The Storming
Pages In Clouds 2025

The wind has stilled, the sky won’t breathe,
The light retreats behind the trees.
I see the black tide start to swell—
It whispers like a funeral bell.

No prayer will stop what’s on its way…
So I kneel and let it take my name.

The darkness is coming!
The darkness is coming!
Brace your soul — feel it drum!
Suffer the storming! Bleed til it’s done!
THE DARKNESS IS COMING!
And I won't run!

Clouds like knives and thunder’s grin,
Tearing peace from bone and skin.
I don’t beg, I don’t believe—
I bare my chest and grit my teeth.

Let the winds split open my frame…
Let the rain erase my name…
Let the sky scream straight through me…
I was born for this agony.

The darkness is coming!
The darkness is coming!
Let it crash — let it break!
Let it drown all I fake!
The darkness is coming…
The storming will take…
EVERYTHING.

The sky has opened.
I feel no fear.
I close my eyes…
And let it tear.

The Evil In Me

A cry for release. Take Me Away blends gothic sorrow with crushing metal power; a track built on haunting riffs, thunderous drums, and vocals dripping with raw emotion.

This is the sound of despair turned into defiance: a voice rising from the shadows, begging for escape yet roaring with strength. The atmosphere is heavy, cinematic, and tragic, echoing like prayers lost among gravestones.

Lyrics:

I walk around
And all I see is evil
Angry, mad
And simply twisted people

I pantomime 
And pretend that I am one
Sick and sad
Like my wicked ways have come

I move around
And all I see are walking dead
Frozen, scared
It’s filled my heart with dread

Behind my eyes, there is another way
To bring the light of good to the day
To break the place where the wicked stay
Or if it does not work, take me away

I have no heart to give today
When it’s my soul that has to pay
I have nothing left to say
Take me away!
Please take me away!

I break away
Before the burning of the cross
Sick and sad
I can’t handle all this loss

I run away
Before the sickness gets inside
Fast and scared
Before the light inside me dies

Now I’m free
I left the evil well behind
Full of hope
For the nature of mankind

Behind my eyes, there is another way
To bring the light of good to the day
To break the place where the wicked stay
Or if it does not work, take me away

I have no heart to give today
When it’s my soul that has to pay
I have nothing left to say
Take me away!
Please take me away!

Take Me Away

No matter which side you are on this was messed up and we should be using words not bullets.

What Happened (RIP Charlie)

Lyrics:

"Six feet under? Nah, I ain’t departed.
Buckle up, my brothers; I’m just gettin’ started."

Grave dirt cracked, I rose in flame,
Carved my truth from a world of shame.
Hands still bleeding, boots still worn,
Been dead before, I’m just reborn.
Knuckles hit gravel, dust kicks high,
Grin full of trouble, fire in my eye.

Smoke in my lungs, mud on my hands,
Ain’t got much, but I still stand.

If the demons come calling to break my will,
I’ll put a foot up their ass, just for the thrill.
Six feet under, dirt on my face,
Still throwing punches in my resting place.

Told me “sit down,” but I stood my ground,
Kicked the door in when they came around.
Every scar’s a medal, every bruise a brand,
You ain’t alive till you learn to stand.
World tried to crush me, I bit back twice,
Carved my truth in blood and vice

Blood on my knuckles, grin on my jaw,
You can’t scare a man who’s seen it all.

If the demons come calling to break my will,
I’ll put a foot up their ass, just for the thrill.
Six feet under, dirt on my face,
Still throwing punches in my resting place.

Death carved my name into stone too soon,
I walked right out of that shallow tomb.
Tried to take my breath, I bit the rope,
Turned the gallows into a joke.
Cracked a grin, then laughed, “Not yet,”
“I ain’t cashed in all my debt.”

They dropped me low, said I’d rot and stay,
But I clawed right out...made the dirt obey.
Every scar I wear’s just proof I live,
Every shot they take just makes me give.

Ghost in the gears, crack in the chain,
Built in the smoke, baptized in pain.
They wrote me off ...I rewrote the book,
Now death steps back when I give that look.

Boots still stomp, jaw still set,
Ain’t met a grave that’s held me yet.
Tongue like brass, words like lead,
I spit 'til the silence bleeds instead.

I burn through fear, I laugh through hell,
Ain’t got a soul left to sell.
Six feet down, but I still fight,
Talk your talk ...I live that bite.

Grit in my teeth, pulse in my head,
Blood in my hands says I’m not dead.

If death comes calling to break my will,
I’ll put a foot up its ass, just for the thrill.
Six feet under, dirt on my face,
Still throwing punches in my resting place.

"Nope...this ain't my dying day motherfucker!"

Six Feet Under

“The Hidden Empire” is the moment the curtain finally falls.
The Seeker has seen through every illusion — the propaganda, the false gods, the architects of control — and now discovers the empire that has ruled unseen from the shadows.
It’s the truth behind civilization itself: a system built to harvest belief, obedience, and time.
This track marks the turning point of the album — the awakening becomes rebellion.
The world built on deception begins to fracture as light and noise collide.
Sonically, “The Hidden Empire” fuses Dream Theater’s grandeur with TesseracT’s precision, layering mechanical polyrhythms with orchestral and electronic textures.
It’s dark, powerful, and immersive — the sound of awakening within the machine.
🔥 Genre: Progressive Metal / Cinematic Djent
🎧 Theme: Revelation, Control, Rebellion, Truth
💿 From the concept album The Hidden Empire
“Welcome to The Hidden Empire —
The world beneath the world you see.”

The demon from hell

The Serpent’s Doctrine

A 26-track odyssey through sin, collapse, rebirth, empire, and war.

After a month-long hiatus, AxAxC returns with the most ambitious project in our history — a violent, emotional, and mythic exploration of the human condition.
This album is built on deathcore, nu-metal, liturgy-core, and Christian rock, fused with orchestral suites, Norse epics, spoken-word interludes, and cinematic war narration.

This is an album about burning down the version of yourself that’s killing you.
It opens in the trenches of addiction and internal collapse (“By Sin and Self-Destruction,” “My Demons,” “On My Own”), descends into despair and self-destruction (“I Tried to Be Free,” “Lose It All Again”), and hits its emotional breaking point in the ritualistic centerpiece Self-Immolation Ceremony.

From there, the album rises into myth — with Norse war-cries, celestial hauntings, phoenix-like rebirth, and dirges for doubt and fear.
Then, suddenly, the horizon shifts.
The personal becomes political.
And the final arc transforms into a historical epic — a prelude to AxAxC’s upcoming projects:
The Path of War and Democracy.

“The Rise of Evil” retells the beginning of WW2 as a warning.
“Support • Defend • Democracy” declares the album’s stance.
“Dulce et Decorum” channels war poetry into a modern metal requiem.

The final track, “Lento Bliss,” returns the listener to fragile humanity —
a reminder that after war, both inner and outer…
we still have to live.

This album is a journey.
A confession.
A requiem.
A resurrection.

This is Abolition with Self-Immolation.
Burn the old self.
Rise from the ash.

Lose it All Again

Firelight

Music is my therapy, its my release from past military trauma. Its never been about fame or fortune for me, just sharing some spark of hope in the world.  Been playing guitar and bass since I was a kid.  Gradually transitioned to learning keyboard and drums as well.  Started writing my own songs when I was 15.  I’ve written well over 1000 songs in my lifetime . I'm a fully functioning studio and work with various musicians worldwide. I enjoy working with all genres.  Im registered with ASCAP and hope and pray daily someone will buy my songs. Check out my website at rorydavidmusic.com. Soundcloud claims you can sell vinyls on here, I'm trying to sell 2.  I have ISRC numbers for every song yet they are making life a living hell, so I'll probably find a different site soon.
