Pyrrah began with founder, Dave Whelan in 2005. The band had gone through many member changes before it became a serious project. It was only after Dave met guitarist, George Matthew in high school that original song writing and searching for permanent members began. They went through many vocalists before finding the perfect fit, Christine P. Newman. As they were having difficulties finding a good drummer, they continued with song writing and during this time, Gary Effing Cancer of Creep Colony offered to help the band by contributing drum tracks to their upcoming EP. His work can be heard on the songs, “Bestial Plague” and “Human Debris.” Christine and a friend found drummer, Dave Gouk at a local show and as of June 2007, the band had solidified their line-up for the first time and began to work on their EP entitled “Eternal Cremation.” Recording began in late 2007, and was completed by early 2008. Since, Pyrrah has played shows with legendary death metal bands Incantation, Estuary, Funerus, Lapidate and many more. During the summer of 2008, Dave Gouk had to leave the band for personal reasons and the search for a new drummer began once again. In early 2009, after much searching, the band has once again solidified its line-up with the addition of drummer Glennmar Miculob. They are currently working on new material.
Sleepwalkers
Pyrrah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The graves open up
Lifeless cadavers roam the earth
To take their revenge
Tormented souls without hope
No possible escape
A terrible fate they must lead
But they do not complain
The town sleeps most calmly
Unknowing, full of bliss
The room might reek of death
Yet they sleep in peace
Gasping for a final breath
Awoken savagely
Staring in death?s cold eyes
Torture and let bleed slowly
These are the dead
Arisen from eternal sleep
They are the sleepwalkers
Not a scream, not a sound
Lungs ripped out of sleeping bodies
The art of silent slaughter
They want nothing, but to harm
Get revenge on the human race
For all its evils
Torture and let bleed slowly
These are the dead
Arisen from eternal sleep
They are the sleepwalkers
As warm blood hits the ground
Life leaves drop by drop
Nothing left but an empty carcass
To one day join the sleepwalkers
Sleepwalkers of the night
Eternal and forever there
They will not stop killing
Until we are theirs
We are theirs
We are theirs
We are theirs
We are theirs
The lyrics of Pyrrah's song Sleepwalkers depict an eerie and terrifying scene of the dead rising from their graves to seek revenge on the living. The opening lines set a desolate tone with the image of "nights cold and grim" and "lifeless cadavers" roaming the earth. The sleepwalkers are tormented souls without hope, unable to escape their terrible fate. They seek revenge on the human race for its evils, silently slaughtering sleeping bodies without a scream or sound.
The contrast between the peaceful sleep of the town's inhabitants and the gruesome actions of the sleepwalkers highlights the sense of danger and unpredictability that pervades this song. The sleepwalkers are unstoppable, driven by their thirst for revenge and the desire to harm the living. The imagery of warm blood hitting the ground and life leaving drop by drop is visceral and unsettling, driving home the horror of the sleepwalkers' actions.
Overall, Sleepwalkers is a haunting and atmospheric song that uses vivid imagery to create a sense of dread and terror. It is a warning of the dangers that lurk in the night, and a reminder that even the dead can rise again to seek vengeance.
Line by Line Meaning
In nights cold and grim
During the night when the weather is cold and unpleasant
The graves open up
The graves that contain the remains of the dead open up
Lifeless cadavers roam the earth
These corpses that were once living beings move around without any life in them
To take their revenge
To get back at someone for the wrong that has been done to them
Tormented souls without hope
These unfortunate beings are suffering greatly and have lost all hope
No possible escape
There is absolutely no way for them to run away or escape from this situation
A terrible fate they must lead
They are doomed to suffer through this tragic fate
But they do not complain
Despite the pain and misery, they do not express any discontent
The town sleeps most calmly
The residents of the town are peacefully sleeping
Unknowing, full of bliss
Without any knowledge or awareness of the danger that looms
The room might reek of death
The room has a putrid odor of rotting flesh and death
Yet they sleep in peace
The people continue to sleep soundly and without any worry
Gasping for a final breath
Struggling to breathe for the very last time
Awoken savagely
Being suddenly and violently woken up
Staring in death's cold eyes
Looking into the eyes of death itself
Torture and let bleed slowly
Inflicting pain and allowing the suffering to continue over an extended period of time
These are the dead
These are the formerly deceased who have come back to life
Arisen from eternal sleep
They have been brought back to life from a state of never-ending slumber
They are the sleepwalkers
These undead beings are known as the sleepwalkers
Not a scream, not a sound
There is complete silence, with not even a single scream heard
Lungs ripped out of sleeping bodies
The lungs are forcibly removed from the bodies of innocent people while they sleep
The art of silent slaughter
The ability to kill without making a sound
They want nothing, but to harm
Their sole desire is to cause harm to others
Get revenge on the human race
They want to exact revenge on all of humanity
For all its evils
Because of all the wrongdoing committed by the human race
As warm blood hits the ground
When the blood of their victims spills onto the earth
Life leaves drop by drop
Their life slowly and gradually slips away
Nothing left but an empty carcass
All that remains is a lifeless body
To one day join the sleepwalkers
To also become one of the undead and join the ranks of the sleepwalkers
Sleepwalkers of the night
These undead beings only come out at night
Eternal and forever there
They will continue to exist and terrorize forever
They will not stop killing
Their murderous rampage will not cease
Until we are theirs
Until every living human has become their victim
We are theirs
We are destined to become their next victims
We are theirs
Our fate is sealed, and we are at their mercy
We are theirs
Our lives are in their hands and there is nothing we can do to stop them
We are theirs
We are completely helpless in the face of this insurmountable threat
