As someone who survived an abusive relationship, this song has so much meaning for me. Love it so much it gives me goosebumps. Thanks Halestorm for giving a voice to everything I've felt but couldn't really say.
+Robynelli Honestly, it's been 4 years and I still have hard days every now and then. I ended up in counseling for about a year and it really helped. Mostly just because it was a safe place to vent and because my counselor could offer different perspective. It's just really important to know that you didn't cause it and that you deserve so much better. I'm so sorry you had to go through it and I genuinely hope you find happiness.
I'm still in an abusive relationship but its not romantic. But this new year, i'm breaking free. I dyed my hair for the first time (dark copper brown) and made plans. This new year I'm gonna be the reckoning and the the fire. Good luck to all those in similar situations.
Crossed my heart, broke your promise, told me lies Why did you watch me suffer? Make me feel like I deserved to Everybody takes everybody breaks Somebody's heart leaving someone alone But this felt more like you ripping flesh from bone. You made a mess outta me Where do I begin? You pay for your sins. Like a reckoning You never saw coming I’m the reaper outside your door You took everything Made me feel less than nothing I’m getting what I came for Like the sound of falling stars Crashing in the dark I said a prayer and buried your name And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire The Reckoning I gave you more than my heart could hope for You misused it Scraped up every piece that fell to the floor When you tore through it Laying me to ruin, you knew what you were doing Leavin me just skin and bone But trusting you was no ones fault but my own You get what you give, so take your last breath 'fore I lay you to rest Like a reckoning You never saw coming I’m the reaper outside your door You took everything Made me feel less than nothing I’m getting what I came for Like the sound of falling stars Crashing in the dark I said a prayer and buried your name And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire The Reckoning I shoulda known better than that I shoulda known all along I shoulda known better than that I shoulda known but now im moving on... Like a reckoning You never saw coming I’m the reaper outside your door You took everything Made me feel less than nothing I’m getting what I came for Like the sound of falling stars Crashing in the dark I said a prayer and buried your name And up through the ashes I rose like wildfire The Reckoning You never saw coming, you never saw me coming The Reckoning I'm the reaper outside your door I am The Reckoning For every wrong you did to me I am The Reckoning
I love how the backing track sounds like something you'd expect in a song. Just a backing track (90sish in this case) until you notice the odd progression in the notes Lzzy is singing the lyrics in. Gives you that sense of something darker brewing... A Storm is Coming...
it wasn´t my favourite song at first but with few listenings it really got under my skin...amazing how deeply it expresses emotions and i love that it isn´t typical heartbroken song or not even angry, it has more vengeful and dark feeling to it
this song is the best on the album....personally, I'd add an epic guitar solo in it and change the lyrics to a deeper meaning but the melody and power in this song is easily one of, if not the best that halestorm has ever done. MORE OF SONGS LIKE THIS!
This is definitely one of my absolute favorites of all your songs. The lyrics are all I needed, I am head over heels for this song I don't even know how to express it more accurately.....
Vocally, I think this is one of the best songs Lzzy has done. This is one of my little sister's favorites off the album, and she's an absolute diehard Fleetwood Mac fan. Not sure if there's a connection. lol
Another amazing song of yours. I love the passion & fire you have. I'm so proud of you. I'm so grateful & thankful to God for him letting you be here in this world. You truly are amazing. Thank you for all your hard work & dedication. Keep SHINING your light so BRIGHT. I am the fire is still my all time favorite song of yours. So blessed honey. Sending lots of love, light, blessings, prayers, & healing 🦋
Anyone else feel like this song fits NBC Hannibal perfectly? I first heard this the day a new episode played so it was on my mind and I was like "This is Will, absolutely perfectly!" I love this song so much but I always think of Hannibal now!
This song and Rose in December were the top 2 for me lol bit I have loved them all so far .Got to see then and then hangout for free after the concert took pics, they are sweet and down to earth. This band is one of the best . ♡
I had not heard of them before, but the voice is very good, composition of the melody is excellent. Easily a top 10 song and I will be looking for more of this. I like their style.
This song sent shivers down my spine when it first came out and you know what? It has every time since and here we are mid 2022. Just blows my mind how incredible this song is! 😎🖤
40. "O my Lord! Make me one who performs As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), and (also) from my offspring, our Lord! And accept my invocation. 41. "Our Lord! Forgive me and my parents, and (all) the believers on the Day when the reckoning will be established." (Q.S. 40-41)
This song says it all. It never ends does it? Just another one to rip my heart out and suck my soul right out of my body. You say you will be better alone? Then have at it! Because you will never have a gracious, loving, loyal beautiful woman as me. That's why you had to find me a second time and abuse me with your gaslighting narcissistic manipulation brain crap. And I believed in you everyday and every breathe I took. Loving you, building you up, adoring you while i was lonely, always kicking me out and sad with you right by my side. Praying you would change one day and see the light.. misery loves company. I no longer want to be comany to someone who can't treat me the same. I will never learn.
THIS GOES OUT TO THE DEVIL I LIVED WITH FOR 7 YEARS! WAS IN LOVED ... HE LITERALLY DRUGGED ME.... KEPT ME AS A PRISONOR I GOT OUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD.... GIRLS YOU ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE DONT BE THE NEXT.......... BEST ADVICE I CAN GIVE.... Im A SURVIVOR.. YOU CAN BE TOO~!!
This song is dedicated to debanhi escobar and all the other victims of femicide in Mexico 🇲🇽 one day soon an all those responsible will pay and I'll be uglier that what they did to their victims they'll never see it coming it'll be the reckoning

How did you heal? I've been through the same.

Megan coulter my sis had a marriage of abuse,healing comes darlin,dont lose hope,its the strength of love.

Understand 😢
Easily the best song of the album.
Crossed my heart, broke your promise, told me lies
Why did you watch me suffer?
Make me feel like I deserved to
Everybody takes everybody breaks
Somebody's heart leaving someone alone
But this felt more like you ripping flesh from bone.
You made a mess outta me
Where do I begin?
You pay for your sins.
Like a reckoning
You never saw coming
I’m the reaper outside your door
You took everything
Made me feel less than nothing
I’m getting what I came for
Like the sound of falling stars
Crashing in the dark
I said a prayer and buried your name
And up through the ashes
I rose like wildfire
The Reckoning
I gave you more than my heart could hope for
You misused it
Scraped up every piece that fell to the floor
When you tore through it
Laying me to ruin, you knew what you were doing
Leavin me just skin and bone
But trusting you was no ones fault but my own
You get what you give, so take your last breath 'fore I lay you to rest
Like a reckoning
You never saw coming
I’m the reaper outside your door
You took everything
Made me feel less than nothing
I’m getting what I came for
Like the sound of falling stars
Crashing in the dark
I said a prayer and buried your name
And up through the ashes
I rose like wildfire
The Reckoning
I shoulda known better than that
I shoulda known all along
I shoulda known better than that
I shoulda known but now im moving on...
Like a reckoning
You never saw coming
I’m the reaper outside your door
You took everything
Made me feel less than nothing
I’m getting what I came for
Like the sound of falling stars
Crashing in the dark
I said a prayer and buried your name
And up through the ashes
I rose like wildfire
The Reckoning
You never saw coming, you never saw me coming
The Reckoning
I'm the reaper outside your door
I am The Reckoning
For every wrong you did to me
I am The Reckoning
Without a doubt one of my favorite Halestorm songs. You can feel her justified anger in every breath.
I love how the backing track sounds like something you'd expect in a song. Just a backing track (90sish in this case) until you notice the odd progression in the notes Lzzy is singing the lyrics in. Gives you that sense of something darker brewing...
A Storm is Coming...
Halestorm is one of the best metal bands of the 21st century. Period!
Bad folks never get away with it this song is about karma served on a plate cold
In my opinion, this is Halestorm's best song.
I agree it is my favorite!
Totally agree, beautiful vocal and epic production
This is in my top 5 faves but the silence is my absolute favorite...
Definitely up there with Their Best:
This is a classic. I get real chills listening to this, I rarely get that on studio albums!
They did the whole album live in studio. It isn't chop and paste.
it wasn´t my favourite song at first but with few listenings it really got under my skin...amazing how deeply it expresses emotions and i love that it isn´t typical heartbroken song or not even angry, it has more vengeful and dark feeling to it
My thoughts exactly! I love the vengeful and dark tone of this song.
This has just become one of my all time favourite songs to sing at karaoke. After doing it once.
One of my favorite songs off the new album. Hope to see a music vid for this song. Great work Lzzy and the rest of Halestorm.
ChadWorthingham They should make a music video like Familiar Taste of Poison. That would be epic!
+TheTameWolf1 What do you mean "they have"? O.o
+KevinPaul06 Means they do "have" the music video.
Adriel Ferdianto LOL. The Reckoning doesn't have a music video yet.
Oh sorry I misread your comment. I thought you said they should make video "of" Familiar Taste of Poison. My bad...
THis song has so much meaning to me. This album kicks ass! I love it and boy can Lzzy Hale sing! I love you guys and keep rocking out!!!
this song is the best on the album....personally, I'd add an epic guitar solo in it and change the lyrics to a deeper meaning but the melody and power in this song is easily one of, if not the best that halestorm has ever done. MORE OF SONGS LIKE THIS!
This is definitely one of my absolute favorites of all your songs. The lyrics are all I needed, I am head over heels for this song I don't even know how to express it more accurately.....
FAVE song on the album. Definitely getting some Lita Ford vibes off of this one...
I love you halestorm thanks for giving the world great music to listen too.Hopefully will get to see you in person one day.
Vocally, I think this is one of the best songs Lzzy has done. This is one of my little sister's favorites off the album, and she's an absolute diehard Fleetwood Mac fan. Not sure if there's a connection. lol
I'd wish to see a music video of this song. It's best if they make it similar to the Familiar Taste Of Poison video
Need another album like this 🔥🧡 Best Album so far from Halestorm 🤘🏻
Into The Wild life rocks! :)
One of my favorite albums by them♡
I've been waiting 23 years for this song. Thank You
This is probably my favorite song on the album. I absolutely love it!
Lizzy Rocked DTE on her last night of the Showdown tour. she hits notes that chill me to the bone. keep Rocking Lizzy......Mitch from the Motor City!😎
Another amazing song of yours. I love the passion & fire you have. I'm so proud of you. I'm so grateful & thankful to God for him letting you be here in this world. You truly are amazing. Thank you for all your hard work & dedication. Keep SHINING your light so BRIGHT. I am the fire is still my all time favorite song of yours. So blessed honey. Sending lots of love, light, blessings, prayers, & healing 🦋
I was looking for 'The Getaway Plan' song but found this instead. CANT BE MORE HAPPIER ♥
I hate it when people dislike your videos because all of them are amazing (your my favorite band ever)
I love this direction!! Maximizing Lzzy's vocal talent is a great move! Love the compliments as well! :) Shout out from Toronto!!
I love this song. Like all your guys music it strikes a personal cord.
They posted the songs with the lyrics. YES. I love to know what they're singing rather than trying to interpret incorrectly! Yes!

Anyone else feel like this song fits NBC Hannibal perfectly? I first heard this the day a new episode played so it was on my mind and I was like "This is Will, absolutely perfectly!" I love this song so much but I always think of Hannibal now!

Finally
♥♥♥♥♥ soy la muerte en la puerta d tu casa .
I just want to move forward with privacy an respect but nope it's very sad they can't see there wrongs
Does the first 5 seconds remind anyone else of "Just Like A Pill" by Pink? lol
and i wondered why it sounded kinda familiar. love p!nk so much.
!!!
This song is dedicated to debanhi escobar and all the other victims of femicide in Mexico 🇲🇽 one day soon an all those responsible will pay and I'll be uglier that what they did to their victims they'll never see it coming it'll be the reckoning
