lyrics

Siren tongues have found me lost
Under and over the crest of an empire
Deeply entrenched in a realm disenchanted
In a kingdom of everlasting violence
And medicated ways to behave

Deplete the fields and pastures
Produce a fraction of false security
made to bow
to the arrows of 6000 years of defeat.

Welcome to
The edge staring back at you
we’ve had no time to lick our wounds
Before another cut down and back in the dirt

So what is this all a cure for?
The next moment contingent on the unknown
No more use in this cellar
It hasn’t kept me safe from the storm

I feel the serpent coil..
And suffocate my terror

Proclaim no masters!
Just a bastard with nothing left to lose
An orphan searching for heritage
Between the lines and scars
No allegiance!
A vow to insurgence.

Run! Run! Run!

Walking onward without a name
I want to be cleansed from it all
Every of trace of social order gone.

Welcome to
The edge staring back at you
we’ve had no time to lick our wounds
Before another cut and put in the dirt.

To whom it may concern
Come west with me..
To the heirloom hills
We’ll run as far as we can
Away from this place
Far away this barren wasteland.

As Oceans Boone, North Carolina

The North Carolina metal group As Oceans has been described as crushing and furious with a unique take on heavy music. Earth-moving guitar riffs paired with vicious vocals and pounding drums, As Oceans grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. As Oceans’ music hauntingly fits with what is alluded through their name; a force of vast power and infinite mystery. ... more
