Some of you have been asking for more original music, so here it is! My newest single featuring the musical stylings of Mats Aust. Mats recorded the instrumental and sent it my way to write and record vocals. Mats then won the right to use his mix for the release and got his good friend Lasse to create artwork and a video for it. This was a lot of fun to work on and I hope you enjoy it. Shout out to Lasse Reinhold for making the video! Get The Song Now! https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/natebohnet/through-a-prism-lens-feat-mats-aust Lyrics Break the silence, bring yourself back from the fray forge what you will but don’t let it waste Oh spontaneous uncertainty explode and serenade me It clouds over me, distorting every thought and action that could ever be Despite all my foleys, regardless of this self-inflicted stain It was all worthless, it didn't bring any recourse A thousand souls are screaming feeding my remorse Oh it's so sweet, so sweet to be, so sweet to be consumed by everything You needed to believe your fate. You helped to let it in and recreate Your faults your follies, but please don't go astray Collide atoms to create your way Or be consumed by me, by the darkness you leave in your wake Overloading your sense, to see past your insight, the only thing remaining are the ashes left behind As they feed on your grief and despair, feed on your grief and despair Push on to find your way, ignite the flame As they feed on your grief, feed on your despair. Don't let it overload your sense to see past your insight Leave here to burn, left to die Left to die Now Overloading my sense to see past my insight The only thing remaining are the ashes left behind Left behind My studio https://octavestudiosmh.com My Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/natebohnet/ Instagram https://instagram.com/nate.themetalguy/ ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqovhLv4kdA
