There is truth and there are lies Outside of that is noise626 Forever pushing the boundaries of ambient gothic art rock. Music from the Other Side

noise626 is a tour de force in electronic/ambient/progressive rock unlike anything you may have heard. And in this era of cookie cutter bands putting out cookie cutter music, it's a wonder to see sounds influenced by the progressive rock of the past and the electronic based music of the present. Together, it represents a new era of rock music. And it's music to your ears. Firstly, much love, blessings and thanks for all the hard work, sleepless nights, and unending support to Joshywa and Pharoahmoan Productions! You have no idea how much you make my day brighter! Front page photo by the amazing noise626 music can be purchased at the following online stores: CD Baby is my mainline for our CDs :) But wait! That's not all! You can also purchase individual tracks from these fine folks: and, of course, right here on Soundclick! Thank you kindly for listening... Stay strong! pax ant

Story behind the song

Watching too much 24 hour cable news, hearing the words of too many who are phony tough and brave when out of range, and of seeing the coffins of too many kids.

Lyrics

I see shadows spread across blank faces
I see doubt in their eyes
Blind to the reasons why
The way things must be

Clouds on the horizon
Bring storms to the gates

As we raise our lances
Against the armies of fate

We do our duty
Until the last
We unfurl our banners
For our hallowed land

Take our lives
Spill our blood

The orders given
From the rear
The lost and hungry
Will defend
The mighty
Who cannot defend themselves?
It would seem

Have you seen my friends?
The ones who cried for you?

Have you laid your wreathes
Of guilt and shame
Amongst the graves of young men
Poor men
Dead men

Is the pin on your lapel?
The extent of your sacrifice?
He said “Better their blood than mine”

Have you seen my friends
The ones who bled for you?

Have you find the truth in the wasteland
Of 24 hour television?

Did the embeds show you pictures?
And did the flag draped coffins
Offend your hard fought ignorance?

Have you seen my friends?
The ones who died for you?

Did they complain too loud?
And did they wonder in your hearts if the words were true?
Were they in the wrong tax bracket?
And will you look them in the eye
When they ask you
Where were you?
