Memphis May Fire - Blood & Water (Visualizer)

LYRICS
I used to think that I deserved this
Tried my best but never perfect
I was helpless and you knew it
You like to think you’re a martyr but you’re just abusive
So now I’m not afraid to admit that there’s nothing left
I know you’ll try to manipulate me again
But I’ve come to grips with the fact that what’s dead is dead
What’s dead is dead. What’s dead is dead

I bet that this is what you wanted
I can’t believe you got the best of me again
I thought that you were being honest
And now I wish I would have never let you in
Ya I know it’s my fault
I love deep, then lose it all
I guess I wanted to believe it
But blood’s not thicker than water after all

All the years spent with a vermin
Left me soul sick, always searching
I learned that trust is rarely worth it
You can’t believe what you hear from the mouth of a serpent
What’s dead is dead. What’s dead is dead. What’s dead is dead

I bet that this is what you wanted
I can’t believe you got the best of me again
I thought that you were being honest
And now I wish I would have never let you in
Ya I know it’s my fault
I love deep, then lose it all
I guess I wanted to believe it
But blood’s not thicker than water after all

You fooled me once, twice, never again
This is cut ties, no goodbye, nail in the coffin
This is the nail in the coffin
Never Again

I bet that this is what you wanted
I can’t believe you got the best of me again
I thought that you were being honest
You were never being honest

I bet that this is what you wanted
I can’t believe you got the best of me again
I thought that you were being honest
And now I wish I would have never let you in
Ya I know it’s my fault
I love deep, then lose it all
I guess I wanted to believe it
But blood’s not thicker than water after all

Dear MMF:

Yes. Finally yes. 2010 emo kids we still here.

[patientzero]

This band never fails to made a good catchy chorus.

[silentcurrents]

The Devil Wears Prada & Memphis May Fire going back to their heavy roots is making every fan of the metalcore genre excited about metal again. THIS IS FUCKING SICK!

[NotaKnopp]

*MMF releases a heavy song with a soaring chorus*
Matty: "I bet this is what you wanted."

[tylerwhite]

On some real shit, MMF hasn't dropped a song this dope since Challenger

[kingkcheifre]

Now THIS is what we’re talking about boys. Keep this energy.

[santurawal]

for those who expecting it to be heavy, it is deliciously heavy.. won't have any regrets

[ronnieb]

Honestly this should win a Grammy. Feels like a metalcore masterpiece.

[_xWinter]

Shout out of Matty for never giving up on that haircut. A real G

[metalli.queen]

"You can't believe what you hear from the mouth of a serpent"
Three weeks ago I broke up with a guy after 10yrs... Shit hurts like it just happened last night still. But he's a narcissist, who knew exactly how to create the trauma bond I'm fighting so hard to break with him... This song feels like it was almost perfectly written for my personal situation going on & describes lots of it. This song is painfully beautiful. Thank you guys for this poetry.

Edit: As of 2023: I am in such a better place all around. Thanks for those who commented. Healing, growth, learning are all a thing & we all learn by doing or going through something bad. Narcissists are truly vile, so I pray for those who have been or are in those bonds. Fight for yourself. Youvr got this.

[teugene]

i am old. But i am glad this type of music is still out there somewhere....

[blockhead]

MMF: The Old Me
Me: No, that is not the old you.
MMF: Blood & Water
Me: THIS IS THE OLD YOU!!! :D

[FerroNJ]

"I can't believe you got the best of me"

*Jeremey McKinnon enters the chat*

[Longpointlessnameish]

"You can't believe what you hear from the MOUTH OF A SERPENT" gives me so hard. SO GOOD.

[UnitedGamer]

Man I’m so excited for another song!

Edit After Listening: HOLY CRAP LETS GOOOO!!! This is what I’m talking about!! Been around since The Hollow and I’m so happy with this!

[NeverKnelt]

BEST SONG YOU DUDES HAVE DROPPED IN YEARS!!! Heavy verses, catchy chorus, nasty breakdown! Sounds like classic MMF through a modern lens

[STARSDYEDRED]

"Bloods not thicker than water after all!!" Such a sick song

[blazzinpoe]

"AND I KNOW ITS MY FAULT I LOVE DEEP THEN LOSE IT ALL"



shit hit me in the feels

[Dandalf]

20 plays later and that breakdown is still giving me chills. What a song.
