In Between Everywhere

01 Enough

Palace of the Fathers is a concept album that binds the metaphorical implications of living in a society where there is a small amount of very powerful and rich oppressors who set the rules and create the mechanistic system of worshiping materialism. 

Greek mythological figures are used to create our own story where a group of rogue warriors attempt to over throw the power enforced on them. The structure is melodic but focuses on technicality and classical, with a slight progressive influence to create an atmosphere of anarchy. 

Palace of the fathers promises to give you a unique and raw experience within the realm of fantasy. Thank you for your support and enjoy the album, make it spread like a disease \m/

Lyrics:

Above the Ashes

Verse 1

Silence,
Can you hear?
The whisper on the wind,
A challenge to begin
He has walked this world,
A nomad
Forgotten prophet
Of the coming storm

Verse 2

He is lost, but still he wanders
Treading secret paths
Bearer of a name forgotten
The relic of a broken past
He is still, yet he speaks thunder
In a tongue lost long ago
A man who stands both slave and master
To fortune’s call

Prechorus 1

He stands alone there
His eyes turned to the setting sun
As the stars guide him onward this night
His destiny enshrined as he rides

Verse 3

The rain has come
The storm clouds blacken out the sun
As his dreams grow dark and troubled
He feels his day is soon to come
The day when all will stand and die as one
When our song will drown the thunder

Prechorus 2

When we’ll stand together there
Our eyes turned to the rising sun
As the earth burns below us we’ll ride
Our destinies entwined as we rise

Chorus

Above the ashes
Through the wind and snow
Through the eyes of life itself
He’ll wander, a stranger lost in time
You will hear his song
When the stars resound with his name

Desert scene

Whispers in the dark that dance like shadows in the flame
Keep council in the dead of night, they beckon
A test to pass by daylight’s break, a gamble with his soul
To conquer or to be enslaved forever
Stares deep into the eye of the abyss
'Til cold morning’s light ends the demon’s test

Glorious section

Oh, when fate calls to us
It may be on trumpets high
Or as voices on the wind
It speaks in many tongues
Its wisdom cloaked in history
Wreathed in sacred flames it calls
And challenges the will
The resolve
To rise above the ashes
To rise and heed its call

Solo: Niell

Chorus 

Rise
Above the ashes
Through the wind and snow
Through the eyes of life itself
He’ll wander, a stranger lost in time
You will hear his song
When the stars resound with his name

Strident - Above the Ashes

Entry for Twelve Foot Ninja's contest on MetalSucks. I've been busier than a kangaroo with no joints.

Lyrics:

They pledge allegiance to massacre
Compliant silence is not enough

Desire
Bringing the downfall of great empires
Built with treason and demise
Rewire
Resigned minds can't make the sacrifice
Time has come for them to rise, to rise

Bleeders
Left to perish at their own expense
Will still come back for more
Leaders
Midst the silver spoons and golden gates
Declare the war

Weakened forces refuse to merge
Diverge among themselves
Pledge allegiance to massacre
Devote to raising hell

Lies and deceits
Will inevitably be told
Then they’ll slowly realize
All that glitters is not gold

No more fighting to survive

Unite
Defy
Arise!

Conformity is misery

There’s no reason to retreat now

Disrupt the broken patterns
Moved by greed and conceit
Unveil their strengths and weaknesses
Don’t settle for defeat

Allegiance

Contest entry for the latin percussion challenge (vocalist competition)
