Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture The Angel of De Lead Player	#1 by The Angel of Death at Dec 25, 2005 at 9:56 PM EST
	i think this song is about nuclear war. "eternal winter" that is nuclear term. "frost on the breath of life" is the word for killing people by trying to kill other things. or it could be like the nuclear radiation on ur lungs or somethin i dont no. thats the thing with lamb of god. there songs are like a story. this is a talented fucking band and i love the way they think. randy is awsome

No Picture drw Average	#2 by drw drw at Jan 9, 2006 at 1:53 AM EST
	I dunno if it is just the version I have or not, but where it says: Frost on the breath of life Empty of warmth or light Full of nothing but deprivation Eternal winter in the lyrics I am pretty sure it says: Frost on the breath of life Empty of warmth or light Full of nothing but deprivation Frost on the breath of life Empty of warmth or light Caught in eternal winter in the song. O.o

No Picture drw Average	#3 by drw drw at Mar 23, 2006 at 12:01 AM EST
	Ok, search depper. Interperet how you want, but at least have a good explanation as to why you believe what you want. Mr. Fuck Bush, seriously. In my opinion, this could be about a relationship. Possibly one of those ones where one pours their heart and soul into it, and the other pushes away, leaving the other empty inside. I don't need to go further, but that's what I think... just listen to this or read the lyrics and think about one of those relationships where you begin to hate the other because they wont take advice and they keep everything inside and wont let you in on aiding them. That's where I start to hate them, and threaten them that it can't go on any longer, hence, teaching them fear (You taught me hate, I'll teach you fear). That's just what I think... and the eternal winter thing is well, we all know winter can really suck and put one in a bad mood, and when a relationship just stays like that where one isn't interacting with the other as far as talking or being assertive, that can really put you down as well and then in the end begin to piss the fuck out of you.

No Picture Steve Wanna Be	#4 by Steve Smyth at Oct 26, 2006 at 8:00 PM EST
	"I believe this song is about is about people who voted for Bush and saw that it was a mistake and are in denile." Mistake? Understatment! Anyway, enough polotics... Lamb of God rules. This song doesn't disapoint either.

No Picture sY Average	#5 by sYsTem oWnS rOx at Nov 9, 2006 at 1:11 AM EST
	the part where he says Frost on the breath of life Empty of warmth or light Full of nothing but deprivation bad ass vocals....

No Picture David Average	#6 by David Gilmour at Jan 3, 2007 at 6:20 AM EST
	awsome lyrics. I believe this song is about is about people who voted for Bush and saw that it was a mistake and are in denile.

No Picture dalton Average	#7 by dalton hoffman at Feb 15, 2007 at 9:28 AM EST
	well if you take out " Full of nothing but deprivation You taught hate, I'll teach you fear Open the eyes, kill despair You tried to squeeze the life from me Son of a bitch, I'm going to break you " it could be about global warming and how the government tries to deny it, and before you bitch read the lyrics

No Picture sean Wanna Be	#8 by sean bradly at Apr 1, 2007 at 6:02 PM EST
	"Dont listen to the assholes that say it is about bush and people in denial for voting for him. This song has nothing to do with bush or any other political subject such as war." This whole album is about politcal subject matter, whether abou Bush or not. Lamb of God have said so themselves.

No Picture jake Average	#9 by jake battkoo at Apr 20, 2007 at 12:23 PM EST
	"You taught me hate, I'll teach you fear" That is quite possibly the most powerful lyric I've ever heard. You can take the Bush intrepretation for face value or you could search deeper...

No Picture Chase Wanna Be	#10 by Chase Hendrix at Apr 21, 2007 at 12:43 PM EST
	i agree with furious angel. the lyrics may seem like bullshit, as any high school pathetic poet trying to be dramatic would write...or it could mean something. and i love the line you taught me hate i'll teach you fear, open the eyes kill despair. you tried to squeeze the life from me son of a bitch i'm going to berak you. THAT is obvious what it means but the rest of the song, im clueless. its aesome though, lyrics and msuic.

No Picture austin Average	#11 by austin pancner at Sep 3, 2007 at 2:32 AM EST
	I love when he says You taught me hate Ill teach you fear
