THE UNTOLD STORY
By: Gary Hart c2009 (Edited by FJ)
VERSE 1
There once was an old man, who lived in the bowels of the decay
He kept his eyes open, stayed out of harms way
There's no pretending in this forsaken society
Dark was his life without pity
PRE CHORUS
He lived among the fights and blood shed
Where violence erupts, no remorse for the dead
No protection for the good
The flash of a gun, no where to run
He prayed to see, the morning come
No protection from the bad
CHORUS
Untold story, no victory, no glory
Red flows, as the innocence goes,
Untold story, no victory, no glory
Lost in the throes of the untold story
VERSE 3
His blood ran so freezing cold, from the sights his two eyes have seen
He knew he couldn't change the smallest of things
There's no pretending in this forsaken society
Dark was his life without pity
PRE CHORUS
He listened to the, sirens at night
Reminding him, to stay out of sight
No protection for the good
Out his window he saw, the hustlers and whores
As drug deals went down, in the room next door
No protection from the bad
(SOLO)
(CHORUS)
VERSE4
The old man lived many years, no one saw him shed the tears
He kept his eyes open so the light might shine in
There's no pretending in this forsaken society
Dark was his life without pity
PRE CHORUS
He lived among the fights and blood shed
Where violence erupts, no remorse for the dead
No protection for the good
The flash of a gun, no where to run
He prayed to see, the morning come
In one quick moment the old man was gone
(CHORUS) (END)
 
Way to go guys!! This came out very well! Great job on the vocals and lyrics not to mention the music.
This is a classic piece of rock music. The guitars are played extremely well. The vocals remind me of RUSH. Nicely done.
Oh yeah! Woo Hoo! It's brilliant, my friends! The song grabs you from the first aaaaah and never lets go. It's got all a great hard rock song must have and some! Your individual skills are amazing. Wicked guitars, thunderous bass, amazing REAL drums and out of this world vocals. Who could ask for more? Rock on guys!
On a further listen, i wanted to comment further. First, i didnt mention Rob in the first comment, and wanted to ammend that- it's always great to hear you Rob- i hope maybe i could borrow Rob for the bass one one of our songs soon ,, that would be great ! : )
Further, i've noticed this time around more, the quality of the lyric story- a thought rich lyric creation.
cheerio
Mmm I like this. It's nice to be able to read the Lyrics. Definately a ballad.
Yeah, WOW - full of energy! Mix is a bit hot for my taste, I still downloaded it for the show after Christmas Day! Some tasty stuff, guys!
Wow, I really don't know how to describe this. Excellent driving beat and guitarworks and of course strong vocals. What a great band.
The chorus part reminded me of the 80's rock band 'Boston". Great work guys. Cheers / Mike
it was good ....like the way you framed the vocals
Wow!!! this track hit me very hard,kikazz tune and production,great collab.
Yep Guys ... this is rockin.... awesome energy...love the bass playing ...Rob really holds down the fort.......love the drumming......this rocks my little musical world that is for sure..vocals, guitars a rockin..Thx, Bud
Great song fellas. Read the lyrics and they are very creatively written, but the vocals are fading in and out, or should I say, the pitch is wavering, up and down every few seconds, as if I am playing a warped record. Is this just the streamable version here at Mix that is doing this?
Sorry, if that sounds negative, but felt I should be honest with my opinions.
WOW! What a ROCKER! Great job all around! congrats!
Punchy powerful chordZ that release that Geddy(rush) styl-ish vocalization...Has a real creative, changing progression style while remaining heavy...kinda like progressive METAL with a psychedelic edge...I hear RUSH,Tull,Metalica and tons of other vibrations N this heavy duty ROCKER...a little Ronnie James Dio, N his later years when he was with Deep Purple...ThanX $ the listN~Austn
My friends, i'm happy to be here with the time available to listen to your new track.
This production resounds with the statement that ,, you rockers have a statement !!!! LOL,,
It will take a few listens to be able to absorb this,, whew , there's allot there.
Farrell, you just sound like you love singing more than anything in the whole world ,,, : )
The vocals , guitars, Bass and everything is quite astounding here- yet, also, ,, well, i want to be honest- but , in doing song comments,, to be directly honest is a very very hard thing to do. Because,, with us musicians,, if some one says 9 compliments and one criticism about our work,, the 9 compliments go to the side and the 1 critique can potentially deflate and depress us. So,, it's a difficult game to play ,
This is a production to be proud of ,, that much is sure- and i want to say again the vocals are great and i noticed alot of innovation in the higher harmonies etc. Great guitar as always Gary !
