You starve your children on neglect Then feed their bellies with fear Concussion bat to the brain Witness to a battered mother
[Chorus] Your abuse will end right here No longer will your family fear A gunshot to head of trepidation My promise if you ever lay a finger
Just look at the scars you make Your terror makes your kids break A broken home just as you were raised With fist raised up to your children
[Chorus]
This battle is on all You've made beautiful Now hateful You wretched life wrecker Abuser Now suffer
Open fire On the desire of the man Open fire With strife we'll strike down the hand (Open fire, build the pyre) If I can't make you see the damage you've made (Open fire, build the pyre) I'll make you wish you'd never been alive x2
I like As I Lay Dying's more because they are uplifting. But like I said opinion. You're entitled to yours as I'm entitled to mine. I'd have a better argument if I wasn't whacked out on medication right now.

I love both bands, but AILD has a better live show, better lyrics, better sound, and better musicianship, in my opinion.
You starve your children on neglect
Then feed their bellies with fear
Concussion bat to the brain
Witness to a battered mother
[Chorus]
Your abuse will end right here
No longer will your family fear
A gunshot to head of trepidation
My promise if you ever lay a finger
Just look at the scars you make
Your terror makes your kids break
A broken home just as you were raised
With fist raised up to your children
[Chorus]
This battle is on all
You've made beautiful
Now hateful
You wretched life wrecker
Abuser
Now suffer
Open fire
On the desire of the man
Open fire
With strife we'll strike down the hand
(Open fire, build the pyre)
If I can't make you see the damage you've made
(Open fire, build the pyre)
I'll make you wish you'd never been alive x2

As I Lay Dying-Through Struggle
Yeah
Only through struggle have I found rest
With a piece of me taken away
I begin to understand
Hollow out this machine like chest
With its gears that turn to make me feel
And assembled thoughts that fade away
Only through struggle have I found rest
Only through struggle have I found rest
Remove from me (from me)
(This de...) This deception (...ception)
(That I) That I called love (called love)
(That I) That I called love (called love)
Yeah
With its gears that turn to make me feel
And assembled thoughts that fade away
Remove from me (remove from me)
This deception (that I that I)
That I called love (that I called love)
That I called love
Only through struggle have I found rest
With a piece of me taken away
I begin to understand
I begin to understand
I begin to understand
Love
I'm getting my wisdom teeth removed someday. Idk how much or what they'll give me for that
