The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara - Feed the Beast

Copied!

This is dawn
A new day
The morning angels bring
Daylight nebula gazing

Time has come to wake
From peace, not dreams
We crawled back to our filth
And commenced the feeding

There it began
The fruitless dance of guilt and shame
Gods with prying eyes
Behold the woes of mortal man

Where did we go wrong
How did we get here
A great chasm forms
And mourning has begun

Time
Points
Towards the brink
As shadows gather
Minds start to sink
We tread
The path unknown
Witnеssing the seeds
Of our doom
Being sown

Feed the bеast
Feed the will
Invite me in
Invite me in

I need the feeling
Searching for meaning
I need the feeling
Keep me from healing

I need the feeling
Searching for meaning
I need the feeling
Keep me from healing

Take it
Break it
Need a breakthrough

Take it
Break it
I need a breakthrough
Lost in the abyss
Of our plight
We stumble blindly
Chasing the light

A spiral of madness
Feeding the void
Silently destroying
All that we enjoyed

Lost in the abyss
Of our plight
We stumble blindly
Chasing the light

A spiral of madness
Feeding the void
Silently destroying
All that we enjoyed

Dark days
Hollow ways
Dark days
Hollow ways

I sit alone here
Waiting for nothing
Looking for someone
To waste away with
I don’t belong here
Headed to nowhere
All we ever know is
We all die alone

Night fell like a cloak
Silence settled their rattled nerves
The air was crisp
Even the water was still

The beast fell to its knees
Crumbling into a mangled heap
It’s last breath spent
It’s dance with death complete

Little did the boys know
The beast had them all fooled
Cut my throat
Spill my blood
But I will never be killed

This is my inertia
This is my disease
Fill me up
Fill this chasm within
Fill me, but
Don’t kill the beast

Delusion of grandeur
The human condition
A journey to extinction
Our dire intermission

Bound by the strings of
This puppeteer's game
We dance on the brink
Consumed by
Our shame

But the light that once
Guide us to ascend
Now flickers forlornly
Our darkness will never
End

Don’t
Feed
Don’t feed the beast

Don’t
Feed
Feed the beast

edit bio

Hailed as “pioneers of a new form of expression” through the performance of poetry in music, The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara (TCOMAS) are a UK-based duo comprising Daphne Ang (Vocals, Piano, Keyboard) who hails from Singapore, and Andrea Papi (Guitar, Bass, Vocals) from Italy. Based out of the heart of London’s vibrant rock scene in Camden Town, London, The Chronicles of Manimal and Samara came together in London in early 2020 to record their debut album, “Full Spectrum” (released on 26 February 2021).

Drawing inspiration from many sources stemming from Devin Townsend and Tool through to Kraftwerk and Russian Circles, as well as absorbing the poetry of Virginia Woolf and Jim Morrison, TCOMAS admirably strive to fill a gap in music by bringing literature and history together into an arena where rock and metal meets electronica.

Their musical and lyrical themes are very much rooted in the duo’s interests in classical literature and theatre, as well as in the fields of philosophy, history, and psychology. Their musical innovations are a result of a collaborative process beginning with the composition and arrangement of the music, which Samara then casts into verbal form. By setting a poetic/narrative text within the musical composition in lyric mode which is spoken, recited and narrated instead of sung, this inter-artistic mode of transfer goes beyond placing brief interludes of spoken word over an instrumental composition.
