Epic Progressive Metal
This band is my solo project; still trying to find a gigging metal band. Everything, from death grunts to power vocals to guitar and drums is performed and overdubbed by me (drums are from my piano). Please comment me, either here or my member's page!

Story behind the song
A ballad about being jaded from too much sex, in the tradition of "Wasting Love" by Maiden or "Tenderness" by Steppenwolf.
Lyrics
She heaves a sultry sigh Jaded and forlorn Yet another restless night The still air mourns Nestled in her body Await the solace For a new sutra I know will never come Gleaming gold and swarthy I have traveled far Now a torrid memory Innocence is marred Opiate, desperate release Mocking cold warmth Drank too deep, joy's fleeting Ever so mundane. Lost in the contours of her body With absent practiced strokes My mind's swirling empty And all pleasure forsook Already a new white lie looms Chivalrous facade, a path so often trod The thrill of the hunt expired long ago A glint in her eye tells me exactly what will come. CHORUS The folds welcome me To another petty game My own nirvana Now jumbled and the same Tangle of limbs flits in my mind Bliss never nearing an end Spited at every turn, every promise empty A cruel mirror for what I divvied to them CHORUS You give what you take You take what you give But in the end it adds up to naught (x4)
