Peace and Death

A hard rock song

Walking (x8) on the
Edge (x8)
Walking (x8) on the
Edge (x8)

Walking on the edge we never back down
Today's not the day we lose or fall
Ingest the courage let the moment grow strong
Peace and Death are masters to no one

Fire and ice are powers we invest in
We pass along stories, trials, but no regrets
For the people who stand by intolerance
Peace and Death is life with freedom

Stand up and walk that line
Bow now before its your time
Stand up and hold the line
Truth in rightness for Peace and Death

(solo)

Walking (x8) on the
Edge (x8)
Walking (x8) on the
Edge (x8)

Walking on the edge we defy the impossible
Let's start a new order or fix whats stoppable
Lay down to rest for lives of tomorrow
Peace and Death is for those that marvel

Times well spent on times in need
Our lover's grail, releases the freak in me
Let's lay back now and go to sleep
Peace and Death is the ultimate seek

Stand up and walk that line
Bow now before its your time
Stand up and hold the line
Truth in rightness for Peace and Death
Stand up and walk that line
Bow now before its your time
Stand up and hold the line
Truth in rightness for Peace and Death

[Pax Analog]

Intriguing and useful sentiment.

The pairing of Peace and Death is an effective reminder of bottom line. And walking on the edge suits the tightrope aspect of essential awareness.

I'd like to hear the music -- do you have it recorded and posted online?

[M J Moore]

Nicely done. I can get a definite feeling for this. While the music in my head may be different than what you intend, I like this. Stand, bow, there's a ceremony for peace, a ceremony for death. Peace and death can be the same, or they can be their own separate ceremonies, different and alike at the same time. Dark. I like this.

[TL Boehm]

nicely done - the concept of peace and death is valid for a metal lyric like this. It has a strong meter and would lend itself easily to music

[phoenix on the rise]

searching for meaning...in the hopes of finding peace before death...hmm....well done

[Ladysue]

[Emily B]

good stuff

[Spit_and_Prayers]

Despite the mild cliche of "walking of the edge", I really like this. I think I had the most fun just trying to imagine what a good hard rock melody for it would be. It'd be interesting to see how close I was.

I like the cadence. You can almost feel the beat while reading it. I could definitely imagine a group like Korn or Alice in Chains singing this song.
