Last but not least, Every Time I Dies' "Rendez-Voodoo"

"Rendez-Voodoo"


 The final song sounds isn’t as dark and has more a of ‘fun’ feel to it. The reason this song comes off not as dark despite the metal-like lyrics is probably because the pace constantly changes and the bass can be distinctly heard. The band Every time I Die is a metal band fitting under the subcategory of southern metalcore due to their moderate southern sound. The title of this song even reflects southern influence “Rendez-Voodoo”. The electric guitar comes to life beginning the song with a few taps from the drums establishing the beat. This singer’s voice makes the lyrics easy to hear as he starts off the song. Its a smooth, easy opening with a continuous beat for the first half of the song.

Lyrics:

"You'd better shove another piece of what's left into your mouth while the gettin' is good. because you know the highs are running low, and every new is getting old.


Lord, I've been down since you've been seeing another boy.
Me and my girl are gonna smoke the cigarettes that we find in another man's tray. We're gonna pick all the meat from the big city bones because the hot is getting cold.

Lord, I'm not proud. keep you chin up the water will boil, the comet will come for us all. so make amends with anything you've ever loved and open your arms to the swarm.

We have salted the earth. raid hell! raid hell!

You'd better drink up, get your sorrows in, because we're coming upon where the ending begins. the nickel city's new church says "no one allowed" since all the lights are going out. 

The end is near. I will be delivered. We've filled our bellies with so much repulsive flair I'll explode if I'm not forgiven!!!
Make amends with anything you've ever loved and open your arms to the swarm.

We have salted the earth. raid hell!! raid hell!!

You'd better get it while the gettin' is good, corner boy. You know the highs are running low. You'd better shove another piece of what is left into your mouth. We need to learn to go without.
There is no plan for the dutiful. we dried the country making room for our grave. but my time is sure taking it's time running out."
