“I’m proud to introduce you to VEMØDs 2nd single ”Matriarch”! I went a lot more metal with this one as I wanted to create something that stood in stark contrast to the debut single ”Demons Within”. This one is a lot more fast-paced and riff-based but still has a huge, pop-influenced chorus and a heavy, seriously down-tuned breakdown. Being a guitar guy since childhood, growing up with Yngwie Malmsteen, Jeff Loomis, etc. I decided to put a really shreddy solo in there as well. In short, there’s a lot going on in the 3 minutes and 11 seconds that this song plays. Production-wise, I wanted to bring some more aggression into the mix, so a lot of effort went into getting the production to have more bite than the debut single.“ - Jonathan Thorpenberg, VEMØD
LYRICS
I was only a boy when I learned
To adapt to the darkness
The cold and the rain
You looked away as you watched me fall
And I never got rid of the pain
I could tear down a mountain
With only my bare hands
But I could not drain the ocean between us
Still I would do anything
If you could be proud of me
So why did you cut me out from your heart?
I reach out for your helping hand
But your fingers were always so cold to the touch
Carve your name into my skin for your approval
But it was never enough
I could tear down a mountain
With only my bare hands
But I could not drain the ocean between us
Still I would do anything
If you could be proud of me
So why did you cut me out from your heart?
I’d carve your name on my skin
Just to show you that I’m good enough
I’d tear my heart from my chest
If only you could have loved me more
Mother, why have you forsaken me?
Matriarch, you cut me off.
Mother, why have you forsaken me?
Matriarch, you cut me off.
I could tear down a mountain
With only my bare hands
But I could not drain the ocean between us
Still I would do anything
If you could be proud of me
So why did you cut me out from your heart?
I’d carve your name on my skin
Just to show you that I’m good enough
I’d tear my heart from my chest
If only you could have loved me more
I have laid you to rest
And there’s no use to dwell on the past
I can’t forgive, won’t forget
I won’t forget that you abandoned me
