Death By a Thousand Cuts

Insidious

Sober

It starts like a whisper, then sharpens to steel
Memory strikes where I thought I could heal
Flicker of faces, a voice I erased
But the record keeps playing, skipping in place

I try to outrun it — but it knows where I sleep
Buried in silence, still cutting too deep

Replay the wound — frame by frame
I watch myself shatter, over and over again
No pause. No skip. Just static and screams
I relive the moment — tear through the seams
Replay the wound — like I deserve to bleed
Let it burn in my brain ‘til it’s all that I see
Post-chorus

(‘til it’s all that I see)

Tried to drown it in noise, tried to burn it with time
But it feeds on the cracks in this mind of mine
A loop of regret, plays behind my eyes
Even forgiveness just tastes like a lie

It’s not penance — it’s rot
And I forgot how to stop!

Replay the wound — frame by frame
I watch myself shatter, over and again
No pause. No skip. Just static and screams
I relive the moment — tear through the seams
Replay the wound — like I deserve to bleed
Let it burn in my brain ‘til it’s all that I see

(‘til it’s all that I see)

Can’t rewind.
Can’t delete.
Can’t forget what I repeat.

I pressed play
But it plays me
‘Til the man I was
Ceases to be!
Guitar solo

Replay the wound — this loop won’t break
Just salt in the echo, just blood in the wake
If healing’s a lie, then pain is the truth
So I carve one more scar
And replay the wound

(I replay the wound)

Act of Corrosion - Replay The Wound

Lyrics:


[Verse 1]
Static hum, light cuts the night,
Roaring pain, a mental fight.
Eyes unglue, a blurry scene,
Sterile, cold, where have I been?
Years like dust, they say have passed,
A life I knew, now fading fast.
This hollow shell, borrowed time,
A ghost, a glitch, past my prime.

[Verse 2]
Hushed tones speak of futures strange,
A world reborn, a rapid change.
Old photos show what used to be,
She found her peace, but what of me?
My children's eyes, now grown so tall,
Thirty years gone, beyond recall.
Their voices new, a painful sting,
This stolen youth, the sorrow brings.

[Chorus]
Shattered pieces of a life I knew
Woke into a nightmare, wrong door, it's true
This future's not my own, a reflection I despise
Searching for a reason in these unfamiliar skies.

[Verse 3]
City hums a different beat,
Lost in rhythms of the street.
Screens that glow, a language new,
Through digital caves, I walk on through.
A phantom limb, a memory's trace,
Each corner turned, a new harsh space.
The weight of loss, a crushing blow,
This fragile heart, beats soft and slow.

[Chorus]
Shattered pieces of a life I knew
Woke into a nightmare, wrong door, it's true
This future's not my own, a reflection I despise
Searching for a reason in these unfamiliar skies.

[Bridge]
The faces blur, the names all fade,
But in this ruin, a soft light's made.
One single breath, a choice I take,
Before my fragile spirit breaks.
This empty space, a path I'll trace,
Towards a dawn, a new embrace.


[Chorus]
Shattered pieces of a life I knew
Woke into a nightmare, wrong door, it's true
This future's not my own, a reflection I despise
Searching for a reason in these unfamiliar skies.

[Chorus]
Shattered pieces of a life I knew (I knew!)
Woke into a nightmare, wrong door, it's true (it's true!)
This future's not my own, a reflection I despise (I despise!)
Searching for a reason in these unfamiliar skies (unfamiliar skies!)

Coma

“Let ’Em Burn” by Saints No More is a fiery declaration of freedom, self-respect, and rebirth. Written with raw grit and unapologetic defiance, the track takes aim at toxic ties, false promises, and the weight of carrying other people’s battles.

From the opening lines—shouldering grudges and vacant stares—the song builds into a full-throttle anthem about breaking chains and choosing peace over approval. The chorus ignites with explosive energy: a pocket full of matches ready to torch every lie, chain, and name that once held control. By the bridge, it’s not just rebellion—it’s transformation. “Ashes make a better path anyway” sets the tone for rising unchained, fearless, and unshakable.

Musically, “Let ’Em Burn” blends hard rock muscle with anthemic fury. Thunderous verses, a scorching chorus, and an outro that feels like fire itself turn the song into both a purge and a celebration. It’s rebellion with purpose: a vow to never be caged again.

This is Saints No More at their most relentless—a track for anyone who’s ever had to burn the past to finally be free.
