I wrote these lyrics on August 1st. Today, I put them to music. Not much here, just my Strat + Vox. I tried to capture the angst of the lyrics in the performance.

Also, I do really like the guitar solo on this one… 😁

See You In The Shadows…

Lyrics

The Temple Of The Night
===================

The mundane is a prison of mediocracy
Bound by the expectations of democracy
The vain pursuit of a capitalist fantasy
And the whims of a popular dependancy

Beyond the shadow in the Temple of the Night
The path opens leading beyond into the light
Fears & expectations are the chains that bind
Preventing our potential in these modern times

Captivated by socio-political regulations
Enslaved to our economic expectations
Indoctrinated by Influencers pontifications
And expected to bleed a mandatory donation

Beyond the shadow in the Temple of the Night
The path opens leading beyond into the light
Fears & expectations are the chains that bind
Preventing our potential in these modern times

Don't think don't question don't dream
Be a silent productive member of the team
You're only here to fulfill our needs
You're only here to bleed…
