This one isn't based on the tune of any song; I plan on doing that with my buddies in a while.

Cold and frosted hands come
Grip this insanity
Choke the last remaining strands
Life ceasing to exist

Rise up and fight
Let not this eternal struggle continue
Submission brings naught
But shame everlasting

And so I slash the tethers
that bind me to misery
I rise up and conquer
Upon the gilded wings of glory
Fly ever on
Inspiring the minds
Of heroes yet to come

Cast down and trodden on
The spiked boots of my enemies
Dig ever deeper
Penetrating my skin

And so I slash the tethers
that bind me to misery
I rise up and conquer
Upon the gilded wings of glory
Fly ever on
Inspiring the minds
Of heroes yet to come

Behold! Risen! The armies of Angels cry
Unleash upon the barren land
A token of grand indulgence
An arousing masterpiece
To reforge and rearm
The soldiers of tales ancient

And so I slash the tethers
that bind me to misery
I rise up and conquer
Upon the gilded wings of glory
Fly ever on
Inspiring the minds
Of heroes yet to come

Dammit, Vanir...... I had an awesome daydream of me and Anne Hathaway on a private island. And then in the daydream you came in and murdered her, then asking for my hand in marriage.

Could you give me a basic idea of rythm so I can read it again the way you intended?

Wow, this is probably my favorite of yours so far. It's reminiscent of Muse and their new single Uprising. Great job. A lot more detailed than a lot of your other work, and less poetic. It works miracles here. :)

Wait, it's good to not be poetic?

You don't HAVE to be poetic. Though in general lyrics are poeticish.

Poetic is generic. Lame. If you want your lyrics to be like everybody else's, make them poetic. If you want them to be YOURS, do something different.

I'm still waiting on a story song. Hurry up damn you! :P

Okay, good, cuz' I'm not very good at being poetic. Anyway, do you mean a narrative song? That'd be a tiny bit difficult, but I could try.

Look up "Cornerstone" by Arctic Monkeys. Great song.
