mental war 11:39
hey I wear the crown - hey I rule the town - oh my god - they live in my head - hey I will not drown - hey I won’t break down - I’m gonna make ‘em dread - I’m gonna shoot ‘em dead - my delusion holds me tight, as I wake upon the morning light - through the dark cold night - they are creeping through the backdoor, as I lie on the cold floor - they prepare, for my mental war - hey I’m a wanted man - hey I’m a hunted man - they will be misled - hey I’m the evil one - hey I’m the devil’s son - they wanna see me dead - they’re gonna fall instead - hey I’ve got a plan - hey I will withstand - they live in my head - hey I am not down - hey I’m a son of a gun - they will fall instead - I’m gonna shoot them dead - I’ve been fighting my own self-made mental war - they’ve been building an army for me to fall - I will withstand with no allies here to call - I will withstand - I will withstand - I’ve been waiting in my self-dug muddy hole - to see me suffer is their goddamn vicious goal - I’m under construction from my own resurrection - I need some protection from my self-destruction - I need some protection from my self-deception - I wanna see me dead

burning soul 04:21
as I’m walking by the forest trees - and I’m wondering which one is me - do I stand high do I stand tall - or am I wimpy or am I small - as I’m climbing up the mountain side - and I’m questioning my own pride - am I brave am I bold - or am I frozen or am I cold - hey soul burning hole - hey soul burning hole - as I’m passing through the cataract - and I’m doubting my own act - do I run straight do I run tight - or do I go left and then go right - hey soul burning hole - come and take me for a stroll - hey soul burning hole - come and show me where’s my goal - as I emerge into the sea - and my journey is complete - I’ve found my home my place to be - my strain is over and I feel free
3.
something in my mind keeps on fucking me - like a crawl scratching my brain away - strange thoughts become reality - like in hell it drives me into insanity - fake or real is that the deal - like a drug obscuring and blinding my sight - I try to withstand but evil creeps upon - like at dawn when daylight fights against the night - weird thoughts in my head - are filling up the emptiness in my heart - weird thoughts are feeding my fears - my eyes are empty the end is near
4.
eternal fall 09:35
no one loves me - no one hates me - everyone just thinks I’m dead - I’m done I’m fucking done - young man ready to go - old man gotta catch the flow - somewhere in between - I fucked up and I left the scene - highway I hit the road - hard way and I feel the load - stood strong walked my lane - then I turned and I felt the pain - everyone thinks I’m dead - cause I’m a lonely man - you don’t know me - you don’t own me - everyone thinks I’m gone - cause I’m a rolling stone - you can’t hold me - you can’t control me - bright sun eternal glow - black hole keeping me low - fought hard the gravity - fell deep into insanity - rough land reached the ground - open sky now I’m found - searched long for inner peace - now I’m ready to release
5.
I lie alone in the devil’s hole - just lost my soul to the alcohol - I feel so dry I wanna die - death comes as pleasure in disguise - and I reached out for the devil’s hand - I wanna go to the promised land - as I see his evil eye - I realize it’s a fucking lie - I was looking for serenity - but joy wants deep eternity - I was looking for serenity - but joy wants deep eternity

about

Desert Gatan Brig, Switzerland

!!!stoner sludge metal from the south of the swiss alps!!!
Heavy guitar riffs, wrenching bass sound, rattling drums, that's Desert Gatan. They mix strong heavy bass groove with psychedelic rock and progressive metal.
Bands from the 70's are considered as inspiration, but also contemporary bands have their influence with Desert Gatan.
