This was more like a 30 minute compo cuz I got home late from my shit --- nice to do one again though.

Lyrics:

To dust I return

Not sure what lesson's I learned

I know I was just another atom

of a mineral in a ring of saturn

But this is for the best

The afterlife beckons me in my dreams

The rest of you are never what they seem

So here I am crumbling to dust

Finally free of a world unjust

Reborn to this hollow world

Dripping black with all the oil

I wish for a different scene

From all the pain I see

Whisked away by the wind

So I'm no longer pinned

Just leave me be

Well... my voice is worn out isn't it? XD Some of the good moments are where I Felt I could put balls behind it. MEEEEH. I was doing some recording with metal earlier so eh. But hey! Not bad otherwise.

Life sucks and but you're still here
and you know that time's ticking away
Everything will end and they all fear
But don't go and give up, I say
Carpe Diem and all that rot
Whatever the romans said
Don't look back, it'll hurt a lot
Live your life instead x2

*
Live your life, like its your last
Don't worry about your past
What would you do, if it's the end tomorrow
Live your life, and make it last
Otherwise it goes by too fast
So think of this as your last day

It seems tempting to put it off
Procrastinate your duties
Until the last minute on the clock
Stress laughs at ya haughty
Don't worry about what ya did
Just try to improve
The future is just one big bid
So just find yer groove x2

*

Everyone feels the same way
Don't put up walls around your heart
Don't worry about where you start
Just be proud of yourself today
Move forward, just move forward
Don't let your soul be crushed
Don't let your song be hushed
Just carry onward

C'mon kid don't you know who you are facing
I'm a understated fighter in unassming casing
I've got more heat than anyone can muster
Anyone who comes at me will find a cluster
FUCK everyone and anyone who steps up to me
Who thinks they can fight the might they can't see
Get over yourself kid, you're never gonna win
I've had way more time and a whole host of sins

Is this so hard to understand
You're facing more than a man

I'm larger than life
Taste your blood tonight
No chance for you kid
Let me shut your lid
I'm larger than life
Taste your blood tonight
You best get away before I make you

Underestimate me, don't even try to flee
You got caught red-handed and up against a tree
This fight tonight wi ll show your right to lose
So next time maybe you'll think before you choose
This is a simple message, I hope you take to heart
Make sure you're a man before you go and start
To talk a lot of shit and a lot of it is nothing
NO NOTHING

Is this so hard to understand
You're facing more than a man

I'm larger than life
Taste your blood tonight
No chance for you kid
Let me shut your lid
I'm larger than life
Taste your blood tonight
You best get away before I make you

I'm lazy and boring

Revolutionize
It will be televised
Understand my mind
And don't be suprised
When they won't compromise...

Sometimes you gotta fight
Hide your children in the night
Matyrs die for what's right
Don't be suprised by the sight

Gather round, come togther
Break away these bonds and tethers
Come be one and show them all
That the bigger they are the harder they fall

Payoffs are bigger
the disease is sicker
Distort all the figures
Lying a fixture

Don't just ignore me
Don't just go blindly
I know it's all foolish
BUT DON'T LET THEM DO THIS

What's true?
No one knows
Certainly not me
That just goes to show
How messed up this fucking world is...

REVOLUTIONIZE

I dunno, I had fancy schmancy effects I want to use.

Hip hop beats on Bass guitar anyone?

(All sounds made on my Ernie Ball OLP Bass sent through a Danelectro Chili Dog, Korg Ampworks and a BBE CRUSHER)

*shrug*

It sounds pretty, I wish I didn't feel like crap, there could be vocals, there could be drums, bass!!! oh well I still have guitar

I like eat cheez-its when I'm relaxed
I like eat cheez-its when I'm relaxed
They make me feel so good
So good baby
That I want to share them with you

Sharing my cheez-its with you
Sharing my cheez-its with you

Time is my enemy
It works against me
Always too slow
Always too fast
If I went the speed of light
Would it set things right
Give me more time
To do the task

Violent imagery
Plauging all my dreams
Keeps me awake
Making me drink
If I bettered my state of mind
Would it make it more kind
Give me a chance
And let me think

Subspace
Come to me
Give me some grace
Subspace
Come to me
Take me away from this place

I saw the reaper
When he came to meet her
It broke me in two
Broke me in two
She's never coming back
I can't handle that
Please come to me
Please take me too

So much in this life
Is unattainable
Is it so much to ask
For stability
So much in this life
Is unreachable
Is it so much to ask
For reality
to bend to its knees

Subspace
Come to me
Give me some grace
Subspace
Come to me
Take me away from this place

erg.

Take a leap and find your fate
You should live before its too late
Feel the rush, and feel air flow
Around your eyes and ears as you go

Don't look down
Until you land

Dive right in, don't mind the pain
it just means that you're still sane
Feel the pressure, feel the glow
Around your entire body as you go

Don't look down...

When you look back at your life
Will you find yourself satisfied
Don't be scared, just beware
There's no way back, once your there

Don't look down

A bit of an experiment. taht AT2020 doesn't sound as good on its own. :P

Ugh.

Enjoy!

One take. One cool. :3

Help by Brian Spackle and Pete.

A long time ago the world was bright
There was sun to give things life
But then that day came when it hit
The skies went black and that was it..

No one knew... no one saw,
It came from afar and took us all
The people going on their daily lives
The people who always look at the skies
LAUGHED at they were by other men
Politicians with advisers living in sin
Retribution was coming and no one knew
The end of all the lives...

it fell... it fell... it felll on us
blackout blackout the world
x2

Now that all the life has gone
Except for those who're underground
The people listen to their fears
there's no light for their mirror

It fell it fell...

Arrrgghhhhhhh. Well, see, if I wasn't such a prat and wrote something decently complex, I would have completed this on time.

I'll save ideas like this for 2 hours JHCs.

Lyrics:
The thigns that I've known
Have been gone for so long
And I wish I knew why
We all had to die

TIME'S SANDS

Chorus:
All the things that I've gone past
Nothing in this life lasts
Even though everything is strange
I know that everything must change

The one's that I've lost
Are still in this heart
But how long until I miss
The memory of my first kiss...

Change... Change... Change... Change...

Seriously, if I saw half of what heroes see I would have issues too.

Not to mention that they'd have demonic screaming backing them.

Similarly, the end is the stage of the nightmare where you desperately want to wake up.

Bugs are crawling on my skin...
Under my skin
Under my bones
Under my muscles

Ripping me apart x3

I can feel them, laying their eggs.
I have become their home.

Bugs... under myskin
under my bones
under my heart...
under my muscles
under me
underneath me

Bugs are killing

Save me...

I'd totally have classicalish chiptunish stuff as my campaign backing music.

Right?

Course I hate politics... I hope I got that across in this tune.

This is bassed on a dream I had.

I went with my girlfriend to a wedding of people I didn't know. And for some reason the groom played bass.

And he challenged me to a bass duel.

I won. ;)

This sucks I couldn't think of anything good, I probably should have just done metal.

>-

Came in late, but still took an hour.
My cousin helped with the lyrics.
:D

Tick, Tock, Ting, Tang
Time has no tempo in this thing...
No one to be seen
No one to be heard
Except for the mechanical bleeps & blurbs.

"Some one help me" I shouted out.
A voice replies "do not pout"
"Althought there is no 'out'"

Behold in front of me a screen wheeled
On it the face of a girl
"Your in my labyrinth, a potential iron maiden
You have six hours before you die."

The screen dicks off and then came a shake
All around me I could feel the place wake.
First the flash of lights
Then the doors
After that a series of roars
Abominations of all shapes and sizes
They cascaded over the steel horizons/

"GAME ON" I thought in my head
It's either get out of this or get dead

"Let's play you bitch" I shouted with glee
5 hours and fifty minutes till I'm free

One way or another.

One way..

*improv*

I have company, but I had an idea for a frantic electro-metal thing.

This is the proto form of it. Most of what i heard in my head is there.

It was easy cuz, I could play anything I wanted and it'd still be nasty.

Perfection no?

Also, Dyne, SHORTEN YOUR DAMN INTROS. I thoguht the theme was red alert. Oh well, this is how the trip would feel in my none air conditioned car.

If I got off my butt and worked on this more I probably could have finished it, but I have a wedding away from my studio to go to and my Saturday night is filled up too. Alas.

Regardless of that, I hope your friend Demi enjoys this even though I sorta turned the style on its heels a little. (a lot)

Okay, so A cappella metal takes a bit to record apparently. Good thing I made the song long. Out of tune in a bunch of places.... but that solo in the beginning is pretty sweet... It pretty much falls apart after that though.

Lyrics:

inside my life I've found it hard
To fight against the need
The primal desire to be one
With you and then be done

So I inside i must face the beast
To make this desire cease

Facing the beast

Arcana's interpretation of this theme: You're unsure of yourself. You don't know what's going on! What decisions can you make? Today's theme is: TO BE DETERMINED."

Arcana, you are to blame for this. Feel happy. :D

Lyrics:
Taught to follow
That's far to shallow
Choose instead
Don't just be led

Living alone, full of rage
You made your own cage
Only you hold the key
Set yourself free!

Your life,
Is to be determined by
Your life
Is what you make it to be

Don't get caught
In their pointless plot
Lift your finger to help
And you'll find yourself

Your life,
Is to be determined by
Your life
Is what you make it to be

To determined by you
It's to be determined only by you x3

Your life,
Is to be determined by
Your life
Is what you make it to be

Skynet took over.

We're all fucked.

Done in 35 minutes cuz I'm cool.

This is what you'd hear running through my mind as I'm leaving to go on a fishing trip.

Vaguely inspired by O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Evil Library.

Like in FF5, only more evil and less ancient.

Restricted Section? Yes.

Could be used in a video game, loops after first iteration.

My voice gave out at the end. Woooo. Out of tune, but whatever. I know "If you're numb than why do you feel the emotion of sadness" to hell with you. This is emotional shit.

Just another day I have nothing say
I looked in the mirror and saw no tears
I no longer feel the pain
Cold blood is coursing through my veins
Though I can see you're near
I can't feel you dear

I've become numb

What has been done to me
Why can't I feel, is this the fee?
I just wanted... comfort
I just broke the glass, why doesn't it hurt?

I've become numb
I've become numb...
I can't feel...
Why can't I feel...

I just want to feel.

I've become numb
I've become numb...
I've become numb
I don't want to feel if life made me numb

Why, why... am I so numb?

Rougher production, better song writing.

I look at the sky
I see the sun shine
Through the clouds
Beautifully hitting the ground

So I wonder is there a heaven
A place where wonders like this grow
I believe there must be a heaven
A place where divine winds blow...

I picture your face
Radiant, full of grace
I hold this love for you
What should I do?

So I wonder is there a heaven
A place where wonders like you grow
I believe you come from heaven
The place where divine winds blow

Does God live up beyond the stars
Or does he live between all the cars
No one knows, but I know this
You give me bliss

So I wonder is there a heaven
A place where wonders like you grow
I believe you come from heaven
The place where divine winds blow

Does God live up beyond the stars
Or does he live between all the cars
No one knows, but I know this
You give me bliss

It was raining... the day wouldn't have been half as bad if it weren't for that damn rain.
My car was smashed, I had a rash and my rent was long past due. I had a job but it was gone, and unemployment was too...

And so I gazed at the sky, asking the child's question "why?" As the cars went by, the wind whipped hard and I wondered why I was falling behind...

But then, I realized the truth. The rain was steadily falling too.

Re-Uploaded becuase of douchebag DAW.

The world ends...

Failed by the ones who control we give
Destroy everything so that we can live.
Fuck them all fuck their lies.
And give in to the cries...
Don't you know that its all their fault
We're kept in the dark while they assault
The world we live in and perspire
While they sit and conspire...

Chorus:
Cataphoric failure...

No apologies...
No giving up
Just keep going...

Everyone thinks they know what's wrong
But fuck if they even understand this song
Everything is given to use and we pay...
While they keep everything in grey
The world is decaying in our view
Don't you think that that's our cue?
Please don't let this world be our demise
We only have one chance to keep the prize...

Chorus

Why must me fail...
Why are we so damn blind? x2

Why?

Chorus

It starts out in the setting described in the theme.

"It's nightfall in the deep, black forest. The moon is high, and the fog is rolling in. In the distance, only a single sound can be heard... the cry of the wolf..."

Then, the wolf suddenly begins to run, the scenery racing past as it runs to get to get revenge on those who slaughtered his pack.

It ends with the same image as the beginning, but now, a dying, bloody wolf lays at the edge of an encampment... the camp of the ones that murdered him and his pack.

Street sweeping is awesome when no one is looking.

I have no idea. I spent too much time on the drums again. I probably could have done better vocally but I only had time for 2 takes. MEEEEEEEEEESSSSYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!


Alchemy!!!!!!!!

I am an alchemist
Making dreams come true
With a bubble and a brew
Me you will enlist

For you know
I will give

I am an alchemist
Giving life to the dead
I am the ultimate
Power in a man...

Do you see now all my power
Climb up my tallest tower
I have surpassed mortal men
SO LET THE ALCHEMIST GAMES BEGIN!!!!

I am an alchemist...

umm... not exactly what I wanted, I should have gone with orchestral. Oh well, no percussion, just guitar bass and vox.

I was but a young boy
Playing with my friends and toys
And in my youth I thought I knew
How the world worked through...
But then they came to take all I had...
I was forced to learn how to live...
in the spirit of the sword!

Everyday thereafter... and everytime
I held a magnificient blade in my hand.. I knew
I knew I could take on the world
As long as I had a blade in my hand

Some fight with pens, some fight with words
But I prefer to show my blade and save the day...

Grown now, I hold proud
I hear the screaming of the crowd
As I come to the square
They know who I am

Becuase i live in the spirit of the sword

Shine in light...

Just a mannequin dressed in the latest fasion
Not a care for nothin' just watchin the hustlin'
All the little ladies and the babies lookin'
To show them what threadz all be cookin'
Sittin' in the mall, see the cops on call
Playin' ball with the Bawls that make them fall
And when all the boys want the latest toys
They come lookin' at me cuz my threadz bring the noise

I'm a mannequin...

Don't play games and don't hang your head in shame
I saw you through the frame just lookin' at my fame
Foam is my skin and plastic is my blood
And I don't put on pudge from eatin' too much fudge
But look at it this way, if you want some BK
Then forget lookin' hot 'cause you're not
And you'll never... ever... have what I got

Cuz I'm a mannequin

I'm the guy who makes the ladies go WOOO
I'm the guy who makes the babies go GOOO
I'm the guy who makes the boys cry
When they see they can't be me fool
Don't you know I am a Mannequin

Uh... Uh... Uh.. Uh.... I'm mannequin

Cuz rapping over funk is always cool.

Obligations gone
Its time to party
I think these are the days
We'll be lyin' under the sun...
Under the sun.

Everyone's happy
and you know we're livin
And then someone finally says...
It's time for us to have fun
Time for fun..

Chorus
Then you know its vacation
Then you know its vacation!


Lyin' on the beach
Just gettin' a tan
Not a care in the world
For now

We're not thinkin of the end
Just having a good time
Don't think about tomorrow
Just have fun...

Summer or winter it don't matter
We'll just have a ball
Don't tell me about the future!!

Obligations gone
Its time to party
I think these are the days
We're lyin' under the sun

Everyone's happy
and you know we're livin
And then someone finally says...
Time for fun..

Erm, I had trouble thinking up something.

There's sax!

Vocals are improvised.

No lyrics this time! : ) :) : )

This is fail. Please vote ;)

Imagine this at the background of Robo bar.

Playing poker.

Erm. Damn this theme kicked my ass! :) Shows I have a lot to learn.

Not my tightest performance

War, standin' beside ya with a knife in my hand
Ready to slit your throat despite the killing ban
Though it may make it hard for me to sleep tonight
I'll destroy you and your nation for your crimes

War, in space or with a fee, destroying despite the pleas
of the nations that want peace but don't hold the keys
for the political reign that lives in the future-present
is not without its faults, its corruption so efficient

War you motherfuckers, what you gonna do?
War is everyday becuase people got no clue
War brings the death of billions before their time
But war is how we get to the peace in our climb...

Given all this information we are still in elation living out our days in our space-bound homes. But then some of us have the stones to condone what is clearly wrong and then we find out how our earth was blown...
I know that this seems overly dramatic, but I'm just making observations from my attic about the state of the world of the future that we live in and how everyone thinks its okay to go on livin'

Without a care in their given minds..

War you motherfuckers, what you gonna do?
War is everyday becuase people got no clue
War brings the death of billions before their time
But war is how we get to the peace in our climb...

Technically post apocalyptic... buttt..... *shrug*

What has happened here? Has hell come to us?
Has everyone been burned and killed and turned into dust?
I rather die than live in this world
That I don't know anymore

Waterless
Lifeless
Hopeless

Chorus:
But I saw your eyes
They burned hotter than the sky
You gave me the will
Through the end of the world
And I heard the cries
Of the people as they died
They gave me hope
Through the end of the world

With you by my side. I carry on in spite.
Of the nuclear winter and the endless night.
I rather live than die in this world
That I don't know anymore

Waterless
Lifeless
Desperate.

Chorus

THE END OF THE WORLD! (x6)

I want to break.

You gave me hope: through the end of the world (x3)

Reuploaded becuase I have to label things better...
AHEM
INDUSTRIAL!!!!!!!

Lyrics:
industry is booming
and in this dream we die
indstry is looming
and in this dream we lie
industry is moving
and in this dream we cry
and industry has us in its control
and we can't tell we're doing...

Industrially...
Industrious...
Ludicrous
Full of us.

You find yourself alone...

*laughter*

Factories are feeding
and in these teams we die
factories are greedy
and in these teams we lie
Factories are booming
and in this dream we cry
and factories have us in control
and we can't tell what we're doing

Industrially...
Industrious...
Ludicrous
Full of us.

*laughter*

Killer's stare.

Brief struggle.

End with another.

I promise.

All sounds are vocals.

You know my girl is great
You know my girl is great
But you know what I hate?
You know my girl is great
She takes my stuff and I say...
You're a really good thief baby

Everything I've been through with her
Everything I've been through with her
She takes it out on me...
And even with the good times in thar
She takes my stuff and I say
You're a really good thief baby

Blues.

This is about me being badass. Because I seem to be a huge narcissist. :)

Lyrics:

I'm a badass
Don't you know my name?
Cyril is what I'm called
And I play the hard game
I kill your system
and all your rules
I'll remove your mind
So you can't even drool

Kick your ass
Kick your ass
Kick your ass
Kick you fucker
x 4

Break!

THIS IS MY TIME TO KICK YOUR ASS
YOU HAVE NO CHOICE AND NO CLASS
STEP TO ME And I'LL LAY YOU FLAT
DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!

I can't sing
I can only scream
But that's enough own you
And make you cream
I'll make your ears jizz
I'll make your ears pop
You can't even eat
Becuase I just won't stop


Kick your ass
Kick your ass
Kick your ass
Kick you fucker
x 2

Break!

THIS IS MY TIME TO KICK YOUR ASS
YOU HAVE NO CHOICE AND NO CLASS
STEP TO ME I'LL LAY YOU FLAT
DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!

this is the break down where you mosh!

THIS IS MY TIME TO KICK YOUR ASS
YOU HAVE NO CHOICE AND NO CLASS
STEP TO ME I'LL LAY YOU FLAT
DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!

Good song, rushed recording. Lots of mistakes.

Lyrics could use polishing and my middle eastern-y vocal trills only really got good at the end. Enjoy my screaming though. :)

Lyrics:
This is the decisive battle!
This is the time to fight
The moment is not for prattle
now let us make things right

Decide who will win
For the moment in time (x2)

You think we're insane or crazy
and you may have a point
But we are not lazy
We have the power of light!

Decide who will win
For the moment in time! (x2)

This way it will be
This is the way it must be.

This is our time to fight, this moment is what it all lead up to,

For our families and friends we must fight,

we must take a stand!(x2)

YAA!

Decide who will win
For the moment in time! (x2)

WE WILL WIN!!!!!

Oh god... this is terrible. Flat vocals and out of tune instruments.

LOLZNESS!!!


Lyrics:
Dragons they are here
Dragons they are many
Dragons they have come
To take away our pennies

Corporations
all consuming
Fire-breathing
Conquering.

Our swords may not be enough
We'll have to play it rough
We'll kill with pens and words
Becuase this world's absurd!!!

Dragons... are here
Dragons are many
Dragons have come
TAKING AWAY!!!!

Corporations
all consuming
Fire-breathing
Conquering.

Our swords may not be enough
We'll have to play it rough
We'll kill with pens and words
Becuase this world's absurd!!
