A new suite. Commentary will be attached to the final piece.
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
What is the way
To live our lives
What is the truth
And what is lies
Embrace the way
Of submission
Embrace the truth
In faith and peace
Chorus:
Listen to the prophet
Harken to his words
Build up the pillars
(Build up the pillars)
Verse 2:
Ignore the pull
Of tempting sin
Ignore the lies
Of infidels
Struggle towards
The righteous path
Struggle against
Impurity
Final Chorus:
Join up with the prophet
Give yourself to us
Build up the pillars
(Fight for the pillars)
I’ve been doing this for 2 years. A new song, every week.
This song is about my past. It speaks for itself.
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
They found me
In a dark place
All alone
They promised
Escape from
The Unknown
Verse 2:
I embraced
The new life
I was sold
I took faith
Because I
Was consoled
I thought I’d
Found my
Vocation
I would preach
The way to
Salvation
Chorus:
Bad crowd
Join the bad crowd
Bad crowd
Falsehood enshroud
Bridge:
Could not procure
The funding for
Keeping my place
To fight the war
Thrown to the wolves
Like a worn out whore
Left with the doubts
I can no more ignore
Final Chorus:
Bad crowd
Fuck the bad crowd
This song is about the dangers that arise when you don’t think critically.
The verse lyrics are all ripped from the website what’s the harm? They are all true stories. They are all properly documented. The topics covered are ghosts, repressed memory therapy, UFOs, numerology, chiropractic, ear candling, acupuncture and religious fundamentalism.
The music side of things is very blues inspired for the chorus, with a good dose of progressive rock for the rest….
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Shot, in the head
Looking for a ghost
Put, in prison
By recovered memories
Mass suicide
To reach the aliens.
Watch, a number
Destroy your economy
Chorus:
What’s the harm in? (x3)
Believing
What’s the harm in? (x3)
Believing bullshit
What’s the harm in? (x3)
Delusions
What’s the harm in? (x3)
Believing bullshit!
Verse 2:
Killed, by a stroke
From manipulated neck
Burns, on the face
From an ear candle
Die, from needles
That can’t cure disease
Crash, a jumbo
Into skyscrapers
A totally heavy, but nerdy tune, with the title/chorus being a phrase I “borrowed” from the guys (and girls) of Hak5. The rest of the lyrics are all derived from the kind of topics, ideas and such that you might see on their show. Points if you understand all the references. Bonus points if you actually know how to use such techniques….
The music is totally detuned. I took my Tele’o'doom and tuned it all the way down to Drop-A, which is usually a tuning you’d do on a 7-stringer. For instance it is the typical tuning a Korn song will use. It really gets that sludgy strings flapping against the neck tone happening…. And yes, the intro quote is Jason Newsted (from the S&M doco, when he’s talking about the song Minus Human).
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Escape from the analog
Compile your own direction
Break it all down to packets
Send it through the connection
Wrap it in the protocol
Crypto to duck detection
Don’t let the crash override
Your new gadget affection
Chorus:
Trust your technolust
Trust your techno…. Technolust
Verse 2:
Write it down in binary
Avoid packet inspection
Open the source of data
Digital tubes of perfection
Sweeten with some pineapple
Virtual essence injection
Brute force tables for rainbow
Hackers live insurrection
