(Song Series VII) - Why I wrote 'Judgement Day'

Judgement Day is one of the oldest songs on Daevidius first album 'The Demon and The Angel'. Even though all credits for the song is on the behalf of David Dee Bee Bengtsson; in reality Anders Jönsson did a lot for this song to be as great as it became. This was first recorded on a unreleased demo back in april 2009. The solo is a first take that just came out great!

The lyrics paints a black picture and is poetic in its nature. It is subtile and no in-your-face-lyrics. There are many layers and many views. For example:
- The Guardians watching over us, They are those who pray for us and fight against the unseen evil powers.
- The men of power. Politicians and many others are working for world peace and pay no attention to whoever they make alliances with.
- All evil shall fall. When Judgement is upon us true justice will be declared.
- Messiah is supreme. Jesus Christ ends judgement day in a positive spirit when true peace will come for all.

God Bless!

*****

Raindrops of evil paints the sky black 
Planting seeds of hate in all of us 
Guardians at the wall watch us all 
But for how long will they carry on 

In these times you got to know 
Too many options which path to go 
Writings in the book are coming true
the Lords of the sky know what to do 

O o o o Judgement day 
O o Now the time has come 
O o o o Judgement day 
O o all evil shall fall 

Men of power in unholy leagues 
capture the free lead them into slavery 
proclaim they know the road ahead 
but they can't they just bring you misery 

O o o o Judgement day...

O o o o Judgement day...  

Messiah is Supreme 
Hail the king of kings 
Messiah is supreme 
Messiah is supreme

And so it begins...

Finally, we are starting recording. In the first phase we are working on the drums and bass. Or maybe I start with the synths. There is so much going on right now outside the music so I pray all pieces in the puzzle will fall into place.

And so it begins... First song started tonight is 'Gates of Hell'.

God Bless!

Yet another path tread upon Part II

Tonight yet another path is tread upon. I met up again with an old friend of me, one of the best most skillful guitarists I ever played and recorded with. He laid down some really good solos on the first album, by Daevidius 'The Demon and The Angel. His name is Anders Jönsson. We have not spoken since summer 2012.

Earlier this year it just come to my mind, it might have been God talking; why don't you contact Anders Jönsson and see if there still is some common ground? It took me about half a year before I send him an old style letter. He responded very quickly and tonight we met up. Over a cup of coffee we set the path for the time to come. And if it all fall into place it will truly be awesome! So many good ideas, so many creativity. Let us all praise God with our creativeness!

God Bless!

(Song Series VI) - Why I wrote 'Desert Land'

I believe to grow you have to die. And I don't mean psychically, but spiritually. And die to what some call the flesh. I believe in order to grow some parts of what we think is our personality has to go. And it has to be in accordance to our own will.

When we are in such a Desert Land when everything seems hopeless, there is no future just darkness. We have no hope of nothing ever changes for the better; thats the place we die. Compare with a seed. In order for the seed to became a great tree it has to die. I think in the same way we have to die away from things we think are in our personality and a part of us to become someone great. And not in a arrogant way with pride in it worst meaning.

Therefore; let us walk through the Desert Land believing there is a brighter day day, knowing God knows more than I do and He keeps me safe from harm.

God Bless!

*****

I scan the horizon watching the barren plains 
far in the distance I see a crocked tree 
The wind cries my name as I walk in the rain 
I don't know if there is a future for me 

Desert land 
Walking through desert land 
Desert land 
Living in desert land 

Boots of led and iron my legs are tired and old 
waiting for the son to come on the skies 
But right now I see no light in the dark 
Realise I built a world based on lies 

One of these days the prince of peace will rescue me 
waiting for the day to dawn O Lord set me free 

In my minds eye I dream of a better day 
Thoughts of the mind has been dark of late 
I raise my head high and in my heart I pray 
Help me O God to make it trough today 

Desert land 
Walking through desert land 
Desert land 
Living in desert land 

Desert Land 
No more Desert Land 
Desert Land No more Desert Land

(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!

*****

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!

(This i the 4th song in the series)

*****

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!
