Dark Alchemy

Tristan Robert Lange

Inverted smile
At Inverted truth,
Inverted crosses
Lead to inverted Youth.

Dark Alchemy
Pour out of me
Dark Alchemy
Poisons Me.
 
Verse 2:
Inverted love
Over inverted hate
Inverted lives
Lie in ruinous state.
 
Chorus 2:
Dark Alchemy
Pour out of me.
Dark Alchemy.
Destroys me.
 
Instrumental/Solo
 
Ending Chorus (2x):
Dark Alchemy
Pour out of me
Dark Alchemy
Poisons Me.
 
Dark Alchemy
Pour out of me.
Dark Alchemy.
Destroys me.

    A great reliance on the occult the use of three as in the three time repetition in stanzas. Nice work my friends. The use of inversions, inverted smiles are frowns. The sign of the inverted cross. A most interesting song

    • Tristan Robert Lange

      Soren, I really appreciate your read on this one. The inversions…yes…that sense of everything turned inside out, even down to the repetition. Grateful for your thoughtful ear, my friend. ⚗️🕯️🌑🙏 Much appreciated!

      • sorenbarrett

        You are most welcome my friend

        Oh my goodness, this is fabulous, dark delicious and harassing in mood. Kudos my dear Tristan.

        • Tristan Robert Lange

          Teddy, I love that you felt the darkness delicious! It is, isn’t it though? 🤣. That’s exactly the atmosphere I hoped it would deliver. Grateful for your kind words, my friend. ⚗️🕯️🌑🙏

          Deliciously occultish, and when set to music it pulls you into the beat and rhythm, couldn't sit still. Loved it!

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Bella, I love that you found it deliciously occultish…and I’m glad it pulled you into the rhythm, my friend. That’s a win-win in my book! Thank you so much for giving it a listen and for your support! ⚗️🕯️🌑🙏

                I absolutely loved this!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s powerful and haunting. The dark imagery and repetition create such an intense atmosphere. The theme of inversion and inner decay really struck me—it’s brilliant and gave me chills!!!! Very well written dearest Tittu 🌹
                A fave for sure!!!!

                • Tristan Robert Lange

                  Salvia, wow...thank you so much. I’m really moved that it struck you with that kind of intensity. Dark inversion/inner decay was exactly the heart of it, and I’m grateful it gave you chills in the best way. Yay!!! I hope it gives hope to those who feel lost in their own"dark alchemy" (whatever that may be for them). Truly appreciate you, dearest friend. ⚗️🕯️🌑🙏
