This song features content primarily composed by myself, Mike Menard. Oliver Herbert, from All That Remains, composed and played the solo. John Maggard, from Unearth, plays the bass on this song. I sing, play all guitars, except solo, sequenced drums and keyboards for this song. It was recorded in my home with Cakewalk Sonar. This is a rough mix. |
CD: Unified Field Theory (working title)

Story Behind the Song
This song contains prophetic imagery of the future of mankind. It reveals the grim possibilities of life if we do not revamp the way government and big business rule our lives.
Lyrics
we give up all we can by means of possession
just to show them we won’t give in
we are only few
if you only knew your freedom sold you for blood yet unborn
forget what you own
there is only what you owe
forget your dreams of tomorrow
they are filled with sorrow of today
beg for simple pleasures
granted on the eighth day
And in unison as dray horses
We line the streets to feed
Groveling in misery, Freedom licks their feet
Free only to think, but not to act
Our punishment for procreation
Eternity in abomination
I remain bestirred in the arms of Morpheus
Please awaken me to a new dawn of quietus
The picture’s been painted, Life be the brush
Held captive in nations of civil distrust
We divide our ideals to the finer extremes
Taskmasters billow in communal schemes
Empirical results displayed on projected stages
We all watch in denial, illusions of mages
You’ve been led to believe your voice has a say
Upon deaf ears fallen, your words drift astray
Dreaming in this fading norm leads us along this distraught course
Breathe through your soul and hear through your eyes
This medium sympathizes not with your cries
Transcend beyond to your timeless mind
Forget what you’ve learned
There is only what you know
Forget their screams of sorrow
They are hollow and devoid
Beg not for awakening
Granted on any given day
And in unison as dray horses
We line the streets to feed
Groveling in misery, Freedom licks their feet
Free only to think, but not to act
Our punishment for procreation
Eternity in abomination
I remain bestirred in the arms of Morpheus
Please awaken me to a new dawn of quietus
The dawn of death marks the seed’s slumber,
And upon its inception,
your essence can choose to live again
or transcend the pales and voids of qliphoth
