*Verse 1*  
Walking down the path we used to know  
Shadows of yesterday, they start to show  
The echoes of our laughter, fading fast  
Moments we thought would forever last  
The sun sets slowly, casting its light  
On the remnants of a love that felt so right  
But time has a way of stealing away  
The dreams we built in a single day  

*Pre-Chorus*    
I keep looking back, trying to hold on  
But the shadows of yesterday are nearly gone  

*Chorus*   
Shadows of yesterday, haunting my mind  
Searching for the love we left behind  
In every step, in every word we say  
We’re chasing the shadows of yesterday  

*Verse 2*    
We stood on the edge, with stars in our eyes  
Believing in forever, never saying goodbyes  
But the winds of change blew us apart  
Leaving only fragments of a broken heart  
Now I walk alone, through this empty space  
Trying to find the pieces, to see your face  
But the pictures fade, like a worn-out song  
And I’m left wondering where we went wrong  

*Pre-Chorus*    
I keep reaching out, but you’re out of reach  
The shadows of yesterday, they never teach  

*Chorus*    
Shadows of yesterday, haunting my mind  
Searching for the love we left behind  
In every step, in every word we say  
We’re chasing the shadows of yesterday  

*Bridge*    
I hear your voice in the midnight air  
A distant memory, but I’m still there  
Shadows of yesterday, everywhere  
But the light of tomorrow, it’s so rare  

*Chorus*   
Shadows of yesterday, haunting my mind  
Searching for the love we left behind  
In every step, in every word we say  
We’re chasing the shadows of yesterday  

*Outro*  
Shadows of yesterday, they fade to gray  
But in my heart, you’ll always stay  
I walk this road, where we once stood  
Tracing the memories, as best I could  
In the silence, I hear your name  
But the shadows of yesterday are never the same  
I’ll carry the weight, I’ll bear the pain  
But the shadows of yesterday, they still remain  
In every shadow, in every breath I take  
I’ll remember the love we couldn’t make  
Shadows of yesterday, they fade to dust  
But the memory of you, it’s more than just  
A fleeting moment, a passing phase  
In the shadows of yesterday, I’ll find my way

Shadows Of Yesterday

Sensual Pleasure

A harrowing soundtrack to the downfall of civilization, Collapse of the Human Era is a relentless descent into war, corruption, and decay. From crimson battlefields soaked in blood to the poisoned veins of a rotting society, each track tells a chapter of humanity’s self-inflicted demise. The echoes of lost cultures fade into the void, while famine and oppression tighten their grip on the powerless. Marching through wastelands of ruin, the last remnants of once-great empires crumble into dust beneath blackened skies. As the final collapse looms, the weight of greed, destruction, and despair seals the fate of a world beyond salvation. Crushing riffs, haunting orchestrations, and apocalyptic intensity make this album an unflinching requiem for mankind’s last days.

The Wasteland March

ur crazy matches mine
feel hazy, losing time
when im with u
there's no one else like u
there's no one else like me
yet we're bonded

sitting here wondering 
is this all a dream
i can't tell the difference
for the life of me
will u save me
if i start to lose control

if I die
with u by my side
please babe don't cry
it hurts too much inside
now u know why
ill wait here tonight
for things to feel right
like when the stxrs align 

now we're laying in bed
what was that thing u said
if ur not here I may as well be dead
oh baby u can say that again

sitting here wondering 
is this all a dream
i can't tell the difference
for the life of me
will u save me
if i start to lose control

feel my body on top of ur body
oh yeah

if I die
with u by my side
please babe don't cry
it hurts too much inside
now u know why
ill wait here tonight
for things to feel right
like when the stxrs align
like when the stxrs align

when the stxrs align

Every chorus tells a tale of hope and every breakdown tells a tale of darkness – that’s the painfully sincere premise of latest metal output Savage Mountain from Dortmund, Germany. In a restless artistic endeavor, the threepiece spent the last two years working on their first EP “What Lies Beneath My Sorrow”. With it, singer Karl Erik aims to channel music into a form of diary writing – leaving no stone unturned in his attempt to understand his own story and dealing with the hardships of loneliness, despair and the never-ending search for identity.

Fogbank Rising

Inspired by the movie "American Werewolf in London"

Lyrics:
[Prologue]
“You wandered so far…”
“Endured so much…”
“And now, at last, you stand before me.”
“But tell me… where did you think you were?”

[Verse 1]
"I have seen the flames, I have felt the weight,
"Walked through shadows, cursed my fate.
"I beg release, I beg escape…
"Let me rise—let me wake!"

[Pre-Chorus]
"Step by step… deeper you tread…"
"Every turn… led by the dead…"
"Is this Hell… or something worse?"

[Chorus]
“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

[Verse 2]
"Every sin, every crime,
"Every circle, every sign.
"I thought I fell, I thought I burned…
"But I was blind—I never learned."

[Pre-Chorus 2]
"Step by step… deeper you tread…"
"Every turn… led by the dead…"
"Is this Hell… or something worse?"
"A cycle cursed… a world perverse…"

[Chorus 2 ]
“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

“NO GODS ABOVE—NO DEVILS BELOW!”
“ONLY LIES—AND YOU SHOULD KNOW!”

“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”
“LOOK AROUND—SEE THE FLAMES!”
“TELL ME NOW—WHAT HAS CHANGED?”

“NO GODS ABOVE—NO DEVILS BELOW!”
“ONLY LIES—AND YOU SHOULD KNOW!”

[The Breakdown]
“YOU WALKED THE NINE—BUT NEVER LEFT!”
“HELL ISN’T BELOW—IT’S WHERE YOU STEPPED!”

“BREATHE IT IN—YOUR FINAL BREATH!”
“LOOK AROUND—THIS IS DEATH!”

“EVERY WAR—EVERY CRIME!”
“EVERY LIE—EVERY TIME!”
“EVERY FLAME—EVERY CHAIN!”
“HELL IS HERE—IT’S ALL THE SAME!”

[The Final Words]
"You begged to leave… but open your eyes…
"This Hell… was always home."

[Guitar Solo]

[Expanded Chorus]
“YOU NEVER LEFT—YOU NEVER FELL!”
“THIS ISN’T HELL—YOU KNOW IT WELL!”

“ONLY LIES—AND YOU SHOULD KNOW!”

“EVERY LIE—EVERY CRIME!”
“EVERY LIE—EVERY TIME!”
“EVERY FLAME—EVERY CHAIN!”
“HELL IS HERE—IT’S ALL THE SAME!”

"You begged to leave… but open your eyes…
"This Hell… was always home."

“EVERY LIE—EVERY TIME!”
“EVERY LIE—EVERY CHAIN!”

“I HAVE LOOKED AROUND—THIS IS DEATH!”
"I BEG RELEASE, I BEG ESCAPE!
“HELL IS HERE—IT’S ALL THE SAME!”
THIS IS DEATH!” (THIS IS DEATH!)
THIS IS DEATH...

[Outro]
“No heaven, no escape…
“Only fire… only fate…
“The lies you lived… become your chains.”
“Hell was home… all along.”

THIS IS DEATH...

“No heaven, no escape…
“Only fire… only fate…
“The lies you lived… become your chains.”
“Hell was home… all along.”

🖤 “End of The Line”
A deathcore requiem for those who scream in silence.

This track is a whispered eulogy from a soul on the edge. Blending atmospheric gloom, spoken word, and emotional breakdowns, this is AXAXC’s most vulnerable piece yet—a lament of mental exhaustion, abandonment, and self-erasure in a world that doesn’t listen.

[Slow eerie start – Male Voice]
I am at the end of my rope...

“I am hated for my gender. I am hated for my skin. Unappreciated because I am nice. Unloved because I am scared.”

Lyrics:

[Slow eerie start - Male Voice]

I am at the end of my rope
I know I won’t be here soon
This battle is one that I can’t win
It’s been like this for as long as I can remember
This feeling of emptiness in my chest
A void so deep
Hell called, wants me back

I really have nothing left
I don’t think I can keep this up forever
I feel like a powder keg about to go off
I have friends
I have family
But I am a burden
And they will be better off without me
My mind is such a mess
I don’t think I can handle it

I have never been so lost before
Thoughts and dreams of the future
Pass me by

I wish that was me
I wish I could have a happy ending
But some of us are not that blessed

I know this is selfish
But what else do I have
I have not made anyone proud
Not even myself
I have no one I can open up to
The world is a cold place

I am hated for my gender
I am hated for my skin
Unappreciated because I am nice
Unloved because I am scared

I have learnt that I am nothing special
When I found her I thought
She could fix me
Love me
Help me
But she destroyed me and all I am worth
She took my spark and innocence
I would have given her the world
In the end she took the world from me
I am numb
So numb
I couldn’t care if a bomb went off and a million people died

I don’t know what I like or don’t like
What I care for and what I don’t
I cannot be happy
Fake smiles to keep everyone okay
Sometimes I wish you could all
Forget me

So one day if I am not here
Please forget me
Please understand that
It was always going to end this way

This is the End of The Line.
