Beyond Me Lyrics

Where does your allegiance lie?
In failing hearts and idle hands
What corrupted eyes
To heed the certainty of man
You fail me
I never was my final word
I could never be
The only voice I heard

Trust in the powerless
The ever knowing inside
See no deliverance
Leave all conviction behind
The darkest of hearts they cease to bleed

(And) Never deny for the self to lead
You'll find in this a lonely home
No tear consoled
To wander on a nameless road
Beyond Me

Compromise all time unseen
For this, your momentary lust
Pride deafening
Unsung hymns gather rust
No corruption, delusion, enslavement here
Driven not by fear
Not converted to

Trust in the powerless
The ever knowing inside
See no deliverance
Leave all conviction behind
The darkest of hearts they cease to bleed

(and) Never deny for the self to lead
You'll find in this a lonely home
No tear consoled
To wander on a nameless road
Beyond me

I see an aimless soul
In the ruthless cold
Fighting off the call
Dying to be whole
I see an aimless soul
In the ruthless cold
Fighting off the call
Giving in to the fall

You'll find in this a lonely home
No tear consoled
To wander on a nameless road
Beyond me

You'll find in this a lonely home
No tear consoled
To wander on a nameless road
Beyond me

Beyond Me

Vocalist Ryan Clark commented to Decibel magazine that this Extremist track contains possibly the fastest double kick tempo Demon Hunter have ever done. "Luckily, Yogi (Watts, drummer) gets better with every record, so he nailed it no problem," he said.

"One key element to the sound of this record is less programming and sound replacing in almost every aspect," Clark added. "That's not to say nothing was edited, obviously, but there is more of a natural sound throughout, which comes from spending more time getting the right sound and best possible performance…which means less to edit after the fact."

"Certain sections of this song almost give me a (Norwegian black metallers) Dimmu Borgir vibe," Clark continued, "although not as symphonic…and definitely not the pre-chorus or chorus. There's a pretty drastic difference in the vibe of the verses compared to the chorus. I like to find a natural progression from really heavy and extreme to big, sweeping melodic territory. In songs like this, the pre-chorus plays a big part in that. In order to move from the intensity of the verse to this big open chorus, the pre-chorus has to be the perfect transition. It can be easy to botch that concept if you don't have an appropriate way to bridge the two sections."
