LYRICS:
In the ancient forest's grasp, where decay's scent lingers,
Life pulses ominously, soil clinging to bones.
Trees reach high, like entwined skeletal hands,
Fighting for the last light in this life.
Feel the soil slipping through your fingers.
Nature's silent conquest, bringing all to its knees.
Chorus:
Nature's gasping breath, in the abyss it's spawned,
Macabre life's cycle, in shadows it's dawned.
Instincts scream, lost in the wild's grasp,
Fear binds like an eerie ghost.
In the twilight's haunting glow, where shadows intertwine,
Whispers of ancient spirits, through the twisted vines.
Eerie symphony of night, as the wind wails and moans,
Nature's dance of terror, in cryptic undertones.

Yet another FIRE song Anni! No idea how hard / easy it'd be to come into the USA to play, but I have some knowledge of places to go for venues if you go on tour soon?

[@Annimetal]

Thanks for asking! Right now, a tour isn't possible for us as we’re not doing live shows yet. But who knows what the future holds? We appreciate your support!

​@@Annimetal I'm hoping a tour between you, my friend Kristian Band "Fires In The Distance" who you may like where they do melodic death, possibly the band Tower & possibly the band Castle Rat can all go in a tour together here in the USA

[@eventsotherthingswithchris9019]

​​@@Annimetal kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIHEY5WarZhniMUsi=_0v7vQcGcYzJseuQ My Friend Kristian's band "Fires In The Distance". Am hoping you & them can hook up & do some shows!! That'd be awesome AF!

[@eventsotherthingswithchris9019]

​@@Annimetalkzbin.info/www/bejne/g2PSXoSZa86tZ5Isi=UKwvxhVvzsZq3oXu This is the band "Tower" who're blowing up around here in my area. More Old School metal but maybe if you like them enough, reach out & hook up on a tour?

​@@Annimetalkzbin.info/www/bejne/mXSwlGqsj7yod80si=dPv7NozePh0O67OH Sasha Paeth produces for EPICA, NIGHTWISH & others. He & somebody else I met from the band Seven Spires did a collab. You may have heard of or somehow know Adrienne Cowan from either place? Anyway, just more folks to try & hook up with for a US tour or even out where you are?
