Writing a TOOL Song | One Man Bands Episode 7

Hey guys! This week we're taking on the mother of all challenges by writing a song inspired by TOOL. I've been pouring over their incredible compositions and immersing myself in the outrageous musical ability of these four blokes. This was undoubtedly the most difficult track to put together but I'm so proud of how it came out, and I learnt a great deal from dissecting Tool's music.

If you want to skip straight to the song it is at 26:44

On Monday I covered Tool's track SCHISM which you can watch here - [ Ссылка ]

Memnon's Voice LYRICS:

Sand and glass foretells the rise
Grains of time fall by the side
Lifetime bound by rib and spine
Sand and glass one and the same
Stop the clock, reset the frame
Do no wrong yet fear the flame

My mother, my lover are holding each other for eons

Sand and glass foretells the rise
Grains of time fall by the side
Lifetime bound by rib and spine

My mother, my lover are holding each other for eons

Breathe your light
Hold your breath
Twins of voice
Scream in pain

Spit it back from whence it came from
Neutralise the growing peril
Blessed are them deemed to perish
Close the loop and the circle
By the needle give her lifesblood
Piece the terminal together
Hope in the hands of a simple mind taught by another

Do you feel alone or welcome
Here in the land for the broken
Can you see the man of stone
Embroidering his mark upon
The deep gold desert built on backs of
Stained red lovers waiting on their day of reckoning
We all wear their skin

My mother, my lover are holding each other for eons

Breathe your light
Hold your breath
Twins of voice
Scream in pain

My mother, my lover consoling each other
The wind and the sand erode my head and hands
As I sing to the stars and I sing to the sun
May the Gods be forgiving for what I have done

Sing to the stars
If I fall much deeper
Sing to the sun
If I grow weaker

My mother, my lover consoling each other for eons
