about
This is the 4th single from the upcoming album UNHUMAN. It has a Slayeresque first section and moves on to a different and more melodic thrash section. The middle of the song has a lengthy solo, only to go back to the first part again. The aim was to carry the listener to different thrash soundscapes. The lyrical theme features the theme of death and dying and the emptiness of death - asking the question: how come people don't lose their minds thinking about the ultimate end?
lyrics
GRAVE MADNESS
Madness of grave
Feeds into the brain
Refuge for lost souls that have nothing left to save
Waves churn and roar
Seeping through the floor
Ever faster to reach nevermore
Void's left its mark
Where light was stark
Diving to the abyss while last hope departs
Maker's alone
Emperor's dethroned
End my existence, soon to be told
A desert lies beyond the glass
Window into aching lives
Morbid thoughts befriend me
Unites us in misery
Nothingness awaits beyond
Freezing time, lost aeons
Those who've left before
Wherever you are, I'll be too
Can't contain..the blackness within
Unending wish to leave..
This world behind..
To reach..the eternal sleep of mine
Wiping all
That I once had
Harvesters are here to slash the threads
Holding on
With hopeless plight
Mortals die in immortal hands
Nothingness awaits beyond
Freezing time, lost aeons
Those who've left before
Wherever you are, I'll be too
Can't contain..the blackness within
Thoughts of grave..are driving you insane
The sleep..patiently awaits
No one will remember you
You are lost in shadows hold
Never to return
