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!

Lyrics
Oh where has it gone? My withering soul. Life evading me, all joys are in the past. Distanced and cold, been dealt a cruel blow Palette's turning gray, consuming all too fast. CHORUS Gazing languidly For bliss buried deep The past has claimed them all Laments of yesteryear One woe wheels to the next, they're consuming me They flit and pervade through my wearying mind. Warmth of love, flesh, all good things, you see All gone, placation, I must seek to find. Foremost in my mind was that horrid day Pages are peeling away, one by one Wilted flowers, falling rain, her love now stained Engulf the sky and the dreary sun. REPEAT CHORUS My eyes falter On what lays before me Alien countenance Cold and distant Lonely sentry Of plodding time Life whisks by Hope flickers (But ever so dimly) All the joys of the world flare up and die Turned to dust in the harrowing wake "Look to the past," I hear now and nigh But I feel they have littler at stake. This vanity breaks me out of reverie I pray I'll reclaim my fractured former lives REPEAT CHORUS
