compared to other thrash they aren't as great, but it's all taste. They definately didn't suck in the 80's. By the way, Megadeth is my favorite band so in no way am I Metallica fanboy. I don't even agree with the Big Four shit anyway, there are at least a dozen bands you could say belong in there.

  57. J.... W....

    @Tuplabotti
    It's as mainstream as metal gets. Whether it's hooky choruses or vomit worthy lyrics aimed at teenagers, those two bands seem to do a good job. Neither band lacks talent, it's just that it's hardly bearable if you actually listen to any decent metal.

    It's not totally mainstream, but it certainly as close as the genre gets.

    To further prove my point, Slipknot and A7X are probably two of the highest selling metal bands of this current time, ahead of bands like Maiden.

  58. T.... ....

    @Madbutcher305 you call that mainstream? bullshit, ignorant idiot.

  59. J.... W....

    @Tuplabotti
    That comment may as well be discredited since you listen to crappy mainstream metal like Slipknot (not just a guess, I bothered to check) and A7X.
    In other words, you suck, go listen to some proper thrash.

  60. T.... ....

    @xxzizlxx You are a fucking joke.. this shit isn't nothing compared to Metallica, and I dont even like metallica.

  61. r.... ....

    Thx for posting!! Goose bumps EVERY TIME! When the drums kick in at 0:16 can't help but bang, this ones my fav TestAmenT rec, Murphy's vision of aggressiveness is so good, gave the band a whole different feel.

  62. b.... ....

    @xxzizlxx
    yeah my friend...fucking rule !!! i agree

  63. H.... D....

    Great lyrics.

  64. C.... ....

    @josh10177 Hey you gotta give props to Metallica for touring with Lamb of God and Gojira though. Both bands that can play them under the table.

  65. �.... �....

    what a riff!!

  66. E.... C....

    @AncientBarbaricEvil nah, metallica's first couple of demos got thrash started. true, testament is WAYYY better now, but metallica was ahead back then.

    just because a band has released some shitty albums recently doesn't mean we should discredit their earlier achievements :)

  67. M.... G....

    Testament deserves to me in the BIG 5

  68. C.... C....

    @xxzizlxx Always have been way better ever since the beginning!!!666

  69. N.... S....

    ...you call this a family?!!! Hail Testament!!!!...

  70. W.... B....

    Testament rules!

  71. g.... ....

    Awesome track. Kickass album.

  72. A.... T....

    Thankfully im not like my generation, and i listen to this awesome shit!!!!!!!! Testament is the real shit!!!!! Heavy fucking metal!!!!!!!

  73. J.... F....

    Great song!

  74. H.... G....

    a mover la cabeza.....no sabes....arriba abajo arriba abajo...yeah......sigue asi

  75. C.... ....

    Awesome. A song about demestic violence and abuse. Free the legions...IN HIDING!!!! Hail Testament.
