The Uninvited Lyrics


What was sacred lost forevermore
Watch your hatred washed up to the shore
Underneath I still can feel the pain
What you took can never be replaced

Stone faced liar
Your hate vile

For the blood you waste this will fall on you
Now your fate has been decided
For the life you take this is overdue
You are now The Uninvited

Sirens screaming blood against the wall
No more saving innocence at all

No shame spineless
Cold rage of violence

For the blood you waste this will fall on you
Now your fate has been decided
For the life you take this is overdue
You are now the uninvited

Soon you'll feel all my agony
Soon you’ll know it
All you feel will come to life and it won’t be long
For tonight you are gonna feel my pain

For the blood you waste this will fall on you
Now your fate has been decided
For the life you take this is overdue
You are now the uninvited

For the blood you waste this will fall on you
You are now the uninvited

Stone faced liar
Stone faced liar

The Uninvited
  • This song almost didn't make it onto Fortress. Guitarist Mark Tremonti explained to MusicRadar.com : "It's got this hammer-on thing, and Scott (Phillips, drums) was like, 'That's just like a Tool riff.' So, for a while there, we were like, 'OK, let's shelve this and move on.'"

    "But eventually, we came back to it," he added, "and said, 'OK, let's just make this as un-Tool-like as possible and go with it.' Everybody is influenced by somebody or something – a lot of times, it's a subconscious thing – so if an idea is really strong, you just have to give in and see it through."

    "The song was a dark horse," Tremonti concluded, "and for a while we were probably thinking it was a B-side track. Once we finished it, it seemed to jump out at us. I guess we didn't know what we had all along. Now it's one of our favorites."
