someone want to attempt the complete lyrics?

this is what im hearing:

prayers / triangles

theres a new strange...
godless demon awake, inside me

theres a force divine
terrorizing the angels i keep

while we dream

prayers (prayers)
layed on the lines (layed on the lines)

you will never be free
you will never be free

army to slave
to the farland... the air around you

while this curse divides
it slowly riding the wave... inside me
while we dream

prayers (prayers)
layed on the lines (layed on the lines)

you will never be free
you will never be free

triangles (triangles)
placed in your mind (placed in your mind)

you will never be free
you will never be free

be away x4

god, will you never?!
walk this steel gate?!
how many times?! feel my memory!
i pull my heart out, wait the anger!

prayers (prayers)
layed on the line

you will never be free
you will never be free

triangles (triangles)
placed in your mind (placed in your mind)

you will never be free
you will never be free

prayers! (prayers)
triangles! (triangles)
prayers!

you will never be free
you will never be free

god, will you never!?
walk this steel gate!?
how many times? i feel my memory
pull my heart out, wait the anger!!
i pull my heart out... be away.

props to @Knucklestones

The lyrics are beast!

...at least the lyrics.

I miss that higher pitched snare sound from Abe, that used to cut right through the mix perfectly. Just one song though so whatever.

[Slacker]

There's a new strange
Godless demon awake inside me
There's a force divine
Terrorizing the angels I keep
While we dream..

Prayers (Prayers)
Laid on the line (Laid on the line)
You will never be free
You will never be free

I'm a true slave
To the fire and the air around you
While this curse divine
Is slowly rotting away inside me
While we dream..

Prayers (prayers)
Laid on the line (laid on the line)
You will never be free
You will never be free

Triangles (Triangles)
Laced in your mind
You will never be free
You will never be free

Prayers
Triangles


That's all I can understand. 

nice one, im taking your second verse. great job!.

Yeah, I've never understood why they went away from Terry Date.  Dude captured their sound incredibly well.

Yeah, bring back Terry. Still loving the new song though.

Now THAT I would like to hear again. I'm a fan of everything Deftones have done but I do miss that snare sound.

There's a lot I'm enjoying in this song. Sergio's bass sounds really good, I love the little elements Abe's put in, I like what Chino's done with the vocals. All sounds very promising.

I'm going to have to try and listen to this song as little as possible before the album comes out.

[ANattyRat]

I don't dig the hype for this song. It's just boring and perfect to some mainstream rock radio. The bassline and drums sounds like in RX Queen, nothing new for me. Also the bridge is KNY-ish.

I expected just a little more dynamic, powerful record not only on choruses.

I assume this is the most straightforward-sounding, typical Deftones song on the album. They're not going to release, for example, the song with Jerry Cantrell, for a first glimpse into the album, you know? They want something that'll appeal to most fans, and most fans will be happy with a song like this, because it's simply Deftones. Ticks all the boxes. I'm very sure this is nowhere near the highlight (musically or vocally) of the album. I'm expecting a great album, to be honest. I love the song, but I don't consider it to be a representation of the overall sound of the album, so it hasn't changed my expectations at all. That's just me though. I never have to worry much about not liking Deftones albums, thankfully.

I know that this is only one song, the whole album will contain 11 tracks, but I simply don't get all the words in interviews said by Chino and the rest about the new way of recording songs etc. I see no difference. With that or without, Chino's inspirations are well known.

In the other song snippet I can hear some similiarity to "The Years" by Crosses. Deftones are copying their older tunes?

What snippet, one of the Instagram ones? They're not confirmed to be from Gore, they could actually be new Crosses songs for all we know, or just something else. Either way, I think you will find similarities to their older songs, that's just what happens sometimes. Certain songs remind you of others. As long as it's not like Rosemary completely copying part of it from Diamond Eyes, I'll be happy, haha.

[E-Money]

Gotta say I'm enjoying it! And man this will be a killer song live. Love the dynamics and it's got a shit ton of groove to it. I think this sounds new and fresh but it's still definitely deftones. Love this band.

really excited to hear it on vinyl, very flat right now.

So far I'm really digging the song but the transition from the screaming to the chorus is a little jarring.

"steel gate"?

I thought he was saying "we'll never walk this street again"

[Far away]

Wait, whos producing this thing again? Im kinda lost... someone mentioned earlier that Terry was producing and now ppl are asking Terry to come back. Help?

I feel like this reddit user has the lyrics nearly spot on:

Spot on. Although I think it's probably "The only time I feel like my own" instead of "The only time I feel like I'm a lone". Makes more sense to me

After listening on YouTube I'm understanding it better now. I like the aquatic feel of the guitar during the verse against the image of Flamingos. There's something really provocative with that image and the title "Gore". I'm getting familiar with the song layout as well.

[defTHE1s]

So glad they decided to upload it to youtube, now being enjoyed at 320 and waiting 6pm to go meet Stephen at Guitar Center

OMG... ask him those questions that torment us here in SL! (FOD, Eros, Smile (it was re touched or is the original mix and if he asks Chino about the meaning of the lyrics)
If you can/wish haha but if not, enjoy it dude!
