“Unleashed”, the first single from the new album, will be released on June 25th

Killswitch Engage will release the first single from their new album, “Unleashed,” tomorrow, June 25th. In anticipation, the band has released part of the lyrics to the new song.

Not much is known about the group's eighth album. Vocalist Jesse Leach previously commented on the lyrics he wrote for the work. "There are some very angry and political things," he said, stating that everything was written with a certain ambiguity. "I prefer to read it as a story rather than as a direct statement."

Check out the lyrics below:

Deceive me / release me / unleash me

You've unleashed the wild within

 

Welcome to the madness that dwells inside these eyes

Pushed unto the breaking point you're running out of time

 

This innocent blood is in your hands

Deceive me / come face to face with the final stand

 

Release me / it's the part of me you can't understand

Unleash me / you've unleashed the wild within

 

You who spoke defiance / you who spoke in jest

The last of all my tolerance has left this broken man

 

I remind you time and time again

 

You've broken the restarts against your heart / against the dark

Can you feel the pain of those you betrayed

The promises unmade

Broken hearts that fill with shame

 

And you're to blame

Do they call your name

 

There's nothing left to say

There's nothing left to say
