Hammer Smashed Face
Cannibal Corpse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's, it's coming out
I feel like killing you
Let loose the anger, held back too long
My blood runs cold
Through my anatomy dwells another being
Rooted in my cortex, a servant to its bidding
Brutality now becomes my appetite
Violence is now a way of life
The sledge, my tool to torture
As it pounds down on your forehead
Eyes bulging from their sockets
With every swing of my mallet
I smash your fucking head in, until brains seep in
Through the cracks, blood does leak
Distorted beauty, catastrophe
Steaming slop, splattered all over me
Lifeless body, slouching dead
Lecherous abcess, where you once had a head
Avoiding the prophecy of my new found lust
You will never live again, soon your life will end
I'll see you die at my feet, eternally I smash your face
Facial bones collapse as I crack your skull in half
Crushing cranial contents
Draining the snot, I rip out the eyes
Squeezing them in my hands nerves are incised
Peeling the flesh off the bottom of my weapon
Involuntarily pulpifying facial regions
Suffer and then you die
Torture (torture), pulverized
At one with my sixth sense, I feel free
To kill as I please, no one can stop me
Created to kill, the carnage continues
Violently reshaping human facial tissue
Brutality becomes my appetite
Violence is now a way of life
The sledge, my tool to torture
As it pounds down on your forehead
The lyrics to Cannibal Corpse's "Hammer Smashed Face" depict a disturbed individual with a violent alter ego that takes control of his actions. The opening lines suggest that the singer is struggling to contain feelings of anger and a desire to kill. As the song progresses, the singer describes being controlled by another being within himself that revels in brutality and violence. The sledgehammer becomes a tool of torture as the singer pounds the victim's head, causing blood and brain matter to seep out of the cracks. The lyrics are graphic and disturbing, invoking images of grotesque violence.
The song is a quintessential example of death metal, with its heavy, distorted guitar riffs and guttural vocals. It was released in 1992 and has since become a staple of the genre. Despite its controversial lyrics, the song has been featured in several movies and TV shows, including Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Workaholics. The band has said that the song was inspired by horror movies and the concept of brutal revenge.

Lyrics:
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from cavin' in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you?
'Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time, you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through
'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

TRUE Lyrics:
There's something inside me
It's, it's breaking out
I feel like hugging you
Let loose the kindness, held back too long
My heart runs warm
Through my soul, dwells another feeling
Rooted in my core, a friend to its healing
Tenderness now becomes my appetite
Love is now a way of life
A hug, my tool to embrace
As it wraps gently around your head
Eyes sparkling with delight
With every touch of my hands
I hold you close and tight, spreading warmth within
through the cracks, love does seep
Gentle beauty, harmony
Warmth and care, shared all over me
Living soul, glowing bright
Affectionate presence, where you once felt fright
Embracing the prophecy of love's sweet trust
You will never feel alone, in my arms you're safe and sound
I'll hold you close forever, eternally I cherish your embrace
Fears dissolve as I mend your heart with love
Caring, comforting, contents
Caressing your worries, I wipe away tears
Soothing you in my arms, all pain disappears
Gentle touch, a balm for your soul
Healing your heart with love's devotion
Peace, and then you thrive
Comfort, revitalized
At one with my warm heart, I feel free
To love as I please, spreading joy endlessly
Created to care, affection continues
Gently reshaping lives with love's tissues
Tenderness becomes my appetite
Love is now a way of life
A hug, my tool to embrace
As it wraps gently around your head.
