You are listening to a song from my demo tape "Cave Canem Demos" that I recorded years before I was signed to Projekt records and released my first real album, "The Devil's Bris" in 1998, I hope you enjoy hearing the songs in their earliest forms!
Lyrics:
(spoke) Logic and reason walk hand in hand with aphasia.
Bound and gagged she leads them astray through a forest.
Until they come to a place of utter silence.
And they laugh... and I laugh.
Six feet of earth above my head
keeps me safe from what she said.
Six walls of wood to keep them out
the smart remarks, the screams the shouts
they scream, they shout
theres only one way to drown them out
I hear your voice I hit the ground.
You looked for me but I'm not around.
There's a small cafe where I wrote it down
I looked for you, you were not around
you're the burning light that killed my child
he's gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground
Some come to pay their last respects
or beckon me to come around.
They leave dried flowers in the air
or place their feelings on the doorstep.
At best they try to understand
and offer plans, most futile plans.
Here in this darkness I can see
your skin's the closest thing to grace.
It dance like ghosts upon my fingers
and feelings fly, they're still alive
There's only one way to drown them out
I hear your voice I hit the ground.
You looked for me but I'm not around
There's a small cafe there I wrote it down.
I looked for you, you were not around.
You're the burning light that killed my child
He's gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground
Underground
Six feet of earth above my head
don't keep me safe from what she said.
Six walls of wood don't keep them out
these frightful screams come from inside.
They lay with me here through the night.
