Darkest Hour Lyric Interpretation Contest Winner Announced!

Darkest Hour’s MetalSucks-sponsored tour in support of their new album, Godless Prophets & The Migrant Flora, is now well under way! The album is out, too, and it’s incredible; we liked it a whole lot, but don’t take our word for it. Listen here.

Before the tour began, we launched a contest asking fans to offer their best interpretation of John Henry’s lyrics on the new album track “Timeless Numbers.” Here’s the prize pack:

• A copy of Godless Prophets & The Migrant Flora on vinyl
• A hand-written lyric sheet from vocalist John Henry
• A Darkest Hour t-shirt
• One pair of tickets to any stop on the tour

And here is the winning entry, courtesy of Danail Georgiev, which made us laugh a whole fuckin’ lot… and really, really sounds like what John Henry is saying when read along with “Timeless Numbers.” Hit play on the track below, then read along.

I was born with a poisonous heart
Burned under the blackest soul
Where Ragga smacks everything
MINE LEGHORNS!

Where Nivea touches us
We are the producer
You’ll blaze for what they did
I TOO, THIS IS THE LAST TIME!!!

Wot is dis place?
No wordy speaks??
They love leghorn, so it’s different TO CD!!!
Where did they crime?
TO CONQUER TO DIVIDE
THIS IS THE NEW BEGINNING
THE END OF LIME

BLAAAAGH

TIMELESS NUMBERS

Where every word’s been poured to
There will always be
My failure TO GUIDENESS!!!
You’ll always be
A LOST OF CONTROL! >:@

So please be with dick
For this like to spill me
REST OR TO UNDRESS?
THIS WAS SO HAIRY!

And now that I’ve seen your face
And look you at the sore eyes
I see the risen, the story of a long costume

TIMELESS NUMBERS

PRAY THE LIFE FOR
ALL OR THE LOST

[$hredz]

And I have woken the eye
It’s turning to the god
That blissful everlasting
That blood will always pour!

Wot is dis place?
No wordy speaks??
They love leghorn, so it’s different TO CD!!!
Off where did they crime?
TO CONQUER TO DIVIDE
THIS IS THE NEW BEGINNING
THE END OF LIME

And no one will wake you
Forgiven, forsaken
The eye of the creator
Is blind to my soul.
