lyrics

THE PLEDGED

Take your love I despise it
It's a sickness
Your need to be needed

Reject me now
But I shall not want
I will not despair for I have found the fire

I know you want me on my knees so you can bear me like some burden on the back of what you see for you as a sacrifice to your lot in life

Our pairing is nothing as compared to the truth of the One!

Our love was an emptiness
I can see that now
We stood before your god and promised to be true
A god you've made meaningless as you deny that vow

You would deny your oath
Your pledge to eternity
You abandon your very god
In leaving me you repudiate your soul

Take your god and despise it
I'll take this new god
This new reality
Where exists absolution without sin
A paradise without pride

Your capricious nature leaves you bereft of all semblance of order in the whimsy of your life as you betray and confuse all those who would believe you're a victim of life

Soon you will follow, follow me
Soon you will follow, follow me
Follow me, follow me, follow me
Bitch

Excellent classic metal. Feels like it was literally picked from the mid-70's. Classic ©ough©ool

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst

Changes Happen To Everyone, Everywhere

Recorded in a shipping container, the Australian artist's quirky second album is a love letter to 70’s classic rock, folk, and psychedelia. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 15, 2023

Fantastic album from front to back! Incredibly catchy, fuzzy riffs, great songwriting and powerful lyricism. A classic of modern heavy psych / stoner music! Brett
