Second single of our new EPmore

New Singlemore

This is the last track of the upcoming EP! In this song I used a riff (opening riff) that my Brother taught me back in the days. It was important to me to use it in this song and it is a worthy end of the tribute EP for me personally. As always, big thanks to my friends Gonzalo Civita for the incredible vocals, Henrik Schaller for the great solo and Matías Takaya for the great production! Lyrics by Shannon Once upon a time there was a boy and by his surroundings, he was destroyed. Pain over pain, zero gain He was sure that nothing in his life would remain They would kill him in his sleep While he would desperately count sheep And dream of a better life For which he wanted to strive. When you close your eyes in the darkness lies Death disguised as a lovely friend If you don't watch out It will reach for you And pull you down into the dark ghost town And pull you down But then one night, it got cold He saw something on his pillow, it was mold As he reached out He felt a touch He wanted to shout Air in his lungs was not much As he turned around, he saw its eyes Shining in a dangerous red Upon where he lied At first he was scared, as it visited him every night And soon it became clear That the thing had died Its pale skin Its long hands The greasy hair and a voice of despair It tried to pull the boy outside Tried to cover his eyesight And the boy went with his new friend When you close your eyes in the darkness lies Death disguised as a lovely friend If you don't watch out It will reach for you And pull you down into the dark ghost town And pull you down But one day, as he became a young adult His friend stopped visiting He took it as an insult As it seemed like his peaceful world was vanishing He waited and waited, but his friend stayed away What stayed was the mold in grey For the first time in years, he left his house And he regretted it yet so soon Because what shocked him most to find Was a grave with his name under the pale moonlight He saw his friend waving him with his pale, translucent hand And instructed him to follow him back to their peaceful world And the boy followed him into the afterworld So after all this time He took his last breath And followed his friend Who was known as death.
