no I won't eat of the body, no I won't drink of the blood
no I won't gather at the river, no I won't carry your burden
no I won't bath in the glory, no I won't bath in the glory
no I won't beg for forgiveness
yes you will
no I won't handle a serpent…
I almost thought I knew it, so very close to space and time
it almost makes me lose my mind
2 seconds closer to the, the moment fleeting thoughts are mine
so far away, so close
grasping, the memory, the secret, divine
I never knew that someday…
all the pounding waves
drowning out the sound
the sound is poison
diving down below
sinking very slow
drown away the sound
if I, can't make it
stop your soliloquy
I feel the death inside me
in this succession
the still and quiet
I will succumb…
all the pounding waves
drowning out the sound
the sound is poison
diving down below
sinking very slow
drown away the sound
if I, can't make it
stop your soliloquy
I feel the death inside me
in this succession
the still and quiet
I will succumb…
all the pounding waves
drowning out the sound
the sound is poison

the still and quiet
I will succumb…
the ever growing night
hides the sight of your sleeping body
and slide right in next to you
and try my best to hold you tightly
just an hour earlier
so hard to hear above the screaming
and left alone at 1 a.m.
this futile gesture lost in dreaming…
I almost thought I knew it, so very close to space and time
it almost makes me lose my mind
2 seconds closer to the, the moment fleeting thoughts are mine

Hey AFC, nice work on this one. I like the melody on it. You have a different sound than most of the things I have been hearing lately, different in cool, vibey sort of way. Thanks for posting this. Cheers, Gary
facedown far from only, every bit the proper gent
feeling very tiny, kindly pass along a hand
and please stifle the laughter as I crown the better man
borrowing the gibberish, this continental drift
line up the idiots and choose your tool…

I like this a lot. Nice work.
BTW... "i've been working on it a while. the drums sound like shit, my vox are horid and the guitars suck balls"
... made me laugh... pretty much describes everything I do.
as well as enjoying the interpretation.. I LOVE the 'about' column!! haha. Me ol' ma does a similar thing when she sets the meals down 'meats overdone, potatoes could have been on a bit longer and the sauce is too thick. Enjoy!'
Oh horray! LOVE this arrangement and the lyrics sound so much better when you sing them! That guitar riff echoing the original string pipe motif sounds so haunting! Nice work! (Oh and those sweeping vox of yours..!) Right, I'm going to have to do a cover of your cover!
the first new song written for the RPM challenge, i love the guitar part, but the words were last minute. some people get tired of my anti-religion diatribe. oh well
Judge me, I want everyone all up in here
cast your stones for slandering…
this is 4 bass tracks and drums
the 3rd song i wrote about my wife. maybe someday the second song will show up somewhere.
like a hunter hunts its prey
eyeing me, hungrily
can't keep her paws to herself
and i'm not about to fight it
it…
this song is 6 bass parts on top of drum loops. each part is completely seperate mix and effect. that synth sound in the chorus is actually me singing falsetto with muey effects on it.
a song from a previous band (kill.pop.), i took the metal out of it and made it more dreamy. this is actually the 3rd version of this song that i've played.

I was born into a fire
Only days alive and swallowed whole
Tight in the grip of man
Cold and calloused hand
Side-step the blow
Joy is dissolution
Joy is dissolution…
there's absolutely no reason why you guys aren't freaking famous and crap with songs like these. better than 99.99999999% of all the crap out there including my own stuff.
You still can't believe
That you'd accept the reprieve
Despite the excitement of the sound
That detached you from the crowd
When the foliage recedes
Contracting one more disease
Hidden in the fog that engulfs and surrounds
What was lost has now…
So you feel like singing
All your friends say you'll go far
Be a star
You'd cut your arm off for those yesses
Sell your soul for just one more
But what for
You know it's only karaoke
Fake plastic art
It's OK you've got your mentors
And they really…
Ten stubbed out Embassy lay scattered on the floor
The silhouette behind the curtain disappeared from sight once more
Listening in again
Listening in again
The target reappeared, this time his luck was in
The microwave detector read the password…
When you speak
Random words projected out
When you hear
All ignored except the shout
Claiming that you want to be
One of the last to shake the tree
When you see
And your eyes reflect the past
When you feel
But the question's not yet asked
As…

Waiting up for someone or just afraid of the dark
The devil’s in the drive
Laughing and flashing his headlights

K.G. wanted to write a "good times" song and i think he hit this one out of the park. here in indy the highway does a big loop around the city. add some fun and music and that equals a rockin' good time.
A HOUSE CALLED BROKEN
youre in a house and your wasting away
youre in a house and its long long lonely day
youre in a house that you cant wait to forget
youre in a house all broken a little lie you tell yourself
but when it falls to pieces…

hey man....the new stuff sounds amazing....especially love this one...your wife's got a great voice... cheers, damian
This one has a cool vibe and tone to it. Excellent work. I like the solo parts, they feel like you could float on them.
Hey, great song and nicely done.
Nice!
Epic! Brilliant! Love those fearless vocal lines, as ever!
Tender song. Truly wonderful lyrics.

oh yeah
I like this a lot. Nice work. BTW... "i've been working on it a while. the drums sound like shit, my vox are horid and the guitars suck balls" ... made me laugh... pretty much describes everything I do.
kind of reminds me a little of something off Tool's Opiate. Nice.
Wow- that rocks!
as well as enjoying the interpretation.. I LOVE the 'about' column!! haha. Me ol' ma does a similar thing when she sets the meals down 'meats overdone, potatoes could have been on a bit longer and the sauce is too thick. Enjoy!'
So very different from the original, I can tell you had fun with this one. Great cover.

i had this guitar part bouncing around for a couple months, unfortunately i was never quite happy with the song itself, one of the parels of RPM.
this song is 6 bass parts on top of drum loops. each part is completely seperate mix and effect. that synth sound in the chorus is actually me singing falsetto with muey effects on it.
and that's my kid singing at the end of the song, which is pretty creepy.
