FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE "BLOODCLOCK" LYRICS Francesco: Himself Veronica: Life Awake, alone, paralyzed The blood in my mouth tastes like defeat Wounded, swollen, bleeding I'm hanging on this wall like a crucifix Pieces of bones scattered everywhere I wrap my left arm around my neck I feel my legs no more While adrenaline is blasting my bursting heart Drop by drop All my blood Turns this granite to red Tick tock Like a clock Till my veins are emptied And the wind Plucks a harp While my soul disappears But I'm not dead yet! I can see my life flashing before my eyes I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave But I'm not dead yet... All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today On this rope I must fight tooth and nail Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself I'm not dead yet! Not yet, the countdown has started for the bloodclock Broken is the hourglass, exsanguinating till the last drop, ah! I can see my life flashing before my eyes I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave But I'm not dead yet... All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today On this rope I must fight tooth and nail Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself I'm not dead yet! (Life) - I can be cruel sometimes Let you touch the sky or make you fall! Watch you, striving for peace of mind Hunting high and low Till you're gone! Future is so unpredictable Just hold on To your hopes - I'm not dead yet! Mark my words ‘cause I'm not dead yet! And I'm not dying today! I'm not dead yet, fuck!
The Gold Standard for symphonic extreme metal used to be Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth but unfortunately their music has become very stagnant now the Gold Standard has become Fleshgod Apocalypse and Septicflesh!
I like your analysis… That said, Fleshgod actually has been better than both DB and CoF since the release of The Agony 2011… but there have been a tough way forward to get the metal heads understand their greatness…
Francesco's tough near death experience definitely brought the best for his art. You can clearly see it in the lyrics and in the way music videos are portraying it. Amazing. Glad to have you alive, you and the band. Bravo !
This band changed me forever. It's helping me rebuild myself after dealing with so much pain and suffering from things we can't control. The instruments and the lyrics reflect what it means to me to feel alive.
This song reminds me of Worship and Forget, Mitra, and And The Vulture Beholds. Can't wait for the new album, especially since it's coming out close to my birthday
Seriously, my two favorite bands. What an incredible week for music. The only way this could get better would be if they announced another tour together 🙏🏻🤌🏻
I love how long you fine Gentlemen have been Destroying the music industry. I'll never forget meeting you back in 2008 at the Rave, and have Francesco hand me a drum stick and engage me in a fencing duel. it was wild to meet you all and I am so happy to see you dropping albums
Cheers from Brazil, this song just bonkers. When people ask how much marinara I want on my spaghetti, I will just show them this video. Absolute cinema!
I cannot thank you guys enough for the INCREDIBLE lineup you're bringing with you on your North American tour. I haven't been this excited for a concert in years 🤘🖤🎻
You guys are one of the few bands that´s keeping the flame of real metal burning in these awful times. Hearing this song properly loud is has brought back the feel of sound pressure that sometimes forget that I´m addicted to. Nothing I´ve heard since several years can compare to this that you all bring to us. I would really like to thank you, I´m buying this album like did with all your others . You have it all and everything is awesome. Greetings and truly thank you.
I admit that I thought I couldn't think that these guys would outdo themselves. I just listened to the whole album and... wow... I felt a shockwave... like a tsunami...
It's been awhile since I've felt this good about a release. The video is absolutely phenomenal. Oh course this is FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE and we the fans should feel stoked as ever where Veleno has led them. Opera is going to be a complete wild animal.
The climbing equipment got me good. Such an emotional song. As always, the video is a masterpiece. Pain really can become art, and this is proof of that. You guys poured your hearts out into this. I cannot wait for Opera!
Cant wait for this album! Tempted to buy it digitally on release, too, even though I already preordered a physical copy. Just don't want to wait for it to ship across the world 👀
Not only is this already one of the best songs of the year but I'm pretty sure this music video just slid into the top 20 best metal videos of all time 🤘🩸🇮🇹🩸
Once again, this is freaking insane, what a killer song. I'm sitting here, listening to it, and I can feel myself getting more and more tense, even getting goosebumps, because the song keeps building up. Then Veronica's part comes in and seamlessly transitions into the solo-just perfect. And at the end, the long sigh that turns into a growl. I love your music.
Don’t think Fleshgod has ever sounded this mature! I didn’t love their other albums, only some of the songs and moments, but I’m super curious about this album!
That choir is so beautiful 🤩,their music transports me to an epic world, music worthy of the end of the world or a battle of gods. My dream is to see them one day with a live orchestra; their music is an auditory ecstasy. I love them, the best symphonic metal band 👏
You are guys are always doing such a great job at playing with the listeners expectations in a way that holds your attention very well without it getting overwhelming. I was a big fan of Veleno because of how good to song writing was on that album. And I'm looking forward to finding out with this album as well!
You guys weren't lying when you said that ''music coming really soon, album coming soon'' at Into The Grave festival . This is about to be super goddamn good.
I like presenting the topic this way. Everyone went through hard times, losses and it's good to be authentic. I experienced a huge change in my life and I thank God for my rebirth. That world is so pathetic, shallow things in the mainstream media, so thank you very much for such dose of authentic art without anesthesia.
Might I add another comment, I lost my “memento mori” ring after my new mantra became “but I’m not dead yet” I hear franc had a near death. I experienced some alone and I’m writing novels about it. This song has reignited me in various ways. Great message and energetic song. I’ve been playing street performances working my way up again. Opening for this band would be sweet. 🎉
It’s alright, but I still miss the old fleshgod when Francesco Paoli was the drummer (thru our scars is still one of the best songs of theirs, drumming was/is phenomenal)
@@adambloomfield4861 I can agree with that (watching his video of thru our scars, I’d say he’s on par), but the direction and style the band was when Francesco was the drummer, way better.
FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE "BLOODCLOCK" LYRICS
Francesco: Himself
Veronica: Life
Awake, alone, paralyzed
The blood in my mouth tastes like defeat
Wounded, swollen, bleeding
I'm hanging on this wall like a crucifix
Pieces of bones scattered everywhere
I wrap my left arm around my neck
I feel my legs no more
While adrenaline is blasting my bursting heart
Drop by drop
All my blood
Turns this granite to red
Tick tock
Like a clock
Till my veins are emptied
And the wind
Plucks a harp
While my soul disappears
But I'm not dead yet!
I can see my life flashing before my eyes
I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain
While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave
But I'm not dead yet...
All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today
On this rope I must fight tooth and nail
Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself
I'm not dead yet!
Not yet, the countdown has started for the bloodclock
Broken is the hourglass, exsanguinating till the last drop, ah!
I can see my life flashing before my eyes
I can hear my wife yelling my name in vain
While my son holds a shovel and is digging my grave
But I'm not dead yet...
All I know is that I don't want to leave this earth today
On this rope I must fight tooth and nail
Hear these words that like a mantra I repeat to myself
I'm not dead yet!
(Life) - I can be cruel sometimes
Let you touch the sky or make you fall!
Watch you, striving for peace of mind
Hunting high and low
Till you're gone!
Future is so unpredictable
Just hold on
To your hopes -
I'm not dead yet!
Mark my words ‘cause
I'm not dead yet!
And I'm not dying today!
I'm not dead yet, fuck!
You aint a vampire but drink blud?
Blod in my mouth is a slight 🤏 such small bit
Mrhazenl cover you dont own me
Do i sing. Better or write.... watch my covers or blackbriar
Even kovacs mrhazenl cover my love
Cannibal Corpse used to say: „this next one is about shooting blood from your clock“.
They still do lol
😂😂😂
Best part of their live sets!
Minus the L
Corpsegrinder said it a few months back when I saw them with Mayhem!
The Gold Standard for symphonic extreme metal used to be Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth but unfortunately their music has become very stagnant now the Gold Standard has become Fleshgod Apocalypse and Septicflesh!
I prefer FA because more emotional and "hot" than SF, also very good but too much "cold".
I like your analysis… That said, Fleshgod actually has been better than both DB and CoF since the release of The Agony 2011… but there have been a tough way forward to get the metal heads understand their greatness…
나도 격하게 동의함.
In MY very humble.opinion the last three COF albums are trye masterpieces!
Do you know Seven Spires?
I love how much effort Fleshgod puts into their music videos. Not a single boring moment ever.
Also the song is a certified BANGER.
🤗
Francesco's tough near death experience definitely brought the best for his art.
You can clearly see it in the lyrics and in the way music videos are portraying it.
Amazing. Glad to have you alive, you and the band. Bravo !
🤘
What hapoened
Wait, what happened to him?
I’m not sure but he is doing good now
Climbing Accident.
that heavy breathing at 4:42 is genius. simple yet so groovy and hard
😁
@@FleshgodApocalypse oh wow. They actually replied. I'm honored. One day, I'm gonna show this to my grandkids.
Concordo.. un tocco geniale in una kickass song. Grandi!!
would love to know if Infernal Poetry inspired that
❤
singing in the rain, just singing in the rain, what a glorious feeling I'm happy again.
lol
White Francesco in green swamp entangled with bloody spaghetti - this is so brutally italian!
Ahahah 🤣
That's pesto not green swamp :p
Love their lead guitar tone, I can tell it's Fleshgod straight away
🙏🙏
Oh shit wasn't expecting this today. I was dusting off the old discography this morning funnily enough!
Shipping company: "You want how much blood?"
Director: "ALL OF IT!"
Pretty much...
Yes.
@@FleshgodApocalypse Overmuch, too much..Disgusting
This band changed me forever. It's helping me rebuild myself after dealing with so much pain and suffering from things we can't control. The instruments and the lyrics reflect what it means to me to feel alive.
hopefully they keep this lineup forever...what they're creating is absolutely wild.
One of Fleshgod’s all-time best songs. Love it!
Thanks! 💓
I have returned to listen to this so many times that ive lost count.
nice “fuck” in the end
😁
They use that word quiet often 😂
Thanks, I get this quiet often.
@@thorstenlone9207X'D well played, sir.
Guys, I know you are italians... but did actually needed all that Marinara for a music video?
LOL
🍝
Lmao
Wat😂😂
Bloodline
This song reminds me of Worship and Forget, Mitra, and And The Vulture Beholds. Can't wait for the new album, especially since it's coming out close to my birthday
When is it supposed to come out roughly? I’ve been so curious.
@@Ghost-bs4xc August 23
❤
Che sassata incredibile 😮
🎉🎉🎉
Concordo....spacca di brutto
Questa canzone è follia, in loop da 48 ore.. e il testo poi, da brividi
Non vedo l ora di vederli al bambù festival
Veronica's voice is so good! One of the best new female vocalist in Metal. She should definitely have more space in the songs.
She will!
Agreed! Haven't had a chance to listen to all their albums but I'm on the hunt with the ones that have her in it 😍
Lol she's a friggin backup singer.
Life can be cruel sometimes, let you touch the sky, make you fall.
This is so powerful, the lyrics, the music. Veronica.
Can't wait for the album.
Epic. Metal musicians always end up covered in liquids in a lot of videos. I hope the instruments were ok
Probably nothing a little bench time and electronic swaps can't fix :)
New black dahlia murder yesterday and now new Fleshgod today! What a fuckin week
Right?! Two of the best extreme metal bands release new shit in the same week ❤
Seriously, my two favorite bands. What an incredible week for music. The only way this could get better would be if they announced another tour together 🙏🏻🤌🏻
New All That Remains aswell, Good Metal week for sure!
And just got new Ensiferum
Black dahlia murder are shit.
These guys are the real deal
European metal is unbeatable
Find some1 who loves you as FA love getting soaked in their music videos 😅 Wicked!
😂
Album of the year? Can’t wait for a new Fleshgod Apocalypse album to drop so I can listen to it all on repeat
Can't wait for Aug 23rd as I've listened to the 2 new tracks about a thousand times already!
There's always something about a powerful chorus like this and those blast beats in the background! Absolute masterpiece!
💪💪💪

you should check out Sinister Ghost, they're also Italian and do something similar
Cheers from Brazil, this song just bonkers. When people ask how much marinara I want on my spaghetti, I will just show them this video. Absolute cinema!

Ikr? I've had this song exclusively on repeat for weeks. It's a damn masterpiece
This is gonna be my fave album ik it
So glad to have Veronica as cleans in every song yaaay
🙏
Eugene knows what to film next \m/
😁
Fleshgod will (for me) always be the definition of symphonic/ melodic metal. Nothing else compares ❤
The Harp at the beginning and then the onslaught, with the operatic vocals, then a brutal ending. 🖤🤘🤘
Fleshgod Apocalypse: Music that tears up your eardrums, lyrics that tear up your soul.
🎻🎻🎻
Can’t even contain myself with this beautiful chaos! All Hail! 🖤🔥🤘🏻💥✨🌙
💪💪💪

God damn these guys know what they're doing. Only discovered them a month ago, and I'm so upset about it. Phenomenalllllllllllllll.
Thanks!!!
Ooof, Veronica's voice sounds phenomenal on this. Took me aback.
;)
Damn, that song hits hard! I felt all the anger and despair Francesco conveyed in his lyrics. Musically it fucking rips! This albums is gonna slay!!
this might be my new favorite fleshgod track!! SO DAMN GOOD
The best
Potente, exelemte trabajo espectacular
The intro went from a wedding to a wall of death in an instant 😂🤘🔥

Listening through The violation and having a nostalgic moment and popped out here and found a new video. I guess it was a sign!
Don’t think Fleshgod has ever sounded this mature! I didn’t love their other albums, only some of the songs and moments, but I’m super curious about this album!
"And the wind plucks a harp while my soul disappears...." So good
This band never disappoints me.
🥳
Absolutely loving this one, everything about it, the guitar work , Veronica's vocals, the harp ...everything. Superb, thank you
🙏🙏🙏
@@FleshgodApocalypse Oh, and the video is brilliant too
"But I'm not done yet" goes so hard
its "But im not dead yet"
4:15 jesus christ thats amazing.

Shiiiit, it's pretty sick. Another Fleshgod Apocalypse album. Hell yeah. Glad you're still with us and Fleshgod Apocalypse, Francesco.

C’est un russe en même temps haha
So sick!
I will never forget their live show, one of the most brutal I've ever been to

This band never ceases to amaze me!!! 🔥👑 My god!!!
That spit at 2:32 right in time with the beat - sick

Pure, ecstatic, intensity. Thats what i love to see.

A masterpiece, just like the whole album
This is fantastic. I am thoroughly looking forward to "Opera".
Veronica sounding amazing as ever.
I'm pooping blood while watching this
🤣
🤣
You have Crohn's too? Stay hydrated, friend!
That’s the authentic way to experience this band, congratulations man!
Proud to be italian 🇮🇹
💪

You really should. They're the best ❤
1:39 what an epic moment!
I love how much effort you're puttin into the MV's also, are you telling me that Veronica plays the harp too? jesus I'm super fan of her
Masterpiece! From every aspect!! I didn’t expect anything less than this. As always FA 100% magicians!🔥🔥🔥

Waaaaay too little praise for this song. Legit one of the most, if not the most, refined composing right here from you, fine gentlemen

The current state of my mind: beautiful symphonies coexisting with... other things... in perfect harmony. Awesome song.
🤘🤘🤘
absolutely wild music video
Oooooooh,i love this so much,can't wait for the album!
always a good band italians represent!!!
Song of the year for me!
Legends❤ Cant wait until the album ❤
Shout out to Jamey Jasta for playing this song on his show.....where has Fleshgod been all of my life!?!
Best album to date imo, well done gentlemen and lady.
sounds like Agony, but now we can understand the guitars, incredible!
All the best, from Brazil
To think the world was this close to losing such an outstanding musician... Grande Francesco Paoli, grande Fleshgod Apocalypse!
🙏🙏🙏

Blast beats galore. This is the Fleshgod that I love.
🥁
And blast breast XD
