    Lyrics:
    "An umber tower is quiet and looming before me
    And I once used nothingness to fill that void
    Then the sky must have thrown a gauntlet
    To detour me from the center I knew
    -And I've never been wrong
    The winds had changed beyond your shore
    Now a mattered mane that muffles the lion's roar
    Such a place would leave a sour, familiar taste upon my tongue
    How I trembled at the knees!
    Underneath a mask, in the gully I hie
    And I sank much deeper than I had prepared for
    Tailing shades coalesced and converged on the walls
    When I turned, they were nothing!
    No, nothing at all!
    O' such beguiling was their boisterous game!
    My own shadow... now a faceless no one
    Such a place would leave a sour, familiar taste upon my tongue
    How I trembled at the knees!
    At sudden, from inside me
    I felt a rapid disassemble
    And all around had turned to gloom
    Still, all around was calm
    And I raised my fist!
    But there was no confrontation
    Just a question had they asked
    And with the comfort, I gave in
    An umber tower was quiet and looming before me
    So I used its gallantry to fill that void
    Truly, I had embraced that delusion and glory
    So I guess I don't know what I knew after all
    Such a place would leave a sour, familiar taste upon my tongue
    How I trembled at the knees!"

    i prefer your original works over your cover works. They are great too but the accent makes your original songs so addictive
    I have listened to this song more than i will care to admit

    Damn man, this is honestly some of the best music I have ever heard. It blows my mind how you do all of this by yourself.

    Been following you for a solid five years or so, listened to everything you've put out, and I always find myself coming back to this song. I can't quite explain why, but Umber Tower just struck a chord with me when I heard it for the first time and I have loved it ever since.
    Justin, you are a phenomenal musician and I aspire to be at your level of creativity someday.

    Holy shit. I can't believe I am just now hearing this for the first time. Absolutely amazing. This song has one of the most catchy choruses I've heard anywhere. You are an extremely talented vocalist and musician. I can't wait to go through every song you currently have out at least several dozen times and hope you continue to release more. I can't believe I discovered this after watching your video on how to do metal screams. Also the Jared Dines contest winner song was super amazing also. Have you thought about re-recording that as an album track?

    You have a very addictive accent when you sing. Did it just come natural to you or did you practice it?

    When you do the rasped singing and high screams what does it feel like for you and where does it "feel" like its coming dude?

    • @jacobkotecki4047
      @jacobkotecki4047 8 років тому +1

      Rasp in the throat
      Any scream/growl/fry/inhale will feel like its from the chest or diaphragm.

    • @jummysea463
      @jummysea463 8 років тому +1

      Unless it's the like kermit the frog kinda rasp thats coming from the throat but i dont think thats related to the screaming and doing that too much might hurt you too

    Just a suggestion, when i listened to all your album, there were parts that the vocals mixed up with the instruments and hard to hear, but your video like this has better quality sounds. So i guess I'll just stick to UA-cam for now
