Time goes by The endless hope That we all feel The sands of time That last in souls They fade away They bring decay They pass on by To another world To a forbidden zone All hope is gone All Else is Gone All Hope is gone And all your words Let me bleed out sitting in solitude I feel your malice I feel your need But I am just a mortal man I feel like I’m just not myself I feel like things aren’t right But I won’t let it hurt me No I won’t I won’t let it hurt me The endless hope That we all feel The sands of time That last in souls They fade away They bring decay They pass on by To another world To a forbidden zone All else is gone All hope is gone All Else is Gone And all your words Let me bleed out sitting in solitude I feel your malice I feel your need But I am just a mortal man I will not be faulted I will not be destroyed I won’t let this fail me No I Won’t Let it Fail me And all your words Let me bleed out sitting in solitude I feel your malice I feel your need But I am just a mortal man Time goes by

In days of grey I’ll see the sun I won’t fly to it I’d sink above You’ve helped me sail A thousand Miles You gave me purpose Just to fly I’ll throw away my arrogance And put your fortitude on my sleeve I’ll give my best all for you But I’ll put my trust in me I’ll say goodbye to yesterday And keep the present by my side I will learn from my mistakes And let my wings be my guide In days of grey I see your smile I won’t run from it I’d stand on trial You’ve helped me sail A thousand Miles You gave me purpose You helped me fly These wings won’t melt today I will search my faith This wisdom is my guide It will be my strength For all that I’ve done it will give me light I will honor you I’ll never fail my ways!! And if I do who am I inside And if I lead my woes what kind of man am I? Did I try I’ll never fail you I’ll never fail you These wings are my embrace

They cast their lines And divide All their backstab in plain view They're all snakes And wolves Among the sheep They will not stand Or mend Their promises Because they prey On the damned They lie in shadows Among your portraits They feed on the alpha Of your weakness But we as people see them clearly And we see through their device You call me your brother of your your family But what have you done For me lately? Where were you at my downfall Where were you at my death?!

about

The New Testament EP is a more commercial sound for the band, far different from their debut release #WhenHeroesFail and also different from the future direction of the band. This is the final parting gift for singer Matt O'Tonic McGroarty, as both he and Polytheist have mutually agreed to part ways. Since Matt had a strong clean voice, the band agreed it best to capsulize it on these 3 songs and archive them in the catalog! This EP was engineered, mixed, mastered, and produced by the great Mike Mallon! The 3 EP songs include: #ThicketofSolitude (title borrowed from Nickelodeon's #Doug ), #WhatLiesOnChannel95 , and #DaedalusComplex

about

Polytheist Lansdale, Pennsylvania

Polytheist is composed of metal musicians with wildly differing opinions on music. Taking to an inclusive worldly approach of not dismissing any ideas just to fit a genre mold, Polytheist composes alternative progressive metal with elements from all over space and time. The lyrical theme is also an exploration, touching on the impacts of religion, theology, science, spirituality & politics. ... more
