We are marching on and on
And we never really know
What we’re mean to find beyond the desert days
I am stepping inside my head
Just a stage from being mad
In sadness I will face my future ghost
I am facing all alone
No! Can’t be undone
Hear those voices in my head
All those visions lead me here
What am I suppose to find beyond the sand
Thousand hills of sand at sight
Burning days and frozen night
In madness I will give up paradise
I am facing all alone
No! Can’t be undone
We’re dying in the sun
Don’t know what to do
Relying my words you’ll understand
Be brave and hold on
Until we are through
The eternal marching never ends
Now I wake up in the dead of the night
And a vision makes me shiver inside

I’m born in the wisdom
[He] made a mistake
I am withering away
Living in the night
I am born in the riddle
Walking alone
Won’t get on my way
He’s bound to stay!
Ah yes, I’m born in the freedom
Gone is the light
And I am calling you wake
Waiting so long
Ah yes, I’m calling for freedom
Yearning to say
Cos’ I am vanishing today…
I’m born in the freedom
My waking time
I’ll make see on the way
Just to see…
I am the Meaning!
You and I
Gonna lead our race, safe!
Won’t you stop ‘til make it all!
I believe I carry a way
Showing where to go
To realize and to escape
Just stop beyond this way
All you people carry on
I won’t let you be alone
We won’t die out in the sun!
Just carry on!
* * * *
Just a badge of illusions will stay in my mind
Am I leaving or staying — how long can I hide?
Can’t you see I am lost in the lies of the road?
Visions, wisdom and treason to my peoplehood
[I’m] looking beyond — standing beyond
But how long can delusion stay in my mind?
* * * *
Wake you up and you’ll see
What awaits [you] in your path
Get up to feel what waits in your path
[Take that I offer — what I am making on you]
We will wake and lead you — Through blood and belief
[Waking freedom to stay — and you’re going into]
[SOLO]
The years have passed — I make my sign
My future dream’s a far mirage
* * * *
Thought they want me to say, I am always alone
And the mind ever changing for what can’t be done
Walking in circles and sundered in agony
Won’t you carry us away
Please just take us away
I am so tired of being the one
Following the leadings of Dantalian
We all stand here and bow in the night
And together offer sacrifice
To the goddess of wisdom and songs
And the legions of Dantalian
So I pray through the voice of our kind
For Thee to lead us to paradise
Will Thou hear us, and lead us — we plead
We are lost and helpless and hopeless indeed
* * * *
WAKE UP!
STAND UP!
RISE UP!
Rise up for us!
We are to stand here and bow in the night
We all together offer sacrifice
Goddess of wisdom please hear us as one
We praise the legions of Dantalian
* * * *
You’ll have to believe in what you have assigned
We have that dealing to reach paradise
In dryness and barrenness that can’t be undone
We’re standing for freedom together as one!
So I pray through the voice of our kind
For Thee to lead us to paradise
Will Thou hear us, and lead us — we plead
We are lost and helpless and hopeless indeed

It feels like a dream
But very deceitful
Unreal places will ever come true
In a pleasant path
Can’t realize where I am
Reality shows itself in grains of sand
There I go!
Trailing a pleasant path – I never know
Where I am!
And always seems a lie reality
I try a way out but in vain
My visions change like desert sands
The future through a blind man’s eye
Is never free
I have no place to draw the strength in my way
Ain’t physical, but spiritual sense
Reflections of life in a solitary world
Branded lives by unseen scars and thoughts
There I go!
Trailing the only path I ever know
There I am!
And always as a lie reality stands
I try a way out but in vain
My visions change like desert sands
The future through a blind man’s eye
Is never free

Deceived by the visions of Duke Dantalian and the voices of King Paimon
Camean, the blind prophet, proceded with the sacrifice of a young man
In worship to the fake gods.
In a sort of exchange for salvation and guidance
He stabs the juvenile’s heart and presents his blood
In offer to the great Dantalian and his legions…

Live your lives for our sake
And do save the times you had for me…
In the mind, want to leave you free
We will see beyond you’ll stand today
Relying my words — you’ll know what to do
The eternal march is coming through
We stayed out of time only waiting for today
Won’t you stray the path or get away
There’s no living out the rite you’ll face
All the young men must face the truth
A believer ‘till the time was through
Stay in my way — I say what to do
The eternal Life has coming for you
Straight through the mind — and you’ll see what will be
There’s no Time beyond today
I want to escape and go away
And life and death will carry on
Through eternal night together roam, will together roam!
* * *
Stand and realize what’s gonna be
(You) wanna a piece of heaven you couldn’t see
Face a little lie and come undone
But wanting to believe you carry on
Stay and realize what’s gonna be
No one can accept you thought you free
You’re pounding to stay or go away — stay or go away!
* * *
Miles of sand is moving on to catch us all
Earth is quacking and hardly didn’t know
Storm is riding on the wings of blowing winds
Pipes of gods is whistling from the lands of east
Twisted bodies flying high out in the skies
We did nothing but to trust your bitter lies
Now we’ll die and never know — we did nothing but to trust!
Live your lives for our sake
And do save the times you had for me…
In the mind, want to leave you free
We will see beyond you’ll stand today
Stay in my way — I say what to do
The eternal Life has coming for you
Straight through the mind — and you’ll see what will be

Teach me all the things I never know
All the spells and charms and roaming souls
Altogether haunt me out to say
Holy words were flowing through my hands
I am longing to say
I am bound here to praise
When I’m leaving this ground
My teachings will be spread so far away
…words of liberty…
When you see them you better learn
All the spells and charms are not enough
Our living is not beyond ‘today’
I have left to bring the words to save
He is unborn in the Name
We better be understood
And as you bow and pray
You better look to the real way
* * *
A silent way to go — and the lines you hear will state your goals
And by the living words reborn — and live again!
We are standing all alone [but] I will not cease to carry on
A man is free to trail his way — [but] don’t you ever astray away
Won’t you stay to hear my lines?
Won’t you stay and live your rights?
I am here to lead a way — to get away
And the madness we were through
Made us mourn and free to do
Our a living — a better way to get along
* * *
Today you realized to be
All the errors that you just can’t see
The lonely path to find your way
It’s just a mending and I am here to say
As you’re looking back
And freed your spiritedness
Save your lies for Asmoday
When you’re torn, I am here
When you mourn I will stay to grieve
When you lie all alone
And you’ll feel it, but you’ll never know
(I’ve) just saw you dying here
You know, you just can’t see
Just know, I can feel…
* * *
Just a lonely night in here
The voices cry but never go
I am lost inside of me
I evoke them standing lonely in the night
They say they never want us all to be inside
Writing down the endless ceremony seals
To be aside and let me all the rest I need
A life of endless pilgrimage is on our way
A trick of madness leading us to be insane, yeah
* * *
We have only a way
When the night is over, again
Lonely I rise my face from the earth
I can’t believe we are to die in the sun
We all stole the time away
Steal the light from the day
Far beyond the wheels of mind
We can trust, in time you’ll see
Knowing never what’s gonna be
When denying, stay away
I am trusted to common end
It can’t be fastened, nor be undone
The guiding light will carry us on
We all sold our lives away
For paradise in further days
* * *
Teach me all those things I ever know
All the spells and charms and roaming souls
Altogether haunt me out to say
Holy words were written by my hands
I am longing to say
We are bound here to praise
When we leaving this ground
My preaching will be spread so far away

Like a leaf on the edge of autumn
Feels to complete its life cycle
Slowly falling off the mother tree
Letting itself go to the wind
The fancy breeze takes it aimlessly
Until it’s done in confusing dance
In its twirling waltz of fallen
Waltz of fallen
Let it touch the ground
To find itself away
Surrendering to the earth
To join all the others
Sooner or later
And go back no more…
Neither do we

Desert of Bones Natal, Brazil
A story that turned into a song, a song that turned into a desert Saga. A tale of mysticism, witchcraft and sacrifice described throughout nine songs of acid psychedelic riffs of organs and guitars. If you’re willing to have a walk on through this desert, check them out bellow. ... more

This just has some great vibes all around - from the energy of 56th Floor and Symphony of the ironic sympathy to the gentle, laid back Soul Keeper - it’s worth the time to listen to it all.

The Woes of a Mortal Earth
by Brimstone Coven
supported by 24 fans who also own “Desert of Bones”
Honestly, I hated this band when I first heard their Metal Blade Records debut; I thought the riffs were cool, but the vocals weren't my thing. All that has changed upon hearing this fantastic album, and it's now in daily rotation. Everything about this album is above par, and the vocals are one of the best elements of the group now. If you don't add this to your collection, then you're crazier than I am 😂

Throwing softness and subtlety to the wind, Stockholm's Lowrider raze a molten, stoner-rock warpath, all fuzzy riffs and percussive grit.

This album is utterly and completely fantastic. Just mind-blowing heavy psych. A shame that this band folded after this album, because it’s just so, so good. Yet another Ripple release that gets played regularly.
