Every Second - Mister Recoil

[Intro — Distant Chant / Drums Building] Ohhh— Ohhh— Beat the shields Sound the horns We were not fucking born To die on our knees. [HEAVY RIFF] [Verse 1 — Heavy / Driving] Black sails cutting through a violent sea Cold wind tearing at what's left of me Ravens circle underneath a blood-red sky No fucking promise that we make it out alive Hands are bleeding Wood is breaking Every wave another chance worth taking Thunder cracks The ocean roars WE ROW HARDER THAN BEFORE [Pre-Chorus — Melody Begins] When the water rises When the daylight dies When every voice inside you Says you've reached the end tonight Raise your head And face the wind If there's another mile— WE FUCKING ROW AGAIN. [Chorus — Big Clean Vocals] BEYOND THE STORM THERE'S SOMETHING MORE So raise the sails And leave the safety of the shore Through broken bones Through blood and rain We learn how much a man can lose And still rise up again Let the thunder call my name Let the whole damn ocean rage I don't need to know What waits beyond the storm— I ONLY NEED THE STRENGTH TO REACH IT [Verse 2 — Faster / Aggressive] They told us gods decide our fate Fuck that We never learned to wait Let Odin watch Let ravens fly A man decides how hard he'll fight One more mountain One more sea One more bastard saying what I cannot be Stack the odds Raise them high GIVE ME SOMETHING WORTH THE FUCKING CLIMB [Pre-Chorus] When your legs give out When your lungs ignite When you've got absolutely nothing Left inside— That's where you find out Who you are Not at the beginning— BUT WHEN YOU'VE GONE TOO FUCKING FAR. [Chorus — Big Clean Vocals] BEYOND THE STORM THERE'S SOMETHING MORE So raise the sails And leave the safety of the shore Through broken bones Through blood and rain We learn how much a man can lose And still rise up again Let the thunder call my name Let the whole damn ocean rage I don't need to know What waits beyond the storm— I ONLY NEED THE STRENGTH TO REACH IT [Bridge — Clean / Atmospheric] Someday... The ship won't leave the harbor. Someday... The sword stays on the wall. Someday my name becomes a story Told by someone I never saw. And if the gods should ask me What I did with all my days— I'll tell them— I chased the fucking horizon Until they carried me away. [Music Slowly Builds] So when that final horn is calling... I won't ask for one more year. I'll raise my drink And face the darkness— Knowing I used Every fucking second I was here. [INSTRUMENTAL — EPIC GUITAR SOLO] [Clean guitar begins over distant war drums] [First solo — melodic, emotional] [Drums gradually build] [Second half — faster lead guitar] [Harmony guitars enter] [Double-kick builds underneath] [Full-band crescendo] [Everything cuts] ... [Single drum hit] [BREAKDOWN — Slow / Crushing] WHEN THE— OARS— BREAK— USE YOUR FUCKING HANDS. WHEN YOUR— LEGS— FAIL— FUCKING CRAWL. No wind? ROW. No road? BUILD ONE. No strength? FIND SOME. And when death itself Stands between you And that fucking horizon— LOOK THAT BASTARD IN THE EYES AND TAKE ONE MORE STEP. [Final Chorus — Higher / Massive Clean Vocals] BEYOND THE STORM I SEE SOMETHING MORE RAISE THE FUCKING SAILS WE'RE NEVER TURNING TOWARD THE SHORE Through broken bones Through blood and rain You'd be surprised how much a man can lose And STILL FUCKING REMAIN Let the thunder know my name Let the heavens fucking shake I don't care how long it takes Or what the journey takes from me— I WILL GO UNTIL I HAVE NOTHING LEFT AND THEN I'LL GO ONE MILE MORE! [Gang Vocals] ONE MILE MORE! ONE MILE MORE! ONE MILE MORE! [Outro — Clean Vocals / Distant Choir] Black sails disappear Beyond the morning sun The sea grows quiet... But the journey isn't done. [Whisper] Memento mori. [Final Guitar Hit] #metal #music #ai
