Its an acoustic rock/metal track i put together a while ago. I'm normally ok at writing lyrics but i've really been struggling with this one. Any hoo...let me know what you think, and if anyones got suggestions for lyrics or wants to have a bash at recording vocals that would be awesome-o!

Nice tune indeed. I'm not in the market myself for writing lyrics for ya, but I'm sure there will be someone here who might take a wack at it. But definitely liked the tune.

Very pretty song. It sounds like the kind of tune that Neil Peart could write lyrics for, between times that he reserves for creating more creases in his forehead. Best of luck to you.

Thankyou both for taking the time to respond.
I've listened to the track so many times through writing it, recording it and finally trying to write lyrics for it that i've started to dislike it!

Thanks again for not saying it sucks, I might just have one more bash at the lyrics myself, before I pull all my hair out and resort to stalking Neil Peart!

Obviously if anyone wants to give the vocals a go themselves feel free.

Take it easy.

Nice piece. Some of the timing seems a little off, making a few parts kinda hard to listen to. Nice work though, certainly sounds like a epic ballad of some sort.

unfortunately, i'm a tank for writing lyrics. sorry.

ive listend a few times- but i keep feeling spinal-tap issh. till that feeling goes i cant be too serious, but- this is what a scribbled on the 2nd listen (putting away the nasty spinal tap thoughts, like "Medieval Candy canes, eating my teeth and coming for my brain" or "Acient Thor God of war, sees small men, knocks them down again and again"

Maybe this will help-

i see your blue moon, moaning against the night
starring at the sky above, will it all end... alright

i see our helping hand, holding back the sun
let us fly away from here, oh let us be the one

ill be your dream believer
if youll be my wine
ill be the true deciever
if youll be mine

im so tired, of waistin away
lets go, and let it shine shine

ill be your dream believer
if youll be my wine
ill be the true deciever
if youll be mine

Thankyou muchly for your reply...The lyrics you've suggested are great, and seem to sit well with the track, i'll definately try recording them!

I always seem to get stuck with power metal lyrics lol...."raise your broadswords!"

"Acient Thor God of war, sees small men, knocks them down again and again" Truely inspired lyrics...they deserve to be used!

When i get something recorded i'll post it here so you can have a listen.

Thanks again.

(soft acoustic medieval sounding)
spoken: The ancient gods, of power immeasurable-
decatant life that power grants
(heavy melodic medieval)

ancient Thor, god of war-
ancient Thor, god of war-
Stomping around the heavens,
more small men, more small men
to knock down again, and again



ancient Thor, god of war
What are you looking for
Aphrodite teases man
Zeus rules with an iron hand
Posiden tames the sea
and Hades in the darkness is free


ancient Thor, god of war-
Stomping around the heavens,
more small men, more small men
to knock down again, and again

So thor where do you fit in
This isn't a game you can win
all the good god stuff is taken
so stop that hammer shakin

(now change song to acoustic strumm)

I am thor, god of war
but i won't make the war no more
Knitting is the thing for me
While i watch the BBC


ancient Thor, God of knitting
Creation of sweaters, kind of loose fitting
Make great gifts, all made while i was sitting
Watching the BBC
