And I'm about halfway done with this one Musically and lyrically. Opinions on the lyrics?


Storm the gates of the Heavens!
Drain out their lives,
Revoke, their divinity,
And destroy their thrones on which they claim to stand above thee.

Envision reverse psychology, the slave becomes the God.
God becomes the slave,
Whip that bastard God, make it beg, make it plead.
For it was never a true God, it was a mere phantom of true power.

Rise!
Rise above the hopeless faith.
Deny!
Deny their preaching of deceiving speech.
Annihilate!
Annihilate those that claim they can save.

For there is no saving in a faithless world.
Faithless world....
No God to grant eternal life.
Only contamination to rot the rest of it away.



That's it so far. Still working on it. Opinions?

    It seems to follow the regular bible thumping lyrics which metal has a lot of
    i don't think I want my band to talk about that cuz a lot of bands have already said it, why repeat what people have already said?

    I'm getting sick of the same lyrics in songs lately.


  • SantanaSantana Posts: 16,743 juggalo
    The reason I don't like it is, I like songs that have a lot of meaning to them and the same lyrics over and over loses it's meaning

    It seems like it's over the top satanic, and then just "no god!!" And reverse psychology isn't the term you're looking for, maybe role reversal?

    Ah, we're back to misanthropic/antitheist based lyrics. Write something that makes people think.

    Can you tell Erik likes metalcore? Lol...it's either these kind of lyrics or whiny Howard-era KSE lyrics.

    If you can explain to me what each line means to you, then I may let it slide, Erik.

    you should play with lyrics in which the first word of each sentence forms words (out of each Stanza or whatever) like:


    Silent watching gaze
    Across the blackened plains
    Two eyes like burning embers
    Awaits the moment for the
    North star to blaze

    Sythanagon winged
    Angel rides deaths wind
    To cloudless sky
    And sound a summon call of war
    Now burn does the skyline

    Soundless wings lacerate the night
    Angels of death emerge accross the sky
    Thorned heads spiky limbs climb the air up high
    Attack of the pearly gates
    Now wait for the sign...

    Seen now is His star
    Ablaze now risen in
    The sign of the one with
    A numbeer not a name
    Now given is the sign

    The Golden walls of heaven

    Sound is given now of charge
    A voice of war does cry
    The cry does sound the signal
    And the walls are stormed
    Now fly

    Swords are drawn in soundless flight
    Above the walls of gold
    The winged angels of death descend
    A thousand from above
    Now heaven is in its' last throes of death

    Sacred shrine of life and death
    Apharamons gold key
    The raping of holy interior
    And all concealed
    Now masturbated upon is throne of gold

    Scattered battered wings
    Along the palaces and streets
    Trophy of the victory
    Attached to spear of the Beast
    Now spitted at is the scalp of God.

    Metalcore Jake? It's a Death Metal song....

    And nah all of my songs have been anti-religious, hate, misanthropy, etc. I will admit one of them was "whiny" but that was my first song I ever wrote and it was Metalcore. I have recordings of all these songs, but they're recorded with a Rock Band microphone and the Audacity program, and it's so low quality that it makes the old school Black Metal look absolutely perfect.

    Actually, Gulch got to hear one of my songs, Self Genocide, and he said it was actually pretty good but the Guitar work was bad, which I already knew, I'm shit at Guitar, but I had to work with the little Guitar skill I had. He loved the Drums though.
  • TheDevilsDreadsTheDevilsDreads Posts: 1,625 just the tip
    idno no offence Erik but the Death Metal horse has been beat beyond death for the lsat 20 years or so. i think its time for a new subject or a genre change, no matter how much you hate god, we've heard it a thousand times. if youre trying to get into music and being a musician then originality is the key. songs about how much you hate god and much of a disease people are...not original, not by far. i'll post one of my newer songs. i went from writing the same kinda angry teenager lyrics and have moved to far greater topics, so should you.

    THIS IS NOT YOUR REALITY


    And your lyrics kinda blow. Sounds like something a Deathcore band would use...not Death metal <_>

    oh right right i forgot to post em XD

    this is my lastest song, its called Divided, We Stand.

    If here, divided we must stand
    To strike once and for all
    Against those who would keep us silent and
    Those who would hold hostage our free thought

    Then here, united we shall fall
    Together as one, with hope inside our minds
    Our free minds, to see a day of freedom
    Forever in generations to come

    The gallows have been readied
    With pale face, delivering a clear message
    "Lead the youth astray"
    Our hands are steadied, not ready to be afraid
    Never again shall a calm visage be falsely portrayed
    In the name of peace and tranquility

    Rise through awareness, never to fall in blindness
    Ignorance erodes the foundations of knowledge
    Seeing God in the fog left by disinformation
    Hatred is the name of our monstrosity
    Despair the weapon, rending us from innovation

    Slander everything that was upheld
    As it is our rights, our potential that has been felled
    Thus bred is a world that frowns upon intellect
    To which, we, the dreamers, free-thinkers, and scholars
    Are awarded no respect
    In a word, neglect
    When every aspect of life is handed to them by our design

    This is a war of information, a battle for knowledge
    Live no longer on the edge
    distasteful world for the taking
    No more faking, your lies are painstaking

    This is where the line has been drawn
    The last chance to correct the wrongs
    This is where the line has to be drawn
    Do not mistake our urgency
    An era of true regency

    If here, divided we must stand
    To strike once and for all
    Then here, united we shall fall
    Together as one, with hope inside our hearts
