Lyrics:
Swiftly, it starts
Impulses driving me so far astray
I feel a part
Of myself expire, wither away
Carry the spark
Or smother it, and lose your grip
Left with a mark, a dream of a star
This isn’t my reality
This is my holding out for something greater
I never knew vitality
A soul that wanders, lost within a song
Take me
To a better place, where I’ll embrace
The soul inside of me
Calm, at peace
Far beyond this mess my mind can rest
The current carries me along
A force that pushes me on
A voice that calls from afar
Still searching for my family
Nostalgic spirits coming back to life
Demons of old, abandon me
No longer letting fear block me from the light
Song, take me
To a better place, where I’ll embrace
The soul inside of me
Calm, at peace
Far beyond this mess my mind can rest
The current carries me along
A storm that I cannot ignore
Ravages me beyond the shore
Some force I’ve never felt before
Beckoning me to venture forth
Current, carry me on
Voices call from afar
Now the line has been drawn, reluctance is gone
Carry me on
Song, take me
To a better place, where I’ll embrace
A soul that sets me free
Calm, at peace
Far beyond this mess my mind can rest
The current carries me along

Thanks for having me shred a little solo on this brotha, it's a beautiful track!
I love your channel!
That was you? Damn man nice! I love how you and Andy are kind of evolving together, both of you are improving so much. Cant fucking wait to see more from Termina, I hope you gents have some more in store!
You and Andy are perfect. You both have godlike skills
Best bromance ever
@nik What's the tuning if this song???
Good that you’re doing something with this since Sumerian didn’t. 🍻 cheers!
You Talking about In Motive? They are a thing..
Sumerian doesn't want people this talented and independent. They want "yes" men.
@@Zachary_Sweis If this is the case, I'm very glad he wasn't chosen then. Seeing as Andy has a million and one projects going on and is now the vocalist for Monuments!
What a flex, hell yeah! I loved this audition cool to hear it redone!
I need a Dickey, Andy and Nik collab now.
If you, andy, nik, wyatt stav ever joined forces, the world of metal would never be the same
Amazing. Both of you guys got me through a lot.
Yep, they made a HUGE mistake choosing the other guy over Andy.
Who is the other one?
@@devilskeleton2218
This proves the point
Devin Barrus is the other guy, he’s pretty damn good too and is now the vocalist for a band called Sunsleep and they’re really fuckin good trust me check them out. I love Andy and thought he should’ve won too but Devin is no slouch😉
@@jimarchambault8262 Tnx, man! I'ma check them out right now!
@@jimarchambault8262 I second this, Sunsleep is underrated
This audition was how I found you. I still listen to it all the time. So damn good!!!!
Sumerian missed out on an S-Tier vocalist.
I still listen this song all day is very cool
Same!
S-teir pffft you meant to say god-tear my friend
That's the reason he's in monuments
Play this at your makari concerts
This needs more likes!
I dunno, I doubt Andy would want to do something that would come off as “selfish” to random clowns that love to just cause problems. Obviously the Makari bois would have been okay with it to go along with it but people are freakin ridiculous.
@@ZephyrusBlue This is such an accurate representation of how you have to think when playing music in a band. Unfortunately the lames ruin it for everyone.
Yo imagine this becomes a monuments song and those bois put their twist on the instrumentals.
A man can dream.
Yassss!
"I never knew virginity," or whatever Andy says in this song
I never knew vitality...
@@Martyrial r/woooosh
I dreeeam of a shark.
Still salty this didn't win. Must've jammed the original video a hundred times
Easily one of the most beautiful rock songs I have heard in recent years and alot of it due to his mezmorizing vocals yo
Lyrics are sooo gooood. The original one is one of my banger tracks. Friends asked me what band it is and i just show them the vid. Its a true gem
The guy who won the contest already left the band lol.
@@1337pudding Oh wow that is just... poetic.
@@1337pudding i never caught the band . who is it ?
This song will forever remind me of my best friend. RIP Ryan Corey Newsome.
sorry for your loss
A convicted sex offender..
Payers…RIP…
One of the few songs where the lyrics just never leave your mind and can just singalong so naturally
The oh so very iconic song!!!
You're incredible Andy 😍
Yooo make a song with Andy
Nice seeing you here bro i love your covers
@@Feelstoramusic maybe Termina would call him to be featured in their track? Hopefully yes....
I still prefer the original raw edition, but neither one will ever disappoint.
This song made me cry before. Now it makes me throw a one man concert in my room. Not sure what it is, but you’ve got it dude and I hope you never stop making music.
Same. The original version was so powerful I couldn't listen to it without ugly crying as it gave a voice to that feeling and need deep inside.
2019, and we still dont understand how anyone tought this wasnt the superior version.
Finally on Spotify! This song is religious! 🔥♥️
Thanks for the years Andy. Your music has meant alot to me.
So glad you're in Monuments now Andy. Every band deserves you.
Aman Basumatari he’s....what?!?!
Still blows my mind in 2023 bro... Elite all around
I've listened and sung along to your audition song literally 500+ times. It helped me through a really hard time, all of your music has...especially Wvnder. This version is amazing. Thanks for being you.
Wvnder has been my go to for the last year
@@13XxHabsFanxX21 Yesssss. Their new album is FIRE
Agreed!!!! Every single song they've made is FIRE!! 😉
Thank you.
I listened to his original audition video everyday for about a year. A track I will always have love for. Andy is a legend in my eyes.
Caa-aaaa-AAAAALM! ❤️
This is officially one of my favorite songs ever created. Practically brought me to tears for real.
absolutely fking incredible man goose bumps everywhere. production is top notch, song is on another level. straight into the playlist!
This version is absolutely fantastic 🔥💯🙌
Very underrated to the core. Reminds me of a Deftones crossover with another band I can't think of. I have never heard this before until yesterday. Huge mindfuck. If Chino and posthardcore had a baby, this would be it.
This song would feel at home on the DMC 5 soundtrack.
I'll always say it, YOU SHOULD HAVE WON THAT CONTEST.
I needed this. I've been repressing my emotions and I have not been listening to music like I used to. I feel like I can escape through music.. So this had me crying at work
Thanks for doing this, you had the best audition by far, should have won. Although, wouldn't have you as Monument's frontman otherwise, so worked out in the end.
No record label could pay you what you deserve for the talent you have bro just remember that
this song is so fucking amazing. it never gets old honestly
Bruh, this song when I had found it years ago at that time I had never stopped listening to it and since then when I stopped but came back to it a few day ago I just got goosebumps again from it.
This song touched my soul and yeah I couldn't stop listening to it for a long time now 😅😆👌🤘🔥✊💯
This song seriously deserves proper recognition. Major talent right here
The only thing keeping me alive right now
I rocked this so many times before. Glad it's back.
One of my good friends loved your audition song, he would jam it all the time. Unfortunately he passed away last month, and I cant hear that audition now without thinking about him; he would've loved to see this.
Yes dude! Stoked I can save this on Spotify to hear the lyrics and melodies you wrote. Such a good song man
You know its truly an amazing song when your favorite singer comments their love for a song by your other favorite singer
Fancy meeting you here, Chris
How Sumerian let your version go to waste is beyond me. Way better than all the other auditions combined \m/
Andy...thank you for making songs that allow us use to them to speak when know one hears....my mother is on her death bed as of today...and I am the one that has to choose whether she lives with her brain as a vegetable or let her go...
I am SOOOO GLAD that you created this on your own because it is an amazing song and vocals!!!!!! My husband and I can never get it out of our heads!!!!!
I heard a clip of the original on Instagram about 4 years ago and I tried to find it so many times. About 3 months ago I finally heard a Makari song and recognized your voice, and I searched through your whole channel to find that one gorgeous song lol. It makes me so happy hearing it redone now
I know I can’t be the only person wondering how you haven’t absolutely blown up yet. Andy you are INCREDIBLE. I swear one day you’re going to be a household name. Would love to meet you sometime. A true genuine talent, and a product of hard work and passion for what you do.
This song makes me cry every fucking time
This song will always remain special to me. Thank you, you cant understand or know where anyone is at any single moment when they heard this or will hear it.... It means different things to different peope. ❤
YES!!!!!!!!! A THOUSAND TIMES YES!!!!!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I can’t express how happy this makes me. I have been keeping my fingers crossed for this release. IMMEDIATELY going onto my daily playlist 😁😁😁
So glad I can finally put this on my playlists
Man I jammed this song for so long but it wasnt until earlier this year that the lyrics actually hit me hard and it worked it's way back into my mix of music I listen to on the daily. This version is way better and seems perfectly timed thank you for this
Holy shit. You did it. You finally made this masterpiece into your own track and released it!!!
Legit the best post hardcore vocalist of this era. Obsessed. Glad you’re looking up!
Not sure if it was on purpose or not but the clarity of the vocals at the end and the transition from how the chorus is sang at the beginning makes this song even that much better, by the end I truly feel at peace while the beginning almost seems distant and blurry. Really brings the whole feeling of the song together. Great job andy!
Was just jamming to it and saw it was on spotify and gave it a listen theb get on UA-cam and I see this in my recommended. So tike for another listen. Keep up the great work. Your tunes are righteous.
Goosebumps the entire time. Andy is straight up one of the best vocalists in the game right now.
I've been binge listening to your Sumerian Audition the past few weeks as well as your other music and covers. You're incredible dude keep at it!!!
I still have the original audition in the top 10 in my play list. You nailed it with your melodies and vocals. Loving this Reimagined version
1:06 that "ca-a-alm" climbing up into his vocal range hits me every time.
So excited to hear what he has in store in the coming months and years.
Wow, how did I not know he remade this! Went to listen and saw this video underneath! Amazing.
Dude this is fucking amazing, you have no idea how many times I've listened to the original. It's great that you've made something more of it.
Also, clearly you should have won the damn contest. Sumerian must have been smoking some good shit in order not to choose you lol
wish i can sing that good your voice is freak!
YES! Was watching the original video and saw this. Pleasantly surprised!
GOOD. This song was too genius to just stay an audition entry
What a.... ahem... monument of a vocalist
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
Absolutely gorgeous dude. So glad you were able to carry this over and make it entirely your own!
Hot damn this is 🔥 Absolutely beautiful. I have always loved this song you did and so glad it’s not on iTunes!
You are absolutely beautiful yourself! 😍
Creepy
Long story short, this is just too good. Legendary song and vocals. Period.
I like the original better for some reason. But it’s literally one of my fav songs ever. I listen every single day
Love your mellows bro. Keep it up! I'd definitely buy your albums. 😎😇
That's crazy how you're getting better and better over the years
Been following you for probably 2 years, and I'm really happy to see where you are now, and you should be really proud of yourself bro!
With love from France
This song literally makes me cry. As one musician to another. Thanks andy. This is why youre an idol of mine. Youre the best
One of my favorite fry screamer!!!!
WE NEED A MUSIC VID WITH THIS ONE!!! PLEASE
I'm so glad this happened.
This song took me to a better place and embrace the soul inside of me.
I absolutely love all of your music, I was there when the Sumerian Audition was uploaded, Always will be here rocking your music no doubt fits my music choice to a T. Absolutely love all of it
God damn this is beautiful
Where it all started for me!
What a re-do my dude. SO GLAD you did it. My friends and I must've watched your audition 1,000+ times. Glad to see this, and EXCITED AS ALL HELL for Termina.
Very beautiful Andy !!! Excellent work on this , seriously !!!!
This song is truly a masterpiece man, good job. Shoutout to Nik for the great solo.
Holy fuck, I thought the other one gave me chills. THIS ONE got me.
man over here making me cry
Congrats on the original video hitting 1 million dude! Glad you took the time to go over it, the vocal mix is a huge improvement
Was just listening to the original audition and get goosebumps every time, then I go on your channel and see THIS! So happy, you’re incredible
Omg I want to cry! I fucking love this! I loved your audition and honestly you should have been chosen because Devin basically was like fuck this and dropped from the project
that high notes with soft ones gets me everytime i listen to this song
How have I only just seen this?!
Dude this is so fucking great. Seriously thank you for doing this
Nothing... And I do mean NOTHING ... will ever beat the first one. It will forever remain one of my favorite songs ever.
I don’t know how to explain it but this songs just seems fuller and full of more life than the audition. Great rework Andy!
This song is beautiful in its own right, but your vocal performance and delivery is so fucking spot on and it even does something that not many vocalists can do to a song, it elevates it.
I'm not gonna lie. this is much better than the audition version. the arrangement of the instrument is truly emotional.
If the original take didn’t give any of you goosebumps, and this stillllll doesn’t...Microwave your own head..
You’re better than Sumerian with class, originality and continuance. NEVER STOP.
(And that damn Nik Nocturnal..lol)
Ur amazing, I watched ur live with monuments in India, Bangalore.
Ur awsome, I really liked the lyric of this song too.
This is SO much better than the the official track sumerian released....... Well done Andy!
Absolutely beautiful song.
Dude I downloaded that and listened to it non stop since! Lol
i love this song from the audition! very nice, you are amazing! support from Venezuela
It's been a whole week since I jammed with the track, Nik's solo adds the flavor of the song, but most importantly your vocal is always breathtaking and makes the track thousand times better. Good work, man.
I’ve been waiting for this it’s fucking sick and a beautiful track dude hell yeah
I totally missed this. Been jamming the audition since I saw it back when that was going on. Thank you so much for this.
