5th track from our debut full-length album.

(The Ages) 

When we were frail 
And we were lost in the haze 
Never imagined the path we'd walk 
We were cursed as rats 
Flesh ripped from bone to bone 
Desperate in the darkness 
Dead leaves in the wind 
Dripping with blood from every hole 
No tongue to speak of your diabolical deeds 
Woe burns deeply 
And woe, in your tomb I reside 
Naked and crippled in the perverted truth 
Awakening of summer sighs 
There is nothing for us in the world of man 
Withering away 
This fragile tall tale 
And we must SURRENDER 
Past, present, future 
When we woke from the horrors of yesterday 
Eyes open to dreams 
And all will be well 
Now growing older with the guidance of gods 
And the freedom of birds 
Our heads on high will REVEAL

Surrender

Wildernessking was established in May 2011 as a forward-thinking metal band. Starting out as a fun, black 'n roll project called Heathens in early 2010, the band morphed into a progressive force, encompassing many genres and styles on the way. Releasing their debut full-length album on Antithetic Records in February 2012, followed by a self-released EP in June 2012 and a couple of music videos, Wildernessking took the underground music scene by storm and to critical acclaim. Wildernessking did their first local tour in July 2013, playing in Johannesburg and Pretoria and they are the only African band featured on the Elemental Nightmares vinyl project, consisting of 28 bands and 7 10" split albums to be released over the course of 2014. Wildernessking digitally released The Devil Within in January 2014, with the physical release slated for March 2014 in all formats (CD, cassette, vinyl). Now playing a hybrid of black metal, rock and ambient music, the group is set to release a slew of new recordings in 2014. The band will also release a collaborative split album with The Great Old Ones (FRA) and a new full-length in 2014.
