Por Vida Lyrics
To look past my regrets
And I sang to the heavens
As I bled from my neck
and all your wisdom and strength
I said thanks for the suffering
As I sang for the dead
You ignored every word
We'll all grow old and die
As our pleas go unheard
And I tried to forget
How I loved every moment
Of the life that I left
We were all lied to my friends
An' no one can save us from God
Not even death
And discard all your dreams
They all turn to shit in the end
And you wake up in hell
The present's as painful
As being ignored
WAA FUCKING HOO I'M THE FIRST TO COMMENT ON THIS SONG! YAYYYY FOR ME. THIS SONG IS SOOOOO AMAZING AHH THE LYRICS, THE BAND AND HIS VOICE JUST MAKE IT. AHHH I LOVE VENDETTA RED AND THIS SONG IS AWESOME!
I told Erik that this song scares the hell out of me and he said that was the point. He said that it was written about a point in time when everything is going wrong and there is no high point in the near future. but i bet you could figure that out by reading it...
this song F***en rules!!! it is kinda scary lol but nevertheless good as hell haha .. get it ? hell ? ehh .. i didnt think so . FOR life baby !!!!
"Why fear the unknown the presents as painful As being ignored"
This song is pretty scary. What do you guys think his religious views are? He mentions religion in just about all their songs.. I'm just wondering?
"por vida" means "by life" in spanish, if that makes any sense or if anybody cares
seems he's pretty pissed at God...
i know he had a pretty shitty childhood & ended up living on the streets as a teen. I've been a fan of them for a few years but they've only toured in the pacific norhtwest recently. They kinda remind me of a punk rock Rage Against The Machine. iono- anyone else agree?
Clearly this song is about religion, and failed faith. It's evident in every single word.
hmm life kinda doesn't matter much...cause when you die...it's all gone. ...So cast off what is mortal and discard all your dreams They all turn to shit in the end and you wake up in hell
i think that the song is talking about how useless praying is..... They lived for the living god you ignored every word We'll all grow old and die as our pleas go unheard it deals with how most people take a false comfort in believing that someone is hearing their prayer.... I said thanks for your patience god and all your wisdom and strength It also tries to tell you not to be afraid of death...Why fear the unknown the presents as painful as being ignored
