Nightflyer

This song is not in a battle


Up tempo high energy rock tune... Did this in '96 probably, on fostex 28h 4 track cassette recorder, when I was still an over ambitious guitar kid.

I had only been playing for like 3 years... I took the original master from cassette and brushed it up a bit in WaveLab... so production quality isn't all that, but maybe the song itself is okay? Wouldn't know what genre this would be -

"nightflyer" btw was the name of a fictional drug which featured in a pen and paper RPG we called "Ultimate Firepower" - think robocop scenarios... enjoy

Does this song not follow the Rules? Please Report Abuse

i do not understand a word what you are singing here. I valuate the vocals as an instrument and with this point of view this instrument fits the song perfectly. COOL drums, awesome guitar. First I thought it was a synthesizer sound but then I realized you did great work on that. I couldnt play such a riff on my keys. more than well done.

ps
name it "scenario rock"

Oi bro...

DISCLAIMER: I do not necessarily stand by everything (or anything, for that matter) I have said and / or stated in the past.

I don't wanna live
I just don't wanna die
I just wanna stay what I am right now
I don't miss a single second
I don't sleep them away
I just turn my nights into days

so there's 14 days a week
as my concentration peaks
so I turn a little bleak
well you can't have everything
well I am as strong as I can be
baby can't you see
I don't weaken coz I never have to sleep

I don't wanna sleep
I don't wanna die
I'm gonna take it all away through the night
I've got the best you can get
I've got it speeding through my head
I dance on the knife
coz I wanna know I am alive

so you call me hazy
well I will call you lazy
you just stand still coz you forget to take these pills
oh you want to dream?
escape reality?
and you tell me what's right and wrong indeed

baby I'm the king,
and you're missing everything
I gotta drop you like a brick
coz babe you make me sick
you are no human being
you just don't know the feeling
of burning through the night, babe
you already died

I'm just gonna take it
I'm gonna make it
I just wanna fly
every day, every night
I'm gonna be the king
I'm gonna see everything
I'm gonna take it all down
to hear the mermaids sing

you say it breaks me down and it kills my brain
but you oughta f*cking know I'm not the one who is insane
you live your dead lives as it mashes you in slices
maybe you'll live longer, but I will never die

I'm too strong to be in pain
I am pretty sane
I'm not good - I am the best
and I'm speeding up fast (2x)

come on let me kill
I wanna feel that f*cking thrill
come on I'm on the rush babe you know I will
save your f*cking prayers and get the f*ck out of my way
you know baby, I need to kill everyday

you know I am the greatest and I like to live fast
I wanna feel that nightflyer f*cking up my head
against the f*cking wall I need your body right now
you know I really love you so I'll f*ck you anyhow
gimme my pleasure you know I'll make up to you
but come on hurry up for I've got better things to do
you say it breaks me down and it kills my brain
well you can't hurt me baby I'm too strong to be in pain

ps. thanks for all your comments, much appreciated!

yeah, wont spend a word about soundquality, its quite ok for a tape recording.
More important is the song which i like a lot. Powermusic without  being metal!
Your Ministry influences come out well!
Get me more of those oldies!
