Almost all album titles fall in one of two categories: The album shares the title with one of its songs (the title track) or, alternatively, the album title is independent from the songs (no title track).

However, there are examples of songs that have a central link to the album title without sharing the same name. In these cases, certain lyrics from the song were chosen as the album title.

This (alphabetical) list shows the names of these “hidden title tracks” and the central lyrics that gave the name to the corresponding album.

Please feel free to suggest more of your favorite metal/hard rock examples of these “hidden title tracks”.

100. Hell - Human Remains
NO MARTY'S CAGE: Pallor taints my haggard face, I strain and struggle to remain / A member of the human race

I didn't write it down when listening to at the time, but the outro specifically mentions the album title, although it is not written in the lyrics.
NO MARTY'S CAGE: "In a world devoid of divinity, only the human remains..."

... which is also the intro of their follow up album "Curse and Chapter" as the outro and intro flow into each other. So this could be included into your other list for misplaced album titles as well.
GEHENNAE INCENDIIS: "In a world devoid of divinity, only the human remains..."
