Killswitch Engage

The End of Heartache

A Bid Farewell

---

Vocals

I like that the vocals go all over the place. My least favourite vocal is the singing one but it has it's place. I have only heard a few other songs by this band, one being with another singer. I think this is as low as I have heard Howard go.

Music

I liked the way this started. I don't like the chorus as much although I listened to it several times and it makes sense and I get it in my head, so I guess they did something right. I like how the riffs change right before the chorus the second time.

Lyrics

I like the positive way this song is suggesting that change can happen. It is saying goodbye to the things that aren't helping. I think this is a skill to try to live your life recognizing what is helping you and what isn't so much.

I will bid farewell to all lies
I will bid farewell
Sever the ties

Sever
Searching, always searching
Hoping for a change
