Nevermore is a North American progressive metal band from Seattle, Washington. Their precise musical style is debated by fans and critics alike. The band incorporates elements from styles such as death, thrash, and progressive metal into their songs, and also makes use of acoustic guitars and a wide range of vocal styles. They started in the beginning of the 1990s, when the band Sanctuarywas pressured by its recording label to change its musical style, switching from heavy metal to grunge, which was obtaining mainstream success at the time due to bands such as Nirvana and Pearl Jam. Two members of the band, vocalist Warrel Dane and bassist Jim Sheppard, didn't agree with the change and thus proceeded to create a project of their own.

All The Cowards Hide Lyrics

Nevermore

It's time to play a game
a game of chances
and now recall the names
of those who passed before us
today you could lose your life
do as you're told tow the line
hypocrisy is what we die for
cattle to the slaughter born are we?
all the cowards hide
as their puppets dance they laugh
they pull the strings
It's time to play your hand
the cards have been dealt
atone the sins of man
and cleanse your spirit
do what they say surrender will
and you wont go to hell
a human pawn of suited cowards
there is no truth, only power
all the cowards hide
as their puppets dance they laugh
they pull the strings
all the pawns resign
to the wheel of chance
they watch the wheel spin
no one wins
fall, obey, another number meets the end
all the cowards hide
as their puppets dance they laugh
they pull the strings
all the pawns resign
to the wheel of chance
they watch the wheel spin
all the pious lies
we subvert the minds of youth
to lead them to truth
all the pawns resign
the appointed fools
opress our worthless generation
fall, obey, another number meets the end
obey, obey, obey
fall, obey, another number meets the end
pray, you're saved
your hidden past is the last laugh
obey
