Build Not Destroy
07:12
|
|||
Verse:
The sky falls grey
Fall the battery acid rain
We feel from the pain
It penetrates our skin
Don't look up at the sky
Avoid contact with your eyes
Or in a flash
Now forever blind
The green dies out
Animals migrate south
Feel wind from the wings
Soar as it stings
Just stay inside and hide
As long as it'll last
Watch it burn through society
So Fast
Pre-Chorus:
Take shelter from this mess
Before it tears us apart
Chorus:
We're taught to Build Not Destroy
We're supposed to stand up to the ploy
Without control over our own minds
We let them take our lives
Now look
All we loved left void
Verse:
The Earth fights back
In a nervous attack
Wonder what is humanities next plan
The skies turn black
Thunder begins to roll
In this timeless track
Of natures real control
The lightning strikes
Sends shockwaves all around
Watch as other creatures
Stay close to the ground
The fires start to burn
The fear becomes real
Have we done too much
Can our home
Not Heal?
Pre-Chorus:
We brought this on ourselves
Chorus:
We're taught to Build Not Destroy
We're supposed to stand up to the ploy
Without control over our own lives
We let them take our minds
Now look
All we loved left void
Mid-8:
The sky has fallen!
-
-
We brought it to the ground!
- Solo -
We brought this on ourselves
Mutilated natures cells
All the time we hear their cries
The suffering brought unto them
Through our lies!
Through our lies!
We brought this on ourselves
-Break-
Final Chorus:
You were supposed to Build Not Destroy
You chose to suck up to the ploy
(Pain not easing)
Without control over our own minds
We let them take our lives
Now look
All we loved left destroyed
-
We're supposed to Build Not Destroy
We're supposed to Build Not Destroy
We're supposed to Build Not Destroy
And now it's all destroyed!

Hallow
05:55
|
|||
Verse:
Alright
I think I'm done wasting time
Just sitting around
Watching people die
I've taken all I can of corruption
It's time I start my disruption
Chorus:
Hallow feel our pain
Hallow through your reign
Hallow come to save
Hallow till your grave
Verse:
(What will you do now?)
I'm done!
You think yourself above the rest
You're just super self-obsessed
The rage from what you take
Left nothing for what we make
You create the hate all by yourself
You've secured your own place in hell
Chorus:
Hallow feel our Pain
Hallow through your reign
Hallow come save
Hallow till your grave
Mid-8
-
Never at peace
Never truly at ease
Will you ever face the truth
Or will you just hide
Like you have through your entire life
-
The grief
The loss
The hate
The death
Is all on you
-
You reap what you sow
You reap what you sow
You reap what you sow
You reap what you sow
-
You reap what you sow
(Every little bit)
You reap what you sow
(Every last bit)
You reap what you sow
(Everything you take)
You reap what you sow
(Everything you've raped!)
-
Our rights
Our lives
Even how we get to fucking die
It's all your choice
Verse:
I know no one will care
But no longer can I just stare
Oh no!
I know things are never gonna change
It doesn't matter that we see what you play
Cling to your selfish ways of the old
Satan's gonna laugh when you're put in a hole!
Chorus:
Hallow feel our pain
(Feel our pain)
Hallow through your reign
(Through your reign)
Hallow come to save
(Come to save)
Hallow till the day
(Till your day)
Hallow till your grave
Hallow till your grave
Hallow till your grave
Hallow

Trainwreck
04:10
|
|||
Verse:
I'm outta my depth and I feel strange
Open to all the world and I feel ashamed
Is this why they all decide to get high
Is this why it's so early that they die
Chorus:
This is why we're all upset
We don't know it's a TrainWreck
This is time filled with regret
When will this depression end?
Sometime now
Verse:
All the attention and critique
From dossers, posers and fakes
They'll never quite get it
That I'm just the way that I am
They say that I'm different
Yet I dared even speak
They judge me based on what meets the eye
Never whats inside
Chorus:
This is why I'm so depressed
You just can't get over yourself
You just think you're something right
Who the fuck gave you the right
To judge me
In just your eyes
When you've never met me in your life
Your times gone
You're only one
Reduced lonely scum on a TrainWreck
When will it come?
Mid-8:
You
Let
Us
All
Down
Down!
Down!!
Verse:
Crash smash
Crush Bash
And destroy
I get you're left with just no choice
Nevermind the damage you cause
To each other and yourselves
Justice Justice Justice
Must be served
Fair unfair
Unfair fair
How the fuck are we supposed to make it work?
Chorus:
This is why you're all depressed
Your advice is beyond shit
Sure bet violence gets you far
They'll see you as nothing behind bars
When will you see
The idiocy
That you show is beyond a joke
Is there just air
Inside your head
You must just see the TrainWreck
Why stop now

Art In The Sand
06:04
|
|||
Verse:
Art In The Sand
So temporary
It'll never last
All great ideas and vows to love
Now all in the past
We save a memory in our minds
For it'll be gone come sunrise
This we cannot stop
For this is her way
Pre-chorus
Down with the sun
Up with the tide
Chorus:
Every child has joy in life
Playing within the grains
But when the weather comes to gripe
It tears apart their dreams
There's no rest for the cruel
And natures a cruel beast
And no matter where you land you'll be pain struck
And stricken with the grief
Verse:
In a place so unforgiving
And barely fit for purpose
Again, we land
Deep in the sand
No time to see
And no time to wonder
We must find a way out
And escape this hell
Lest the winds take over
And rush our way
There will be no art today
Chorus:
Creatures choose to live their lives
Buried beneath the grains
And when the weather comes to gripe
They bury ever so deep
There's no rest for the wicked
Natures a wicked beast
No matter where you land you'll be pain struck
And stricken with the grief
Mid-8:
-
- Solo -
This is not your world
This is not your place
What I give to you
I can easily take away
Verse:
Now that you know
Now that you realise
Is it time for change
One life don't just throw it away
Don't understand why the rest should pay
Time to give back the owed land
Don't just bury your head in the fucking sand
What the hell is it with you?
-
Don't just hide
We won't believe your lies
Pre-chorus
You hide
Behind
The art that you create
You lie
Inside
And fear there's no escape
If you
Should choose
To turn
Evade
Then fear the reaper that our mother has made
Chorus:
There comes a time in all our lives
When we must turn from the grain
Go against what we thought was right
It must be done today
There isn't much time left
For time to be
Not just for humanity
Everything you see
Shall cease!

Unremarkable
06:50
|
|||
Verse:
I wish I could fly over
And see you from here
I wish I could enter your mind
So you think and I hear
What's really going on
Inside your head?
Is this really how
You see yourself?
Pre-chorus
Well that's not how it seems to me
Chorus:
Oh yanno what I think, what I say
You're Unremarkable
And I just love to see
How you try to be just like me
Yanno what I think, I think, I say
You're Unremarkable
And that ain't the end of it
That's something you'll never hear
Verse:
Oh I hear the excrement
Coming from your mouth
Watch you try control a crowd
How easy it goes south
It's proof to us all
Just how fake you really are
Nevermind what you say now
We all see your true self
Chorus:
Oh yanno what I think, what I say
You're Unremarkable
And I just love to see
How you try to be just like me
Yanno what I think, I think, I say
You're Unremarkable
And that ain't the end of it
That's something you'll never hear
Mid-8
[Break]
Final Chorus:
Oh yanno what I think, what I say
You're Unremarkable
And I just love to see
How you are nothing like me
Yanno what I think, I think, I say
You're Unremarkable
And that ain't the end of it
You'll never hear the end
Yanno what I think I say
You'll never hear the end
No that ain't the end of it
You will never hear the end!

Pain In Faith
06:06
|
|||
Verse:
I’ve often looked in wonder
Questioned all the reasons
Do you ever stop to ponder
What is it that makes you a believer
Is it to know that you are right
Is it to get to see the light
Is this really why you fight
For the answer to when you die
-Tell me a story, Bet that’ll change my mind-
I’ve listened to tales of wise men
Travelling so far for their god
Putting themselves through agony
Don’t you ever see the irony
With all the hate and pointless rhetoric
With all your constant judging
Who’s wrong or right, Who gets to see light
Find enlightenment through your own high
-Pre-chorus-
Chorus:
I never got the point in life
Living it all like a game
Having rules fed to you
As if you don’t have a say
But I guess that’s just what happens
When you put Pain In Faith
Maybe I ain’t as enlightened as you
But I know what I know
Verse:
I didn’t need a god to get here
I feel shit
This whole place should just disappear
Right out my eyes
Right outta my sight
But still playing on my mind
How can you deal the hand of hate
Others have suffered their own pain
And our fate is yet to come in time
Who are you to decide who’s right
Pre-chorus:
Who wants to believe
We never coming back
Chorus:
I never got the point in life
Living it all like a game
Having rules fed to you
As if you don’t have a say
But I guess that’s just what happens
When you put Pain In Faith
Maybe I ain’t as enlightened as you
But I know one thing
I’m still here
Mid-8:
In your face
-
Despite your disgrace
-
It’s ruined lives
Don’t you see
It’s the biggest collection
Of lies!
You will never understand
-
Any of the pain
-
Over a century
Of suffering!
[Solo]
[Break]
Don’t you see
The Hell is caused
By ignorance
And absence
Of a world
Trapped down
Pinned to the ground
Totally removed
Of right a mind sound
Chorus:
I never got the point in life
Living it all like it’s the same
Having holy rules fed to you
All you have to do is inhale
But I guess that’s just what happens
When you put Pain In Faith
Maybe I ain’t as enlightened as you
But neither of us knows
What happens when we
Die!

For Who Knows
07:30
|
|||
Verse:
Nomads and wise guys
Tales of tall times
Visions of future
Visions of power
There’s someone looking
For the answer
No one knows
Whatever will happen
Chorus:
Everyone has tried but no one is yet to succeed
Tale as old as time
But an answer is yet to be seen
Verse:
Look forward through time
Explain the answer
Illusions of power
Illusion of future
How can we know
If there’s a grand plan
A greater purpose
A reason to stand
Chorus:
Everyone has tried but no one is yet to succeed
Tale as old as time
But an answer is yet to be seen
Mid-8
-
-
—:
For countless millennia we’ve pondered this Earth
Searching for our greater purpose
Look through the lense of time
We hope to find our kind
Searching for life’s reason
Yet discovered!
-
-
-
Yet Discovered!
Final Chorus:
So I’ll say it once
Just like it’s been said before
But what the future holds
Well For Who Knows!

Dust In The Wind
03:24

[Intro]
Verse:
I walk the road
My life overshadowed
I’ve slipped so far
I can’t get back
My nerves are froze
My mind on overload
Addiction breathing on
Taken over waiting for dawn
Chorus:
And I realise it is me
Who takes away from me
I know now how far I’ve gone
Not started I’m already done
I eat and breathe struggling I feel like
Dust In The Wind
I never knew how much I wanted this to end
Verse:
I feel the cold
Air frozen on the road
I’ve slipped so far
What have I done
My minds so numb
Thoughts blank
I’ve become undone
Not at peace
Left screaming my desperate pleas
Chorus:
And I realise it is me
Who takes away from me
I know now how far I’ve gone
Not started I’m already done
I eat and breathe struggling I feel like
Dust In The Wind
I never knew how much I wanted this to end
Mid-8:
Please End
Please End
Please
End
Verse:
I’ve lost too much
The others and myself
I’m undone
Ready to pop
Can’t stop
I’m in agony
Perpetual spikes dig through me
Hiding the pain my heart burns
My heart hurts
My heart burns
My heart hurts
I’m done!
Chorus:
And I realise it is me
Who takes away from me
I know now how far I’ve gone
Not started I’m already done
I eat and breathe struggling I feel like
Dust In The Wind
I never knew how much I needed this to end

Overview
05:37
|
|||
Verse:
In the end I see
The peace is lost within me
I struggle to get to sleep
I struggle to even eat and breathe
My mind is racing I try to slow it down
Everyone has their fears
My biggest is that I’ll drown
Chorus:
It takes time to have an overview
Hindsight’s there always so right
Which will I do if I choose
Which way should I take this life
What will I do if I lose?
Verse:
I’ve said it once before
My body’s starting to give
I think it’s trying to tell me
One final warning
A last message
I must see as it is
And change it
Before I throw it away
One last chance I am given
To make something of this
Before my last day
Chorus:
Whenever it is will be an overview
Maybe a chance to see my point of view
Maybe that’s when you’ll listen
When it’s too late to be given
A chance to have been different
Mid-8:
Let me breathe
Let me think
Please
Just give me a
Break!
Break-in:
And now that you see
Maybe it’s not too late
To change what’s inside
Chorus:
I believe my overview is complete
I’ve seen all there is to see for me
And I
Accept my place in this world
And what I make of it
Is all you’ll have when I’m gone

Nothingness
06:15
|
|||
Verse:
The air is thick
I feel the heat
My throat hurts
I’m struggling to breathe
Deprived of rest
My head it burns
Always waiting for myself to turn
I feel betrayed
I feel let down
And it’s not because of you
My body’s failing me
And my mind too
Chorus:
Broken and scared
Reduced to Nothingness
Body is failing
Like there’s nothing left
Am I seeing it wrong
Saying it wrong
Which mistake was it
That left me feeling like this
Verse:
Feel numb deep inside
Struggle with things I hide
Agonise myself through pain
Loneliness is all I’ve gained
Deny addiction in myself
Isolated in my hell
Guess there’s really no escape
From what’s on my brain
(It breathes in me)
-
(It lives within me)
-
(It’s always there)
-
(Even when I)
(Smile)
Chorus:
Broken and scared
Reduced to Nothingness
My mind is failing
Like there’s nothing left
Am I seeing it wrong
Saying it wrong
Which mistake was it
That left me faced up against
Mid-8:
Everything!
[Break]
-
Scrutinised
Patronised
Into where
Where from now
Obsolesce
Can I go
From what is now
(Rise from)
Final Chorus [Solo] :
Nothingness!!

My name is Jim Preece, I’m a multi-instrumental musician from the Shropshire area that started off trying something new for
me, which was more ambient material.
However thanks to some time out, I decided to really hunt for what I wanted to do. And it’s simply: METAL!
Thank you to all that have waited patiently and enjoyed what little I have put out so far.
I PROMISE - THERE’S MORE TO COME
