Lyrics
I spoke a vow today and asked if god would come and play
I’ve dug a shallow hole for him to sleep
But I swear he just won’t answer me
I call on out is he afraid, I’ll bury him down with the ones he keeps
And if the devil’s listening, I’ll come for him as well
If I suspect he had a hand to play
And if I see his face in town, there’s room for two down underground
Nothing’s gonna stop me ‘til I’m done
Until I’m done
Because tonight I’m killing gods
It’s guilt and frustration, it’s everything between
The silence and the absence hitting home
Peripheral glances and the chasing of a sound
I never knew I’d miss until it’s gone
So ask me how I’m coping
And I’ll smile and tell you “I’m just fine”
While down inside I’m drowning in the fucking rain
Because when everything is empty
And your heart is set to cave
Sometimes all you wish for is a place
Is a place to place the blame
Burn your heaven
Flood your hell
Drown you in your wishing wells
Burn your heaven
Flood your hell
Damn you all
Because tonight I’m killing gods
The incendiary shock wave, scorched earth policy
The devastation that only loss will leave
The chants and incantations of daily rituals
A subtle lapse in brutal honesty
So ask me how I’m coping
And I’ll smile and tell you “I’m just fine”
While down inside I’m screaming ‘tiI I fucking bleed
Because when everyone’s expendable
And your heart can’t take the wait
The last thing that you wish for is the face
Is the face to face the pain
Burn your heaven
Flood your hell
Drown you in your wishing wells
Burn your heaven
Flood your hell
Damn you all
Because tonight I’m killing gods
I spoke a vow today and asked if god would come and play
Because I just want to cut that fucker down
Face me
None survive
The devil and god have died inside me

Some people have therapists..some people have hobbies..some people have loved ones who understand to go to when things are at a boiling point...for the rest of us..the metal shares our pain and gives it a way out.
Yes!!! When ever I'm feeling down, stressed out, or in a rut, metal to the rescue!
This needs to be in the metalist's bible. Amen 🙏
Yes! I turn on the metal and take photographs
I always have friends ask me "oh but doesnt it make you angrier literally getting screamed at" and I usually say - well no, I internally am screaming along and the music acts as a catalyst for anger to leave me
Konstantin Stepanov I agree 100%. Metal music helps release all that pent up emotion inside and allows a person some relief. Ask many people which music makes them more angry...metal music or elevator music and I’ll bet elevator music is the top answer lol.
"What if pain, anger and loss was a song?"
Winston McCall: "Hold my beer."
Don't forget insanity.
Winston is straight edge...
@@danielsalazar7147 Hold me vegemite?
He doesnt drink. Hes se

‘And if the devil’s listening, I’ll come for him as well if I suspect he’s had a hand to play.’
Damn. They are some good lyrics.
😏
Gotta respect the vocalist for 1 take
“Ask me how I’m coping and I’ll smile and tell you I’m just fine”! I feel those lyric in my soul every time!
😢😊🎉❤🎉❤🎉😮😅😊😂
Fuck oath brother killer 🤘🤘
Nine days from my 64th birthday & I'm still listening. I've seen Parkway Drive 'live' multiple times and I own all of their tunes on vinyl & cd
Some hero's don't wear capes...... Or, do you have a cape ?
Rock on ya old fucker 🤘🤘
@N Galvan wot m8
@N Galvan cute, what a fake edgy boi hiding on the internet.
BAD FUCKING ASS
Thats awesome!!!! I, oneday, will be you
This song is raw emotion. That is what I love. It is a truly emotional representation of the anger phase of agonizing grief (in this case I assume over the loss of loved ones).
The whole album was written with the death of Tom Searle of Architects at heart.
@@escape_velocity1 For some reason, it carries an atmosphere about it that transcends merely being another screamo song. It is more like to the music in an emotional play or musical, for a scene in which the protagonist is showing raw grief and emotion over that loss. It is a truly well done song, and this is coming from a guy who loves the more non mainstream bands like Primus, Tool, Porcupine Tree, and Opeth, to name a few.
@@jordanohealy1507 right on.. Tool is in my top 10, maybe even top 5.. I love Primus N APC too.. n Deftones.. n Quicksand.. etc etc etc
I used to go the Parkway Drive concerts at Metro nightclub in Melbourne when they first started. All they had was max 20 people in the audience and I can’t believe how big they are now. Still love them 16 years later.
That was the case for my friend back when System was coming up. It used to be just friends and family at their shows in Los Angeles and of course they blew up.
the evolution of winstons vocals are exactly what excites me about the new album!
Parkway for life. 18 year old me is ecstatic that 27 year old me still gets to listen to them.
yep 48 year old me is still saying fuck yeh
Agreed, this still sounds pretty rad. Says 26 year old me.
My exact feelings!
same here HAHAHA we're all the same :)
Meghan Talbott I 26, I still remember getting to hear them for the first time in high school, mind was so blown back the n
That’s pure raw anger. You can’t fake that.
Yes we are in the car right now with Charlie_b and this is dope
"Sometimes all you wish for is a place, is a place to place the blame." "The last thing that you wish for is the face, is the face to face the pain." Greatest lyrics ever.
Pure raw emotion put into this one. This is what comes of a man when he’s pushed past his limits
The absolutely demonic power of Winston's screams coupled by the lighting effects is creepy as hell and I love it
Creepy? It's awesome af with lots of passion
Usually more a fan of Parkway Drive's beautiful guitar in their songs, but every once in a while they make something with just incredible vocals.
This is so fucking metal. Took a risk with this one and killed it. I’ve been waiting to see a metal video like this. No special effects, no goofy storyline. Just pure and in your face. I want to see someone do something similar but film it in the cold so you can see their breath when screaming.
Then check out king 810 this is a cheap knock off
@@bradhunt2948 that was a horrible comparison. They suck compared to Parkway Drive
There’s an ABR video called “The Frost” that’s done in the cold. It’s a great song and a great video.
You can check I am above from in flames, it's close (only talking about the video not the music)
Nvr a risk with PWD...all there music is great...even the worst song is better than most in the genre. IMHO
Is “Barely contained Rage” an actual vocal style?
I this song is all the answer needed to that question!
obviously ... see above video.
More like "Barely contained rage on the verge of absolute insanity"
If Winston does it than its a singing style.
Absolutely, I've done it in choir, in the song we were singing we had to "scream at God." So I did.
Once again parkway prove why they are the best, also love the fact that they can still be heavy without over using breakdowns, plus that end riff was tasty 11/10
Winston has really changed the vocals up, and the guitars are so different. I LOVE IT!
This has easily grown into one of my favorite Parkway Drive songs. Its so damn powerful.
The power in these vocals are unmatched. Just brutal!
Holy crap, Winston's vocals are particularly savage on this one! Love it!
Maybe thats one reason they chose to shoot the video like this perhaps
They mentioned that the new album would be a lot more aggressive.
He´s da best!
his low growls are brutal. I love the chorus
This already blows most of Ire out of the water, for me at least.
The “None survive” part..ugh, these dudes are just the fucking best.
Lost my dad at 2 pm today, the 3/9/22, day before father's day of all days. Watched his heart finally take him right Infront of us. In less than a minute went from talking to gone. This song says it all.
Don't worry dad I got this and will take care of everyone
So sorry to hear this
I’m sorry bro, hope your doing ok
So sorry for that. I am still not ready for this day
we only pick flowers at there most beautiful.
My father died three years ago in my arms. I looked into his eyes when the lights went out. I know that pain just now you’re able to live with it each day more and more. I think of it like this if you keep him in your heart, you two will never be apart because in a way he will always be a part of each other our fathers live on through us. Stay safe and have a happy new year.
DUDE! I can't stop listening to this!
Same here 🤘
Watched this in the dark with all the lights turned off in my room. I feel like his face is going to give me nightmares.
Still worth it.
Jonathan Wong He only sounds like a hell spawn, got to chill with him and Jeff and they some super down to earth people
Anyone else been listening to this on repeat since release? 😎👌
Parkway Drive - Wishing Wells - First Time Live On TH-cam - Camden Underworld London - March 2018
After the passing of my Oldest son..... and the death of my wife who battled Cancer 5 times.... this is how i feel EVERYDAY..... Thank you Parkway Drive for my sanity. This song allows me to focus my hate and anger at the world in this song instead of Humanity....
When I first saw this video (when if first came out) I had chills. It’s so god damn powerful. Here I am after so much time has passed and I STILL get chills. SO good
People think this video clip is shit, however it perfectly sums up the meaning of the actual song. The song is about losing someone you love and trying to cope with it by blaming someone else. The video focuses on his facial expression to highlight the anger & depression when losing someone...This is banger and a half
Winston explained on his Instagram, it's about losing someone
Petros Laloukiotis so yeah, thats why I always use "I think" and "Imo" hehe
"It's attempting to place blame where there is none, seeking answers where there is only emptiness, and ultimately trying to find some kind of reason and meaning to justify the ultimate loss we will all be faced with in life. this is how this chapter begins and ends."
He posted that on his personal instagram..I have screenshot of it
going through exactly whats in the song. I feel that emotion man. It's too deep
Winston went full Amon Amarth on this one - luv it
When my dad died, this song was cranked up and on repeat. It's so powerful.
This song helped me through the absolute most angry moments of my life... It helped me take a step down to understand someone I don't even know has felt the pain I have... I walked down those steps... This is one of the heaviest songs written lyrically of all time...
Winston’s vocals get better with every album I swear.
Definitely. That's probably my favorite part about the band.
Tony The Truck Guy that and the overall progression of the band. You can tell there’s a big change from Don’t Close Your Eyes and this. Sounds more technical rather than just chugging.
What a fucking performance in the video by Winston. Song is epic but that’s expected by Parkway Drive.
Simon Flames hail your words
can we try to get this comment 666 likes
You think he stares straight forward with these unrealistically extreme facial expressions while he sings in actual live performances? I'll answer that question for you: NO. This video comes off as pretentious and fucking stupid. You and the people that liked your comment need to get a fucking grip!
Speaking as someone who's been to some of their shows, I can honestly say that Winston is very much capable of replicating what he did in this video, especially when he really gets into what he's doing.
+Michael Coletti It's a visual to express the energy and vibe of the song, and it does a pretty damn good job. The song and the video are works of art.
This song hits different when someone close to you has passed away. I felt so much anger, guilt a pain I never felt when my dad died. I wish that on no one especially when you have to make that choice to take them off life support.
i feel this so much i watched my dad waste away from cancer while on hospice and i will never forget the day he died ive never been so angry and sad at the same time i still feel it to this day
I can absolutely relate. Even as a devout Christian, nothing can prepare you to face the pain. This song encompasses grief perfectly
Proffesor. Sri. Avijit
I lost my pops to Lung Cancer August 2020. There’s just something so beautiful about releasing all of your pinned up rage to this song. Thank you Parkway Drive, thank you Metalcore. I wouldn’t have survived the last 2 years without you.
This is awesome, sounds familiar and yet different. Very well done
wow, first clever comment
That's what the said they were going for in an interview. Familiar, but not copy pasted from other albums. Seems they accomplished it
I waited 10 years to get visual confirmation about this mans insanity. I FUCKING LOVE THIS BAND
Watching this while looking in his eyes the whole time, then without me knowing, I'm already crying. damn!
I will never forget the first time I really heard this song. I hadn't ever just sat and listened to it. I thought I was going to literally cry my eyes out. This song reached out to me and told me that it's ok for me to be angry, to hurt, to be mad at a God I was questioning the existence of, to want to just feel pain and fear and anger. I'm very certain this song not only helped me stay alive but to also pull myself out of a 2 year long drug relapse after being clean for several years.
A selfish ass drinking and driving drunk bitch stole my Captain from me a few years ago. He was my best fuckin friend. He was my ride or die partner in crime turned clean but still ride or dies friend.
I've been angry at the Gods, demons, Angels, even the Tooth fairy a few times since he's been gone. Angry and scared. This song showed me that it's ok
these lyrics are something else, on a new level
Randy Blythe you rock
Randy Blythe also sounds like you 👍for most of the song.
Wow, you.
two bad ass bands rock on brothers
It's not the real Randy... 🙄
Time to listen to this until I either get sick of it or until they release another one.
Anthony Medeles took me 5 min and 2 sec to get tired of it
bbnzor k
Great rapid beat for running. Deep voice works for weights. Like 4 shots of espresso through my ears.
Thank you Parkway Drive for this, after some very important people to me passed I haven’t been able to grieve and this is the first time I’ve cried in ages. I thank you so much for this and I’ve been allowed to grieve. I again thank you so much
Parkway
I expect the cover will be up within the hour
When's the stream starting?
I was waiting for the "epitaph records coming out with those fire new bands" ahaha
Nik Nocturnal the cover its close👌🤘🤣
a cover perhaps?
Just give me merch with "tonight I'm killing Gods".
Rui Carneiro that would be sick.
I just nutted a thousand nuts thinking of a shirt like that. Team up with Blackcraft for it, and that idea is amazing.
Rui Carneiro lmao yas
Rui Carneiro That's mech I would wear the shit out of! Fingers crossed!!!
I would pay any amount of cash for some shit like that \m/
Is this The Doom Slayer? It's him letting out his rage in a way that doesn't involve bullets, must be how he relaxes.
Funny, his facial structure and hair style matches pretty closely...
Funny that i discovered this band when i was into doom eternal... And style fits too, this band is too underrated, it should be up on the sky.
I listened to this song for the first time a week ago. Absolute savagery. I love it. If there’s a song that SCREAMS absolute rage, this is it.
This is some brutal and emotional stuff. Expertly executed on vocals. His voice just seems to get better and better. PWD is definitely too often overlooked by the metal community.
Evolution in action. Stagnation = death, 'specially here in Oz. Excepting of course those apex predators that deservedly coexist with us
Because they release corny singles which hurt credibility
Metal is too often over looked by the Music community.
Funny thing is these guys aren't even considered metal by Encyclopaedia Metallum, while Rush is, let that sink in. These guys are literally engorged with metal in their veins...
Lol you think this is brutal listen to the album horizons by parkway drive you newb this shit sucks they are sell outs now
Perfect lyrics for God of War
what i was thinking
Marib Alam thought the same
Exactly what I thought haha as soon as he said "Tonight I'm killing God's"
This should be on the sound track of GoW 4
Perfect lyrics halo 6
My mum passed away a year ago from cancer, this song helps me get through. Thank you parkway. Xx
Wow. I think I've written this song in my mind a million times in the last 2 years. He just said all I feel and believe
When the music is so good your goosebumps are moshing on your skin
Sounds badass from 0:00 to 5:02!!
Juan Guerrero i like the part when Parkway Drive.. drove
This song has helped me through some serious shit these last couple years, thank you for the very existence of it. I probably would not be here without it.
THIS COMMENT👌🏼 past 3 years i lost my Grandmother , lost a daughter , wife left , no access to the Boy and Business turned to shit cus of her but onwards and upwards. Stay strong people!!
I'll just say I've never had chills go down my spine till seeing this live
When that acoustic guitar started. Ever time I hear this song now
Anyone love when a new song from a great band comes out an the lyrics match your mood or how you feel?
I showed this track to my frozen dinner...its cooked now
best comment so far! ! killer song
Made my day :D
Hahahaa
🤣🤣🤣
Xlonely poor coreX
There is nothing more amazing than seeing them perform this song live. It was earth shattering!!
I think I've watched this 20 times straight now. I can't get over how much I relate with his facial expressions. I'm there. Have been there. And understand. This song is an absolute perfection.
this took a few listens to get a feel for, and holy shit.. this goes hard. will never understand those guys that cry about bands that change their style up. Bands should experiment, not to mention this is one damn track. Knowing parkway the rest of the album is gonna have many different vibes, I'M SO FUCKING PUMPED FOR IT OH MY GOOOD
I will help you understand why we guys cry when bands change up their style too much... Suicide Silence... that’s all... R.I.P. 😭 😭
+Bengal Music that's an exception aha, they were a good band but the last couple of albums were awful
RIP Mitch.
I enjoy the faces he makes in between vocals. You can tell he feels what he’s doing.
TH-cam needs to revise its rating system... a thumbs up just isn't enough for this!
Healed AF 🤘🏼
I think I may have just almost broken my neck headbanging
This was in my mental wish list since yesterday evening... Closed eyes, laid in couch, in-ear earphones, Wi-Fi, relaxed... Headbang + closed eyes (A glance few times) 🤘🏻
Handbanbing? I think that's something else.
Matthew Heath holy shit I've never seen I wrote handbanging, what even can that mean 😂
I handbang to Parkway all the time, music is orgasmically heavy :-)
Laura NL Zucchiatti wow bro your such a badass lol I do the same thing
This is some deep shit. I can feel the emotions on this. Good job mates.
Will Caldwell I think some of it is left to interpretation. A little of inner god, a little of what we call a real god
No fuckin kidding man. I get a chill every time I hear that breakdown.
BlurryFace Nick that’s what I was thinking. To be honest I’m not a huge fan of the style of music of this song. BUT I absolutely love the lyrics along with the emotions of his face in the video. To see somebody actually feel their lyrics is amazing to me.
Will Caldwell not actually what it's about. It's about Winston losing someone close to him. There was a thing on Instagram about it
Will Caldwell I think the meaning of the song is people who blame God and the devil for everything wrong in their lives.
I never used to listen to Parkway Drive as a guy who loves metalcore but their sound is growing on me. A lot of people used to listen to them in high school for that reason i always liked to listen lesser listened bands. Great album
The rage, of a single focal point....
Damn I could just listen to the “burn your heaven, flood your hell ,” lyric over and over again. His vocals and that effect are insane
Holy shit!!! Parkway drive always finds a way to improve and find deeper and deeper meanings for their songs. Absolutely love this and can wait to see you guys in May
Thank God for metal, it hits the soul when your in a dark place and looking for answers. Its what I needed today, its the only thing keeping me running right now.
I just lost my mom and this song is hitting levels of emotion I didn't know I had
This tune is obviously killer, but main kudos goes to recording this video performance in one go! Conveying the energy and feeling for 5 minutes straight without edit is damn commendable!
Thuum I guess they don't do that everytime they perform? Lol
I share the same sentiment, but 4:52 looks a liiiitle suspicious to me.
The beast is back
This song helped me out when I lost my mother two years ago. Still to this day it helps me out when I get to my breaking point. Thank you Parkway Drive for the amazing music that y’all always make and produce. \m/
This 52 year old can relate and feel every word ...
This is very dark and more traditional metal. I like it alot.
Ive never been so creeped out but enticed at the same time
I've heard this song well over 100 times and I still fucking love it and it's still one of my top favorites.
Why does this song go so much harder than the rest of the album. I need more of this shit in my life
What an absolute killer track. Winstons vocals are simply sublime
Cannot. Stop. Listening
The whole album!
And I'm back...still listening lol
I usually don’t like when videos focus on one member but you can tell this song is extremely personal to Winston! You can literally see the pain of the lyrics in his face and voice
The vocalist is so underrated. Awesome mixing of styles.
damn the video is so intense, i mean it's just him singing but acting like a crazy/desperate man, you really get into his state of mind, love it
2:20 - 2:30 fucking intense and precise, calculated aggression. Beautiful.
Winston is in a league of his own. Nothing more raw or powerful than his voice. It's proper mental. If it was metal Olympics he'd be bringing Australia gold home every time. Can't wait for the rest of the album; can't wait to throw down!
liquidbrickle phil bozeman is better but yes, winston is a fucking beast too.
nah, no way
Johan hegg from amon amarth is a serious contender but Winston is a fucking beast still
I think CJ from TAIM has a good chance!
Lol I could name plenty better. Winston’s decent.
This song always make me cry a little. Have fun there in heaven Jeff.
This is possibly the best and most effective simple/ cheap videos ever made. The lighting and his expressions are so convincing
Put this song on my way home from work when it first released, damn near put my foot through my windshield. God damn is this song bad ass! This is just Winston letting out his depression from close people and family members passing away! Gotta give it up to him man I know it’s tough losing people in life and this was his outlet. Go read about how this song and album came to. Parkway drive was almost no more during this album he wanted to be around no one that’s why no other band mates were in this video.
Stay strong brother!
Holy shit, what a performance! I don't know why I am so surprised... Parkway Drive has always been best! ❤️
When I first heard the song and watched the video I know right there that the feeling that I have inside all the time was not just stuck to me following me through out my last 10 years of my life this I really helps people don’t just pas it on just because the type of music it is
il be honest, i love the OG Parkway, the most, im from northern NSW and in my late 20's so how could i not. but to follow along, for what feel like a lifetime, and still feel everything they lay down, that's real music.
Winston sounds incredible. just perfect
it was alright ...
How I love this band. Reminds me of summer
Nothing’s gonna stop me ‘til I’m done
UNTIL I'M DONE
This song still gives me goosebumps.
It so raw it hits you so hard right in depths of the worst thing you have ever been through but let's you walk away smiling....
this band just keeps getting better and better.
I would beg to differ, its growing to a more adaptable metal scene
@@moty0303 i couldn't agree more. They are way more mainstream. Thats why hoards of newbs come here and defend it. I like this song but this album overall is trash!!! And IRE and Atlas are extremely overrated. They age horribly unlike their first 2 or 3 albums.
I love Parkway from dont close your eyes to reverence. Bands change and mature and i will always support them. LOVE YOU PWD❤❤❤❤
@@shetzlinejr they did not mature except for the lyrics. They just changed.
Im seeing them tonight and they put on the best show
If he screams just a little longer, he'll become a super sayajin
Wouldn't even complain
I need to see an edit of this song for Broly when the movie comes out with this song.
That'd be interesting lol 😂
It is definitely over 9000
I came here from in flames I am above.. this is my first time hearing this band it did not disappoint me. I'll be looking for more music from this band
Me too, You should hear other grestest songs, like "prey", "sleepwalker", "idols and anchors", "dark days", "vice grip" they are si.good
The video is so simple yet so great! With time it has become one of my absolute favorites!
