out of nothing we begin
come together until the end
when the ocean is drained of her blood
from the heavens falls the first
seed to sprout forth from the earth
to grow into the almighty sun
land and ocean
unite as one
mother father
moon and the sun
following the birth
the stillness of the earth
but she moves through the motions
there will always be more work
we have sealed our fate
this world we must create
and we will take it day by day
by day by day
out of nothing we begin
so shall we return in the end
only for all to repeat again

oh we are the ones
from whom all life shall come
our blood the stars
will rain to make them
oh we are the ones
whose brilliant light is spun
across the sky
until the end of time
ever changing waxing waning
one reflection of another
bound by my own hands' restraining
broken to end our almother
/
you'll damn us all
you fool
lest the fall kill
you damned us all
we are the fools
we are all
destined for doom

the MAN of the WOOD

how i despise the pride of man
to carelessly saunter atop holy lands
with appetites to never sate
you'll carve yourselves an early grave
i know just what you have in store
precious seasides will turn bloody shore
damnable indifference your ultimate felling
forever forgotten in the allife's telling
and when the end does come
we'll drink wine stained with blood
to celebrate life
to bring in the night

the TWO

oh and her eyes
reflect the meaning of all life
she's the one for whom all strive
to lay beside her every night
oh her breath feels oh so sweet
and she shivers when she speaks
she's the muse of every poem
the one regret you left alone
in every woman in every man
she's your family and your friends
she's the thing forever sought
but she both is and she is not
trust not in your eyes
don't believe her lies
(there's too good to be true)
no
i will take everything from
you will lose yourself inside me
come

the FELLING

will this be our undoing
this is not all our choosing
save the children
heed their silence
pray for ends to
needless violence
falling before self indulgent men
must we suffer all this once again
we've no power
sons and daughters
feed the gods
an endless slaughter
but it isn't enough
share a tainted blood
why must this be
my destiny
to be your death
despite the rest
why

the OCEAN

i thought i heard the ocean singing
but it was only a cry
i thought i heard the ocean breathing
but it was only a sigh
i thought i heard the ocean pleading
but she only asked me why
now as i see the ocean dying
i loved none other than i

the SONG of the GODS

in the shadow of our mother
we follow one another
end this unholy suffering
return the earth to nothing
we will never recover
this is the death of love
we will never recover
this is the death of us all
we'll pretend it's all alright
but this is the end of all life
whoa
and it came to be
as we had always known
that the life of the almother
would be choked out now gone
and without the ocean
to sustain the tides
our original essence
could not fall nor rise
and the sun would drop from the sky
and the moon would meet his demise
and their children would cry
collapse unable to breathe
and the world as we knew it
would return to the vast sea

TRANSCANADIAN ANGER
by DOPETHRONE
supported by 7 fans who also own “RETURN to the VAST SEA”
This album is an absolute banger. The riffs are especially groovy this time, the vocals are amazing, and the overall thing is supercatchy. If I'd have to list one downside, it's that the mix is so bass-heavy that the sound only truely comes into it's right when listened on good headphones or extremely good speakers. On anything less it can sound like the bass drowns the rest of the music out. 9/10
