lyrics

A GRIM MYRIAD

First we got, consciousness of death.
Cognitive state, sudden apoplexy.
Then we struggled, to avoid fatality.
We scribed our own God, to weave our faith upon

Great architechs of decease, self-imposed martyrdom
Harvesters of sorrow, cadavers of tomorrow
A contrasting shade, concealed hypocrisy,
a grim myriad, an allegory

Frail humanity, spawns dissaray and misery
Stale vanity, a vast array of monstruosities
Tears of fear, in a streaming ocean of agony
Screaming in this automnal scenery

Great architechs of decease, self-imposed martyrdom
Harvesters of sorrow, cadavers of tomorrow
A contrasting shade, concealed hypocrisy,
a grim myriad, an allegory

Uncovering lies, narrowing human's alibi
Constrained to deny what's beyond the sky
We strive for perfection, yet can't harness ourselves
Cross breeding infections, a slight moral inflection
A loop of infinite echo, the tempting voice of consciousness
Such a grim myriad, to possess to impress

Then we got, a glimpse of our own death.
A precognitive state, sudden humility.
Then we struggled, to avoid ignominy.
We scribed our own God, to blame our crimes upon

Great architechs of decease, self-imposed martyrdom
Harvesters of sorrow, cadavers of tomorrow
A contrasting shade, concealed hypocrisy,
a grim myriad, an allegory

Empty Glance, Anxious Stance
Choral Misthrust, Immoral Lust
Depraved illusions, a firmament Failure
Brought thee pleasure in perfect Rapture

Uncovering lies, narrowing human's alibi
Constrained to deny what's beyond the sky
We strive for perfection, yet can't harness ourselves
Cross breeding infections, a slight moral inflection

Glimpses from beyond the veil
A reality alien to our beliefs
Bleeding free we behold an unnamable chaos
Unfiltered by the tendrils of emotion

A grim myriad, to witness illusion
A grim myriad, to possess to impress

Daedalean Complex Quebec, Québec

It began in La Belle Province's Capital (Quebec City) where Daedalean Complex was born in late 2007.

Ever since then, crowds are falling for the band’s live intensity, their melodic and catchy tunes yet dark and heavy sound as well as their highly developped theatrical style, gaining new fans by the minute all around the world. ... more
