About Metalingus

Like "In Loving Memory," "Metalingus" was never a single but it is one of the band's most popular songs and is a live staple. The title, originally a working title, is an amalgam of the words metal and the suffix -lingus, meaning tongue. The song was used by the WWE Rated R Superstar Edge as his entrance theme from 2004 until his retirement in 2011. He then made his return to the ring in 2020, using the theme once more. The song is well known for its aggressive heavy sound .

Metalingus Lyrics

[00:26.73] I've been defeated and brought down
[00:35.48] Dropped to my knees when hope ran out
[00:42.11]
[00:44.31] The time has come to change my ways
[00:55.84] On this day I see clearly
[01:00.32] Everything has come to life
[01:04.61] A bitter place and a broken dream
[01:09.16] And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind
[01:18.35]
[01:23.46] I'll never long for what might have been
[01:30.45] And now regret won't waste my life again
[01:38.54]
[01:40.91] I won't look back, I'll fight to remain
[01:52.47] On this day I see clearly
[01:57.02] Everything has come to life
[02:01.29] A bitter place and a broken dream
[02:05.83] And we'll leave it all behind
[02:10.13] On this day, it's so real to me
[02:14.57] Everything has come to life
[02:18.99] Another chance to chase a dream
[02:23.20] Another chance to feel, chance to feel alive
[02:35.22]
[02:46.11] Fear will kill me, all I could be
[02:54.82] Lift these sorrows, let me breathe
[03:03.62] Could you set me free?
[03:12.40] Could you set me free?
[03:19.23]
[03:21.39] On this day I see clearly
[03:25.86] Everything has come to life
[03:30.06] A bitter place and a broken dream
[03:34.54] And we'll leave it all behind
[03:38.81] On this day, it's so real to me
[03:43.27] Everything has come to life
[03:47.41] Another chance to chase a dream
[03:51.92] Another chance to feel, chance to feel alive
[04:03.24]
