“Oathbreaker” is the ninth track on Blessthefall’s fifth album, To Those Left Behind. Lyrically, the song is about backstabbing friends.
As “Oathbreaker” was premiered on Revolver, clean vocalist Beau Bokan shared:
This track is a no bullshit, balls to the walls banger. I think we’ve all had peopl...
[Verse 1: Jared Warth]
Take back all the years that we've wasted
Your face hasn't changed
But you've become what we've hated
What happened to us versus them
Our lives are divided, I'll never give in
[Pre-Chorus: Beau Bokan]
It's too late to turn it around
How can you live with yourself?
Your loyalty can't be found
How can you live with yourself?
[Chorus: Beau Bokan]
In time, the thoughts will fade
Their words won't mean
What we want them to say
Inside we watched them be
The enemy that I thought that there'd never be
[Verse 2: Jared Warth]
I took the fall for all you're decisions
You call this love? I call it blind ambition
You've turned all your diamonds to dust
I tried so hard but it wasn't enough
[Pre-Chorus: Beau Bokan]
It's too late to turn it around
How can you live with yourself?
Your loyalty can't be found
How can you live with yourself?
[Chorus: Beau Bokan]
It's time, the thoughts will fade
Their words won't mean
What we want them to say
Inside, we watched them be
The enemy that I thought that there'd never be
Fighting in cycles, living in shadows
Inside, we watched them be the enemy
That I thought that there could never be
[Breakdown: Jared Warth]
I would've given my life for you
But the path that you've chosen has fucked everything
You fucked everything
You fucked everything
Take back all the years that we've wasted
Your face hasn't changed
But you've become what we've hated
Take back all the time that we've lost
I tried so hard but it was never enough
[Chorus: Beau Bokan]
It's time, the thought will fade
Their words won't mean
What we want them to say
Inside, we watched them be
The enemy that I thought that there'd never be
Fighting in cycles, living in shadows
Inside, we watched them be the enemy
That I thought that there could never be
