The Outcast

(Marquis Smith )

"The Outcast" details a person who knew someone that committed suicide by gunshot to the head. The character feels a mixture of hurt, contempt, and sadness for the person that chose this course of action. This person is disgusted yet recalls the loved one's distant behavior toward the end. Not really a rhyme scheme here. I wrote this awhile back listening bands like Lamb of God. Preferred genres (but not limited to) Groove metal/ Metal.

Is there hope left? Not at all! Drown out sorrows to heed the sirens call Head down by the past you dread Fatal wound, kiss the bullet head A modern Judas who couldn't live The known will finally know the unknown You decided to go out with a bang Convincing yourself you've no real worth A product of self loathing. Repugnance at its finest. You became obscure to love one... cold Something was unnerving how you became so silent Placing your hand in death's hand And failing like hourglass sand Poor thing! You've robed yourself in valley shadows

Tabernacle Debacle

By Marquis Smith


In Tabernacle Debacle we see not a total absence of faith but a lack there of. And a admittance of a higher power though the character may feel alone. This person had high faith just like the character in my piece called The Thorn of Misery. But there's a struggle within. A struggle that becomes even more apparent because there isn't an answer readily available to the character (or so he or she thinks!). The very fact that this being had woke up is proof enough! But this isn't meant to be happy. I was inspired by death doom metal when I wrote this piece. Not so much poetic like some of my other pieces. Just in your face death doom. Think early work from the like of My Dying Bride. No rhyme scheme. I envision harsh gutteral vocals:)

Dead Flowers Held Sacred MMXVIII

By Marquis Smith


D.F.H.S. MMXVIII is a second installment. Still drawing heavy influence on Doom/death. Imagine this being spoken intro to an album with eeire background with clean vocals.

Dead Flowers Held Sacred

By Marquis Smith


D.F.H.S. details romance and same-sex love (also the title to my compilation of writings). I can imagine this being spoken. Dispensed of heavy metallic sound to evoke the presence of dark romanticism. Maybe some soft piano. I feel this would make a good album opener. Heavily inspired by early My Dying Bride. No rhyme scheme. Preferred genres (but not limited to) Death/doom metal/gothic metal.

Lamentations

By Marquis Smith


"Lamentations" depicts an outsider. Though this person is alive they feel dead inside. This represents depression at it's lowest form. This person never got the help they needed. And things take a turn for the worst in the end. Purposely written vague. This piece is heavily inspired by bands like Opeth. No rhyme scheme here. Preferred genres (but not limited to) Progressive death metal/progressive rock/progressive metal.

Nicht wie Ikarus

By Andrea Pflüger


Ein Mann ist schon lange verliebt, traut sich aber nicht sich zu offenbaren, weil er Angst hat, dadurch die Freundschaft zur geliebten Person aufs Spiel zu setzen. Er vergleicht sich mit Ikarus, der in seinem Übermut zu hoch geflogen ist und deshalb sein Leben verloren hat.
