Stillborn
Black Label Society · Skullage [2009]
Stillborn, I have become
The feelings I once felt are now dead and gone
I've waited here for you for so very long
So empty, just a shell of a man
Stillborn, this I understand
The feelings I once felt are now dead and gone
I've waited here for you for so very long
I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you
For you
The feelings I once felt are now dead and gone
I've waited here for you for so very long
I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you so long
I've waited here for you
For you
Stillborn
Stillborn stands as a heavy, atmospheric track from Black Label Society's 2009 album, Skullage. The song reflects the band's signature blend of hard rock and metal, driven by Zakk Wylde's distinctive guitar work and powerful vocals. Released during a period where the group continued to refine their sound, the recording captures the emotional weight and sonic density characteristic of their mid-careera output. The track fits within a broader discography known for exploring themes of loss, struggle, and resilience through a lens of amplified distortion. As part of the Skullage collection, it contributes to the album's cohesive narrative of dark, brooding energy. Fans of the genre will recognize the song's place in the band's extensive catalogue, offering a moment of introspection amidst the high-octane performances that define their live and studio presence.
