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!
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.
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…
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
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!
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.
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 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 🤘🖤🎻
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
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!
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.
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.
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 🤘🩸🇮🇹🩸
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!
Been a fan since I first heard agony 4 years ago Still to this day probably one of the greatest symphonic death metal albums I've ever heard. Glad Francesco was able to recover from his near death experience, was honestly for a time thinking he'd die for a while, but i'm happy to see he is better and turned his experience of death into a whirl wind of destruction through this band. much love. The music bleeds heart and soul.
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.
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 👀
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.
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!
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.
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.
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
❤
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?
singing in the rain, just singing in the rain, what a glorious feeling I'm happy again.
lol
Shipping company: "You want how much blood?"
Director: "ALL OF IT!"
Pretty much...
Yes.
@@FleshgodApocalypse Overmuch, too much..Disgusting
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
🙏🙏
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
Guys, I know you are italians... but did actually needed all that Marinara for a music video?
LOL
🍝
Lmao
Wat😂😂
Bloodline
Oh shit wasn't expecting this today. I was dusting off the old discography this morning funnily enough!
I have returned to listen to this so many times that ive lost count.
hopefully they keep this lineup forever...what they're creating is absolutely wild.
One of Fleshgod’s all-time best songs. Love it!
Thanks! 💓
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
❤
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!
"But I'm not done yet" goes so hard
its "But im not dead yet"
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.
nice “fuck” in the end
😁
They use that word quiet often 😂
Thanks, I get this quiet often.
@@thorstenlone9207X'D well played, sir.
There's always something about a powerful chorus like this and those blast beats in the background! Absolute masterpiece!
💪💪💪

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
I love that guitar that goes in and then out that’s best way for me to describe it!!!
🤘
This video is like a metal version of Dark All Day by Gunship
Fleshgod Apocalypse: Music that tears up your eardrums, lyrics that tear up your soul.
🎻🎻🎻
Non commento mai, ma questa volta dovevo scriverlo, siete l’orgoglio della scena italiana, questa traccia è una mina, COMPLIMENTI
One of the most epic songs ever created by humans.
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.
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 :)
That breakdown from 4:43 is all we need in life
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!
"And the wind plucks a harp while my soul disappears...." So good
This is one of the best songs I've heard recently. Incredible.
Ikr? I've had this song exclusively on repeat for weeks. It's a damn masterpiece
Potente, exelemte trabajo espectacular
1:39 what an epic moment!
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/
😁
The intro went from a wedding to a wall of death in an instant 😂🤘🔥
😬😬😬
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 🤘🖤🎻
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
you should check out Sinister Ghost, they're also Italian and do something similar
Find some1 who loves you as FA love getting soaked in their music videos 😅 Wicked!
😂
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!
🙏

🙏🙏🙏
The Harp at the beginning and then the onslaught, with the operatic vocals, then a brutal ending. 🖤🤘🤘
Simplesmente o álbum do ano, quem concorda respira!!!
Fleshgod will (for me) always be the definition of symphonic/ melodic metal. Nothing else compares ❤
4:15 jesus christ thats amazing.
you should check out Sinister Ghost, they're also Italian and do something similar🔥🤘💪
That scream in the bathtub at 0:47 is pure as fuck
@@FleshgodApocalypse👹
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!!
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...
My husband surprised me with tickets for Oct. 11. I can’t wait to see them.
That spit at 2:32 right in time with the beat - sick
😁
Hell yeah baby FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE IS SO BACK.🤘🤘🤘
Looking forward to this one hell of an album! Absolute banger! 🎉
🤘🤘🤘
Le scene con la pioggia di sangue, che palette di colore incredibile!
Ah, si, e poi I Fleshgod spaccano :D
Ooof, Veronica's voice sounds phenomenal on this. Took me aback.
;)
Best album to date imo, well done gentlemen and lady.
God damn these guys know what they're doing. Only discovered them a month ago, and I'm so upset about it. Phenomenalllllllllllllll.
Thanks!!!
Can’t even contain myself with this beautiful chaos! All Hail! 🖤🔥🤘🏻💥✨🌙
💪💪💪
A masterpiece, just like the whole album
This band never disappoints me.
🥳
Song of the year for me!

Proud to be italian 🇮🇹

You really should. They're the best ❤

🙏🙏🙏
@@FleshgodApocalypse Oh, and the video is brilliant too
Legends❤ Cant wait until the album ❤
This band never ceases to amaze me!!! 🔥👑 My god!!!
Veronica sounding amazing as ever.
Listening through The violation and having a nostalgic moment and popped out here and found a new video. I guess it was a sign!
Very powerful! I'm definitely feeling this song!
La mia canzone preferita.gran album

Ti prego, fai che sia tutto così MERAVIGLIOSO l'album. 🙏
😁
So sick!
I will never forget their live show, one of the most brutal I've ever been to
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
Shout out to Jamey Jasta for playing this song on his show.....where has Fleshgod been all of my life!?!
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.
🙏🙏
Best Italian death metal band❤🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Francesco - thank you for sharing your experience during your accident. Must be brutal - even more than this exquisite track.
🙏
Waaaaay too little praise for this song. Legit one of the most, if not the most, refined composing right here from you, fine gentlemen

You have Crohn's too? Stay hydrated, friend!
That’s the authentic way to experience this band, congratulations man!
Pure, ecstatic, intensity. Thats what i love to see.
