How to write a TOOL song

Writing a TOOL Song | One Man Bands Episode 7 Hey guys! This week we're taking on the mother of all challenges by writing a song inspired by TOOL. I've been pouring over their incredible compositions and immersing myself in the outrageous musical ability of these four blokes. This was undoubtedly the most difficult track to put together but I'm so proud of how it came out, and I learnt a great deal from dissecting Tool's music. If you want to skip straight to the song it is at 26:44 On Monday I covered Tool's track SCHISM which you can watch here - https://youtu.be/ekV-D139BNo Memnon's Voice LYRICS: Sand and glass foretells the rise Grains of time fall by the side Lifetime bound by rib and spine Sand and glass one and the same Stop the clock, reset the frame Do no wrong yet fear the flame My mother, my lover are holding each other for eons Sand and glass foretells the rise Grains of time fall by the side Lifetime bound by rib and spine My mother, my lover are holding each other for eons Breathe your light Hold your breath Twins of voice Scream in pain Spit it back from whence it came from Neutralise the growing peril Blessed are them deemed to perish Close the loop and the circle By the needle give her lifesblood Piece the terminal together Hope in the hands of a simple mind taught by another Do you feel alone or welcome Here in the land for the broken Can you see the man of stone Embroidering his mark upon The deep gold desert built on backs of Stained red lovers waiting on their day of reckoning We all wear their skin My mother, my lover are holding each other for eons Breathe your light Hold your breath Twins of voice Scream in pain My mother, my lover consoling each other The wind and the sand erode my head and hands As I sing to the stars and I sing to the sun May the Gods be forgiving for what I have done Sing to the stars If I fall much deeper Sing to the sun If I grow weaker My mother, my lover consoling each other for eons Let me know which artist to do next in the comments!
