Shaped By Fire

Shaped by Fire is the seventh studio album by American metalcore band As I Lay Dying. It was released on September 20, 2019, through Nuclear Blast. The album was produced by the band themselves and is the follow-up to the group's sixth album, Awakened (2012). It is the first album in seven years after the band went on hiatus in 2014 when Tim Lambesis was incarcerated and sentenced to six years in prison for soliciting the murder of his estranged wife. It is also the last album to feature lead guitarist Nick Hipa before he left the band in 2020, and the last to feature drummer Jordan Mancino and bassist/clean vocalist Josh Gilbert, both of whom left the band in 2022. Loudwire named it one of the 50 best metal albums of 2019. more »

For millennia we've set the stage
All props in place waiting for our cue
The countdown stops
The curtain drops
It's come time for us to tell the
Worst story
On the
Best stage

Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing
Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing

The message has failed to resonate
A tale to which no one could relate
Failed comedy or great tragedy
No standing ovation, still we bow

Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing
Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing

Won't go quietly
Won't go quietly

Some men just want to watch the world burn
While others radiate love as naturally as the sun radiates light
We glorify the darkest parts of humanity everyday
Incentivizing apathy for the world outside our doors
Such great effort made to capture such great insignificance
While using beauty to glorify the waste
We could have never known with the invention of fire
That our first moment in human innovation would lead us down
The wrong path

Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing
Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing
Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing
Isolation, preservation
Sickness hiding in plain sight
History tells a story
Of the apex cannibalizing
