    What do you think? I think after rewriting it 40314902319 times they're at their best level

    They are bound to the Earth like trees
    Suffocating under the weight of an icy grave
    Reaching to be free, but only their limbs are seen
    Hoping that one day someone will see:
    They can't escape with lacerated wings

    The ocean surrounds me, covering everything
    Nothing will be clearly seen; confusion overwhelming
    No-one can save you, you're on your own, left to die
    Manipulating every bleeding heart you can find
    I can't escape with lacerated wings.

    Swarms of nets, waves of screams
    Entangle: your captive illusions and dreams
    The mask has be seared - The truth now they see
    The Liar - Vampiric Fiend; lowly thief
    And now they know you can't escape with Lacerated Wings

    There's reasons for your rejections:
    Your Heavy heart's transferred oppression
    The scars are too deep to pass the trials
    But you can find peace in your cage of empty spirals
    You Cannot Escape With Lacerated Wings

    Oooo I like it!! Excellent job! It reminds me (this is a compliment!!) of older Evanescence lyrics like on their Origin CD. Is has the same depth IMO.

    Thanks :slight_smile: I actually do love that album; they're a big influence on me, they got me started in music

    I'm not really in a band, but I do play guitar (not well), sing, write music, and I recently ordered a tin whistle, which I want to add to my music to sound more folk/Celtic. I do have my own project (I guess that's what you call it) called Illian, and I plan to make a demo for it, called Relics of Fear. I already know what songs are going to be in it, and all the lyrics are written. About one song is almost done out of the 5

    Good rule of thumb for song writing, when you are tired of rewriting the lyrics you are done!!! lol! Good job though, I like it!
