Steel screams louder than my mind,
Blood runs warm, blind to time,
Every name I couldn’t save,
Lost in the armor that I cave,

Heat in my chest keeps the ghosts at bay,
I fight so I don’t have to pray,
Each impact steals another thought,
I don’t feel the wounds, just what I’ve lost.

Let it burn to keep me moving,
If I stop, I start losing,
In the fire, I can’t feel,
In the fire, it’s not real.

Let it burn, break through steel,
Every strike ensures I’m real,
In the fire, I won’t kneel,
In my fury, it’s all I feel.

Shields shatter, bones break,
I carve my path, none escape,
Steel and fire, My rage takes form,
Every strike, the world I transform.

Heat in my chest keeps the ghosts at bay,
I fight so I don’t have to pray,
Each impact steals another thought,
I don’t feel the wounds, just what I’ve lost.

No pain, no names, no past, no prayers,
Only the swing as I rip and tear,
Armor splits, the ground gives way,
I don’t just fight
I AM THE FRAY!!!

Let it burn to keep me moving,
If I stop, I start losing,
In the fire, I can’t feel,
In the fire, it’s not real.

Let it burn, break through steel,
Every strike ensures I’m real,
In the fire, I won’t kneel,
In my fury, it’s all I feel.

I become the fray!
Let it burn!

The goal of this project was to create three songs to embody the loss a warrior feels when they lose someone they love moments before battle.

"The Pain Inside" (power ballad) represents the initial loss. The grief, the rage and emptiness.

"Echo's in Ash" represents the grief and pain turning into rage and becoming fuel for the fight.

"Shields of Broken Time" embodies the battle itself. A drive to lose ones self in something, anything, to dull the pain. An outlet for the rage while sinking in denial.

"Scars where Fire died" represents the moments after the battle end. Adrenaline starting to fade and reality setting in. It's a song about acceptance and moving forward with the grief.

I was going to skip over the battle completely. But then a fourth song entered my mind. Numbness to pain and grief through the heat of battle.
"Shields of Broken Time" coming soon.tm

This project started as an AI-assisted proof of concept.
The goal is to turn these songs into real recordings with real voices and real musicians.
I’m actively looking for bands or collaborators who connect with this sound and want to help bring it to life.
This project isn’t monetized — the focus is collaboration and creation.
