For those of you who don't know, apart from being "The L-Train" I'm also the lead singer and keyboardist for a progressive metal band called New Paradigm. We've just finished up our debut album "Faultlines" and I thought some of you might be interested in this particular song. (Bonus points* to anyone who can figure out what it's about.)
Lyrics:
Night falls
as the sun descends on the eve of the longest day
Fate calls
and the jealous gods will rescind their wicked ways
Banished for crimes unpardoned
Left in a barren place
A thousand years of darkness
Erased without a trace
A thousand years have passed
The longest day has come
The stars will aid in my escape
Nighttime eternal has begun!
(In the darkness all will see...)
A thousand years have passed
The longest day has come
The stars will aid in my escape
It has begun!
Look to the skies
For the heavens will now never be the same
And the night will last forever
Those who'd forgot
my existence will now bow before my name
And the night will last forever
*this is the internet, where the winners are arbitrary and the points are meaningless
