[@gaius0caligula]

This is amazing, thank you! Don't ever stop what you're doing. You've brightened a dark day for me.

[@SakisStrigas]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you feel that way!

[@GamezHere]

maynard has good lyrics in this song but sometimes i am in the mood for an instrumental version.

[@samhollins2076]

Black then white are all I see In my infancy Red and yellow then came to be Reaching out to me Lets me see. As below, so above and beyond, I imagine Drawn beyond the lines of reason. Push the envelope. Watch it bend. Over thinking Over analyzing Separates the body from the mind. Withering my intuition Missing opportunities and I must Feed my will to feel my moment Drawing way outside the lines. Black then white are all I see In my infancy. Red and yellow then came to be Reaching out to me Lets me see. There is so much more and Beckons me to look through to these Infinite possibilities. As below, so above and beyond, I imagine Drawn outside the lines of reason. Push the envelope. Watch it bend. Over thinking Over analyzing Separates the body from the mind. Withering my intuition Leaving opportunities behind. Feed my will to feel this moment Urging me to cross the line. Reaching out to embrace the random. Reaching out to embrace whatever may come. I embrace my Desire to I embrace my Desire to Feel the rhythm To feel connected Enough to step aside And weep like a widow To feel inspired To fathom the power To witness the beauty To bathe in the fountain To swing on the spiral To swing on the spiral To... Swing on the spiral of our divinity and Still be a human. With my feet upon the ground I lose myself between the sounds And open wide to suck it in I feel it move across my skin I'm reaching up and reaching out I'm reaching for the random or What ever will be wilder me What ever will be wilder me And following our will and wind We may just go where no one's been We'll ride the spiral to the end And may just go where no one's been Spiral out Keep going Spiral out Keep going Spiral out Keep going Spiral out Keep going

Thank you very much!

[@eva-jd2zg]

Just arrived from Epic math time ~ Haven't heard this Tool song previously but sticking around because your music is sick. Thanks for sharing your skill and musicality with us!

[@SakisStrigas]

Thank you so much! You are so kind!

[@eva-jd2zg]

@@SakisStrigas It's my pleasure! I love when people share their amazing musical creations, I have so much appreciation for your skill!

[@4pertur3]

Thanks so much for this. There was another one I previously used, but was wrong at the breakdown and it always threw me off. This is perfect!

[@DustinRudzinski]

This one is wrong too, the notes in the breakdown on the guitar part are in the wrong order, among other guitar mistakes. The drums are near perfect, though.

[@holodeck_cowboy]

Holy crap, that was exactly what I was looking for

[@OscarPoblete]

Awesome work man!

I'm reaching for the random or whatever will bewilder me. Whatever will bewilder me. And following our will and wind We may just go where no one's been. We'll ride the spiral to the end And may just go where no one's been. Spiral out. Keep going. [4x]

Check out this lyric parody I got bored and started writing Right And Wrong are Clear to me At the beginning Hell and heaven then showing me As a prophecy The ending Here on earth and the spirit is what I imagine Actions lead to consequences Motives stem from thought Life or death Opening multiple pathways of the different outcomes branching from our lives Entering our own ambitions Weighing opportunities and I must Redirect my strengths and weakness Step into the new design Right And Wrong are Clear to me Added to mercy Hell and heaven then showing me That you’re defending The real me The gates O Pen Up to What we sing You hear everything And responding to the song we bring Here on earth and the spirit is what I imagine Actions lead to consequences Motives stem from thought Life or death Opening multiple pathways of the different outcomes branching from our lives Entering our own ambitions Leaving opportunities behind Redirect my strengths and weakness Urging me to come to Christ. Crying out to embrace the savior Crying out to embrace the spirit that comes. I embrace the, compassionate I embrace the, compassionate sovereign savior, to be protected For him to advocate, as I weep like a widow, As I, am inspired, and I fathom the power, and witness the Beauty. And bask in his presence. He sings with a smile, sings with a smile. Sings with a smile of, our divinity, as we are both human. With our feet upon the ground, I once was lost but now am found The price he paid, To clear my sin and feel his spirit move within. I’m reaching out he’s reaching in. I’ve reached the time when life begins and with this new relationship. Yes with this new relationship. And following your will and wind, You’ll take me far where no ones been. You’re making all things new and then. You make me new and free again, I’m redeemed, you’re showing I’m made clean, keep glowing Seed of faith, keep growing. Path of light, keep Going.

Parody?

[@jimmym9947]

Bruh this is amazing

[@crazysam747]

Now you need to voice over the lyrics to this instrumental and give us the video link 🙃

[@tonyratz93]

@@crazysam747 that sounds fun and exciting. But something about it feels illegal and offensive to those who put the hard work into the instrumentals lol.

[@dushan3572]

Don't hate me How hard would it be to re-do this? The 'ride the spiral to the end' part is the emotional climax of the song and it needs to be the 5th fret power chord. Fix that and it's near perfection :D

[@SakisStrigas]

No hate at all my friend! I'm not perfect and I'm not a guitar player so maybe I will miss some details! But yes I want to remake this with lyrics. Please tell me the exact minute of the song that needs the 5th fret power chord.

[@dushan3572]

@@SakisStrigas Great to hear! Alright, there's two things - at 5:03, when Adam's clean guitar part joins in, the note on the 6th string should start on the 5th fret. In order, the pattern is 5th fret, 3rd fret, open. I don't know if you played it differently on purpose, because it still sounds nice, but if you sing along Maynard's part sounds better with the original pattern. And finally, (this is easier if you start listening from the 8:00 mark) at 8:09 - when Maynard sings 'we'll ride the spiral, to the end, and' both Adam and Justin play the riff on the 5th fret. 8:17 - when Maynard sings 'no one's been' you lead in on the 3rd fret power chord before playing that open pattern of 0-3-0 to the 'spiral out's. Hopefully that made sense!

[@SakisStrigas]

@@dushan3572 Thank you for the detailed info my friend! It will help me a lot with the remake!

Sounds similar in this instrumentation

[@DustinRudzinski]

The guitars are off, especially in the breakdown, but not bad.

[@tyvekhomewrap9164]

What was up with the bass at the end? That drove me insane

[@thegoodguy44]

It’s a bit off, but the rest is very good. Not an easy song to attempt!

Hey Sakis! This cover rocks 🤘 I also made a couple of Tool covers on my channel (check them out if you wish) ; btw, have you considered covering Septicflesh? I absolutely love them Cheers Matteo

Hi Matteo! Your covers are great! I love Septicflesh but I have no plans to cover them. Cheers! 🤘
