Down In Flames
we are in the middle of the days they call the end of times
finger on the button flashing red to kill a billion lives
some would say that it's too late to look around and realize
extinction is upon us and yet we don't even hear the cries
advertise, consume, consume, until there's nothing left alive
rape and pillage mother earth then burn her down and cast aside

I'm not in the habit of naming my guitars, but GinNger thought
this one should be called "Pearl," and I think that is perfect!


bought on 9-11-09. 8 years later. And my favorite number is 8.
Funny how things work out.

Descending from the mountains of Northern Georgia
like Hillbillies from Hells Gates, OUR SANCTUM
is an onslaught of Metal Mayhem that breaks the
chains of traditional metal, and leaves an impression
that you will not soon forget.
From the emotional torment of FIRE WITHIN, to the
brooding darkness of HERETIC DEMISE, they paint
a torn and desolate landscape of destruction, blood red.
Downtuned rhythms tear up the ground, while the lead
guitar weaves melodies that summon the long dead
from their…

Emerging from their INNER SANCTUM like a Force of Nature--relentless
and unstoppable--OUR SANCTUM uses their FIRE WITHIN to open HELLS
GATES.
From the pounding drums and rhythm guitar, to the tormented screams, to the
shredding lead guitar mayhem, their brutal and aggressive sound will raise the
hair on the back of your neck, and have you head-banging for more.
Gothic, Unreal, Primal, and Original. All of these describe a Metal Band
unlike any you have seen before. The rhythms and melodies swir…

she thinks: "you should love only me"
he thinks: "that's not the way love works"
she thinks: "unless you say you love me constantly I don't want to have sex"
he thinks: "without sex, I'm not saying I love you anymore"
she thinks: "you never talk to me"
he thinks: "you don't listen"
she thinks: "why didn't you tell me about her?"
he thinks: "it was before I met you. it's none of your business"
she thinks: "you're in love with someone else"
he thinks: "yes"
she thinks: "how could you get clos…

Have you ever held your love as she breathed her last
breath, tears running down your face, salty on your lips?
The pain filling you to overflowing as you watch the light
fade from her eyes.
As bad as that is, it is far better than finding her cold,
lifeless body, missing her last breath, and the chance to
say goodbye forever.
I was too late.
That night I met him in my dream. He said he was me, but from
the future. He said his name was Thaedeus. He told me things
that later came true.
This i…

I am currently rewriting chapter 28 of 43, and it is
going well. I have 23 characters running around to keep
track of, and some cool magical monsters.
The bad guys are called 'The Triad' and are after the
crystals and the heroine Larissya.
Some of the good guys just got swallowed by the Ulchra
which is a huge monster that lives in a lake.
I had a revelation and figured out the legend behind the
story, and where everything is going, and why there are
two moons in the sky.
I should finish rewr…

Well, I don't remember when I started the damn thing, but I remember that it was
while Catherine was still at Target. Yeah, that long ago!
So, I guess I took a few years off. Not that I wasn't busy. I wrote over one-hundred
songs during those years. Closer to two-hundred actually.
It's called The Crystal Warrior, and it's essentially a story about a young girl thrust
into a dangerous adventure by fate. When I stopped working on it I had completed
forty-three chapters (around 49,000 words).
I…

I could tell by the look in its unblinking eye that it wanted to eat me--and not just gulp me down either. Grind me between its double-rows of serrated teeth, perhaps, or suck my fluids out until I was a shriveled bag of skin.
Much as that appealed to me--as I remembered that finals were tomorrow--I ran.
The creature emitted a low whirring noise, and it jumped from one location to another, approaching me. It resembled a large wad of gum, with a central gaping maw, and one baleful eye. It smelled…

Blood Of My Enemies
As I stand in the blood of my enemies
and I see the future as it will be
and the lightning is raining down on me
the pain and the sparks give me energy
my arms they are stretched up into the night
and the sky it is dark with the souls in flight
and the ground starts to shake in the pouring rain
and the crys of the dead they are in my brain
And the sword of…

Another new Gotham Steel song.
Simple, but I really like how it sounds....
give me one reason to live
give me two reasons to die
give me one taste of your lips
give me two bites of your thigh
yes I'm ready to die
yes I'm ready to live
yes I'm ready to fly
yes I will never cry
give me one reason to be
give me two reasons to see
give me one look in your eye
give me two shudder…

Another song based on a poem by Jackie.
Experimental Electronic this time (not as heavy):
Strange Whispers
Strange whispers call in the night
telling me that I need to leave
I don't know where I am in Life
I am wandering lost and confused
I am silenced by all my fears
numb and locked in a state of confusion
I have somehow crossed over and
lost all hope in a vanishing land
Mocking voic…

Kind of a Strange World Anthem. Based on the poem
by Jackie. VERY HEAVY
I walk through the shadows of the night
fear is pounding in my heart again
I have reached a realm of no return
I have crossed into a strange world
the keepers of lost souls, have
the keepers of lost souls, have
the keepers of lost souls, have
found me and I'm never coming back
those that rule here will erase your mi…

Wrote this song a couple years ago. It just stopped
being true tonight. Smile.
Just another day in the NeoCon Haze
Where they tell us what to think
I think I need a drink
They're trading blood for oil
They're in bed with Saudi Royals
Yeah they sold their souls for profit
and only we can stop it
They're tapping all my phones, yeah
they can't leave me alone, no
They're s…

the bomb doesn't see right from wrong
as it screams earthward in one long song
it doesn't dismember based on race, or sex, or creed, or pretty face
it doesn't single out the good, or even wonder if it should
the bomb is just an angel of death, cloaked in silver, stealing breath
sent by devils, human-skinned, full of vice and packed with sin
eagerly they summon death, and rain it down until they win
and as the innocent souls ascend, looking down, they pity them
