The Wenlock (seldomly also referred to as Wenlockian) is the second series of the Silurian. It is preceded by the Llandovery series and followed by the Ludlow. Radiometric dates constrain the Wenlockian between 433.4 ± 0.8 and 427.4 ± 0.5 million years ago.
The Wenlock is named after Wenlock Edge, an outcrop of rocks near the town of Much Wenlock in Shropshire (West Midlands, United Kingdom). The name was first used in the term "Wenlock and Dudley rocks" by Roderick Murchison in 1834 to refer to the limestones and underlying shales that underlay what he termed the "Ludlow rocks". He later modified this term to simply the "Wenlock rocks" in his the Silurian System in 1839.
The Wenlock's beginning is defined by the lower boundary (or GSSP) of the Sheinwoodian. The end is defined as the base (or GSSP) of the Gorstian.
The Wenlock is divided into the older Sheinwoodian and the younger Homerian stage. The Sheinwoodian lasted from 433.4 ± 0.8 to 430.5 ± 0.7 million years ago. The Homerian lasted from 430.5 ± 0.7 to 427.4 ± 0.5 million years ago.
My name is worthless like you told me I once was
My name is empty 'cause you drained away the love
My name is searching since you stole my only soul
My name is hatred, I know reasons we both know
Worthless, empty, searching, hatred
Who am I right now?
You're fuckin' wearing me out!
You're always dragging me down!
You're the fake foreign force of nature, sick man!
I don't need a gun to take back what's mine
It's over
It's over now
You're done wearing me out
My name is screaming like the sound of your heart failing
My name is loco like the motive that betrayed me
Screaming, loco, don't say you know who I am right now
You're fuckin' wearing me out!
You're always dragging me down!
You're the fake foreign force of nature, sick man!
I don't need a gun to take back what's mine
It's over
It's over now
You're done wearing me out
You're wearing me out
You're wearing me out
You're wearing me out
You're wearing me out
You're wearing me out
You're wearing me out
You'll be ancient history
But who am I right now?
My name is revenge and I'm here to save my name
You're fuckin' wearing me out!
You're always dragging me down!
You're the fake foreign force of nature, sick man!
I don't need a gun to take back what's mine
It's over
It's over
It's over
You're the fake foreign force of nature, sick man!
I don't need a gun to take back what's mine
It's over
It's over now
