[Verse 1] In sleep filled eyes A light never realized And never will be Anything than what blind men see [Chorus] Open your eyes And behold that which makes you stand Recant your lies To hold firm to goals of the common man [Verse 2] You should see yourself As the flame ov hope dies There is nothing left Your wish has been denied [Chorus] Open your eyes And behold that which makes you stand Recant your lies To hold firm to goals of the common man [Bridge] Daily scorching sun Wake up, dreaming one Reality has come [Verse 1] In sleep filled eyes A light never realized And never will be Anything than what blind men see

Lost Song

By Marquis Smith

"The hurting ones always roam unchaperoned", a rather dark sentiment that echo through the entire piece. This person feels that even hope itself has betrayed them. They feel alone and abandoned. "Don't talk me down from the ledge," the author solicits... rather literal or figurative, I'd let the reader decide. Heavily influenced by early Anathema. No rhyme pattern throughout. Their character's cry is his lost song. Preferred genres (but not limited to) gothic metal/alternative metal/experimental.

Break My Heart of Stone

By Marquis Smith

"Break My Heart of Stone" describes an individual reaching their higher power. This person gave their life for the gospel. An inspirational piece and show there's light at the end of the tunnel. I was inspired by early Killswitch Engage & As I Lay Dying. This serves to stand out from my other works. Preferred genres (but not limited to) metalcore.

Me Inside

By Marquis Smith

"Me Inside" pretty straight forward piece. Just in your face late 90's/early 00's nu metal attitude. Classic AABB in rhyme scheme. Heavily influenced by bands like Korn. Preferred genres (but not limited to) nu-metal.

Maiden Ov Black

By Marquis Smith

"Maiden Ov Black" details the author having relations with a woman for the first time. The young whipper snapper is swept off his feet by this seasoned lover. He liken the experience to witchery of sorts and feels lost for her, forever! He says in the end, "no one makes it out alive" suggesting that he and whoever else that had the opportunity with this lover has and will loose all rational. A very fun piece to write indeed. Heavily influenced by My Dying Bride (band). There is rhyme scheme but not all the way through. Preferred genres (but not limited to) death doom metal/gothic metal.

Just Like My Daddy Raised Me

By Brian Hendrix

A song I wrote about how a lot of people tell me I look and act like my father. I think this is something a lot of men can relate to, how we end up our father's sons. I'm really happy with how this turned out. It's one of those songs that hit home more for me now since my father passed away. It's a classic style of country song here, to be sure.
