I like making video game music covers with lyrics now a days. This was made for the December 2010 (MAGFest 9 Month) Dwelling of Duels (http://dwellingofduels.net) and its pretty cool.
The vocals are kind of rough, so I'm not entirely sure this is officially done yet, hence the reason it's a work in progress, but here's to the future of my music! Also, the highest damn notes I have ever sang are on this track. For realz!
Lyric's forthcoming when I get home to my desktop, scoring disabled because it's not complete
Lyrics
I make my climb
For the seventh time
I hope that this is the last...
A war consumes me
I wish I could break free
From the role I've been cast
My body's shaking
Sweat down my spine
Each time, every time I kn ow that I will win
But he won't give up
So I'll keep on climbing
Until one of us dies
Repeating the same
Nothing will change
As I'm rusted by time...
Chased by his guard
I'm struck by metal shards
Do they know that I feel pain?
I know it seems
I'm just a war-machine
But I have more soul than you can claim
Each guard is destroyed
The same as the last
Each time every time I know that I will win
But he won't give up
So I'll keep on climbing
Until one of us dies
Repeating the same
Nothing will change
As I'm rusted by time...
This can't go on
It's kept up for too long
How is he still alive?
These 7 years, fueling fears
I can't do this forever...
Kill the 8 again
But this time it's easy
Their own guns pulled on them
And they crumble before me
And I...
Regret the loss of life
but I know that its useless
I can no longer pretend
I am human
But I...
Always kept hope alive
and I tried to force the smile
But I am tired of this fight...
Creator tell me I chose this path
But I didn't know then that I would be saying
That, he won't give up
So I'll keep on climbing
Until one of us dies
Repeating the same
Nothing will change
As I'm rusted by time...
This can't go on
It's kept up for too long
How is he still alive?
These 7 years, fueling fears
I can't do this forever...
Why did I choose this
Will I finally lose it
If it continues on
Give me the answer
GIVE ME THE ANSWER
Or let it be over!

What the........who.......I remember you ha ha!! I can't really talk, I haven't been on here for ages either.
This is great, I love it. Yeah, there are some high notes in there, but on the whole the vocals sound great. I also love those guitar harmonies, did you play everything on this?
Great to hear your music again, hope to hear more soon.

I like it - I love the track at the bottom, and the energy of the track. I would've transposed the song down a step or two to help the voice sound a tad less strained and maintain those high notes without much effort, but I still like it.
If you don't mind me asking, what software + hardware are you currently using to make and polish your music?
Keep em' coming, homeslice. :)
