We Are Only Crows - Crowfall Fan Song

[Arawulf 1,338]

Playing and writing have been a hobby of mine since I was about 14. I wrote this yesterday and recorded this version using Garage Band on my MacBook Pro. The idea was to convey a feeling of the constant moving of time through the seasons, the realization of an epic battle, victory and then preparing to do it all over again. It's the endless, thankless cycle of war as champions of the gods.

Lyrics:

 

"We Are Only Crows"

Words and Music by Mike Joseph

V1: The springtime breathes life to the trees and the land
We seek out the place where we’ll make our stand
The mountains the hills, sing songs of new life
As we’re building our force for the strife
As we're building our force for the strife

V2: In the summer sun, by the sweat of our brow
We’re forging our forces to win this somehow
Sounds of the battle are echoing near
And we choose to stand with no fear
We choose to stand with no fear

Cho: As the hunger grows
We bring the fire and sword
For heaven only knows
We are only crows
We are only crows

V3: The leaves of autumn fall all around
Like the foes we have vanquished they lay on the ground
The ache in our bones, the chill in the air
Bears the warning that winter is near
Bears the warning that winter is near

(Chorus)

V4: Winter consumes like blistering wind
We know that this world will soon meet its end
We gather our plunder, we mend all our wounds
For we know we shall fight again soon
For we know we shall fight again soon

(Chorus)

Would you mind giving us the chord progression of the song?

It is really great, and I would love to do a piano rendition in the future if possible.

[Navtyr 315]

Where's the metal version?

[Arawulf 1,338]

Where's the metal version?

Still in the imagination of someone who wants to make one.

[zinnie 2,399]

Yep, need someone to make a metal and a dubstep version.

 

Go!

I was watching your Crowfall vids and then I saw you post that song.

 

It's a long shot but I reckon it would be awesome if they played your song in the credits.

If that's even an option ACE would consider, it wouldn't be cheap for them.

They would have to license the song from Arawulf, or buy the copyright for it.

[Noc. 804]

This is a pretty cool addition to the fan art space. 

 

Hopefully it'll help inspire more artists to add to it.

[ACarroll 8]
