Seven Rings Left Lyrics

Shadow of a soul you
Come to me and wait for my approval
To kneel here Sacred is the ground I tread
Leave no footprints
perfect in your eyes, you fool
Lay the lesser down
This blood so dark and red
Won't eat away the chains
That hold you where I wish
Where I wish
Watch my every move so calculated
Hunted by the prey but sly, indifferent
Swallow all your pride the poison's
Better that way
When this scent arises new
Lover of a lie
Immersed inside yourself
Dream your fractured mind away inside this cell
Oppression, anger, fear and pain
Restrain the fire to hold the flame
To burn, to sear, to penetrate
Allowed a voice to scream my name
Grasp in your greed for the riches
Give up the hopes for your pride
Drink down the wine like a glutton
Follow the lust in my eyes
For I am the master so envied
Free to be wasteful and sloth
Fear now the wrath of my power
Counting the sins to stay lost
And weak and alone and ashamed
Afraid, so afraid
Of mistakes and failures to be
Perfect, passive and unquestioning
You're awake now, but far too weak
So wait
Worry, hide in shadow
Do not speak, do not dissent, and lay down
Take it, celebrate this pain
Tear away the covers
Useless vestiges of comfort
Pointless tokens of a difference
To hide from me
Throw away the balance
Senseless running without conscience
Endless circle or a spiral
We'll always bleed
The same
So lay down
Lay down slave
Lay down, down
Lay down
Slave
Lay down, down
Lay down
Slave
Lay down, down
Lay down
Slave
Lay down

Formed in late 2002, Seattle's RISHLOO continue to gain wide-spread recognition for their dynamic sound, thought-provoking lyrics and intense live performance. Often compared to bands like Dredg, The Mars Volta, Tool and Fair to Midland, RISHLOO strives to push the envelope of psychedelic, progressive art-rock, drawing inspiration from classic artists like The Beatles, David Bowie, and Pink Floyd, while incorporating the modern experimentation and emotional depth of artists such as Tori Amos, Deftones, Radiohead, Porcupine Tree and more.

In February 2012 the band announced that Andrew, the vocalist, decided to leave the band, this being the unexpected end of RISHLOO. The remaining members briefly formed the band The Ghost Apparatus, until late in 2013 when Andrew and the band rejoined forces. On October 10th 2013 the band announced that they had decided to move forward making music as RISHLOO.

Continuing as they have since their inception as an entirely independent venture, RISHLOO have sold 5,500+ units of their debut album, Terras Fames (2004) and 9,500+ units of their sophomore effort, Eidolon (2007) while attracting tens of thousands of fans online from around the globe. Interest in the band continues to grow exponentially on sites such as Myspace, Facebook, YouTube, ReverbNation and Last.FM.

With a lot of hard work and much appreciated help from their fans, RISHLOO continue to travel and perform whenever possible throughout the U.S. and parts of Canada. In the course of their adventures, they have been privileged to share the stage with artists like Karnivool, Papa Roach, Fair to Midland, Ashes Divide, Sevendust, Trapt, Strata and Judas Priest.

The band's latest effort, Living as Ghosts with Buildings as Teeth, was released January 2015.
