We are currently preparing a new song for the 2017 Full length Album, song tentatively titled “Behold the Pale Horse”.
It begins as somewhat of a dark march feel that escalates in drive and intensity. The message attempts to expose many of the current “evils” of our time, the escalating destructive forces driven by covert secret agendas hiding, yet in plain sight. The alarms are sounding; many are awakening to an escalating inner voice that is calling to “rise” and actively respond to defend all that we deem “loving, innocent, good and true”.
Below are some of the lyrics that came to us that are still in development. Hopefully they reflect some of that angst and birthing energy of our times, and give a sense to people that they are not alone in this uncomfortable energy. Energy that we can no longer ignore nor sweep under the rug with “superficial pleasantries.” Critical feedback, reaction, and open discussion most welcome. Hope to give a peek at the music (even if only in rough form) soon.

“Behold the Pale Horse” (working Title)
Eyes
open yearn
to see through lies
In darkness churn
the hatred Rise
Lines
cross the sky
deceiving minds
the heartless spurn
the hatred Rise
RISE
Eyes open yearn
Eyes open yearn
Grey ashes falling
the evil is crawling
as fibers grow under my skin
worming controlling
to silence the knowing
the voices that stir deep within
Something is calling me
out from my shell
prodding and shaking
like no other voice
Something is drawing me
up from my rest
calling to wake me
like no other voice
RISE!
Play actors falling
the curtain calls knowing
the crisis before it begins
Truth becomes fiction
a mass mind addiction
gives comfort to blanket the sin
All my defences
show weakened resistance
no shelter to hide from my soul
Courage is growing
i drown in the flowing
of surfacing voices above and below
(Ominous Whispers, mingling with voices of sentiment)
(lead guitar solo,
Key Theme)
Eyes open yearn
Eyes open yearn
to see through lies
Poison prescription
sends death on its mission
for profit position and gain
Enlist our children
misguide through sedition
their innocence sipped like champaign
Played contradictions
confused definitions
soon stiffle the will I intend
Snared by suspicion
Conspired coalissions
they hide behind walls we defened
Something is pulling me up from my rest
Violently shaking like no other can….
(Keyboards and Guitars Solo)
LOVE
Eyes open yearn
