about

Fun Fact: This is technically two songs! The groovy bit at the end is called "Stay Mellow," and it's designed to help you wind down after a long 10 minutes or so of headbanging your fucking brains out to this mega-single thingy. We've got you covered, friend. Spark up with your favorite strain and relax.

The first song's about murder, though. Because metal.

Believe it or not, those were not the sound effects originally planned for the end of the song. See, the mic was still live after the last vocal take (oops), and well... Anyway, it's funny, so it stayed.

lyrics

ONE EIGHT SEVEN
Music and lyrics by C. Michael Hall
Performed by Amid the Ruins

Shots fired, man down
A life bleeds into the street
Cold steel, knife’s edge
The final price for deceit
Consumed with rage
One second’s all that it takes
Blood on your hands
Too late your conscience awakes

There’s no turning back
No undoing this
Are you a maniac?
No undoing this
Death changes everything
No undoing this

One eight seven (2x)

Your judgment is at hand (4x)
