Lyrics for Black Label as interpreted by Hypothermic_Allergy

Black Label Lyrics
The human condition is inherit claustrophobia.
Compression of my space made complete.
I would rip out my own entrails by hand just to be alone.
Inanity rolls total through this sphere.
Ostracized for clarity of vision.
A dream unrealized of solitudethat i should decend into autonomy
& know the pain of fellowship no more. I feel nothing but a lack of space.
Paradox of socialization results in duress.
Rife with hostility, what has caused me so much hate?
Humanity. Exterminate with extreme predjudice.

I've never been able to follow along to "Black Label," but I can follow along to "A Warning" and "In The Absence Of The Sacred."

It's a kick ass song, I've never been able to follow it though which sucks. Especially when you want to sing along with it live

Even the "chorus part" where he screams something that sounds something like he's trying to emulate the waaah sound of the guitar

anyone know what the fuck he's saying there at least?

I think what he is talking about here is the basic social structure of America, and how each person is expect to conform with some typw of norm and when you do not you are "Ostracized for clarity of vision. "
My personal favorite line is "Paradoz of socialization results in duress" refering to how attempts to socialize has actually driven us away from our fundamental humanistic values such as being left alone "I would rip out my own entrails by hand just to be alone." As time to yourself is hard to come by

Rofl.
Everyone making a comment on this songs lyrics is really quite misinformed.
This song has no lyrics.
This song literally is just random screaming.
And no, I'm not trying to say it's bad and stupid and going on some anti metal rant.
This songs words are literally just screams.
There are no lyrics.
They were drunk off their asses when they wrote/recorded.
The end.

I agree with gdawg31.
Its so much in our system to be with other people that its even in your mind, and becomes a part of your essence.
People need to be with others, be it friends, unknown people, fans or a girl/boy-friend
I myself try hard to keep myself away from such need, because I want to be independent so I can do whatever I want.
Anyway thats my opinion about the given lyrics above.
I do think its realistic that randy just blabbers stuff after the first sentence.

I think that Randy takes other lyrics from their other songs and sings them when he sings Black Label live. In Pariah after he says "Stretched to breaking an obscene canvas on a stretcher of parasitism." (approx. 1:20), it sounds like he says something else that that. Well, he says that same thing on Killadelphia at 1:03 in Black Label. I think there's other examples, but I'm not sure.

the song is not gibberish and not something they wrote while trashed on black label beer/whisky whtever. the black label is the label given by society to people who are different and who see things differently, in this case it refers to randy (a metalhead and 'freak' of society). the song is talking about randys hatred for humanity because of its ignorance and desire to conform. its about how humanity forces outcasts to be lonely and therefore hate it. the last 2 lines clearly show a hate for humanity. if you need further proof that randy hates humanity just read his comment in the sacrament booklet

I'm not real sure wat it means but i think it could possibly be about the holocaust. Because in the last two lines he could be talking about how the nazis were hostile towards them and built up hate in them and the last line could be about how hitler was prejudice. And the black label could be the tatoo all the jews got when they entered the camp

one of my all time favorite songs. Its about anger against the human race in general and how fake and materialistic most people are. I could kill a shitload of emo/ scene faggots to this song.

Do you guys realize that he's just wailing and screaming throughout the entire song? I am a HUGE Lamb of God fan but it's true. I heard that they put lyrics over the song just to have something to read. I tried following the song with these lyrics but couldnt understand anything. There was a story about randy being drunk whilst recording this and it might be true. It's a kickass song, but he's just making noise. LoL
