SYSTEM OF A DOWN LYRICS

  Lyrics - System of a Down Lyrics

 :: Biography
 :: Albums





Not long ago, accepted sonic belief held that rock music,
certainly hard rock music, had been stretched, manipulated
and tinkered with to its logical end. With no new forms
looming, the genre would slip into malaise and the kids
would look elsewhere for an outlet. Enter Los Angeles
quartet System of a Down, who, over seven years and two
albums have revived and revitalized heavy music with their
manic brand of post-everything hardcore. Millions of
records on, they charge into the new century as living
proof that for those brave enough to snub convention,
greatness follows.

“I think we're ahead of the game,” says
guitarist/songwriter Daron Malakian. “I just feel like this
band will be more respected ten years from now when people
finally figure out what we’re re More...

    Review about System of a Down

    rockage | Reviewer: tema
        ------ About the song B.Y.O.B performed by System of a Down

    i love this song and i get that it is saying that war isnt a game and lives shouldnt be thrown away like yesterday's trash. our government needs to support us instead of misleading us. B.Y.O.B. can mean several things. from bring your own bomb to be your own boss. but all of these point to a central meaning that our government is curropt. in short, awesome song.


    God is wearing black | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Soldier Side performed by System of a Down

    the line "God is wearing black" always sends a shiver down my spine when i hear this song...

    its like a clown killing people wrong and odd in every way. i think this also has a message about not just going into war because someone tells u too. they reflect over the times of the crusades in europe "Bishop tells the King his lies" that time they lied to everyone just to murder thousand s of innocent muslims for no reason other than taking back the grave of jesus which they had no right to... powerfull song and i love it


    Spiders | Reviewer: Michelle
        ------ About the song Spiders performed by System of a Down

    I think this song is called spiders because we have nowhere to hide from cameras and remote viewing and when Serj says "your lives are open wide, the v-chip gives them sight." it means you have nowhere to run and hide from anything because you are being watched by someone. And when he says "Before you know all awake" it means before you know it someone knows what you're doing.
    This is one of my favorite songs by System of a Down


    Wrong Word. | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song I-E-A-I-A-I-O performed by System of a Down

    The word "mine" in the part about plutonium wedding rings should be the German word "mein" which means: my. It should be "mein" because he is referencing Einstein who was a German physicist and created the atomic bomb.


    Terrible. | Reviewer: Bekah
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    System of A Down is one of my favourite bands, but this song is terrible. "The most loneliest day of my life?" come on. Learn how to speak English. And rhyming "exist" with "missed" and "banned" with "stand"...this song should be entered in a third grade poetry contest. Oh well, every band has at least one song that sucks, and this is one of them.


    Not SOAD's best work... | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    SOAD is my favorite band, but I cannot stand this song. I understand that people can really relate to the meaning of it, but that does not make up for the laughable grammar and elementary school rhyme scheme. SOAD has written a lot of meaningful, clever, and unique songs, but this song simply does not make that list, sorry to say. "Such a lonely day should be banned. It's a day that I can't stand." There isn't an ounce of sophistication in those lyrics. In fact it is exactly how I wrote poetry when I was in 4th grade.


    message to my american friends | Reviewer: real citizen of the world
        ------ About the song Soldier Side performed by System of a Down

    hi there people, i think the war is unfair when it is against civilians like in afghanistan or irak where they real enemies are dead and there are only innocent people trying to throw out invaders.........AMERICANSS!! this war is not yours you're not trying to defend your country. you're invading another country with political pretexts dont be lambs of a few ambitious politicians making fun of you questioning your patriotism.....be patriotic is to love your country not to hate others..i hope you catch the message


    Amazing song but... | Reviewer: itziee
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    It sucks out loud to hear it if you're going through something sad; "And if you go, I wanna go with you; and if you die, I wanna die with you" is the line that gets me the most.
    Bottom line is the song's great.


    O__o | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song chop suey performed by System of a Down

    of coarse it has to do with religion Serj is very spiritual and some of the lryics are ripped right out of the bible as a matter of fact what Jesus says on the cross...most of his songs are related to religion/spiritual. it doesn't have to be specifically about Jesus i think it is more about relating to that pain of being forgotten (forsaken) but the part that relates to religion is just part of the song what about the first part? the part about a girl putting on make up to hide the marks of her being beaten her hastily leaving the keys on the table...think about that part some more and you may find the meaning of the song. (could be a he but i assumed female =X)

    and soadfan93, a true fan WOULD try to interpret it but a true fan would not argue about it, they said themselves that our lryics are open ended and open to interpretations to how YOU feel the song relates to you. stop arguing dweebs and take your own meaning, songs might mean something different to someone else, deal with it -.-


    Its in the Eye of the Maker | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Chop Suey! performed by System of a Down

    Its pointless to speculate on why the song was made or what the song is about cuz we didnt write it. we have no idea what they were thinking when they wrote this. regardless, we can all agree that this song is irrefutably fuckin' awesome.


    Bravo SOAD | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Prison Song performed by System of a Down

    I believe they're referring to the way drugs became more prevalent in low class and working class neighborhoods during the of the 70's, following the Civil Rights Movement, particularly in the black community. You don't hear many bands saying that shit. Bravo SOAD.

    The war on drugs is bullshit. If they really gave a fuck they'd declare a war on poverty.


    YOU & ME WILL ALL GO DOWN IN HIsTORY | Reviewer: JAZ
        ------ About the song Sad Statue performed by System of a Down

    Yo this generation sucks we live in a society where your free to live the way you want bull shit you don't have a fucken choice the president tells you to do something you better fucken hop because we live in a fucking american dream and theres no room for failure Thanks for reading this


    you and me will all go down on history | Reviewer: {(JAZ)}
        ------ About the song Sad Statue performed by System of a Down

    you and me will all go down in history well whos going to watch you die your fucken mother nope shes not even going to be at your fucken pothetic funeral burying the fucken dead with flowers and cries toward god thanks


    Soad musik | Reviewer: Bill
        ------ About the song Cigaro performed by System of a Down

    There are antichristian songs. Epica for example have such songs. Several death or doom metal bands make antichristian musik but SOAD musik is noway sth like it. What's more the musik you are listening to has nothing to do with your religion or the way you have to behave, in my opinion...


    nice one!!! | Reviewer: Terr
        ------ About the song Lonely Day performed by System of a Down

    this song soo tells about how one day for evry body could be so damn lonely..n on top of that listening this would make it miserable..
    but!! these guys rock... very catchy..n some one really wrote it outta pain!! cheers serjian!!


    Who's Big Idea is that! | Reviewer: RICKY SMITH
        ------ About the song I-E-A-I-A-I-O performed by System of a Down

    Whatever the song is about, it's deep that's for sure!These guys are "Absolutely Amazing"!, Music,Lyrics,Delivery, "Everything". I think it's amazing all the different ideas people come up with, to say what the song is about, or what they think the song is about. What people think songs mean goes way beyond what any song was ever about.AND THAT'S WHAT I THINK IT'S ALL ABOUT! LOL!


    Review about Toxicity | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Toxicity performed by System of a Down

    @RyanEffinRiot

    "has anybody ever thought that they are just writing random shit down? that they aren't really that into politics? for real, sometimes insanity can be confused with genius. and sometimes being retarded can be confused with cool."

    I studied music fulltime, when you're playing a guitar for up to 14 hours a day, you get good at guitar, not politics, economics, psychology or philosphy - you don't somehow infuse information. You learn about those other things at university and over years of work in related jobs. Musicians have ideas, but the ideas are limited by the confines of their limited knowledge, ie only impressive to the musician, and young people who have yet to study much. Musicians are entertainers - similarly, give Obama a guitar and see if he starts to shred - fat chance. Lyrics often inflate the most mundane idea or activity. System is great entertainment, but if you're looking for genius, you'd be closer in the direction of Chick Corea Elektric Band.


    someone ! | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Lost In Hollywood performed by System of a Down

    Great song ! I think they show Hollywood as a bad place, wchich is changing and destroying young people, with dreams of making a career. They come there and they're abused, used, and they become rotten and with no morality.


    well. | Reviewer: RyanEffinRiot
        ------ About the song Toxicity performed by System of a Down

    I'd never been really big on SOAD until i started getting a ride home from my brothers best friend in high school. he listened to SOAD more often than not.

    they do have really great shit out and the only problem i have with that is that people still sit and talk like they're the best thing thats ever happened to this world.

    has anybody ever thought that they are just writing random shit down? that they aren't really that into politics? for real, sometimes insanity can be confused with genius. and sometimes being retarded can be confused with cool.
