lyrics

Obligations lose their sense
Everything is so intense
People drift away once more

One emerging from the air
Stillness rises everywhere
Walking through an image door
Have you wondered why there is “behaviour”?
Property is theft, you selfish fuck

Have you ever thought about …
Have you ever thought about the rest?
Question all abilities
Total loss of self-confidence

You are alone and your heart seems pointless
Find the truth, before it fades
Have you wondered why there is no saviour?
I believe you’re through, you’re out of luck

Sitting all alone
In a corner thrown
Barren to the bone
Still reacting to your voice
Tried to run away
Not a word to say
Living day to day
What has happened to the noise?

Have you ever thought about …
Have you ever thought about the rest?
Question all abilities
Total loss of self-confidence

Read the lines that made no sense
Prima causa, primum ens
Nowhere to go, I’m stuck in here

Every day I have regrets

Sitting all alone
In a corner thrown
Barren to the bone
Still reacting to your voice
Tried to run away
Not a word to say
Living day to day
What has happened to the noise?
Condemnation
Complication
Confrontation
What has happened to the noise?
Contribution
Revolution
The solution
Still reacting to your voice

about

Shrine of August Herent, Belgium

Shrine of August is the solo project of Belgian drummer / songwriter Steve Vanderperren. After many years playing various genres, the time was right to bring together all ideas and influences from his musical beginning till today. To sum it all up, the term "Prog Noir" came up. Progressive elements will definitely remain, but the emphasis is on the music itself, not necessarily its technicality. ... more
