Lyrics

I see shadows and shapes
In the light of flames
They all congregate
And remain the same
But kept in the corner
The liar emerges
We all have sworn her
To be the last of our kin
These hands will find their place
Once more
Hold on man it's gonna be a goner
Hold on man it's gonna be erased
Don't make me choke
Don't you cover your eyes
We're all battered and broke
And we rest to surmise
But kept in the corner
The liar emerges
We all have sworn her
We are the last of our kin
These eyes will find their home
Once more
Hold on man it's gonna be a goner
Hold on man it's gonna be a erased
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Now hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool
Hold your head low
Shame on, you fool

This is the best Z&A song! This band have inspired a novel and film I'm doing too! Excellent!!!

[nicoledevaan]

Soul metal. Very refreshing combination. You rocked at Soulcrusher!

Ich liebe diese Band! Einfach einzigartig.

[HenriqueVergili]

I've just met this band and already fell in love, thats just perfect, keep doing stuff like this please!!

[ИванАверкиев-рф]

Я- меломан, и я - доволен !!! Это очень интересный опыт.

[HeavyMetal-jyvj]

I might be crazy but this could be the first 1786 views on one of the biggest songs of the year. It manages to breath life into blues rock, heavy metal, and gospel, all at the same time. Song of the year so far for me.

[geniuserisloci]

Think this one is my favorite so far. "Feels" the most like Z&A.

[jimmbob]

This band is so awesome. All their songs are so powerful.

[rferguson]

Damn, I’m glad I just so happened to wake up & randomly open YouTube. Nice surprise. Other one (JMB) is cool, but I def am feelin this one more.

[Hector-Rodriguez-Figueroa]

Manuel es un genio, me encanta esta banda lml

[nicholaschase]

I love that they made a studio version for this song. It was amazing live. I wish they’d make a studio version of cut me. Love that song too!

[Paincakes]

Getting Birdmask - Doubt vibes but way darker and I love it.

[Night-Jester]

I love this mix of styles or whatever. Just when you think it is one way then the metal kicks in. To me a non music expert.

[imightbedisturbed]

I waited so long for a studio version of the song!!! Really nice!

[gordonslamsay]

Some of these passages almost sound like they came out of a DSBM song, I love it!

[EchoSappho]

Reminds me of seeing them in Werfpop, Leiden (Holland). Left my boyfriend and friends behind somewhere at the festival, because I NEEDED to be in that first row of black shirt wearing people. They knew how to properly enjoy the music 😊🤘

[HexOmega]

4:18 It reminds me so much of Opeth, maybe it's some of the guys inspirations.

[elsergiotorressanchez]

Que buena banda algo tardado su álbum pero no decepciona

[arthurocueva]

Happy to see this song in a record finally :) I listened a lot in the live record
