BEHIND THE SWALLOWING SHADOW
ENCASING WALLS OF GREY
LIES A PSYCHO LOGICAL DECAY
SO UNBEARABLE
THIS THOUGHT SO DEPRAVED
FOLDING IN ON MYSELF
TO THE IMAGERY
FOR ALL THE HATE
MY HEART STILL AWAITS
FOR ALL THE HATE
TO FIND MY EMBRACE

From that moment
You were conceived
A battle to maintain
An equilibrium is
sustained Intuitively
A required response
Masked in false pretense
Clouded perspectives
And terrible ordeals
Too far in one direction
Will turn it against you
The hardest lessons to learn
Are the ones you already know
You cant help it
In the moment
The evil that lives within
Each and every one of us
Must be allowed to exist
if only so that the good in us
can know what it is
and how to prevail
Our line will continue on
Living against time

Is it wrong what I believe
Rationalized immorality
I wonder restlessly
About what might be
We've stopped looking up
For something to trust
But we need it desperately
Not to be found in humanity
Passed down for millennia
Mother to daughter
Father to son
A culture of inclusion
No matter how insane
We have mistook the
Sophic nature of
Our musings
And conflated them with
Our fear of the unknown

Time has had it's way with you
I see it in your face
Existence has you duped
Believing even without a trace
Are we such vile creatures
As to not possess a divine capacity?
You have not been given
Authority over me
My ego has been beaten
So much that there's no shame
Nothing can hold me back
Meditation helped me
I discovered the secret
To my own rule
A rule you can bend and twist
A rule you can put to your own ends
No rule should be
The only message you send
Don't try to put your life
Ahead of me my friend

I'm trying to work out something here
A thing that leaves me gripped with fear
I'm struggling to acknowledge
The dark distortion
The pain contorts my heart
I lost the brightened path ahead
In the glare of friends gone dead
Eventually we'll all be
A forgotten story
A distant memory
A shamanistic heralding
A choral voice of one singing
I must stop and hear them
Responding to all
My sick repulsive thoughts
I'm trying to work out something here
The thing that drowns me in my tears
My friends you've left me down here
Wondering more and
Every day is dark

You don't need to give away all your love for me
But I'm moving faster through potentiality
In time you'll know where I've gone to be
Did you ever wonder why I spoke of harmony
Am i guilty of holding you too close to me
I think there's a reason I've separated you from me
I can't linger any longer
No i can't linger any longer
It's a little bit complicated
Being alone no where to call home
It might be a little hard to take it
After I've gone and left you alone
I can't control the things on which we both agree
But I have some measure of response ability
There were times I strayed beyond your sight
Times when darkness swallowed up my night
I dream of the memories of paths before me
When I should have reached out for you
One path provides relief another only grief
A joy in understanding why I dream
I can't linger any longer
No I can linger any longer
I'm a little less complicated
Do I believe attempt to deceive
Is it really so hard to fake it
It's only a need an old man's conceit

MEMORY DRIVEN Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Memory Driven was formed in 2008 by Dennis Cornelius, Chris Greenway, Timothy Mansfield, and Dave Newcombe. Based out of Oklahoma City, Memory Driven is a Doom Metal band that tests the limits of the genre by the progressive, almost experimental writing style and crushing drums with tasty fills and a monstrous sounding rhythm section. Enjoy the dark, melodic and crushing melodies that is MD. ... more

Count Raven, what more can be said than doom heads you need this. Count Raven has always put out jaw dropping traditional doom and still does, this album is also destined to be considered a stone cold classic, what more can be said than buy Doom Heads!!!!!!!!!

I can’t believe I’m just now finding this band. I lucked into finding them by reading an old interview with The Skull members Eric Wagner, Ron Holzner, and Jeff Olson (All three formerly of Trouble, too). They’ve been broken up for almost a decade now. Such a shame; they should have and still should be HUGE! The vocalist has some amazing pipes! If you listen to the first song and don’t buy it, it’s quite possible you have zero taste when it comes to heavy music.
