Cover art for Laid to Rest lyrics by Lamb of God

"If there was a single day I could live... A single breath I could take I'd trade all the others away"

Sounds like a life lived full of regrets. To be able start over again and live just a single day. No it's so important to undo what has been done I'd trade it all for a single breath. A single breath lived that I would live perfectly. My life to not be a waste.

"I'll chain you to the truth, for the truth shall set you free"

I think this could apply to a lot of different things. The world seems to be going to hell quickly. Most people don't realize what they are donig. Everyone is very selfish. Think of what the world would become if we all stoped being so self serving and helped each other.

"Console yourself, you're better alone Destroy yourself, see who gives a fuck Absorb yourself, you're better alone Destroy yourself, see who gives a fuck "

More references to the self serving individual. If they are not in the world they won't make a real difference. Maybe if they had a single second they wouldn't fuck it up.
