I find it weirdly endearing how he and the Lamb come across as friends and partners for the better part of the song. And even after the betrayal, it's implied the Lamb spares him.

[@cherry414]

And then marries him

[@iasminprati]

I've felt this song as a love one at certain time, and I loved it ❤

[@anondabomb]

@@cherry414Then puts him back in chains.

[@EndercakeTheMessenger]

[@anondabomb]

@@EndercakeTheMessengerI was referring to torturing him by keeping him locked up and feeding him shit.

[@dudical111]

"Can you tell me why I should have to die, get sacrificed, when I'm the stronger one?" *"Betray me now and face the wrath of Death itself!"* That escalated quickly.

[@-Halc-yon-]

went from 50 to 200 really fast

[@sculkwizard]

Well ye he's the God of death and the lamb thinks he's stronger then death lol

[@splattygaming1615]

​@@sculkwizardI mean, they are.

[@krisspychissp]

I mean it *was* the implication of betrayal and to be fair this guy has been waiting for 1000 years which is an unfathomable amount of time to be unable to do anything

[@zygardegodslayer4750]

Even better, they're *both* saying it. The lamb is *also* death itself at this point, and the demand for them to kill themselves is a betrayal that has incurred their wrath.

[@sgthometar]

Nari had a little lamb, Whose fleece was as white as snow. And wherever Nari sent, His lamb was sure to go. They followed to the gates of hell, The lamb was made to kneel. But Nari's vessel did defy, And change unholy deal Tisket, tasket, Red flowers in a basket What was once the god of death Now lie in a casket

[@VortekTheUnfunny]

The Lamb saying he's ready to die to then realizing he's stronger than ALL the Bishops, including Narinder, is good.

[@TheShinjiakamoto]

The small details of this are SO good, and I love the story it tells. How the lamb and TOWW are completely separate voices at first, and how "But if it's time to die.." implying the lamb understanding the inevitably of a person who's time has come. Before they meet and parrot "Held/tied up by chains", a small difference suggesting the different views of the lamb and TOWW. Followed by TOWW and the Lamb syncing up perfectly as they become equals in that the Lamb is acting as a follower of his gods will. Before he starts deviating.. "I'm having so much fun" and "I'm making friends" showing off the lambs more friendly, caring, innocent view of his actions rather than TOWW's more violent and vindictive views. Then TOWW foreshadowing the Lambs rise to power by saying "YOU'RE the one they fear" Before the Lamb PREEMPTIVELY beginning the next line, showing that while he's still doing TOWW's will, he's doing it of his own volition now, rather than to serve. Before stopping at "know my name" and waiting for TOWW to finish before declaring we know HIS name. Even extending it for emphasis. And finally, TOWW making his hidden intentions known to sacrifice the Lamb and return from death. (With the hidden extra of telling him to "embrace the end" which ironically, TOWW is doing the opposite of" Prompting the Lamb to rebel and, as he was in the beginning, separate himself from TOWW as the god of death itself, once again syncing up with TOWW as equals but this time not in servitude but to vye for the position of the god of death, with TOWW separating to condescend the lamb and refuse to accept thatit's his time, inadvertently surrendering his position of god of death by refusing it's natural cycle, before once again syncing up. But this time they sync up as equals not as two gods vying for the position but, once again as a god and follower, but now with the roles reversed and Aaaaaaaaaaa it's so good!

[@barletproductions]

still love how even in the song lamb goes "wait I have all your powers and your weaker than me now..why do I have to die by your hand when I can just as easily protect everyone and become the new god?" which The One who Waits obviously mad states how you're gonna face a fate 10k times worse than death for going against him.

[@JAVOTI]

I find it clever how you've made the one who waits verses sound more heavy metal and rock 'n roll, while the lamb sounds more cute and whimsical. As if the lamb became the very thing he swear to destroy in the end.

[@Narinder-vu7pc]

Yh I loved it about the music changes too lol

[@sknigge94]

I know and I LOVE IT it’s so cute ❤

[@s-idney]

"I'm just a little guy. I don't wanna die" Inspiring stuff.

[@biddy9275]

Agreed

[@danbrowski6064]

They used ai generated art. None of this drawn.

[@dudical111]

I've listened to this so many times, and I'm picking up on so many awesome details, I love it! My personal favorite right now is when they sing, "The world will know my name", the lamb starts singing it later than The One Who Waits, but he sings it for much longer... Honestly, the lyrics are just incredible, how you can slowly see the lamb becoming more and more powerful and The One Who Waits becoming less powerful in contrast, like when The One Who Waits says, "You're the one they fear", he didn't realize that that meant that they didn't fear the One Who Waits nearly as much... It was truly starting to become, the Cult of the Lamb.

Lyrics: Verse: I was a bishop of the old faith I was a ruler and a god Now held by chains, in disgrace I'll bide my time, I'll wait You'll be an avatar to free me You were a victim hunted down, last of your race At the Gates of Hell you'll face your fate Pre-Chorus: I'm just a little guy I don't wanna die, get sacrificed Ba-da ba bah da-da The prophecy says I'm the one they want So, if it's time to die... Chorus: Come closer to me I still have need for you, have no fear Held in chains (Tied up in chains) I'm in the land of the dead But you're here at my side now Back to the world above now To fight in the name of The One Who Waits 2nd Verse: Growing stronger from the worship For the slaughter of the gods I'm in their grip; With your sword Your ranks will grow, bring me more Kill the bishops one by one (Now I'm having so much fun!) From their blood I'll rise again (I'm making friends) We'll build a church of the damned The One Who Waits now demands: 3rd Chorus: Go further for me You've made them bleed, you're the one they fear Build a new world upon the bones of the dead With you here at my side now Conquer the ones above now The world will know my name (Know my name) Bridge: Return the crown, and embrace the end With this sacrifice, I will be freed Approach the altar and Lay down your life at my feet (Lay down your life at my feet) Pre-Chorus: Can you tell me why I should have to die Get sacrificed, when I'm the stronger one? Betray me now, and face the wrath of death itself Now it's your time to die Final Chorus: Come closer to me It's time to slaughter the lamb, at last Freed me from chains (Freed you from chains) I'll put you back in the ground Blinded by greed The foolish idol has come, to die Holding a sword against the strength of a god But the vessel is stronger Back to the world above now to serve as One of the Cult of the Lamb

This gives me a nostalgia feeling of back when I listened to a new DA Games song in the early 2010s. 😁

You're right. Now that mention it the song really sound like in DA Games style.

By the way, have you heard BlueBurst's remix of another one of LSE's original songs, Intruder? In my opinion it's on par with this.

I'M OBESSED WITH THIS SONG. Literally my favorite Cotl song so far, I've listened to this so many times already

[@RainbowWaffles]

Man, I love your work in general, but I just basically got done with the main story when you'd released this. Such a badass song, and such a great telling of the game's story.

[@CreativeMindsAudio]

This went from Disney musical pop rock to metalcore. This is pretty cool! Captured the vibe of the game I dig it! can't wait to add it to my apple music!

[@forcicri93]

DUDE OMG This is legit one of my favorite songs about COTL, and there's a lot of them that I love. I think this could be the second best one, behind Wool Over Our Eyes by The Stupendium. That masterpiece is just unbeatable. You got really close tho, so huge props

If a song like this was in the game itself, there would be more of a redeeming factor for the fight against The One Who Waits.

[@nersesbrawl7111]

you have a very brutal voice, although I understand that it was most likely edited, and it could not have done without special effects, but still you are a cool rock guitarist and singer (with or without editing) 👏👏👏
