Keep Your Demon Down
03:15
|

|
Crawling out from my mind
The animal within mankind
Voices cry without a sound
Hear them say keep your demon down
I feel the fire in my eyes
The taste of blood satisfies
Words of fear spinning round
Again they say keep your demon down
Fighting for the way of life
Feeding off paradise
Hiding what can't be found
Chained firmly to the ground

A Dead Man's Tale
03:44
|

|
Forgive me father for I have sinned
I cannot hide the doubt I hold within
The more I look the more it seems
The storybook will shatter all your dreams
It seems to be an illusion
Burnt and disfigured by time
The hands reach out in their glory
The prophet beckons to the blind
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
It seems the truth of religion
Has been battered by the words
A world that's lost in confusion
The pen it seems is stronger than the sword
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
Now it seems in this hell
There is no faith in a god that failed
Can't you see can't you tell
There is no truth in a dean man's tale

Emotional Suicide
04:18

Danger danger you'd better watch your step
Your conscience won't let you forget
It's a tender trap you know you can't escape
Once you're addicted it's too late
Caught in a spider's web
you can't see the danger that you're in
Helpless helpless as you lose your hold
Your primal urges take control
In a selfish world of lust and fantasy
You'll be your own worst enemy
Caught in a spider's web
you can't see the danger that you're in
Emotional suicide it seems you'll never win
Down the road of self destruction
The grass is greener on the other side
So you taste the forbidden water
And its poisoning your mind

Back For More
05:19
|
|||
|
Is there something inside your head
That ignores the pain?
So near yet so far away
Could it be the same again?
In this darkness that I can feel
Time is standing still
The more I think about the past
The less it seems is real again
Its hard to look beyond yourself
Already gone too far
Like a curse that you can't escape
It brings you back for more

Resolution
03:17
|

|
You cover me with silver
And shower me with gold
It's hanging round my head like a halo
Trying to buy a future
That will never come
I'm gonna be myself this is my resolution
As you paint your picture
Of how it ought to be
It's only a reflection of yourself you see
The thirst for independence
Inside me it is strong
I'm gonna find myself this is my resolution
No more chains of passion
And no more strings of love
I'm gonna free myself this is my resolution

Temporary Insanity
02:12
|
|||
|
Too many call me irresponsible
Too many say that I am mad
They make me sick with their ignorance
Above the neck it seems they're dead
And I just don't care
Call it temporary insanity
Call it anything at all
You only see what you want to see
Blind to all except yourself
And I just don't care
I'll ignore what you say to me
I won't conform to your rules
You can stick your society
Down the throat of other fools
Cause I just don't care

Sweet Revenge
03:21
|
|||
|
I know what you fear I know what you see
I know how to hurt you and how it will be
There in your mind a conscience to bare
Come with me now I'm taking you there
The secrets you hide the conflict of truth
You wash from your eyes in the fountain of youth
With tears like a knife through an open wound
Behind all the lies I'm waiting for you
I'm looking for revenge sweet revenge
With justice so near yet so far away
In silence I wait for judgement day
I'm looking for revenge sweet revenge

The Joker Cries Too
03:38
|
|||
|
Face to face there's miles between us
Empty hearts selfish dreamers
Hide behind the walls built inside
Reaching out to kiss the stone
Drawing blood we can't let go
Has this fairy tale gone wrong?
I'll be your enemy and you'll be mine its true
We'll hide the tears but the joker cries too
Stepping back to dodge the blows
The more you win the more you lose
The more you've bottled up inside
Through the eyes that try to find
A look of love to tell a lie
See the mirror shatter in your mind
I'll be your prisoner and you'll be mine its true
We'll hide the fears But the joker cries too
For you

It
02:52
|
|||
|
Take a breath before you tell your lies
Hide the sins committed in your mind
We're only mortal
Flesh and blood it is the only way
Got to do your living day by day
Don't let me die I want to live
Don't let it end I won't forgive
This is it
Tell the truth and turn your head away
Don't be fooled by what the foolish say
If there is a god then I will pray
Got to live forever anyway

Sacred Time
05:44
|
|||
|
Shades of night fall on stony ground
To break the silence without a sound
Unveiled and helpless a naked sign
I shall remember this sacred time
Faded pictures of innocence
Twist and turn to the shadow dance
Cooling the fever with poisoned wine
I shall return to this sacred time
Empty chapters lie undisturbed
So revealing forgotten words
Whispering slowly the final line
I shall return to this one sacred time

Emotional Suicide Bedford, UK
Emotional Suicide were formed in early 1992 from the ashes of The Cut (thecutuk.bandcamp.com), when Witty, Bud and Jase were joined by Mark Thorman on drums. After demoing new material, the band went into the studio to record The Word EP. It was during this recording session that the band met engineer Jono Rothwell, who would later go on to engineer the Emotional Suicide album. ... more

Times of Obscene Evil and Wild Daring
by Smoulder
Proper power metal, played hard and heavy. Grrrr!!!
go to album
Cryptic Visions sees Allagash come of age musically. The roughest of edges are honed into wicked blades of cutting thrash. Its fast! Its loud! Its heavy! Crank it up 'till your eyes bleed.

For The Money (2024 Remaster)
by The Cut
Where it all began... Upbeat British heavy rock, with an emphasis on songwriting, unlike most contemporary metal.
