Q&A
Denounced, Disgraced Lyrics
Traitor! How you've betrayed our blood
Broken the bond that had set us apart
From this world so unforgiving
Can it be true that I once walked through fires with you
Forced to cut you down just another enemy
The road long fought to victory
Cancerous poisoning anchored by this weakest link
Turn your lying face in utter shame
Denounced, disgraced
We bury you now still while you breathe
Dead as the void that you've left here in me
Deeper and deeper spent memories
Cremating all that would bear your disease
An end is what you wanted, the end is what you'll receive
Onward into battle forever we soldier unflinchingly undying and free
Forced to cut you down just another enemy stripped of immortality
Cancerous poisoning how the smallest violin does sing
As the obituarist cries out your cursed name
Now as the towers fall crumbling at our feet
Lay down your sword you must answer to me
Leper, banished to be
We punish your treason unmercifully
Liar, ears deaf to your pleas
There'll be no remorse - no sympathy. Bleed!
That very blade which lead you to battle in defense of our name
Shall cut a red ring 'round your throat
To little too late the flood waters break
While you've dared to call down the most savage of storms
Violent reprisal written in blood
To so cruelly be made an example of
To so cruelly be made an example of
This is war revenge has been sworn
Ha! As the towers fall crumbling at your feet
Lay down your sword you must answer to me
Now! Impaled pariah disown your majesty
Your grave been not welcome here amidst the halls of elite
Broken the bond that had set us apart
From this world so unforgiving
Can it be true that I once walked through fires with you
Forced to cut you down just another enemy
The road long fought to victory
Cancerous poisoning anchored by this weakest link
Turn your lying face in utter shame
Denounced, disgraced
Dead as the void that you've left here in me
Deeper and deeper spent memories
Cremating all that would bear your disease
An end is what you wanted, the end is what you'll receive
Onward into battle forever we soldier unflinchingly undying and free
Cancerous poisoning how the smallest violin does sing
As the obituarist cries out your cursed name
Now as the towers fall crumbling at our feet
Lay down your sword you must answer to me
We punish your treason unmercifully
Liar, ears deaf to your pleas
There'll be no remorse - no sympathy. Bleed!
Shall cut a red ring 'round your throat
To little too late the flood waters break
While you've dared to call down the most savage of storms
Violent reprisal written in blood
To so cruelly be made an example of
To so cruelly be made an example of
This is war revenge has been sworn
Ha! As the towers fall crumbling at your feet
Lay down your sword you must answer to me
Now! Impaled pariah disown your majesty
Your grave been not welcome here amidst the halls of elite

Does anybody think this could be about the falling out with John?
Yeah that's what I thought when I first read the lyrics It really does seem like that
Yeah that's what I thought when I first read the lyrics It really does seem like that
the dead giveaway that this song is definetley about John is when he says "sripped of immortality". considering they refer to themselves as "the immortals" in their album covers
I don't think it's about John since in the Majesty dvd they mention his departure from the band and the remaining members thank him for his time in the band and whatnot. If this is about John, then it seems they're angry he quit but they wasn't pissed during the dvd; they wouldn't have interviews with him in Majesty if they were I would assume.
Basically all The Black Dahlia Murder lyrics for this album on this site are not accurate ????♂️
