REMIXED - REMASTERED

Love song... of sorts

Lyrics:

"What happened to us
Where's the trust?

Now... Now we only argue and fight

I... I'm sorry
I never wanted this for us
I never wanted this"

I am buried in your heart, where your hate tears me apart
I can hardly breathe, you drain this life away from me

Take a piece of me, I take a piece of you
It's your time to pay, this void is so inhumane

Take a piece of me, I take a piece of you
Tear me apart and I tear you

Take a piece of me, I take a piece of you
... and bury us into nothingness

Bury me into nothingness

Bury Me Into Nothingness - REMASTERED - Lyrics

REMIXED - REMASTERED 

This war-ridden world that we live in... 

"May the ones rest in peace who had to suffer the madness of a few."

 Ending the crisis / famine / war in Gaza upmost importance.

Lyrics:

“when stillness comes
nothing else remains
NOTHING REMAINS
just pain..."

bombs hit the land day by day
this is our life in a shallow grave
run for shelter, there is none (none)
this is your life, undone
run for cover, there is none (none)

anger, frustration feeds our needs
preventing us being human beings
run for shelter, there is none (none)
this is your life, undone
run for cover, there is none (none)

this dust will blow us away
this dust will make us stay
sand of time will keep us here
in this land we obey and fear
sand of time will keep us here
in this land that only brings us death and tears

when hate breeds hate only darkness knows... its way
when hate breeds hate only darkness prevails
when hate breeds hate... sorrow... will... know... its... play...

The raging wars serve as a catalyst for the lyrics in most of the existing and upcoming songs. 

The human suffering is beyond belief, it needs to END now, War Metal as I see it - is to write lyrics about war's insanity and not to forget those who died.

These themes are part of the dark layers of life. 

TAPATORA name has multiple meanings. An ancient name for a male that was mainly used in Finland. It is also a name of an island near Tampere and if you translate the name in English, it means kill the quarrel / dispute / wrangle.

Bury Me into Nothingnesssss... Lyrics - Remixed - Downtuned

War metal ... May those rest in peace who had to suffer the madness of a few

Lyrics

There is no life awaiting us here
only death that lurks so near

You refuse, you must resist
but you have to find a way to exist

From the depths of hell they shall arrive
so don't you look behind

From the depths of hell they shall arrive
so don't you look behind

They come, they come
They are the violent ones...

You run You hide the F**kers will arrive
You run You hide, there is no time to cry

So kill yourself, NO Kill them all
That's the only way forward

So kill yourself, NO Kill them all
That's the way forward

Kill or be killed
Kill or be killed

So you see the violence, violence within, when everyman is ready, ready to give in

So you see the violence, violence within, when everyman is ready, ready to give in

From the depths of hell they shall arrive
so don't you look behind

From the depths of hell they shall arrive
so don't you look behind

They come, they come
They are the violent ones...

So kill yourself, NO Kill them all
That's the only way forward

So kill yourself, NO Kill them all
That's the only way forward

That's the only way to stay
That's the only way we pray
That's the only way there is for us to remain

The raging wars serve as a catalyst for the lyrics in most of the existing and upcoming songs. It seems that killing each other is the only way forward as written in the lyrics. 

The human suffering is beyond belief, it needs to END now, War Metal as I see it is to write lyrics about war's insanity and not to forget those who died.

These are some of the dark layers of life. Most of the lyrics will touch this theme or solely discuss it.

The Violent Ones ( Downtuned )

The Violent Ones - Downtuned - Lyrics

The Violent Ones v2 ( WAR METAL ) - Lyrics

This is a short preview of a song I have been working with years. I was never sure which way to go with it after the intro... Today, fast seemed to be the way.

#preview #demo #guitaronly

Frontline

Frontline - RAW DEMO - A Short PREVIEW - guitar only

This one was made 2020 - found it on the g-drive. Had forgotten it ... but, this is just feeling the guitar, nothing else - pure free flow of metal guitar tone through the veins. And I love 1980s thrash metal guitar sound - just listened Nuclear Assault - Trail of Tears - that guitar tone, damn. Hopefully, I will find it .. one day !..!

The Dark of Man

Dark of Man - 2 guitars mainly - early demo (2020) - Remastered 30.3.2025  (Aurora)

An acoustic spin off track from the upcoming thrash metal track - The Dark of Man

This is a love song of sorts - only one I will ever do -- Lyrics below. 

Update: added a bass track 30.6

Ro… roaming empty corners of my mind
without sign of guiding light … oh baby
What’s the purpose… the purpose of it all
when everything built… has to fall

This was to last beyond the time
with the strongest keel holding it tight
… oh baby
What’s the purpose… the purpose of it all
when everything built has to fall

The endless time pushing me down
Who am I to resist, just loosing my ground 
… oh baby
What’s the purpose… the purpose of it all
when everything built… has to fall

My redemption starts tonight, only sinister thoughts
stay by my side - no, no, not looking for harm, the fear of end 
will keep me calm

Did our evolution run its course – Is it now the time for different force...?
Will I return to life left behind...
I’d still rather find you by my side, by my side, by my side … .. .

"I have crossed oceans of time to find you" by Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Purpose of it all

Purpose of it all ( acoustic guitar ... and a touch of bass and distortion ) - Lyrics

( Vocal update 13.7 ) 

Vocals: a mix of clean and (silent) metal -trying to get the two different styles closer to one another

ORIGINAL metal version:
https://soundcloud.com/tapatorametal/v2-bury-me-into-nothingnesssss

Lyrics:

I am buried in your heart, where your hate tears me apart.
I can hardly breathe, you drain this life away from me.
You drain this life, away from me
You drain this life, away from me
You drain this life, away from me

So take a piece of me
and I wil take… a piece of you
So take… a piece of me
and I wil take… 
a piece of you
So take… a piece of me
and I wil take… a piece of you
So I will take…

Have not been playing the guitar for more than couple of hours the past 4 months - too many reasons to open up here, but this one came through as a force of nature a few days ago.

There are some metal songs that are waiting to come out, the WAR trilogy needs to be completed.

RE-IMAGINED - Bury me into nothingness

REIMAGINED - Bury me into nothingness ( experimental ) - Lyrics

A song idea in Finnish language - a short demo - summer vibes but not really - Lyrics below: both FI / EN

Sound of rain - my tears for OZZY ... even though he said... No More Tears - RIP.

"Katson ulos, kaikki kaunista, sisälläni tyhjyys harmaana.
En tiedä mistä minne meen, meen sinne minne tie vieneen
On mulla vain hetki tää, ei muuta mitään ihmeempää...

Katson ulos, kaikki kaunista, sisälläni tyhjyys harmaana.
En tiedä mistä minne meen, meen sinne minne tie vieneen
On mulla vain hetki tää, ei muuta mitään ihmeempää..."

Translation of Lyrics

"I look outside, everything is beautiful, inside me only grey emptiness. I don't know where I'm going, I'm going where the road takes me. I only have this moment, nothing else to build on.

I look outside, everything is beautiful, inside me only grey emptiness. I don't know where I'm going, I'm going where the road takes me. I only have this moment, nothing else to build on"

vain hetki tää

vain hetki tää - only this moment ( electro-acoustic, bass and vocals ) short demo - Lyrics FI / EN

A spinoff track from the upcoming metal track - Sky is Bleeding. Just had time in my hands today and decided to give it a go - acoustic guitar - effects - easy listening - somewhat heavy lyrics. 

Mastered 12.9.2025

Lyrics:

I watch the sky, sky is bleeding
My love remains -  intact and easy 
There was the time when we were dreaming
But then the sky - kept bleeding 
My love became uneasy 
Love was to remain free with feelin… 
But life became,  uneasy 
Wherever it leads -  so uneasy 

I think we will rotate the intro to the metal track - no distortion this time :)

REIMAGINED - Sky is Bleeding  ( acoustic guitar ) - Lyrics

A long story short - Mother died, long-term sickness (years ago) - made this song immediately after her passing.

Had lost the original files, now – found one decent sounding instrumental file and combined that with isolated vocal track, timing was different - so had to work on that a bit.

This is our second song... made 2020. 

Mastered using SoundCloud - Aurora.

LYRICS

when this life takes its toll,
you find yourself all alone
now you fight, the fight of your life
now you fight, it’s your time
your time, your time… your time…
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades
yesterday is the past – only memories remain
yesterday is the past – only memories remain
burden that you carried brings the pain
burden that you carried brings the pain
burden that you carried brings the pain
why, why, why
WHY……………..
time after time,
fear after fear,
fight after fight
we leave our goodbyes
time after time,
fear after fear,
fight after fight,
pain that was yours,
now its mine
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades
until it breaks, until it takes, until it fades…. I stay

Until it fades

Until it Fades - rerelease (2020) - Lyrics

Vocals updated 26.11 in this remake - a personal monologue if you will...

( original got 100+ likes and majority of those likes did not even listen to the song -  so I deleted it ... but those who did listen - please give it a go again - cheers 🤘)

Lyrics:

In the dead of night I wonder
I wonder what was right
in the dead of night
I wonder … ...

To helllll with it all

I watch the sky, sky is bleeding, just bleeding…
My love remains - intact and easy – so easy
There was the time when we were dreaming
just dreaming, but then the sky kept bleeding, just bleeding
My love became - uneasy – so uneasy
Love was to remain free with feelin… true feeling
But life became - uneasy – so uneasy
Where it leads - is to be seen – to be seen
Where it leads me - so uneasy – so uneasy

To hellll … with it all

Disaster ... after … every … fakinn … fall

In Gaza / Ukraine / Russia and the rest of the conflicted world, people die - day in day out, we as a human race could care a bit more.
