lyrics

The quandry of existence
Everlasting adaptation, confusion
Living souls who wish to conform,
And the souls who choose the other path
Fallible, we are
Imperfect, weak
The gift of life and death
Fragility of the egoist
Plaguing the weak-minded
Failure to open the eyes
Failure to see the scheme
Damaging traits to your fellow man
Lashing out and pushing away
The pain inflicted, beyond the obvious
Blinded by ego
Your greed rings true
Your strength may lie elsewhere
But not here
I welcome those who realize
And I shall banish the false-willed
Drowning in yourself

Aurea Aetas
by Grandeur

supported by 8 fans who also own “Blinded by Ego”

More amazing black metal from Erech, whose other bands Ancient Mastery and Carathis are favorites of mine. With Grandeur the music is harsh, fast paced, melodic, riff-heavy guitar driven black metal that is a bit more raw and less epic than Erech's other acts. Jody B.
