Coheed And Cambria - Delirium Trigger

"Delirium Trigger" is from the album "The Second Stage Turbine Blade," available now. Get the album here: bit.ly/cohered-and-cambria
Lyrics:
We're now up here, alone
Terror on the intercom, can someone save us?
Systems malfunction, blast it, this damn machine
Over and out, captain
Something lurks, creeps on the counter top
Somewhere behind you
Parasitic cyst, I can't stand to watch
It's coming up and out of your chest
Remember when we were young?
Sit up, right on the table
A photograph of earth feeding me a way back
Frightened, I tear alone
Or maybe not the the only one there
"Hello?"... "Hello"
When it rings, will you answer?
There, corner tall short stance, it's you
Come on, kill me
You made a good friend to me
But while you were outnumbered and torn
You made us do things
Oh dear god, I don't feel alive
When you're cut short of misery
Will you pray it be the end?
Give a look surprised, wide eyes to me
Then you'll know just what I am
The scare that triggers your fear
Come know me in a different light now
Come know me as god
You made a good friend to me
But while you were outnumbered and torn
You made us do things to you
Run sand, hourglass
It's my time, will I be worth?
Spin 'round, carousel
When your horse isn't screwed in
Oh dear god, I don't feel alive
When you're cut short of misery
Will you pray it be the end?
Give a look surprised, wide eyes to me
(Raise forth lost cause!)
Then you'll know just what I am (Subtle demise, legitimate cry)
The scare that triggers your fear
Come know me in a different light now
Come know me as god
(Raise forth lost cause!)

Probably the best Coheed song, this whole album was just amazing

[@ManuelMartinez-wv7dm]

In keeping secrets still bis imo

[@czerro1]

Yeah, I forgot how awesome this album was...but thinking about the lyrics is kinda upsetting. Every single song has kinda a 'molestation' element to it. It's throughout all of Second Stage Turbine. I'm not exactly sure what he is trying to say. I want to like these songs, because they are incredible, but the lyrics are kinda icky when you think about them.

[@shaodynasty1017]

They are truly masters of their craft. They take their music and imagery so seriously. They use tight click tracks live too, the band is so fucking tight live its beautiful. Everyone screaming the end of IKSOSE3 is some of my favorite moments ever

[@simplyerayn6278]

My GOD I just randomly had this pop up and haven't clicked on anything so fast in my life. I used to adore this song, and it hasn't gotten any worse in the years it's been. This song will forever hold a special place in my heart, even when I unintentionally let it slip my mind.

[@sportacus3193]

I come back to this song because I often get the phrase "parasitic cyst" stuck in my head and forget where I heard it so I look it up and find this song again and again 😂😂

There’s a pharmaceutical commercial with a side effect of parasitic cysts, and I can’t help but screaming “I can’t stand to watch, it’s coming up and out of your chest!” every single time I hear the damn commercial. I love this song.

[@LHydro]

So concisely accurate 🖤 I remember listening to this when I was being fracking oppressed lol truly tho. I was sent to one of those programs shortly after. I think I got one of Claudio’s drumsticks at a show, soma back in the day in SD. The bass of this song. The darkness, the dysfunctional chaotic energy is authentic but upbeat enough to live and even talk out to God… 🥀🌹

Currently on a nonstop trip through this band's discography but taking my time as I go... Discovered good apollo im burning star IV first and listened to that nonstop, now I've made my way back to the start and this whole album is fucking mindblowing. Throughout the day I keep wanting to just scream OH DEAR GOD, I DON'T FEEL ALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!! The drums on this song in particular are so mesmerizing. I love the tight garbage sounding snare, and the double snare hits in that chorus are just amazing!

[@albrhyno3398]

I’m re-learning this song on acoustic right now just so I can scream OH DEAR GOD I DONT FEEL ALIII-IIIIVE. I feel you.

[@MeMeMcsplosion]

There's something really nostaligic, almost video-game like about the clean guitar arpeggio at the start, i can't explain why.

[@shawnmclaren8924]

Dude I know exactly what you mean! It reminds me of the in-game music of the og splintercells

[@HotShame0]

This gives me nostalgia for absolutely no reason, i dont know why. it reminds me of simpler times when my biggest worries was nothing.

There both amazing! This song sounds so mysterious and Welcome Home has that great solo in the beginning. But yeah this song is probably way better and just overall more beautiful.

So interesting story. Someone did a mashup of all the Alien movies(Prometheus included) and put this song to it. The song fit so we'll the lyrics followed the scenes with every word, for example "Parasitic cyst, I can't. Stand to watch. It's coming up and out of your chest. " As the chest burster emerged from one of the crew members in the first Alien. Well it's Gone! Some asshole took it down for what reason I don't know but I desperately want it back

No, tons of bands ahead of C&C. Especially if we are talking about "ever". Ahead of C&C are bands like Black Sabbath, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Led Zeppelin, Parliament/Funkadelic, The Grateful Dead, Metallica, Voi Vod, Iron Maiden, Ministry, certainly TOOL, and more. And, this is just bands under the genre of "progressive". C&C's music is tight as hell, but they are lyrically shallow. I like them, but they are way down on my list. Top 50, maybe. lol One of the greatest of the last 30 years, sure, I can go along with that.
