It's Alive

I am a spinning blade, and I'll split you in two,
I am a sinking ship and I'm going down on you,
No use in fighting now, you've awakened the beast,
Wrap your hand around its neck and try to put it back at peace.
A murderer of serenity, a harvester of anxious screams,
The monster that was sleeping hears your cry,
Awakening into unrest your heart is pounding out your chest,
You break into a nervous sweat as you stare into it's single eye,
It's Alive.
Breathing new life into me, you're mine to command,
Feel free to take this lying down or arch your back and stand,
An ancient creature we all know, hiding under cover,
Summoned from unearthly depths to dive into another.
A murderer of serenity, a harvester of anxious screams,
The monster that was sleeping hears your cry,
Awakening into unrest your heart is pounding out your chest,
You break into a nervous sweat as you stare into it's single eye,
It's Alive.
Struggling with internal strife, we're gonna bring this creature to life,
Without its presence you'll never feel whole, your life will be missing a chunk of its soul,
Come in unto me with human sacrifice, It's Alive.
A murderer of serenity, a harvester of anxious screams,
The monster that was sleeping hears your cry,
Awakening into unrest your heart is pounding out your chest,
You break into a nervous sweat as you stare into it's single eye,
It's Alive.

Matriarch

You're nothing more than concentrated evil,
Enveloped in a shell of impotency,
You emanate a nauseating aura,
You personify the worst of society.
Infernal Matriarch, your broodlings keep you in the dark,
They might have grown within your hive, but you've done nothing for their lives,
Infernal Matriarch, your legacy will fall apart,
As soon as you're dead and gone your foul rhetoric won't carry on.
You see me as a vermin in your garden,
You wanna see my mouth filled up with shit,
I am but a plague upon your saplings,
You don't wanna know where my fingers fit.
Infernal Matriarch, your broodlings keep you in the dark,
They might have grown within your hive, but you've done nothing for their lives,
Infernal Matriarch, your legacy will fall apart,
As soon as you're dead and gone your foul rhetoric won't carry on.
Infernal Matriarch, the weight of guilt's all you impart,
Your house is not a home with how detached your family's grown,
Infernal Matriarch, your life's as empty as your heart,
Your dreams are dead and gone and you can't live them now through your son.
Your only value's in your husband's money,
All your children dread giving you their time,
You're nothing more than fifty years of failures,
That you've buried underneath Xanax and wine.
Infernal Matriarch, your broodlings keep you in the dark,
They might have grown within your hive, but you've done nothing for their lives,
Infernal Matriarch, your legacy will fall apart,
As soon as you're dead and gone your foul rhetoric won't carry on.

Temple of Dagon

Devil woman in her stare, watches you lie sleeping there,
She ponders out here windowsill, she'll trade your love for money still.
Your lies are placed, your trust's erased, your secrets you could not keep safe,
Betrayal now thick in the air, the servants come to cut your hair.
Your eyes have both been gouged out, and your head has now been shaved,
Where you once ruled proudly you've been reduced to a slave,
You spin their wheel in agony as they whip you like a mule,
Your god has now forsaken you as you forsook his rules.
I've guided you through many fights, though you broke the vow of the Nazirite,
These infidel are no use to me, we'll tear their false god of the sea.
Put your life into my hands and bring glory to my name,
You've asked me for a second chance, so I'll help you just the same,
I am the god of Abraham, let my vengeance guide you on,
Rend the walls, destroy their halls, let none survive in the Temple of Dagon.
You let yourself lie dormant, though your strength it has returned,
Before the crowd, they laugh out loud, though their city soon will burn,
Praying to the heavens as the wind blows through your hair,
Their shrine ready for destruction, caught in your now blind stare.
I've guided you through many fights, though you broke the vow of the Nazirite,
These infidel are no use to me, we'll tear their false god of the sea.
Put your life into my hands and bring glory to my name,
You've asked me for a second chance, so I'll help you just the same,
I am the god of Abraham, let my vengeance guide you on,
Rend the walls, destroy their halls, let none survive in the Temple of Dagon.

I've seen that lines are forming invisibly across your face,
Despite our tries we can';t get by them, and they won't be erased.
There's nothing left to try and nothing left to do,
But I'd give my life away to try to give one back to you.
And I'd Swallow the Razors that tear you up inside,
I'd walk with you through fire as pieces of us die,
And I'd give up all my strength and spit back in their face,
But those days are gone and over as we wait for them to Fade Away.
Soldier of misfortune with still a distance to go,
No wounds or battle scars are physically shown,
Time is the only bandage to heal your agony,
I gave you six better years than the next sixty without me because,
I Swallowed the Razors that tore you up inside,
And I walked with you through fire as pieces of us died,
And I gave up all my strength to spit back in their face,
But those days are gone and over as you wait for me to Fade Away.
Deep in my mind I felt we both knew this day would come,
You fed me razor blades, but you couldn't stand the sight of blood.
And I Swallowed the Razors that tore you up inside,
And every day we walked through fire as pieces of us died,
And I gave up all my strength and you spit back in my face,
But those days are gone and over as I wait for you to Fade Away.

Klaymore Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Hailing from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Klaymore is an independent metal band infused with elements of the power, speed, and thrash subgenres. A mixture of memorable melodies, a hint of humor, and riffs for days has culminated to form their “New Breed” of heavy metal. The group is fronted by self-proclaimed “Queen Bitch of the Universe,” Katy Scary, who comes armed with a four-octave range. ... more

An absolutely amazing Epic fantasy Power metal band. It reflects the warrior spirit very well. I'm looking forward to their third album.

Who Do You Think We Are?
by A Sound of Thunder
supported by 4 fans who also own “It's Alive: 5th Anniversary Edition”
This is just so good, and I don't usually dig cover albums, everything great about metal is here, and what a voice! To take on The Last In Line and nail it... truly incredible. Unsurprisingly, so is the rest of their catalog.
