Woe, Is Me - Mannequin Religion

iTUNES: smarturl.it/wim...
MERCH: riserecords.mer...
Six feet under the earth is where you'll reside
It's time to see the bastard you've become,
Because I know your father didn't raise you this way
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree,
And everybody says, you're just like me
I begin to lift up my own flaws, to better you
They say my head is my only prison, so I'll lock you up, I'll nail you down,
I keep you safe, I'll keep you sound, I'll burn this to the ground
So watch where you're standing, for this ground sinks so quick
When you are drowning, in water all so thick, I won't hear you screaming now
I am the monster you created, and like a mountain we look down on kings
You reside in me, my thoughts and my dreams, won't die
I had a feeling this lie would go insane,
I should stab this vengeance through your name
I will survive only to eat you alive

When im 80 yrs old ill still be banging to this album.

[@gabrielpatrick1581]

Allison yo same

[@revinay]

yasssh

[@alifeinseoul]

How is this still so good 10 years later?

[@mehsanhafiz6729]

ikr? and the outro is so addictive!

[@BrucifyMe]

It really aged well. I mentioned this in a much older comment but not relying on a basic "intro-verse-chorus-verse-etc" structure really helped these songs keep their "freshness" and is what makes Numbers such a classic. It's a real shame that the band didn't get a long - they really were lightning in a bottle for the early 2010s "rise-core" scene.

[@CircleOfSvlt]

Ur mum

[@shawnanthony562]

Fucking great

[@Ricardodambrosio]

12 years later 🔥

[@thewolvesarecoming95]

When the song ends, I keep expecting to hear, "Hindsight is my only flaw!"

[@burgzzz]

i love this band because they aren't crazy repetitive and their lyrics are well thought to go with the guitars and drums ugh why fight! this band was gonna go far!

[@TiffaniCheehy]

Tyler's voice is just so perfect.

[@TheZoee98]

this is one of those songs that will never get old omfg

[@weapon_x261]

The Golden Age of Post-Hardcore/Metalcore.

[@beauhartman6799]

yessssssssss

[@crzdog]

[@carlossouza94]

Yes!!!!!! 2020 and I'm here, listening this amazing song!!

[@ohhidee6036]

ye , i'm on my girls account but i'm 29 . i used to see this shit live........i miss these times....golden age for sure. Although...i still enjoy all the new music out these days. Internet keeps you young :D

[@gabrielpatrick1581]

The drums in the song almost bring out a primal like instinct in me to thrash my arms around as if I were keeping this former 7 piece band on rhythm and pulling off those drum fills with no effort 😂

[@GabbyImperato]

tylers voice is timeless

[@weapon_x261]

Gabby Imperato Agreed. I miss his soulful voice though. He went full R&B in issues

[@thatbrit2005]

Always come back every month or so to listen to these gems.. Mann i miss this band -.- shame all the shit that happened to them.

[@abhishekjamod5123]

what happened to them dude ?

[@The_Unkn0wn_5.0]

+Abhishek jamod Things got ugly and they broke up. The lead singer who did the cleans (Tyler Carter), when on to sing for Issues.

[@Chris13FIST]

the dude that screams also went to Issues

[@thatbrit2005]

Issues suck lol 😑

[@cameronnathan6082]

Issues made new "woe is me" look like assholes

[@Th3hall0w]

these newer bands on rise will never compare to the older ones, ugh i miss the old woe.. saw them twice and each time they killed it. RIP woe :/

[@matthewwyley8550]

Best album of all time. It's 2021 and this whole album still bangs.

[@nrubin45]

Favorite song off the album, hands down.

[@eternallyrics885]

I don't even listen to metal core anymore but always come back for some woe, is me & the nostalgia that comes along with this album

[@ajbala5979]

2023 and still coming back to this album. Never gets old.

[@iamditzy]

1:57 best part in a metalcore song ever

[@gabrielbarrios397]

IAmDitzy x2 the best riff and with the voice ... daaaamn so sick

[@Diego_Barrr]

IAmDitzy i like 1:47 better, and like a mountain we look down ooooooooooon kings!!! but 1:57 is dope too lol

[@bellyboyz512]

I used to replay that part hundreds of times

[@maxwelld23]

Well that's not true

[@inheartsbaked192]

yessir

[@evertonadame8183]

This album is so damn good.

[@bbsteel]

Still my favorite album of all time ❤

[@ILoveCaliforniaRolll]

I miss Woe, Is Me .

[@akbar657]

what about a hoe?

[@GameTieTV]

i know how you feel. I come back listening to Numbers from time to time and i am just blown away each time. Its sad that they all went their own ways. The new Woe doesnt sound as good as it does which sucks. However Issues is doing amazing IMO. they are bringing a new sound and doing it very well.

[@woeiseutu6304]

GameTie I listen to this masterpiece a lot of times everyday!

[@rickyrocks]

Go listen to Issues!!

[@mmansour1]

No matter how many times i hear the part at 1:57, it never gets old. Absolute masterpiece.

[@keithgales8484]

I love the chorus

[@Corekid-ep1hu]

There's none

[@chadillacsays8782]

Still 1 of the best songs they ever did for me.

[@SparkleMonster00]

I just started listening to Woe is me, and I'm in love.

[@slayazu]

This album has aged well.

[@Einsteinstwinbro]

greatest song ever created. lyrics do it alone, but the setup is amazing.

[@MrKevinTurtles]

Saw them play this live at the OM&M concert. Was not disappoint.

[@SnapbacksandLowcuts]

so deep man I've loved this song for years !!! I'm glad something brought me back to it

[@chargers1337]

Best song ever by Woe Is Me

[@marcusr7506]

Dem memories... so good album. 2019 and rockin' the shit out off it!

[@Baking_gunpla]

That outro tho, miss this band so fucking much!

[@vortexmistic602]

[@cameronwells3958]

Vortex Mistic me today

[@exia2151]

[@John-wb2kk]

Me! one of my favorite songs.

[@richiealvarez4832]

2020!!!!!!

[@loisspasmiesto8592]

Como assim.. uma banda pode ter absolutamente TODAS AS MÚSICAS perfeitas assim cara T_T

[@Max-dx4gm]

Listening to this nearly 10 years after. Does anyone else remember listening to this on iPod and wondering if they designed the album to sound like one big song when together? :O

[@crisschan2463]

yeap, first ever album i listened whole without skipping, and first ever i known to do it by far its like a reading a novel, or watching a series in one run

[@misosleepy]

I remember being baked at the park in highschool and figuring this out. It was a mind blowing experience at the time lol. 🤯

[@kylecorreia8704]

Such a sick ass song! Deffinetly my favorite by woe is me!

[@wimpman94]

I can't believe I hated the original lineup. This album is amazing!!

[@TIMBUCK2S]

Tyler and michaels voices together *-*

[@WoeIsSophina]

Just ordered a ton of woe is me merch. I love new and old W,IM

[@rozalinshadowheart9435]

Is it okay that I love this song so much it physically hurts my heart?

[@777breebree]

They have a studio update out now with part of one of their songs and it's awesome

[@alexandraloera1400]

Omg this song is awesome I love it

[@LordyomammaVideos]

590 minutes of my life went to this song...Yes i listened to this song around 200 times.

[@ZachLeon]

Finally. I've been looking for a band like this lol. It's like a less *musically* talented The Human Abstract with a far better vocalist. Perfect mix. Love it.

[@RG_Adapt]

That ending though

[@morgielicious1]

Finally someone who enjoys their new stuff too ^_^

[@VVounded]

at 1:45 sounds like hes saying "and like a mountain with a tail" haha

[@KingEmjay]

Confirmed: still a banger in 2022.

[@xMiyazakiAkira]

I swear it never gets old

[@XPlosiveFilmsInc]

Why do I always fall in love with bands right after their singer leaves? When I fell in love with Underoath, I later found out that Aaron left. Then I was starting to get into Of Mice & Men and Shayley left like a few days later. Now I'm starting to seriously get into Woe Is Me but Tyler's gone now.

[@jessegolden23]

Can honestly say I prefer issues, heard these guys back in the day, solid as hell, never sucked me in tho, a friend had been a constant annoyance trying to get me into issues for idk how long, finally caved and have gotten pretty hooked, backtracked to hear what all Tyler's fans "missed" idk I'm my deaf I can hear why people love this sound, just not my cup of tea, too similar to other bands I did listen to around this era, issues sound is more unique and creative sounding to my ear

[@BrucifyMe]

In my opinion, it is Woe Is Me's incorporation of synths/digitalization (like the glitch effects on the vocals) in addition to the fact that none of their songs, at least on this album, followed a predictable structure (intro-verse-chorus-verse-bridge etc) as well as RnB-influenced vocals in a genre like this, which before were only really popular through Jonny Craig, that made them such a standout. It also helped that they gained popularity through controversy, with all the in-fighting and lineup changes, similar to Dance Gavin Dance. Issues has wonderful instrumentation. The jazzy influences present on songs like The Realest and Home Soon are super smooth and well done. However, they are a bit too formulaic and predictable, so I wouldn't personally call them more creative than this.

[@WanderingHobbit12]

i'm in love with them and this is the third song i have heard

[@xliven0m0rex]

All of there songs are so BEAST!

[@ShadowMoses-zu7jt]

Still such a good album!

[@BlackVeilBridesMarga]

the old good Woe, Is Me

[@Nilsen702]

My G.I. Joe listened to this song, Now he's Master Chief.

[@FlameShawtyZuko]

okay so Woe is me is what got me into this kind of music then I dropped post hardcore and got into death metal and death core. SO jw what happened to Tyler Carter?? and where can i find the new stuff with this Hance guy??

[@adrieldbz]

minha música preferida deles! miss you WIM!

[@35ishcookiemonster]

Love this song!

[@carlylesingson7023]

I love this shit! and all the techno stuff!!!! Its all gone on their new album it sucks but i still like them

[@LEADGUITARIST100]

0 - 2:57 is my favorite part haha such an awesome song!!

[@WanderingHobbit12]

agreed i just listened to them today for the first time.

[@MariiBabii]

Im back after all these years

[@koolpoop45]

I wish they stayed like this

[@jessyparent1366]

Love these guys

[@sweetatrocity]

absolutely beautiful.

[@blessedwithapizza]

THIS IS SO SO SO BEAUTIFUL

[@WutangBizkit]

I still listen to this record, nd wonder why? cause around the time this album came out - stand up and scream was really popular, so everyother band was doing the exact same song structure as AA, but not woe is me with this record. now i agree i like issues much more cause woe is me jus has rhis record nd a single with tyler. but i still love this record

[@venessyaddictive]

This song ='s perfection my dear.

[@raginRajun]

Fuck this still bangs bro

[@VoCKillz123321]

@christopherleehuffma the clean vocals are incredible.

[@bixotti]

One of the goats

[@kee94]

Gid Damn I cant wait to see them in a week!!!!

[@jaydotcherry]

I recently listened to their music and I loved it so I didn't know the weren't a band anymore, which sucks 'cause the did really good music.

[@NoNamex22]

its 2021. and I still love this

[@messhk123]

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree and everybody says you're just like me

[@j0jo65]

[@bradylawson3346]

[@franciscogonzalez4l]

[@omfgrsplz]

[@ShutUpAndMosh1234]

Great Song!

[@ErikNordgren]

I'm playin a trick on my high school band. Gonna arrange this song as a band song. It's gonna kick ass in a weird way.

[@TearsAreForeverBlack]

Im scared of mannequins...O.O but this song is an exception! :D

[@greenmilklatte]

To that Cody Tiska guy down there, Andrew didn't join Woe 'til way after this album was made, actually after Fame > Demise even.

[@OGeFFeX]

lol first time i heard of this band was when they played at warped and now i love them

[@bl33zy52]

cant wait to see what they do soon!

[@Void-Realm]

I gotta say I do miss old Woe, Is Me after listening to the new song. I just can't seem to vibe with the clean vocals.

[@bl33zy52]

@@Void-Realm i can understand where youre coming from tbh, i do really like old woe is me before genesis but theres something bout hances vocals ive preferred over tylers

[@sexypanda2442]

Triplet quads, he ALWAYS does that he pretty much just doubled it up and took out the stupid HH and bell, seriously he does that fill a million times in the album

[@IIIZetsubouZeroIII]

1:00 "Well I think soda RULES!"

[@jaydotcherry]

OMFG, WOE, IS ME, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE!?

[@evanescencelover97]
