(Song Series V) - Why I wrote 'Unborn'

This songs is from the viewpoint of a aborted child. It starts off with the dreams and hopes of this individual if it had been born and ends with the pain of the abortation. Partly this song is inspired by the american band Barren Cross and their song 'Killers of the Unborn'. This is a really hard issue to discuss since it has so much to do with guilt. We in Daevidius always think all are equal in the eyes of God and that no sin or action can't be forgiven and the scars coming with our actions can be healed.

Therefore; all life should be protected at any age. Celebrate Life!

God Bless!

(This i the 5th song in the series)

*****

Created a moment ago a token of life laid down 
In my mind plans take form blueprints for my coming crown 
I will see the trees grow tall I will see the snowflakes fall 
I will fulfill all my quest Before I lay my head to rest 

In my heart and soul I am free as a bird 
Flying in the skies I'll never die 
All dreams come true They always do 
Invincible I am living in dreamland 

Life is so unfair to me 
this was not meant to be 
I am the unborn going to die
I am the unborn can't you hear my cry 
I am the unborn see my tears 
I am the unborn feel my fear 
I am the unborn I am the unborn 
And I will disappear 

In my mind the flame is burning bright 
why are you stealing my life away 
I live for the hope of another day 
I know only one way please let me stay 

Life is so unfair...

Something strange going on a dreadful fear 
Someone is coming to end my life 
My light slowly fades as I take my last breath 
This is it 
Now Ill never know what Ive would have become 

Out of the vomb I am coming for my doom 

Am I a child Am I a feutus 
I am the unborn Scattered and torn 
I am the unborn I was never born 
Nothing worth thrown away in a can 
I am the unborn unborn I am 
and I will disappear

(Song Series IV) - Why I wrote 'Leave me Alone'

It is one of these songs I wrote back in 2006. The lyrics in itself is a story about someone who is about to die under gunpoint. He knows in his heart that even if he dies he will get his revenge. It is not about being a zombie or something like that, no it is about always be ready to meet our Maker.

The motiva behind the song is always to be ready. What we saw we will reap. Always be helpful towards those in need. Ask God how to help out in your community.

God bless!

Here I am on my knees 
in my eyes there is no lies 
want to run can not rise 
evil eyes look at me 

plead for life set me free 
but they just laugh at me 
lying there in the dirt 
tread on me I am hurt 

hit by hit blow by blow 
still alive I dont know 
fade away I fade away 
can not die in the street 

want to live not like this 
I feel life in heart and head 
in my veins power rising 
and I rise from the dead 

leave me alone leave me alone 
leave me alone leave me alone 

What you saw is what you reap 
run and flee on fast feet 
what youve done will be known 
you will lose be run down 

Can not touch me are you afraid 
I´ll come back I will return 
sweet Revenge will soon come 
Judgement day justice be done

Yet another path tread upon

Tonight, one of my best friends came over with his acoustic guitar. We took a cup of coffee and shared some songs. We are about to tread just another path on our  musical journey. It is really not Daevidius at all but it doesn't matter. Just a teaser, we will be working together now in the future. This will be exiting!

God bless!

(Song Series III) - Why I wrote 'The Demon and The Angel'

Some years ago, in 2010, I divorced my wife. This was due to many reasons. And the fact was, and in some ways still is, mostly on my part. Problems occured and was present during my marriage that never was dealt with, primarly due to us dont knowing what was causing the drama.

Shortly afterwards I wrote the song 'The demon and The Angel'.

The song is about two central themes:
1. A relation turning bad with a lot confussion of what to do.
2. The battle between good and evil.

The first theme is pretty obvious I think. The other one is pretty subtile. The first two verses is from the demons perspective; just leave me alone, I want to torment you angel, confused but still clear in his mind that the angel is superior and can smite him down any second. Still he knows in his mind the battle is lost but he still wants to carry on. And in the third verse you can see this quite clear. He wants to reach for freedome but realize the case is lost in reality. And the third verse really implies more to the first theme.

(This is the 3rd song in this serie)

I feel bad but if I make you feel worse I feel better.
Push you to the edge until you bleed
Cant take it anymore settle the score.
Click inside hit outside
Begin to do what I dont want.
You come to close I can not see
Until it creeps I run for the door.

You say no this is it Its gotta stop and turn around.
I start to panic losing control
Going out of my mind losing my soul.
You say go leave me now
Im tired of your lies we are through.
Down on my knees begging you please
Dont leave me now I love you.

The demon and the Angel
The demon and the Angel
The demon and the Angel
The demon and the Angel

Abuse you as I abuse me will it ever stop till I drop
Noone look inside to find out pain
A way to heal my heart is all in vain
I stand up on my feet the time has come for a change
Your love grow strong I can not run
Until I am free I reach for the sun

The Demon and the Angel...

God Bless!

Psalm 33:3 - Play it loud!

I read the Bible this morning. And there was a beautiful message to us all Metal Heads and Songwriters (the scripture is from Psalm 33:3):

Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully [on the strings] with a loud and joyful sound.

So let us all celebrate this weekend by writing songs and play it loud! And sing songs to God on full volume!

And by the way; the last two songs is in process to be completed, hopefully this weekend. Soon we can begin to record new songs.

Be loud! Play it loud!

God Bless!

(Song Series II) - Why I Wrote 'Traveller'

Do you remember the song 'Stranger in a strange Land' by Iron Maiden (from the album 'Somewhere in time' (1986))? This is partly one leg of the inspiration of the lyrics of this song, 'Traveller'. Another inspiration for the song 'Only Visiting this planet' by Larry Norman (R.I.P.). The theme, in a very sublime way, that we are only strangers here. We can not find what we are looking if we are not looking to the true source, the creator of all we see, God Father of All. If we look to other places we can find some kind of relief but we will still be wanting. And we still will be longing for some other place after we have reached what we thought we searched for.

God Bless!

(This is the second song in these series)

*****
Ive searched all my life for a place to belong 
but nowhere I found a place to call my home 
Looking for answers in the wind 
no one could tell me where to begin 

Around the world on dusty roads we've travelled 
so many faces in the crowd so cold still the show go on on and on 
Cant remember the good and bad we've done

A traveller I am on a quest for freedome 
A traveller I am in my heart i believe 

Wonder in my heart will my search ever stop 
it is hard to settle down to give up 
somehow everything gonna be alright 
As long as I keep on Im gonna fight 

A traveller I am on a quest for freedome 
A traveller I am in my heart i believe

An old friend comeback

Just the other week I sent an oldfashioned letter to a friend of mine who I have not seen in many years. He is a brilliant guitarplayer and a wonderful person to be with. And to my happiness he sent me a text tonight. He is keen on teaming up again. Lets pray and see where this will lead us.

God Bless!
