Heresy - Asha X Carvae (NIN Cover) 1.5 min edit

An old demo ep, with vocal scratch/ scat tracks, extended messy bridges, missing riffs and layers, and places where the lyrics require tidying and revision. Maybe one day these will be tracked in a decent studio...

WIP - it's an instrumental jam for the moment. Until I rearrange it and throw some melodies and vocals in there. Maybe a small restructuring to add some dynamics and define a chorus... 
or not, this was fun, whatever I end up doing with it.

"You tie us down with divine weights, 
and hold us there, and shut the gates. 
Through slippery teeth you say, 
'the door is opened wide’, 
it's another parlour trick. 
That unintentional lie you tell even yourself, 
that creates the hope 
that I could ever reach your concept of light.  

So you get to define and control.
And you deny that my soul ever had a light of its own.  

And before I was even five, 
you had already stolen the light from my eyes“

A re-interpretation of the Brams Stokers Dracula soundtrack - the first 2 mins of the first track. "Dracula , The Beginning"


A friend made the captivating suggestion for me to take the soundtrack from Brams Stokers Dracula and reinterpret it.

I couldn’t shake the idea out of my head, so I decided to not overthink it, make a start and see what might emerge.

I pulled out different fuzzes and distortions and layering some tracks to make a ‘pallet’ of tones to shape and build on.

-Lyrics-

I was born into rules I never chose.
Each word held chains I didn’t know.
Wore names stitched in before I could speak.
Silenced by a cage built into my skin.

They call it order, I call it fiction.
Scripted roles and plastic gods.
You don’t see the wires dig in,
But they still pull.

[Chorus]
This is all made up,
Every throne, every cage.
Built by hands like ours…
And we can tear it down.  (tear it down)

[Verses]
Truth is whispered through gritted teeth,
Still echoed in our robes of grief. 
Bent and buried by unmarked stone.
We are not what they told.

My blood on his hands he said, “Men don’t cry”,
Fixed his cuff, left the wreckage behind.
What we call power, is fear in disguise,
What we call normal, is someone else’s lie.

They call it order, I call it fiction.
Scripted gods and plastic fools.
You don’t see the wires sink in,
But they still pull.

 
[Chorus]
This is all made up,
Every throne, every cage.
Built by hands like ours.
We can tear it down. (tear it down)

This is all made up,
Every law, every name,
Forged in fear and pain,
We can tear it down.  (tear it down)

[Bridge]
No chains below.
No gods above me,
If it can be built,
It can be broken.

If it can be built,
Then it can be broken. 
If it can be broken,
it can be built.

If it can be built,
Then it can be broken.

If we can be broken,
We can rebuild.

[Outro] 
We are made,
We are unmade.
We are the authors now.

Unmade
