Insane(splendors and agonies)
Stealing swords
out of their sheaths
and stabbing their roots
as deep i can reach
These times are marked
by insane splendors and agonies
over dramatic conclusions
by a rising culture complex
A moral vision is needed
to save the souls of my kind
a kind of working savior
undesputed or denied
A flight of arrows
headed the charge
twenty thousand soldiers
versus one with a heart
Truely our lives are sparked
by insane splendors and agonies
an over dramatic conclusion
from a rising culture complex
Came across a man
with no sword in his sheath
In place of his weapon were
pens and papered sheets
Shouting I asked his name
his mission and means of being
I am your brother, your father
and son. In reply he screamed
I am the seeker
seeking souls in pain
I am the seerer
brining sanity to the insane
"Truely the time is marked by insane splendors and ag-
onies. But watch when the two curves cross: you
children
Not far away down the hawk's nightmare future: you
will see monsters."

I REALLY REALLY like your song!
THere are parts that are just pure gold:
A flight of arrows
headed the charge
twenty thousand soldiers
versus one with a heart
Came across a man
with no sword in his sheath
In place of his weapon were
pens and papered sheets
Shouting I asked his name
his mission and means of being
I am your brother, your father
and son. In reply he screamed
I am the seeker
seeking souls in pain
I am the seerer
brining sanity to the insane
Most of the song, in fact! Really excellent stuff. I'd trade 10 of my good songs for one like that.
Wow, thanks! I wrote it very quickly and some of the parts dont sing as well as id like. I got the quote out of a jerry garcia biography and it really stuck with me. much love thanks for the reply

Mellowmood,
Welcome to SSG.
Good song! This reminds me somewhat of Led Zepplin
in their Lord of the Rings inspired stuff. What do you
have in mind musically?
