Young and Destructive (Apr. 2012)
Sometime in 2009, They Dwell Beneath the Temples (TDBT) was birthed as an idea for a solo metal project. It soon evolved from a thought into a home studio.
Story behind the song
New Since April 2012!
Lyrics
"Young and Destructive"
Can we wake up from our sleep,
carry on, and continue to dream?
Why such a heavy heart?
It's only heavy when you choose to carry it all.
So shallow we are, but only victims of influence.
Is it possible to escape the narrowed hallways of surveillance?
to bring down the walls of the maze,
and burn them to the ground?
with great glory, all blood stained.
Our blood and lungs already so contaminated,
but our minds, our souls, our hearts, our voice
so animated,
so individual.
Let us take back the power,
let us claim what is ours.
We the people are what hold up the tower.
We the people are what hold up the pyramid structure.
Jab the eye with the spear,
chop it to pieces with kitchen knives,
devoured and digested,
then flooded again with the flowing water that keeps us alive,
gravity will turn the blind pyramid over
and spill out the knowledge which the eye has withheld from us,
the knowledge that dwells within us,
the knowledge that dwells within us.
