This band was started in 2019 by Robin and Jani, later on we got a drummer and a bassplayer, Andreas and Leon. but as soon as we started to take form, Jani got ill and ended up having a stroke in december 2019. so the band was put on hold for a little bit while we waited to se if Jani was going to arise from it all.
he ended up loosing the movement in his left arm, and part of the movement in the left leg, wich resulted in not going to pick up the guitar again, in some time, at least.
so we figured out that we needed to hold this band alive and try to make some songs without Jani.
This is the first song - recorded in our rehearsal, with only what we had to record with.
The text is formed after hours of talking to Jani and hearing his pain, the misery of being someone he didn't recognize himself, the angst, and the sorrow. this song is to you Jani. we hope you will come back some day and once again schred the guitar with us.
Love/your band, Svart Tumör.
lyrics
...have I lost it yet - I do forget...
is this the new me - sometimes I do forget...
I feel i bit numb - a little dumb - medication meditation ... it's all I get
so fucking frustrated - irritated ... my mind is blank
I do not know this me - no one notice me
take me on - hold on hard - and bring me back
I wanna run away - from pain and misery
arise... this is not the end!
arise... this is not the end!
arise... this is not the end!
arise... this is not the end!
...this war of mine ... with myself
sometimes I don't forget - i'm just so upset
I'm feeling lonely - feeling weak - as we speak ...
this is beyond remorse - voilent darkest angst
it creeps inside my skin - whispers in my ear, inside my head
my mind is loosing it - i am loosing it
but i cannot run away, my legs won't carry me,
i am dead in the water and it's just getting deeper
arise... this is not the end!
arise... this is not the end!
arise... this is not the end!
arise... this is not the end!
