The thunder claps,
Applauding its show.
A prayer is read,
A bell chimes the beginning of reality.
But to whom?

For the spectators, the fanatics,
Life goes on,
As it did before.
What was the mourning for
But to self-glorify.

The life is just a passing memory,
The death is a recurring memory.
Life, the one controllable factor in one's existence,
An often forgotten aspect when compared
To death.

The bell chimes
In harmony with the thunder,
Applauding its show.
What good is the memory of life
When we are alive to live it.

- w00w00 this is my first release since the break up of /\/ebul/\ :<... 
   all samples original 'cept the thunder which came from my bro and the
   crash symbal which came from necros -- aka da sample faktoree :>...  i
   had to cut down all my samples down to 8-bit to keep the file size down
   a  bit :>...  and if u were wondering, yes that voice sample of the
   funeral prayer [ which is an AWFUL waste of space :< ] is my voice,
   time stretched of coz
- hate to leave you on a morbid note for the summah, but some things just
   have to be said :>...  doubt i'll finish any tewns this summah, so
   this'll have to last joo...  keep an eye out in hornet anywayz, tho... 
   my productivity may surprise you :>
- this song runs 3:23 [ i tink ]...  mind you all of it's disorganized
   :>...  basically that's symbolic, though, of the whole theme of this
   song, which is the patchwork of stages of life and mourning into some
   sort of collage which i like to call emotional stability :>...  this is
   also one the first chances i had to work with primarily minor chords,
   however progressing into major Ab at the end -- after all doesn't life
   have a happy ending?  i dunno just thinkin and ramblin again :>
- oh btw i just realized that in my previous releases i didn't include
   e-mail address or webpage url [ which may explain why i didn't get any
   feedback? :> ]...  so here they are...  and please write, even if you
   just wanna tell me that you're emotionally unstable and my song
   persuaded you to attempt suicide, so you're going to press charges... 
   i don't really care...  just write anywayz...
