Pariah Lyrics
The sore on the edge of your mouth it mirror the ones on your arm of black tar you've known the
ripping.
And I've seen you pissing your condition into the dirt.
I know you don't want to live in the dirt you want to know nothing but dirt you know you can't
beat weakness.
Kill the flux. Stretched to breaking an obscene canvas on a stretcher of parasitism.
You piece of shit I won'y say your name but I will say this- FUCK OFF AND DIE (sooner the
better).
You've shot out your eyes but I'm seeing that you cannot feel anything of worth.
Know that you've pissed life away, lost in your narcotic dreams.
Heart pumping futile shit through your veins.
Why does it bother? I want to punch in your sunken face and see your dusty blood smear through
the air in a polluted crimson arc,
splattering in a useless pattern on the concrete. Moribund.

allright did you guys actually listen to the song because it seems like these lyrics have been posted around on every site, and they're not even correct just the first few lines, after that it goes off into another song. He mentions "what i want you to be..." and "would i have? rip it away" and "away...", and "behind the shattered remnants of what ???..."< is the last line. this doesnt even have any of those lines, i love how people discuss whats not even there, i can't decipher the song's complete lyrics because it's hard to understand randy's vocals in this, but these posted lyrics go off wrong at "you've known the ripping" that's not even in the song, continues wrong up to "Kill the flux",continues wrong up to "Fuck off", then everything is wrong after that. I'll take my time off another day to post my suggestion on the lyrics but just letting you know these are wrong.
You are correct, the lyrics are wrong. I was watching the Killa' DVD the other night and it occurred to me they don't match. If you can post the correct lyrics, please do.

@Devourox No fucking bullshit...... Thank you for posting this, even though I'm fucking about 8 years behind your post but I have to regretfully admit that I've been loyally head banging to this CD on and off again since it first was released. Shit, I think I was like maybe 10 or around that age but I very distinctly remember that this was like the first CD that I ever bought on my own(behind any and all adults who would have interjected, because how many kids that aren't even a teen yet had the support and or go ahead to...

Anyhow, my only option then was to get it at Walmart which back then they had that hard pressed editing bullshit phase of theirs so even tho it was a censored copy I still couldn't pass it up once I previewed a sample of the first track through a set 9f display headphones. And I've been listening to this since then and I've sworn for over a decade at least this exact same confused thought but just never actually voiced it because I on COUNTLESS occasions would look up the lyrics to both Flux(Pariah) and Pariah and they both showed the exact same lyrics. Which really fucked with my sanity so for years I've half-heartedly just assumed that maybe I'm just a fucking idiot and can't fully and/or accurately understand Randy's Idol worthy vocals.
P.S. Additionally, just to add to my very possible burnt-out sense of interpretation skills I have this even more aggravated mind that the remastered track of Pariah - A.K.A.= Flux(Pariah) is confusingly similar(in my opinion) to Black Label track.
Not sure if my whole thing posted cuz it cuts off for some reason. But

this is such an amazing song... so hard and the riff in the middle and the end is just insane. the lyrics are a lot of fun too. the line "fuck off and die" seems to basically sum it up. a pariah is a social outcast/ an untouchable. this song kicks ass
i don't understand one thing, how pariah may be an untouchable and outcast?
i guess, it would depend on your defenition of "untouchable". i read this and i imagine some guy that nobody fucked with, becuase he was an outcast, but could also fuck you up. that's just what i got from it.

this is the best lamb of god song besides black label
the 1999 version is really good too
this song is about a person that singer Randall Blythe had some bad experiences with and whom he just completely despises,his words were something like"this person was just a real shitbag"
Drug abuse.
a pariah is a social level in the cast system in india, and it means untouchable pariahs were considered to be inhuman, and thus, if you were not a pariah, you were expected to basically walk all over them, and were expected not to be kind to them at all
i think what this song is talking about is catching a v.d. from a needle, and then making him a pariah, or "untouchable"
ummmm it seems to me, could be wrong, but i think olbaid665 is right. Its about a person who got a diseise from a needle and now he/she is running back to the speaker for help and he is just telling him/her its your damn fault, you shouldent have messed with that stuff.
He sounds like a kind of scientist, and the music reminds me of that kind of place.
