I’m loving everything about this one. It sounds insanely good and I cannot wait to hear what else you guys put out!

"The Sands of Time" by Velvet Petals is an energetic blast of raw alternative/indie rock. Fueled by driving guitar riffs, a powerful rhythm section, and urgent male vocals, the track questions the passage of time, fading choices, and identity ('Are we unnamed?'). With a memorable 'Echoes... in time we fade' hook and a fiery guitar solo, it captures a driving, questioning energy perfect for fans of high-octane rock. #AlternativeRock #IndieRock #VelvetPetals #TheSandsOfTime #Energetic #GuitarDriven #Echoes

DEATH OF A BOY

[Verse 1:]
Please, please, please—I’m begging here
Can I wake up in a world that feels sincere?
Where the people I love are close, not gone
Where I didn’t trade my soul just to carry on

I’m frozen stiff, I’m aching deep
In every bone, in every sleep
I threw away the things that mattered
Played with fire, let my whole world shatter

[Pre-Chorus:]
How the hell did I let it slip?
Why’d I panic when it all made sense?
Why’d I throw love off the edge
Just ‘cause we had a fight, just ‘cause I flinched?

[Chorus:]
No, nothing can be perfect
But we were more than good enough
Now I’m buried in the darkness
Dug myself a hole too rough
Please, please, please
Help me set this right
I know it’s up to me…
But damn it—give me back my life

[Verse 2:]
I’ve walked through fire, self-made hell
Tortured my soul till it forgot how to yell
I left the light, chose pain instead
Treated love like a game, till it bled

Why didn’t I let myself be loved?
Why’d I run when push came to hug?
I blamed the stars, I cursed the sky
But maybe the fault’s just me this time

[Pre-Chorus:]
Maybe I had to lose it all
To learn what not to let fall
Maybe I had to break apart
To feel the beating in my heart

[Chorus:]
No, nothing can be perfect
But we were more than worth the fight
Now I’m stuck beneath the surface
Suffocating in my own spite
Please, please, please
Help me make it right
I know I’ve got to move…
But God, give me back my life

[Bridge:]
I don’t have to stay alone
I don’t have to be this ghost
There’s a strength in me somewhere
That I need the most
It’s not God’s fault, not fate, not time
This one’s on me—but I can still climb

[Final Chorus:]
No, nothing can be perfect
But I can still rebuild tonight
I’ve got blood, I’ve got breath
I’ve got one last spark of fight
Please, please, please
Let me see the light
I know I’ve got to rise…
So I’m taking back my life

Lyrics © Señor Barends

Oh oh  
You’re in deep  
Knee deep  
Deep in sleep  
Eyes stitched shut with greed  
You don’t even hear the scream

There's frost in the blessing, the fire's gone cold  
The silence you cherish was bought and sold  
Hands that once built now just claw for more  
Eyes glazed over, blind to the war  
You praise the lie, but curse the whore

There’s so much distress  
The world’s a rotted mess  
They treat truth like trash  
Feast on the clash  
They’ll betray you for cash  
And call it finesse

You’re in deep  
Knee deep  
Wading through sin in your Sunday best  
Open your eyes  
But you just confess

You sleep with your pockets turned out  
Pray to gods who cash you out  
What you reap, you sow  
But you never plowed  
No sweat on your hands  
Just blood from your mouth

You’re in deep  
Knee deep  
Deep in the bones of the deal you made  
Open your eyes
Now your future’s delayed

They’ll betray you for cash
And laugh while they do
Ain’t no saving grace
Coming back for you

You're in Deep
