Ebb Of Digression (New Lyrics!)


Crimson Jester

846 views

For those who don't know, I play in a death metal band. In the absence of role-playing, I've pitted all of my energies into songwriting. Here's my latest; throw some critique at me:

 

 

I have tailored the end

By means of revolution, the fists of the people will speak

On high ground I stand

Where every footfall beats through my corrupted flesh

Our roots will weave together

In the wake of your plague, cohesive ideas pass judgment on pitiful man

The drums of war

Battle cries ring in unison, screaming for smoke and terror

Nothing you conjure will conquer this day

Your impact shadows your intent

Deceit; dichotomy

You are

Weak; struggling

Breathe

Disease; suffering

The seals of the sun will be your grand jury

And I, the witness

I, the witness

Scribe of the punishment, writ with your black, congealed ebb of digression

The flow of progression

No place for false intention on the ground I stand

Clouds of ash will smudge the marble skies

Tarnish what footing you have left

Prosecutor

Pariah

Prosecutor

Pariah

Though I am man, my ideas transcend your narrow plane

Accessory of extinction

The sun will wane

Set forth by the wake

Rust will rain

Precipitating blades

Piercing your bloated flesh

Blood will cleanse

Blood will cleanse

Well I don't like Death metal at all ( I love other metal though, I'm just not into screaming). But these lyrics are great. I can imagine how the

 

"Deceit; dichotomy

You are

Weak; struggling

Breathe

Disease; suffering"

 

lines will go, and I think they're my favourite bit. Well-written, but can't really judge them musically for obvious reasons.

[color-#483D8B]good god man, these are fantastic lyrics.

 

eons ahead of anything I've been able to write; but then, my lyrical area is more melodeath and thrash, so eh.[/color]
