I Dreamed I Died Lyrics
Destroy all or nothing
I dreamed I died, ended up at the gates of Heaven
Greeted by a man Saint someone, said how's the
ride son?
It's been alright, at times a little rough, why am I here?
You did alright, lived a little dark and that's alright
'Cause we made the darkside and the rightside is to have no fear, no fear
My whole life flashed in front of me
I saw
everything that I was and what I had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And
then I heard damn boy you done good
Did the every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn
good
When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will
destroy all or nothing
When the sky opened up and the clouds parted clear
There wasn't any doubt to why I was here
And I
knew I'd done a good job, the best job that I could do
So now it was time to move on, to get on, to get back
To the question
of why I was here and what I had learned, no fear
My whole life flashed in front of me
I saw everything that I was and what I
had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And then I heard damn boy you done
good
Did every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn good
When you hear the call, bury
them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing
My whole life
flashed in front of my eyes
Goddamn, wake up, bad dream, bad dream
When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or
nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing
Greeted by a man Saint someone, said how's the
ride son?
It's been alright, at times a little rough, why am I here?
You did alright, lived a little dark and that's alright
I saw
everything that I was and what I had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And
then I heard damn boy you done good
Did the every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn
good
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will
destroy all or nothing
When the sky opened up and the clouds parted clear
There wasn't any doubt to why I was here
And I
knew I'd done a good job, the best job that I could do
So now it was time to move on, to get on, to get back
To the question
of why I was here and what I had learned, no fear
My whole life flashed in front of me
I saw everything that I was and what I
had done
Even let me look back on some good times for a little fun
Yes, a little fun
And then I heard damn boy you done
good
Did every little thing that you could
And then I heard damn boy you done good
Damn good
When you hear the call, bury
them all
Destroy all or nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing
flashed in front of my eyes
Goddamn, wake up, bad dream, bad dream
When you hear the call, bury them all
Destroy all or
nothing
When I hear the call, I will bury them all
I will destroy all or nothing

Dez, interview for metalupdate.com:
"I woke up about three-thirty in the morning, man, had a fucking dream, and I was sweating like a motherfucker. And [my wife] Anastasia, she was like "What's going on?" I went out in my living room and wrote it. It was like a dream that I died, but I still, I wasn't ready to go, I was like, "I've got so much more to do." It was at that point that the fears and everything came into what was going on."
This song is one of the best on the album. finally a band that dez belongs too.
Yeah, his voice is well suited to heavy metal.
This song is so cool, it is my second favorite, after "Die (and die now)".
Dez is one of the best vocalist in metal
This song owns.
The grand owner of songs I must admit, I came back just to restress this fact
This song is exactly as the title says, dez woke up sweating, he had a dreamed that he had died.

theres a interview there bout it
Guiffporn, it is actually thrash metal, heavy metal doesn't have that kind of growl
this is the song that got me into devildriver.
goldennug to be completely nerdy with you this song is technically called groove metal. But who gives a shit its all good.
Just from reading it, my idea of the message is you gotta do the best you can with life. Relating that to "go big or go home" instead "Destroy all or nothing". "then I heard damn boy you done good Did the every little thing that you could" Going back to doing the best you can at everything in life.
I also was thinking that in the song he talks about dieing and going to heaven and god would be the logically correct person who could be saying good job, which would make me think he is conveying the message of do your best at life and you go to heaven, just a thought.
