I remember seeing them for the first time at Chicago Open Air in 2016, they opened up with this song. I was blown away. Then in the middle of it, storm clouds started approaching, and their performance with the lightening was surreal. 5 minutes after they were done, it started pouring.
@@molasorrosalom4846 yeah i know. it was when he quit smoking and his voice got more powerful, for example if you compare the last scream of the negative one at any 2016 summer show with any 2014/2015 or early 2016 show it's crazy
Fire and caffeine, a lotta nicotine I'm gonna burn, so I better tell you everything The competition, the superstition Never mind 'cause you're never gonna give in It's a crisis, just how you like it The same drama in a different disguise I'm bound to walk with a target on my back At least I'm ready for another attack The lord of lies, the morning star You had to be set free Opposing sides, your choices are The negative one and me, yeah Svengali, why are we the enemies? I never follow, and I never make apologies Your dementias are gonna get ya Because your walls can't support each other Settle for the cynical, you're so political You're getting ready 'cause the first move is critical Reciprocity, somebody's listening What did we learn from our time in captivity? The lord of lies, the morning star You had to be set free Opposing sides, your choices are The negative one and me The negative one and me I hope you live to see the day When your world goes up in flames And as you die, you see my face You're the only one to blame, yeah Fuck The prescient, the nascent, the quotient They all will fall The cystic, symbolic condition Systemic Egregious, replete with these lesions Contaminate Succumb to the selfish creation Your failure Yeah No accountability, divisibility I point a finger, but it's always looking back at me The centipede's pulling on the mechanism Unearthing scars of the cataclysm When the innocent begin to circumvent The color fades, but the picture is vibrant What do you believe? Does it matter now? Turn away, the killer is disavowed The lord of lies, the morning star You had to be set free Opposing sides, your choices are The negative one and me The negative one and me I hope you live to see the day When your world goes up in flames And as you die, you see my face You're the only one to blame The lord of lies, the morning star You had to be set free Opposing sides, your choices are The negative one The negative one The negative one The negative one and me The negative one and me The negative one and me
@@Bahomar How do you mean their actual set? Not they make the set or what? In my opinion the 2020 tour setlist was bit weak. Iam sure they didn't make setlist. Someone else did instead of them.
@@SD-he3pp their current set is what i meant, the one they´d continue to play if corona wouldn´t exist. well, that´s conspiracy thinking, of course they are in charge of which songs they´d play. actually their 2020 set is one of my favourite ones, so it´s a matter of taste.
@@maurosb.4292 so your question was why they did only played it a few times in 2019, well, my guess is that their set was too long/exhausting for them. with TNO included, it was their longest set so far I guess
@@The_Maki1 yeah this song is from the Grey chapter but they toured before the new album came out so when the new album came out they probably took out this song
I was in the 4th row or so but the audio was fucking terrible there. For example I had to recognize The Negative One just by drum pattern. Disappointing.
