Bargaining over flesh to feed the greed
Turning a blind eye to evil deeds
Practicing mastership in lands
That was never yours
Who will heal?
Who will heal?
The wounds and the damage this world aches and bleeds
You won’t heal
You won’t heal
When there is money to make and power to take over
Behind your closed eyes there is your truth
Outside your own lies decays the world
And this is not an illusion
This is what’s hidden from us not to see
And this is not an illusion
Shadow Kings set nations on fire
Who will heal? The wounds that bleed
Who will heal? The damage that aches
Frothing at their mouth
When these beasts are smelling war
For profit they will call
To arms their brainwashed horde
The currency is flesh and life
But do you think you can pay the price?
And this is not an illusion
This is what’s hidden from us not to see
And this is not an illusion
Shadow Kings set nations on fire
Set nations on fire
Reap prevail denial
A very unique sound. A blender of Alice in Chains / Mike Patton vocals, with awesome riffs, some jazz for good taste. And you guys are even better live! Unique metal that is hard to come by nowadays. ljuk67
Oh my hairy balls. It suprising how these guys are still not new dark stars.
Anyhow, Apey&ThePea are precise, catchy, atmospheric, unstoppable, entertaining and yet makes you think. PeeG
