Crows at War *my band* lyrics

I like your Katatonia picks.

Thanks, we're still trying to learn some more songs by Katatonia, but it's not too easy... Hopefully when I see them live; along with Dimmu Borgir, Diabolic, and Krisiun; that they'll play some songs so we can see what they're doing while they play... It might make it a little easier.
 
Damnit... I thought it was Katatonia that was gonna be at the concert along with Dimmu... Turns out I thought wrong, and it's gonna be Cryptopsy... Two totally different bands, I'm so unhappy... But 8 days after that I get to see Dream Theater... So, I guess it'll be alright. I got some lyrics over the weekend, so I'll get them posted after I let my sister on for awhile.
 
Lyrics for: "Life... There's No Meaning"

We came in search for answers
But all we found was more questions
Never could we be so lost
Yet never so found

Lost is where we are
And lost is where we've been
We can't go somewhere
Without going insane

I came in search for glory
But the others...
They came for trust
In my life, there's no meaning

We keep going to the end of the world
Everything sucks, but why?
We have reasons for losing things
But in life... There's no meaning

There's no meaning to something
And there's nothing I can explain
To let you go
I have shot myself, and I left myself without a meaning
 
Lyrics for: "Tomorrow May Never Come"

Lay down on your bed
Start wondering
I killed us, and left you there
I walk along a street so empty...

Black stalks the night
So, I must be the black
The evil dark
It sticks inside my veins

I pull the trigger
But nothing happens
You can fool someone into thinking
That tomorrow may never come

You see the agony
You have emotions
But deep down, you know nothing is there
I exist in a world so down

The sun will not rise for everyone
Tomorrow may never come
You hope that you can live through today
But what if you don't?

You spend all your time worrying about nothing
You realize that hearts never break
I let go, and never held so dear
This is what I hold true

I keep memories in my head
I have pictures from way back then
Looking through those times when...
When all I saw was happy faces

Well, now everyone just seems to be getting worse
And I know inside, it hurts
Kill me
I know tomorrow may never come...

Well, if any of you are wondering where the profanity is, we don't like to use it, because we're not trying to bring out the power that most music tries to with swear words and that. We just try to express our selves, so if you wonder why there isn't any of it, we just figure we don't need it...
 
@YMIR: We're heavy metal... But right now we're just doing soft songs. We've got one heavy song on our CD that has all of our own stuff on it. I'll get that posted on here pretty soon, and that'll be the last of the lyrics until we get our next CD ready which will be awhile, but you guys just wait. We'll get heavier. We just think that being soft is working out pretty well, but soon we'll be more like Slayer or Deicide. Maybe even Soilwork. We actually sound like Vintersorg kind of...
 
"We came in search for answers

Never could we be so lost
Yet never so found

Lost is where we are
And lost is where we've been
We can't go somewhere
Without going insane"

That!!!! That right there!!!!! :eek:)))) WHOA! :eek:)
That's the way I used to write my songs a
year ago or something... Latly I haven't been
able to write a thing... :eek:/ But... Anyway!
That was just great reading! :eek:)

The whole lyrics for "Tomorrow May Never
Come"goes very deep for me.... I don't know
what the guy writing it put into it, but I know
what it makes ME feel, and I can relate to it :eek:)

And this part -->

"I pull the trigger
But nothing happens"

that right there...... that's total emptiness.......
 
@Blackspirit: Well, it's good that you can somewhat relate to what he's saying...

But for now, this is the last song that I have lyrics for, and we're coming up with more at the moment, and if we finish anytime soon, I'll type the lyrics... But the last song is called (The only song with swearing in it): "I Exist Only to Kill"
----------------------
A world so dark
No turning back
Fuck this world
I don't need it

So everything sticks in my head
I am the reaper
I take my scythe
I kill everything in my sight

Fuck you!
You're dead
I exist only to kill
I am the dead

This shit goes so deep
But where it ends
It ends with no return
Feelings inside, they're all fucked up

I guess there's no use for saying this
But I exist only to kill
I killed you
And I'll do it again

Death!
Aww, shit!
I did it again
Slayed the beauty queen

No turning back
I must leave this land for another
A place where I won't exist
But for now, I exist, and I exist only to kill
--------------------------------
That's it! No more lyrics out yet. But if I hear anything, I'll surely let you know.
 
Okay, I got another song we did, it's very weird, because we took a part of a song from several different songs and bands. At the end, I'll name all the bands and songs the part came from, and they'll be in order.

Lyrics for: "I'm All Messed Up"
--------------------
A black age of fire
Brief in its vicious eloquence
Removing the dross
Love will arise from the ashes of your loss

To feel the emptiness
I see only punishment
You caused me dark dreams
You brought me evil dreams
My anger for your promises is just growing
I feel your rage

So wrong
For so long
So the truth comes out at last

I see angels burning, falling down in ruins
Looking down I see my ashes scattered around my grave

You've always tried to run away
But I'm in your dreams, and I'm alive!

Ardent starshine upon my face
The monumental nightsky reveal its torches
Unaltered for aeons, yet zestful they're flaming
Like ornamental diamonds
In my telescopes focus, a striding light
Conjure me fixedly
Oh, what a colourful drama
What a theatrical performance

Sing me a song, you're a singer
Do me a wrong, you're a bringer of evil
The Devil is never a maker
The less that you give, you're a taker
So it's on and on and on
It's Heaven and Hell, oh well

Kill all
Fight death
Lesions fighting love
Fight them all in a living hell
Slowly rot and you die
You fight death as you slowly realize
Kill them all
Fight death and slowly read in the love
Fight them all, join me, slowly we rot
Slowly we rot

Whispering voices summoning screams
Waiting for Satan to bless their sins
Blackhearted angels fallen from grace
Possessed by the search for utter darkness

'Cause I'm a wrathchild
Well, I'm a wrathchild
Yeah, I'm a wrathchild
I'm coming to get you, oooh yeah

Storming demons travel through the night
The time is almost here
I lay in a jacket of steel
My scream, no one hears

Don't talk to strangers
'Cause they're only there to do you harm
Don't write in starlight
'Cause the words may come out real
Don't hide in doorways
You may find the key that opens up your soul
Don't go to Heaven cause it's really only Hell
Don't smell the flowers
They're an evil drug to make you lose your mind
Don't dream of women
'Cause they only bring you down

A gathering in the cold, in the North, in the dark lands of Pohjola
Where the sun had not been crossing the sky nor seen for centuries...
------------------------

***Note: Patrick, the singer of Crows at War, does not sound like the singer for any of these bands and has no intention to. The drums and guitar work doesn't sound like any of these bands either, and we're not trying to copy the bands. We just wanted to have fun, and that's all we did.

Lyrics for: "Romance is Like a Two-Sided Coin"

Well here we are
Standing alone in the cold shadows
Drifting away from the life we once shared
Reaching out to touch what I felt

I'm losing my mind
And I can't keep control
I'm losing it, I'm losing you
It's all so hard

I felt your touch
And it was everything
But I finally realized there's another side to that coin
Romance... Is like a two-sided coin

I feel the end
It gets closer
I lost your photograph
And it sailed away from me

I have never had much to say
But I knew this was it
Love has given me everything
But I took it as nothing

I see now that no matter how many times I flip the coin
It shows me nothing
I owe nothing back
And I am forever buried

Crucify me for I'm still alive
Wishing I was dead is so hard
Oh, yes, it is so hard
I live in a time of disgrace

I can always give up hope
But hope is what makes me live
I've never really cared
Until now

Well here we are
Standing alone in the cold shadows
Drifting away from the life we once shared
Reaching out to touch what I felt
 
WOW! "Romance is Like a Two-Sided Coin"
is REALLY good! :eek:))) Even though it's
"tragic" it's still very positive, cause love is
the greatest thing in the world....
I dunno what to say, I just really liked it :eek:)

WHEN WHEN WHEN will we EVER get to
HEAR your MUSIC?!??????
 
@The Nomad: Yeah, I know, but that's how we looked at it, and well, I think it turned out pretty well.

@Blackspirit: Do I have to say it again? We're still trying, but it's hard. We'll get a website soon, but Geocities sucks, and no one has a server to host with. And we don't know what to use. We aren't going to stop trying, but please be patient. If you're ever in the USA, stop over in Minnesota, and we'll do a show.
